Nace after Miyuku fires

We don’t have anyone with Diplomacy, do we? Costin is good at Bluff, but I’m not sure how we lie past this.

If I’m looking at things right, there is no way for Tragon to engage the croc in melee, correct? And I am unaware of what is going on with Jakun?

Also, Tragon, you are under fire a ways down from the corridor. There is a large very crocodilly on the loose in that area now. We are in combat, so we will have to unspool all of these things once I have time to sit down

My bad. Somehow I knew, but then forgot, that we were in initiative.

I love Nola, but never been for Mardi Gras. Seems kinda crazy to me. I like the quiet season.

I've been to the French Quarter twice in the last few years. Let me know if you want restaurant or activity recommendations!

We may just need a nudge that will push Coyote in our direction.

Sounds like reverse psychology. We should definitely split the party.

Do we even know how to find that fey?

Same

Thank you for the Christmas present!

Ooh! A present!

Is the transfer enchantment device bankable for future use? Can it be used more than once?

That’s a completely valid line of thought. Best cantrip for real life.

We are second level, not first!

I saw that! I’m cautiously curious, given how much staff BioWare has canned lately.

Do a coin flip, but don’t look at the result. Pay attention to which result you subtly find yourself hoping for, and go with that.

You mean how they plan to access the mine?

I think at this point that' sa fairly open secret. It's more of a race at this point. So yeah I'd say we inquire.

Without telling him that we already found a door, of course. :)

I’m not sure how we could ask that without tipping our hand.

Do we want to see if this guy knows about how the orcs access the mine? Or will that tip our hand?

Were we not going for the nonlethal CDG? Just tying them up? How confident are we that we could gag them before one of them yells?

CH-- which one do you like better?

I’m partial to tatted guy - like Treppa said, he would bring some energy to the party. You would just need to develop his motivation.

But I like the old timer too if you go that direction.

I’ll try and come up with a good segue to attach you to them. If you have any questions about making a character, feel free to ask.

I've got a few questions... Bloodlines & Black Magic is kind of a mess, and I'm getting a little lost navigating the PDF (I ordered a print copy, but it's going to take forever to show up). Mainly, though, I want to make sure whatever I build a) fits into the "vibe" of the game, and b) fills an unoccupied slot in the party. I've got a couple potential ideas, but I'm not sure how viable they are. Any particular builds you're looking for?

The vibe is basically ‘secret world beneath ours’ . There are a lot of strange things out there, and many of them have sharp teeth.

I agree the book is a bit of a hot mess, but we’re all adults here. We can kludge the rules as we go.

As for unoccupied slot? That’s harder to quantify. If you wanted to try a more street kid/rogue/trap monkey sort of thing, I think those skills could come in handy

Nace is an investigator with bonuses to trap finding/disable device up the wazoo.

I think there are lots of directions a new character could go.

I may need a little bit of a recap to jog my memory on what we’re doing.

I’d be down with adding 1 or 2. Smaller is better for this sort of game, but 3 is very small!

I’d be on board - as long as you’re not overextending yourself!

Understandable. There is only so many games you can keep afloat at once - as an adult with responsibilities.

Thanks for this one! It was a good exercise for the imagination.

You said you would be okay with your contact, so I figure I am rolling with the direction we went - Raptor going with the others.

He got off easy. I had half a mind to make it a baby shower instead of a birthday party.

In that case it wouldn’t be. But to our knowledge this was just a guy sitting at a desk.

For once, maybe we won’t have to go full murderhobo right out of the gate!

I must have gotten confused. I don't think it's a good idea to have anyone off on their own.

Hmm. Looking at the posts, it looks like we worked out Raptor and Jay going one way, and then Danny, Onyx, and Figment going another. Is that the right mix?

Yeah, it was good. I had fun.

I did not need to go back to Disney World so soon (especially in July), but it's family, you know.

I am around and did enjoy the campaign, but I can understand if it's too much on your plate on the moment.

Good to dot. I have to admit that I do not have the time or mental energy to revive this at the moment, as much as I love the campaign.

Thank you! I thought I had given appropriate heads-up messages on my games before I went, but apparently I missed a few.

Anyway, I survived the Florida heat, and managed to not even get a sunburn.

Thank you for covering, Treppa! I will mark off the CLW on Costin's sheet. Keeping folks in the fight is effort well spent.

If you’re keeping it going, I will keep checking in!

Let's make it a party.

Also, back when we got all that stuff, I put a group loot section on Raptor’s sheet and copied it all there. It is admittedly a low-effort solution, but I was trying to make sure it didn’t get lost!

Who do we want watching Figment - Danny or Raptor?

Hi Gay!

Thank you all for this blog.

I can ping her out of game.

Next up: “I Can’t Believe It’s Not Rice!”

Probably a combination of the unfamiliar ruleset and the pace of PbP.

Of course - making decisions like this in a PbP is especially difficult, because bouncing ideas off each other takes a long time. (At a table, it could be resolved in 15-20 minutes of conversation.)

To the point at hand - I'm inclined to take what we can carry easily and call that good enough.

This seems like we are doing a lot of speculation. Do any of us have the knowledge skills to get a sense of what is worth taking? This is outside Raptor’s expertise.

You’re in!

I’ve been letting this be a bit of a hiatus, since Tilnar was away, and I knew you and Patrick were occupied. I’m hoping to get us moving again this weekend.

*Sees angel-shaped bat signal in the sky*

I did share such a server previously. The server owner has previously shared it publicly, so I will share it here again.

I’m on Discord a lot more than I’m on Paizo these days, so I will check out Gwenn’s server!

Costin is leveled up to 5.

HP: 1d3 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 3 + 2 = 7

I’m going to look through this tonight and level up Costin. He didn’t have the same shopping needs because he hasn’t gotten that much stuff since joining as a new wealth-by-level PC.

Dern is going “nova” on that check! I checked my sheet and noticed all sorts of things he has to help interact with xenophobic humans. Reading my character sheet - a truly novel idea!

I had so much fun replaying in Legendary Edition!
