Likewise! :D
GM That worked out well. meloriel and Nikolaus de'Shade are excellent RPers. I know Nightfiend was a touch later than the rest, but is there any more room? I can also vouch for another great RPer in Nightfiend. Nikolaus de'Shade's better half is GMing RotRL for all of us and is doing a bang up job. I mean she did recruit me - so there is that ;). If you let Nightfiend in, it would allow meloriel to play the ranger, and Nightfiend to play a healer type if interested. GMs call as always.
I am good with Nightfiend joining as well. The more the merry and it will give me a chance to ramp things up!
Thank you for the invite DM RichD, I will be working on a healer of some sort. I believe that will round out the group, as fare as class anyway. Hopefully I will be able to spend some time flushing out the character this weekend. I would feel better if I was able to submit a character with a thought out background.
Question: Are we limited to only content in the Core Rule Book and Advanced Players Guide in all aspects of development, or are we only limited to Class / Races from those books?

I've gone outside those books for everything about my character (now that I think about it...) so I think it was a soft, rather than hard guideline... (at least Rii-Chi hopes it was!)
Yeah... I was ok'd for Vanara and Unchained Monk, but then I went and chose Dirty Fighting for my feat... it fitted what I want him to do brilliantly, but I'd forgotten about the book thing by then!
@Meloriel - in case your character hasn't guessed yet, if you offer to help brush Rii-Chi's hair he'll be your friend forever!

If I hadn't played with some of you before, or if you were not recommended, I would have been more strict, but since that is not the case, I am allowing it. I just don't want someone to bring in a character so overpowered that it is no fun for the rest of the party.
I can trade Dirty Fighting if you want - I just want to be able to do combat maneuvers and dirty fighting is a great way to be able to tr most of them without having to burn fifteen trillion feats first. :)
I'm on board at Bloodcove. Character stats are posted in my profile.
Just curious for spell selection and planning. Does Rii-Chi and Munk count as humanoids for spells such as enlarge person, reduce person, charm person, etc?
Does anyone ever want an enlarge person spell? Looking at hexes for debuffs and spell for buffs.
Nightfiend's Warpriest
With the creation options a little more open, I put together a warpriest and would like to submit him for review. I should have the background, personality, and description complete soon and will add it in hopefully before we get to fare along. DM RichD if you are OK with this build, I will post in game play next.

We should do - I'm officially a humanoid with the Vanara subtype. As to Enlarge person... yes!!!! please! :)

Background, personality, and description are now complete and posted on his profile. I am going to go ahead and post in game play, if there is anything that needs to be changed or corrected, please let me know.
Thanks Rii-Chi. I did not know what your race type was as I know aasimara and tieflings do not benefit from enlarge person as they are native outsiders. I didn't know if something like that was true for you as well.
Enlarge person is a go then. I am thinking that and cure light wounds for the time being.
DM RichD if you are OK with this build, I will post in game play next.
Looks good to me!
As to Enlarge person... yes!!!! please!
King Kong?

@Munkustrap: Just want to make sure you are still with us.
Sorry everyone for my absence. I had no idea how much this thread exploded. I will keep up much better in the future RL and all.
Just an FYI...
This Wednesday, 12/13, I will be going out of town to visit family with almost no access to the internet until the end of the year. So hang tight and I'll see you all in 2018.
Enjoy your visit, I look forward to your return.
Hey guys still here just been busy with other things and just haven't gotten into the rp yet. Will get there hopefully after this weekend. sorry for the temporary absence.
If it gets too crazy around here to mention it later this week, Happy Holidays to those of you who celebrate something! And have a great few days to those of you who don't!
@ GM - See you in the new year!
I wanted to say Happy Holidays to everyone. )
Ok I am back from vacation, and I was glad I was able to find some unsecured internet connections to keep the game going. You all have done a terrific job of RPing life on the ship.
Now comes the DM dilemma. I'd like to start the game 'officially' but I do not want to quash all the great RPing going on. So let me know when you all are ready to start.
I'm good to start whenever. Rii-Chi has got himself conflicted and needs some external stimuli to make him act one way or the other! :)
Yup, I'm good to go.
I'm good here as well.
Ready to go when you all are.
Ready
Just posting a note on gear here:
Mischa's used to keeping all of her stuff on her, including armour, as Varisian wanderers like to wear their wealth, and she's come across her fair she of thieves (both friend and foe). However, she's not currently wearing her buckler (its inside the backpack she was wearing). Also, she would have left her bedroll in her bunk, since she uses it at bedtime. I adjusted my current AC so it's accurate, and removed my bedroll from my inventory.
Thorion would be wearing his armor. His weapon would have been set off to one side of the room, where he could have gotten to it if needed. After seeing the creature that is stowed aboard the ship, he wouldn't have moved around the ship without being protected. That being said, his weapon and pack is most likely 20' away. He didn't actually have those items on his person.
Sorry for the absence with the New Year. Back now. Neltji would have nothing with her but her spell component pouch, belt pouch, dagger, Anthony, and her water skin. The rest of her gear would be stowed in her masterwork backpack.
Hi all!
Just a note on how I run combat. Feel free to post an action even if it is not your turn in the initiative. I will summarize the action. That being said, if your action would change based on what some one else does (friend or foe) I will let you change it.
i.e. The cleric is last in the initiative but posts they are going to cast a searing light. The foe goes before the cleric and critically wounds a compatriot. I would let the cleric change to casting a healing spell instead of the searing light.
I like it better this way because you might have the time to post your action now, but not have the time when it is 'actually' your turn.
So Caine, Rii-Chi and Thorion post away! Everyone else who doesn't make their perception checks feel free to post your dreams. Well, not those dreams! :P
Having to deal with a potentially dangerous troodon should a mishap occur, Caine would be wearing his armor in his awake hours - and that would include meals.
Rii-Chi doesn't really do gear... :)
He has clothes, and he wears them! (sometimes...)
DM boos as his little Sea Scorpions don't do any damage to Caine! :D
I just realized Caine also sports a dagger. I expect he'd wear that at dinnertime too since it's pretty much always on the belt...
Munkustrap would have his armor and daggers on him. Lots and lots of daggers. Will be able to post properly tomorrow.
@Caine: Can you update your tag line in your profile the same way you have for Bormann?
(I am assuming that GM is moving icons, seeing I am unable to move anything on the map. If I am incorrect on this, let me know.)
Yep. I usually move them. I know shared cloud files are blocked from me at work, and I am assuming others as well. If you all can access and want to move your own: Tactical Map
GM Before I craft my post, the Base camp rules state the most likely an NPC will fulfill the different roles. Do you want us to do that In Character or on the Discussion Thread?
If you want an NPC to take a role, I would prefer that you recruit them IC. That way you see them as allies and not just cannon fodder. ;)
Is that enough to have Aerys count as a guard and Sasha as a hunter?
Yep!
So I was a bit confused as to where we were storywise. I thought I'd share my crib notes (done from my phone on my lunch break so please correct me if I am wrong)
- Explored Jenivere Recovered maps and supplies. Did anyone record what we took?
- Set up base camp DC 12 - rolled 15 + 4 from aids = 17. Pass the DC by 7 so it took us 8-3 = 5 hours to set up base camp.
Defender: A defender works to set traps, shore up a shelter's walls, and see to the safety of the campsite. The first time in a day that a wandering monster or hostile creature attacks the campsite, the defender’s traps inflict 2d6 points of damage—divide the damage done as equally as possible among all attackers. Each additional defender
assigned to a campsite increases this damage by 2d6.
Entertainer: Gelik
Guard: Aerys
Hunter: Sasha
Medic: Jask
Unassigned: Ishirou
- Ask Ishirou to be Defender
- Decide who wants to explore and who wants to shore up Base Camp
- Decide where to explore/what quests to prioritize.
Advanced Warning: Tomorrow is both of my kids birthdays, so I probably won't be able to post. Also, their birthday party is on Saturday, so I'll be unlikely to post that day, as well.
Thanks!
@ Munkustrap: If that was posted on your phone you're AMAZING. When I type on my iPad it comes out a garbled mess, never mind on a phone...
I think that's accurate.
- I agree that someone who Ishirou likes should ask him to be defender.
- We should definitely go exploring.
- I kept track of the loot that Mischa held onto, but not the group loot. I don't see that anyone mentioned making a group loot list. But starting one would be a great idea. Volunteers?
Thanks for the summary Munk - I'm not volunteering to keep a loot list though, my IRL game is giving me enough book-keeping right now!
Rii-Chi will speak to Ishirou (although I have no idea if he likes me...)
@Munkustrap: Looks correct to me!
Anyone have the Legendary Planet AP and is interested in taking an established group on as DM?
