Hey guys starting fresh for a new campaign!


Female Human Occultist Arcanist 6 | HP 29/29 | AC 12 Touch 12 Flat-Footed 11 | CMB +1 CMD 13 | Saves: Fort +3 Ref +4 Will +6 | Perception: +6 (+8) | Init: +1 | Status: Normal | Spell Effects:

I've been looking forward to this! That was a wonderful introduction post, GM! It's going to be hard to follow that, but I hope to have something up by tomorrow afternoon. I don't know about Albus and Virdel, but I wouldn't mind RP'ing the trade caravan scene.


Male Halfling Rogue 6| AC 20 T 16 FF 16 | HP 51/51| F +6 R +11 W +4; +2 v Fear | Init +8 | Perc +11

Dotting in here and glad to be joining you. I'll need to clean up my alias a little and update my background.

Thanks for inviting me in.


Male Human Ranger/6 | SPD 30ft | Init: +2 | Per: +16/+18 Forest | HP 52/52| AC:19 T:14 FF 15 | CMB +9/+4 +2w/Deft M CMD 20+2 | Status:Normal|F:+8 R:+8 W:+7

Finally!

The boards and I have been at war today, it has been wining.

Roleplaying the shopping will be fine, Albus may need help in negotiating.

Added background skills +2 str and leveled up.

Did not update equipment yet as it may change quite soon.

Took low average on hit point roll, if something else is wanted let me know.

Depending on funds Albus will be looking for a chain shirt(100) or a masterwork chain shirt(250).

He'll be looking to trade some stuff out as well, the hide shirt and pelts and if he gets better armor his hide coat as well.

How are you handling living expenses, tracked, pay a cost of living per pathfinder rules or handwaved?

Welcome to the team Laro!

Finally! indeed. I'm so thankful I was paranoid enough to save my post in a word document before I tried to submit it like an hour ago.

Also, welcome aboard, Laro!


Your GM is a bit sick! Hopefully back to full strength soon.


Female Human Occultist Arcanist 6 | HP 29/29 | AC 12 Touch 12 Flat-Footed 11 | CMB +1 CMD 13 | Saves: Fort +3 Ref +4 Will +6 | Perception: +6 (+8) | Init: +1 | Status: Normal | Spell Effects:

Aww... I hope you're feeling better soon!


Turned out to be a two day thing thankfully. Not a pleasant two days though!

I think I'll be handwaving living expenses unless your characters get a taste of the high life and then we might have to revisit.

Laro. Did you get a chance to update your alias and also think about the questions I sent you?

Virdel. Don't know if you're back yet but are you going to be sticking with Virdel as an oracle?


Oh, and are you guys in agreement that Whisper is a boy fox? Been calling it an it for a while to give you guys the option!


Female Human Occultist Arcanist 6 | HP 29/29 | AC 12 Touch 12 Flat-Footed 11 | CMB +1 CMD 13 | Saves: Fort +3 Ref +4 Will +6 | Perception: +6 (+8) | Init: +1 | Status: Normal | Spell Effects:

I'm happy you're feeling better, GM!

I think I referred to Whisper as a boy fox in the last game, so that's fine by me.


Male Halfling Rogue 6| AC 20 T 16 FF 16 | HP 51/51| F +6 R +11 W +4; +2 v Fear | Init +8 | Perc +11

I've been working on Laro and he is just about done. The answers to your questions are in his background. I'll PM them if you like.


Ah perfect. I see them in there. Hopefully I can get you in a little before the new front liner that we're recruiting.


Male Human Ranger/6 | SPD 30ft | Init: +2 | Per: +16/+18 Forest | HP 52/52| AC:19 T:14 FF 15 | CMB +9/+4 +2w/Deft M CMD 20+2 | Status:Normal|F:+8 R:+8 W:+7

Yes it's best if Whisper is a boy fox.

Glad you're better GM Stargin.


male halfling oracle of intrigue 4 | HP 33/33, L1 spells 3/7, L2 1/4 | AC 19, T 15, FF 15 | F +5, R +7, W +6 (+2 vs. fear) | CMB +2, CMD 16 | Spd 30' | Perc +12 (only +5 vs sound) | Init +6

I'm here. :D I missed the note about the new thread with the whole website mess the last several days.

Yes I'm going to stick with oracle. I might switch him up a bit still. I'm back in town so I should have a chance to get updated in the next couple days. Is that ok or are we ready to start?


We can say Virdel was busy while Aelerie and Albus finish up shopping. Or you can just jump in.

I'm working on updating and getting caught up in game now. I will try to look through the submissions today also. Thanks for your patience everyone!

edit- Ok, I'm going to switch out Reactionary for a skill trait. Also I'm getting charm person and create water. Going through the loot list, I actually can't use some of the stuff I got- the masterwork short sword and thieve's tools in particular. I also don't really need the leather armor or potion of CLW. Someone else can take the potion and we can sell the rest, or possibly save it for a new party member if they are small. But we can split the proceeds if we sell them.

edit2- Picking up Dangerously Curious to get UMD. Although I could get Disable Device instead and use the thieves' tools if others would prefer? Depends on our new person's role I guess. Also I'm putting a rank in Linguistics to get Dwarven.


Female Human Occultist Arcanist 6 | HP 29/29 | AC 12 Touch 12 Flat-Footed 11 | CMB +1 CMD 13 | Saves: Fort +3 Ref +4 Will +6 | Perception: +6 (+8) | Init: +1 | Status: Normal | Spell Effects:

My mistake on trying to use Appraise, GM. Is there some other skill or spell I should use in the future to determine the cost of a magical item? I searched, but I wasn't able to find an official answer.

400gp apiece sounds good to me (and Aelerie)! How do you want to handle scroll purchasing?

@ Virdel We have Laro, our new halfling rogue, so I think we have Disable Device covered. UMD should be good with your Charisma score.


Can you guys take a glance over the submissions and send me your thoughts via PM?

Thanks.

Looking at the recruits now, very good choices available. Will PM tomorrow with my comments.


Male Human Ranger/6 | SPD 30ft | Init: +2 | Per: +16/+18 Forest | HP 52/52| AC:19 T:14 FF 15 | CMB +9/+4 +2w/Deft M CMD 20+2 | Status:Normal|F:+8 R:+8 W:+7

PM sent.

400 gold is great! Will post later today, I hope, RL got busy, but should get a handle on it soon and get back to what's important - gaming!


Welcome to the game Laro!

We can handwave the rest of your shopping as having happened before Mr.Farfeet burst in with his important news.

Just let me know what you want to get in Discussion. Aelerie already got her scrolls.

And with that I'm inactivating the last game to clear it out of your campaign tabs Aelerie, Albus, Virdel.


Male Human Ranger/6 | SPD 30ft | Init: +2 | Per: +16/+18 Forest | HP 52/52| AC:19 T:14 FF 15 | CMB +9/+4 +2w/Deft M CMD 20+2 | Status:Normal|F:+8 R:+8 W:+7

How available is a masterwork chain shirt for 250 G.P. approx.? Since it's unlikely to be enameled green, he would also want a green tabard or mantle to wear over it. Not sure of the coast for that probably 5-10 G.P.


No problem with masterwork chain shirt. Green is a pretty common color so just add 2 gp for a nice tabard.

Virdel you got any shopping to do?


Female Human Occultist Arcanist 6 | HP 29/29 | AC 12 Touch 12 Flat-Footed 11 | CMB +1 CMD 13 | Saves: Fort +3 Ref +4 Will +6 | Perception: +6 (+8) | Init: +1 | Status: Normal | Spell Effects:

Will we have time to stop by the Goose'n'Gander before our new adventure gets underway? More importantly, does anyone else want to roleplay the whole "getting ready" part again? I don't mind, and personally I enjoy seeing GM Stargin add life to the Hollow's NPCs, but if others want to skip more shopping, I could save time by just adding what else Aelerie needs to buy here.

Lemme know. ;)


Male Human Ranger/6 | SPD 30ft | Init: +2 | Per: +16/+18 Forest | HP 52/52| AC:19 T:14 FF 15 | CMB +9/+4 +2w/Deft M CMD 20+2 | Status:Normal|F:+8 R:+8 W:+7

I'm good either way, I have what is needed, a better bow would be nice as well but can wait. Updating equipment soon.

Can I leave the extra money with the Sheriff? I think Albus would be robbed/burgled/pick-pocketed within a day if he kept it.

40 G.P will go to the Church. How about 10 G.P. for living high on the hog for a month, from Albus's point of view? He is also a soft touch for families with a good and true (or at least believable) sob story.


Male Human Ranger/6 | SPD 30ft | Init: +2 | Per: +16/+18 Forest | HP 52/52| AC:19 T:14 FF 15 | CMB +9/+4 +2w/Deft M CMD 20+2 | Status:Normal|F:+8 R:+8 W:+7

Slight change to above post.

This is what any additional shopping will be aimed at, if none done then end here.

Housekeeping
Money gained

118
400
25 1/2 armored coat sell
10 1/2 hide shirt sell
10 est. pelt price.
total 563

expenses
250 masterwork armor
10 living expenses, minor replacement, repairs.
2 Tabard
60 gp tithe to church of Iomedae
total 322

563-322 = 241

5 gp to pouch, rest in "bank"

I think this is right or rightish.

Albus
takes longbow for self, gives shortbow to Sheriff.
Takes CLW, holy water, potion of bull's str.
Give crude trapmaking kit to needy trapper.
takes dagger carries a spare.
Leaves 20 arrows at home.

This seem okay?
Will update character upon approval.

Hello!

I'm the new frontliner. Thanks a bunch for picking me, GM!


Male Human Ranger/6 | SPD 30ft | Init: +2 | Per: +16/+18 Forest | HP 52/52| AC:19 T:14 FF 15 | CMB +9/+4 +2w/Deft M CMD 20+2 | Status:Normal|F:+8 R:+8 W:+7

Hello Back!

Welcome to the party.


Welcome Javell. Since Javell lives in the wilderness it makes sense for Albus to know of him more than the others maybe? What do you two think?


Male Human Warpriest of Desna 5 HP 45/45; AC 23/13/21; Saves +8/+3/+10; +10 Per, +4 Init; 5/5 Blessing, 5/7 Fervor, 6/6 Sacred Weapon, 5/5 Guided Star

Sure. He's quite the wanderer. Almost anyone in the party might know him somehow, but Albus might make the most sense in knowing his skillset.


Male Human Ranger/6 | SPD 30ft | Init: +2 | Per: +16/+18 Forest | HP 52/52| AC:19 T:14 FF 15 | CMB +9/+4 +2w/Deft M CMD 20+2 | Status:Normal|F:+8 R:+8 W:+7

I'm pretty sure Albus would know anyone better at surviving in the woods better than himself that had been around for a while. And he should know most of the laconic woodsy people, the LC may own the valley but I'm sure they don't have enough men to control it all. I suppose Albus didn't bring Javell up earlier because he never quite knows when Javell will show up.


Female Human Occultist Arcanist 6 | HP 29/29 | AC 12 Touch 12 Flat-Footed 11 | CMB +1 CMD 13 | Saves: Fort +3 Ref +4 Will +6 | Perception: +6 (+8) | Init: +1 | Status: Normal | Spell Effects:

Welcome Javell!

Javell might know of Aelerie (and vice versa) if the general store would be a place he would stop by to resupply. Here's the Knowledge (Local) blurb I made about Aelerie for the last game, just in case:

Knowledge (Local) DC 15:
Aelerie was born and raised in Falcon's Hollow. She is known for her bright smile, her kind nature, and her fondness for books, particularly a large, old leatherbound volume she is almost never seen without. Aelerie works tending the town's general store, Goose 'n' Gander, and rumor has it that Brickasnurd pays for her time by tutoring her in strange, fey magic.

Either way, looking forward to having you with us soon!

Not trained, unfortunately.

My (local) DC 15 is something like:

Spoiler:
Javell is a warrior-priest of Desna, originally from Varisia, who stops in occasionally for supplies as he wanders the wilderness. He's helped out a few towns when attacked by goblins.


male halfling oracle of intrigue 4 | HP 33/33, L1 spells 3/7, L2 1/4 | AC 19, T 15, FF 15 | F +5, R +7, W +6 (+2 vs. fear) | CMB +2, CMD 16 | Spd 30' | Perc +12 (only +5 vs sound) | Init +6

Welcome Javell! Glad to have you aboard. I doubt Virdel would have run across you since he generally sticks to his office or home.


Sorry for a bit slower posting but sickness!

I think the most natural way of introducing Javell would be if he's in town picking up supplies at the Goose N' Gander allowing him to overhear Aelerie telling Hindrensocks about the missing kids? Let me know. In the meanwhile I'm posting Laro and Albus at the Sheriff's office.


Male Human Warpriest of Desna 5 HP 45/45; AC 23/13/21; Saves +8/+3/+10; +10 Per, +4 Init; 5/5 Blessing, 5/7 Fervor, 6/6 Sacred Weapon, 5/5 Guided Star

Sure. I can jump in whenever.


Alright Laro and Albus are well into their investigation. Aelerie, Virdel what are your plans? Would like to get Javell in the game pretty soon so maybe you can drop by the Goose N' Gander before rounding up kids to talk to?


Female Human Occultist Arcanist 6 | HP 29/29 | AC 12 Touch 12 Flat-Footed 11 | CMB +1 CMD 13 | Saves: Fort +3 Ref +4 Will +6 | Perception: +6 (+8) | Init: +1 | Status: Normal | Spell Effects:

I'm fine with that.


male halfling oracle of intrigue 4 | HP 33/33, L1 spells 3/7, L2 1/4 | AC 19, T 15, FF 15 | F +5, R +7, W +6 (+2 vs. fear) | CMB +2, CMD 16 | Spd 30' | Perc +12 (only +5 vs sound) | Init +6

Yeah, sounds good. I will meet up at the Goose n Gander.


The Goose N Gander is the gnomish general store. The brothel is the Rogue Lady Virdel.


Female Human Occultist Arcanist 6 | HP 29/29 | AC 12 Touch 12 Flat-Footed 11 | CMB +1 CMD 13 | Saves: Fort +3 Ref +4 Will +6 | Perception: +6 (+8) | Init: +1 | Status: Normal | Spell Effects:

But it is kinda funny if Virdel has gone on all this time thinking Aelerie works at a brothel.

I'll have a post up shortly. I was waylaid by a migraine this afternoon.


Migraines are a terrible thing. Hope you're feeling better.


Female Human Occultist Arcanist 6 | HP 29/29 | AC 12 Touch 12 Flat-Footed 11 | CMB +1 CMD 13 | Saves: Fort +3 Ref +4 Will +6 | Perception: +6 (+8) | Init: +1 | Status: Normal | Spell Effects:

Much better, thanks!


male halfling oracle of intrigue 4 | HP 33/33, L1 spells 3/7, L2 1/4 | AC 19, T 15, FF 15 | F +5, R +7, W +6 (+2 vs. fear) | CMB +2, CMD 16 | Spd 30' | Perc +12 (only +5 vs sound) | Init +6

Yeah I know the Goose n Gander is the store. I wasn't very clear- I went to the brothel while the others went to the sheriff, then I will meet up with them at the GnG at the appointed time.


Got it Virdel. Okay I think the game has begun in earnest with everyone gathered together at the Goose N'Gander and aware of the latest crisis to fall on this poor town!

Any comments/feedback on the game so far?

(Sorry if it's annoying but I think it's good practice to have a quick little survey of you guys every once in a while)


Male Human Warpriest of Desna 5 HP 45/45; AC 23/13/21; Saves +8/+3/+10; +10 Per, +4 Init; 5/5 Blessing, 5/7 Fervor, 6/6 Sacred Weapon, 5/5 Guided Star

So far, so good. Still working to figure out everything that's happened, but that has more to say about how busy I've been recently than anything.


Female Human Occultist Arcanist 6 | HP 29/29 | AC 12 Touch 12 Flat-Footed 11 | CMB +1 CMD 13 | Saves: Fort +3 Ref +4 Will +6 | Perception: +6 (+8) | Init: +1 | Status: Normal | Spell Effects:

I have nothing to add at this time, other than I'm enjoying the game, happy with the pacing, and I'm glad our new players seem to be fitting in nicely.


Male Human Ranger/6 | SPD 30ft | Init: +2 | Per: +16/+18 Forest | HP 52/52| AC:19 T:14 FF 15 | CMB +9/+4 +2w/Deft M CMD 20+2 | Status:Normal|F:+8 R:+8 W:+7

I like the set-up so far, good flavor with the trade caravan.

I'm still waiting for the approval of my above housekeeping. Will update char right after.


Male Human Warpriest of Desna 5 HP 45/45; AC 23/13/21; Saves +8/+3/+10; +10 Per, +4 Init; 5/5 Blessing, 5/7 Fervor, 6/6 Sacred Weapon, 5/5 Guided Star

Just an FYI, I'll be out of town today and tomorrow, so I won't be able to really post. I'll be back on Sunday.


Your housekeeping is good Albus, sorry for not getting back to you earlier.

Hope everyone had or is having a great Easter weekend.
