Oi, discussion thread here.
Hopefully we get some more people, especially someone with a little healing^^
Looking forward to this!
Awesome. I feel like I can deliver.
Bump?
ready to go. :)
Holy crap. I just realized that I spent the money from the 4th level on the Wealth by Level instead of 5th level. My god. So much money I didn't spend.
Actually...I'm not even sure I didn't spend the 3rd level! wtf. How did I miss that.
Are Riding Crodlu quadrapeds?
They are described as similar to giant armored ostriches. :)
So no, okay, thanks!
LOL! I just peeked at your sheet for potential ideas for things to buy...how are you CARRYING all of that?? =O
Also you noted only 1750 cp starting wealth but for 5th level per the book it would be 3,450 cp, right?
Right.
From the Recruitment thread:
"I like Hayato Ken's idea to use the automatic bonus progression, which would cut the wealth available to spend by half."
And I am packing most of it on the crodlu. I figured with saddlebags it could carry more than I can carry myself... although of course, if the DM thinks it is unreasonable, I can revise.
D'oh! Forgot about that! Man, I am tired today. I should have done this tomorrow lol.
Saddlebags can unfortunately only carry 20 lbs. per side, which I was just reading about. =(
Yikes. Okay. I took all the big stuff off. Guess I'll sleep out under the stars with no tent. :) That seems more caravan-guardish anyway, but you know, my character is used to a life of relative luxury, so she *wanted* to bring it all. :)
including the kitchen sink?
Don't know a lot about the setting, so I need to ask:
What is a "tree of life?"
Well, she didn't actually have a sink on her equipment list (although a magical sink would be awfully nice on Athas), but she did have a medium tent, a folding chair, a cot, etc. I obviously went overboard. I'll work on my shopping addiction... promise.
Vastryn's equipment has been re-corrected after I messed up thinking I had a lot of ceramic to spend <eyeroll at self>
Don't know a lot about the setting, so I need to ask:
What is a "tree of life?"
In Dark Sun it's a magical living item that draws on all four elemental planes in order to stay healthy. According to the Dark Sun original campaign setting clerics and druids can draw on it for four specific spells.
On the subject of equipment:
GM: I realized that I haven't bought equipment other than armor and weapons.
I had planned to get a couple wands but wanted to ask how you felt about partially charged wands. I figured I would have used either wand a little bit already.
Also, I took the Craft Wondrous Item feat. Would I be able to get any crafting discount on any gear I started with?

Just remember, that if you get Craft Potion, your crafting them from fruits. Other than that, I don't think a crafting discount is unreasonable.
Okay, what are we waiting on? The 4th of July came and past.
I don't think we're waiting on anything, are we? I sort of thought it was your turn to tell us what happens next. We all moved where the Caravan Master told us to ride, and we're waiting to see if some bad guys come by, or my familiar comes back with news of someone near the camp, or to get to the first camping spot...?
Were you waiting for us to introduce ourselves to each other, or something like that? We totally can do some role playing like that. Just didn't know it was still our turn, I guess. :)
I'll certainly post something. :)
Also, sorry for changing my avatar picture this late, but it was really bothering me. Not sure why.
She looked so stuck-up. And not saying the character isn't, at least some, but ... yeah, I just couldn't stand looking at her constant smugness. :)
... I know, I'm strange.
I was making a new character for a different game today and I ran across these caravan feats: http://www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/caravan-feats
Since we're in a caravan, should we take a group feat?

These feats aren't for people travelling in caravans; they are for the caravans themselves. Jade Regent had a system where the Caravan itself had scores and levels and would take feats.
Oh, I see. Cool. Thanks for the enlightenment. :)
My apologies, but I am going to have to bow out.

Okay.
Alright, I opened a thread advertising for two new players for Dark Sun. Lets hope we get some more players, eh? :D
An oracle or cleric would be good, and also maybe a ranger or rogue or some fighting/skill monkey type.
FYI guys I probably can't post on Saturday, and not on Sunday until late.
Sounds alright. You have a thing?
I think we're stuck till we get another player anyway.
Which may be Seth86's character, although it doesn't have a name yet.
Wow, three more players!
Are we just assuming they were part of the caravan the whole time?
Yeah, I think we have to... not sure where else they would come from.
Yeah we were guards that suddenly became useful.
Hello Numalar.

Hello Numalar.
Shhh! That's my secret identity!
Indeed. I am old and, in my defense, rather vain. I've probably been sleeping through the night.
Yeah, Veleron is a strange lot. Desert Druid and all he approaches things from a peculiar fashion. So he's just been observing to see what there is to see from this group before necessarily offering direct aid (he would have course, retroactively, offered aid should things have gotten dire...).
^_^
BTW... I don't know that much about the Dark Sun world. What is a "Pyreen?"
Link to Info on Pyreen
Ah, thanks!
From the name I thought they would have something to do with the element of fire. Totally wrong there.
So I take it they are kind of legendary?
Yep. They are kind of legendary. In fact one of them is responsible for inventing magic.

Neat, didn't know any of this.

No kidding!
Is that why they are active restorers? They feel a responsibility for creating the instrument that destroyed the world?
I suppose it's mostly academic.
But I'm guessing from the description that Josie's ancestry would not be obvious, and she looks human.
FYI guys I know my posts have slowed down a bit lately.
Here's what's going on.
Right now we have a staffing shortage at my workplace, and I have been pulling extra shifts. This has left me pretty tired and worn out. I also expect to be training some new hires soon (though I'm not sure when), and since I do most of my posts from work it is unlikely I will be able to post much on those days, but we don't have a schedule for that person yet, so I don't yet know which days I am doing that, and I may not end up knowing until I arrive for my shift. So since I may not have any warning I'm letting you guys know now. The training will probably be spread over three days.
After that I am leaving for a much needed Vacation on September 30th. I expect to have internet access, so I should be able to post in that period, though it may be a bit irregular.
Sorry for any problems this might cause, and if I don't respond in a reasonable time bot me as needed. Things should be back to normal for me in mid-October.
I fixed my hit ponts
Added new lvl 2 spell - invisibility
New team work feat - Outflank
+1 saves, and bab
+2 Wis
+6 skill points
Zera: it sounds like the necklace is like a wand of magic missiles. Did you want it?
