um... can you respond to my easter egg post at least before closing this out? that'd be cool, thanks.
Andrietta Ebonfeather

Could you PLEASE hold off on closing out the thread until some time after PaizoCon?
There is at least one player that said they wouldn't have anything up until then, and I should have less of a 'Block' after this weekend is done.
| GM Hmm |
I will hold off closing things up until after PaizoCon, and yes, I will respond to Hikaru's Easter Egg!
K'Kei Hikaru

thanks!

Been trying to post in Gameplay and it's not letting me. Is the thread locked?
K'Kei Hikaru
|
works for me.

Does everyone that wants in on the ratfolk experience have a ratfolk boon?
K'Kei Hikaru
|
I do.
Chak Yuen Chen
|
I have one.
K'Kei Hikaru
|
Hmmm... any chance of responses soon? I know you're busy with GDIV, so no worries... just making sure you didn't forget us. If I don't hear from you, I'm just going to continues and assume Jerizhana said 'yes'... lol.
| GM Hmm |
I haven't forgotten. Between Cosmic Captive, Gencon Prep and PBPGDVI, my life has been crazy.
Is Paul planning on running something Ratty for PBP Gameday VI?
Sarano Snowfeather
|
what's everyone kind of thinking for their Rat guy?
I was thinking a Despereaux type rat swashbuckler inspired blade but I have many ideas beside that.
Andrietta Ebonfeather
|
I have a rat-person thingie.
I have no clue what to do with rat-person thingie.
I'll probably try to fill in whatever gaps we have as a party unless I can think of something neat soon.
*probably* not going to be a curmugdeonly ol' grandma rat.

You could always play a really excited Scavanger. Someone who just loves to tinker with various things. If you do, you will have to save Graves of Crystalmaw Pass for that character. Trust me, a scavenger character would love that adventure.
There are a few downsides to the class, but one of the upsides is not having to worry about how to Detect Magic in order to identify magic items. The archetype allows you to do it via a skill. I played through Ire of the Storm with a Scavenger and it was fun. I will probably make one for PFS at some point.

In case any of you are interested, I'm planning to run my first PBP as part of PBP Gameday VI. I'm at table 132, Masks of the Living God.

Yay! Bret is GMing!

After events on a mission to Mendev, Andrietta is *strongly* considering buying a farm in Ravenmore Spelling intentional and hiring on some help.
Not that she's *retiring*, just that she had a chance to see what 'not being tied to a place or thing' might do to a person...

Look who is ready to go adventuring this weekend.
...needs moar moustache...

nice figure I use the same one (painted quite differently of course) for my tengu magus....

I want to play Starfinder locally before I commit to pbp. Spending 4 hours on something I might not like would be better than investing weeks.
Andrietta Ebonfeather
|
Aside from which, I went through some effort to get someone a Ratfolk boon to do the Rat Family, and Ysoki are a playable race in Starfinder...
*nearly dies at the idea of Vralk in a space suit*
| GM Hmm |
What game did you have in mind for us? I will admit that I have no character in mind... yet.
But that can change!
Do we want to start a campaign thread where we can discuss all things ratfolk?
Hmm
PS Regarding Starfinder... Chak, you will be pleasantly surprised. The game system is intuitive and the adventures so far are a delight.
Stali One-Penny

She has been laughing in delight as she reads the Starfinder scenarios she has.

What levels are everybody? I'm mostly assuming level 1 but lots of people have GM credit babies, Emerald Spire runs, etc :-)
My immediate thought would be either Let Bygones Be (likely proceeding to parts 2 and 3) or a module.
Part 1 of Dragons Demand is a lot of fun.
Ire of the Storm looks like it could be good
Stali One-Penny
|
Can you guys find something for level 2 that everyone can play?
Finding something people could play was a big problem for the Tengu group.
Andrietta Ebonfeather
|
I won't have L2 on my rat-baby.
Ire of the Storm sounds like the option for me, I've got someone that's supposedly going to be running Draconic Diplomacy at some point...
pauljathome

Timing : Gencon is coming up and immediately after that I'm going to be busy at a local Con. So, lets plan to start very early Sept.
As to what, lets see if any of the following work for everybody (where "work" means can play or willing to burn a replay on :-)).
Dragons Demand part 1
Ire of the Storm
Faithless and Forgotten Series (7-14, 7-16, 7-18)
Gallows of Madness (partly an Evergreen)
If those don't work, I'll move on to first book of Adventure Paths :-)
Andrietta Ebonfeather
|
Gallows would be very interesting with an all rat-folk group.
Don't know about Ire
Concern about Dragons arleady mentioned.
Already played F and F, and don't have nearly enough replay for all three.
Em Spi L1 might be... very interesting.
Chak Yuen Chen
|
Dragons Demand part 1 OK
Ire of the Storm OK
Faithless and Forgotten Series (7-14, 7-16, 7-18) already played
Gallows of Madness (partly an Evergreen) Would have to burn a star for part 3, but OK
| Almonihah |
I thought it might amuse you to know that the phenomenon of pie-eating raven familiars is spreading...
Andrietta Ebonfeather
|
Did we ever determine what scenario/module we are doing?
Chak Yuen Chen

| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
Me too, but I'm a bit overloaded at the moment, I really can't add another game until after the gameday.
Andrietta Ebonfeather
|
Same here, but want to make sure we don't lose track of this after the amount of effort some of us have gone through to make this work.
Admittedly, still need to figure out a character... Ideas? Unfortunately, Andrietta did Graves already...
K'Kei Hikaru

my 1st lvl ratfolk is an alchemist... other than that, it's a wide open field... personally, I think just about anything could work...

So guys, I'm going to be joining the US military(Army. I'll be shipping out to Basic training on January 2nd and then training for about 6 months.
I'll be basically out of commission as a GM/player from January to almost June of 2018.
I had hoped we would have been able to start that ratfolk campaign before I left, especially with Wei Jei going to great lengths to get me a Ratfolk boon but it looks like I probably won't be able to join you guys on a Ratty Escapade.
K'Kei Hikaru
|
so sad to hear that, Sarano/Cody... have a safe time in the army!
Andrietta Ebonfeather
|
Hey.
Be safe and careful during Basic. Keep yourself and your unit whole, in body, mind, and spirit. It will be hard to do, as the basic conceit of Basic training is to devolve the Self to be less than the Whole. Reach the balance point, help your fellow soldiers, and keep strong.
If anything, this is slightly good news, as I STILL have 'writer's block' and have been struggling to come up with a good ratbaby to play in it.
Sarano Snowfeather
|
Thanks, I didn't mean to come off angsty either, I've just been letting my groups know.
Given time I'll definitely be back to the boards but it'll be some time!
I appreciate the advice Wei Ji!
Stali One-Penny

Take care Cody!
Let us know as you complete basic training. I expect it will be a while after that before you know where you will be sent.
