Welcome aboard Zisel!


Boss Lady Dragon of the Early Evening

I'm not going to bot anyone for this first battle unless things start to get ugly. I want to see how things go and get a feel for how people work together in battle before taking over their characters. Normally, though, in battle I do give at least 24 hours before taking over. Outside of battle I give up to 48 hours before taking over, when necessary.

Zisel, excellent. When I'm ready I'll make an introductory post specifically for you as a cue to make your initial post. Prior to that, I'll message you privately to work out any details.

Sounds great! I'll keep my eyes peeled

Welcome aboard, Zisel!

GM, Mirri had it right - I've just been completely out of it lately. I think my headspace is getting back to the point where I can resume my usual posting rate, though. I know this looks bad, and I'm sorry for the delay.


Welcome back. Hope things get better for you soon.


Boss Lady Dragon of the Early Evening

Glad to have you back, Theora.


Boss Lady Dragon of the Early Evening

Just a heads up that the next couple of days are going to be very hectic for me, so my posting might be low. I will try extra hard to get Zisel's intro up tonight now that you guys are done with the battle, but if it doesn't happen tonight I will made damn sure it happens tomorrow. Thank you for your patience.


Game left due to change in work situation

Nooo worries. I'm just excited to be here, and I've been enjoying getting a feel for how you all run things.


@DM Twilight: Good luck, and much thanks for all the effort your putting into the game, I appreciate it.

@Zisel: Our way of running things is very simple actually; we've got two scoundrels out to satisfy their greed, and three people who honestly want to do the right thing....one of them happens to want to make a legendary fable out of the whole event as well.


Boss Lady Dragon of the Early Evening

Thanks guys, and it's my pleasure :)

Woo! First post in! I am excited!


Apologies for the lack of posts I'll get one up as soon as I put some food in my belly.


Boss Lady Dragon of the Early Evening

Sorry guys, still having hectic times. I have to run a couple of errands but will be posting when I get back!


Question about the map, I don't see any enemies is this intended?

Oh and there is a slip up from my side, I seem to have put "skill point" in the favored class bonus section of the character profile, this is likely because I copied the template from another character of mine. At the moment I only spent 8 skill points this level but with the extra one from favored class bonus they would be 9(The profession skill, was a free first level only skill point the previous GM told us to add) can I switch the favored class bonus to health point instead as I don't see any other skills I'd want to give Lars.


Boss Lady Dragon of the Early Evening

The enemies have not been spotted yet, so they are not on the map yet. You are not sure what hit you, or where it came from.

As for your profile question, I'm a little lost on what you're talking about but ultimately I think you're asking if you change a skill point for an extra hp, and if that is the case, no you may not.

No, I am talking about Favored Class Bonus which I forgot to add when I made the character, if I had intended for it to be a skill point you would see ten skills instead of nine in the character profile,

If you'll allow me I would like to make the favored class bonus a health point instead of a skill point I never spent in the first place.


Boss Lady Dragon of the Early Evening

Yeah ok, cool


Much thanks GM, I apologize for being such a bother.


Boss Lady Dragon of the Early Evening

No problem.

Sorry guys! I'll post soon as dinner is done! Busy day! Apologies if I'm holding things up >_<

I've had a rather rough few weeks. My home situation is growing ever more hostile due to a particular family member moving back in, and I've found out that I won't have my job much longer due to there being no funding for it. So I'm looking for a job and a house, both of which are pretty unattainable right now - I can't get a home loan because I have no reliable income, and I can't get a job because I'm inexperienced in everything that's hiring. I've been stressed to high heaven at work, and when I get home, I've wanted to do nothing but sleep.

I'm still around, but I'm pretty absent right now, and trying to get my life back on track, and to not post when I'm feeling so depressed (which is pretty frequently). Please be patient with me. I'm trying to work my way back into everything.

That sucks to hear Theora, I hope things end up calming down a bit for you...

Handle the important things first, we'll all be here!

And if you need to rant about life, what better place than a discussion board for a campaign? :)


I hope things work out for the best Theora, take all the time you need as Jamarcrus said we'll be here.


I too, do hope that things get better and that you find an adequate job and living space. Good luck.


Boss Lady Dragon of the Early Evening

Best wishes, Theora.

I already rant too much in some of my other games. It's a bad habit I'm trying not to bring here. >.>

Oh god whoops, had a strange weekend. Posting soon.


Boss Lady Dragon of the Early Evening

Birthday yesterday, was up until nearly 5 am. Sleep deprived as the wee one got up at 8:30. Will post after more sleep.


Happy B-day!

Boss Lady Dragon of the Early Evening

Thanks guys! Updates might end up waiting until tomorrow, I got about a 45 minute nap but then had to go take my mom to a doctor's appointment. I'm just not feeling super coherent today.

Oh, after I made my character it was brought to my attention that Nordstrom is, in fact, the name of a clothing store... It's new to my city and I had no idea. I was just looking for thematic last names >.< don't judge me!

No judging, actually I wouldn't have known if you didn't tell me ;p

Apparently its like this huge ass chain and I just had no idea. Only got one here and it's on the other side of town. I'm just gonna roll with it and now Zisel is suddenly all about high fashion.

Can't find anything in the rule book that says an adventurer can't be chic ;p

Ill get a proper physical description for Zisel up ASAP. I'm actually horrible at describing my own character's physical appearance, so I'm going to get my more aesthetically inclined writer partner to help me out >.> Part of my struggle is I try to downplay their looks more than I intend in an attempt to be humble about them. But changelings are apparently drop-dead gorgeous and she's got charisma coming out the ears.


Boss Lady Dragon of the Early Evening

I've had am incredibly long, stressful day. I will try to update tonight after I've eaten and relaxed a little, but it will most likely be tomorrow.


Write only if its fun! If not wait till tomorow!

Thirded. Take a mental wellness day if you need it; gods know I do it enough, I can't judge. Gotta look after yourself!

GM, I'm a little confused.

Core Rulebook wrote:

The ready action lets you prepare to take an action later, after your turn is over but before your next one has begun. Readying is a standard action. It does not provoke an attack of opportunity (though the action that you ready might do so).

...
You can ready a standard action, a move action, a swift action, or a free action... You can take a 5-foot step as part of your readied action, but only if you don't otherwise move any distance during the round.

I don't see anything in there suggesting that if you ready a standard action, the only other action you can take is a 5-foot step. Am I misinterpreting something? If I'm stepping into difficult terrain, I'll use that as a move action, but I should still get to ready a standard.

Nope, you're right. I was going off the way another DM does things but I read through it more closely and consulted with a DM-friend. You're good. Will update again when I'm back home.

I'm off on another camping trip starting tomorrow.

I'll be back on Sunday.

@DM - For all combat just assume Jamarcus wants to wade in and punch things :)

Run if you meet a white stag while camping!


Boss Lady Dragon of the Early Evening

I will try to update tonight. I've been fighting a cold the last week and I thought I was feeling better, went out running errands today and even though I barely did anything I feel like total crap.


Relaxing is the best thing you can do to combat a cold. Take care of yourself.
