Yep, definitely looking forward to it.
By the way, Shi, just a heads up: You have "Eidolon" mispelled on your character sheet and so on. (Please forgive me for nitpicking; I'll admit I'm a bit twitchy when it comes to spelling.)
I've moved two points out of Castor's Int score (losing the Climb skill in the process), and put them into Constitution instead.

Arisl'arial Tathmir |

Go ahead and kick it off!

Shi'Vatha |

Remind me to fix it when we level. Pain to fix and re-upload, can't edit the PDF in the google drive.
Ready to go.

Arawn Vasska |

I am ready to start, yes. The only last minute thing I would wonder is if we need 2 pack horses? I don't think Arisl'arial's pack horse is anywhere near its light load, at the moment, and it would allow me to pick up a few things. It would also depend on Arisl'arial allowing Arawn to load more stuff onto her horse. :P
Thing is, there's not a whole lot I NEED. It would just be stuff that MIGHT be useful later on. Probably mostly pick up alchemical items, maybe a scroll or two. I dunno. What do you guys think?
Aside from that, let's get this party started!

If there's stuff you think would be nice to have but don't have the money for, feel free to sell your pack horse back and rely on Bruidal. That kind of goes for everyone, so long as he doesn't go to past a medium load. I'll create a GoogleDoc for his load and give everyone edit powers. It'll be in my header, but it won't be up for a bit here.

Shi'Vatha |

We should change that into a general equipment/loot document, if you don't mind Aris? I'll work up what I mean as an example... This is a complex AP and keeping track of resources is vital.

Castor Antares |

Castor had little enough stuff that I think Capella can hold him and his gear. If we need to carry more at some point, Castor walks at 40ft so it wouldn't be much of a hindrance.
Is anyone else aiming for a PRC? Castor is heading for Spherewalker.

@Shi'Vatha: We could do that, if you wanted to build an example for me. I've never really run the loot document for a group, and I'm pretty swamped with different games and work and grad school applications, so I'd prefer someone else take the extra responsibility, but it could be helpful.
@Castor: I have no prestige classes in mind at the moment. Possibly Natural Alchemist (which probably has a different name off the D20PFSRD, but Archives of Nethys is being picky) on the Alchemist side, but probably not, really.

Arawn Vasska |

I really have no inclinations towards any PrC, no.
I'll work out what gear to swap out for, though I'm in the process of moving, so access to my computer might be limited until later on tonight. It shouldn't hold anything up, though...

See LOOT link in posting block.
If everyone fills it in, it should help the GM keep track of WBL (Which is a pain in this game).

Arisl'arial Tathmir |

I've encountered a slight problem with the loot tracker. How do I keep the weight my horses are carrying separated from the weight I'm carrying?

Shi'Vatha |

Added entries for Animals.
Put your lose gold in the golden square on each area.
List your items and values under you, but not weight, if they are on the horse.
Under the horse, list the item and weight.
That lets you keep track of items on the horse, items value for you, and weight on the horse.

Shi'Vatha |

I always assume we are unless the GM says otherwise.
ALways good to know, even if we aren't, if you're carrying 2000 lbs of junk. :) If you fall in the pond, we need to know if you float or sink. :)

Shi'Vatha |

Then it looks like we're just waiting on the GM. :)
Poke Poke! :)

I'm separated from my computer, but I switched around my traits, a bit. Dropped Extremely Fashionable for Prince, grabbed Desperate Focus and Oppressive Expectations to balance it. Going to pick up a couple potions (Sun Metal, Lead Blades, and Shield), some cologne, and keep the rest for myself.
Once I get back to my computer (it 3' away, but my 5 month old daughter is sleeping on me atm) I'll update my sheet and the loot list.

Arisl'arial Tathmir |

I'll go ahead and say I'm ready as well! I've been having some weirdness with my computer, but we'll see how things go. Worst case scenario, I have to use my old beater for a bit.

Arawn Vasska |

Hokay. I finalized my sheet and gear, and added everything to the spreadsheet, as well. Since Arisl is letting me use Bruidel for gear, I went ahead and ported over all of her stuff onto Bruidel's columns.
I also wanted to make sure that I wasn't going to overload him.
I am ready to go!

GM Lord of the Wilds |

Sorry guys, there was an accident at the hospital and a nurse and I have been under review by the board because of it. What it essentially equates to it one of the janitors did not mop up all of the excess water from where he was cleaning the operating room, which caused a nurse to fall on me as surgery was being performed. Thankfully, the patient survived, but will have a very nasty scar now. The board is supposed to give the final decision on what to do about the situation but, based on the director's words at the last meeting about this, it looks like the janitor is getting fired and we will not be held liable for the situation.
Sorry about the wait, I have just been pretty stressed and trying to not worry a lot about stuff, despite my job having possibly been on the line.
Expect a gameplay post, finally, tonight or tomorrow. Thanks in advance for understanding!

Castor Antares |

Oh jeez. That's a horrible situation for everyone involved. I'm glad to hear everything is okay as can be after what happened, and I hope things play out alright for you.
Good on you for powering on through, and feel free to take a little more time if you need it. I don't think any of us will hold it against you.
I might review Castor's gear a little. It has been brought to my attention that Castor's morningstar and shield really won't do much for him, so I'm going to get something else instead.

Arawn Vasska |

Oof. That sucks, man. Glad to know everyone came through alright in the end, though. Sucks for the dude losing his job, but at least it wasn't worse.
Like Castor said, feel free to take some time off, just keep us in the loop, please.

Yuck! Glad it turned out well.

Arisl'arial Tathmir |

I do hope it turns out alright for you, GM.

Arisl'arial Tathmir |

This may be an inappropriate question for the forums, but how do you pronounce Samhain, anyways? I've only ever seen it written.

Arawn Vasska |

Because Celtic is maddening, the "mh" is pronounced like a "v." So the pronunciation is "SAW-ven" or "SAH-vain."
EDIT: There is some debate on this, by the way. I've seen people swear that it's pronounced "shavnah," or that the later vowel should be pronounced "ih." Some people say it with a "w" sound in between the two syllables, but as I said before, the "mh" makes a "v" sound.
Languages evolve over time. Different pronunciations are par for the course. Me and my family? We pronounce it "SAW-ven." /shrug

Arawn Vasska |

....
Gaelic. Not Celtic.
This is why you get a full night's sleep, people! Else you make mistakes like this!

Shi'Vatha |

Hopefully the GM can get free time to post soon. Looking forward to it.

Arisl'arial Tathmir |

I'm also eager to begin. [music]The wa-a-a-aiting is the hardest part.[/music]

Arisl'arial Tathmir |

Man, Castor (I think?) and I had a longish conversation in the GoogleSheet chat while updating our inventories. This is nothing, though we are pushing toward our third page of discussion here.

Arawn Vasska |

I have a Chrome extension that has a built-in chat feature, if anyone's interested. Or we can set up a Skype group? I'd love to get more talkative with everyone.
-Posted with Wayfinder

Shi'Vatha |

I have no issues with doing IM (although I don't have skype, I do have Google Drive, which has a chat component), but until the game starts, not much we can do in a chat.

Arawn Vasska |

Here's the Chrome extension I was talking about.
We can talk, get to know each other, commiserate on the delay...

Arisl'arial Tathmir |

I wonder if I can get Chrome up and running again without turbo-crashing my computer. It was causing all sorts of problems a couple months back, so I uninstalled and went to Firefox.
EDIT: I literally just found it for Firefox, I think.
It doesn't seem to have the chat function, though...

Shi'Vatha |

Poking to poke the pokey poke so the pokeys know they were poked and don't think I've given up poking pokeys.

Arisl'arial Tathmir |

Well, here we are, edging toward 100 posts and a week and a half. Any word?

Shi'Vatha |

I may be slightly paranoid, but I'm beginning to suspect we're being trolled again.
