Tales from the City of Opal

Game Master Patrick Curtin

This is my homebrew world Arcaia. This particular setting is the free city of Opal, a lush equatorial city set on the edge of an immense jungle rife with undead , ancient civilizations, and dinosaurs.

DO NOT STICK FINGERS IN CAGE

Just a heads up folks. My life is again becoming interesting. I am hoping that soon it will settle down, but until it does I just want to warn you I might not be posting too well. I can't seem to find the time to get it accomplished. Please accept my apologies and I will hopefully soon regain a more settled state where I can post regularly in the near future.


Apology accepted.

No go kick RL in the tail! :)

Good luck monkey man, hope to see you soon.

Thanks for the heads up.

Hey all, just a quick update:

This week was the final week for my second job. I am at peace with this, and quite happy that several of my evenings are free again. I do hope to translate this into more time to post, we will see

My wife is likely going to be getting promoted soon. I am hoping this will not disrupt things too badly, but I will still be closer to my own computer should I have to start packing stuff up to move somewhere.

I hope to bring all of my games current this week, and I am still committed to them. Thanks again for your patience, it has been a very long winter.

I concur, you've kept your games going for years now and I'm always happy to have an update.

Whenever life allows it for you, we're here.


If I'm reading that right, it means things are looking up?
Yay!

Take your time Pat. We're waiting, and we don't mind a bit. :)

FYI-
I am now loading /teching/stage managing the latest youth theater show to cross my stage (Les Mis) also during university finals week.

Access to pc- Small
Time to access- Nil
Look on my face when this show is over- Priceless

Sorry in advance, will catch up when I can, but I figure this is a 2-day lighting programming show, plus the evening rehearsals.

Thanks all, Have a good week!

When did this start up again?


We're here, we're gone, we're back!

Then we're gone again, with no trace of our passing,...

We're like, Ninja PbP'ers! :)


DO NOT STICK FINGERS IN CAGE

I've been nursing it along. Bit by bit with the stolen moments on my phone [like now].

You still into playing Shiny hop aboard! Time to investigate House Akkavin!


Still trying to figure out if I should bring Vilya back, or start with the new character I sent you. Vilya's hard to play, but the new character is boring, and I don't know how to introduce either of them.


Hey Shiny!
I didn't recognize your 'real person' name avatar! ;P

I have a hard time believing you 'made' a boring PC.

Or maybe that IS the pc's cool catch? He/she's boring? Like an adventuring Ben Stein?!? ;)

Nice to see you again! C'mon, jump in, the PbP's fine! ;P

Nah. After 14 years of gaming, I'm starting to run out of ideas. There's only so many special snowflakes you can crank out before every character starts looking like Bob the Fighter.


Yeah, I understand. No matter how hard I try to make something 'different', I really do like playing a certain type of PC. And after a bit, no matter what class I'm playing, they start all looking VERY similar,... ;P


That, and I keep unconsciously making characters very similar to other characters from fiction.

I sometimes find characters don't really come alive till you've played them.

I do not consider that to be a bad thing. (Unless your making yet another Drizzt clone) ;P

We all get our inspiration from somewhere, mostly movies and books for me. Heck I got into RP'ing because I WANTED to play characters from TV, books and movies!

Heck, I'm cribbing the heck out of every actor whose ever played Sherlock Holmes in another thread right now. :)


DO NOT STICK FINGERS IN CAGE

Not to mention Harry Dresden ;)


Well, yeah. THAT goes without saying! ;)

What can I say? If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, I am a flatterer. Erer. (Whatever) ;P


Just FYI,
(Copy paste across all my PbP's) ;)

I will be out of town for over a week. And then going to have another (minor) surgery the week after.

I should have internet access next week, but will be limited on time. Will post as I can.

Thanks! And have a great week!

~Rags


Still on vacate.
Posting as able.

Happy 4th everyone!


Recovering pretty good. As long as the pain pills are kicked in. ;P

Will post as able. Should be fairly regularly now.

My hardest part will be when I am feeling better and go back to work. I have to remember NOT to do ANYthing for 6 six weeks.

I did not enjoy this so much that I care to repeat the experience. ;P

(Sigh) If I NEVER have another surgery, it will be too soon! ;)


DO NOT STICK FINGERS IN CAGE

Glad all went well Rags.

I am sorry that I haven't updated. I am feeling poorly, I am living through tourist season hell, and I am growing more and more disenfranchised with Paizo. How would everyone feel if I ported this game to another message board?

Not sure. Depends on the message board, I guess. I'm still not all up on this whole social media thing.


DO NOT STICK FINGERS IN CAGE

There are a few dedicated to PbP. I'm not sure, I know it would likely kill the games, but I am so supremely pissed off right now. I feel like I flushed $375 down the toilet with this Kickstarter for PFO.

What is the issue?

Regsrdless, I use Rpol.net for a couple of games I am running.


DO NOT STICK FINGERS IN CAGE

Didn't get the physical items for the second KS.

Can't vote the land rush

Probably won't get beta access.

Tried to email both companies to rectify issue, got nowhere. Multiple times.

Also very f&~*ing tired of emailing again and again to try and get this ironed out.

Meh. Don't mind me, I'm just kinda pissy.


Wow, yeah that would make me kinda p!$$y too. ;P

Sorry they hosed you Pat, I hope it gets worked out.
It seems like they usually do pretty well working out issues, (at least the few I've had) I'm hoping that this is just a glitch and they will get it worked out. Surely you can't be the ONLY one who got messed up on this KS deal?

Well, as I mentioned on the other thread, I wouldn't be against your game(s) moving to another thread to continue the game, but pretty much the only reason I have to look elsewhere is to keep playing with you guys. :)

You let us know what you decide Pat, and we'll go from there.

Just remember, I'm grateful that you allowed me to join your merry game(s), No matter what happens, I've had fun! And I am thankful for your online friendship. :)

Happy weekend all,

I like it. I use photobucket to store screenshots from battle maps or char. pics, and you can drop their link in the post, and have the image displayed, you can private message inside of a group post, asign multiple characters to one player, make npc profiles as gm, etc. Dice roller built in, lots of nice features, and free to boot.

All in all, I like it.


DO NOT STICK FINGERS IN CAGE

ok folks quick update: I have had my issues resolved, and I don't feel a need to disturb things by shifting message boards. Also, I am sorry things have lagged-I will restart tomorrow, time willing.

Hey, all. Just wanted to let you know that my wife passed away unexpectedly yesterday, and as a result I will be a bit scarce for a while. Feel free to DMPC San as necessary.


Heartfelt Sympathies Bryan.

My condolences Bryan. I cannot even imagine. We'll be here should you need us.


DO NOT STICK FINGERS IN CAGE

To everyone:

I am dropping this to apologize for my absenteism. I was dealing with a bunch of Real Life issues, and time never seemed to be there for me. I have a moment today, but I wanted to just say thanks for putting up with my absences.


Understood Pat.

Hope it's nothing serious. Good luck! See you soon! :)


I think I'm going to have to wait on rejoining this PbP just yet. Things are going... poorly. Having to scale back on my gaming time.


Sorry to hear that. But I certainly understand!
Hope you can rejoin us soon.

Good luck!


BTW,
I was in such a hazardous hurry this last weekend, (Attending Anime Convention, and going with family to beach in Florida) I forgot to notify all my PbP's that I am out of town this week. ;P
Sorry for unannounced absence, Will be returning this weekend, and should be back to usual insanity by Monday.

Thanks all, see you soon,

~Rags,


Sorry guys, been stupid, Busy that is. ;P

Work, home, Activities,... 8/

And University started back today.

So, business as usual! ;)


DO NOT STICK FINGERS IN CAGE

I am also apologizing for a lack of posting. Summer is a very busy season in these parts, but I think we are ready to start the next chapter. The mysteries of House Akkavin await!


Sweet!

I am currently reading the Skull and Shackles AP.
And here our PC's are currently standing on a dock.

Coincidence? I think not! ;)
