Just get it to me when you can. I want to get started, but I don't want to rush you guys either. That's the reason I've just left it as a nebulous sometime in the next week.
Looking forward to this. I hope all of you are as well.
Yeah, I'm already excited. This is a pretty cool setting.
Actually I think a deadline would be helpful. Gives people something to aim for.
@Me'mori: I can understand wanting to find a class that perfectly fits the background but I just wanted to warn you that Haunted may gimp your character more than want. I mean you are nauseated when it Usurps power. You can't do anything but take a move action. Mystic is really powerful so you'd actually be less effective when it did that.
Current consideration is actually Spiritualist(Haunted)/Harbinger.
I'm not too worried about how the character plays, as I'm looking at the classes as more story than function, it's just finding that idea that works (in a group setting). Seeing as how gestalt and the stats have raised us further above the idea of a "standard" adventurer, I'm not sure that "Dwarven Rogue Ianthé", fits anymore.
How sold were you all on that idea?
I was honestly looking forward to seeing her in action. If you feel that a different character would be better, then go for it.
It's more the setting change than anything, really. Sorting out how to fit into the new world, and take into account the added classes of the others makes the "You all need someone who's gotten their hands dirty" idea a bit less relevant... Or it just ups the scale, in which case I'll consider that angle.
Not to worry. I would like to get started by this weekend, so does anyone think they'll have trouble finishing by 6-7PM CDT Friday?
Also, Me'mori or anyone else needing help, don't forget that you can ask me questions if you're stuck.
Okay I just have the flavor stuff and magical items.
Which we can only have Scrolls, Potions, and Wands right?
I'll have to withdraw. While I've got a couple of good ideas, I can't get into the frame of mind for gestalt. Good luck y'all, and thanks DM for picking this up.
Yep. Wands have a number of charges per day. I'm thinking 8 or 10 would be enough.
Well poop. Ianthe sounded cool. Is everyone else ready?
Bummer. I missed that. Sorry to see you go Me'mori.
I think everyone should be ready. I'll have to check when I get home.
Okay, I completely forgot to mention, but one of the other players from the other game was interested. I sent them a link, so we may have another player joining.
I think we're just missing Egryzon's updated stats and Drausk's fluff otherwise.
Wands are normally 50 charges then done, yes. I'm changing it to 10 charges per day, so you can only use it ten times a day, but you can use it every day until the heat death of the universe. If that's too few, I can up it to something else, 15 or even 20 if everyone thinks that's fair.
No thats cool I thought it was for a brand new it was 20 charges and done. I am okay with the 10/day
Alright, heard back and he said he'd try to have a character up soon. So we're back up to five, assuming Pennate hasn't suffered a mischief.
Hello all,
Thank you for having me I am still working on the character and I am almost done.
Glad to have you!
So, two things.
1) I plan on starting this next Monday, so that should give you guys time to wrap things up and tie stories together if you want. If you're not ready by then, I'll work you in as soon as you are.
2) Once things have settled into a steady rhythm with this game and the Nordholm reboot, I want to try my hand at a Sci-FI themed GURPS game. I'm taking suggestions over here. so if that sounds like something you're interested in, then pop on in and put your two cents in. If you've never played GURPS, then don't worry. I plan on helping people as much as possible, so not know the system shouldn't be a barrier to entry.
But, like I said, it's not going to happen until things with these two games I'm trying to get off the ground have settled.
Dear lord a wizard/cleric? Spells for days. Can't wait for Monday.
What gods are you using in the sundered lands ?
The normal pathfinder gods, plus Baliserius and any others that you might wish to throw into the mix.
Zaknador, has your background been updated? It looks like it was written for the Forgotten Realms.
Also, planning on starting tomorrow evening. I'll be bringing you all together as part of the beginning, so if you want to start travelling with one of the others, now's the time to let me know. Also, can I get a "here" from everybody. I think Pennate's busy, so we may have to work him in later, but I would like to know that everyone else is still here.
I had an updated background and character stuff ready to go and when I went to save to the site it went down. So I back to doing it all over again. Should have it up for tonight.
Here. And yeah, paizo was down for me for the last two days I think.
Same here.
You would think I would have learned the first time the website crashed.So now I copied my character to a word document and I am currently updating it that way. When the site is back up and running for longer than 30 minutes, I will copy and paste.
Any clue as to why the site was having so many problems?
It normally coincides with updates and maintenance from what I've been able to tell. Makes things very annoying at times, but hey, they aren't charging for using the forums, so just comes with the territory.
That said, I'm going to try kicking us off tonight, so hope everyone's ready.
I think the site is good now.
Good, 'cause we're live!
Egryzon and Zaknador still need to let me know if/when they're ready to go. As soon as they are, I'll add them in.
You know that bit about us being live.
Turns out that post got ate.
...
Welp, time to see if I can rewrite it.
I am ready, just doing some fine tuning on the background.
This is stupid of me considering I'm trying to write the post that kicks this off, but I'm going to ask anyway. The more I think about the more I want to change which god the temple that held grail was dedicated to serving. Does anyone have any objections to me switching it from Balserius to a goddess I came up with?
The Silver Lady, the Knight Radiant, the White Dawn, the goddess Albia has many titles, and is widely known through the Sundered Lands. She is the goddess of valor, protection, bravery, and honor. Her followers include regal knights and humble guards. Many pay homage to Albia, praying for protection and strength. Her symbol is a sword or spear in front of a round shield and her followers often wear white, silver, and blue.
Alignment: LG
Domains: Good, Healing, Law, Nobility, Protection, Strength
Subdomains: Archon, Restoration, Judgement, Loyalty, Leadership, Defense, Fortifications, Purity, Resolve
I think Marla's the only one directly affected, but from what I understand of her character, this wouldn't affect her much beyond the name of her deity. I think we've lost Pennate, but if he returns, I have something in mind to keep Egryzon's story from changing too much.
So, thoughts?
I always thought Belsarius was female anyway.
So did we loose all of our unused starting gold or did we keep the remaining total.
I'm going to have to back out of this.
@Drausk: Ah, sorry, that was mainly for flavor. You still have any gold you had left over.
@Eleanor: Aw man. I'm sorry to hear that. :(
Good luck and I hope you have fun with whatever you do. :)
Yep. It's no problem at all!
So... I know we just got started, but what does everyone think so far?
I am currently loving it
I couldn't even begin to comment yet. We haven't even gotten the party together or been in a fight.
Point, I guess what I'm really after is are you having fun?
Yes.
I am enjoying it and I think things will go smoother once we are together and on the same page.
Yep, but I thought this would be a more fun way to bring you all together. :D
I am enjoying the campaign so far.
