Interesting...
Everyone listed in the NPC section now has a portrait. And I've listed your loot. If someone has claimed something and I haven't mentioned it, do so - let's keep track of who has what and what you have for trade.
I've also done some work on the city building tweeks to the Kingmaker rules. Hopefully they'll be ready to show you folks soon.
Ayreth |
I think Azerna and Quera got switched.
We also have the +1 composite bow from the temple.
Yao Mihara |
She's only interested in Kitsune? Anything else?
Yeah, I do intend for most of you to have a shot at romance. It's by no means guranteed, and certainly not required if it doesn't fit your character or you're not comfortable with it.
I'll take some time to think about it. I've never played out a romance in a game like this.
Selena Halfblood |
Noooooo my sock puppets. D:
And we're missing Kiera's image.
Selena Halfblood |
Mihara's eyes grow the size of saucers at Selena's words, her jaw falls slack, and she unwittingly returns to Kitsune form, clutching her three tails close to herself.
This was just adorable. :3
Yao Mihara |
This was just adorable. :3
Thank you! I've been playing the Ace Attorney games as of late, and I was inspired by the dramatic reaction shots there.

Ace Attorney? Never ever heard of them. Nope.
Ayreth |
New map is permission-blocked.
Selena Halfblood |
I can't wait to see what's up with the pump. Bets are open right now.
JonGarrett |
Y'know, I kinda wanna see what you guys are thinking is up with the pump, too. Kinda tempted to make a game of it. The winner gets a 500gp item or something like that. For obvious reasons, Aibek would have to bow out (being married to me may give the player a slight advantage, after all).
Selena Halfblood |
Well, we still need something more to go on. For now, the tube mangling seems weird: if they turned off the pipes already, why hit the tubes, too? If they did that "just to be sure", why not destroy them altogether?
Nigrum Ensis Halfblood |
It's easier to sabotage and break then to outright destroy the whole thing. Also less noticeable. Not to mention you need to take into account that this thing was made and has been running for decades at least and maybe centuries. It was built tough and to last so unless whoever did it had some powerful magic or resources who is to say it was with in their ability to destroy at all.
Selena Halfblood |
Flying glass fishes from the elemental plane of Swarovski?
Selena Halfblood |
Did you notice that every time we've come across a dangerous magical beast, Azri's reaction has been " Can I keep it? :3 "
I know she's probably planning for something to protect the city, but I found it so adorable. <3
Azri, the Lich of Khalharum |
*Snickers*
Well, undead masterminds DO tend to be associated with having monsters guarding their lairs - though Azri's the type who would feed the guard beasts well, provide them with plenty of love and affection, and generally see to it that if heroes (or evil intruders!) who have the wrong impression try freeing them, they'd simply maul said intruders instead of turning on her.
Selena Halfblood |
Are we going to knit them those sweaters people put on chihuahuas, too?
I'm not sure we can convince this one, but we could try putting some points in handle animal at the next level up if we want to go that route.
Azri, the Lich of Khalharum |
Intruders: Here, now, Manticore! If you help us, we'll give you some meat!
Manticore: My master and I have weekly philosophical discussions about the meaning of life and our places within the universe.
Intruders: Um... Psst! Bob! Roll INT and see if you can prove you're smarter than its master!
*Dice-tumbling sound*
Bob: Er, 1... With my modifier, that's 10 total...
GM: The manticore is unimpressed by your lack of knowledge - especially the part about not bothering large, hungry creatures. You're all devoured - get your other profile sheets out.
Azri: :3 *Pet pet*
Manticore: o wo~
(But seriously, that's more of a long-term thought. XD For now, she's just having fun.)
Selena Halfblood |
If I remember correctly Androsphinxes are rather fond of conversation: those are better as allies, rather than pets, though. They're also a bit grumpy.
Nigrum Ensis Halfblood |
Nigrum has handle animal trained, he is also the only one with a monster-ish mount. So yeah he has plans for beasties of all kinds in the future. Some are nice and some, well let's just say their is a reason he has a military mindset. ;)
Yao Mihara |
For the record, I'm not too sure what to do with Mihara in this scene, but I'm still following along even if I don't post much.
My apologies.
Selena Halfblood |
Azri and Ayreth are handling this situation really well by themselves, so we can chill for a bit. :P
On the other hand, didn't Nigrum have a dragon thing going on? I'm surprised he isn't saying anything.
PS: Can't wait for level 5.
Each basilisk killed, room cleared, problem solved, and Symbol retrieved drives us closer to our destined fluffy embrace, Foxy. *.*
Well, I guess Selena will be the one doing the embracing: I suppose that Mihara will try to wiggle away.
Azri, the Lich of Khalharum |
I'm sorry, Selena, but necrophilia is still illegal here. You'll have to content yourself with a fluffy foxgirl.
Selena Halfblood |
Don't worry - gay marriage was legal in Khalharum waaaaay before the US.
I don't know how Selena feels about that...Calistrians and long term relationship don't really go hand in hand. Actually, if that comes up, sooner or later, it could be cool!
But on the other hand, foxgirl fluffyfriends with benefits are perfectly okay.
Selena will show you where the chicken ends up, foxy. <3
Nigrum Ensis Halfblood |
Nigrum's dragon stuff is a work in progress, at the moment it's just an interesting tidbit about his mark.
Also I thought the DM was using an idea I pitched a while back so I did not want to metagame. Then it looks like he did not use it, but then it looks like he did again. So every time I think about chiming in, I think I am about to metagame and remain silent. Now I am just watching while having a sandwich. Annoying little DMs with all their trickery. >.>
But really I am just in the background at the moment. Been beat up a lot today and just want to go to the inn with a soft bed and locks to keep out clingy succubus that like to oil themselves up. xP
Azri, the Lich of Khalharum |
>Implying all that oil wouldn't help her just open the lock and sneak in.
You have much to learn, young lizard. v.v
Ayreth |
"There's still the part up above. If only half of the machine is working, it could damage something else." Azri pointed out. "Best to fix everything and then turn it on, I think."
Wasn't this the upstairs part?
Azri, the Lich of Khalharum |
Ah, right. Well, then! ^^ Time to test it and see what's up.
(You can probably assume that Azri suggested changes while they were repairing it, trying to change whatever frequencies were given off)
JonGarrett |
I may be a little slow to respond. My brother is not well, and I may need to rush off at some point. If I don't post for a couple of days that'll be why.
So...you folks checking the upstairs machinery first and hoping you already fixed what was wrong when you put it back together or throwing the switch now?
JonGarrett |
OK boys and girls, I'm afraid I'll be missing for a day or two, maybe more. So you can see yourself through the next bit.
- Now the pipes are out, the machine will work fine. Feel free to switch it on.
- Feel free to call it a night and chat among yourselves in character for a bit, decide what you'd like to do next. Assuming you start the machine and head to sleep before I get back we'll start the next day when I return.
Sorry to love you and leave you, but I'm afraid other priorities have come up. Hopefully you guys can keep the posting going while I'm missing. Otherwise I'll have to assign homework.
Selena Halfblood |
Also, Selena needed to have a chaperone or everyone else would wake up one morning to find that "Succubus-style Wrestling" was the national sport and all citizens were required to participate. Or something.
SOON
JonGarrett |
You'll have to make do with a city. At least to begin with.
I'm slightly back. The situation is...well, basically my older brother is busy dying, but we're not sure when exactly he's going to go. It looked like he wasn't going to make it out of yesterday, but when I showed up he decided he was going to perk up, so...
I'll be around, starting tomorrow, but expect things to be a little slow and tentative from me for a bit.
Ayreth |
Damn, sorry to hear that. Obviously, take your time and see to your family. I feel confident we'll all be here when you're ready.
JonGarrett |
Oh, there are lots of words, but Paizo's filter blocks the vast majority of them.
Thanks for the condolences. I'm doing OK now I've been to see him. Mostly just very, very tired and sad.
Still, he's refusing to go. He woke up enough to make fun of me, and offered to show the nurses the wonders of 'Davey Love' while his wife was there, so...
Selena Halfblood |
Take all the time you need, Jon. We'll wait for you.
