GM Samy's Humble Bundle Game (Inactive)

Game Master Samy

I think I'm pretty much good to go. I appreciate all your help so far.

Samy, what a great idea! Newbies, I hope you enjoy your game. Samy is an awesome GM!

Hmm
(A subject of the great Samy in Mummy's Mask)

I also believe that I am good to go.

I think I am good to go.

I am just now finishing up my character. How do you make an alias like those have?

MCCL,

If you go to "My Account" at the top of the page you will see an option to "Create New Alias".

From there you can build the basic alias and in the description you can add all the text like we have started to do.

If you need to know how to do the spoiler feature you can see it at the bottom of the comment box where it says "How to format your text...show"

I have made a little post in the gameplay thread to get us started a little bit. You guys are just sitting in a chariot for now, waiting to get...somewhere. Feel free to do some roleplay while I do some checking of your sheets over the next few days. You can get to the gameplay thread by clicking on the gameplay tab at the top.

In the gameplay thread, please post as your character aliases. You can select to post as your alias right below the text box. (Just left of the Preview-Cancel-Submit Post buttons.)

This gives you a little opportunity to introduce your character to the others, describe them a little.

Hey guys not to be a butthead or anything, but this is a chariot and I believe Samy meant a carriage

Sorry, I don't mean to be rude, it was just bugging me.

You are so absolutely correct. A carriage is what I meant. Brain short circuit there.

Here's a unique feature to the Paizo forums: Between my post and my name you can see the "Female Human Commoner 1" -- that line takes its stuff from the gender, race and class fields of your alias, in that order. In most PbP games on these forums, people add stuff to that line so the most commonly used stuff will be easily accessible right there.

Go to your alias and the class entry. Put in the following format:

Paladin 1 | HP 14/14 | AC 14 | CMD 14 | F +2 R +2 W +2 | Init +2 | Per +2

Replace the numbers with whatever is correct for your character. Explanations for the entries:

HP: Hit Points
AC: Armor Class
CMD: Combat Maneuver Defense
F: Fortitude Save
R: Reflex Save
W: Will Save
Init: Initiative
Per: Perception Skill

This is very helpful when running the game.

If you don't want to have your alignment secret, it would also be helpful if you put your alignment at the beginning of your gender entry, as follows:

LG Male
NG Male
CG Male

The first two letters of each alignment component, whatever they are.

Thank you, I have been trying to figure that out all morning.

I am updating my alias now. Is there a specific format or template for the more complete text that you put in?

Adjusted my Character Alias as discussed.

MCCL, for the freeform text I require no specific format, but if you have a Myth-Weavers sheet (recommended) it would be cool if you'd have a link to it at the top of the freeform text box in the alias.

Got my character done, comments?

There's no two "m"s in my name, for one. ;)

Other things about Axlem:

* Your hit points have the 12 from Barbarian class, but not the +3 from your Constitution

* You're lacking the base attack bonus and base save bonuses from the Barbarian class, just having the ability score modifiers

* Great Fortitude gives a bonus to Fort saves

* I don't think you've applied the favored class bonus

Then I suggest the rest of my party check their sheets, since I copied it from someone else...

:)

Forgot my equipment, I knew I did not do something right.

Starting Gold: 3d6 ⇒ (3, 6, 1) = 10

100 gold:

Scale Mail (50gp)
Dwarven Waraxe (30gp)
Barbarian Kit (9gp)
Light Wooden Shield (3gp)
Dagger (2gp)
Cold-Weather Outfit (0gp)
Fishing Kit (5sp)
Bedroll (1sp)
5GP + 4SP

Only a minor thing I think. Michael Raaf, Tulle's alignment is not ok for a pally I don't think. Paladins must be Lawful Good. Like I say, not a big issue, I just noticed.

Excellent catch, I missed that one. A paladin must be Lawful Good. Thanks for the help, Ietsuna.

Boredom at work. I am putting together an alias to add to the big list of applicants for Rise of the Runelords and was thinking of a pally. Looked at Tulle to get an idea of what to shoot for.

I messed up on my alias profile. I'm not a paladin I'm a fighter. That was a bad copy and paste job. I'm fixing it now. Thanks for the catch.

I made a mistake on Adokul's HP. He should have 13 max HP, not 10. 8 from hit dice + 1 from stats + 1 from favoured class + 3 from toughness. I will modify the alias and if I am wrong I will switch it back. I found it while I was making another alias based on him.

Thumbs up.

Is everything ok? Seems to be not much happening for a few days?

I was wondering the same. I was worried that I did not get on yesterday...

It's just been a crazy few days. Apologies. I'm back and working on a post.

No problem, life happens. Just we cannot bot the GM... :)

I appear to have double posted my stealth roll. I will leave it up to Samy to resolve which roll is "The Roll". That is what I get for posting at 3am from my tablet I guess.

I've been down with a pretty bad cold for the past few days, and it's still not letting up. I'll resume as soon as I can manage sitting at the computer. In the meantime just hang loose bros.

Feel better. We would rather have a good game than one that gets goofy because the GM is on cough syrup with codeine...

And to everyone else, Happy Easter, if you celebrate it. And if you dont, well still have a happy easter...

Stay safe and healthy.

Still a bit under the weather but I expect to be posting inside the hour. Might still be slow over the coming days but should be more present than the past week.

Glad you are doing better...

Hey guys, I am going away this weekend. Just so you know I won't be able to post until Sunday.

Axlem, looks like the rage bit is covered pretty well here:

PRD Barbarian

For level 1 it looks like you could "turn-on" rage and get 7 rounds of rage. During those rounds you would have a +4 to your strength and constitution, +2 to any Will saves and -2 AC.

You can end rage whenever you wish, as a free action.

Whenever you end your rage you are fatigued for 2x the number of rounds you remained in rage. While fatigued, you cannot run or charge and you take -2 to strength and dexterity.

Hope that helps.

Thanks, that helps.

Anyone heard from Samy? I hope they are ok.

Working on a post now actually. :)

Sorry for my absence, my final master's thesis deadline hit me hard. Working on a post now.

Master's in what?

English language.

Yuck. I did mine in statistics.

Thanks Samy for running this. It was great fun.

I'm glad you liked, Ietsuna. It was short but I think you guys seemed to have grasped the basic mechanics fine! I think you're all good to go to apply to a real game now. :)

Thanks Samy, this was a good intro.

Yes Thanks Samy, I had alot of fun.
