Iron Gods FOC: Diamonds in the Rough (Inactive)

Game Master TheRiverOcean

The question is, do androids dream of electric sheep?

Not if Askra bashes their skulls in first. And then falls in love with them.

UPDATE
Sorry about the hiatus yall. I've just said goodbye to the place I called home for the last year =(. Packing and moving and such really takes a toll. Anyway this month I'll be a little busy moving back home and getting a job etc. I'll try not to go missing for longer than a week. Please bear with me!

Thanks!
TheRiverOcean

No worries TRO, take care of things and drop us a line when you're able to. Thanks for the update; was starting to worry a little bit!

Good to know. Good luck in the job hunt. We will be here when your ready.

Hokay...for loot we've got:

Tech Gear
White nanite hypogun (4 charges) - This does 3d8+5 healing per charge or Remove Disease per 5 charges.
+1 Inferno Pistol - Lazer gun?
Nanite Canister(2) - Basically batteries for nanotech weapons/items; one canister will provide 10 charges to such items.
White Access Card - It's a key. Not sure if it's useful outside of the crashed spaceship.
Gravity Clip (5 charges) - A gravity clip is a small, disc-shaped device that can be attached to any melee weapon. Once mounted, the clip modulates the weapon's mass on the moment of impact, via the manipulation of the gravity fields around the weapon. Each successful hit against a target consumes a charge from a gravity clip and causes the damage from the hit to resolve as if the weapon were one size category larger than its actual size. This effect does not stack with similar effects, such as those granted by the spell lead blades.
Magboots (4 charges) - These clunky-looking boots have powerful electromagnets built into their soles that activate and deactivate automatically as the wearer flexes her foot, allowing her to walk on a metal surface with relative ease in zero gravity. They grant a +10 circumstance bonus on all Climb checks made while scaling metal surfaces.
2 Arc grenades - Deals 5d6 points of electricity damage.

Other Gear
chain shirt
mwk spiked gauntlet
bedroll
cold-weather outfit
flint and steel
mwk backpack
rations (5 days)
traveler’s outfit
waterskin
winter blanket
11 silverdisks
262 gp

So far, Askra has expressed interest in the +1 Inferno Pistol and the Arc Grenades (2). Palomia wouldn't mind hanging on to the white hypogun but otherwise isn't particular about anything else. On the other hand, if someone else wants to keep the hypogun then Palo will look into picking up a Wand of Cure Light Wounds since she's the only one with a decent UMD skill in the party.

*edit* TRO...do we get to pillage Fijit/Jean/Nashara's stuff since they won't be with the party anymore? Hey...can't blame a girl for asking! ;)

Gwyndle still has those two timeworn flareguns and one more dose of hemochem, I believe.

If they'll fit him, Gwyndle would totally love those magboots. :P

Maybe give the grav clip to BoB?

Ladim can keep the pistol.

I'm thinking Askra already scored a mwk spike gauntlet - if this WAS the case, she'll give the initial one to Daisy as a present, and keep Meyanda's one as it is way more 'metal.

Just checking in; hope everyone is doing well! I also hope that we'll eventually hear something from TRO, though I'm happy to be patient here. Moving is a big enough hassle, moving from one country to another plus job hunting even more so! I just hope things are going well for him.

Yep, BoB is always around.

Same with me, I don't mind waiting. As a matter of fact, in a couple of days I'll probably be starting a campaign of my own, so I decided to inform you guys. I'll begin the campaign recruitment soon, as soon as all of the information I currently have in my head is properly put down to TEKNO-LODJIKAL paper. (AKA, wiki page.)

I'll update you as soon as I start that.

Sounds interesting...

Hey guys. How is everyone?

Good, just waiting to bring systems back online :)

Still here! Willing to wait awhile on this one to restart as it's been a lot of fun...*crosses fingers hopefully* :)

Nominally here, and waiting in another of TRO's games just as...something was about to jump out of a sarcophagus...

Everyone!
I liiiiiiivveeee!!!

All moved back home, got a job, back on the grind. it's been a ride haha. I'm really sorry I've been gone for so long! I've been a terrible GM, I know I know, my bad for real.

I'm back now and things are a lot different for me. I'm not living alone anymore, and my job is much more demanding. To be honest I'm happy to finally be able to spend time playing table top in real life. So I'm going to have to cut back on my GMing. I'm sorry for keeping you all waiting and for ending the adventure a bit shorter than expected. I wish you all the best of luck in future campaigns and all of your dice rolls! Happy hunting!

IRON GODS: FOC
You guys have really made my lonely times in a foreign country much more bearable. I've had a great time GMing for you guys and I've had a lot of fun with some of the shenanigans you guys have gotten up to! Thanks for being my players, and if fate allows, I hope we cross paths in the forums again =)

While I'm really sorry to see this game go (check the start date, we made it almost a full year!), I don't blame you for wanting/needing to cut back to focus more on RL things. It was definitely great while it lasted and I'm thankful to have been able to be a part of it :)

Awesome TRO. Glad to hear you are returned and that you are finding time for FTF play. Travel well!

@TRO - Oh, and can you move these to Inactive?

It's a damn shame to have things end here, but I'm sincerely glad that things are working out for you. Real life always comes first and in your case, things must have been especially stressful. Hope to see you (and everyone else here) around some time!

Well, I don't suppose those of us that are left would like to band together and request a new GM on the boards?

TRO, certainly sucks to see you go, but im glad life is picking up for you :) thanks for the help with the neat character concept.

That's a hella shame. I haven't had that much fun playing a character in a long time that I've seen with Ladim.

@Felicia, you're g&~#&#n right I'd want to continue. I'm assuming some of the others would be as well, or maybe someone would be willing to run the game instead? I can't, at the moment, but I'd love to continue.

I'm game to try and continue and find a new GM if others are. If not, well...there's always the Legendary Planet AP; I'm sure we'll start seeing a few threads recruiting for that within the next month or two ;)

I am not terribly optimistic about GM recruitment in general, but I'd certainly be up for it. More so if both Palomia and Askra are willing to give it a go - to be honest it'd feel weird without at least one of the original PCs being involved.

Were we at the end of the first chapter of the AP? Whether we were or not, it does feel like a decent spot for a new GM to pick up from. If we can get a decent summary of what happened throughout the game, it'd probably help the potential GM immensely.

The only thing that might be an issue is that BoB and I think maybe Felicia were built using some 3PP? Not all GMs are very accepting of those, so we would need one that is or some of us might have to rebuild a bit.

I have no idea if we were at the end of this first book or not, though :(

I don't know how many games you guys apply for or play in but most games going up on here now include 3PP and Gestalt seems to be the new hotness. I was in 12 games but with this one and another dying down to 10 and 2 or 3 of those look to be going as well. So time to pick up more games. I would continue if we found someone.
