GM Brayden's PFS First Steps: "Intro to Lore" - Group 1 (Inactive)

Game Master Brayden Green

agreed. WAIT who ya calling bloodthirsty socipaths

Well, we *are* adventurers. That's pretty much the definition.

I'm sorry. It was definitely not my intention to hold up the action with a discussion on semantics and colloquialisms. I will be certain to be more explicit in explaining my action in the future.

Also, I did not mean to say that you have limited life experience, DM. It was intended to be a playful jab, so please do not take it to heart. Sometimes it is difficult to communicate exactly what you intend when written text strips away intonation and subtext.

Here, as my way of making it up to you, please have a delicious plate of internet cookies.

:)

They look a lot bigger and more tasty the most of the cookies I've dealt with on the internet! Plus I'm always throwing mine out... Bad-Dum Chhh!

Just get us out already of this awkward situation, I would really appreciate it :-)

My pregnant wife has a kidney stone, so I will be in and out today.

I'd like to be clear that I have no visible weapons except for the dagger that is now tucked in my belt. GM Brayden in case it ever comes up should I roll sleight of hand, or will I just need to roll it when necessary?

If you want to draw it without going into INIT immediately, or to alarm anyone, than you'll need to draw it as a sleight of hand.

What about the daggers I've hidden on my person?

What about the daggers I've hidden on my person?

Same thing. Rogue cloaks are devised with "hiding" pockets on them.

It costs a move in combat, but if you want to do it secretly outside of combat, there you go.

Yeah, I want my normal daggers concealed. I'll wear this silver one on the belt for the time being.

Wow! I'm out for a day (weekend) and now I have to read more than 30 posts?!? You guys are very expeditious! Btw. Please, please tell me that someone remembered to ask Chelaxian lady "what" is her pet, before we entered?

It's been a surprisingly productive (in the posting sense) weekend. and I believe we did ask her, yes. :)

I work weekends (which are usually slow) so I prefer this speed.

yep, and whether or not they could hurt it.

They were very diligent... even .... diplomatic, dare I say?

He seems to be telling the truth

Look, with my roll there, he could be selling me a parcel on the moon, and I'd still think he was telling me the truth :-) But enough with my meta-gaming, Haraldir is inclined to believe him.

Sorry guys, had a job interview today, and PFS tonight.

Fingers crossed. This job would be top 5 jobs of all time.

What field do you work in?

So I had my interview with the regional rep today. Needless to say he was impressed. It is just coming down to dollars and cents now, he offered me the job, but I want to be considered for the higher position.

I'll know about the higher position on monday.

It's a good day, all around.

(Sorry for the infrequent posting the last couple days. This is the 2nd person I've interviewed with for the position. I might be interviewing with HIS bosses on tuesday if they are seriously considering me for the upper position.)

I guess they take the store manager position seriously. :)

(To Answer Wibeke's question: I own my own company right now doing granite countertops, but I am switching industries, on account of the construction industry going to crap and all.)

Also, doing school on the side.

Happy FREE RPG day everyone!

I'll be out most of the day, as I'm running some Paizo stuff a good portion of the day.

Hope everyone had a good free rpg day/ father's day weekend.

Now let's get on this and finish this baby up this week, and get you all some PFS credit!

So, after 3 interviews (the final of which took place yesterday), peeing in a cup, salary negotiations, and things of that nature...

I am now officially the Assistant Manager of one the largest/busiest Gamestops in the state of Utah, with a very sure foothold to be the next Store Manager, and soon.

So now I get to spend my 9-5's talking about video games, and my off duty hours RPG'ing lol. My conversion to ultimate nerdness is almost complete!

Congratulations on the job! I promise I won't hold the fact that you are working at GameStop against you.

I was always under the impression that Gamestop didnt pay very well. mabye thats just for the standard peon?

Grats anyway Can I have a discount pls :)

I've been about celebrating my birthday today. Congrats on the job.

Grats ont he birthday.

Happy Birthday!

Yay for birthdays and awesome jobs!

Way to be born!

Gstop pay is decent at the management position. Nothing to brag about in the company of lawyers and such... The benefits are bleeding tremendous, though!

They will be paying my tuition, and short and long term disability, and the healthcare isn't bad, either.

It'll be a LOT easier to swallow when I hit Store Manager status.

wait you managed to talk them into pay for school. Thats sweet lol

Yeah, I am all for saving 8k as I finish off my degree.

So party loot is shared goods, but you HAVE TO BUY ANYTHING IF YOU WANT IT TO CARRY OVER TO THE NEXT SESSION.

So if something is consumable, you can use it. It does get subtracted from your total party gold though. Everything you acquire gets sold for 50% value at the end of the session. You total up party gold, split it into shares, and then compare that to what the maximum gold is. You are also getting gold for completing tasks.

You total all that up, and if it is over max gold, you get the max gold limit.

Also, anyone can buy the "special cool stuff" that you discover at the end. You have to buy in the presence of a GM, so my guess is we would just post it.

Then please ignore my acquisition. Gold is fine for me.

interesting, makes sense.

I think we can get this done by Wed. Lets do it so we can try the next one

hear hear!

Proceed with the proceedings

Been awhile sorry had family in town and also first week of work and training so things got a bit crazy things should be better from here on out. I'll post tonight again tonight when I'm at my cpu.

So im under the impression that the bow guy isnt around. he hasnt posted for the last 2 tasks. Should we fill in or just finish with out him.

You talking about the Haraldir fellow? It has been awhile since I've seen him.

Under the same impression also. I'm botting him when necessary. Closed last night and opened today, so this is my first opportunity to resolve combat.

anyone want to take my damn business law and ethics class?

Tempting! But heck no

Ethics may have been the most boring class I have taken. Not to mention every business course has an ethics chapter already. Enron and Worldcom really messed it up for everyone.

I would gladly trade you for my ethics class (albeit from three years ago). I'm in a doctor of psychology program. It was very much a "laying down the law" sort of experience.

heh my bachlor is business admin focus on finance :) ill pass on the doctorates thanks

So I initially meant this as just a one time thing, but I am liking it. I do have to make some decisions about how it is best for me to continue though, so just a quick poll... would anyone like to continue, or do some people want to take their gold and leave, as it were?

I'm good for continuing. I like PFS

I want to continue. Oh, and 1d20 ⇒ 6

As a friend would say Proceed with the proceedings

I like it. continue pls

I'd certainly stay on. I rather like Rutilus.
