Great ^^ let's go diplomacize/intimadicize/slayicize his kobolds.


Caelin, I just noticed. Skald is a different language from Common.

I did too checking the linguistic skill, making proper changes


It seems I'm on an entirely opposite timeframe for posting from everyone else...


I made a few assumptions for knowledge based on the check results. If anything seems out of sorts we can modify.

You're good.


Posting and kind of bumping to show I'm still interested/lurkin' about, kind of thing. =)


Female Human (Ulfen) Barbarian/Summoner 1

Catching up and posting in a moment. Sorry for the lack of posts for the last couple days. Been busy-busy at work and far from my normal workday in front of the computer screen.

No worries.

Sovereign Court

Male Human 20th Level Paladin

Posting def slowed down over the weekend.


Well it's normal I suppose


Long holiday weekend coupled with both of our kids getting sick took me out from Thursday through today...


I'm a security guard and the field supervisor needed me to work at a site yesterday. I spent 13 hours walking around a building making sure people didn't break in and steal stuff. I'm surprised I was able to move my legs today.

I was limping very noticeably by 2 AM....

You need a Segway. ;)


Food, shelter, Paizo books, and internet are more important.


Fem Elf Bard 3

Um..if it's a muscle type strain? I was in a similar position a while back and locally there is a muscle relaxant called "Mersyndol" don't know what it might be called where ever you are. After taking a couple of those babies? It was like I'd gone to sleep and had a full body massage when I woke up. :)

Sorry to hear of your pain.

Best wishes.


Male Half (Dark)Elf Rogue/Fighter (3)

Just wondering if we can do something about the intitiative thing? I have a fairly hight init which works with sneaks attacks etc and as per the last combat the person with the lowest initiative rolled and we got hit first. Only a small thing but kinda nerfs me a bit...


Easy.

Let's just have a designated Initiative-roller. No more volunteering.

Polson, I'm guessing you have the highest?


Male Half (Dark)Elf Rogue/Fighter (3)

As long as the DM is happy then I am! ;)


However the party wants to handle their side of things is cool by me.


Male Half (Dark)Elf Rogue/Fighter (3)

Ok well if we are happy Polson shall roll initiative.


Would the group rather go with individual initiative?


Individual initiative rolls may slow down the action and clutter the board. I'm fine with Polson being our designated initiative roller. And that is in no way self-serving considering he has the highest initiative modifier. ;)


Okay, just checking due to the confusion of the map situation. I was just updating the map with each post update I was doing.

So, what should I have done differently this combat?


Option 3 would be one person rolls the Init d20, then the DM just applies each person's init modifier. You end up with fast people still being fast and slow people still being slow, with minimal delay to the game. So long as you don't require folks to post in init order, summarize events logically based on stated actions, and allow lower init players to redo actions if something happens that would affect their previous action, you should be good to go.

I usually updated the map at the start of each init cycle.


Male Human (Romandan) Warrior 4

Erian basically covered any suggestions I could come up with, but really nice map and just use single rolls for things like initiative or sense motive checks, since we shouldn't be able to know if someone is telling bluffing with us, except for combat feints obviusly.


I usually just post updates once all actions have been declared. I update the map once per round and expect players to post (approximately) in order or initiative. With this many players it may be more difficult, but not too much. Here is an example from a game I DM. Feel free to borrow the template, if you like.

Red Hand of Doom PBP


QUESTION

I've noticed that (a) our party already has a holy warrior and (b) my mount is going to be useless for a significant portion of this AP. I should have read ahead, but I forgot.

Would you mind terribly, DM, if I did some tweaking with this character?

What kind of changes?


Switch around his class. I wanted to change him to a rogue/monk. I figured since we've only had two fights (it's been two, right?) that it wouldn't be too hard.

I'd rather it be a completely different character. Ilya can "feel a pull" to a different place and ride off in the morning. The party will find your new character soon after that. Acceptable?


Sure, sounds great. Thanks!

Spoiler:
I'd prefer you go with a runaway bandit who has been captured by the mites. Other than that, customize away.

Okey-dokes. The PC is 'Blackmouse' on my profile.


Human Psychomancer

DM:
Got to thinking about our party's current situation. Since the kobolds and mites are at war with each other, and my character is going to be a prisoner rescued from the mites, I altered my monk/rogue to be a kobold instead. He can just be a grunt in the kobold tribe, so he doesn't really know anything about the tribe leadership that would give away the storyline or give an undue advantage. His name is Zmey Gorynych on my profile. Is this alright?

Spoiler:
Keep it a goblin, there is already a kobold prisoner of the mites.

Mikmek Info:
He is a blackscaled kobold.
Last survivor of a doomed attacked on the mites.
He and three other kobolds attacked to try and retrieve a statue of "Old Sharptooth" the mites managed to steal.

Edited with additional info for Tanner.


Human Psychomancer

DM:
I was having second thoughts about playing a goblin. Would a svirfneblin be alright?

Spoiler:
Okay, but you don't get nondetection or full SR until 5th level. SR now is 5 plus HD.

Edit: wow...


Human Psychomancer

Sounds great. Thanks.

Edit: We all miss formatting tags from time to time :)


Human Psychomancer

DM:
Okay, now I'm satisfied with my new character. His name is Khthonos Whiteroot

One more thing, O-mighty-DM. I noticed that Initiative and Perception checks seem to really slow down posting. Perhaps you could roll them for us and post the info in a spoiler? I think that would speed things along. Just a thought.

I've been thinking about doing that, just wasn't ready to ask the group if it was okay or not yet. I'll do that from now on.


Tanner

Spoiler:
You still have 3 points to spend on Khthonos' abilities. CMD should be 19 (10, -1 size, +4 Dex, +3 Wis, +3 dodge). Init should be +4. Flurry should be +3/+3. Add either: Dangerously Curious or Mathematical Prodigy. I don't see your SR 6 listed. Perception up top should be +7.


Human Psychomancer

DM:
(1) Base attack for flurry is -1/-1 at 1st level. With Weapon Finesse I get +4 to attack for Dex and +1 to attack for size, for a total of +4/+4. Right? (2) Did you mean ADD one of those traits, or REPLACE one of my existing traits? (3) Your previous post said "you don't get nondetection or full SR until 5th level. SR now is 5 plus HD." Do you mean no SR until 5th level, or that I only have 5+HD until 5th level then I get the 11+HD, or that I get a flat 5+HD starting at 1st level?


Tanner:

Spoiler:
1.Dangit, I had a mental malfunction regarding flurry. 2.Add one of those two traits for a total of 3 traits. 3.You have SR 5+HD until 5th level, then it becomes 11+HD and you gain nondetection.

Sorry about the confusions.


Human Psychomancer

I added a few questions to my previous post. Also, I'm confused. The monk chart at the pfsrd lists -1/-1 for flurry of blows attack bonus. Am I missing something?


My laptop is out of commission for an unknown amount of time. I will update as I can, but don't know how often that will be. Sorry.


Pulled the desktop out of storage. It'll take a while to get things set back up, but I'll have things ready to rock and roll again soon.


Female Aasimar Paladin/Inquisitor

So, just letting you know, I have to work a double tomorrow, a double Friday, a double Saturday, I'm off Sunday but have my RL D&D game and will be catching up on sleep. I work 1 shift on Monday (my other day off) and a double on Tuesday. After that I should work fairly normal schedules, so my posting will be sporadic but I will try to keep RP things moving. Feel free to do all of Constance's other posts if need be, ie rolls, Combat etc.


Hey folks, anyone else out there aside from Caelin, Constance and Polson? (and Peebo)
