GM Blood's Age of Worms in Golarion

Game Master David James Olsen

Would you allow Thassilonian wizard?
Great concept for a Thassilonian wizard of Greed that uses wit, the right spell, and wealth to overcome obstacles barring him from greater knowledge.
I also have a pretty decent undead sorcerer concept.
Which would you rather see?

Character: Ingrid Anika Nina Jones

GM Blood, Given that the ARG, Blood of Fiends, and Blood of angels are coming out in a few months (with angels two months later),
would you allow swapping of racial abilities or other player options with the soon to be newly published material?

Enaris Whatever you want to present is fine

Azure In my home games I generally do that, especially if it fits with something already established. We won't be too far in when it comes so as long as it fit the theme of the character and after I reviewed it, I wouldn't be opposed, more than likely.

Thanks GM Blood,
Now I have to decide between Aasmir, Half-elf or *Tiefling,
(*I'll be quickly viewing the tiefling options in CoT)
Or should I just roll some dice to decide?

Definetly interested in this. I would greatly enjoy making a Monk. Can post the character shortly

Finished up Bimbur--bought CLW potions in case of lack of channeling.
Encumbrance is now done down to copper and pound.
Will add ministats section and canned dice rolls if selected.

Monkeyfeet228 - Here's my submission. Did not think I'd be up this late finishing this but oh well. I like it but it still feels rough for some reason so if you have any commentary please feel free to input.

(Side note: Apparently forgot to do the appearance section but it's almost 1A here so I think I'll leave that for tomorrow.)

OK almost 24 hours to go. I have started going through everyone's submissions to be ready. I think this is going to be a hard cut down for me

They're never easy. I had a hard enough time trying to pick a replacement for a single character, but it's much harder when you're trying to put together a decent party, and can't really take each submission on its own.

Same here.

And I have to keep adding a few more tools (and NPC aliases) to my list every now and then

There are a ton of good ones, and I also have gotten some ideas for future changes as well. I think I have a good idea which way I am headed as long as a new one doesn't come in and shatter that.

And 20 people come in with Nobel-quality ideas.

*crosses toes too* lol

*crosses eyes*

*crosses eyes*

Strips naked, paints self blue, sacrifices a goat, then runs around the woods for a while scaring tourists. :)

Thanks GM Blood,

I decided I'll change Half-elf to Aasimar.

edit: the background will be done and posted in before midnight.

(GM_Blood you may like the secret in the character's backstory)

Azure:

Would you be willing to take Disable Device if I made it a class skill for your archetype to fill that role? Also the more I think of it the more I think you should remove the curse (and you may be doing that with a race change)

Also willing to follow an Empyreal Lord?

I noticed I'm listed as a paladin of Iomedae and while I'm sure she'd love to have me, my allegiance is already sworn to Sarenrae.[/cheeky]

Sorry Aerandir I have corrected it in my notes. I woke up with a headache today and mistakenly took a Tylenol PM instead of the regular. All morning at work into the afternoon I felt really tired and distracted)

When I got home I had the headache back so when I reached for some pills it dawned on me what I did.

Time for bed,
I dumped as much of the Background data as I could and I'll finish it tomorrow (I make interconnecting backstories of friends and family)

For what it's worth, I've got disable devices at +8, and 7 skills/level (and sneak attack dice).

If drow or uppity party elves were in the future, Bimbur was thinking of taking ancient enmity. Having never done WiG, I just have Bimbur as a traditional get the goblins and orcs dwarf.

Lessien Me asking some things isn't a sign I have picked anyone, just trying to line up some roles.

Bimbur I would take ancient enmity

Thank you everyone who applied. It was a tough choice and it took me a little longer than I thought, but here are the six I decided to choose (above the 5 originally)

Rowena Lordail
Trevor the Yellow
Rauno Redpath
Kelkzar Redjaw
Lessien Nenmacil
Quintus, Human Cleric of Sarenrae (John Woodford) Didn't see an alias

Please post in the discussion thread as your alias. Additional backgrounds from where you left your backgrounds to how you are at the start of the game to come this weekend.

Thanks again everyone!

Well, Congrats to the lucky Six.

congrats!

Shot down again, good luck guys

After reading through the book's preface, I may be interested in starting my own Age of Worms. But only if I get denied to my third game. I have two up, and if I get accepted into another one, I don't think I will be able to cope with it as well as work. Age of Worms is a very vague book, so a lot is up to the GM.

I wonder how many applied?
and if the number was great enough would he make a second group?

if my count is right, 24 applied

Thanks for the consideration and congratulations to the lucky six, I'll keep an eye open if another DM wants to run this adventure path, I've heard it's awesome.

Have fun, guys.

Congrats to the chosen ones!

Any chance for alternates?

If one of you good sirs decide to run a second group of AoW with the characters here presented I would be interested in joining as well.

Congratz to the chosen six.

Thanks for choosing me; alias forthcoming.

I would consider running a second group, but as this is my first pbp running I want to see how much work it will be.

I don't think I would have a problem picking another six from the remaining group.

Give me some time and keep an eye out for this thread if you still have interest.

if it's your first time GMing a PBP game,
I'll give you a tool that has worked wonders for me.

Generic NPC Aliases (you'll see 8 generic NPC aliases in my alias page)

My alias list

The only thing you have to do is post their name in the post of the Generic

Thanks! Any help and suggestions are appreciated!

Your welcome.

I considered running an Age of Worms, but I realized I don't have time to do all the conversions. So I opened a Curse of the Crimson Throne instead.

The one advantage I had with AoW is that I have been running it for a monthly-ish (more like every 2-3 months) game with my friends I grew up with. They are now 12th level and a good way through it so a lot of the legwork for me is already done.

Ooh... you wouldn't have a digital document of the statblocks, would you?

I have physical printouts for the first 2, and digital for the next 4. (My computer had an issue and I lost the first two) I am planning on doing the first and I have to update my formatting on the middle 2 and I can send them to you when I get those done.

Ooh. please do. It would help me a lot. thanks!

I would be interested in the files too, and will be keeping an eye out for you to start a second group. Either way, congrats to those who made the cut, and good luck!
