Crypt of the Everflame (Inactive)

Game Master Nathan Hartshorn

It sounded like you guys had a plan to chase a circus... so my vote is continue with that plan.

I vote creepy carnival. "Something Wicked This Way Comes" is one of my favorite children's movies.

Ok guys...Work is giving me more problems than I can deal with this week.

Please Bot my character as needed until Sunday or so.

NOTE: I just realized I haven't leveled Gad yet to 7th. I forgot to finish him up. I will try and do so this weekend. The differences are minor at best for now: +1 BAB, some skill points, nothing special.

Anyway I apologize for all of this.

New HPs:
New HD: 1d10 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 1 = 10

Awesome!
=)

OK...I'm updated. Sorry about the delay.

Hey Guys!

I have a minor request...

If you are are GM on the PBPs here, my Skulls and Shackles group is looking for a new GM, since our last one ghosted on us. We are almost/about half-way though the AP?

If interested, or know someone who is interested, here is the thread:

HERE.

I love those Feather Tokens! Next time we are somewhere I can buy or have some made I will try and get a replacement and maybe a few more.

I also created several in my published book (pdf) too that I think are pretty cool.

=)

Congrats man! That is pretty cool, hopefully Tamran will have the whole gambit in stock. I remember seeing some that spawn siege weapons, and uh yeah Viv does want to rain hell down onto this carnival from a hilltop in the night.

Are we still live?

Still alive, barely. Going through a lot of personal stuff myself.

Fair enough. Just making sure.

Still here, summer is always madness, I'll get a post up tonight. I'm sorry.

I'll be out of state until Sunday evening so posting will be light until Monday morning.

Understood.

Aliiivveeee! We're alivvveee!!!! Hahahahahaha!!!!!

=)

I guess I wasn't paying attention, cause I wasn't able to access until 15 minutes ago.

You were ok. It went down again.
My bad!

Haven't been able to get on for days.

Still here.

=)

:(

Well...I hate to say this, but should we call this?

Haven't even heard from the GM in over two weeks.

I was worried this might happen after the loss of our Kingmaker game.

I'm still around. But no one's responding to the city, Qina's story, or going anywhere in Nirmathas. I could post more descriptions of the city if you guys think that'll keep everyone going...

I hate to admit it but I think I'm in agreement with Gad. We've lost almost all of our momentum and several players. I'm still here and active but I don't think Gad and I can do it alone and I don't really want to go through recruiting new players. I think our group was incredible and I'd rather not force it or alter the dynamics with new people.

I hate to admit it, but I agree with Qina.

Let's give everybody a few more days...til the weekend?...to respond and put out their opinion as to where we go from here, if at all.

If we hear nothing then we call it.

Fine by me. We got through the main story, left the adventurers off in a good place to continue their journeys, and had a great time. I'll write an epilogue as necessary.

I'm here, but more busy than before.

I'm proud we did the main arc, that was an awesome two years and I think it turned out really well. GM Fez, you surpassed our expectations when we were looking for a new GM back in the Crypt, thank you so much for bringing us all the way.

With the slowed momentum, but mostly importantly to me the loss of half the group, I think we should lay this story down with an epilogue. It seems natural with departures of so much of the party.

Busy, busy, busy.

But here.

I'm sorry to say I agree with the team. I think we've been flagging for a while now and I can't see us reversing that. I've had the best time with you all and this is by far the best RPG experience I've had. You've taken me from a gaming novice to someone who feels confident to play on these boards allong side the best, which is what you are. Thank you all.

I conversely hope to play with each and every one of you again.

[Edit] Just a thought... I feel, as I have said, that this story has come to its conclusion. Would anybody be up for starting afresh? Recruiting some fresh blood, rolling fresh characters and heading out to new ground? We already have at least half a party. Just a thought... [/Edit]

I would love to pick back up our Kingmaker game?

But I wouldn't mind a new game either.

I'm always open for pretty much anything. I would love to return to Kingmaker as well. I'm as willing to whip up new characters.

Kingmaker would be tough, Wendell and Alfint are missing and Fez wasn't in the game.

A new game is always enticing, but is everyone up for posting 3 or 4 times a week again? This one is partially retiring because of silence.

Fez, what interests you, do you have the bandwidth for a new venture?

You know..we did discuss playing our 'Kids' in a future game.

Maybe this is a good time to try out the Ironfang Invasion AP?
=)

I'm up for whatever. My weekends have been killed by housework, but I'm good for posting at least once a day otherwise. I'm working on an epilogue right now.

I'd love to do Ironfang Invasion. I think fresh characters could be the catalyst that's needed.

Sounds good to me.

Im game for Ironfang Invasion. I guess it's up to Fez unless someone else is able to take up the mantle of GM?

I'm in! Although I'm sad to see Gad go. He's been one of the most steady/well built characters I have ever had. Fun too. Maybe we can come back to these guys at a later date? =/

Anyway...I have to say the character idea for Gad's adopted daughter that I originally came up with? I already used on another PBP!
=)

I like the idea of Ironfang AP too. Fairly straight forward AP from what I can tell. Fewer dungeon crawls, but sounds like some mass combat and guerilla warfare stuff that can make up for that!

I can run it, just need to pick up some things and read over the first chapter. I'll make a discussion thread and link it here for everyone to jump over to.

Awesome!

Can't wait to see what I can build on...

Agreed, definitely an Oread descendant of Vivian if the race is allowed. As the thought of Ironfang is sinking in I'm starting to feel some hype!

So hyped for this!

The nice thing about having some of the group already formed is that we can build characters together to a degree. (You can help me)

I have a couple of ideas I'd love your collective thoughts on, but until we get a new thread I shall keep you in suspense...

Fair enough.

Well, I know I've been dying to try out a Keneticist, but if those aren't allowed, then I was thinking of building a tried and true Ranger or Slayer who specializes with a bow. Half-Orc unless some of the more exotic races are available.

Are we running with us four or are we looking to recruit more?

Most APs are designed for 4-6 players. I say it is up to the GM in the end really.

I'm fine with 4 really, and if any of the others come back, then they can roll up a character and just jump in!

Or...optionally:

If the GM really wants to Rumble? We could make Gestalt characters. Combine two classes to make a new one basically. 4 players can then often take on almost anything 6 normally can.

Ah yes, Gestalt. Fez would need to turn up the dial on the encounters a few notches. Know what I'd play though.

No gestalt...too many bad experiences with that insanity. We'll go with us five, potential to add more in the future. I still need to look over a few things, but until then here is the discussion thread for character creation.
