Amelia's not a fan of the death option, and marooning him on an island would probably end up with the same result. I'm also not sure how effective the jail would be at Harker's Ferry. Amy's top choice would probably be a memory wipe, or maybe something with dominate person. We should probably just cross that bridge when we come to it.
I think it best we set plan A and plan B up before execution.
I don't think Mem wipes are the best since you'd need to erase years of memory.
And on a deserted Island with food and water, it'll give him time to reflect on life a lot, and if lucky a ship might come by that picks him up.
We could also pick him up after a year and see if he is sorry for the crap he has pulled.
Heck some aboriginal groups of Canada (before Europeans came) kicked criminals out for a year before they were allowed back in.
Plan A
Send to Jail
Plan B
Island
Will post later tonight about the plan with arik. About to board a plane and can not post more.
Bestow curse can hand out total amnesia if necessary, which would have the advantage of giving him a fresh start to live a different life. But I'll be fine with whatever the group decides
To do a great quote
"Those Who Do Not Learn History Are Doomed To Repeat It."
with his memories wiped he may well repeat the same mistakes.
Clara is still in the inn, eating, so you'll have to sort out what you want to do in the stables without her input. As a player, I'd be in favor of just ignoring Arik, we can get back to him later. We have a mountain to worry about. As a character, Clara isn't going to go out of her way to seek vengeance, since that's not her goddess's gimmick.
What are the saves for?
Should all this end in fireballs? I druther not blow people up if I got a choice...
These bandits never learn. Mihail would be sick and tired of all of these collaboration between groups after this battle. He will let the party kill or fry them if they wish. Not even bother negotiating.
You know Clara and Amelia would kick my @ss if I opened up everything with fireballs...
But honestly if I were to argue it, I'd go under S5(2)(a) of Criminal Damage Act 1971 - lawful excuse in relation to criminal damage - belief that the property was in immediate need of protection - thus the housebreaking.
Since we were about to scry, then teleport onto Arik, everyone would get resist energy 20(fire), and my delay poison would be up.
I just want to say that I...don't feel so good about posting. I want to move things on, but it's like whatever I do/say, people find it wrong, so I feel quite discouraged.
I.e I see a door. I check for traps, open it. I mean sure, there are other ways to handle it. If you're that smart, then do it.
I can post less, and watch how the group handles things.
I mean if everyone just sits around doing nothing, or just discussing things and inching around, then plot won't move and we'll get stuck.
If I threw fireballs at them, right on the onset, Clara/Amelia, Mihail wouldn't approve. If I tell them to stand down(so they can walk out of it alive), J'victus doesn't approve. What am I supposed to do?
It's like whatever I do, is wrong. Its very discouraging.
I've got bad news. I'm in the hospital again. So there will be a delay again.
Take care of yourself, GM.

Ouch, I pray you get better.
@ GM
get better soon
@ Fuego
You are not doing anything wrong.
First you are playing your character as you want and that is the way it should be. If your actions are not to the liking of the rest of the party they will let you know and then we can move on. If you do not want RP and only respond to the individual encounter...then do so. But if you want to involve the RP in the game then you have to take the good with the bad...lol
Now me I think personally you are playing more of a CN character then a TN one. You have jumped from one spectrum to the other in a single encounter. So you are really pushing the chaotic end...Now this is my own opinion. I do not have anything at all against you or your character.
Throwing fireballs at them from the onset would not be approved by the CG Bard, LG Oracle, CG Witch and including the two paladins in the party.
My character is a thief and it is not wise to do the actions that you asked him to do. He did not stop you from doing them, he just did not agree with it.
I agree, I think Fuego's been acting fine. Note that Amelia, being chaotic good, isn't going to raise a fuss over most combat casualties - these people are trying to capture and kill us, and sometimes things get messy. She's just not really a fan of the whole "righteous execution" mindset.
It might be best for both information-gathering efficiency and moral consensus if Amy just opened with a mass charm person on the mob. Would anyone object to that course of action? I don't want to feel like I'm cutting off opportunities for combat if that's what the party wants.
Alignment makes no difference to an oracle. N, CN, I don’t really give a damn. The problem with charm person is that it lasts an hour/level, and after it wears out, we’ll get MORE people onto us, irritated that we were tampering with their minds. (Honestly, I’d get irritated if charm person was done onto me too)
I don’t mind not picking fights, but it’s like people are trying to pick fights with us even when we tell them to shove off.
Basically I broke into the premises with the intention to rescue Lothar. I don’t personally feel it’s a CN action, since there are defences specifically in the law to apply to this kind of thing. But I could argue with you on that, and it’d move nowhere.
I just want to make sure the plot moves.
Honestly I thought the idea of an RPG was so you could RP – but if my RP seems to be irritating the group(and it is irritating me too), I’ll just keep my mouth shut, and see how the group handles things.
Do you think that maybe because you don't give a damn is why you are not having fun? CN can be fun but jumping from N to NG to LG to CN to CE is bit much when it comes to RPing. Then again this is not my character but yours so feel free to play how you want. I will react to your actions as I feel my character will act. The characters are to be friends and I think that is why no one has said more than what they have so that we can keep the game moving along
It is nice that you want to move the plot along but there are others here as well. You have been on these boards for some time now and understand that some people need time to post. It causes a lot of unnecessary retcon when you ask someone to do something and then a hour and thirty nine minutes later you post that you are going to go ahead and do the action you just asked other players to do. I want fast posting as well but I also want to be part of a group and not a one man band running around doing whatever I want because I do not give a damn.
As I have said I personally do not have a problem with your character, I just do not agree with your characters actions. I am not saying that your actions are wrong or right, just that my character does not agree with them. That is all.
Yeah, I guess patience isn't a strong point of mine.
*deep breaths...*
I will try to be more patient.
Get well soon. Your health is important for the game to go on.
I'm still here, is anyone else still here?
I am active. If this is not continuing due to inactivity, we will need to sought out a new GM or players. It's been like 2 weeks or so.
Still here!
Ok well then, I will start a thread soon for a new GM and once we get that we will get some new players as well.
So far Half of us players are still here.
Want me to start the GM recruitment thread or is it already made?
Ok well then, I will start a thread soon for a new GM and once we get that we will get some new players as well.
I am in the process of making it right now. Yes I will provide a link
I am wanting to get a few new players that will be active and want to be part of a group as a whole and not bog down the game with alignment issues that cause problems in the group. Would love to see this to the end.
