My post will be delayed by 30 minutes or so
Just cause I feel like guessing. I may or may not end up spoiling things so you have been warned. I just like to think I can figure things out given a chance. ;)
The handsome man is Praetor who destroyed the other gods to absorb their power. The old man and his son are the two remaining gods, I would guess the old man has too much juice and support from his son to get absorbed. While the son has too much juice from the dwarves that locked themselves away but still call him their god. As for the star prison well it could be a end of days deal upon its opening a great evil is released. The Scourge is the army/worshipers of the great evil locked away.
Anyone else want to guess or have a go at it? Very interesting post.
Looks to me like the best route is going to be to take the road east and then cut north between the two groups of trees.
Agreed.
So, the real question is...should I read Felisin's dream? I intentionally skipped it once I realized what it was, so I really have no idea what happened. Thanks for spoiler-ing your guess, too, Soris.
I figure, before we go into the ruins, we should determine marching order, too.
Definitely for marching order. Tierce, how do you want me to handle prepared spells. This is my first PBP spellcaster.
Galdor, here's what I do. Once it starts to matter, I put a spoiler in the bottom of my gameplay posts to show initiative, AC, HP, spells prepared, ammunition, and the like.

AC (Full, FF, Touch): 17, 17, 10
HP: 9/9
Saves (F,R,W): 2,0,6
Condition:
Flag (+1 morale bonus to friendly attack, damage, and saves v. charms and fear. 30' radius.)
Spells Prepared:

Stabilize
Magic Weapon 1/1
Shield of faith 1/1
Special Abilities:
Liberty's Blessing 6/6
Touch of Glory 6/6

I like that.

Isaac has the right of it, or if you want to prepare different spells then what you have in your character sheet, then just mention it in an ooc post for that day of gameplay.
And anyone can read the dream sequence if they like, which is why I didn't put it into a spoiler post
I consider what is on my sheet as my "spellbook." Today I have prepared
0 Daze, Detect magic, Ray of Frost
1 Color Spray
I think that Felisin will probably mention it anyway, I think she would keep the coin a secret for now but everything else she will speak of when she get's the chance so feel free to read it.
It's pretty interesting anyway.
I think Galdor is leading the party, no? Isaac is happy to, but will defer to anyone who has navigating skill.
It seems Galdor is smart, but not all that sure of where is is going.
I have the following spells prepared:
If everyone agree's on scouting them. Then one person with the highest stealth could go solo. Or if no one is good in stealth we could split into two groups, the encounter group made up of tough melee types. Then the second back up group that will hang back and surprise the enemy if they turn out to be hostile.
Thats my take on it, good plan/bad plan?
I, and Isaac, like the two-party approach. Of course, I'd like to see what the things even are first.
Not a bad plan at all. Galdor is annoyed so far at the lack of organization. He does not care if he is the leader, but he wants some sort of structure to the group.
organization in any group takes time, I've had campaigns make or break due to it.
When you guys are ready, have the melee's make their trained/untrained stealth checks
Opps we sniped one another. I guess I will edit my post. Soris does not need the attention. ;)
Edit-I think your post was eaten Galdor.
heading to bed guys, get the plan together and make stealth roles and everything will unfold tomorrow
We should be able to take 10 on stealth and use the tree's for some cover. For Soris that would be 11 stealth, I leave the tree/forest bonus for the DM.
So, anyone else watching the Queen's diamond jubille Flotilla parade right now? Or am I the only commonwealth countryman here?
Sorry, my basic position is part of the reason we had our tea party was so we did not have to worry about the royal family drama.
UK here, 4 day weekend yey ;)
Heh. I'm at church, but I dont think I'd be watching anyway. I never have really cared about ceremony and pomp.
Your at church? and you don't care about ceremony and pomp? ha
Absolutely. My church meets in a dumpy high school, we have a four piece electric band, and I'm wearing shorts and a Domo t-shirt. Plus, I'm using my tablet to take notes, look stuff up, and chat online. We're pretty relaxed around these parts =)
I'm a roman catholic, I don't get to be releaxed
No, no you don't. And on an unrelated note. My first attack of the campaign is a crit. It is either the sign of things to come, or I just used up my only one.
Oh, man. We're just crazy protestants.
Felisin made a crit as well, should have made the encounter more difficult
Are we going to use any sort of mapping system?
No, combat will be all mind's eye
ok
How did I miss an AC 15 with a +6 to attack?
Personal Note: I might not be posting much the next few days, my wife and I just lost a dear friend yesterday. So, if you need to propel the story, use single attacks and he might be deep in thought about what he has gotten himself into.

No worries, I'm sorry for the loss. I also recently had to cut back on online campaigns for family reasons of the same nature.
Soris is left for attack, then it's the kobolds turn.
This is what I get for sleeping in. XD
Posting in a sec.
Hey guys, make sure your still keeping an eye on combat rules. Even though this is pbp, we still have to stick to RAW as close as we can.
Boomer, it takes a full round action to reload that blunderbuss with regular ammo. I didn't see if you bought alchemical cartridges, but I will assume you have a few from your description of your attack. That still means its a standard action to reload, so you can attack next round.
Not sure if you guys know this, but when making dice rolls, if you do a preview, it will show you what your dice rolls are going to be and it will save those results for when you post. That way you can see if you hit or not, and then put in the roll for damage, and then post it.
Well sense we dont know the enemy defenses I think thats only useful for very low rolls. I mean Soris' last attack was only 11 but thats touch. Seeing as its a kobold it may still hit.

Thought I posted the AC of the kobolds, I will make sure to do it next time. And Kobold Touch AC is 12.
Oh man well what do you want from me I am not a pro spitter. :D
I missed again. How do I keep missing when I charge?
MY FACE!!! ;)
Geez seems alot of us missed this round. So few kobolds left to.
Hey Boomer do you have wrist sheath's?
You can use them to store up to 1 pound of ammo and use a move action to reload. The spring loaded ones cut it to a swift action but they are one shot as you have to recrank them afterwards.
Sorry Jacob, I post once in your recruitment forum and you get another app! Hehe
No worries. New blood is half the fun.
Just waiting for Boomer to post, and then we can move on to the next and hopefully last round. Stop missing people!
Jacob, check out my Cleric in your campaign.
