Here's a discussion thread to get everyone started then. I'm hoping to get started officially within the next week or so, but it'll wait until everyone has a character they like.
Here I am.
Same here, I'll have my stats and stuff finished by the end of the week!
Hurrah! Everyone is here. Now I'll just be getting some things set up in the background later tonight and we'll soon be on our way!
Looking forward to this!
I dumped a ton of info into the campaign tab if you guys want to look up info on Korvosa or the surrounding areas. Also a rumor you've managed to hear around town.
Added another blog article to the campaign tab. We'll be up and running later today if I have anything to say about it (and I should but life sometimes takes away my voice). Character stats won't really be needed during these initial scenes, but are good just in case. And I'm a fairly open GM so if something isn't playing out the way you thought it would/wanted it to you won't be stuck with it we can discuss changes and things.
Sidenote: Jolon, I take it your highest stat will be Charisma? Will help for opening scene things.

Yes, that's correct.
We're live guys! Gameplay is open for business, hope I didn't intrude on your character's thoughts too much!
Is it too late for the card to be changed? My highest stat might not be CHA after all...

I've gotten Jolon mostly completed. I just have his equipment and his derrived stats to finish along with his background.
Turns out my top two abilities are a tie between CHA and CON. The Theater still kind of works, but The Survivor works too (especially considering his role in the party is basically to take everyone else's damage for them).
EDIT: Know what? Never mind, the Theater is PERFECT considering how little control over his life Jolon's had.
The book suggests choosing the card that is most representative of the class, and since Theater is for Charisma it should work. Also score one for the GM being able to guess Alignment!
So...will we get more of our chance to introduce ourselves fully? I don't mean to sound rude, but this seems a bit rushed...
Yep.
Yay! :D
The start of this particular AP is very...rushed. After the Harrowing more introductions will be had!
Despite Jolon's high Charisma, he may be awkward as he finds his confidence and comes into his own! XD
Hahaha! I thought it would lead to some amusing situations!
Not to mention he probably has some of the gentry who read his books. Those rich noblewomen have so little else to spend their time and money on, right?
Not going to lie, I'm quite thoroughly pleased I'm back in a group with you, rungok. Posts like those are the best! :)

I aim to please! (among other things) :)
Let's kick some @$$!
Sometimes picking the flavorful option bites you in the backside late in the campaign...sometimes it does so right away. *shrug*
I'll be able to heal Aloysia shortly.
I'm just glad I have such a reliable spell.
Hooray to both of you! I did have to cuckle at the potential of death as my characters very first real action...
As far as I can tell most folks go for a direct assault and don't really deal with the jigsaw shark, but hey its a great way to avoid being seen!
There we are! Good as new! :3
Wow...talk about Dungeon Bypass!
Heh, tactically unsound nothing. The shark only barely made you use your resources and Gaedren is the toughest fight in the fishery, you guys did good to bypass everything the way you did. Though the sounds of fighting in the fishery is sure to draw the attention of some of his cronies...
I just don't wanna spoil Cecil's tactics without his permission. My party members wishes are more important than my own need for drama! ;)
My only concern is that Cecil sees red when it comes to Gaedren. He's going to go for the kill unless someone stops him. I mean, he did tell everyone this in advance, after all.
Showdown time!
I figured Gamon was going to tank for us, so he gets the first life link.
♪ Ne-ver smile at a cro-co-dile, no you can't get friendly with a cro-co-dile, don't be ta-ken in by his wel-come grin, he's ima-gi-ning how well you'd fit within his skin! ♫
Cecil you got a shout-out in a different campaign I'm running.
Hahahaha! That made me laugh so hard! Awesome!
Not a crit, but still a pretty solid hit!
Don't want our loot to get eaten too!
Hey all, I just wanted to say that this week my posting has been a bit more limited (and likely will be next week too), but I'm not losing interest or disappearing. I'm in the middle of a HUGE deal with my clinic and it's eating a lot of my time. I promise to keep getting in at least one post a day right now even if it is sparse.
I know how that goes. Don't worry! Take your time. :)
Half-orc vs. half-orc! :D
Nuts!
congrats on your 1000th GM post, by the way! Having a great time!
In retrospect I'm rather glad you guys skipped most of the fishery. Cause other parts of the building have orphans in them and combat with the amount of those kids would be painful.
We can still help those orphans, right?
Most certainly, the orphans will be around the other areas of the fishery. Bit of backstory for the rusty manacles above Gobblegut's pool: Gaedren would have Giggles hook the kids who aren't stealing enough or pulling their weight enough by their ankles, then ask them impossible questions. Every time the child would get it wrong he'd drop them a few more inches to Gobblegut.
We've done a little karmic justice, then!
How much further can I move? Could I reach Yargin on this turn?
