Can I just use the turn that I replaced with healing Dargain? It's rolled up and everything.

I used it, you pushed the wouned archer over the edge into neg HP. We're ready for round 3.

What are we going to do with Aldo? NPC him?

I have a question I should have asked during recruitment but I thought it would be okay as is. I was so keen on the idea of being a Templar that I didn't look over the Paladin build very well......My character would have been better as an inquisitor than a paladin. Bad build on my part. Would it bother you if I changed my class a bit. Not much would change. I haven't used any pally abilities. I can work it so my HP is the same. The only real change would be my BAB and 2 additional skill points. I think inquisitors should be included among the classes that relate to the Order. This is all up to you. I don't want to take any fun away from you as the DM. I'll just deal with what I got if the answers no. Okay?


I've got some 'things' planned...I think you'll be happy with being a Paladin...I don't want to give anything more away...

Okies. Then how bout we alter the class just a tad to allow my wisdom to effect my abilities as opposed to my non existent charisma modifier? Just wonderin.


Male Human

God! Why do all of my damage rolls suck?!


Male Mazinger-type Fan of Go Nagai level 38

Asking because it should be a lot better for handling combats, do you know maptool DM nick ? Don't want to look like a know-all, just curious, but the maps with coordinates and heroes/foes pic are a great help.
You just need to link the map throu a sharing software.


Male Human

Jeez, we really don't have enough healing magic to make this work. Nick, didn't you mention that magic item crafting (potions & such) was at a lower entry in this campaign?


Male Mazinger-type Fan of Go Nagai level 38

Sean is right, or we recruit another mage or DM begins to NPC Aldo. Of course this cannot go on forever, we would anyway need to replace him sooner or later.

Edit: unless we introduce a magic system similar to the game,with spells costing mana points and with mana regenerating itself at a given rate :)


Male Human

We seem to have stalled.


Male Mazinger-type Fan of Go Nagai level 38

I understand if the GM has problems getting online, but since we are almost at chapter two i'll wait and see.


Sorry for the wait, I've had to grade and give mid-terms this week. New post is up, and we'll be finishing chapter 2 once you decide what to do. . For this campaign you will be receiving MAX hitpoints at each level...so you will be MUCH touhger at level 2. I prefer VERY hard, dangerous fights, to many 'walk in the parks'. I know it's been pretty hard, but you've been fighting CR 3-4's so far...not CR1.

It's been fun, that's not the problem. :) Max HP will really help, but so will some other forms of healing.


Male Mazinger-type Fan of Go Nagai level 38

Seemed a bit too hard, well more fun, more XP and more rewards :)
But we'll definitively need more healing magic.


The cost for creating a potion of cure light wounds is 10 gold coins. Such potions can be sold for 10 gold coins. The ease of making such potions means they have little resell value, and so the potion for profit industry focuses on other potions. Thus, shops stock only a small supply of such potions, as most adventures make them themselves.
The normal cost of creating a potion of cure light wounds is 25 gold. It has been reduced to 10 gold coins to encourage PC's to make their own potions. In addition, casters receive brew potion as a bonus feat at 2nd level.


Male Human

Alright, awesome. That'll really help out.


Are we going to use the +1 quarterstaff or to sell it? Kalyn has no use for it, but it is the only magic weapon we have so far...of course we are only level 1 yet, i'm expecting much more stuff :)

I vote to sell it. It's useless to Aloris with his dismal strength score, and I think it's worse (even with the +1) than both our melee types' weappons.


I have included it for accuracy's sake rather than any other reason. All Darkspawn casters use at least a +1 quarterstaff as weapon of choice.

I'd figured this was the case.

I don't have Detect magic. Also, I have a few traits I forgot to ask you about. I don't think orcs and goblins exist in Ferelden. Can my Hatred bonus be against darkspawn and my AC bonus from defensive training work against ogres?


Read over the class changes for paladin in the recruitment thread...
Paladin-The Paladin is known as the Templar in Ferelden. They seek out evil, demons, undead and apostates. The Paladin class has been changed as follows. Paladins must be humans, or city-elves.
Paladins may use the ability detect magic at will. This is addition to detect evil
Divine Shield- A paladin who uses a shield may add it to their touch AC.
Alignment-A paladin must be lawful good, or lawful neutral. He loses all abilities of he willingly commits an evil or chaotic act. He must atone as per the spell atonement

-You'd get the bonus AC versus Ogres, yes. Darkspawn count as orcs or goblins yes.


Male Dwarf Templar lvl 1

Right, Herolab is the character sheet I've been using and it doesn't have some of those changes. I am updating my profile so I won't forget again. A new way of playing is a tad hard to get used to. I apologize for any inconvenience on your end.


Yeah...no worries. Detect magic is a pretty useful ability for a templar. All Darkspawn are evil...so smite works.

Don't set yourself on fire. It makes the internet slow here in the PRC.
You all level up! Remember


I'm sorry about the delays, but try to remember that the apartment turned off the water today. In other words, utilities are not too reliable, and I can lose interent for days at a time. I've even lost power for 24 hours. Could the people who are still playing check in before I go ahead with chapter 2? I'd like to recruit some more players if we need to. Thanks


I don't mind the delays, i'm still in. We lack an arcane caster, and a dedicated healer too, but in this setting they are the same.
I think we should recruit another player.


Does anybody know how to get more players? Or am I just really bad at recruiting? Suggestions please? I've posted twice in the recruitment thread...


Male Mazinger-type Fan of Go Nagai level 38

Lately recruiting seems more difficult, i've had problems with my game too. Only things i can think of is asking to RL players we know

Only I don't have RL players...

On an aside...I won't get my contract renewed...so I'm looking for work in a bigger city...either Harbin proper...or Changchun in Jilin. Maybe I'll find 2 or 3 gamers...never say never.


Male Mazinger-type Fan of Go Nagai level 38

I can try asking to a friend. He isn't very good at english but that can be solved (google tranlator and some help from my part)


If youd tell him what's going on in Italian, I think he could figure out what's up. I'm still confused, as I started this cause I couldn't get into a pbp game. Now it seems nobody else wants in?


Male Mazinger-type Fan of Go Nagai level 38

how much people do we need? Only one more if Dargail, Maraas and Aloris are still in right?


Male Dwarf Templar lvl 1

I am still here. Just chillin and being patient. Easy to be patient when I have finals to keep me busy......and Skyrim


Yep same here

One of the advantages of china is xbox games cost $1...
...one of the disadvantages is that $1 xbox games can corrupt the software on your hacked xbobx.
Now I can't even watch DVDs.
