I can imagine, I can also imagine what family dinners for the next three years would be like if the same thing happened to me. I mean my mom and sister were joking that the ER had the wrong MRI when it showed that I had a brain after all when I totaled my car. :P
And I totally sympathize with you about forgetting your head. I can be impulsive sometimes and well...
Well, if Paulus realized he was flirting, he might be better at it. As it is, I'm gonna have fun with him being super wise in everything but this, and make him super awkward at it. Maybe he'll ask Zev for help. Try to get Cal to show him how to play. Lift weights. Go ahead and help. It will likely make things worse (better). :)

Sounds like Paulus needs a training montage XD
You've just reminded me that in Salsa's RotRL game, my bard owes the party wizard a violin lesson... my buddy Matt had a field day coming up with dirty puns when I told him.
Muahahahaha. Now I need to figure out whether Nic's devious enough to sabotage Paulus' attempts. (Nah, I don't think she is.)
Two things I take away from that. One, is that Rocky needs to invest in some mountaineering safety equipment. A harness. A hammer and some pitons. Plenty of rope. Two, I love how they equate the tree Rocky chops down to some shlub Dolph Lundgren KTFO.
Paulus' healing hands will make you feel good! He'll help all the pretty ladies with their aches and pains!

Dr. Feelgood, at your service.
This line pretty much sums up Nic right now. That's why she's so mad at Paulus - he saw it coming.
Also, I lol'd at Dr. Feelgood.
I didn't catch the link the first time. Excellent comparison!
On a side note, doesn't half-Orc courting involve clubbing the female over the head and dragging her back to your den?
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
Actually it's the half orc females that do the courtship clubbing ;)
Less "playing hard to get" and more "playing hard to get... up, with all your teeth intact..." lol
Is Annabelle getting a response from her guard colleagues?
Yes, sorry, I'll looks at it at lunch.
I have a game in need of some new players. It's meant to be silly and I understand not everyone's like that style game. If you're interested, post your concept in this thread. The current party has:
A Faen Sorceress
A Half-orc Barbarian
A Kitsune Skald
and
A Drow Oracle (GMPC, I can easily replace her. ;D)
Before you read any further, please note that this is going to be silly. This isn't a self-deprecation, but the point of the entire adventure. If you are looking for a place to play that dark brooding assassin your GM forbade, seriously, then I'm afraid that this isn't for you. If you're looking to play him up to comedic levels of GrimDark, Blood-bathed, over-the-top shenanigans, however, this still might not be your campaign, but apply anyway, I'll be the judge. :D
Now, this is supposed to be a dungeon crawly type game with lots of Role-playing and other shenanigans. That means classes that do well in confined spaces are your best bet, although it could be fun to try and be the knight on a white horse, just don't expect to be able to ride much.
Character creation:
Level 1
Roll 4d6 drop lowest six times for stats.
-Reroll if you have less than a 20 point buy
-Reroll if more than one stat is below 8.
Don't worry about starting equipment.
Three traits and one drawback.
No Evil, period.
Any class is allowed (save no Anti-Paladin)
Any race that uses class levels for hit-dice is allowed.
Submission:
Full stats, save equipment
Your character's background
Your character's personality
Your character's appearance
A few things that sets them on edge.
A few things that makes them go all gooey.
A quirk or two that they have.
I am allowing races from Heroes of the Jade Oath.
I'll be trawling my other games for players as well, so please, only post in one thread if you are in more than one of my games.
By the way, I'll post later this evening or tomorrow... been a crazy couple of days!
Ooo, sorry for the delay! I got a new computer the other day, and I've spent the last few nights messing around with it. I'll post later this evening.
Limited use in combat, but darn if he isn't a decent talker!
Speaking of talking, did anyone dress up for Halloween?
I was a ninja turtle.
I live in Australia. I wore my Jayne hat to greet the two trick-or-treaters we had. That was about it.
My kids insist that I don't dress up with them. ;p However, I took a zombie doctor, Ever After High character, Vampire Bride, and another terrible zombie thing with a bleeding chestplate out for trick or treating.
Alas I live in the boonies o' Bonnie Scotland so rarely get visitors any day of the year...
Did however have an old offshore boiler suit and my Wyatt Family sheep mask primed and handy should anyone have come a knockin'...
They didn't lol.
Just wanted to give you guys the heads up that I'll be out of town and unable to post until Sunday evening.
My preference would be to hear what Croft has to say, then check in with Brask and see if our windfall (and gear) is there yet. I won't argue with anyone wanting to shop beforehand, though.
Edit: Also, I removed the gold bars from the loot sheet. Please add 3 bars to your profile worth a total of 300 gp.
I'm with Paulus on this. Not that Nic would ever admit to agreeing with him...
Will be very interesting to see where the conversation with Croft takes us. Fingers crossed some of the items on the Chopping List have been got for us, but might be a wee while longer sourcing what we need?
On a separate note gang I've been running on/off a vanity campaign of mine - a Pathfinder re-imagination of Ye Olde TSR Modules UK2 & 3 (The Sentinel & The Gauntlet). This Saga is set in Iobaria and I've currently two of my original group still with me. Three more have had to step away from the Saga due to RL and couple more didn't come back after my own (hard) decision to put the game on ice.
However I've decided to thaw it out once more (its something I keep coming back to!) - anyway you lot have been a blast to game alongside, and whilst I realise that dance cards may be full, I'm putting out an open call to everyone here who might be interested in making up the numbers...
Here's the link to the campaign page: Black Dow's Iobarian Saga
We currently have an Ulfen Barbarian (Invulnerable Rager) & a Iobarian Ranger (Warden); so we're lacking divine and arcane characters of all shapes and flavours.
If any of you are interested (DM-S included :) please have a read of what's went before and drop into the OOC thread to bandy about your concepts or ideas.
Cheers (and apologies to DM-S for the thread-jack)
No need to apologize. I'm taking a look right now.
I love paladins! They're so straight forward. :)

Sometimes it's fun to play a character that potentially sees the world as so black and white... makes decision making really easy lol
Sorry if I jumped the gun by the way, I just figured negotiating with devils wouldn't sit well with Elise.
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
Hey, I don't care. Combat is fun too. Cal is just used to negotiation over violence. Shelyn also has a talk first policy he is used to following. It will be good for a conversation after, I think.
Not at all, I even have the line that's going to kick all of this off ready. :D
I need to put this game on hold for a couple of weeks while I get things sorted out in my life. I know this is somewhat sudden but I have to get over some problems that I have been having that are affecting my work and personal life. I love GMing this game, and I promise to come back to it once I've worked through this.
For now, though I need time to think.
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
Let us know if you need to vent or talk. Thanks for being straightforward with us here.
Yep - as all have said (including me in your other game thread) - chill, reflect and sort stuff out. We'll wait hombre.
No problems man, take as much as you need.
Thanks for letting us know, Adam. It's understandable that every now and then, personal issues interfere with gaming (I know all too well). If you ever need to talk, I'm sure any of us would be willing to listen, and when you're ready for us, we'll be waiting. For now, take a step back, take care of yourself, and come back when you're good and ready.
To everyone else - I'll always be hanging around if anyone wants to just shoot the shit. You all seem like pretty nifty people.
It happens, no worries; rest assured, Elise will be waiting to stomp out some Imps upon your return. Take care!
I'm actually really starting to dig this character; she started out almost kinda bland from an RP point of view, but has been steadily morphing into a more brazen in your face down with evil kinda character, which is more a lot more fun to play... and it all really stemmed from the sword prophecy of Zellara's.
I know what you mean, Elise. Nic began as an excuse to try a class that excited me, but she's become really fun for me. She has the swagger and confidence of my bard (who a few of the people here know well), mixed with the brazen, impulsive nature of my gunslinger (who Rhas is slowly becoming acquainted with), so it's a horrible, beautiful combination. Plus, and I didn't intend for this, but the character seems to want to be a flirt, which can be fun. I don't play many 'sexy' characters.
It's funny how characters can grow. When you throw them in a good, RP-heavy party, it's good times all around :D
I like Rhas. Like I said, he's a good mix of insightful and doddering. :D
*Thunderclap*
I LIIIIIIIVE!
Okay, melodramatics aside, I have some good news. I'll be trying to get this rolling again over the weekend.
Posting is going to be slow since a major (as in over 5000 individual items that I have to make sure get ported correctly) project is coming up.
However, I think I have things straightened up enough for me to pick this, and two of my other games back up.
My goal is to have all three up by Monday and get at least a post in one of them a night. This is going to be slow, but it should allow me to keep all of the games moving at something approaching reasonable.
Again, I apologize for the interruption. It is entirely my fault, and I am working on never having something like that happen again.
Great to hear, and welcome back!
*looks around for someone to hug*
*hugs self instead*
Glad to have you back, Salsa! Looking forward to getting this underway again =)
DM Salsa,
Glad to see things are clearing up for you.
Posting this, as a heads up.
I have a business trip coming up next week and have been trying to prepare. I may have time for posting next week depending on how good the wifi is at the hotel (since I will have nothing but time at the hotel).
(This goes for the Jade Regent game too, since you are also the GM there, I don't feel I need to post it twice.)
Lets do this!
Glad to have you back Salsa :)
I hope that was more fun than annoying. I didn't feel like running a combat with me controlling 20 individual combatants and I don't think things would have gone as smoothly.
Still, I think I could have handled that better.
