Thanks for the notification.
Is the game still on?
Looks like the game is coming back. Looking forward to it.
All new players are picked, hopefully will post soon.
Hi to everyone, things to know for this campaign, I am on GMT so posting times may be disjointed.
This is a home brew system so not everything will be by the books, though anything i change, changes for all, I am a hard, but fair DM. If my npc get bonuses then the PC have similar bonuses available to them.
important info for when you level up to level 2, I will allow skill swaps at this point, particular if you aren't using a skill as much and you want to swap for one that isn't strictly a class feature. this must be discussed with me first and can only be done during the level up to level 2, after that you have what you have.
Anything else please ask me or my players.
look forward to starting up again on Monday and seeing how you guys get on.
xo
Posting on GMT here also, so that shouldn't be an issue. Gotta love the student lifestyle
Hey guys looking forward to starting this back up and welcome to you new players!
Hey everyone. Just checking in and introducing myself I suppose.
Was kinda curious about what all is homebrew about the game. What's different from regular pathfinder? Also was wondering where we're at in the setting.
Oh, and I give little finder permission to take all the liberties she wants when it comes to my background. Just try not to kill off my entire family please. If you want me to clear up anything just let me know.
[Yawn, stretch] Well, that was a lovely nap, now, about that forest...
Ok Hi to everyone again.
The home brew element is the worlds lack of magic and some other things which I don't want to spoil for you. but you will notice that npcs reaction to magic is not that of a normal Gallarion NPC/creature.
it is set in a 'as yet' unknown area of Galarian. meaning the town you are in and surrounding area is not from Galarion pre-this game,(however for the porpoises of the game it has always been there, it isn't unknown to the world you are all in, just to the pathfinder world as a game) but you are from any part of Galarion you want to be.
the original home brew setting for this is still in development so to make character creation simpler i have brought it back a little towards pathfinder.
you will come across creatures not in the pathfinder books and some folk tales and history not from pathfinder. The way some people work will not be pathfinder esq. this is a low magic world so they will all have ways of doing things that haven't been inspired by magic.
whilst combat works as with the normal pathfinder combat rules (again to make it easy) don't rely on knowing your enemy's stats as a player.
As you play more will become clear but I hope this helps.
also a few more things to bare in mind:
Outside of combat feel free to roll without prompt but if I feel as a DM the roll isn't needed, I will just ignore it. don't think me rude it just i run by 'common sense and reality' rules.
i.e. you want to talk to people in town to find out town history, you would just roll play it and actually talk to people, not roll a knowledge check, you may roll to get an idea where to ask first. so skills will be used a lot but roll playing can effect more than the dice. be wise and use all you have to hand.
my default answer when asked for things for your character (that you would not normally get or be able to do) or setting will be 'NO, let me think about it'. meaning it wont happen straight away but after i have thought and made sure it wont break my game etc lol i may allow it in future.
As I said i run hard but very fair and hopefully lots of fun campaigns.
Also where exactly are we starting this, are we starting over or where are we coming back to
shouldve asked this alot sooner haha
Game starts tomorrow guys, read the previous game threads if you haven't already, to catch up.
Archaouss, you have Sybils diary and Elon, you have the pages torn from it. You are both making your way towards the explosion. Along with Velana who has not long woken up and (from the sounds of it) had a good time the night before.
I WILL CHANGE ONE THING. Simply that Archaouss has caught up to you Elon and Velana so my original players are all heading up together.
hope that answers your question as well Archaouss.
I will post tomorrow and the game can start as soon as I have posted in the game thread, the post will be a small recap and let new players know where they are in relation to everything.
looking forward to it, can't wait guys.
Little Finder
ok so no recap, decided throw you all in at the deep end hehe. but game has started, hope you all enjoy.
awesome.
General note to players: Roll what ever skill you feel you character would use at any point, I won't prompt every time a skill roll would be used, just when it is necessary for the story, use your instincts. If it isn't needed or appropriate I will simply not take the roll into account and explain why. Use the adage 'better to have it and not need it.'. lol
Ok, having a brain fart here. How the heck do I post my important combat stats and such so that it appears next to my alias name? I've done it before but I will be damned if I can remember how to do it.
When I edit my alias I put it next to 'full name' and thats not doing it.
Cheers
PS I'm back from my vacation and the road grime has been washed away. I should be able to post with great frequency from now on.
Alas I really dont know. I tend to use hero lab for all that, so never thought twice about it.
Testing testing one two three everyone alive?
Yeah I am alive and posting. Not had a lot to respond to though, hence not posting a massive amount
Posting seems to have slowed down a bit over the holiday period (I believe it has been labor day fro our American players? forgive me if i got that wrong, I don know a lot about holidays outside of the UK.), I'm trying to wait for everyone to post before I reply, but will start replying more often if it stays an issue.
In case it isn't clear, you guys can edit the maps, you can delete your names and write them in the square your character is in. Unless I say otherwise all maps with be like this.
Back from the land of no internet!
Good to see you back Velana, how did the holiday period treat you?
few notes, you are not it not the same room as the creature at the moment. So you can not see it, you are by the entrance in a different room, your perception roll will get you some information however and when you choose what to do your initiative roll will be taken into account.
will put more on the game thread.
we are out of combat now guys. Well out of initiative order anyway. Post as you would. Velana and Archaouss you can post without spoilers now, thank you for doing that for me so I could read the posts better. Much appreciated.
Elon, Carth you are both still under the effects of the failed will saves etc till Argius or another character can do a heal check on you.
I've been super-busy, starting new job and moving house at the same time... all worked out though, it's a great house for us.
Glad to be back.
Sorry all. Out ti dinner with the family. Will post later tonight.
Congratulations on new job and house Velana, not to worry, Ive not long moved myself and I am looking for a new job. Hope where you are is nice.
Ok feeling a bit brain fartish here but how do I get my character stats to appear in the top of my posts? Ive done it before but now it isnt working.
Put the information into the classes levels section and i think it will turn up there.
Testing but not sure that was it. I want my primary numbers like ac, ffac, hp and so on
Ah so you need to put other stats in there?bahaha.
Yeah if you put all the stats like AC Initiative etc there, then they come up as being next to your name. I just tried it and its worked for me.
Testing
Thats the ticket. Thanks! Gotta work on the formatting today.
Feel free to discus what you want to ask Argius in here, calibrate before you reply in character.
a couple of my players havn't posted in a few days, where have you all gone? lol
I haven't really got anything I want to ask the guy. I have information on the guy that I can't share right now. Therefore just want to move on to Paul.
Btw, I alas wont be able to post from Thursday through to Monday. LARP event near me is the final one in the current system, so should be really interesting.
I want to know more about the orbs. Why is there a creature trapped inside? Are they sentient? What are their powers?
I also want to kknow more about Argius himself and even the mysterious Mr Graves.
So, pretty much what I wanted to ask Krallek, minus a few other ones. Something along the lines of where the hell does he fit the hammer? And how does he have the right powers to prevent the creatures evil powers?
Carth, can you take the point on the questioning? Krallek doesn't have those kinds of skills unless you want him to break teeth to get the answers.
Or anyone else for that matter.
My aplogies I have been very sick with no movtivation at all to get on and post sorry about that
Hope you feel better soon Archaouss, health before post, Im glad you have not disappeared.
From what I understand, Galcia & Krallek are asking their questions after Carth. So I will respond to the questions in order of Carth, Galacia then Krallek. I am not ignoring your questions guys.
Just to point out, the question order should probably go Galacia, Krallek then me (considering I am sort of following on from Krallek's post)
You are correct Carth, I miss read 'Argius' in Galcia's post. I will respond shortly.
Had a busy day today, Had a job interview at my local art library, shall be posting as Sandy tomorrow. sorry for the delay guys.
Everyone please pick 1 magic weapon, with 1 magic enchantment of your choice. (the enchantment is in top of the +1 it takes to make a item magic. Any enchantment you want)
+1 Axiomatic Quarterstaff please for me.
So any +1 enchantment correct?
