I just realized that Xoc Xoc is a Halfling, that's awesome!
So does Xoc Xoc have an empathetic connection to Xahara? If so then having the cat be good at stealth and perception would be great. Even if you don't, it still might not hurt.
I think Iiwo is pretty much good. I left some gold in reserve thinking that we can buy a few last minute items if we get a chance to make some knowledge checks or talk to someone who might have more specifics of what's going on and what we might run up against.
As for tactics, Iiwo in the middle sounds good. He is neither particularly perceptive, quck on the initiative, or strong in melee, which of course begs the question, "then what good is he?" I'm not sure, as I've never played an alchemist before. I guess we'll see.
I will be bombing, and I can't shape the splash. If Kiley is out ahead, she should be forewarned that she may get caught in the splash occasionally if bad guys roll right up to her before she can get away. The splash is not too bad, and she can probably reflex save for no damage most of the time.
One shtick of Ciaran is being able to surround himself or the battlefield with magical fog, while being able to see 10ft. through it without the concealment. I'm not quite sure how to use it best - none of the wildshape forms seem to grant sneak attack, so it will probably remain a defensive thing.
I think I'm good to go with equpment now, but I chose to forsake many minor utility items for a wand of CMW. I may free up another 1000gp by eschewing a ring of protection.
Actually have a question for the GM. Do you allow the piecemeal armor from UC?

Hrmm...not sure, as I don't own Ultimate Combat. Can you explain it for me?
I have to check with the GM and I may have to move some skills to swing it, but what about whistling?
One whistle for all clear, two for enemies, three for big group of enemies or big enemies, and a scream for I need help.
I'm okay with you guys using a system such as this...especially the screaming part. ;)
We're close to getting started, folks. I might be able to have the game thread rolling tonight.

I imagine she can do a surprisingly good job of sounding like a little girl. :-)
On a more serious note, I think that in terms of her ranging ahead of the party, somewhere around 30 feet to 60 feet ought to do it. If she's 60 feet ahead she can get back to the party (or we can get to her) with a standard double move, and the party is far enough back that whoever would have a chance to try to perceive her would be at an additional -6 to try to pick up on the rest of the party. But hey, if you want to play a rogue you kind of have to expect to be stuck on point. ;-)
Piecemeal armor is complicated to explain. Here's a link. Pretty much mix-matching armor pieces.

Sweet, although my posting is probably going to be a little light at first, it's Finals week >_<
Well, off, seems that link doesn't work. Just tried it when I got home now. Oh well, never mind the whole piecemeal armor, a good mithril breastplate will work just fine.

Sounds easier for me, so I'm all in favor. Thanks.
So just curious, are we going to get started tonight or wait?

Funny you should ask....check out the gameplay link everyone! We're live!
Wonderful start, everyone! Unfortunately, I have this horrible work deadline weighing me down for the next couple of days, so my posting rate will probably suffer. I'll do what I can, but please don't get overly concerned if I get off to a bit of a slow start. This doesn't happen often.
No worries. I've got two other PBP's to keep me warm.
Kiley might be a little miffed though.
Patience is a virtue.

Hang tight, guys, I'll have a nice, big, juicy post for you soon enough.
Love, love, love, the role-play! I have chosen well.
Just hope you feel that way when the pranks start. :P
Okay that was a joke, sorta.
A paladin? Pull prank? Nevah! ;-3
In the last Module we did, we had a paladin of Shelyn and my fighter was a follower of Shelyn. Throughout the mod the paladin took out two ghouls Hollywood style, had my character hit him in the face with a sap, got us all to sneak in into the secret holy place (two fighters, two paladins, and witch NO ROGUE!), rob the cult blind, and tied up the head priest of the temple. We found out that the priest had written that the paladin was a fop. When the same paladin, after drawing Shelyn's holy symbol on the wall the guy was facing, went back into the room for his robes (to make it easier to sneak out), he stopped at the guys side, patted his head, and said "who the fop now?" I'll leave it up to you to imagine the reaction around the table.
Sound funny! Heehee. I'm currently in a 6 year campaign, a mix of 3.5 and pathfinder. So many funny events. Like the time our cleric was trying to bribe the child king, and used Miracle to conjure up the worlds best fudge! The bribe worked...the king had him executed for breaking the law, then had him true ressed. He technically died for his crime. XD but the king liked him. (we're currently lvl 20, going to be an epic game.)
So, are we all waiting on the GM or did everyone disappear?
Still here. I think we're all waiting on the Gm
Just checking. I don't want this one to die, I'm having too much fun plotting Kiley's spicy revenge on Rufus.
Same here. Enjoying watching the internal party conflict! Looking forward to the external conflict. :)
Be careful what you wish for...13 perception and good fort...
Ah, but what happens when he eats some really spicy peppers? (Ghost chili caliber if sh can get a hold of them.)
Oh no! Don't give Rufus a breath attack!
"Aw, c'mon! 'Ow bad can it be?"
Rufus sets the camp on fire.
"That bad, huh?"
Hoping the GM is still with us. @..@
Same here.
Come Back I was only kidding about the pepper prank, kinda. Okay that's a lie, but still, COME BACK!
Still here, guys, just in recovery mode from a pair of all-nighters. I'm kind of a wreck. I'll have something new by tomorrow at the latest. Hang in there.
Okay, as long as you're still alive we're good. I feel ya on the all-nighters I just had my last final today.
Good, looking forward to seeing some action :-)

That was thursday. I was hoping for something by now, but we don't even know what's going on or when GM Finder can resume his GM'ing duties. Here's hoping everything's okay.
Yes it would, but we need a GM, and it looks like ours went AWOL
Christmas can overwhelm. I suggest giving Finder until the new year to get back to us.
Sounds good to me.
I concur with Dr. Iiwo.
I agree.
Xôc Xôc thinks Talky Men all have good idea and will wait with Xahara until after Festival is over...
I too would hate to see this game die already. I would be willing to take over running the game temporarily until Finder is ready to return, but would want permission from Finder to do so...

Xôc Xôc thinks that if MonkeyGM does not come back then Friendly Ghost Man should run game for us. Xôc Xôc like idea of author running own adventure for us. Give us good feel for what he thinking when he make the words for it.
Agreed. Hoping something happens soon. Looking forward to this campaign! (m
all of my Rl games ate paused due to holidays).
