Keep your hacking energy for acquiring the remaining arm. ;)
Staryth, are you still with us?
(Would like his input before officially opening the door.)
Sorry, ice and snow have been aren't friendly to powerlines. It didn't last long
Hey all. Long time no see :)
I was talking with GM RR today about possibly dropping back into the game now that real life has sorted itself out for the better. I've picked up running a few games since returning but am itching to get back in the player's seat.
He let me know that you all had a pair of players joining up soon and I wanted to check in to see if you all knew of anything that would be a good fit for the group. Obviously I'd be happy to drop Ruke back in after a long period of conning the locals out of their gold, but I'd probably do a little restructuring on him before doing so.
Good to see the game is still moving along and you all are closing in on the end of book 1!
Hey Ruke - good to see you back! We're definitely in the market for another player, and all the better to have a familiar face. I think you can build whatever character you want.
Hey, Ruke. Welcome back!
In other news, ShadowyFox has had to bow out of the game, meaning you guys are still out a divine caster.
If Ruke has ever dreamed of branching out into divine magic, this is a golden opportunity. :P
Waiting to see what we have coming from the divine class that RR mentioned. Brainstorming some random ideas till then :)
You may want to reread the post right before yours. ;)
Hey, its not my fault you posted while I was typing my response! :)
I'll see what kind of nonsense I can come up with from a divine caster perspective. I was leaning that way to begin with, so that makes it easier. Of course, it may leave Ruke a bit "modified". :)
That's fine. If you'll look at Nicolai's... "Disappearing act", I put a little more importance in having the game roll smoothly than I do in a strict stone-set continuity.
I have a pretty busy weekend coming up. It might be a day or three before I can have the next gameplay post up.
My apologies.
Again, my apologies, as I will likely be unable to make a sizeable gameplay post until some time tuesday.
In the meantime, feel free to level up to level 4. ;)
Sweet, need to find some time to level, but it shouldn't be too hard for a rogue.
You roll, and if it's under the average, you get the average instead.
(Rusty Rooster is a generous rooster. My group's kitchen table game has a very high power level.)
Lucius is ready, that I remember. Ruke pitched me a character, but I haven't yet had time to check it out. That will likely happen tomorrow.
The two new characters will likely get an introductory scene separately from the party, which will eventually lead the two groups together.
Ruke is trying to avoid overlap and at the same time provide some much needed divine support to help keep Staryth from having to serve as party healer. :)
I'm working on a second idea, but right now the character I've pitched to RR isn't Ruke at all.
Mainly that Ruke isn't overly impressive in a fight and him and Silvio have a lot of overlap being skill based characters. You have some inspire as well, but thats really not my main concern. I'm still trying to hammer him out as a divine character but halfling is a tough race for that without giving up a lot.
I have infernal healing!
WB Ruke
+2 for Con
Or Average...
Looks like Average
Correct, original Ruke was a Dawnflower Dervish, until I found out that type of bard didnt get inspire, and dropped the archtype.
However, I think a pure divine caster is going to make a good difference to the group, and would rather try to give that a shot. I've got a pretty fun oracle worked up that will really help with buffs and support skills, as well as the obligatory healing part. RR is going to have a look once he gets freed up and I'll probably tune it a bit before the end product.
That being said, the character is not purely healing devoted, so having plenty of ability for healing is beneficial. With Staryth and Lucius also having some abilities there we should be golden.
Level 4
HP 6+2 for Con +1 for Favored Bonus 9 total
Saves : +1 Fort, +1 Will
Attack +1
Spells 1st level
Skills: +1 Diplomacy, +1 Heal, +1 Knowledge Religion, +1 Sense Motive
Special Abilities: Spells, Channeling
+1 to Charisma
I'm glad to see a divine caster popping into the party, because the upcoming parts would be a bit rough without one.
Woohoo!
Level 4:
+10HP
+1 Ref
+1 Dex
Uncanny Dodge
Rogue Trait: Weapon Focus: Dueling Sword
+9 skill points - to be determined.
Skill points spent as follows:
Acrobatics
Bluff
Disable Device
Intimidate
Knowledge (nobility)
Perception
Sense Motive x2
Stealth
My current thinking is to take a level of Swashbuckler next, and then go into the Aldori Swordlord prestige class for a bit.

RR, without spoiling anything, can you be more specific about what might be rough? Obviously some ideas on what kind of divine goodness they could use is gonna help me! :)
I'll just say this: Make sure you can cast Remove Disease. That is all.
By the way, were you guys planning on making use of the wand of ghoul touch and the robe of bones, or do you intend to turn them in with the church? The bounty for turning in an unholy magical item is equal to the typical sales price; that being said, the city laws would probably turn a blind eye to heroes using such items for the good of all.

Considering thats a 3rd level spell, we wouldn't be able to touch that till 5th level. My guess is we would be seeing it at 6th if I go the oracle route. There are always scrolls and such.
That clue makes me very worried, lol. This isn't Mummy's Mask! :)
I get remove disease at 6 from my archetype. Praise Rasmir!
Lucius is a veritable white mage!

Hah, Rasmir. A good buddy of mine plays a priest of Rasmir in PFS. He's a hoot :)

Yep, I also have aid and if you have any divine scrolls, I am very good at using them.
Hey all, posting this to all my games because I don't have much time:
I'll be very busy today; I'm on the tail end of my software engineering studies, and today is the commitment ceremony for the Quebecois Engineers' Organization.
As you can guess, this will leave me little time for PbP.
See you all tomorrow!
I had a look at Gheris, by the way. Looks solid; I approve. I will be searching for a way to integrate him within the game. The Society should help provide a neat way in.
My apologies for not checking in today. It's been a long day and I've had a lot on my mind, with University almost finished.
I'll try and make up for it tomorrow.
Understandable - hang in there!

Wanted to give everyone an update on my schedule for the next few weeks, since I'm about to hit convention season full stride.
I am supporting or running conventions this weekend, next weekend, and the first weekend in May. Basically what that means is I'll be doing prep in the evenings, starting tonight, and will be mostly unavailable between Friday and Sunday of those weekends.
After this spat of weekends I will also be gone the first week of June supporting Origins and the last week of July for GenCon. During those two weeks it is likely I will have no time to post, and those specific conventions run from Wednesday to Sunday.
If I'm introduced to the group by then please GMPC me as needed! :)
A heads up to all my groups: I'm entering some of the craziest three weeks of my studies. I'm only that much away from graduating, and I have a lot of work to do. Since I'm DMing this one, I'll do my best to keep things rolling, but my posting will likely be somewhat lackluster during that time.
