DaWay's Ruby Phoenix Tournament (Inactive)

Game Master DaWay

This is the map I'm currently GMing (if you move any icons, please put them back afterwards :)

Most GM's seem to use tokens from people's user icons, but I generally just use text boxes.

DaWay: I had a conversation with Nalita about alchemists (this is my first one, and Nalita was curious about making a first alchemist as well, and had a question about how I was hitting everybody with the group buffs like haste). It turns out I was wrong about how extracts work, specifically, this sentence:
An extract is “cast” by drinking it, as if imbibing a potion—the effects of an extract exactly duplicate the spell upon which its formula is based, save that the spell always affects only the drinking alchemist.

So, my group buffs only affect myself.

I do have the infusion discovery, so I can still make infusions for others to use, I just can't do group affects.

No worries Nemeia. To be fair, haste may not have been the best example. I think all four (three? feel better Kerumi) of us have access to at least a handful of rounds of haste/haste effects.

Also thanks for the map example you put up. Google docs is so cool.

I really wasn't trying to point anything out. I just made an alchemist for another game and was wanting to emulate the haste thing. Thought I was missing a discovery or something for it :(

I know you weren't trying to make trouble. :) But if I was using the ability wrong, I need to fix it. I think I just assumed it worked that way because the communal spells were available in herolab for alchemists - why would communal versions be available if they weren't actually any more useful than the personal versions?

Sorry for the delay. I had to do the family thing over the zombie bunny Jesus holiday. I will get something up tonight.

I will be leaving Wednesday afternoon for a trip, and likely unable to check back in until Monday. Please feel free to GMPC me if it's helpful.

I will just hold off any combat until then.

I didn't think about it before, but during the next 48-72 hours I'm going to have diminished posting capacity. If you want to just do the fight Nemeia, go ahead. YOu can have Nalita cast any spell you think might help she knows. Or I should be available for more readily posting sometime Monday if you wish to wait. Fine with either option.

I am actually going to be pretty busy myself as well! I've got wedding planning stuff going on tommorrow, and then live council of thieves all day sunday. The current plan is fine with me.

I realized today we might be waiting on me. I apologize for not mentioning I'm back, my fault. I am back though. I'll have a post up in gameplay shortly.

Sorry my posts have fallen behind in the process of moving right now. Will try and get something up later but my post will slow for about 2 to 3 weeks.

No worries. Have fun!

Just got into a new place. I should have Internet by this weekend.

Good to hear! I was thinking about writing a congratulations post on here for you. How close are you to fatherhood?

Congratz on the new place! I'm sure we'll be ready for when you return and get settled in.

Fatherhood is about 3 weeks away

So about any second of any day, now? Well I salute you sir. You're in for a treat.

Sorry I have been absent from the boards but as you have probably guessed I have been extraordinarily busy with the new place and preparing for the baby. Unfortunately I do not think I will be able to continue running games for sometime. I would like to thank everyone and hopefully in the next couple months I might be able to run something. I appreciate your time and creativity. 

No worries, DaWay. Thanks for hosting the game for as long as you did, I certainly had fun with it. Good luck to you and your blooming family! I wish you the best!

Thanks for the heads up, and as Treiden said, no worries. Real Life comes first. Have fun with the family!

May your dice in life crit in your favor.
