RE: Ali's post about running the shopping party offline -- I concur. In fact I think I'm pretty much done. UNless Val wants to RP visiting the armoury and bookshop, I'm willing to assume we went there made out purchases and left without incident.
Wellard and shopping crew (ALi too) :
MW shortsword for Muchorak 310 gp
Silver sheen 225.
What's available in the book/map line? Has Marak inquired there already?
Is an ever-burning torch available?
Sounds good to me!
DM and Shopping Crew:
Sounds good to me!
DM and Shopping Crew:** spoiler omitted **
Agreed. Wellard?
Shopping Crew
Perhaps once all the shoping is done, we (or You guys ) can make a post where we ( You ;-) give the gifts 'we' got to everyone?
Shopping Crew
** spoiler omitted **
that's the plan.

I have no problem with just considering the shopping done
I did post in the main thread that small numbers of EBTs sunrods and Tanglefoot Bags were available.
For the Feathered Serpent..theres a 10 % chance in any given week that any particular minor wonderous item is available for sale...that covers the eclectic nature of the goods there. It might be possible to place an order there for specific items of any power but it might take some time to obtain them.
I must do a full listing of the sandpoint shops for you at some point

Sorry, my bad. Missed the EBTs and tanglefoot bags. Now there's an item that might be useful. Got to see how much is left after Romon buys a backpack full of junk.
I've got RotRl #1, so I could cruise the shop descriptions myself, except Romon's not a local. Your call.
I'll see if I can borrow the right volume from a friend. Are they both in Pathfinder #1?
Set, you'll get a bonus from that book too!
"(the book will add +2 to knowledge (history) with regards to Thassilon..basically its the Thassilon article from Pathfinder 1) "
Yes, both articles are in PF #1.
My friend did the same thing for me that he did with the Shoanti article in one of the later issues, he just printed the player-safe section out from his pdf. I'm looking forward to reading the Sandpoint article. :)
Waterborn reconnaisance of Thistletop
There's a lot to think about such a plan. Water temp, currents, the size of Thistletop and its distance from shore, nasty aquatic fauna or flora. Wellard, when we sight Thistletop can you break it down for us?
Also,meta-gaming wise, I don't think it's a great idea to split the party, unless Wellard just wants to broadbrush a recon. If Bill and I hit an encounter it could take days IRL to sort it out. I don't want to drag the game for those who would be left ashore. (Still feel I got a little hoggy with the shopping party.) MAybe Wellard could ambush the party while we're away.
Romon's cocky enough to try anything, especially if Inikai is going. And this is the kind of mission I personally dig when playing a rogue.
Pros and cons, I'll go with the party's choice. Romon will too, but he's probably going to argue for this plan.
Don't worry Thom! I was mainly worried about how safe a lone swimmer would be. I know there are sharks in Korvosa, and that's not that far from Sandpoint, is it?
We avoided that trap for now at least.
For now. :)
You know what's great about playing a coward? You always have an excuse for bad aim!
Kallie can't be too much of a coward or she wouldn't be here. If Romon were intelligent instead of merely clever, he'd probably be more afraid.
Wellard, thanks for whacking the puppy while Romon glides into the shadows untargetted. I promise to wait for official Round announcements henceforth.
I don't know, Set. When we get to the beach after all this gory action in the heat, maybe a swim would feel good. We'll be all sweaty and sticky with dried blood ....
Puppy!? Grrrr careful or she'll rub up against you and order some of her flea friends to ATTACK!
But she and I are properly chastised and shall meekly await our signal to rend stinky gobbo flesh! err, I mean go.
Kallie:
The Ballad of Brave Maid Kallie
Bravely bold Maid Kallie rode forth from Sand-a-point.
She was not afraid to die, O brave Maid Kallie!
She was not at all afraid to be killed in nasty ways,
Brave, brave, brave, brave Maid Kallie!
she was not in the least bit scared to be mashed into a pulp,
Or to have her eyes gouged out, and her elbows broken;
To have her kneecaps split, and her body burned away;
And her limbs all hacked and mangled, brave Maid Kallie!
Her head smashed in and her heart cut out
And her liver removed and her bowels unplugged
And her nostrils raped and her bottom burned off
And her nether parts--
=D

And then the blood draws the sharks! See!?

That Winter they were forced to eat Kallies Minstrels..and there was great rejoicing
That does it, I'm not taking Leadership. Ever! >:(
LOL. You guys are mucho fun.
Hey Kallie, forgive me if I'm wrong but I realized you may not have gotten the reference of that song. It's from the Monty Python movie "Monty Python and the Holy Grail" most certainly a true classic of British SILLY humour...but sometimes I forget that not all of us here are old farts ;-)
(And I started to feel my age again tonight when my date for seeing Star Trek had Never seen ANY of the Next Generation shows or movies let alone the Original Star Trek!! :O She had vaguely heard of Captain Kirk and Spock but...of course in this case it's likely more of a cultural thing than an age thing as she's only 3 years younger than me and she's Mexican (where I now live, in Cancun. Whoop!). But it got me thinking, there's a whole generation out there to whom this new Star Trek movie is Completely New...man, am I really That old?...But the movie handled it well with the whole 'Alternate Reality' thing (and don't worry, that's the only spoiler-ish thing you'll get from me and it doesn't give anything important away)
Good Flick though, and they've left lots of room for many more Star Trek movies so Yay!
Anyway, I got side-tracked (another symptom of advanced age I'm afraid = )
The rest of the song goes like this:
Brave Sir Robin ran away.
Bravely ran away, away!
When danger reared its ugly head,
He bravely turned his tail and fled.
Yes, brave Sir Robin turned about
And gallantly he chickened out.
Bravely taking to his feet
He beat a very brave retreat,
Bravest of the brave, Sir Robin!
If you'd like to see it for yourself:
Brave Sir Robin
Yeah, it took me a while to catch on until Wellard mentioned the minstrels. ;)

[ooc] Val, didn't know Kallie swore by Okinawan daggers. Seriously, Kallie cracks me up. "Mother said ...."
It took me a second to figure out what you were talking about here. Sai = Okinawan dagger. Duh! You guys are awesome. I'm still enjoying every bit of this.
Oh, and I got the Monty Python reference too...but then my wife tells me I'm old, so that might not help much. Either way, you guys are a hoot. Keep it up!
Ya sounds like a Blast! Never been to one but I Will one of these days soon
Enjoy Man
Yeah I just caught the sai thing. You cad. ;)
Sorry for taking so long getting back from the holiday weekend. And have a good time at the con Wellard!
Romon watches the pair. Their proximity to each other and Kallie's pat on the back seem to concern him more than Inikai's apparent insincerity.
Uh-oh! Drama inbound! ;)
Kallie really is the worst person to have in the middle of that situation. She's not the most emotionally mature PC in the group!
Thanks! And I've been meaning to tell Khal, Bo-Dan from Fall of Empires pretty much made me have to start playing a monk over at Nightwish's game.
Writing your actions for flurry of blows is fun. :)
Yes Thanks Wellard! It's a great game. Wrath is a talented writer, he is great at building tension and atmosphere.
And Bo-dan would be very pleased to hear that she had inspired another to follow the path on meditation, inner searching and discipline. May you find all you seek grasshopper!
And hey, this makes me curious...How many games are people playing on here??
Personally I'm involved in 6 on plothook and a few more on other sites (although only one is currently active)
Also at my limit. Running 1, playing 6, but 2 are ultralow intensity -- post about 1/week. Hat's off to you Wellard; I couldn't manage to run 2 games.
Yes I heartily agree with Bill. I've many times thought of running my own game but have yet to be willing to make that kind of time and effort commitment. I have nothing but mucho respect and gratitude for those hardy souls who do so and make it all possible for the rest of us to enjoy playing.
I didn't know you were running a game Thom. Is that the ROTRL you're running as CrimsonDM? If so I'll check it out as I'd like to see your DMing style.
Oh and ya Bill, that game we were in went the way of the dodo very soon after you left.
I came close to trying to start a game twice before I came to my senses. ;) I don't know how the DMs manage it!
I'm at my limit too with nine active PCs here. Some of the games are slower in pace but I really need to avoid joining any more for a while.
That was awesome with the pack mentality for Ali btw!

whoops I'm playing in 6
It's CoCT Thom is running and I'm playing in that as Heather the patriotic Korvosan Sorceress
in addition I'm playing as
Mellisa Evendale..female Rogue (disguised as a boy) in BrOps SD Game
Sondergang Wulfsson Dwarven Cleric of Torag in Patrick Curtins Tharkad Kul(slow posts in this one)
Robert Edward Jackson In PHDs Call of Chthulu game(again a slow post rate game)
Ewald Salador ..Taldoran Noble Ranger in Robins Taldor Game which is an almost purely social interaction game so far..not a combat roll made yet..Val plays my reluctant betrothed there and we are having a lot of fun with it
And my witch Andrea is appearing in Tower of the Last Baron run by DM Dahn
Then I run this and my Wilderlands game..but I do have everything at hand when I'm online as all my stuff is also on pdf..I can cut and paste a lot which speeds things up
whoops I'm playing in 6
...
Ewald Salador ..Taldoran Noble Ranger in Robins Taldor Game which is an almost purely social interaction game so far..not a combat roll made yet..Val plays my reluctant betrothed there and we are having a lot of fun with it...
Note to self. Find this tread and lurk there.
Khaladon, per Wellard's reply, I an running a Crimson Throne. It's unfortunate title stems from my total ineptitude with things like starting new threads.
I try to go role-play and description heavy, but time constraints often get in the way. I think we went 6 pages in the prologue before there was any real combat.
In addition to being a patriot, Heather is developing a very fine "angry young woman " voice too. I'm looking forward to seeing how she handles events down the road.

I'm in;
Zoomackulas' Second Darkness game (Violant Aurori, Human Cleric of Calistria, raised to be a temple prostitute, still a virgin)
Fabes DM's Arcana Unearthed game (Shekkebet, Mojh Magister, gave up his humanity for love, only to discover that he no longer feels love in his new form)
DM dahn's all evil Second Darkness game (Mordecai, Human Cleric of Urgathoa, former feeding vessel for Gebbite vampire nobility, and liked that life better than what's happened since)
Wellard's rescued Rise of the Runelords game (Marak Quan, Human Cleric of Nethys, dude with very little backstory, 'cause I was feeling uncreative...)
Can ya tell I like Clerics?
Hey all i'm due to be moving back to the states sometime next week. I should still have internet access but it will be intermitent until I get established in OK.
Wellard feel free to run Muchorak if i'm taking too long to reply. I'll let you know in this read when I officially begin the move.
Where are you moving to, Azoun?
Hi, Wellard!
Where are you moving to, Azoun?The post mentioned getting established in OK. Sounds like Oklahoma?
DOH! Of course
Wow thanks All! You're certainly added to my required reading material now! Lots of new games and characters to follow ;-)
And Wellard, PHD is a RL personal friend of mine. Actually his was the first RL game I got back into after YEARS of Absence. He's a great guy and a swell DM, sorry to hear about the posting rate but I'm sure it's a great game. (which I'll get to see for myself soon as I check it out amongst all the other great contenders. Oh and thanks for the correction, I seem to always get RotRL and CotCT mixed up for some reason...)
The specific Paizo games I'm in are:
-This one, as Ali, the strange but cute (and savage) Wild Druid Gnome we all know and love
-Zalen, a wily human Rogue who's just started to discover some of his previously unknown magical heritage. Somehow he's been elected to lead his group of misfits as they try and make their way in a city in upheaval in Terra Nova's CotCT.
-Bo-Dan, a LG half-elf monk, trying to survive as a refugee, the only being in the world she can depend on her lover the fast thinking, fast talking half-elf Rogue Paera (Val) in Wrath's home-brew game 'Fall of Nations'
-Gal, another Wild Druid, this one big, mean and even more savage in another home-brew 'Scarred Lands'
-Layjiani, the party ranger/rogue scout in Wellard home-brew 'To the Wilderlands & Beyond'
-And Bogorin, and aged alcoholic Dwarven ex-cleric, who had long ago lost his way in a bottle yet when the need of a loved called has answered it and begun to find his faith again.
On another site I also play a high level Snow Elf Duskblade, a Human Favored Soul/Contemplative/Sacred Exorcist and a Halfling Mystic Theurge who thinks he's a Dwarf in old 3.5 style. (Fun to be in high level games sometimes = )
