Silly gnoll, you're always fine ;)

^w^

I am sticking around. The pace is a bit slow but I am still enjoying the game.

I share the same sentiment as Kreagor.

Very good then, we shall continue to slaughter the orcs!

I'm still here

Hey I probably won't be around much until tuesday of next week. Its a long weekend here and I am going to the cabin.

Sorry for being a mess, I still haven't leveled Sarada up from 1st so I have to keep jumping to d20 to figure out what all the f~!@ I can even do.

Level 2: 1d12 ⇒ 6
Level 3: 1d12 ⇒ 10

No worries at all. We've been creeping in this one for a little while and it drug a bit. I'm trying to restore some sense of regularity to our postings now though!

PS - Fix your quick stats bar while you are fixing things ;)

I will when I get a chance to fix things again.

We just made it to part 3 of the first book. I want to thank each of you for sticking it out, particularly through the god awful slow times we had. I've been trying harder to make an effort to regularly get in here and keep the game moving along. I think the pace has improved considerably and we're making great progress now.

I agree.

Also, did Kreagor manage to determine anything about the giants tribe or type? I was only looking at its gear for markings and the like to identify its culture if they have one. Kreagor is mainly just being inquisitive about them (and acting on the Student of Giant kind trait).

Also, Garri walked off with all our cure light wound wands. Could we say that he at least left the cure light wounds wand with 24 charges for us, otherwise were a bit screwed for healing.

EDIT: Especially after taking 48 damage collectively.

I think it's safe to say that the cure light wounds wand would have stayed with you - not a problem at all. Go ahead and roll out the charges to get yourselves healed the following day, I completely overlooked the fact you were wounded still before moving you on.

I'll get you some information on the giant in the gameplay thread.

healing hex on each of us, already rolled Kraegor's
Lialda: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
Sarada: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11
Renliat: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

How much did you need Kraegor? Tell me how many of the rolls are used, you already had 5 back from the hex.
cure light: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
cure light: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8
cure light: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

No worries GM, as long as there's clear communication I don't mind some slow parts here and there.

I only need two of the rolls. Was at 5 +5 from the hex, +3 +8 = 21. Thanks

My apologies, everyone, for leaving. I was in a really bad place of exhaustion where I could not think clearly. I had helped care for an elderly relative who died of cancer in February, and then had to catch up on all my children's schooling that we should have been doing in that situation. I'm just now returning to normal functioning, and I missed you guys (and I missed Garri; he's a lot of fun.)

Thank you for the permission to return, GM Shadowlord.

edit: posting in gameplay did not seem to move this back into my active campaigns. You may need to toggle the box in edit campaign for Garri for me to get notifications, GM.

Sorry to hear about all of that Garri, but I'm glad to see you back ^w^

*hugs*

Welcome back. Now kindly start killing things please.

No problem, glad to have you back! I don't think you could have picked a better time to run in and be a hero ;)

I've added you back into the Active column, you should be all set now!

It's still not showing up in my campaigns. Perhaps you have to move the player over to active as well as the character?

Everything looks fixed now. Now I'm just waiting for my turn to unleash a burning hands at the swarm.

Rules question before I post Garri's attacks:

grappled says -2 to attack roll.

it also says -4 to dexterity. Garri is using weapon finesse and dervish dance. Does the -2 to the attack from dexterity loss stack with the -2 above to leave Garri at -4 to attack and -2 to damage?

Unfortunately yes.

I think Paizo hates me. I got my Starfinder shipment notification just as it was time to clean the bathrooms, one of my not-favorite chores.

So I compromised. I downloaded and unzipped and things before cleaning, so that I could reward myself as soon as I was done.

Treat yo-self

Bump Lialda

Just a heads up, from August 16th to 23rd I will be in the process of getting married and honey mooning so I may not be available during that time. Feel free to bot me as needed.

Congrats!!!!

I'm away this week for GenCon, so I'm afraid I'm not going to be checking in very much either.

Congratz Kreagor!

I've returned from GenCon, thanks for your patience! I got sick the last day and have been recovering. Overall the convention was awesome and I can't wait to go again!

A sad little goblin looks around. Where are Garri's friends? Don't Garri's friends want to play with Garri anymore? Poor Garri."

Chuckling to himself at Garri's antics, "I am here still, merely waiting for the others to show up before we start anything."

*nods*

*pats Garri*

I am recruiting for an Ironfang Invasion game if anyone is interested.
Recruitment Link

I'm already in one but thankies for the head's up :3

I'm already running two tables of that AP. Thanks, though.

I am going to go read through those now. Thanks for mentioning it.

Just a suggestion, Kreagor; I let my tables choose whether they wanted to include the militia system/refugee community building part. One table chose to try it, the other didn't. The table that tried it ground to a halt; I don't think the system is a good fit for play by post games. I just pulled out a few bits to tell the story, and think that worked much better.

Life got a little crazy upon return, normalizing once more. I'll get a post up shortly.

I wan't going to use the militia system, but thanks for the heads up!

Garri offers his friends a jar of pickled vegetables.

Well its not bugs...

Kreagor takes a pickle and tastes it.

"Thank you Garri, its quite good."

Garri happily munches on both pickled vegetables and pickled bugs while he waits for his friends.

It's taken us a year and a half and we had some rough periods, but we have nearly completed this baby! It's not over yet, but we are very, very close to the end of the first book of Giantslayer (Battle of Bloodmarch Hill). Adventure Path's can be a bit of a slog on the forums to get through and one doesn't ever expect them to take so long to get through, but yet here we are making it through all of book one.

So first a round of applause to everyone for sticking it out and making it through, thanks for your commitment!

Second, I want to know how you you would like to proceed. There may be some people who want to drop out or no longer have interest in the game and that's perfectly fine with me, like I said I know it can be a slog. No hard feelings if you want out, but I want to get everyone's thoughts on what's next. If the game is not really calling to you like it did a year and a half ago and you'd rather drop and not continue there will be no hard feelings. I've had to drop games before, it happens. If you want to continue because I'm super cool didn't kill you, hey, we can go with that too! :)

Lastly, I'm also going to report this game to Paizo for PFS credit. If you're interested in getting a PFS chronicle sheet for credit then please send me your PFS# and Character number you want it applied to.

Definitely in this for the long haul.

I'm still here yes.

I am here to finish this.

I'm sticking around. I'd be interested in PFS credit; what character levels can the first chronicle apply to?
