Not quite ready to get things going for real, but I thought we could do a little RP to start things out. Head over to the Gameplay tab, where you'll find yourselves in the place that all great adventures should start—a tavern.


Also, does anyone have a problem with using Roll20.net for maps?

Sorry I can't get to it while at work, which is when I post most often.
Since I'm a healer type though I'm OK with being botted from my moves.


I may just take screenshots and post those, then. Or perhaps both.

Works for me, thanks!

I'm good either way. Though I usually just use the google docs to show maps when I run things.

I just realized that my Investigator took no ranks in Perception!

Yeah, I'll be fixing that tonight.

Checking in for Discussion thread. I should be ok with either.


Sorry I wasn't present Friday! Correcting that right now :)

When the tale of our deeds is being told in a crowded tavern, Martina respectfully requests that you all leave out the part where she was felled by a Goblin Dog ;)

This is strange. I haven't been seeing any updates for this game so I haven't posted in awhile. But now that I look, you guys have been playing.mi wonder why my campaign tab isn't showing any updates.


That's very strange, indeed, though I've seen it happen before. I hope it corrects itself!

This happened to me once. I suspect it has to do with the cookies being used to track whether you've looked at the thread since the last post, and whether you happened to have a tab open on one computer, while accessing the site from another one.

I've had it happen to me before too. Good to have you back.


Is it just me, or is anyone else enjoying this emerging sub-plot of Martina being accidentally racist regarding Halflings? I'm really looking forward to "the Talk". :D

And gnomes, don't forget gnomes.


Aw man, I forgot that you were a Gnome, but this kind of works even better if Martina doesn't know the difference (or doesn't know that Gnomes exist - they're fairly rare in Taldor, right?)

Just remember, her heart is in the right place. She just wants to protect all of the little ones :P

Oh yes, its good fun!

Don't sweat the small stuff.

Gnomes, for example.

I figure a Cockatrice cavalier with the "bully" trait has to be kind of a jerk, even if it's unintentional on her part :)

Oh no not Barrakhan too! We'll have to have the "Talk" with him after we're done with Martina.

Ha, I think its only OOC Barrakhan :)

Yeah, I'm totally a jerk out of character. :-)

Heads up that I may not be able to post again until Monday or Tuesday so please GMPC or PCPC if needed to keep the action flowing. I have a very full day of business travel tomorrow followed by a Con where I have heavy GM duties on Fri-Sat-Sun. Monday will be catching up on work and hopefully most PbPs, but I should be fully caught up by Tuesday.

On one hand, I feel like I should update my portrait, since it clearly shows an Andoran Eagle Knight, and Martina is Taldan. On the other hand, the facial expression and body language is just perfect.

Dark Archive

Stick with it and we'll all pretend its just a snazzy blue and gold coat of one of the Taldan houses.

On one of her adventures, Martina briefly fought on the side of the Eagle Knights, wearing their coat in order to be easily identified in battle!

I can't help but feel that somehow, we're all witnessing the "meet cute" story of Martina and Jubal. :P

Had to look up "meet cute". Found this quote referenced and though it was appropriate.
"You're not really my type... And I'm more than a little disturbed to think I might be yours."

I'm just saying, this is how every Romantic Comedy starts. One person who doesn't know how obnoxious they're being, and a sane person trying desperately to ignore them. :)


Sorry everybody, just been super busy. I'll have a (substantial) continuation tonight!

No worries. We'll entertain ourselves getting lost in tv tropes and speculating about Martina and her obsession with the little people. I'm just glad it wasn't a naked first impression.

Hey, anyone seen our GM? The eggnog shoulda worn off by now.

I keep checking in here every day; haven't seen him.

Yeah haven't seen anything from him for a bit. Hopefully the game didn't get dropped.

Hmm, hadn't realized quite how long it had been. I'm also still here and checking. Lots of games shut it down from just before Christmas till this week though so hopefully we'll see him pop back in this week.

Well, that's par for the course. Every potentially long-term game I've ever joined on these boards has died before we finished the first level.

I -hope- that's not the case here, but I'm not holding my breath.

Soooooo..... The GM hasn't posted since December 23rd.
I'm thinking this is dead in the water. What do you guys want to do? We could try and recruit a new GM, call it and close the thread, or just keep waiting and hope Gaius Julius makes it back.

Gaius Julius,
If you happen to see this post feel free to let us know whats going on. Hope all is well.


I'm fine with us continuing with a new GM.

I'd be up for that too if we can find one.

Yeah it would be nice to at least finish this first adventure.

Blessings 2/3 AC: 18/14/14 | HP: 97/10 | F +4 R +3 W +4 (+2 vs fear) | Init +3 | Perception +2

Just curious, has anyone tried finding anyone to finish this up. If not, I can go put a post up and see if anyone can run it.
