I would like to have everyone respond with the following information, before any other posts get started here. When it comes time to complete chronicles, or in the event I provoke an AoO or need to control the character of an absent player, these will conveniently all be at the top of the first page.
The clerk who is organizing the meeting for the VC has conveniently provided you an example. (And also a quick reply option :)

Yeah, if I made this character over again, I would have gone Darkive (maybe Ssages) for sure. Now it's just too expensive to jump ship.
In any case, I am your resident skill/knowledge expert. To that end, anyone want to help me with my Research Specialist boon? It paraphrases thusly: Once per scenario, a character can tell you of an exploit from an adventure earlier in their career that my character has not played on. Document the name of the scenario, the agent's name, and that player's PFS number. For every 3 times this happens, add a +1 bonus to a Knowledge check (cannot select the same skill twice). Fill all 30 lines and add a +1 inherent bonus to your Intelligence score. This would finish my 21st line (7th Knowledge +1).
I have been going 1/2 xp with this guy for a while now to get some use out of the bonuses. So, any takers?
Milton Smithson |
Assault on the Wound work for you? Milton loves bragging about his exploits in that one. For that matter, please note my first IC post in the gameplay where he was going to tell exactly that story.
Milton Smithson |
Apologies for those of you in multiple games with me as I crosspost this.
It's the summer, and so vacations happen. Bright and early tomorrow morning, the family and I are off for a wonderful vacation (hopefully). I will be back in country on the 27th.
Wish us luck, and whomever rolls the dice for me in my absence, roll high!

The scenario landed in my hands today & tomorrow is the day. Here are a couple things that will be helpful.
Post daily or nearly daily. I only get one day off a week so you may not see a post from me on that day, but chances are good I will still be lurking. Quite often folks will be waiting for someone else to post, who is also waiting for them to post. If you check in one day and have nothing to add, no problem. If you check in the next day and still have nothing to add, please post to say as much. Use it as an RP post: casting spark for a fire wizard, polishing a ring for the master jeweler, a catchphrase if you have one. If you will be out for a while, please let me know.
If three people consent to an action, I will continue with that action. If the rest of the party REALLY didn't want something to happen I can back up or retcon. There is no reason two doors on the left and right should bring an advanced party of adventurers to halt.
Saves DCs will be in a spoiler. I want you to make the roll. If you have a reroll you can decide to use it before knowing the outcome and not have to wait a day.
I want players to roll initiative, but will post the opponent's initiative so if you beat it you can also post an action. This will again prevent waiting.
We will use google docs for maps, and I will provide a link in my avatar.
Please post DCs with spells, SLA, or other effects that require them. Please link obscure (non-core) spells or abilities for my convenience.
Please include defensive numbers (AC, immunities, CMD, Perception) in your profile. I do not need every detail in the short description, just those that will directly effect the NPC (re-) actions. Please make sure your profile is up to date. Unlike a face to face game, character audits will not take time from the game so I make them more frequently in PbP.
Please track consumables & post anything out-of-character longer than a couple lines in the discussion thread.
Please, Please, PLEASE ask me any questions you have. I cannae see your face to tell if you are struggling with something or not. No matter how small the question might seem I am happy to answer. (do you know what d20 stands for? I have answered that question in two of my last three games:) So please ask.
Wow long post, sorry about that. Tomorrow will be worse. :)
Fendel, CSI: Absalom |
Hey @Milton, I am having a lot of fun with the in character verbal sparring.
To everyone: If I overstep or say anything that makes this not fun, please let me know. I realize we all do this for enjoyment, and I do not want to to ruin anyone's good time or experience. I can dial it down, or certainly post less.
Ragnar Northman |
Ok for me, but one thing: my company's firewall blocks google drive entirely. Is posting an action like 'attack the closest foe' ok for you? If not I have to wait for evening time when I get home to post my actions.

I have a similar problem. I can view them on my phone, but not move myself, so as long as someone can help with the moving, then I'm good.

No problem Ragnar (& Milton). At this level I assume you will flank when possible, avoid AoO, not stand in 30 ft. cones & the like. I started PbP before shared drives existed. :)
Milton Smithson |
It's funny, Fendel and Milton are both LN, but on opposite ends, with Liberty's Edge and Dark Archive being their factions.
It seems every game Milton plays, he invariably gets into a tiff with at least of the Pathfinders that runs through the whole scenario.
Fendel, CSI: Absalom |
Fendel sees the LN from an intellectual perspective, the need for a structured society. Though he is against slavery, he believes you have to change the rules, not just free whoever is in bondage. I have been waiting for a LN situation that we can agree upon so we can crush all resistance with our combined verbal acumen.
That said, I feel I am monopolizing screen time, so I may dial it back a bit to give everyone else some time. I don't want to bore everybody.

Hey all, I can't reach internet from my phone without it opening to a page saying 'click to win an I-phone'. Since I won't click OK (its a trap!) I am unable to lurk. It is also the time of year where I spend ALL day at my day job..
I will be back to posting normally next Tuesday, but it will be sporadic until then. Thank you for your patience.

So are all of the orcs north of us still up and about?
two under the fireball outline (1 red, 1 other) are tilted & dead. Yellow is badly injured.

ur GM is suck.
I am having trouble getting to all the tables. I apologize & am working to remedy your boredom.
Milton Smithson |
Since you list both as a Player and a Character in the campaign, it is odd that it's not on your list.
I note that it shows under Ka Kaw, but not under your main account's list of campaigns. Weird!
Venture Teller Play b'Post |
I don't know why either, but I removed you from the campaign.

Then I added you back in so hopefully it will reset.

Hey Y'all.
I have been asked to help with some ballot counting stuff & will not make a post until tomorrow. Sorry about the last minute notice, but I am quite excited to have been asked. :)

This goes to all my games (GMing or playing):
Thank you very much for your patience! Several weeks ago my partner decided to continue his life without me. For me it was a surprise, after 16 years of relationship. While I was busy looking for a new place to live the workload at work got more and more (the bank is changing the treasury apps completely, moving to a new vendor) and my mother opens her own shop on Monday and wanted me to help with ordering stuff, making a website, creating advertising, business cards, preparing the shop etc.
As you can imagin I'm tired, done and completely frustrated. I've not been in the mood to open the Paizo page and reading messages of upset GMs/players "shouting" at me or demanding immediate upates so I did not open this page for a long time now.
I'm really sorry that I put you into this situation, but to make sure: it does not have anything to do with you or your gaming style. It was just that a lot of things hit me at the same time. I'm currently working through the games to update everything.
Fendel, CSI: Absalom |
No worries. Real life has a way of ambushing people. You do what you have to. Pathfinder is supposed to be a fun distraction, not one of the things adding stress to your life. Take care of things, the community will be here for you.
Fendel, CSI: Absalom |
Not sure if we are close to the end, it feels like it though. I just want you to know that when you fill out the chronicle sheet that I am on the slow track with this character.
Half money, half xp, full day job cash...again.Lol. What a life!!!

boon roll! (ordered using the first post in this thread).
N: 1d20 ⇒ 20 Nice! Nivik I will need your email for the boon. PM if you prefer or email to my gmail account scottajankw@ Somewhere on the gameday thread there is a breakdown of the options, I will have to look for it tomorrow though (& it may be random in any case.)
M: 1d20 ⇒ 12
R: 1d20 ⇒ 6
F: 1d20 ⇒ 6
k: 1d20 ⇒ 11
GM: 1d20 ⇒ 9

I just had someone else give me a boon in another game since I hadn't received one yet... of course now this happens. Anyone here been shut out? I'll let you have this one in the "pay it forward" vein of karma-stuff.
Fendel, CSI: Absalom |
I have not gotten anything, but that's how it goes. Keep the boon and enjoy it. Think of us whenever you play the character it's attached to, lol.
