Jazz/Kirk/Charlie/Garabott has left the Paizo Boards due to an extended road trip (will be back in about 6months).

I get killed by work atm, but I promise updates tomorrow.

Heads up - I'm going out of town for a few days and internet connection availability is questionable. Feel free to run Kabal if you're having to wait. I should be back by Saturday night.

Looks like Upstate New York for it will be. Got shafted out of Germany. :/
Guess I will be checking out Canada here and there.

Not as nice as NH/VT, but still a beautiful part of the country.


Divine Gamemaster of the Abyss and below...

I have some relatives in NYC and Vermont and once we made a tour from there to toronto - 'twas big fun!


Male Half-Elf (Taldan) Bard (Archivist) 7 Drow Stats 51/51 hp;AC 19/T 14/FF 16; F +2/R +8/W +3; Int/Wis Skills -1

Might not be consultation for missing out on Germany, but I loved living in Upstate New York. If you are up by Watertown though, the winters can be brutal.


Male Gnome Sorcerer/9 - (HP: 49/49 - AC20;FF17;T18 - F+5;R+6;W+7 - Init+9 - Per+11)

It is beautiful up there, I never remember the temperature going to school in northern NH dropping below -42F (-41C). DMHW should be able to confirm this. I am pretty sure that upstate NY has about the same comfortable temperate climate.


Yeah, Watertown is twenty minutes away. PT in sorts most of the winter....


VC - Sydney, Australia

Oh nice.

I always find that a huge boost to morale, like maintaining a clean shaven appearance in field.


VC - Sydney, Australia

Will be away this weekend, going for a relaxed sojourn up in the mountains - away from distractions etc :)

Will be leaving in about 26 hours.

Have a nice cabin booked..


The rose petals and jetted tub are what sold it, huh. ;) Time to learn how snowboard in the winter and hit the mountain bike trails the rest of the time.


Male Orc Expert 5

If he doesn't get mauled by some australian mountain spider shark while fending off giant death ants.


And black widow goats that lay eggs. Pretty sure there will be an AU edition of the Bestiary one of these days

- That, and they are throwing in wine and chocolates on arrival. Should be some nice bushwalking up there too, even theough the temps are getting down to below 0c.

We're not THAT bad, pretty close though.

You end up with snakes in your sleeping bag, Goannas (big nasty lizards) thinking you are a tree and coming at you when patrolling the bush, spiders that look cute - but kill you, small Octopiii with pretty blue rings - that will kill you, gigantic salt-water crocs (5-6 yards long) that will kill you (but not too quick, they mostly drown you then put you under a log for a few days to tenderise), gigantic sharks, scorpions...yeah ok its bad.

Then there's the plantlife.

Then there's the beer.

[edit]Zomg - the post about the evil nasty things was post 6066.

Sadly there are no more black widow goats left in Australia. They were all brutally murdered by the droves in the Cassowary wars. The cassowarys spared none.

And the Emu came through and killed them in turn. Old fellow Emu really is a vicious sh*t.

I just want a nice box jellyfish as my familiar.


VC - Sydney, Australia

Nah, get a swarm of Irukandji instead... box is for n00bs.

Anyhow, back in a couple of days!


Laters. Have fun avoiding all the beauty that is Australia!


Divine Gamemaster of the Abyss and below...

just in case someone is into Star Wars Miniatures

Zyren's SW auction

Scarab Sages

male 1/4 Elf Lorekeeper???

Nice collection, but I think will kepp my money (and the little space I have left) to buy your PF minis next month ;-)

Good luck with the Auction, though.


VC - Sydney, Australia

Enjoying the holiday, turns out they have wifi by the firepit - so you can drink your red wine and laze around with a book or internetz.


Male Gnome Sorcerer/9 - (HP: 49/49 - AC20;FF17;T18 - F+5;R+6;W+7 - Init+9 - Per+11)

Nice Pathfinder by the path fire.

The amazing thing is how may inconsiderate people there are in these games. I do not care if you are going to be away for a few days - BUT TELL THE GAME!!!! There is nothing as frustrating as having 2-3 players and the DM posting comments waiting on someone, sometimes for days on end. If you cannot devote the time to a game - DON'T APPLY!!! It is one thing if you have to leave after several months, but becoming an inconsistent poster after less than a week and in any game I run you will find some high level murderer visiting your room after hours just for kicks.

Vent on, vent on. I can feel the heat of your ire feeding me...


VC - Sydney, Australia

Yeah it can get a bit frustrating when people dither. Always nice if they also give a bit of intention about what they would like to do over that day or so, and always nice if they are ok with the GM rolling on past them/gmpcing if they dont post up :)


Dungeon Master

It does not bother me as long as I know that the player is away, but it is true that it can be frustrating when everybody is waiting and nobody is about, but we keep checking to see if the player has posted yet.


Male Gnome Sorcerer/9 - (HP: 49/49 - AC20;FF17;T18 - F+5;R+6;W+7 - Init+9 - Per+11)

As a note, I will be away from home for the next week. Should be able to post in the morning and evening, but there are no guarantees. If I miss a day and am holding something up, please have someone post for me. I doubt I will miss a day, but one never knows being in the road.

Being in the road is a good way to get that run down feeling!


Anyone ever feel that there is very little difference in the way people play characters of different cultures and races in these games? Samurai may be of a LG alignment, but that does not mean they would hesitate to strike down a peasant who who got out of line. The same goes for dwarves that seem to be just short members of ZZ Top. I really hate when someone plays an agreeable cleric of a god devoted to anything but being so just they can get the weapon proficiency. What's the deal?

You are absolutely correct sir, my paladin will solve his pyromaniac problem presently. No right minded paladin of a crusading deity working in the capacity of guard captain would tolerate the presence of a deranged gnome with a penchant for burning hanging about the town causing mischief. He will be dealt with presently.


Hahahaha, indeed! Looks like Perdition is going to receive a stern lecture in the near future. ;)


VC - Sydney, Australia

I really make a point of separating the characters (and their motivaions) out... Vic the Witch (Monarchy is there to serve the populace, who in turn serve the Monarchy for guidance and protection - long live the status quo!) is nothing like Harry (Bad boy with and old school criminal right/wrong code), who is nothing like Alcheringa (what is civilisation, and why do I care for it?), who is nothing like Cedrick (Al Swearengen is my father), who is not the gentle angel of Winter (No really, I can save the world, they are really all nice and we can all get along... mostly) who is not the highly strung Bloodless (who just wants to continue the battle between Heaven and Hell on the terrestrial battlefield), Attalas was a bit of a blank canvas of simple right/wrong - but letting his experience shape him, Murph started as damaged goods - and a shockingly badly failed SAN check is playing right out (Lets just execute all these somb!@%#es before they kill us!)... hmmm gotta make them all different.


Male Gnome Sorcerer/9 - (HP: 49/49 - AC20;FF17;T18 - F+5;R+6;W+7 - Init+9 - Per+11)

To me a lot of mine feel the same, but I am pretty sure that each has a fairly different feel to others. Gotta admit though that Perdition (hey, fire is fun, so I burned down an orphanage by mistake, mistakes happen) versus Karlan (fight for law and good & protect the orphanage from rampaging gnomes) could be an interesting play.

I think the point where orphanages start burning down by accident is a bit beyond expecting the paladin to give a stern lecture.

Hey don't look at me. Ailetha is just your basic half-hag, you are lucky she has not reverted to eating the children.

Let us know who thIs "they" is, I am pretty sure an Agony Hex will slow them down on this work assignment in the future.

Its 'them'. I am sure I know 'them'. 'They' took my sleep from me, precious sleep... 'they' will come for you, next. Bad 'them' [slightly insane giggling].

I stole away for some quick posts!


Female Human Rogue-Knife Master/10 (Init: +4)

It's the same "they" that have been taunting me my whole life. I'm pretty sure I cornered one of "them" once, but "they" escaped when oblivion finally took me.

"they" are often referred to as bosses...or in my case principals...

pupils are funny things, today I tried to do a short repetition on present progressive vs. simple present in a lower grade...and...they managed to forget everything we did on tenses...le sigh...


Female Human Rogue-Knife Master/10 (Init: +4)

What grade is it that you are teaching?


Divine Gamemaster of the Abyss and below...

they are 5th grade in Germany which means that they are about 10 or eleven years old. I also have a tenth grade in English - they're about 16 years old - and a 6th, 8th and 10th grade in history.


Female Human Rogue-Knife Master/10 (Init: +4)

You've more than got your hand full, I'd say! I'm surprised to see you working with such a range of ages though, that's not very common over here. It's admirable. I don't think I could teach anyone younger than college age (18 and up). I don't have the patience to be surrounded by a swarm of hyper young children day in and day out, and I certainly don't have the patience to be surrounded by teenagers (at least not the smart-mouthed ones).


Male Gnome Sorcerer/9 - (HP: 49/49 - AC20;FF17;T18 - F+5;R+6;W+7 - Init+9 - Per+11)

Zyren, you teach at Gymnasium? Realschule? or Haupschule?
