Hey, it's not your fault you didn't get the notification. Glad to have you back with us before the fight starts.
Rd 1 FIGHT!
Woo
Yeah sorry about that I've been rarther scatterbrained myself recently. Lots of personal stuff and so on.
I'll be at a wedding today; will have a post up sometime tomorrow.
Ok
Out of town the past few days. The next post will be a big one, and I haven't had enough uninterrupted time to do it. Tomorrow, I hope.
I have a trip for work; leaving this afternoon, gone all day tomorrow, and back late tomorrow night. Will try to respond to posts quickly, but may have to be terse depending on what's going on. At least my meeting tomorrow won't be in one of those places that doesn't allow cell phones.
I think there's a way to put campaign updates on an RSS feed, but I'm not sure how. Now that I look at the RSS feed icons in the upper RH corner of the page, there's one that gives a mouseover text "Subscribe to gameplay posts for this campaign."
there's a button for RSS feed at the top of the page. I've no idea how to use it, but that's a suggestion.
Thanks for the heads-up, Berbas. Sorry it didn't click for you.
Ive been flagged for the dubious honor of jury duty tomorrow. I'll update if I can.
Gallowsmith also sent a scroll of restoration with the new arrivals, so Eretria has been cured of the last remnants of the seugathi's aura effects.
I'm going to have to step down from this campaign unfortunately.
thanks carbide, for the opportunity, and good luck to you guys with the rest of the story.
As I said elsewhere, congrats on the promotion, and good luck with work. Thanks for playing.
OK, that brings us down to 4+2.5 (the pseudodragon only counts as half), without a lot of healing. I can try to tailor the opposition to that, or if anyone knows someone who'd be interested in playing have them contact me. Trying to do another open recruitment at this point would slow things down more than they already have been, so I'm reluctant to do that if I don't need to. Opinions?
Crack on young man!
Wands of healing are cheap!
It's not heroic world-saving if you don't win out against the odds :D
I already bought a wand of CLW.
We just need to kill the bad guys really fast and get a couple more wands.
Me, Elesandria can both use them.
Eretria also has a decent chance of using one.
Which brings us back to the matter at hand. Imizael and Hops elected to stay behind with Torvald and company, for reasons too complex to detail here. The party is currently looking at the possibility of taking a detour into an uncharted cavern complex, or continuing on towards Lightning's Call, having learned that something (or things) may have breached the deep road.
So we have what?
Summoner
Ranger
Inquisitor
Sorcerer
I may have someone. I'll ask him to pm you.
Thanks. Don't forget, btw, that you've also got Ava and Selveshanea, both of whom are pretty fair melee combatants.
Hello. Duncan Redhammer, aka STR Ranger, suggested that I check in to possibly filling a cleric spot. I enjoy playing clerics so that won't be an issue. I'm a steady player in couple campaigns and I DM two pretty successful games on the boards.
Check out my profile and if you want me to generate a character let me know guidelines.
Thanks, Baldwin. Will do in a couple of hours; I have a meeting or two and a lot of paperwork to get through.
Sorry about the delay; ended up with a late lunch when a meeting ran long, which pushed into other meeting times. Anyway, character generation guidance is in the Recruitment thread HERE, in the first post and the post from June 6, 2013. Let me know if you have any questions.
I'll put something together and will get it up by tomorrow, if that's ok with you.
That was in the second post I referenced but didn't point directly to; 5th level, and I expanded the permissible source material. When I started this campaign, none of the Ultimate sourcebooks were out yet.
I just read the second post, sorry, I edited my original message.
I'm still working on the character concept but I have a question are you permitting Variant Channel out of UM?
Sure.
I'm still working out the character concept. Debating if I want to be more of melee cleric or a supportive cleric. Does the group have a preference?
We've not had much experience together so it's hard to judge what we need.
Play what you would most enjoy.
What Elesandira said.
I'm still working on equipment and I may tinker with a few other minor components.
This is Dashel de Penderwon, cleric of Iomedae.
How are HP determined?
Dashel is equipped and ready to go.
HP: Max at first level; 1d3+5 for each level thereafter.
Character concept:
I decided to be the buffer/melee cleric type. Lots of buffering type spells to boost the groups attacks, AC, and saves. Then he wades on into close melee. He is pretty useless with ranged weapons and he's slow as molasses.
His tactics domain permits a character to roll twice for initiative. This can be a huge boost especially for a spellcaster or rogue to get the jump on controlling the battlefield. Since we have a sorcerer, Eretria Whitethorne, she would be a good option for that bonus.
Dashel looks good. One question before I start work on getting you together with the party: where on Golarion are you from?
Good ol' Westcrown in Cheliax.
The dwarf chokes on his ale.. *COUGH!* ..Whaddaya mean some spindly human's got more HP than me? Cannae be true. I'm a dwarf dammit. That's it. P!$$!ng contest for EVERYTHING! You an me!
The dwarf rolls his sleeves up and slams a fresh flagon on the table across from him in challenge for the newcomer to drink.
"Aye...let me go get those tankards for us being the newcomer and all." He saunters off to the bar and decides to play a joke on the burly dwarf, speaking a short prayer he purifies the dwarf's ale before returning to the table. "Here you go friend...enjoy these holy spirits." He clinks tankards with the fella and holds his hand out in friendship.
The dwarf naturally goes for the Ale, downing it so fast it scarcely has time to touch his tongue but it is enough.
Alcohol in sufficient amounts is a poison, dwarves had a strong resistance to poisons, which explained their talent for drinking.
Dashiel had 'purified' it. So it was non-alcoholic ale flavored water.
The dwarf smacked his lips, refreshed but not expecting clean liquid.
Ha! Deceived! Knew ye dinnae have the stones fer a drinking contest wit a dwarf. Lucky yer sword arm shows some muscle or I'd think ye a weakling. Bet yer one o them teetolteller templars. All discipline and no vice? Well hangin' round me'll fix that!
The dwarf pulls a personal sealed flagon from his belt.
I drank yer blessed brew, fair's fair ye drink mine! Dwarves o faith always keep some Holy drink about, though we make ours in hops. Bottom's up!!
He hands the drink to Dashiel's left and shakes his right heartily.
Don't worry bout keeping up the drink. Hardly a fair contest. We'll keep count o deserving dead foes instead aye? That holy symbol yer sportin, people tend to ferget the Inheritor is a WAR god. Prissy one, but a WAR god still. Be pleased ta stand wit ye.
The cleric cracks a smile as he reaches for the dwarf's "Holy Water," "Here's to keeping the faith," as he downs a long deep swig. Then wiping his lips with the back of hand, "her Glory shines brightly in the darkest places to weed out the scum that inhabits the land. My sword arm is very strong and it is guided by my faith and convictions, but don't confuse her willingness for an honorable surrender my friend with indecision, she can be just as aggressive as Angradd in the end." He waves for a couple more tankards of ale.
