Flash

Spoiler:

Looking over Cynthia's gear I see she only has one trait. Are we to create her a campaign one or have I missed something. Will need to think about a campaign one for her if you need the extra. Possibly something about the hard line she takes about taking care of herself over everyone else. Cheers

OOOOO... Tramompaline!

EDIT: This means that I am now going to pick up a trampoline for my kids from the shops. Be back soon.

I had a car that lost its brakes. It made driving an adventure.

Is it just IE or is it other Browsers as well? I'm assuming it's just IE unless you're posting from work or something.

What version of Windows and IE are you running?

No you eat it Sucky Sucko Head...

no camper will steal it. It's mine.

Flash, I hope you have a decent shopping trip.

Wow... no time yesterday and then I was soooo tired last night after I came home from Roleplaying that I went straight to bed (sorry Kristin). I think that's nearly a first for me.

So it seems I was a bit behind on the Thread (nothing new there).

Hope everyone has a good day. I'm off to take the kids to get Mummy a Christmas Present. Be back in a couple of hours.

Well Cynthia would love to explore the ruins. But at the same time she would still like to know what is happening at the Village as well. So tough decision. Not that she's particularly worried about the inhabitants per se, but she would still like the opportunity for revenge on the Spiders.

Considering that I've avoided Facebook entirely, your recollection is correct. ;)

I love the crap outta Facebook. I've reconnected with everyone from my high school chums to my AIT drill sergeant. It's a fantastic tool. And I even won a signed Core Rulebook on it!

Now if people would only stop sending me Farmville gifts or quit asking me to defeat the Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal on the MicroMMOs

I told you FB was good. :)

I am currently exploring ways to return to my former business. It may not eventuate, but my wife has given me the green light to try and make it work again. She's not happy about how much unpaid overtime I'm doing for the ammount of money I'm being paid and so has said she's willing to let me give my business another try...

Good for you! I'm kinda ambivalent about returning to food service, for reasons I'm sure you are well familiar with. My wife and I do have the goal of opening a bakery/catering service at some point in the future, so it will be good practice for running a food-oriented business. I'm just dreading riding herd on all those young n'er do wells that these businesses seem to attract. That and doing their shifts when they call in hungover ...

Sorry I missed you yet again last night, maybe we'll be able to catch each other tonight.

I finish at 3pm again tomorrow and have to pick the kids up from school again. I am going to try and get out at 2pm(ish), but we've all seen how well that's worked out in the past before right... :/

I should at least be able to get on on the weekend for a little while which will be good. I think I remember what you guys look like...

Good luck, Flash. I hope it works out.

By the way, the quick drake was inspired by your namesake. :)

I have both of those little suckers saved for posterity. I likes 'em I does. :)

Whatcha doin'?

Grats on the Core Rulebook win BTW! :D

Thanks!

I'm applying today for a management position in a local family restaurant chain. It's Italian-style food, and I'm sure I can land the job, it's just gonna be the old 'You're on salary so we ownz you biotch!!' kinda thing. Be interesting, that's for sure ...

Good morning, everyone!

I hope your day goes as well as mine is sure to. :)

I am "supposed" to finish at 12pm tomorrow, so hopefully it will be a good day... let's see how that pans out shall we?

I hope so. :S

Night all. I'm off to bed to wake up in under 4 hours for work...

True... ;)

ok people....entertain me dangit!!

Good morning, everyone!

I hope your day goes as well as mine is sure to. :)

I'll try to find some time later today to sort out the character info you want. However I am teaching later today and then out to the pub all evening for a game of Warhammer.

If you can promise to post a minimum of three times a week then I'd love you to be in. That is what I have said to the other players so to be fair that is the deal with both of the new players. As to your idea for a PC, I think that would fit the party well.

Vague Background Information

Spoiler:

The two players joining the game do not necessarily need to come from this region. In fact they will be arriving in game via Ravenloft, the Land of Mists, so can come from any of the known or unknown worlds. For that reason your PC can be first or second level. Your PC could be a sort of gypsy, a Vistani, from Ravenloft itself. Since they have Seers and Fortunetellers travelling about.

What kind of time frame are we looking at to have Characters done by?

Also, is it possible for you to summarise Character Creation rules in a Post for us so we don't have to sift through a bunch of Posts to find what we need?
Level.
Stat Generation.
Starting Gold.
Hit Points.
Traits or not?

I think these are the main Points I like to cover when creating a Character.

Cheers :)

Oh, man. I can just come back from school, hit this thread, and get a very complete picture in my head.

Happy Afternoon, folks. I'm celebrating with a muffin.

Mmmmm.

Muffin.

Muff...

FW. I'd be somewhat interested in this Game. I already have a fair few PbPs I am in at the moment, but only half a dozen of them are proceeding with any kind of frequency. My posting can get a little spotty though which would be a big reason for you to say no and which I fully understand. Some days I can get on and post with impunity but others it might be 3 days before I can check the Boards again.

One question I will ask now to get it out of the way:

Cheers

Flash, stuff for Cynthia's background.

Spoiler:

I'm taking ideas for this from a dungeon mag scenario. Dungeon mag is 137 in case you have it. While there are ideas im stealing from it, I'm not sticking to the plot in that overly much so you can read the intro bit at least if you want some more info than what I'm providing here.

Home from crappy work... now to do the family thing.

Have fun all!

What are you doing up this early, Moorluck?

(You probably don't want to hear the answer...)

flash, just thinking out loud, but your idea of Cynthia's ex being a half-elf might also provide an interesting connection to Bo-dan as well. Don't worry, I'm not thinking anything romantic though ;) Unless she tells me different, I'm fairly certain that our heart-broken half-elf monk won't be getting into any kind of relationships for quite some time now

And PS for flash

Spoiler:

Are you ever coming back to Tarren's game??

Yayyyy, Kellen got his first library card! He is so excited. He meets his teacher there twice a week for his studies, so now he gets a few books. He was so excited he checked one out for me and his sister as well! :)

My Primary School Library was awesome for that. I Checked out every Fighting Fantasy, every Choose Your Own Adventure and Every Doctor Who Novel they had (sometimes multiple times).

This... Looks... Awesome!

I hope it can live up to the original (which from the trailer it looks as though it just might).

hmmm... I wonder if we can get a remake of Jason and the Argonauts next? I have both those movies on DVD and Harryhausen is definately The Master.

Oh well...

Tinkerbell Uno is calling me. Have fun.

So, I know David has his Bestiary now, but I have to say, he lives in the wrong place. I was just at Borders and they have two copies on the shelf. I didn't pick one up because I haven't DM'd since 2nd edition, but they were there and they look pretty.

Work has been way too busy this week. Need more time for Paizo.

I'm sorry.
I'll stop venting now.
Next to some of you my problems are so small it's not funny. :(

Firstly the girl who is supposed to be closing the shop tomorrow night calls this morning and tells me she can't do it so I have to go in on my day off to do it.
The tonight the guy that can do Open (other than the new girl I've just finished training) informs me that he is quitting effective immediately and so I also have to go in on Monday (once again on my day off) to do his shift starting at 6am. Of course this is also the day when I am supposed to be minding my kids all day.

But not only that, but now that he has left I am back to being short staffed once more and so work is going to be harder and crapper because of it.

I knew turnover was bad in the service industry, but I didn't think it was *that* bad. Sorry to hear that.

Did it help you wake up?

Me and the rest of my household

I had headphones on, but I had luckily moved them so they were around my neck. My cat was sitting across the room from me and gave me the "WTF" look when it woke her up.

Wrath,

I haven't done Cynthia's background yet because I wanted your input. Are you able to give me some details about the Village so I can get an idea about what to incorporate.
One thing I did do (and feel free to tell me to change it if it doesn't fit with what you have) was to make Kyle a Half-Elf so there would be some kind of connection to him owning a Curve Blade.

Cheers

Good night everyone!

OK Peeps. I'm off home finally (with a quick stop off at the bank).

Check you all laterz.

Not if you marinate them and leave them out to hang for a day or so.

This is disgusting.
If I missed you I am going to be pissed!!!! Missed you all day today by about 15-20 min. :\

Still at work and leaving very soon to go do banking, then off home.

How much longer you on for?

Too tough and stringy...

That reminds me of a meeting we had with an HR rep who went on about how all Australians do is get drunk. I guess stereotyping is bad, unless you're stereotyping Australians.

Sure you can...

Just ask any of my customers. I just hope they don't cotton on to the abysmally high staff turnover rate...

I thought all you Aussies were cannibals, so it didn't matter that much. :)
