GM RePete's Hall of the Flesh Eaters: GD VI (Inactive)

Game Master RePete

Welcome pathfinders! This is to be the site of PFS #6-06 Hall of the Flesh Eaters for PbP Gameday VI Session 1. I look forward to devouring your very souls!

In the meantime, feel free to secret squirrel your way into the gameplay tab, roll any dayjob checks you may have, and get to know each other. There is no need to put your PFS#, Faction, Prestige, XP, etc. in this page. I'm trying something new and must insist you fill out this handy questionnaire!

I also need you to go to the maps/handouts link at the top of the page and fill in your preferred marching order location, perception, and initiative modifiers. I do like headers. They don't have to be extravagant, but they must have your key statistics. (HP, AC, Saves, Perception, Sense Motive....) I do have a linked template in my profile if you need assistance setting one up.

We'll be starting August 25th, 2017. Any questions, don't hesitate to ask.

Ok, here I am, thanks for having me. Yelek here is a bit of a brute with a penchant for killing stuff with extreme prejudice. He's also good at intimidating things.
There's a problem though: at the moment Yelek is engaged in a PbP game. I think it should be over in a couple of weeks but I can't be 100% sure. Therefore I can't fill the questionnaire yet as I don't know how much XP, PP, Fame and gold he'll get out of this scenario.
Also I don't get how we are supposed to choose a dayjob roll. Do we roll here where everyone can see and then choose the option?

Thanks for your answers!

No worries Yelek.

I'm actually in the same game. Hopefully it'll finish in time.

As for Dayjob roll, yes. You'd roll it here and choose the option that matches the roll ' total after modifiers.

Hello all. John is a very friendly and diplomatic sorcerer who can also manipulate or intimidate with ease, whatever gets the job done without fighting is preferred. In combat he will merely try to get under the opponents skin so his allies can attack easier.

He has no day job at the moment and will fill out the form sometime prior to the start of the game.

Here's Quint's day job roll craft alchemy: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16

I'll play a totally different kind of paladin this time (one that can actually smite).

I need to make purchases, then his profile will be ready for posting.

Not sure which character I'll be bringing quite yet...

And, I might add... can actually use a wand of CLW. :D

Yes. Yes, he can. :)

Dotting in.

Noting that I'm burning a survey boon for a replay with a different character.

Otha's character checkin' in. Egg's a level 1 Zen Archer (Monk)...he can provide ranged support and has a couple of thief-like abilities (Stealth, Disable Device)...

Excellent. It looks like we have a solid variance of characters. I look forward to figuring out how we will mesh in game!

And we already have four of six on the marching order/initiative page. Our group rocks!

Questionnaire Complete!

Dayjob Roll - Craft(Weaponmaking): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20

Questionnaire submitted.

Suddenly a trap door slides open in the floor. A large clay abomination lumbers out of the door and looks to each of you in turn.

Click. Whirrr.

"Hello persons. I is Combot 41. My function is to help GM RePete if you disappear during the scenario. I will try to emulate you. I am not smart. I am not creative. It is wise to use me as little as possible." states a mechanical voice.

Slipping back through the open door, it slides close behind the creation.

Faint sounds of Zzzt. Click. can be heard from below.

~~Botting Policy~~

I will use Combot 41 under the following circumstances:
--> It's combat, and 24 hours have passed;
--> The group needs a skill check from you, and 24 hours have passed;
--> You tell me that you will be gone for a few days, and ask me to bot you.

If you have a 'bot me' spoiler describing your desires in your profile, I will use it.

We are still 20 days away from starting, just wanted to get this out of the way now. We still have 1 player that hasn't completed the questionnaire.

I look forward to getting started on gameday and as always feel free to voice any questions you may have.

Yelek, don't forget to fill out the questionnaire.

You all may start introducing yourselves in the gameplay thread, start date will still be Friday the 25th. Anyone that hasn't checked in by Saturday morning, will be assumed to have found better things to do.

Saturday morning, I'll start inviting waitlisters if I haven't heard from a player.

Filled the questionnaire I just need a dayjob roll...

Profession (Bounty Hunter): 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3

And here we go!

So no gold for poor Yelek this week... XD

That darn bounty was just too quick! :P

I have to bow out. Work has eaten all my available time and I haven't been able to contribute. My apologies.

Quint do you have Precise Shot?

I do not have precise shot, however, neither side was engaged in melee when I first took my shot if that matters ..(Yelek had choose to negotiate and unless I missed an attack by the primitive men : I only read that they picked up their clubs and moved closer , making me the first to attack)

Thanks for the letting us know Balgrym. Good luck.

If you shoot or throw a ranged weapon at a target engaged in melee with a friendly character, you take a –4 penalty on your attack roll. Two characters are engaged in melee if they are enemies of each other and either threatens the other.

Bolded the part that matters here. Sadly, since neither foe nor friend were flat footed and both had weapons out, they threatened each other. So the -4 would apply.

thanks GM I didn't know that..I can use that going forward in both games I run and play in...(Man this game as an extensive set of rules! LOL being playing it since the early 80's and it's always been one of the more rules heavy RPG's out there. Being older I consider Pathfinder the natural extension of D&D 3.5; although I hear 5th edition is great!)

Yeah, there are a ton of rules. I think the cool part though is that a new player can learn the basics in one session. Then if they enjoy it the smaller things get added as they get used.

I also enjoy reading back through sections and finding out 'new to me' rules on various parts of this game.

Good lord we are critting like crazy. I hope it doesn't balance out too much later!

I did not confirm. :(

Yeah, you guys are pumping out a chunk of damage.

Will get post up to push forward after bit. Work is a bit hectic today. Feel free to discuss things.

Something of note - (assuming you inspect the bodies) you find intricate carvings on their skin (especially the one that never moved)

K (History), K (Religion), or Linguistics rolls would be appropriate.

Pavo let me know if you use John's wand on me or not OK? otherwise I'll need to drink one of my potions thx..

I don't have a lot of free time to post this weekend but I'll keep an eye on the game and if something fits my skill set I'll get a post up.

Hi there people. I'm currently posting from my phone, because due to some unexplicable reasons firefox and chrome have stopped working on my PC. I'm working to fix this asap but I can't say how long well it take for the problem to be resolved. I suspect I'll have to format my whole PC, which well be a nightmare of recovering passwords in the aftermath. Anyway I Jussie wanted to give everyone the heads up. Hopefully I''ll be back soon! Bot me as needed please. Thanks for your understanding!

Thanks for the heads up Yelek. Any player wish to bot him? If not Combat is ready and willing.

:-P

I'm not comfortable bot'n another players PC especially one that has attained any sort of level. let the combat bot him

Quint...the dice don't seem to be your friend.

Well it's often discussed that Gunslinger is a weak class at 1st level and this is especially true with Quint who was only dipping in to gunslinger for his wizard build..While gunslinger is weak at 1st level..having a dex of only 14! makes him almost a liability (sorry guys trying to make up with it by some decent roll-play) All this being said..I haven't seen may double numbers come up on that D20!

I'm only trying to hit touch AC for goodness sake! But if I keep rolling 4s and 5s I'm literally going to be all bark and no bite! No matter how bad or good your build is if your rolling all single digits...it's going to make for frustrating combats...But, fortunate for me the others seem up to the task so far and I'm enjoying the scenario atmosphere ! Very spooky and gross.. good scenario thus far!

Quint already has a GM chronicle applied.. I think when I GM my next adventure in October I'll apply another GM chronicle to get Quint up to second level and see if he misses with that *f*ing gun when he's got true strike cast on himself! Anyway hope I not ruining anyone else fun by, having such a pathetic character...

Literally didn't even notice how bad Quint's aim was :)

Well... I think the serpent god of dices may have stolen all of your luck quint...

:P

I think it was because you were hit three times.

I am unavailable for the time being, family emergency. Bot if needed (demoralize everything, then shield and antagonize).

At this point, I feel confident you guys will survive this scenario. Need you all to roll a d20 for possible boons.

If you roll a 19 or 20, proceed to roll a d4 to see which boon you gain.

Luck?: 1d20 ⇒ 14

Boon: 1d20 ⇒ 20

Which one?: 1d4 ⇒ 4

boon: 1d20 ⇒ 5

Gm would you mind noting on my chronicle sheet under the 1st level rebuild rules that Quint is subtracting 1 skill point from intimidate and putting it in to perception instead? thx

Quinn, I can if you'd really like, but honestly there is no need to do so.

Under society rules prior to playing at level 2, you can change anything and everything about your character (even selling back gear for full price - excluding consumables) without GM approval.

-Posted with Wayfinder

Boon: 1d20 ⇒ 13

I suppose I should roll for boon...

Lucky Die?: 1d20 ⇒ 18

Grrr where's the guidance when I need it...

Yelek, don't forget to roll your chance. Egg, I'll need your e-mail address so the powers that be can send you the boon. If you'd like, you can PM it to me so it's not public.

Hsssss... Boonsssss: 1d20 ⇒ 20

Edit

Yesss

Boonssssss: 1d4 ⇒ 2

Typically, you would have to brief Benarry to finish obtaining your final prestige point, and you would get tallies based off specifics you shared.

However, the map John drew with the implements supplied by Quint, was good enough to cover two of the required fields.

Will have the chronicles up for you either today or tomorrow. This has been the fastest PbP game I've run so far.

The dice were our friends.

...not the undead's friends.

Thanks for running this GM, loved the pace and really enjoyed the scenario...also enjoyed playing with each of you...

Chornicles Here

Let me know if there are any issues. John, I didn't add the disease on yours as I'm thinking positive thoughts for your final save.
