@Celeador It shouldn't be too hard of a leap to convince them, but good luck.

@Celeador Yeah that would be quite a commute. How has your search been there?

@Vulgar Yup, sorry wrong country. The spouse test isnt that hard as long as your not a creepy serial killer type ;)

I just sent you an email

@GM Armadillephant My Magus would be mostly defensive spells and very few attack spells.

This may be the noob in me, but how are we generating stats?

Just outside Portland in Vancouver WA.

I would be interested in playing, but admittedly I have never played in an online campaign before, but it does look interesting. I would probably want to play a magus serving the Brotherhood.

Life has hit our current gaming group hard with work promotions and moving away and now we have gone from 5 players down to 1. There is a potential that some may return at later dates if time becomes available. I am looking for 4 or so players to join. I host the games in my apartment in Vancouver WA. There are kids and cats present. My work schedule only allows for gaming on weekends and what we have been doing is playing on alternate Saturdays. The exact time frame for gaming will be determined once we can get some people joined up. I am also going to be leaving the type and content of the game up for discussion as well.

P.S. All prospective players must also be able to pass the "Spouse Test"
(Basically my wife will need to approve all prospective players)

Anyone interested please shoot me an email at jeremycar121 at gmail.com

I definately agree with you Arikiel, I feel I gave them fair and ample warning and they are still proceeding with the dragon hunt. I like the advice that you all have provided and have narrowed it down to a few options.

The dragon keeps them alive and sells them to a night hag to be used as souls in the soul trade. The main foe of the campaign are Daemons and the four horseman, so that would be a great way to introduce them. The daemons are more or less the Goauld.

I also like the idea that the dragon feels that his race is undefeatable and when she learnes of her brothers death, she captures them to learn what she can about their weapons, might throw in a dragonbane weapon for that and sets plans to kill the wizard and use the gates for her own purposes.

I am running a Stargate style campaign using Pathfinder rules and I have 4 PC that are currently 7th level. They are on another world and they recently ran across a young red dragon that actually started out as a random encounter and they lost some of their possessions. They decided to pay its tribute instead of fighting it. After learning more about the dragon they have learned that it has a bigger sister that is tougher and meaner than he is. Since it was a random encounter I grabbed the young red dragon and adult red dragon entries in the bestiary. So its a CR 10 and a CR 14 monster respectively. They have decided to take them both out. Starting with the young dragon and then track down his sister to the lair and kill her. I warned them a few times that this may result in the deaths of their characters, but they are still making the plans to go through with it. I decided to give them a hand by having a powerful wizard give them a few items on loan with a stake in the dragons loot. I am pretty confident that they could kill the CR 10 dragon and not lose anyone, but I am afraid that when they go to take on the CR 14 dragon in her lair, they will be on fighting on the dragons terms and will get slaughtered. They do have very legitimate in-character reasons to go after them.

So I have come up with a few ideas for if they fail and would like some input or suggestions.

Option 1. One of more of them survive and happen to slay the dragon. Hooray! they get the loot and prestige of killing them.

Option 2. They all die. If it does come to a TPK and they all die, then they just simply roll new characters.

Option 3. They all die. The dragon doesn't finish them off but instead decided to capture and imprison them. I like this idea but I dont know why a red dragon would want to keep adventurers that killed her brother alive.

Option 4. Weaken them by lowering their HD or having them be wounded or something that would make them easier to defeat. I am sort of against this because not everything in the world can be defeated and the creatures around you don't ascend at the same rate with you. There are bigger, meaner, and tougher creatures no matter what level you are and I think that if I dumb them down, I might shoot myself in the foot with that philosophy and have the players think they can take anything on with little or no consequences.

I would love to have any other suggestions or options that anyone else may have.
