Worked 6am - 1230pm. Then went to a mates for drinks and bbq. Nice enough day. Day off today.
Sorry guys, I'm a little in over my head ATM. In addition I'll be on a trip to Vienna from tomorrow. Could you please npc Ascaria for that time? I hope everyone's still alive when I'm back :-)
Go team Riddleport! Cut their tonkers off!
Omg. We're famous!
I'm loving this. It's challenging to GM and I hope it's rewarding for you also. Forcing the story on after this though.
GM, can I get confirmation that my 5-foot step was in fact okay? His intention is to step into the square that would have been flanking if Marcus hadn't killed the thug first so he doesn't provoke when he takes out and drinks his potion.
Yeah Tipster. The 5ft and potion was fine. It was the further movement that wasn't allowable.
Cowboys defeated Broncos 33 to 16.
Micheal Morgan with 3.
I swear this kid is gonna win us the flag.
Oppositions are so worried about Thurston and Bowen that Morgan doesn't get marked and can take sides apart.
Go team Riddleport! Cut their tonkers off!
Pay no attention to that no good Calistrian Harlot. No telling what he'll catch off her.
*Drags Andrea back to the Council of Theives thread*
Yeah Tipster. The 5ft and potion was fine. It was the further movement that wasn't allowable.
Oh!! I understand. That square I gave was to show where he went with his five foot step, since there were two options that put him out of reach. That's all.
I might start plotting some Calistrian vengeance on my healing dice...
I don't know...Ethaniel will follow Marcus and Tippy into certain death against a gang of thieves, but he's got some issues when it comes to gendarmes...
Now that the gang is on the run, he might just bolt.
Up to you dude. I won't be offended, play your char....Someone may need to bail me out if I get arrested!

I totally dig this! I don't know if this is a story encounter, a random encounter, or GM-crafted add-on but it's really cool. On the one hand I don't have a clue who these guys are and what they want from us and that makes it feel that there is something bigger going on that we don't know yet. On the other hand I love battles that last for more than three rounds. That's when tactics start to really matter.
Tactics? What's that?
That's when the big strong guy stops a moment to ponder if it is a wise idea to take on a whole gang of bandits in broad daylight :-P
I see a bandit. I stab him. He dies. That's my tactics.
Sorry guys, I'm a little in over my head ATM. In addition I'll be on a trip to Vienna from tomorrow. Could you please npc Ascaria for that time? I hope everyone's still alive when I'm back :-)
Vienna? Wicked!
Sorry about my absence. THings got really busy this week and I've not yet had a chancce to catch up. I didnt wnat to lose my place in the main thread... :P
Feel free to bot me, and bear with me for a few more days!
I'm hoping Iscarel has time to post on the gamethread soon. Giving him 24hrs.
Thanks for botting me thus far! I did half of my catchup this morning and did the rest just now. I'll try not to disappear for that length of time again, though Waife's rolls were amazing. It seems he makes a better Iscarel than Iscarel. :P
Uni, work, and an increasingly more demanding girlfriend tore me away from my Pathfinder books for a few weeks, and with a friend joining my other pbp and me dropping out of another (I figured this one was more deserving of my posts!) it took me a while to get around to the hundred-or-so posts in this thread, though I'm sure the father-of-two is much more busy. Sorry once again for my absence!
Looks like I've just met the cutoff for spitting some snark at Saul, so I'll just make a low-key entry and focus on the happenings tonight.
All good. Glad things are simmering down for you.
same for me.
Prodding Ethaniel. I spoke to you in my last post! :P
Sorry! I seem to have overlooked it.
D'oh! And here I overlooked Waife's post! How good are we, right? :P
Fires up the VCR and hidden camera. :3

LOL! Yeah... I get the feeling - yon elf maide... ...er 'Lady of Passions' likes herself a bit of mingled elf-blood every-so-often! Elven women ARE a little more petite than human women. Half-elven men ARE a little... er more 'robustly built' than elven men! LOLS!
Yeesh, for all the dirty work these abbesses have me doing I just cant seem to catch a break with them. You're a cruel man, Waife.
Don't take it personally. It's just the way she is.
I know, I jest, I jest. But I'd like something to do but whisper in corners tonight. Nothing seems to go my way in this city, does it?
Would getting some poison be out of the question? I've been meaning to do it in character, but I missed the latest block of downtime! That is if I can afford any...
Nothing goes your way? When it comes to people? That's cause your not likeable. Lol.
You'll need to wait for the next down time call.
Hey! I've been perfectly affable among my own people at the temple! It's the party and Zincher I save all my bile for. :p
Actually yeah, for a high charisma char, iscarelis a bit of an a$$.
;)
Just cause you can be charming doesn't mean you are. You can turn it on and off. hehe. I think his switch is broken. In which position?
It's a tricky balance to make, to be sure. Everyone (including Tam) seem to write him off as a snake on sight, though. Perhaps I'm overplaying my nasty streak? I've been trying to strike for a one on one conversation since I jumped back in to hint at some appreciation for Marcus saving my hide, but these damnable womenfolk keep dragging us every which way! :P
... also I'm sort of delaying my character development for some kind of homecoming. Perhaps it was not the best way to plan out my character.
Iscarel, I can't open that spoiler you made for Tippy. Can you redo it, if you remember what it said? Thanks.
Marcus saved you because you are a teammate. He still doesn't like Iscarel.
But he has moved past the brothel incident.
The main reason he does not like Iscarel is he seems to have no respect for anyone.
Now wait a minute! Tam is nothing but reservedly polite to everyone... especially prickly Calistrians who seem to thrive on taking offense and getting revenge! :)
It's not that Tam treats Iscarel as if he were a snake as more that Tam does not get chummy with anyone he has no previous dealings or knowledge of. He is VERY cautious not to attach himself to anyone who he has not made the measure of. He's had years of folly under his father's ungentle tutelage to teach him the error of that!
As for his growing friendship with Marcus.. he has seen his valor and courage.. proven in battle in his refusal to abandon a comrade! As far as Desna is concerned no greater devotion can be made than to defend ones allies with one's life in risk trusting to luck and skill to see one through!
Tam does not know much about Iscral and ... his father's influence has made his very cautious of elves from Kyonin as, Tiam - his father, is a wanted criminal from there and Tam looks Soooo much like him! So Tam is not readily going to get 'chummy' with elves... even if he is interested in knowing more about them... though he would NEVER admit that!
Tam has no idea what crimes his father is guilty of in Kyonin... kidnapping and murder he expects... but he certainly knows his father never went within 1,000 leagues of that 'accursed land'... as he always put it. Tam does not want to be confused with his father's crimes due this his similarity in appearance.
"The Sins of the Father of the burdens of his sons!"
Tam does not have a 'fatherless-boy' complex.. he had a father and he was a terrible dad!!!
I notice also... at least Iscaral is getting the npc's to talk to him... Tam usually gets ignored! LOL! but I'm enjoying the story none-the-less. You can keep all the drama... Tam's got his own problems - in his own head!
hehe!
Iscarel, I can't open that spoiler you made for Tippy. Can you redo it, if you remember what it said? Thanks.
Huh. Me neither. Fixed!
I select what posts are most important with the time I have available. Yes, I may intentionally ignore a post for a time but I do always intend on answering it.

LOL! Please take not offense at my words meant in jest.. they were not a chastisement of you DM_Waife! I realize that sometimes one must wait quietly for the lime-light as it were. The main story plots take precedence especially since this, encounter-plot has been building for sometime. :)
EDIT: Wow.. that's odd! Why does this forum change words sometimes in your posts?
"The Sins of the Father ARE the burdens of his sons!"...
I distinctly remember tying are not of... strange. Maybe I'm typing too fast?
Sorry guys. 4 day holiday in cairns. On the road today. Posting will be light.
Have a great trip!
I'm looking forward to this. I like her style. It makes me wish I'd tied myself to the temple a little better, to give me something to be serious about for a change.
Watching it all. Nice.
Hmmm... schemes within schemes... looks interesting.
Working hard playing catchup this week. So I'm going to try cut down on how many times a day I check the thread. Every two days rather than thrice a day might see my essays done. I should also probably start posting in my other PbP's again rather than just my favourite... :P
I'll chat with the others for the rest of the evening (I feel like Iscarel hasn't had a chance to act friendly with all this whispering in corners), but once it's time to act we can cut it all short.
... and there I go! Ignoring my own rule!
