Dead Man Walking! A Way of the Wicked Campaign Phase III (Inactive)

Game Master bwatford

I'm quite fond of Iron Brushes for duels to the death, myself.

Really looking forward to start, and I really dig the last 3 submissions (I love ZonZon :3).

And Aylene, we'll see who's the hotter redhead sorceress!

Gameplay thread is open.

Let Phase Three begin.

For in this case, The keyboard is mightier than the sword?

We have all heard that "Stick and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me."

Actually, now that I think of it, one of the metal Apple keyboards could be quite effective. The plastic PC ones would probably break after the first hit.

And here I thought it was "...but whips and chains excite me". Certainly more fitting for some of the character concepts in this game.

Hey, I am a barrister. I can cause pain and suffering with but a few words. - - - Although, because of the pay structure, I get far more monetary renumeration when I use lots of words to accomplish the same goal.

Thanks! I'm checking in (will add backstory etc to the alias later once I get off work and can think straight). Will also roll some stats to get an idea of how to RP my character, subject to change at the DM's discretion.

Also the DM said one of you guys who voted for me to be in the game was really excited about me playing a Skulking Slayer. I had asked if it were OK if I submit as a ninja for my character's class as it's the only class that lets me do most of what I want without multiclassing. However, the fact that you were interested in my character's class hints that you were interested in RPing with me as a player so please don't hesitate to PM me if there are any hooks that you would like to go over.

Good luck all!

Howdy all! Khelreddin here to join the fun.

And so that I do not forget, dice rolls. Let me just make a brief sacrifice to the Dice Gods, and...

Focus: Dexterity
Foible: Wisdom

1d10 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16
1d10 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15
1d10 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16
1d10 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14

Edit: Yesss!!! For once I do not suck at rolling for ability scores!!!

If anyone's interested, Paizo added about 100+ avatar images. Most are from Mummy's Mask and Iron Gods but you might find something you like!

Don't even get me going on that. Choosing avatars was hard when I first started and there were only like 10 pages of them total. Now there are 1000s and it takes forever.

Nice first day in Phase Three, I am sure the other four will be joining everyone soon.

Sorry I was late for the party in the Gameplay place, guys! I was just running a giant-ass dungeon crawl with my bros in real life. So alas, I was late, but it for a good cause darn it!

Funny, I thought Stage 3 was not to start until Monday. I tried to post this afternoon, and the site said it was down for maintenance. Oh well, enjoying the rp and now time to jump into the pool...

It doesn't "officially" start until Monday. So mostly will just be cell chatter until then.

Well, the cell chatter is important too. ;)

And I'm having so much fun :D

Just wanted to throw out there that Paimon looks more human than he does orc, though his chin is unusually strong. If there were an option for 1/4 orc I would have taken it :p.

No worries, I am more than happy to start early, and am already having a blast. Do I need to tell anyone that I took the Condescending drawback? :P

Sorry all, Jalik will have to be silent for the rest of the weekend. Went on a trip Friday and will not make it back to town until Monday night.

I thought it wouldn't start until Monday. I was able to get in a word but no time for true gameplay/discussion. See you later.

You are rocking the low-Charisma thing! :)

You are rocking the low-Charisma thing! :)

Haha, thank you, I shall take that as a compliment.

Lord Zekk - Ariana Darklight the Dhampir Anti-Paladin. has bowed out of Phase Three as he had something come up. I will be offering his spot to Dark Netwerk - Amestri Atezadeh the Peri-Blooded Aasimir Warpriest of Eiseth

Welcome aboard Dark Netwerk!

Hey, what's that Sir Balin trying to do to our adorable Voldemort-in-training! Give her back!

Hey Paimon!

No one is undressing yet. I held the story at that exact point to give Hecatae a chance to respond to his actions thus far.

And do you think the honorable Sir Balin would force her to undress in the open?

Ah. Looked like it was going in that direction. Sorry for jumping the gun.

And yes, yes I do think he looks like someone who would do that.

Lol - was trying to figure out how Tkaara was going to react to the forced change if it was public.

Yeah, I was wondering if Balin was going to be a perv or not, cause that's a wee bit rapey.

And hey, I wouldn't be suprised if Balin did make her undress in public, guys in the inquisition have a lot of things repressed, lord know's what kinda crap they'd let out if given the chance.

:0

Wow - manages to capture the towering nobility and be menacingly creepy, all at once.

Trying to come up with an appropriate response - watch this space

So I wasn't the only one that thought Balin's acting like a creep!

And @Chilldude: What's the last part of Melphael's last sentence? The curiosity is killing me. D:

EDIT: @DarknessRising: I'd suggest something along the lines of "LAY YOUR HANDS SOMEWHERE ELSE YOU MANIAC"

And @Chilldude: What's the last part of Melphael's last sentence? The curiosity is killing me. D:

Woops! Sorry, that was an editing mistake, it has been fixed. :)

Very well done with Balin, if we didn't already hate him, well you painted a good picture for us there :)

Oh we are not done with him just yet... but I am glad you like it.

Sir Balin thought silently, “All human beings, as we meet them, are commingled out of good and evil: and Doctor Ottakar Wilken, alone, in the ranks of mankind, was pure evil.”

My work here is done. :D

It is time for the official kickoff for Phase Three. However you couldn't tell it by all the post in the gameplay thread. :)

The roleplay banter will continue until such time as I have received a group selection list for each applicant on his/her choice for the party. This should be done by PM only and not in public. Please take all the time you need to make sure you have selected the players that you feel are important to your character as well as to you the player before sending me a vote. Once I have received the list as per instructed in the gameplay thread from everyone and I tally the votes then the "Royal Court" part of Phase Three will begin in the gameplay thread and each of you will be sentenced.

Please allow time for the new comers to get involved as a few of them were tied up over the weekend and didn't get the head start like some of you. I believe the three that we are lacking starting as of yet is:

DM Barcas - Aylene Sokorra || The Schemer the Kitsune Sorcerer (rakshasha-blooded)
Dark Netwerk - Amestri Atezadeh the Peri-Blooded Aasimir Warpriest of Eiseth
Sigz - Victor Karash the Aasimar (Angel Blooded) Inquisitor (Torture Master)

Also for your reference, here is a list of all 13 Phase Three finalist.

Hello all, just trolling through the IC :) Look forward to getting involved.

By the way, welcome aboard Sigz!

Hey, Sigz. Welcome aboard. Not a droid this time, I see. ;-)

Party Time!!!!

Ok, not quite party time, but we are getting there.

Welcome to the show Sigz.

And I'm now here. I'll post once I get a chance to peruse the now 90+ posts ;P

I will get a post in soon. I have one mostly typed, though it is a flashback. I may save that one for later and jump right in as soon as I can, so as to not lose momentum.

Sorry for my longish posts. I keep returning and discovering several statements/questions that need to be responded to. And it is hard to keep some of them short.

Anyway, I have having a great time so far. Love the different characters.

I will be out for most of the day. (Yeah the work thing is a b++*~.) I will be back tonight to catch up on everything and move the story forward. Meanwhile enjoy your last meal.

I do most of my posting from work :)

First of all, WELCOME NEW PLAYERS! I can't wait to see what you have to offer!

@Tkaara Fiakben, I know you on the long posts. Everytime I come back from work, it's like: 13 NEW POSTS, and I'm like: ...yay. Good writing workout, though.

@DM Asmodeus, when would be a good date to decide our votes and turn them in by?

It does give me something to read during lunch time, something I absolutely cannot complain about.

Clarification, I was referring to the famous aria from Pagliacci. I didn't know that it used improper Italian, :p. Just as our GM lifts oaths from famous novels, I lift the names of songs from famous operas.

Nah, Pagliacci's Italian is perfect. It's my english translation on the spot of the first verses said by Etna that's terrible :P

Ah, thanks for clearing that up.

I must say, the more we play, the more difficult this decision is become. I almost wish there was a way to make a party of thirteen.

Lucky 13 -- or for the one executed for fun, I suppose it will be unlucky 13.
