have fun!
Thanks Tenro! I will do what I can, it is all a secret to me...
Wish you have a pleasant time, and a great wedding afterwards!
The wedding is June 20th. I had a fun time. You guys waiting on me?
Good question Cil. Knowledge Local check...
If you are just going to ask an OOC question and only that please post it in discussion!
I would like everyone to check in ASAP here in the discussion thread. Are we still aiming for posting once per day? Some have been slacking and I have been apart of it for a few days. I know RL can be hectic at times and just want us all to be on the same page. This is one of my top campaigns right now! Also any constructive critisism about my DMing or anything that I should make better?
Still checking, I just haven't had anything to respond to, and as far as I know, Rho and Shalyna are supposed to keep an ear out for trouble.
I am sorry, I find it hard to focus on my play by post games recently. I'll post more regularly.
Still here. Been checking everyday. Rhobannon just isn't a good mix for a disguise mission in a pirate bar. I'm content to let others do what they're good at.
Right Shalyna and Rhobannon. I just want to make sure we are all on the same page for posting each day. Thanks Sharea. Yes I know weekends does vary.
Hmmmm. Don't have knowledge local, unfortunately.
Just to make sure that I am not missing anything: We are trying to distract folks in order to get through into the warehouse without anyone stopping us, right?
And we do have the box with the replacement vase with us?
I checked Sharea's stats again and noticed she is good in both diplomacy and intimidate, but I don't think that would be very helpful at the moment.
Cil has the vase in the box. Yes, the end goal would be to get one of us into the back room that has the skills to pick locks likely or disarm traps, thus Cil at least. Saronis is merely muscle and a distraction if needed.
Will do Falko, thanks for letting us know.
Sharea and Falko could assist Rhobannon. You have to be able to hit the DC in order to assist, so those with a +6 on perception or higher.
Cil's group doesn't know this but it will be 22 minutes before the other group gets there. Anyone want to do anything? Stealth checks if just hiding in the alley.
With Rhobannon's help you would be able to get the better check. If you are only making an OOC post please post it in discussion! I guess we are waiting on what you see...
I did not get anyone's thoughts on actions or any stealth checks for being in the alley. :(
By my calculations 22 minutes behind... in combat that would be 2200 rounds or something absurd like that... :(
Well you did pump them for some good info.
Rhobannon, you don't think Rook was a shifter before. He looked like he was a halfling, a beefy one at that but a halfling. All shifters are human size.
It is Rook, though perhaps a side you have not seen before. Lycanthrope and all.
oh jeez, i feel dumb now. you basically spelled it out and i missed it, haha!
i had forgotten about full lycantrhopes in eberron
If you want your character to be sea sick or not let me know otherwise we will let the dice decide. If you are sea sick, fortitude save DC 12 to keep it mild. A fail means throwing up and being bedridden.
A 1 means you are sea sick.
Please post what you do, your interactions with others, etc.
Heads up,
My posts will be sparing for the next day. I will be flying on a trip. The trip will be mostly leisure, but I will be working via phone/laptop. As such, I will still have time to post.
If you are one of those folks that has estimated the approximate times I am typically online, I will be on at different times. Five hour time zone difference will have me signing off five hours early, but also a drastically reduced work schedule will have me begin posting much earlier.
Sorry everyone I have been sick and not able to get proper Internet. I should be able to update tomorrow but please understand I may still be in and out.
Thanks for the update Tenro, I am sorry I could not inform you all earlier.
Now almost 100% healthy and in full swing of wedding planning. The 20th so soon! Sorry my RL has been taking most of my free time and for the next week I will likely not have any internet.
Anyone want to take over for the next fight or until I get back?
not i. i am in a period of high transition, awaiting a document that tells me where i will be moving (which, from hawaii, anywhere is far)
Wish I could, but I've got enough on my plate already.
Nice planning to do though :)
No go on the takeover , I'll wait for you .
still around.
Yep.
Wedding, check. Moving in, ongoing. Summer job, found. Free time limited.
Nonetheless I am back now and plan to be posting at least once per day. Sorry for being away for so long but as you can tell from the list above I have been very busy and my internet limited. Who is still interested in this game?
I really want everyone to be onboard and hope we can continue soon!
Still here! Glad to have you back.
Nice to see you back, Wolfie!
Even better that wedding, moving and job are all settled....Huzzah!
I'm onboard!
still here! still interested!
i was busy with a lot of things (mostly video games and work) so the break was welcome!
I am glad most of you have checked in and are ready to get back to the game!
With your sleep you have four options:
Wake up, sleep for the night, sleep for a day, or sleep the whole voyage.
Either make a comment of it here or in your response in the gameplay thread. You don't have to make a decision yet if you want to communicate in your dream first. If you are confused at all ask your questions here.
It appears Sharea has dropped from the face of PbP.
I and Shalyna and I are waiting on Cil...
I had hoped to wrap up the dreams and move to the ship landing at its destination. But I will just wait.
Falko appears to just want to rest and relax in the cabin watching over you all.
Do you want to find a replacement for Sharea? You can easily find one in game or we can look for one through recruitment.
Each of you who slept the entire voyage gain 4 bonuses. Suggestions are welcome but the first three are pretty basic. Aid (until you are at 1/2 life), +2 to one ability score for the next week, the ability to cast a 2nd level spell 1/day.
Each of you should come up with a fourth ability akin to your spirit guide. Also come up with 3 spells that are 2nd level or below.
our spirit guide? i thought i was talking to someone elses? haha
Actually, I have someone in mind for a replacement. I play with her in a few other games and she's always has an interesting character. If you don't mind I can ping her and see if she's interested.
So sorry guys, loss of internet on many ends, really busy with the new job, and barely finding any time to do much more than survive in RL. Finally I can surface and hopefully can make some time each day. I know you have all heard this from me before but I do want to play, just RL has been bulldozing me. This is the first time I have had time to pull out my laptop in the past two weeks. Thanks for understanding and I hope to move things forward today.
Shalyna feel free to ping your friend. Though I can understand a decrease of interest in the game with my lack of participation. :( So sorry guys.
Hey Glad your still with us, Wolf. :)
Still here! And PM is being sent in a few.
Each of you who slept the entire voyage gain 4 bonuses. Suggestions are welcome but the first three are pretty basic. Aid (until you are at 1/2 life), +2 to one ability score for the next week, the ability to cast a 2nd level spell 1/day.
Each of you should come up with a fourth ability akin to your spirit guide. Also come up with 3 spells that are 2nd level or below.
I am still here!
Also, I could use some clarification on the above.
Bonuses:
1. Aid until at 1/2 HP - clear enough for me
2. +2 to an ability score for a week - clear enough for me
3. cast a 2nd lvl spell 1/day - does this have to be a spell we know, or can it be from any spell list?
4. fourth ability akin to spirit guide - what do you mean akin to spirit guide? Should this be something like a divination, or should it be closer aligned to a class ability in terms of power (Occult Adventures has some cool spirit-guide themed things i was thinking of re-reading if this is the case)
three spells that are of 2nd level or below - is this related to #3 (essentially being a list we choose from 1/day) or more related to #4 (something the spirit provides us)?
And life has finally given me a chance to breathe. First good news: I got a full time job, a Computer Lab Specialist at an elementary school; downside as you can tell a lack of time.
I will be making time for this game as well as likely just one or two more. I sure hope you all still have interest in the game. I am a bit more surprised more interactions didn't happen while I was away but I am back.
My 'new' home has many chores and a fixit list a mile long, another reason I have been sooooooooo busy. My internet is still scetchy but I have made my plan work out with my phone.
Please make note of your 'advantages' if you have not done yet in the discussion thread. Please check in here as well as the gameplay to continue our movement.
Thanks for understanding and again sorry for the wait.
Rhobannon:
Which ability score are you increasing?
The 2nd level spell should be associated with your dragon mark or you in general, it can come from most any spell list. I was hoping each character would come up with three suggestions for what spell would work for them the best.
I know I was being vague about the fourth ability and was hoping to see some interesting ideas. Basically an idea of an ability that you can focus where you want to develop your character such as shadow/stealth, earth/constitution, Grace/fire. So to be able to produce flames, take on a shape (monster/werecreature), to blend in with shadows better, to manipulate your body (squeeze/shape), regeneration, control over metal (magnetism), etc.
An example:
Saronis
Aid until at 1/2 hp
+2 on Str for a week
2nd level spell 1/day: make whole(5), bull str(4)/bear's endurance(3), shield other (1), heroism(2) (after thinking about it spells marked with preference 1 to 5.)
Ability: to craft weapons (blades quickly like a full round action but the blade and materials dissipate after the battle), to repair weapons quickly with a snap, if the artificer (Rho) wants this ability or something akin to it then second option
2- endurance, to stay in the front and take the brunt of the attacks, regeneration,
3- or an ability to rally allies defenses or offenses. (Leadership call to arms)
Ah, OK. First off, still here for this game.
I didn't put forward ideas because I didn't really know where to go with it, but now that you post that, i have the perfect idea.
The idea of the fourth ability i am thinking the ability to become a construct for a time or something like that. Or maybe able to eat metal to heal myself.
2nd level spells:
- Snow Shape, which functions like Stone Shape, but I would like a Metal Shape version instead
- Kinetic Reverberation
- Instant Weapon
- Shield of Fortification
- Make Whole
- Ironskin (though this is less important since it kinda duplicates the ability I asked for above)
Sounds good Rho. Take the ability to heal eating metal and metal shape. Though for now pick one type of metal.
@GM Wolf: I think I'm going to bow out. It's been fun, but I don't think I'm up for trying to get back into a character's head when I honestly thought the game was dead.
I thank you for the opportunity to play Shalyna, and I have enjoyed playing with everyone, but I am bowing out. I wish you guys luck and hope you have fun.
I am certainly interested in taking a spot in the game GM Wolf.
I have a character already prepared from a past Eberron game, a Shifter, I will post with that Alias now though it may need some fine tuning based on the character creation rules for this thread.
I am also interested in playing a Warforged though if everyone seems pleased with my Shifter submission I will stand pat with that.
Thank you.
