GiantSlayer Book 3: Forge of the Giant God
Part 3: Cathedral of minderhal
The heroes must infiltrate the ruined temple of an ancient giant god and defeat the Storm Tyrant’s lieutenant to prevent the warlord from gathering an even larger army. Within the cathedral, the adventurers also discover a powerful artifact that they must reactivate before they can make use of its magic.

One of you had better be able to use that dwarven plate!!!
In looking back, it seems that no new loot has been added to the pile since Kiln died, so there's no "loot list" to check through.
Anyone have a stack of arrows for me, so I can be more useful in combat?
I suppose it's now a holy shortbow +2.

Ok Heroes, today begins the last of great adventure of my summer. I'm off to Summer Camp with the Scouts BSA Troop today for a week. That will be immediately followed by my family's reunion.
I should be back online and ready to continue saving, or subjugating, the world on 19 July.

I have a running total of arrows on my profile. Should be enough to share with you.
No to the dwarven plate or any of the other magic items. Would just take my share of the sold items and make some purchases or upgrades if possible.

Glad to see the post go up. Looking forward to seeing what people come up with.
Also, as holy is allowed from the forge, Aggrimosh has that enchantment. With weapon of the chosen, his one attack will be lawful and good aligned.

Speaking just for myself…I think it is best for us to recruit whatever people want to play without worrying about roles.
Sven is divine, but he is a competent warrior being a battle Oracle. If someone wanted to play a divine caster focusing on spells in combat, or a fighter on the front lines, then neither would step on his toes.
Kurag is a damn good archer and has plenty of practical skills.
Hawthorne, as a bard, has lots of skills and is arcane.
Pretty much anything from a fighter to a sorcerer would flesh the group out.

Plenty of great submissions. I don’t envy our GM choosing.
NARRATOR Skirgaard GS Map / SS MAP/
Hey Players! So this is how it is going to work. Since this is your game, I want you all to have a say in who gets chosen. Please PM me your rankings with 1 being the most desirable down to 8 being the least. I will tally all of your rankings with my own and the submission with the best i.e. lowest total will be selected. Again please PM me your rankings do not post here or the recruitment thread.
I believe that Hawthorne is still out of town, so I will wait for his rankings before a selection is made.
I agree with Sven, it will be very difficult to rank!

If we pick two, then I'd want to know who was first place, so I could then decide what I want as our second.

I have rankings from everyone but Kurag. Once I have his, I will announce the newest member!
Did you all want to recruit two players?

2 sounds good to me. Makes for a good party size, and if someone drops out we aren't back in the hotseat.
NARRATOR Skirgaard GS Map / SS MAP/
I have all the rankings and I just PM'd each of you with the rankings so you can confirm that the top two are who we should invite. Once I hear back from you all, I will extend the invitation. There was really no agreement in our rankings as we all picked different ones for our number 1 & 2 spots, but since they both ranked well overall, they would be the picks.
Male Dwarf Bard 10 HP: 100/100 AC: 23 TCH: 15 FF: 18 CMD: 22 | F+4*, R+12*, W+7*

Hi hello! Thanks so much for the invitation, I'm looking forward to getting into things.
For right now, is there a particular preference on how we handle our stat line, or does format not matter so much as long as we've got all our relevant information in there?

Welcome to both of you! I have an extra weapon which has become really good thanks to the forge we were just in. If either our new cleric or Paladin wants it, I’d gladly pass it on:
* Liquid Glass Pickhammer (Warhammer) +1 Holy (This heatstone-derived glass is warm to the touch and slightly malleable, as if it were still liquid. A pliable nature allows this otherwise razor-sharp crystal to repair itself when it takes damage. An item made from liquid glass repairs damage to itself at a rate of 2 hit points per day, even if the weapon is broken or destroyed (but not if the weapon is destroyed in a way that the pieces cannot be retrieved, such as via disintegrate). If a weapon made from liquid glass has full hit points, it grants a +1 bonus on damage rolls. Items made from liquid glass have 10 hit points per inch of thickness and hardness 10.)

I'll gladly take it (it's a great option if I want more damage instead of sickening targets, or when they're immune to fear). But if Gilde wants it as well, I'll happily let them have it and stick with mine.

It is cool, I never remember to look at special weapon materials until one of them comes up in a game and I get reminded to go read through the list. I think I'd struggle to find a situation where it'd be better for Gilde to use that over her regular weapon, though, so it's all yours!

So, where are we going next? I joined right before we went into the Giants' Temple. Now that we've accomplished this, I'm not quite tracking where the next step is.
Also, glad to hand the hammer over to Ingrid. I'll remove it from my character sheet.

Brother Hawthorne is a recent add to the group as well! Found a prisoner out on the plains.

@Sven:
"While you had searched the Cathedral, you had found some papers in Urathash's possession that mentioned a giant's training camp where Urathash was to send the most promising recruits. The camp is located in the village of Skirgaard.
Skirgaard sits atop a plateau in the Mindspin Mountains approximately 150 miles south-southwest of the Cathedral of Minderhal."
@All:
Now the AP wants the PC's to use subterfuge and sabotage to throw the giant training camp into chaos. The idea being that with enough chaos the recruits will grow frustrated and leave.
Somehow, I feel this would play out better on a tabletop game, but we will see.
If it isn't working please let me know and we will pivot...

Wait we need subterfuge and stealth so we add a paladin and a priestess of Torag to the group...now he tells us lol.
The paladin arrives to challenge each giant to solo combat while the priestess continually heals her. The rest of us takes bets on who is going to win or knock her out first. We bankrupt the giants and send them home for the win!
Playing to the strengths of the party, oh yeah.
