Adventures of The Second Party in Phaeselis (Inactive)

Game Master Elton

Hi everyone.

I have been working on my Master Rating in Chess for the past 2 days.

So . . . Replies:

1. the Wiki's coin break down is the real breakdown for the campaign. I didn't use Age of Heroes as a perfect reference. It's a Fantasy Greece, not a historical Greece. IF that makes any sense.

eukaros is approved.

Grimir, your kind of approved. I can't see much what is going on.

Well, we got six.

:)

Yaye.

wealth: 3d4 ⇒ (1, 4, 3) = 8
I wasn't sure if I missed the boat here. It has been a busy week. I will have a Elan Shaper put together shortly. Let me know if I should try to post to the wikki
Khalkeús
Actor

Grimir's stats and stuff should be finished..Look over for approval

Tweaked grimirs weapons and armor based on items the wiki had (I had forgot to check there)
I am assuming Linothorax Cuirass is the equivalent of hide armor since it doesn't say there on the wiki

Sorry Guy will be a bit out of touch over the next week, heading to Japan, ill try but if not see you all in 7 days.

I'd need help learning to play the game, but would it be alright to play a Lizardfolk Monk? (Varissai Athlete?)

Here are the details for Khalkeus.

All done I'll be back in 6 dats will try and post wile away

of course. :)

Here is my character concept so far. Meet Zara Korrazik.

Okay.

Everyone, if you don't make it to this party, you might join the original party.
:)

I now have a description and background for Zara Korrazik.

I have a question though, how do I roll dice? I was going to find out today, but can't find an answer in Help/FAQ.

you type [ dice ] in brackets without spaces, then the die/dice you are going to roll, followed by [/dice ] in brackets. like this:

1d20 ⇒ 18

The result is from [ dice ]1d20[ /dice ]

It is listed in the "How to format your text" area if you hit the show button also.

Money 1d6 ⇒ 6 x 10 = 60

Also, I decided to use Zoe Saldana to depict Zara Korrazik. Is that alright? I just figured, if it was a movie, she would either be a voice actress or they'd use computers to make her look like a lizardfolk female.

Okay.

I'm sorry, I'm afraid I don't think I'll be able to join after all... I'm trying to recruit for an Age of Worms campaign already, and I don't think I'll have time to do that in addition to learn Pathfinder.

What rule set are you using for psionics talents?

I have added in Stat blocks both here and on the Wiki. If there are questions comments corrections please let me know. I assumed Swap With Power Known for talents.

What rule set are you using for psionics talents?

Psionic talents are the 0 level powers, if I remember correctly.

You do remember correctly. The question is which rule set are you using for them. They do not appear to have a standard implementation.

Link: Talents.

Do psions get 3 Talents at 1st level? Do you have to/can you exchange a first level power to get 5 0 level powers? There are other listed options too.

1 for 5 is and option for talents as is the three and not two class ones.

1: psionic / magic transparency, ie detect magic or psionics becomes detect/psionics, the same thing, also magic/powers of the same kind do the same thing, so PR is the same as PR etc. that's just to keep life simple.

2: with talents I have gone with this.
All psi classes get there base listed class talents
Psion gets 2 linked to type of Psion.
Wile focuses they have no cost v power points
But all classes can lose one 1level power for 5 talents,
But, they are powered by focus, that means you HAVE expend your Focus to use them for free. You can of course keep it and spend 1 pp to use the talent but 1pp is the max you can send
This how ever let's you keep psionic focus.

In this way they become like catnaps, but with a limited use and down side so there not abused.

I have done this in a number of games and it works out well game play and let's psionics mix well with magic for transparency.

Hope that helps, right back to my trip. Thank you hotel wifi

Almost ready to put in which talent options I want to work with. Right now, I'm doing a mag. Cheers! :)

Hey everyone, feeling stretched a bit thin and since we haven't properly started up I think I am going to bow out on this. Thanks for letting me join up and maybe I'll see folks elsewhere on the boards.

I'm sorry, Eukaeros, for not starting up, but I had a lot to do.

The people that are joining up our little band include:

• Urollain Hexqin
  
• Sivannalendil
  
• Pelagios Inkskin
  
• Khalkeús
  
• Grimir
  

I think that is everyone.

Posted in game play GM, could we have a Discussion thread up as well.

Sorry for not posting the last few days--been down with the flu or some such. It wasn't pleasant.

I'll catch up on the wiki &c. tomorrow night. Send me a PM if there's anything in particular you still need from me, boss man.

hey, i just saw this and while I know that recruitment has shut down, I couldnt help but notice that Cpt Wombat has bowed out. Any chance you are looking for a replacement?
I love psionics, it really is a neat system and I quite enjoy the wiki you got up, that is a neat feature!
So im just fishing for a spot, if you will have me :)
I can get something written up quick, if need be :)

Sure, we can include you. :) Who do you have?

-- Elton.

Sweet!!! Let me think a bit ^-^

Alright, so looking, we got a protean(?) inquisitor, an elan psion shaper, a human oracle of lore, a Duergar criptic and an elf soulblade (soulknife?).

Heres my thoughts thrus far :)
A psion nomad. Either (1) Elan most efficient, (2) Human Middle Ground, probably child like, or (3) Goblin Most fun! You might consider it slapstickish.
He is the embodiment of movement and carefree attitude (think air elemental :P). The very concept I wish i was IRL, having fun and getting into trouble. At lvl 3 he will take Fast Step and be able to teleport everywhere (if he lives that long :P)
This would be the character I would most want to play.

Next Idea was a Half-giant fighter. He would use a massive 2-handed weapon and have a little less subtlety. His basic idea is being born in an almost entirely psionic city with zero psionic ability. Forced to try and overcome this rather large deficiency, he overcompensates with a really large hammer... and a bit of a temper :)

The last idea was to build a human Aegis. Either a fat abberiation (XD) or a more durable juggernaught.

Your thoughts?
Oh ya, I could just play a Blue Nomad for the first idea, but thats like playing a goblin without the goblin part...

First of all, if you play a goblin, most people in the city will think your dino-food or dragon food. The nearest settlement of goblins not from underground is kept in check by letting loose hungry, hungry pyroraptors amongst the goblin population. Some people even think it's great fun to watch the chaos (yeah, they are sick).

Goblin culture in the world is a twisted reflection of actual Hellenistic culture. If pyroraptors aren't out to eat them, goblin alchemists typically find a way to experiment with gunpowder and typically blow themselves up. Also, they have invaded Phaeselis twice and were defeated miserably. However, the king -- Fat Jumper Leg -- keeps on trying. Goblins outside the city are a joke, the goblins inside (and below) the city is a serious matter.

You know, i think im going to bow out the goblin on this one. I just forsee too many issues popping up to keep his head popping...
So I am leaning towards the Elan, but I need to read up more on the other elan so that I am not stepping on his toes too much and so that my Elan can match his (origins wise and such, they are a rather unique race...)
Then I should have most of what I need done this weekend :)

Gobo Horde here :) My guys crunch is largely done, but I do need to roll wealth, so I am doing that now :)
Wealth: 3d4 ⇒ (4, 2, 3) = 9X10: 90 = 90gp.

Next up, Flavor! I hear goblin brains mixed with a bit of sage makes excellent wanton soup ^-^

Soooo... Its been a few days, hows this game coming along? Any feedback on my toon?

Hehe. sorry, it's been one heck of a day.

I like it actually. although the face and ears state gnome to me rather than élan. Anyhow, I like it and I hope you use it to your advantage. Now .. .

originally he was a fire gnome illusionist, but that thread died out long ago :)
Still, I love the name and the picture so much I just had to use it again some time :)

Midioto is a newly created Psion, hardly 15 years old and absolutely brimming with youthful energy and psionic talent, a rather explosive combination. Lithe and light on his feet, the young elan has long ashen hair and golden complexion that is so obviously infused with psionic energy as to leave no doubt to his origins. Yet even then, his face has that distinct trace of gnomish heritage that you cant help but wonder...
While most Elans learn to hide their non human origins and to blend in with society, that is a skill that has thus far eluded Midioto. Will it come with age?
Being young and impulsive, Midioto has the personality of an energetic youth, constantly dashing here and there. When augmented by his mindly powers it can be seen as taken to the extreme, dashing down whole blocks in the blink of an eye, just to get to the other side so that he could see the way he came from.

What Midioto was before he became an Elan and why he was chosen are not known, even to himself. What is known tho is that the end result was a hyper, intelligent, and curious creature intent on exploring this amazing new world.

Despite his high intelligence and respectable amount of skill points, he has almost no knowledge skills, since he is too young to know much. Instead when he hits lvl 2, he will then gain some, to represent his learning of the wide world. He also has a scary fast movement speed and quite significant power pool. This leaves him with plenty of options to explore and rather large potential psionicly wise.

Midiotoziggeroto is movement incarnate. in all senses of the word he is hyper. Hyper fast, hyper intelligent, and just plain excitable :)

So next, how do I enter the story?
I could possibly already be in the palace?

Yep. You could already be in the palace!

Hyperactively introduce yourself.
