Well the two rogueish/thief characters want to have a look in the chest and the other two don't. It doesn't surprise me that much, though the one afraid of goblins teaming up with the goblin however does!
Irnk and Wanwa'lasse came to an understanding in the caves. Irnk is okay, other goblins are still a problem.
Actually we already looked in the chest - the subject now is whether or not to look in the secret compartment in the hilt of the sword...
inside the chest was five potions of cure light wounds, two potions of cure moderate wounds, three potions of lesser restoration, a ring of climbing, a wand of identify with 19 charges, a masterwork chain shirt, a masterwork cold iron wakizashi, 11 Desnan candles, and four skyrockets (see page 60), in addition to 3,820 sp, 421 gp, and various pieces of fine jewelry worth 560 gp total
Sorry yes I did mean the secret compartment.
Speaking of loot as I don't think the AP would have Ameiko take all of that stuff how are we going to divide it? Just split the money 5 ways, give the potions to front line fighters (mostly Baltahzar as he can drink potions only) and the other items to those that think they might use it?
well i dunno hadn't thought about division of treasure. I guess sell what we don't want/can't use first then divide things equally?
I think as longs as we all wind up roughly even, we should be good.
As long as Irnk can buy a breeding pair of pigs to give the Licktoad & have enough left over to pay Hijiro back for buying the Flail, he's good. Money isn't really so much a Goblin thing, he'd actually rather keep the fireworks, so if he still would have coin left over after the things mentioned, he will probably ask for them instead.
Aaaand now I have a better IC reason for Irnk to be an ass to Ameiko if he catches Hijiro flirting with her.
Hah, I love what's going on in the gameplay thread!
Nothing like some fun IC disagreement to spice up an adventure. :)
I'm still thinking on what a suitable reaction for Sienna will be for when Hijiro starts to flirt with Ameiko. Probably bottled up anger that she will take out on Sandru I don't know yet. We'll see :P
Unfortunately, illness seems to be turning my brains into scrambled toast, so don't be surprised if I don't post for a day or so. Will be back when I'm feeling better.
Not certain how much I will be posting 'til Monday. I have family coming into town until then.
John, that character isn't in the game anymore but are you posting in the right thread? I'm not sure you're in this campaign.
Anyway more of a general question I've realized with the kind of rearranging of party members and the like, we don't really have knowledge character or one that helps with most of those types of int skills once we lost Kravo (ages ago now).
I'm not sure how important those types of skills will be here on out but would it be alright if I change to witch? I know that's a bit shift but it stays within Sienna's background and it will help balance out the party. All I would need to change is she was helped by a witch instead of a druid.
If it isn't really needed then don't worry I'm still happy with the druid, I just like making sure the party is well rounded.
Cool, will hopefully get something stated up soon. I'll change my profile when I've got something ready.
Great scene at the Rusty Dragon. Don't forget to take Balthazar when you ask Koya to go on the mission! He's peacefully recovering from his wounds. :)
Now that RPG Superstar is nearing its end, I'll be coming back soon, if that is ok. In case I make Top 4, I should be back to regular posting by the end of the month; otherwise, a little sooner than that.
Congrats and good luck! We won't forget you.
The monthly 'Family Visit' is upon me. My posting should return to 'normal' about Sunday or Monday.
Hey guys, I've got a bit of bad news. My computer is having issues and it's going to take some time to sort it out. My posting over the next week or so is going to be stunted since I will only have access at work, and I've got a good bit of stuff to slog through. I'm still committed to the game, but I won't be able to post nearly as much.
Hey all, I hat to do this, but after some consideration and introspection, I'm going to be reducing the number of games I'm in on the forums. I have a lot of things I want to do, and unfortunately, Pathfinder found itself down at the bottom of the list when I got them sorted. I've had fun, but I'm dropping this game. I'm sorry to do this, and I hope that you guys have fun.
I understand. I'm actually having to do a similar consideration for other reasons myself. Have fun!
Unfortunately, my monthly visit from Family is starting a few days early this month, so I expect I will be posting even less frequently than usual for the rest of this week.
Hi... anyone else still here? Glad you're okay Cele - I thought we'd lost you competely.
No worries, Life is like that sometimes. Sometimes for months at a time...
Well I'm still around if things pick up again ^^
Sounds good. I will be posting in Gameplay either by the end of today or early tomorrow. Sorry to hear your brother got arrested, I got to enjoy a few hours in a holding cell a couple weeks ago for a moving violation so I have fresh recollection of how much that can throw a person.
No critique of you Celes, but it has been long enough since the last time I posted, I've kind of forgotten my 'voice' so-to-speak; so I'm going to review everything so far to give myself a refresher.
Bah! I keep forgetting to switch my avatar...
Do we have an idea where we are XP-wise? Are we getting close to 2nd level?
Also, are we scrapping the Caravan Rules? I don't recall if we had already decided to do so, but I can understand if we are, seeing as I've noticed a number of negative commentary regarding those on the boards.
I thought we'd already gone to 2nd lvl... anyway - we're just waiting for balthazar to check in... cele have you tried pm'ing him to see if he's still on the boards?
changing my profile for the game too - I thought we were done here, sorry Cele, so I got HIjiro into another game. I will be posting here from now on as Hijiro Hakamura if that's okay.
Alright, if we are 2nd level, that begs the question; are we rolling HP or allocating it in some other manner. Or did I miss that as well at some point?
The 'Relationship Game' was an interesting idea & I like certain aspects of it, but I tend to view it as Barbossa would put it; "It's more of a , really."
Not to mention, mechanically, I only get 4 skill points a level at best & being almost forced by an optional subsystem to allocate half of them to specific skills if I want to keep up with certain RP developments feels a little harsh.
Granted, the skills in question for Irnk (Intimidate & Sense Motive) are quite useful for a great deal more than just that minigame, but the fact that the minigame seems to all but require that I keep them maxed does tend to impede his overall flexibility & consequently his ability to 'bring more to the party', so-to-speak.
Hey guys, I'm on board, I was just waiting for the game to continue. ;)
Hi, Balthazar! now just waiting to see if Wanwa checks in, yes?
I think Wanwa left again, from her post further up the discussion thread. In terms of the additional stuff like caravans and relationship things I would be happy to drop them as it feels like a mechanical crutch to just roleplaying interactions and those without high Charisma/skill points don't get as much character development with the main NPC cast which in my eyes is weird. I don't mind what we do for that though.
Will also post a new build for Sienna just to fill that hole we have in the party now that I'm the only spellcaster left by the looks of things. I will probably stick to the witch idea but might do alchemist depending on how many holes I can fill to make the party more effective.

I think Witch is the best idea. Witches can be very versatile. Our biggest issue as I see it is not actually a lack of casters so much as a lack of 'People who know stuff'. That being the case, I was actually contemplating a brief, 2 level, dip into 'smart-alec bard'; just to have a better chance of making some Knowledge rolls.
Probably Witch yea, though alchemist does have more skill points just less knowledge skills to spend them on. Alchemist does help in the damage department a little so I can chip in but I probably will just end up with summons again to do that, just not as many as a wizard or druid.
Alright, I'm going ahead & doing it. I'm going to dip into Bard. That will give us/me a bit more versatility. That said, Celes, how are we doing HP for levels after 1st again? Are we rolling or doing something like PFS?
Looking at the witch build I've got going I'll likely have 8 skill points a level, just so I don't overlap with your knowledge skills are you going to take stuff like knowledge local?
Likely going to put one point at least into everything except Arcana & Planes, just to have at least a 'Hail Mary' chance at identifying/remembering something relevant. After that, I hadn't quite decided, but Local would probably be a good one. Technically, Nobility and Religion are big ones for Paladins, but I think we all know Irnk is not your normal Paladin...
That said, I need to get Irnk's Knowledge (Religion) up high enough for him to figure out Erastil isn't necessarily the misogynist so many people on the boards like to paint him as.
On that note; it's kind of like the difference between 'I am Strong.' & 'You are Weak.'
Alrighty:
Shows you what I get for opening my big mouth...
Okay witch rewrite, stat changes only int and wis are swapped
New saves: +3/+4/+4
HP: Favoured class
Skill points per level: 7
Feats: Extra Hex, Improved Initiative
Trait change: Focused mind > Reactionary
Hex: Cackle, Slumber, Fortune (extra)
Familiar: Fox
Skills: Spellcraft +9 (2), Knowledge (arcana) +9 (2), Knowledge (history) +8 (1), Knowledge (the planes) +8 (1), Knowledge (nature) +9 (2) Heal +6 (2), Use magic device +3 (2), Fly +7 (2). Total 14 skill points
Level 1 spells: CLW, Ear-piercing scream, Mage armour, Obscuring mist, Frostbite, Charm person, Mount, Enlarge and reduce person.
Level 0: All
Slight background change: Saved by a witch and not a druid. Rest of it is basically the same.
Last thing to choose is patron. Going to find a close one to storm druid to keep in theme with the afraid of weather bit.
Edit: Hmm no storm stuff except a very subpar archtype. I'm going to keep delving. Also if I turn into the joker and laugh incessantly all day I can make everyone roll twice for all their attack rolls the whole day... right.. that's not going to get awkward. xD
Cele, if you'd let me, I would rather take the average as per the core rulebook instead of rolling. I roll terribly in HP and it's something I prefer to go the safe route. In my oher PbP the GM wouldn't allow me to do that despite my heedings, and I rolled a 2, as predicted. So, may I choose not to roll and take 5hp +1 from Con?
