1. GM Edwin's Zeitgeist Campaign

Game Master Insnare

Porter hasn't posted anywhere on the boards since May 20th... I think it may make sense for us to recruit a fifth player... Do you agree?

Agreed DM

Yes, but it might be better to run with four for the time being?

Sounds good

we probably need to have some OOC discussion about what we are going to do about the ship and its cargo, otherwise i think we are going to get crippled with indecision which will bog the game down unnecessarily.

I guess I can relay what the characters know... Lorcan Kell, who knows where the Doctor is, wants you to sink the ship. If you sink the ship he will get you the doc. You could still confiscate the wands and other stuff if you want. The fey pepper will be kept by the RHC and not returned because it is an illegal controlled substance. The wands may eventually be repatriated back to the Clergy in Chryssilir.

For the next day, you are definitely going to have a meet with Gale the terrorists which was set up by the Skyseer. I know we have had some serious combats recently but we are making progress.

Confiscate everything then sink it?

Confiscate everything then sink it?

sounds right.

---would be my vote

Works for me, but what of the platinum?

keep the cash ? :)

( i agree with everything else)

turn it in or dont, whatever the rules are

Agree :D

turn it in or dont, whatever the rules are

What is the rule?

You guys are constables of the RHC. If you follow the rules you will bring everything back and hand it over to the RHC for processing. But of course if you do that you won't get the whereabouts of the Doctor.

Ah he wanted everything sunk WITH the ship?

Are you going to kill everyone?

I suggest we keep everything (sailors included) to be given to the RHC, but we sink the ship.

Still on the fence about declaring the platinum...

Agreed.

Fyi Johnathan will disagree strongly about pocketing the platinum (but that could be interesting roleplay).

Chretien will half-heartedly disagree about not turning in the platinum. it IS a lot of money, but the rules are the rules. plus they are likely quite knowledgable about what was on the ship, ESPECIALLY if we don't kill all the prisoners, which we wont.

The consensus is to sink the ship, hand in the prisoners, and most of the treasure.. the platinum is up for debate.

the DM's statement is exactly what Angus proposed ..

Where did everyone go? I have a guy who should be finished soon with a new character for the game.

I am here, but Cretien isnt even close to the leader of this party, thatd be angus and/or falko, as far as he is concerned.

Me ? sure i'll but i didn't uncover luch about the doctor during the inital investigation

I would like you all to welcome Sarya to the game she will be joining us shortly.

Welcome Sarya!

indeed welcome :)

I am withdrawing, apologies!

Well in a quick turnaround, I think I'll stay afterall. This is a tough campaign to follow but will continue to try my best. And thanks DW (Falko)

good to have you back/

Posting this to all My Games:

I will be traveling this weekend to my vacation destination. There will be no post from me until Monday.

Please Bot me as needed.

From Sept 29 th to October 4th Expect little posting

From October 5th to October 15th Expect Next to no posting

(dunno the internet availability so i am assuming the worst case)

Thank you for your patience

I'll be travelling from Wednesday to Monday, so posting will probably be quite unimpressive. Please bot me as needed.

Well i am back form my vacations and slowly catching up to things both here and IRL :)

Ah, so if i understand things correctly:

1. Danor and Ber are in opposite directions of each other from Risur, so the doctor going to Ber by way of Danor wouldn't even make sense.
2. There is very little Lebrix can do to effect our delivery of the doctor to Ber.

which makes me wonder why we considered bringing him here in the first place? Or did i just fire off in the wrong direction and we were here to see Lebrix for other reasons?

and also, we need to figure out what's up with those journals.

According to the module he needs an exit stamp to move onto ber because the danoran consulate needs to vouch for him. Meeting lebrix Gives you the opportunity to ask about the documents because his name is all over them.

Ah, so basically Lebrix can get the stamp, which says that Danor says he is cool to go to Ber? As Ber falls under Danor diplomatically? or just kinda co-opts their consulate?

are we asking Lebrix about the documents or the doctor?

I think the documents. I'm not sure he knows the doc.

Basically yes, Danor vouches for Arrovia saying 1) this country is for real. 2) this guy The Doctor is cool to go to Ber.

The berians have already said its cool for him to come with Danoran permission... yes it is very archaic... it's like it was in 1850 or something in what is now Germany.

Be back saturday, going on vacation.

npc as needed.

And back. Will do some catching up

Maybe I missed the explanation, or forgot, but why is Sarya with our group of RHC? And speaking and bargaining for us? I don't remember Delft explaining her presence/authority. If I missed it, can someone copy-paste?

I'm guessing it's something about Risur's diplomacy with the dream merchants, two groups working together or something?

Sarya works for the RHC but also the Dream Merchants kind of like Chretien works for the university and the RHC.

In this case she is kind of like a liasion between the two groups. Normally, I have new characters introduced through the Chief but due to meeting with Kell and then the Church scene it made a little more sense to have her follow you guys to the church and meet you there.

The misunderstanding is wholly my fault and I wish to apologize to all of the players about this.

I do really enjoy this campaign and I hope you all are as well.

enjoying things, myself.

only thing i regret is having found a class that better suits what i had planned Cretien to be like, but i hadn't even heard of Thunderscape when this game was made.

send it to me, maybe upon level up you can choose that class and multiclass.

I've actually seen the Steamwright in action GM, the similarities are such that I would recommend (if you find the class to your liking) allowing Cretien to swap class levels wholesale. On the whole the Steamwright is just better executed then the Machinesmith.

I was traveling since yestderday and unfortunalty will not be able to post until monday.

Falko and Sarya, I don't seem to have the names of your personal contacts in the city and in which section they live.

Could you give me their names and what they do... thanks.

Hi GM, no problem, I'll work on that. Any guidelines on numbers and types?

Just need two for now and where in the city they are from
