I did use a different version once but it requires an email address to forward the results to if I remember correctly, not so sure what I'm doing wrong with Invisible Castle though.

Okay about the stealth and perception checks.

I recently found out that I will be going out of town for work (Natchez, MS) for the entire month of May. I believe that I will be taking a laptop with me, but that is not definite yet. What this means is that there is a chance I will be posting less, or worse, that I will have to cease posting regularly for that time. I will have my Blackberry with me, so I can continue with that if need be, but of course that means no combat maps and whatnot.

I will keep you updated. I am committed to continuing this game as I think we're off to a good start.

No Probs. RL takes muchos precedence over this stuff. I'm sure we'll all be waiting for you here after you get back.

I guess that's just me.

Thanks for understanding, flash. BTW, whenever I see your name I always want to sing, "Flash!! Ah, ahhhhhh!"

Personally I'd go for,"GORDON'S ALIVE!!!" but I guess thats just me too...

(Although in saying that I do actually love that Flash Gordan Movie and and the Queen song rocks big time, so I'm not as worried by the Flash Gordan references as I used to be...)

:)

Just found out that I will be bringing a laptop with me to the South, so if the internet gods smile on me, I will be able to continue posting on a regular basis! Good news.

I will be keeping your current hit points and various conditions in my profile for reference purposes. Please let me know if there's something else I could add which might be useful.

So here's an idea:

In order to keep things moving I would like to institute the following rule. Please let me know what you think of the following suggestion:

Posting during Combat
If you do not post your intentions within 24 hours of my previous round post, I have permission to NPC you. This rule does not apply to weekends, as people tend to post less. If I post a round summary on a Friday, let's say, you won't be NPCd until after the same time on Monday.

Does that seem fair? I would like to institute this only because combat tends to make things draaaaaaag in a PbP setting.

It's only an idea. Feel free to shoot it down if you think it too draconian.

Best,

BrOp

Yeah that's all good. I know sometimes I can go a day or two without posting if I have a particularly long or draining day at work.
I have no problem whatsoever with DMPC, especially during combat to keep things moving.

I'm relatively new to pbp, and this is the first real combat I've been in. Do we all just post our actions for the round and then you apply them in initiative order?

Works for me

Once I get to know everyone's posting and combat habits it will be easier for me to fudge things, but at the beginning we all just have to be patient and wait.

Sounds fine to me.

Rhade leaps back out of the reach of the beast as he pulls another arrow out to fire at the monster but misses.

Roll 1d20+5+1 for 3+5+1 for total of 9 which couldn't possibly hit!

In which direction are you taking your 5' step?

Sitting in the Philly airport, taking advantage of the very civilized free WiFi. I'll be in the Deep South this evening and will let all of you know what my ISP situation will be like there. Ready to post the next round and hand out some bugtastic paralyzation!

P.S.: Yes, I know that carrion crawlers are Aberrations and not Vermin, but they are very insect-like.

Hi folks,

So the internet is a bit sporadic here, and I think my posting will be slowing down a bit. I apologize for that, and will try to post as much as I can manage. There's no internet connection where I am living, but there is at work, so I'll have to sneak it in a bit, or go to the local coffee shop where they have WiFi.

Best,

Rhade shoulders his bow and draws his blades intending to close in on the creatures rear and try and distract it from the others.

Would Rhade be able to attack in the same round as he changed his weapons?

30' back firing another arrow at it

Starting to smell like TPK ;)

Ouch! That's either some hefty Fire Resistance, hefty DR or Spell Resistance that stupid thing's got goin' on there! :(

Heavenly Fire (Su): Starting at 1st level, you can unleash a ray of heavenly fire as a standard action, targeting any foe within 30 feet as a ranged touch attack. Against evil creatures, this ray deals 1d6 points of fire damage +1 for every two caster levels you possess. Against good creatures, this ray heals them of 1d6 points of damage +1 for every two caster levels you possess. A good creature cannot benefit from your heavenly fire more than once per day. Neutral creatures are neither harmed nor healed by this effect.

It's actually a much simpler explanation.

I read the part where Neutral Creatures aren't Healed, but somehow glossed over the "Not Harmed" bit. Teach me to read more carefully won't it!

Hey, would someone mind volunteering to keep track of the party kitty on their character sheet? I will assumed that all magical items that are found are held by individuals (who should mark them on their own character sheets), but the coins and stuff should just be noted in one place to avoid confusion.

Thanks in advance,

Rhade, if you look at the latest map you will notice that you are in its melee attack range, so you'll draw an AoO from the Carrion Crawler if you move back 30'. You can either Tumble back 15' or just take a 5' step back and fire your weapon. If you fire your weapon where you are now you will draw an AoO as well, of course.

Will have to remember that part!

I will, unless Ignacious the Coin Counter wants the job! ;)-

No prob. I have the Laptop in our Pen & Paper game, so I got voted as Adventure Chronicler/Treasure Keeper.

Red Hand of Doom. But we've severely fncked it up. Just playing it out now. Then we start Rise of the Runelords.
We play once a fornight, rotating with V:tES (Vampire Card CCG)

FYI: Still waiting on Zo, Father Meghdad, and Ignacious to post their actions for this turn in the IC thread.

Sorry for the delay, My GM was on vaca this week and I have had to work 7 days straight over mothersday weekend with end of the period invintory. Didn't get much PC time or sleep the past few days.

FYI: If any of you would like you can follow me on twitter at http://twitter.com/BrandingOpp. If you let me know you are following, I will post when I do major updates to our IC thread and such. That way you won't have to check the Paizo boards all the time.

Just wanted to clarify your note in the main thread. When using perception checks we need to be specific on how we are investigating so you know how to respond in your post. Is that what you ment by:

Remember that since Spot and Search are not one skill, you have to specify if you are searching for something in your "flavor" text/

This makes sense to me but I'm under that impression that the spell detect magic makes items glow to the casters sight. In effect making a beacon to items that have a magical enchantment or effect tied to them. Obvioully if they cant be seen then the cant be detected so I felt my post was clear that I was glancing about the room seeking anything that would be glowing because of the spells effect.

I hope that answers your question. Please let me know if it doesn't.

Questions clarified, we are on the same page.

Sorry about my absence in the last few days folks. Just got back from a month-long business trip and am resettling into home life again. Will resume regular posting when I have successfully rebooted.

Best,

Sorry about my absence in the last few days folks.

Feel free to advance the storyline at any time. Otherwise you force me to advance it, and you might not like that. Heh, heh.

I'm out of town for the weekend, so there might be no updates until Monday. Hope everyone has a good weekend.

I've been out the last 2 weeks with spinal bacterial menangitis. Will post soon if it's ok.

Holy crap that sounds serious! How are you doing?

Hi Mark, hope you're better.

Just a quick game note: where did the paladin get the +1d6 to damage vs. undead on the smite evil ability? I can't find it anywhere, so I left it out. If someone can show it to me we can put it back in.

Also a note to everyone. I'd like to stick with the current Beta rules until we convert to the final PFRPG rules after GenCon. So as to not have to revamp all the stats between now and then I am ignoring anything revealed in the Paizo blog or the messageboards.
