The OOC thread.
Check in everyone. In the next few days I will get you all settled in and we can start the campaign over Christmas weekend/next week.
Reporting for duty! Here's the Gobdling :)
woo hoo!!! so excited to be here! Thanks for the nod, GM CDW.
WOW! Goblin and grippli godlings?!?!? This will be interesting to say the least!
Oh, and hello everyone and Happy holidays!
So a Dwarf, a Grippli, a Goblin and a Kobold awake in the asylum. Sounds like the start of a bad fantasy joke. I'm glad to be here with everyone, happy holidays to everyone.
Can't wait for the good doctor to get us strapped in. Also glad to be playing with two of Adsapiens' goblin characters.
Anyways I will take this time to tweak my character sheet, make it less sore on the eyes and get my character description all ready.
Talk about Strange Aeons...
After reading through the first adventure I believe we should open with none of you remembering anything about yourselves outside of your race and your name. Even your abilities will be a mystery to you. As you encounter threats your abilities will function as normal but you should be astounded by what you are able to do. The fact that they function is a testament to your unconscious minds desire for self-preservation.
It is clear that none of you are quite normal, the question is why? That is of course just the first question you will all have about your (collective) past and those answers will slowly be revealed as we move through the adventures.
Sound good?
sounds fine.
Got it.
No problem.

Briarstone Asylum was built around the foundations of an abandoned fort, as evidenced by its thick stone walls. I could almost feel them embrace me as I entered the building, as if to welcome me home. In a way, Briarstone knew more about my mind than I did.
Taken from Gameplay, do we all as a party enter the asylum, or is this environment building?
All shall be revealed when I get home from the hospital tonight....
Sorry guys I will start us up tomorrow my ankle is sprained and not feeling great and I need to lay down and elevate the damn thing.
Hey no problem mate, rest up.
Finally up and running, sorry for the delay!
Holidays period and guess what? I'm going to be absent again this weekend, for some days. I'll be back Tuesday. I hope you all have a fantastic New Year's eve.
For the games I'm playing in: please feel free to bot me as needed, GM. I apologize for the inconvenience!
For the games I'm hosting: don't worry, I'll be back! Feel free to use the period to get your posts current.
I may be able to log in spottily during the weekend.
Cheers!

No worries, enjoy!
Updates tomorrow folks!
GM Warden, for our domain powers, they often say 'you can touch a creature to give creature ______ bonus'. Can we touch ourselves and receive the same bonuses?
hehe.
hehe.
LOL

Yes unless the ability specifically excludes you. Though I may even allow it then as i think its a ridiculous rule generally not to be able to do so.
Been sick for a bunch of days updates when I am feeling better.
sorry to hear you've been unwell... get better and see you when you do... your health is more important than pbp!
I will be away for a few days... will have internet access in the evenings but not sure how reliable it will be... just a forewarning that I might be unable to post... if that happens, feel free to bot me as needed.
Finally freaking better. Normal posting will resume again.
SO glad to get this back on track! Glad you're feeling better.
Glad you're better, sorry I was away from sometime but I am back and ready.
Long week at work including today. I will update either early in the morning or in the evening tomorrow. But tomorrow for sure. The long hours were good though as I am now caught up and can actually start to post regularly again. To say the least I did not realize how backed up I was at work till I returned to the office!
great to have you back! sorry work has you so busy, but that's a good thing eh? better than not having work at all! Take your time, real life always comes first.

Quite true!
Welcome back, I meant to write before hand. This group should be interesting considering our rolls.

Agreed, I was considering running this as more of a human and elf type game but when I got so many odd raced submissions I just embraced it and went as strange as possible.
Those who did not get selected here I am running a shattered star game for and they are a bit more normal in selections.
Grandl, Kaloora, & Thral GO!
Dr. D
Kaloora.
Where am I?

On the map opposite side of the table from the Dr. See link at top of the page.
Belrim, I think you go on the first instance of my name.

Oh yeah I get what you were asking now Belrim, sorry bout that! Kaloora is correct you are in the first group...
Fixed your name and it is now included in initiative Belrim.
Dice are HOT for Thral!
I was going to say the dice are cursed for this game. However it seems fortune is smiling upon me.
Your own loot but loot nonetheless!
You find 4 of each of the following:
Backpack
Bedroll
3xCaltrops
Scroll Case
10xChalk
10 Torches
Flint and Steel
Grappling Hook
Collapsible 12 foot metal pole (1 foot segments)
2x Waterskins
50 ft, Silk Rope
10 days, Rations
Potions (Blue Liquid) [Detects as Magical]
Dagger (Masterwork)
Belaying Pin
In addition, you each have 250 GP to buy equipment. Outfit yourselves and then we can move forward again.
Well... Believe it or not, I'm not proficient with any armors or shields, and can only use simple weapons (which, considering my spells, I'll rarely use anyway). So I'll just pocket the gold and walk around with the masterwork dagger... Unless there's no gold to pocket and we have to spend (which, in this case, I'll buy random stuff like a masterwork backpack or spider silk's rope... Lol).
By the way, Kaloora will Detect Magic on all the potions. Not sure if I should roll Spellcraft as well...

Sure roll spellcraft. Buy trinkets and pocket 50 :-)
I'll get a list of stuff soon. They mostly won't have much effect on anything, so please don't wait for me ;)
Long day of work. Okay so I will remove all my current gear, replace it with what you listed and buy some fancy new stuff. Sounds good.
Man I've been doing so much character creation recently, It's kinda crazy.
Just so I'm clear, we have 250gp to buy equipment later, not now?
Geared up (with the equipment we found) and ready!

Now, this is the equipment you forgot you had.
