A death in the family necessitates my driving all night to begin arrangements, my posting may be spotty over the next few days.
DM, please bot me as appropriate :)
My best of wishes Cil. Take the time that you need.
Jake good to know.
Now who is going to help Saronis with these gentlemen?
Sorry everyone I have been given an extra workload right now and my insomnia has been kicking my butt. So I have been trying to catch up on sleep and can now understand why sometimes you can't get posts up. Please forgive me and I will have us caught up soon!
Ok, i'm back. Thanks for your patience guys.
Since GM Wolf so ably botted Cil in his last post, I'll wait a bit to post in gameplay.
Are you confused? Do I need to clarify something or give you a linear path to follow?

was that to all of us? Quantos is waiting, as the plan was for folks to trip the traps from a distance.
i probably didnt make it clear, but from the fact that not all of us can take the available cover, Quantos will remain outside of cover and try to just use his shield to shield his eyes and close them against the color spray.
Well i am back form my vacations and slowly catching up to things both here and IRL :)
Surprise Round
20 Quantos
19 Tanira
So check out the spoiler of what you hear as you continue down the passageway. We will wait for your actions. Then we will start Round 1. This encounter will not be what you normally expect from one, though I believe initiative is needed.
I need Quantos' action before I can move forward!
oh, i horrendously misunderstood. i thought i already took my action but that was before round 1. sorry about that.
Sorry everyone, I have been rather busy this week and dead tired. I actually got some good sleep on Thursday, I crashed from 4 p.m. to about noon on Friday. Then Halloween showed its ugly head and life sucked me away again. Yes it was a long week. I am just catching up and hope to keep things going smoothly this weekend and the days following. Please forgive me and on with the games.
Its all good. Im pretty hung over myself. Gonna eat some cinnamon and sugar toast and drink a big bottle of water at my IRL DND game here in an hour.
Yep, pretty sure I am waiting on Quantos. He may kill the goblin and then the encounter might just stop... or will it?
It feels like this and most of my other campaigns have pretty much died.
Curious actually. I would have to lie to say it was my favourite game so far, but it certainly was a very persistent game, going on over a very long period of time. I think we still can unravel the mysteries of our enemies and allies, who is who and whose pawn in this game we actually are. :)
Wish I had taken a slightly better shot at the goblin... two points of damage. While Tanira doubts that killing the goblin is absolutely necessary, she's still not about to risk her life to find out. It still is a goblin. ^^ From the perspective of a goblin Tanira would rather like to be seen as a cruel, heartless slayer than a victim.
True I do hope you will find out more what secrets have been plied and who is pulling the strings behind the curtain!
I will still keep playing even if it is just one player. As you can tell with Cil and I, as it was in the beginning. I will bot Quantos tomorrow when I can get on and he may just slay that goblin with Tanira.
Am i missing something? I had absolutely no idea we were waiting on me, and i have been keeping up with the posts.
Your post said Round 2, quantos misses his attack. Then said round 2, and you posted initiative. My last post was that i was waiting for the others to come along. I suppose i should have been more concise (re-reading my last post, i admit it wasn't very clear).
i thought everyone else would be posting again before it got back to me.
Sorry folks I have been out of it with lots of RL stuff going on, let alone working long hours and trying to get enough sleep. Also I have been having some troubles with my internet provider. I hope to be around more.
On with the show. Please post in here, the discussion tab ASAP, think up another item that is under 1500 gp.
+1 Mwk Chain Shirt
I am at work right now but I will post something as to what Tanira does beyond the will save in a couple of hours.
wasnt positive if it was my turn or not, the post wasn't exactly clear. apologies if it was not my turn, i just dont want to be the one holding things up
I understand, we just need to keep moving. ;)
Well, to repeat my last post in this forum... I'll post something within the next ten hours. I need some time to get back into the situation, though.
FYI: I will not be able to update until next saturday as i am away from home at the moment
Informing everyone; I'll be taking a break (still mostly working tough) from the 24th until Jan 4th
Happy Holidays to all my fellow gamer's
;)
Sorry all.
Happy New year to everyone.
Have being over celebrating to a reasonable degree,
Wish you all a better 2015 than 2014 was :)
Merry Christmas, New Years, and happy holidays!!! I know its late.
Sorry for the absence; work, life, and family have been keeping me ultra busy. Getting back into my normal schedule now.
What was the present you wished for and what is your New Year's resolution?
You guys ready? Let's get this going again! :D
I am certainly ready.
Excellent use of your heal skill Tanira, I applaud you! :)
Yes Cil would gain a +4 on her save due to Tanira's actions! Just to make sure she saved better safe than sorry, don't need the rogue or anyone low on strength especially for the coming fight.
Thanks.
I would like to point out that Tanira's is not a "Healer" as far as her role in the group is concerned, but a "Crowd Controler". She doesn't do a lot of crowd control, but that's primarily because she can cast only as many spells as she prepares and we're going in one run from one combat encounter to the next, which is why she's running on wands for a while.
Going to be travelling the next couple of days to Florida, visiting with family then off to Disney World for 4 days, then travelling back home.
So posting might get spotty at times, should have a connection everywhere, just might be too busy having fun with the family :)
Bot me if necessary, please.
I had the stomach flu and finally have recovered for the most part. It was a bad bout of trying to get sleep and getting to the bathroom in time. Sorry I didn't have the mind to let you all know.
You may not be a "Healer" but you are the best one with the skills and spells to do such. Our last two clerics did not stick with it.
Good to know Cil, have fun!
Sorry all, life caught up with me. Even the stomach flu held on, Ehhh!
I should be much more consistent, thank you for sticking through my delays and absences.
K, I'm back! Had a great time in Florida, back to regular posting...
thanks for your patience.
Sorry for being away. I was dealing with depression which was getting in the way of me being on here. Turning my life around for the better, searching for jobs, and making steps to improve myself. Please forgive me.
Anyways now comes the hard question, do you want to continue or would you prefer to start a new campaign? I will be asking all my games this so if you are worried about the lack of players, I am sure there will be quite a few. Though I am looking to how you want to continue as I have been away.
Hey Wolf,
Glad to hear you're looking after yourself.
This campaign's had so many starts and stops that it's hard to keep track :)
Might be best to reset...
I'd say reset.
I may have hidden the other campaigns of yours i am in, once they hit 1 month unannounced inactivity i hide them.
You may want to consolidate remaining players into less total games.
Yes we will reset then. Though I need to know who is interested still and if you want to play a similar campaign or something else.
I will play again. Not sure on what kind of campaign in particular, I'd look at what others came up with. I do prefer Eberron a lot, and would prefer not starting at level one again.
I was in two or three of your games before, but if you are resuming more than one game, I will stick to just one. My time for the boards each day is shorter than what it once was.
the weekend is the best time for me to build characters, since i prefer to sit down with a block of a few hours to do it rather than piecemeal throughout the week.
As such, If i could get some details about the restart, that would be sweet.
i am thinking about an artificer type character. the kind of guy with a bag of tricks, and going for Renegade Mastermaker, a PrC that I have always wanted to try.
I think I will have the game restart at level 3, unless you want to start at a higher level?
So we got Cil and Tenro, anyone else still here?
I will be working on the developments of the story tomorrow. Cil I would still like Saronis and you to have a similar past and hopefully we can all have connections.
I certainly wouldnt balk at a higher level, but i wouldn't push too hard. I was kinda hoping for level 5 so my next level could be prestige class, or level 6, so i'd be level 1 in a prestige class.
is this Artificer conversion permissible?
then, looking at this Renegade Mastermaker conversion as a prestige class when i qualify, if that is OK.
I am still here.
Yes the Artificer conversion is permissible. I am using it for one of my artificers! :) Yeah I could see that prestige class being used.
Good to know Tanira, are you going to stick with her or create a new character?
I would prefer to stick with this character, if possible.
It is great you want to keep the same character, I was just giving anyone a chance to change if they wanted.
So it sounds like we got Tanira as our back up healer/Witch, Cil our rogue, Tenro the artificer, and Saronis the fighter. Do we have any other players still interested? Do we want to just go with us four?
Would you like me to start a new thread? Which would include a new recruitment?
Any suggestions on what you would like to see in the next game? Any specific areas you want to adventure or explore?
Any organizations that you want to be apart of or against?
Please re-equip yourselves to the 3000gp as per your 3rd level. Unless you want to do it by background... ;)
Presently looking for feedback, but if you don't care to speak up I can just make the decisions.
Four is fine, or five would be good. Artificer, at least the 3.5 version i know, was a great 5th wheel like a bard. We could use a divine healer, in terms of roles.
new thread might be good, just to have a clean slate. maybe post a referential link of this one in the campaign in case we need an easy look back.
i hope we level to 5th/6th fairly quickly after the start.
specific areas... i feel Xen'drik is somewhat overdone. Droaam has some good spots, Mournland is surprisingly underdone, Aerenal and Argonessen are very seldom used. There is also a simple adventure in the more civilized lands to start. I am already in a game that is in Q'Barra and it isn't going well for the PCs, so I am kinda tired of the jungle, haha. Darguun would be an interesting one, i enjoyed reading the novels based there.
Organizations:
Daughters of Sora Kell - could be very interesting working with them.
The Aurum - could be interesting, but not suitable at level 3 probably.
Blood of Vol - a stock enemy, could be interesting working WITH them instead
Emerald Claw - same idea as Blood of Vol
The Chamber - could be interesting in terms of long-term development, but kinda boring in the beginning
Ikar's Salvage - good at low levels
Well, I've alway liked the flavour of this game, shadowy forces guiding/forcing the party here and there.
I'm location agnostic.
ok, looked at the recruitment thread. looks like:
25pt buy (PF rules)
lv 3
3000 gp
traits: 1 campaign, 1 random (i see i made a few in the thread) and 1 other?
i will put a character together tomorrow
I am looking at my character being a Last War veteran, and i think he is going to have a prosthetic limb, if allowable, to hold him over until he can actually learn to graft a warforged arm onto himself.
