Feral's Test of Tar Kuata (Inactive)

Game Master Feral

Discuss thing here.

Slay-archer checking in.

I'm a horc!

I am not a horc!

Yarrr. Any opinions on what to bring.

Choices:

• Benevolence (Horribly disfigured buffing Theurge 6)
• Peran (Vudrani Rat Boom Boom Mage 6)
• Kudor (Taldan Noble, Shield Basher 7)
• Hassam (Rahadoumi Archaelogist 6)
• Eshah (Ifrit Desnan Time Traveler 6)

Currently leaning towards Benevolence

Benevolence it is!
Character sheet should be good, haven't added consumables yet though. Thanks for the invite, I miss you guys.

I'm glad the PFS police is here. I've got some crimes to report courtesy of that horc over there.

Red claims he's got a fourth coming but I remain skeptical.

Well whose fault is it I got put in charge of recruitment?

^^^

As a warning, Benevolence's usefulness is somewhat limited. I do know lots and lots of buff spells and can give anybody a communal flame that wants one though.

I am only level 3. Mostly because I am a slacker.

That's average five. You guys want to play up or down?

Up!

No choice anymore.

For season 6 adventures if we're APL 5 and 4 players we play down but without the 4 player adjustment. If we're 5+ players we play up but with the 4 player adjustment.

I could bring a different character if we want to massage the APL up or down.

I can too.

It's not ideal but would you be up for playing a pregen Peperic?

If Pepric doesn't mind getting kilt playing up, either Rayne or I can swap up a level and bring us to 5.5 which lets up choose which way to round and we can play high then if we want.

Do you have a 7 you can bring?

We'll protect Peperic.

<- Pirate Rob

Kudor has a poorly worded rules issue that needs GM adjudication.

I am happy to bring this character instead if it makes people happier with our APL.

Hrm. I'm inclined to say that when you're shield slamming you don't get the +2s from improved bullrush and greater bullrush. It would trigger the AoOs from greater bullrush.

How have prior GMs ruled?

I'm good either way. I do suggest a scroll of shield other/Mrachni preparing it for Peperic. It might protect him from his hopes being crushed. Might.

Kudor has my Dragon's Demand Credit and has only actually been played once before.

In that case (a little later down in the thread I linked) the GM gave me the extra +2s on the free bull rush.

I am totally of the opinion that it's unclear as written. I think I'm supposed to get the +2s but I also don't think the rules entirely support that position.

Sorry to create more work.

That's probably a good idea, Rayne. Mrachni can prepare a shield other a day for Peperic (instead of bull's strength)... that's 7 hours a day out of 24 that he'll be somewhat protected. A scroll a day would bump that up to 10 hours, but at a cost of 150gp a pop...

I can cover the cost of a scroll. How long would we be gone for?

Looking over the provided maps it looks like a week there and week back at least.

Well I can't buy 14 of them so we'll have to take our chances on the road. But I can get one for the inevitable dungeon crawl.

I can prepare a pregen. Not like I haven't before.

Sorry, for those of you not in my other games, my dad had bypass surgery on the Tuesday prior to Memorial day or something like that, days are mixing together. home life has been a bit hectic and our dishwasher broke so we had to buy a new one etc.

Just tell me what to do and I'll get the pregen made tonight. Class ideas or should i just pregen another paladin to apply to this one?

Real life comes first.

Play whatever you think you'll have the most fun doing.

With everybody 5-7 the Shield Other probably isn't needed. Also with Paladin, Slayer, Warpriest, I think I'll stick with the Theurge (instead of the slayer) unless you guys particularly want the shield basher.

With the pregen, yea theurge would be better. 2 in the front and 2 in the back row.

Well this is the pregen pally I used previous. She's probably ready to go now, unless you can think of anything she might need.

Having the paladin pregen works out with what we have. We now have plenty of divine casting.

Lurker alert!

For a moment I was prepared to be extremely indignant that Feral hadn't invited me to this game. But then I remembered I've already played this scenario with him. So I'm slightly less prepared to be indignant. But not wholly unprepared for it.

So watch out.

And by the way - how many of you, when reading Mrachni's name, pronounce it with a soft CH, like in 'cheese'? Who gives it a hard sound, like in 'chaotic'? Just wonderin'.

Haaaalp, a lurker!

The latter. I mean what kind of slacky satin would pronounce it the other way?

I pronounce it Horc, emphasis on the Orc.

Just wanted to check in and ask if the DM is willing to accept another player. Looking for a good PbP thread to join, and this one has caught my eye a few times. Also Sorry if I intrude.

You're certainly not intruding; welcome to the boards!

I can't speak for the DM, but you might not know that this scenario is for levels 5-7... it looks like your character is level 1, is that right? If so, I might be able to hook you up with a game around that level range. How does that sound?

Howdy Mister Lurker. Unfortunately this is a PFS scenario so things aren't quite as flexible as a normal game. You're welcome to lurk but if you're looking for a game you'd be better served by poking around the recruitment threads.

That'd be awesome, I was trying to find a lower level campaign but haven't had much success. If it was as simple as tossing a few levels onto this character I'd be able to get that done in a few minutes. Figured it would be easier poking my head into a door and getting some advice from some vets of the PbP board.

Well, you can't just level up a PFS character... you have to play scenarios to gain the experience to level.

Just so we're clear, are you looking for Pathfinder Society games, or just any old play-by-post?

What the horc said. If you're looking for a PFS game, I'd be willing to run an intro for you if you can't find one.

Oh I was looking for a PbP, my guess now is that this is a PFS. My bad, thanks for being chill though I'll have to keep looking around the recruit threads.

No worries. This is indeed a PFS game, which is why Feral said it's not quite as flexible as non-PFS. :)

It's a PbP though, it's just a PFS PbP. PbP just refers to the medium.

I was just thinking...

It's too bad my Gnomish champion of Irori is 9th level. She'd be perfect for this scenario. Also I might be able to make Olabot explode with laughter. Her name is Sue Basilbottom.

What do you guys want to bet this so-called "champion" cheats?

What do you want to bet that you're not on gmail?

Shh, I'm sleeping!

Just a quick heads up, I'll be out of town until Monday night.
