Hello, good and excellent people!

Can we please cancel my AP subscription? Thanks so much!


Hello, folks!

I've been sated with the completion of the Mummy's Mask set. Can we please cancel my PACG subscription for the time being?

Thanks for your help! =)


It's my name, yo. The avatar looked goofy and humorous which is why it done got picked!


Hello, wonderful Paizo people!

Could you please kindly discontinue my AP subscription? Wrath of the Righteous should tide me over for quite some time.

Thanks!


You are magnificent and wonderful. Thanks very much!


I didn't realize it until after I'd gotten through to the order confirmation (my fault entirely) that my order would be split in twain. Order numbers are 1926665 and 1926664.

Is there any way to hold 65 and ship it with 64? If not, no big deal, but it'd be nice if I could avoid paying for shipping twice.

Regardless of the outcome, thanks for your help!

Let's wait until Sunday and I'll try and get everything together so we can jam on into character creation/primer and perhaps the campaign's inciting incident once MerloMcJerknut is toast.


male humanlike humanoid Barbarian 1/Cloistered Cleric 5/Technomancer 5

No idea. I was hoping we had enough adventure left at this point to mop it all up in person next sunday. or do you think we need to advance a little bit further?


male humanlike humanoid Barbarian 1/Cloistered Cleric 5/Technomancer 5

I check it nearly a dozen times a day!

Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego is animated(right?).

I couldn't agree with you more.

Ahhh... there was a cartoon version of WitWiCS, but I was refering to the older, gameshowish version. The cartoon was pretty great too though.

Pretty sure Jennifer Hale did the voice for the older sister if memory serves...


Hear, hear to all those previous mentionings of Firefly!
In addition,

Cartoons
Transformers: Beast Wars
Mighty Max
Voltron
ThunderCats
Cowboy Bebop

I think Beast Wars is possibly my favorite cartoon in all of Ever.

How's your back my friend? Hope it's doing at least a bit better.

Yeah, it's a bit better. I've been icing it for 20 minutes, then putting a heating pad on it for 20 minutes and repeating the cycle as soon as I get home from work. That and the muscle relaxants have it feeling quite a bit better, but the drive to and from work is heinous. It's only a 20 minute drive but it does a horrible number on my back. So, we are unfortunately going to have to reschedule the joining of the Triforce.

However, I have finished the traits for the campaign and will be emailing them to you chaps within minutes of this posting. Next up will be a brief introduction to the nation of Skorvia and what house rules I'll be implementing.


male humanlike humanoid Barbarian 1/Cloistered Cleric 5/Technomancer 5

Alright boys, pray my back gets better or else. Cuz if it doesn't, there's no way I can drive 2 hours to lancaster and spend most of my time there in unforgiving chairs in 2 days' time =\

Did you take the day off work?

Negative. I am at work and my office chair makes my back angry. But I can manage.

Heck to the YES.

Get this.

I walked.

Down the stairs.

Last time this happened was about 2 years ago when I was digging holes up near Harrisburg for a shady cable company. I had apparently strained my back enough on the job that my back went when I lifted the toilet seat back at the apartment. A humiliating injury, to say the least.

This time, though, is just plain dumb.


male humanlike humanoid Barbarian 1/Cloistered Cleric 5/Technomancer 5

Sorry I haven't gotten you fellah's the campaign traits for our next adventure yet. I threw my back out yesterday and spent the evening in exceedingly great amounts of pain. It's actually a little worse at this point, so if you boys wouldn't mind tossing up a prayer or twelve, I'd be much obliged =\


male humanlike humanoid Barbarian 1/Cloistered Cleric 5/Technomancer 5

So I was thinking what we could get BJ for his birthday and am wondering if these slippers of spider climbing would do. I mean, every character he makes has to have them... why not give him the slippers in real life?


male humanlike humanoid Barbarian 1/Cloistered Cleric 5/Technomancer 5

Here's a CabinCon teaser for you fellahs. I just finished stating this friendly looking fellow out. He has 20 class levels and 2 templates. I like 'im!


male humanlike humanoid Barbarian 1/Cloistered Cleric 5/Technomancer 5

Waiting is fine. I've got a committee meeting from 8 until ?? tonight, so if you guys jump into it while I'm there, please rock the casbah (at will) with ol' Omen.

Like "I move from D6 to F9 and cast sleep on the kobold in G5."

Thought this might be a helpful, albeit simple, tool to aid us in our pbp'ing.

Here's the editable/viewable BattleGrid

Can we make it standard operating procedure that Rogan makes a perception check as soon as he enters a room/hallway? I'm sick of these easily avoided surprise attacks.

That's why 4th edition's introduction of "passive" perception (i.e. taking 10) is pretty handy. I'd be cool to say we're always taking 10 until we actively start scouring, and if we roll a 2 then, well you're just looking in the wrong place...

I am now leaving the office and shall return to our electronic woes when able.


male humanlike humanoid Barbarian 1/Cloistered Cleric 5/Technomancer 5

Gentlemen, I am stuck in the office until 9pm tonight. I will work on the battlegrid and the sharing when I get home.

Feel free to post lots in the meantime... the call volume tends to drop after 6 =\


male humanlike humanoid Barbarian 1/Cloistered Cleric 5/Technomancer 5

Hmmm... didn't realize I had to enable sharing. I'll take care of that when I get home. The filter here at the office won't let me access it =\


male humanlike humanoid Barbarian 1/Cloistered Cleric 5/Technomancer 5

I created a simple spreadsheet battlegrid with google's docs. I can't access it at work, but i could email it to myself as an attachment from home beforehand if it's up.

Alright. I'm here. Let's do this!


male humanlike humanoid Barbarian 1/Cloistered Cleric 5/Technomancer 5

1) I don't get an animal companion, I took a domain instead.
2) If Rogan gets an animal companion - go ahead and beef the crap out of it.
3) I don't think Ranger's animal companions are Druid Level = Ranger Level/2 anymore, I think it's Druid Level = Ranger Level - 4 (which is sweet)
4)House Ruling that to Druid Level = Ranger Level -1 or -2 is more sweet.

I am leaving now and will see you gentlemen very soon!


male humanlike humanoid Barbarian 1/Cloistered Cleric 5/Technomancer 5

That's it for me tonight, gents. I've got Bible Study until well after you fellahs are in bed. I might check a few times at work tomorrow, but apart from that, I won't see ya'll until it's face to face. Enjoy the level-up Steve. Catch you guys later!

Omen turns and walks back to stand beside Rogan, turning to face back over the clearing toward Ulizmila's rickety abode. "This one does not think that she is home, friend Rogan. Hrmmm... but this one is sure that she has one of the items we need."

He gazes over the unpleasant clearing.

"The light begins to grow dim. If you wish, we may look for the one called Ulizmila elsewhere or... hrmmm... we can linger a while longer in this... hrmmm...," his eyes roam around the view in front of them, "unpleasant place. This one... hrmmm... defers to you."

Background:

Delgras has devoted his life to defending his people and clan from its enemies. Most of his life has been spent fighting goblins, orc's and giants, but a few years ago on an extended campaign his group ran in to a group of Vrock's looking for easy prey outside the World Wound. The Vrock's caught the group unaware and they learned the hard way the danger of the Vrock's Dance of Ruin. The lightning bolt having incapacitated several of the less experienced members of the party before they really knew what was happening. The continued on for what seemed like hours and before it was over several of Delgras's life long companions fell. Having survived the deadly encounter he turned his focus on fighting the demon's of the World Wound, a trait he has now passed on to his sister's son Berrag.

While home for a short rest a little over a year ago, he was witness to Berrag hitting bottom. Delgras determined he would help Berrag recover and take control of his life. Using many of the contacts he had acquired over the years and calling in a few favour's he helped Berrag get the training he needed to truly hunt the demons in their homeland.
