Sorry, been a little busy lately. I'll attempt to get on and post later today.
I was trying to give Aeden a bit of time, I'll have a post up tonight.
Ok. In any case, if there's anything I can do to make the game more fun, just tell me :)
I've had a message from Beast, he's having health problems so he'll drop out. Since so little time has passed and they haven't acted, I'd go with a retcon saying only the three of you were sent.
Hey guys! How are our comrades-in-arms doing?
We've had two dropouts and some slowdowns, but I think we're getting back on track. How about you?
Pretty good after a few slow spots. We just murdered our first eldritch abomination with a fine mix of bullets, ghost-swords, and a very determined chokehold.
*sigh*
I've thought long and hard about this, and I absolutely hate to do it, but I'm going to have to drop out. I simply don't have enough time to dedicate to PbP games anymore.
This game has potential, and I love the idea of it. Liliya was a blast to create and brainstorm. Character concepts are one of my favorite things to do. I hope that you guys continue on, perhaps recruiting replacements or combine the two groups in some way.
I apologize for this, especially so early in the game. Good luck in all your future ventures.
Five little player chars going in for law,
One vanished without a trace and then there were four.
Four little player chars going out to sea;
One had issues with his health and then there were three.
Three little player chars walking in the Zoo;
One had precious little time and then there were two.
I'll bot Liliya and justify her disappearance, as well as the others'. Do you want to recruit more? Ask in the other thread?
Am I the only one left?
I'm still here, just a lousy few days, I'll have a post up in the morning.
Alright. I'm not sure what to do at this point, regarding the missing people. Recruitment may be the best option.
As far as in-game goes, I had planned on making a quick stop back at the barracks to let the others know what we're doing, but now there's only one other and she's not at the barracks. Suppose I should do that anyway just to leave a message.
Hellish week at school, I'll set up a re-recruitment on Monday, since weekends are slow. If you feel like it, you can still investigate/RP.
Similarly, I'm in the middle of finals as well.
Dropping by as requested.
Figured I'd stick with Shrike in order to speed the process along for now. I'll keep my French monster idea in reserve.
Yo
Agent Pierce Bronson reporting for duty
Update for Tomasz and Mina: since GM Panic was ending his game, I've chosen to merge the tables. You'll be a bit more numerous than I thought, but I believe things will work out this way. I'm swamped in school right now, I'll try to make a recap and an introduction in the close future.
Bleep-bloop. I'll stick with Sam since I still like her and she'd still be the only proper caster.
I'll keep Agent L unless there are problems. He's specialized in 2 areas: disguise and nonlethal dmg.

Cool! Welcome, new friends!
Hello! While everyone else is getting settled, you all should know that in addition to finals I've come down with a bout of pneumonia - the combination has run me pretty ragged. If we start rolling again this week, expect me to be a bit sporadic.
Ouch, pneumonia is bad, take care!
Ok how do we transition to this table?
My last post introduced you. Just get into the Gameplay thread and meet the others.
do we get loot/xp/payment for what we did in the previous table?
No, sorry, I'd like to have you all start at the same level and level up together. And generally, payment will be scarce. You will unlock better requisitions in later missions, but magic items beyond consumables will be extremely rare.
So any consumables ? XD
Just your basic requisitions.
It was mostly a joke anyway
"Deja vu" because I swear to god I posted a week ago and it went through but it's not there now, so I guess I'm just losing my damn mind. So sorry for holding things up, I didn't mean to fall out immediately.
It's all right.
However, y'all, remember that this is currently a sandbox investigation, and I know how sandboxes can easily get swamped, so please let's not drop the pace. If you want me to railroad you a bit more, just say the word.
I keep myself to a general rule of letting almost everyone post before I post again. I was hoping to let everyone weigh in on the reintroduction before we all go charging off.
Ok, so Sam and L (disguised) are going to investigate the red-headed soldier, the other four to the Cathedral. I'll update in the evening (about 10 hours for now).
Mina has charisma and while the accent might be off-putting she might be the best option for lying to the priest.
Initiative? surroundings?
I mostly want to know if I can cast Hold Person or if there's somebody around who would ask questions.
Shrike, L, Sam and Pierce, I forgot to add that you can take, for free, Native-level knowledge of one of the Languages of Magic:
-Irish Gaelic. It is used for some folkloristic rituals tied to spirits and fey.
-Sanskrit. As expected from a language tied to Hinduism, it is uniquely suited to transmutation rituals.
-Hebrew. Hebrew rituals deal with crafting (think the Golem) as well as illusions. Mina starts knowing it.
-Sumerian. A dead language to deal with dead things. Excellent for necromancy. Liliya starts knowing it.
-Latin. When you need to fight a demon, Latin is your choice. Tomasz starts knowing it.
These may help you if you find strange artifacts or old texts of magic.
If you have other ideas for these languages, feel free to suggest!
I'll pick up Gaelic
Hmm we should have someone with each of these
Hebrew or Galik would make most sense for the character but sanskrit would probably be the one that would be most useful for the group
Hmn
Sanskrit
While it doesn't really make much sense for a girl of Japanese descent to know Gaelic, the Fey bloodline is all about enchantment spells, and that's kinda what Mesmerists do.
I think the Cathedral Group is ready to leave for Ormeau
Yup!
I figured he's so prideful if we insult irish enough he might spill some beans and we could go from there.
I doubt that the phrase 'good cop bad cop' was used in 1942, but anachronism has always been a part of tabletop.
Paizo.com is currently having a lot of trouble loading for me, to the point where I can't access it for hours at a time. Doing my best to keep up, but feel free to bot me if it becomes a problem.

Having that problem a lot myself, it's definitely not just you.
Yeah, today was extremely unstable.
