DM B's PFS PbP The Labyrinth of Hungry Ghosts High (Inactive)

Game Master Beckett

Table 1 High Tier with Adj.
1.) Turak
2.) Emma PREGEN
3.) Jarek PREGEN
4.) Alex Mack PREGEN
5.) Omar
6.) WILL ACCEPT ONE MORE CHARACTER IF THEY ARE BETWEEN LEVELS 4-7 <first come, first serve>

This is Emma's character. So far, what do we have in terms of the group?

I like martials so my preference would be towards the bloodrager or Warpriest pregens.

We'd be using the level 4 pregens correct?

Thats correct. The 7th level version may be allowed, Im not sure off the top of my head, but the Level 4s would be much better for the group as a whole.

Here is the alchemist! :)

Can someone post the link to official pre-gens? I was looking for it on the PFS page for a different table and I could not find it...probably went right past it and did not know it.

@Omar here is the link.

Thanks!

Would the magus or vigilante be okay?

I could have sworn the Magus Pregen was not allowed, but it looks like I'm wrong. As far as I can tell, yes. However, I should mention that a large portion of the Vigilante is sort of invalidated to a degree in PFS.

I wasn't aware of that. The magus would be fun

I'll go with the hunter Pregen. Looks like it should be fun!

Where do we get the stats for the pre gens?

Where do we get the stats for the pre gens?

Enter in the link I posted here and download the sheets.

Hooray!

Hooray!

I think we are in the high tier, so you can play with a level 7 pregen, right @DM Beckett?

Oh, I thought we were doing the 4th level. I will wait for clarification .

I may play as the inquisitor pre-gen. I've never played the class before, so it should be fun to do.

If we have mostly 4th level characters, without doing the math, I would think it would take at least one 7th level to get us up into high-tier.

With several pre-gens, I would not relish our chances of surviving high-tier with a party of mostly low levels. I can bring a summoner-6 if we really plan to go high-tier. I was trying to stay with my original PC.

Well, here is the begining of the pm sent by DM Beckett to me, inviting for the game:

"I have opened up two separate tables for this game, and divided everyone up closer to level. You fall into the High Tier Game with Adjustment, and I've included a link to it below;"

So, I think that we will play this game in the high tier...

Are there benefits for playing at a higher tier?

It looks like my post from yesterday got eaten. Just for the sake of simplicity, unless you have a reason not to, (such as credit for higher level character), lets keep everyone at the 4th Level Pregens. High level ones may knock you OUT of the "with Adjustment" range and make the game very diffficult for the other characters.

1.) SirPeter -> Turak 5
2.) GNPW -> Magus Pregen 4
3.) GM Evil -> Inquisitor Pregen 4
4.) Alex Mack -> Hunter Pregen 4
5.) GM Arvis -> Omar 4

21/5 = 5, which, with 5 players and it being a Season 7 game, means High Tier with Adjustment.

Can I get everyone to post the following info: <Keep in mind this is for whatever character that will be receiving credit for this game>

Player Name:
Character Name:
PFS ID:
Faction:
Day Job Roll (or Say "None"):

Please also let me know when your character sheet is ready to go. Once this is done, I'm ready to get started.

Player Name: SirPeter
Character Name: Tûrak Kavendarth
PFS ID: 113139-1
Faction: Grand Lodge
Day Job Roll (or Say "None"): Craft (alchemy): 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (2) + 11 = 13

Ready to go!

Player Name: GM Aarvid
Character Name: Omar (or Wembly if we need a 6th level to qualify for high tier)
PFS ID: 9884-11
Faction: Scarab Sages
Day Job Roll (or Say "None"): perform: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18

Ready when others are. Let's rock (or die trying!!! :)

That's two. And actually it looks like it's Low Tier, not High. I had gotten confused somewhere. So it is Low Tier, no adjustment, as it currently stands.

As soon as I get the info from Alex, GM Evil, and GNPW, I'm ready to start.

It's really up to you. I don't really care too much about what Tier it is, I was mostly going off of an earlier assumption. Feel free to change if you like, but for my part, I like to play with the same character as previous related scenario's if I can, just for story. It is not required, and to my knowledge, there is no benefit either way, outside of knowing a few things due to personal experience, (such as what the Gloomspires are, the Orb of Stars, etc).

Since it will be runned in low tier, may I change the PC?

Yes.

Cool. I good sticking with Omar - for continuity of story if nothing else. I have to admit I was getting nervous about a party of 4th level pregens playing high-tier, so this is golden in my book.

Ok, at this point, I'm not entirely certain who we are waiting on.

1.) SirPeter -> Turak 5 -> Changing to something else

2.) GNPW -> Magus Pregen 4 -> Info posted, please alter your quick combat stats. Otherwise ready

3.) GM Evil -> Inquisitor Pregen 4 -> waiting on character and info.

4.) Alex Mack -> Barbarian 4 -> posted info, waiting on character sheet

5.) GM Arvis -> Omar 4 -> Info posted, ready to go.

Emma's Day Job Roll: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
Sven's Day Job Roll: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16

Here it is, my new PC:

Player Name: SirPeter
Character Name: Bernard Nimblefeet

Faction: The Exchange
Day job: Profession (Merchant): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (20) + 8 = 28

Sven is good to go!

Did that do it?

It did. Looks good. We will have another person joining as well. I started the other table a few days ago, so I'm really just waiting on everyone here to kick off.

1.) SirPeter -> Bernard 3 -> Info posted, Ready to go.

2.) GNPW -> Magus Pregen 4 -> Info posted, Ready to go.

3.) GM Evil -> Inquisitor Pregen 4 -> waiting on character and info.

4.) Alex Mack -> Barbarian 4 -> posted info, Ready to go.

5.) GM Arvis -> Omar 4 -> Info posted, Ready to go.

6.) PDK -> Ellismus -> please post reporting info as soon as you can.

I've been sick the last few days. My two year old brought home a demon flu that everyone promptly failed a fort save on. I'm on the men's now so I'll be good to go shortly.

Character Name: Ellismus the Blue
PFS ID: 4456-4
Faction: GL
Day Job Roll: Craft (Alchemy) including Crafter's Fortune: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (2) + 19 = 21

will put the stats soon - let me know when you expect to start this (full disclosure: online PFS virgin here... lots of face to face PFS time, but this is a first time with the online method... :P )

Im expected to start as soon as everyone has completed characters and the like. Im ready on my end. Welcome to PbP, PDK. I hope you enjoy your first game and feel absolutely free to ask any questions you might have.

@ GM Evil, no worries, and I do hope you and the family feel better soon. Im a medic with small children, myself, so I feel your pain.

Give em a shot in the tookus and be done with it :)

I have a rogue that just leveled to 3rd (waiting for the chroncile) could I use him instead of the magus>?

If you can have them up and ready to go by the time I get off tonight. It looks like we have everything we need to start, so I shall be posting the intro in approx 5 hours.

I just asked the DM about how long it would take to get the sheets. I am not home until about 4ish MST.

Since it will be runned in low tier, may I change the PC?

Are you using your grenadier for this?

If so, there will be two grenadiers! :) :) :)

"AMERICA, *&^% YEAH!" (cue to Team America theme song... let the knocking down of monuments begin! LOL)

I further notice that we both have the "Explosive Missile" discovery! LOL

I further notice that we both have the "Explosive Missile" discovery! LOL

I changed Tûrak for this character. So, you'll be the exclusive explosive grenadier. :)

We might have two halflings in the group!

Halfling gunslinger? that's an awesome concept... nice!! (IMO, there should be a trait or feat that lets you use medium-sized bullets in your guns or 1d8 bolts with small crossbows... I guess they use smaller caliber! :) )

BTW: I have heard in a recent game that ammo size no longer shrink or grow back to original size upon leaving the bow of an enlarged or reduced archer. Is this correct? The GM told me it only applies to ammo and not to bombs. Effectively, you can fire ballista bolts at people when you're 15 feet tall, but your 50-gallon barrel-sized bomb of napalm will not cause additional damage as it's a set class feature with set d6s of damage. I'm pretty sure it's still x2 on the crit though yes?

The Chronicle is ready, I just have to update him when I get home in an hour or two.
