He is quite aware, he didnt tell anyone.
Also he did mention taking something.
You told the others you could use a kopesh. You never told me you were taking it. I need to know, for certain, what you are taking and what you are leaving in place, please.
I am taking the Khopesh. Will that suffice for Bastion?

It will. Please note in your inventory you have a masterwork khopesh (an exotic, one-handed melee weapon).
Jaja
I don't know how often I will able to post this weak, as I have exams.
I appreciate the warning. If need be, I'll take over your character for an action or two.
Hey, all. Sorry for the delay in moving onto the next section of the tomb. The snow fall here has ruined my morning. I'll be posting this afternoon.
what kind of role would I need to cause my shieldbug to do parthenogenesis ?
That would be long term and involve a lot of research and experimentation.
That sounds really cool.
Lilia and Tobias: I just did a little work on making the Alchemy Manual sourcebook work with Krystallos.

For alchemical items, we'll be using the variation on "Spontaneous Alchemy" I outline there. Any formulas not in the Alchemy Manual I will make up for you.
Nice you guys can become Full Metal Alchemists.. Which means I should Aspire to be ARMSTRONG (flex)
As people probably know, I've removed Bastion from the game due to a comment he made. I believe this was the right course of action and stand by it. Tobias did not and has removed himself from the game, which I consider a loss but it is his decision.
So, what would the rest of you like to do? The loss of two players is a serious blow to a PbP campaign still early in. I understand if you would prefer to cut it clean.
I have no problem continuing to play. The only thing is that if we are to continue on with only 3 players I'd request the chance for a minor rebuild so that I can cover some of what has been lost.
I would like to continue as well. Maybe you could recrute some new players, while we do the between tomb stuff(like crafting and research), after we finished this one.
I'd like to recruit new players once we're between tombs. Doing so now wouldn't make sense.
Gil, how would you like to rejigger? My thought is I allow each of you to raise a single attribute to 16 (your choice as to which) and rejigger based on that.
I need to swap some traits and skill points so I can pick up disable device. There may have been something else but it escapes me at the moment.
I'd allow that.
Gil, Dorian and Lilia: You may each do the following:
1. Raise a single attribute that is below 16 to 16.
2. Swap out your traits (but not your feats).
3. Rejigger your skills. You cannot get rid of a skill you have already used ICly but you can lower it if needed.
I plan on NPCing Tobias, btw, so he'll still be there to disable devices until the end of the tomb - at which point we'll recruit a new player who specifically needs to fill that niche.
Cool?
Has Dorian also left? And I'm going to look at picking up a drawback too.
He hasn't posted. I'm hoping the holiday weekend just ate him. And a drawback is fine.
I haven't posted in the game because there was nothing to do. And, I didn't want to get involved in the kerfluffle.
Dorian's Charaisma will go up to 16. That changes his Panache to 3, etc.
Lilia could take care if traps and locks. I would trade swim(I will probably not need it soon) for disable device and raising dex to 16, I would take the ranged support as both of you are close combat fighters.
I'll agree to those changes for all three of you.
Alright that gives me Disable Device at +6 and I can disarm magical traps. No other significant changes (I think Kn: local and appraise go up by 1).
Okay. I'll give you a day to consider the changes and be sure you're good with them. Then we'll continue. Thanks!
@JGray: How do spellcraft and magical traps interact?
Lilia: You would need to see the effect of the trap in order to use Spellcraft on it. Alternatively, you would need to use detect magic on the trap and the study it using Spellcraft.
Man...
If this thing kills me I'm rolling a fighter.
Hang in there. You've done some pretty massive damage to it already.
At the very least it'll end up with an awful case of indigestion.
Dorian and Lilia: if it comes down to it, don't hesitate to get out of there to save yourselves. We've only done about 35 damage so far which means we've still got a ways to go (I think).
if I have to Lilia could kill it with 1-2 damage per round while running away, I only has a land speed of 10
Well it's liable to finish me off before then given that I'm currently glued to it. So don't put yourselves in a bad spot on my account.
I didn't put a full-strength CR 4 creature up against a party that's down a man. I promise.
In the meanwhile, why don't we discuss replacements. Do we want to recruit one or two characters? What abilities/skills/niches would you like the new character(s) to bring to the party?
I will say after this you'll all be working for the Breaker's Guild under Gil's supervision.
a healer would be good
Seconded, a healer would be nice in the future.
I also think we could stand to have some more ranged power and we also need someone with good skills to replace Tobias.
I'll third for a healer.
Sorry, guys. My well pump died today which means I've had no hot water. Or cold water. Or any water. That and a few other things have put me off my GM game for the day.
Good luck getting everything back on track.
I hope you will get water again soon.
Thanks. The plumbers worked until almost 9 but we got a new pump installed.
Sorry. Between family, snow and the new book coming out this weekend's been a mess. We're back up and running now. Later today I'm going to put out a recruitment call for one to two more players with an emphasis on healers and knowers.
will the burning cockroaches ignite oil it I throw it at them?
Hello everybody, I'm excited to be part of such an interesting game! What should I know about your characters and what's going on?
Seeker, welcome aboard.
Summary:
Long ago, the ancient Citrine city of Shibbati was ground zero for a disease called the Plague of Madness. To protect the rest of the nation (and the world) the city was walled off. Fast forward to the present day - Citrine is no longer a kingdom ruled by a Pharaoh but a Sultanate ruled by a Grand Sultan. A new Shibbati has grown outside the walls of the original city. To raise funds, the Grand Sultan has ruled that the necropolis portion of Shibbati will be opened for limited exploration by adventurers. The hope is the influx of adventurers and sale of antique goods will stimulate the economy.
A cult of Opal (your own patron Totem) known as the Cult of Ausar the Green-scaled, controls the lottery which assigns adventuring groups to specific areas within the necropolis.
The PCs are a group formed by Bastion, a soldier from the Chalcedony Protectorate, for the purposes of exploring the necropolis. Their first assignment was to explore the tomb of a general who died before the Plague of Madness hit the city. They just entered the final chamber of the tomb but, unfortunately, Bastion was eaten by a Mimic and, so, Gil the Breaker is now in charge.
Howdy Seeker. Looks like we'll be braving the wilds together once again.
Hmm, interesting. I wonder if a tie in for Seeker could be that he went strait to the cult of Opal to have a friendly face in the city?
Possible. They would welcome you as a fellow Cleric of Opal but this cult is very different. Here, they wield political power (they more or less run the city) and they follow the ancient Citrine traditions (think ancient Egypt). And, of course, they are almost entirely kobolds.
I also believe Gil will be hiring. I think I can combine these two facts to come up with something to introduce you to the group.
