GM Aest's PFS 6-15: The Overflow Archives PbP (Inactive)

Game Master Aest

Where we discuss.

Hey Aest! Good luck! If you need anything, let Bret and I know. Both of us have run this one and loved it!

I can't wait to see what you do with all the crazy characters in this one.

Hmm

PS You can always decide to register your game late for PFS PBP Gameday if it looks like you guys will finish before December 20th. That can happen if you have a group that is on fire!

Super snakey dot

Aww yeah, it's gonna be fun on the bun!

A little about me as a GM. I like to put pictures of the characters directly into the text, usually as links on said character's names the first time they appear. If the blue text bothers anyone, let me know, but I find it to be a flavorful way of showing what people look like rather than simply telling.

Gameplay is rolling!

Joining the dots here.

BTW, you would prefer I can change to a wizard

Play what you would prefer to play. It'll all work out alright, I think.

Dot!

Hello hello!

Repposting this here for convenience!

I really, really hope you like limericks, because jeeze are these hard to write.

I don't know if your party likes them but I LOVE them. Everyone has done a great job with this competition so far. Consider me thoroughly diverted...

*Applause!*

Hmm

Heh, sorry, I realized after I posted that it was going to be more work for you, but it was the only contest I could think of that pit them against each other and not us, and would provide information no matter who won.

Actually, it fits really well with what the flavor of this whole scenario is supposed to be.

I Love limericks, Ysmero? Not so much.

Lmao.. sorry not sorry for starting that.. but I have to say.. the mental image of the dwarf rhyming had me laughing out loud.

Personally I'm sorta into rhyming...Dwarves not so much...

Oh, since there is a Cheliax faction label on this scenario, would Zarta Dralneen have Aldur (as a member of the Dark Archive) be on the lookout for anything specifically?

Whoops! Totally missed that tag. There's a mission, I can have Zarta brief you "before" you go in inside a spoiler if you'd like.

Yes, please! A faction mission in a library for my librarian character is not to be missed!

Those poems are quite a puzzle, especially with the language barrier. I'm not sure how hinty I'm allowed to get in PFS, so I'm not sure what suggestions I could make to ease your curiosity besides that there's plenty more of them.

.....lovely...... lol

I do hope everyone's enjoying this scenario so far. I picked it for its ludicrous, whimsical nature, and I do hope I'm doing it justice.

Posting over the next week should be possible, but may be minimal between Wednesday and Friday due to Thanksgiving, just as a heads-up.

Other than being mostly ineffective so far, I am having fun. You are doing a good job. You keep the pace moving, the initiative orders are clear and kept up to speed, and communication is clear and concise.

I think you're doing a great job maintaining the atmosphere, and this has been a really amusing scenario. Just wish I'd played one of my smarter characters.

I think it's a blast! You're doing great. Also, I have had a ton of eemergency dental work done in my life, and those tooth fairies are giving me the creeps.

lmao me too. I have to be sedated even for a quick check up.. have since I was little. Damn military dentists really screwed me up as a dependent, then again as a member!

I'm enjoying it. Especially the fey tie in as that was what Orophin was working through in his last adventure.

Hello all. Things are going to slow down for me over the next week due to the holiday and some other things. I'll try to post a couple times, but if I miss a day, sorry.

No worries! Happy Thanksgiving, all!

Where we discuss.

Sorry, it's been crazy busy for me. Car breakdown, car crash, purchase of new car, home remodel. I'll get back to posting tonight.

Yikes! I'd figured you had a good reason to be away. I'll hold off til you're back.

Wow.. serious bad luck, man. Hope everything gets better for you!

Wow.. serious bad luck, man. Hope everything gets better for you!

My car broke down Sunday night, and as I drove my wife's car to work Monday morning, I rear ended someone. Two days before my 38th birthday, and it was my first accident.

Well, think of it this way. 1) (and I mean this with no sarcasm whatsoever) Happy birthday. 2) at least you are getting all of the bad luck out at once, and not stringing it along through the year. 3) You are *apparently* safe and sound, and your wife hopefully has her health. Things could be a lot worse. Sending good vibes, man.

It seems that every now and then the universe feels the need to kick me in the shins a few times to remind me of where I have been in the past, and how far I have come. Count the blessings of health, family, and home.. and remember how fortunate that you are. Things could *ALWAYS* get worse.

Yeah, no one's hurt, and we've been planning on getting a new car, so it's all fine in the end. Just made for one VERY stressful week.

Completely understand that!

So, would you all believe I got into another accident this weekend? As I was driving home Friday, in my brand-new car, I blacked out on the expressway, sideswiped the personal vehicle of a local police commissioner, and plowed into the side of the expressway. No one's hurt, but man, I'm almost considering giving up driving.

Maybe save up and get a Tesla?

Yikes. Tough breaks, man.

Geez. Good luck, and I hope that the cause of the blackout is figured out and easily fixed. Sending positive vibes!

Blackouts while driving isn't good!

At least the police commissioner was there to lend a hand, that is something good. Better him than a gang.

He was actually super chill about the whole thing, and he put in a good word for me with the state trooper that showed up, saying that I wasn't driving like I was drunk or distracted until everything went off the rails suddenly.

It was a long day between work and a visit with my grandmother. Don't be surprised if there's no post today, but there will be one by tomorrow at noon-ish.

Chronicles are up!

I'm working on getting this registered as a Gameday game. If I can, I'll have a roll for boons. If not, well...it's been fun!

Forgot day jobs

perform: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (3) + 18 = 21

I'll use my star to roll again

perform: 1d20 + 18 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 18 + 2 = 34
75gp. Do you want to edit it in, or are you okay be putting it on?

You should be fine to do it. I'll be out of town for a bit, so it could be hard for me to do it.

Day Job: Perform (sing): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 24

Thank you for running this Aest!

Thanks for running! It was great, and in the case of the tooth fairies, exceedingly creepy.
