I had originally thought I wouldn't be able to start until the 15th, but I have all my stuff ready, so we can begin whenever everyone has checked in and introduced themselves on the gameplay thread.
Ayla Vivindor |
Did you need anything from me? Should I roll me Day Job yet?
GM Rinaldo |
Did you need anything from me? Should I roll me Day Job yet?
I'll get all that at the end. ;-)
Just waiting for the last player to check in. Since I originally had thought it would take longer to get started, he may not be checking the boards. I'll give him a little more time.
Ayla Vivindor |
Got it! Sounds good!
GM Rinaldo |
I'm going to give the last player until tomorrow to check in, then I'll call the alternate in. I hope to get started on Monday at the latest.
GM Rinaldo |
I've sent a PM to the alternate player; if I don't hear from them tomorrow, on Sunday I'll post an open call to fill the slot, and we'll start Monday one way or the other.
GM Rinaldo |
And we're off!
In case you didn't spot it, there is a link at the top of each page to my Maps and Images slide show. Currently it only has a picture of your esteemed Venture-Captain, but the combat maps and other important images will go there as needed.
Barbo Beezle |
She jumps up from her chair and points to the door. "Onward! To the Ivy District!"
Despite her enthusiasm, she doesn't actually leave until everyone's ready to go with her.
I'm just picturing Ayla frozen in this position during the rest of the conversation, literally stuck between her excitement and need to be polite.
Ayla Vivindor |
She totally does that! It looks as awesome as it sounds. Haha.
GM Rinaldo |
Due to the US holiday yesterday, I expect posting to be sporadic for some people, so we may be slightly stalled until Monday. I will be watching the thread, but be prepared for slow posting.
Ayla Vivindor |
Hey guys, just letting you know I've had a family emergency come up, and unexpected house guests. I will be unable to post Saturday. Hopefully, I should be able to post late Sunday night and again late Monday night. I will be able to post regularly by Tuesday. Sorry for holding up the game, and feel free to bot me as needed.
Thank you for your patience.
Ayla Vivindor |
So I accidentally put a happy face on the map somehow while placing my dancing lights sun, and deleted it. But after I closed the map I realize it might have been someone else, putting it there on purpose for the unseen servant? If it was, SORRY, it's my fault it's gone! I'd put it back if I remembered where it was...
Ayla Vivindor |
Sorry! My bad! Haha.
Ayla Vivindor |
I LOVE the way you RP your unseen servant, Barbo!

GM Rinaldo |
It was the traits I was missing ... I didn't know either of those. You might link them in your character profile for future GMs.
DC 20 at 3rd level is pretty impressive. Kudos! :)
Lilianna Thraller |
Thanks :)
I will do so, thank you for the tip!
Lilianna Thraller |
Is anyone seeing a downside here? Assuming 1) she isn't lying to us and 2) Skelg doesn't hate her guts, this seems to be an excellent solution to the issues we have been tasked to solve.
Barbo Beezle |
Seems good to me! He can divorce her after he's healthy if that's what he wants.
She might be tricking us to get close to him but... that's a risk I'm willing to take.
Ayla Vivindor |
How long has she been here? I got the impression it was a long time... Is no one curious why there was a ghoul under her bedroom who didn't eat her? And how she hasn't starved? Or frozen?
Cause Ayla's pretty sure this woman's a weirdo and a liar.
Egg Fu |
I don't know...the Ulfen remind me of Vikings and I think the Vikings had rituals like funeral barges...and if I recall correctly, I think some pharaohs were buried with their wives and retainers...so maybe this is similar?
Lilianna Thraller |
My guess is that a big part here is why the ship is in a tapestry. We might be able to ask her before we leave! As well as any other questions we have about the history of this event.
GM Rinaldo |
Congratulations! You achieved your primary goal of curing Skelg, and also the secondary goal of recovering the lantern for the society.
I will get your Chronicle sheets made up on Sunday. Please provide me with the information to fill them out:

What a fun game! Thanks for running it!
GM Rinaldo |
You're welcome! As a season 0, it can be a little sparse, so I tried to spruce it up a bit where I could. There are quite a few unanswered questions; I made up reasonable answers for some, but others I just have to shrug and say, "It's a mystery...".
I do want to say that in the many times I have run this, this is the first time I have had anyone play the drum on the deck. The scenario actually says that if anyone does so and succeeds at a DC 13 Perform check, the zombies in the hold begin rowing and won't do anything else as long as the drum beat continues. I thought Ayla might keep playing and actually make that happen this time. :-)
On the other hand, I was a little worried that Ayla was going to piss off Natalya and have to fight the 5th level sorceror. She has a couple of spells that could have been very bad news for level 1 characters ...

They really pit a 5th level sorcerer against a 1-2 party? That would have been rough!
Ayla Vivindor |
Well, I'm happy to be both the surprising one AND the thorn in everyones side. Haha. Thanks for putting up with her, everyone!
GM Rinaldo |

You're not meant to fight her, but her stats are provided in case you either just come in guns blazing or totally piss her off.
Barbo Beezle |
Shoot, I thought we were just dodging the boss fight! That would have been very rough.
I have really liked the season zero scenarios so far. They have a different tone than the modern ones. Though, it's all been on PbP and the GM's have inserted extra fluff I think. You did a great job at making it interesting and fun!
GM Rinaldo |
1 person marked this as a favorite. |
Just waiting on Geico and Krennel to post their details so I can do the chronicles all in one go.
GM Rinaldo |
So I was really hoping to get Geico and Krennel's information so I only have to do it once ... if I haven't heard from them by tonight I will try to get the rest of yours done.

Sorry, I just realized I never posted in the Discussion thread. My apologies for slowing things down.
GM Rinaldo |
I'm at work now, and fairly busy this morning, so I will get these made up either this afternoon or evening.
GM Rinaldo |
Chronicles are done. Download them from here, then please post when you have done so. When everyone has theirs, I will delete the shared folder.
Thanks for playing, everyone! If you would like to request a scenario, click on my profile link to see my "Ready to Run" list and post a request on my sign up sheet.
