Gameplay is open.

Here a dot, there a dot, everywhere a dot dot.

Illusory dot!

Dot.

Anyone know a fourth player? I've put out the info, with the caveat of no pregens. IF we don't get someone today, we can take someone with a pregen or GM NPC, your guy's call.

Let's give it a minute. We had several higher player people just finish up in my Fortress of the Nail; maybe Mifune is available? He was level 8.

I just heard back from a local guy who wants to play as well. If it's too late, I'm sure he'll understand.

Also, quick survey from the group:

I have 35k burning a hole in my haversack. What should I purchase?
Already have Belt of Dex (+4), Boots, Lens of Detection, and my choice in armour. Maybe further enchant bow? What quality? Or should it just be a standard +2 or +3? Opinions welcome.

No it's cool. Have him check in.

Can I still get in? Sorry lots a problem with laptop today. Getting it fixed so stuck on old tower for a bit.
I have a level 7 Elf archer/wizard or level 9 Wind Wizard.

If not it is cool. Thanks for asking.

Definitely Gnora, you can still get in. We were just getting the intro. up.

Yeeaaaahhhhh wizards. Take a look at my spellbook, it's gigantic. You can copy whatever you like from it after the adventure.

Thanks all. So still don't know which one you want.

Whichever one you want really. I don't have a preference.

Apparently my post from yesterday was lost in the resets, but I would say, play what you want Gnora. It doesn't change the tier. (7.9 vs 8.2 APL). Hopefully we can get started this evening/tomorrow and make up a little lost time.

That's fine Gnora. Just copy that information and put in you alias' profile, in the description box. Then check in to Gameplay.

Looks like we'll have one more coming over. Either way, is there anything else you guys want to do or ask? Otherwise, let's get this started do we can finish in a timely manner.

I need to finish preparing my spells, which I'll do this afternoon. Other than that I'm ready to move forward.

Hey, my game with EndlessForms ended before this picked up too far, it seems. If you guys haven't gone started too far in, I'm technically available again with a Haste Machine/Luck Beacon if you want. If not, best of luck!

I think we may be full. Another player asked to be in and I extended an invite. (Beat yours by by about two hours.) Still waiting in Gnora and the new player Ilmakis to check into gameplay though.

Rad; In case you get any dropouts, I'll keep Weiman free for this week unless EF poses something really interesting to play at his Lodge. Fire me a PM if anything changes, and if I don't respond to that in a timely manner, feel free to let Seb's player directly wake me up from today's no-work-nap-a-thon.

Quick note: With the addition of our ninjalchemist, the APL now looks like-

11 + 9 + 9 + 8 + 7 + 7 = 51/6=8.5=APL 9

For scenarios written in Seasons 0 to 3, when the APL is

in between subtiers, a party of six or seven characters must
play the higher subtier.

So it looks like we're playing Tier 10-11, with everyone getting Out of Tier rewards, other than Samhain, who will now get tier appropriate rewards.

Too late to switch out, eh? Sorry all!

-Posted with Wayfinder

That's fine. I don't have any characters at the high tier since Trotter and Glau both hit 12 last weekend. I'm fine with Mordo playing up. He might be dead by the end, but I'll take the risk.

Switch out?

Switch characters to a lower-tier one. But like I said, probably too late. Guess I know what I'm doing with my gold: reviving fallen party members, haha.

It's not too late, we haven't started an encounter. If anyone wants to change out....say so now or forever hold your peace!

I can morph into a Dervish Dancer 9. I just need to update his online profile when I get home from work tonight.

For the record I am totally comfortable playing up.

That's 2 okay with playing up. Might keep Samhain in after all.

I'd say your fine, but what do I know. My job is to make you not fine! ;)

Six in a season two, pfft!

I'm OK with playing up too...if it gets too scary I'll just turn invisible!

All right, well the other two are 9's, so we should be good. Let's carry on.

Am I the only one getting a strong Aladdin vibe from this room?

Are you saying you want to rub the lamp?

I just have this vision of it collapsing down on us if we touch anything but the lamp.

And yes, I wouldn't mind a few wishes, hahaha.

No worries about Buho being able to carry it. 49 lb carrying capacity before he hits medium load.

-Posted with Wayfinder

Kyofuu is small and has 12 force, he could do it without problem :)

We may be jumpy...but alive. ;)

Buho is also just an animal companion. Now I don't know the cost for replacing an eidolon or a familiar, but I think animal companion may be the least painful to replace. Besides, at this point I practically auto-pass the training of tricks on the replacement companion. So if everyone is ready to continue, I'll go ahead and send Buho in?

Yes.

Please let me know if I expended any spells getting across the magma so I can mark them off.

Sorry if it feels like I'm pushing, but we are shooting to have Samhain done by the 13th of Feb. and Gregor would really appreciate it if we could wrap this up by next Fri., which will be tough, but not impossible if we can get in a few days of good posting.

Yep, no problem pushing. Sorry, Mordo just doesn't have much to contribute in social situations as he usually just slinks into the shadows and I was waiting for others to finish with the nagas.

I'm just waiting for combat to erupt with this thing. I suggest grabbing the rugs and running.

....erm... ice spells, anyone? =\

That's a mean DR. Hopefully if I Gravity Bow and Deadly Aim, I should be able to break through with clustered shots... IF I can land a hit.

Clustered Shots for the win!

Yeah, Mordo doesn't really do much damage. I have phantasmal killer and a couple other disable-y spells but I mostly try to distract the bad guys. And when I get enough money (soon) Riddywipple will entertain everyone with his Rod of Wonder. If this thing had weapons I could also use my shadow falconer's glove to disable.

My ninja can't do much against these creatures :'(

Most of my spells are fire based so we may be a bit mismatched.
