I'm fine with the micromanaging aspect, but if you're not happy with it, GM, then there's no sense trying to make it work. Despite the fact that we're all playing and contributing, it *is* your game more than anyone's :P
I'm back. Sorry for disappearing suddenly. We went somewhere with no internet connection, and I didn't realize it until we were there.
That's a mild annoyance. Welcome back, I'm still here, and I'm sure the others are. Hope the new year is treating everyone well; I started it drunk and singing Africa at my dog.

No worries GM, hope everyone had a good new-year's eve and that 2018 is treating you well.
No worries, it's all good. I'm still recovering from the holidays myself. I hope everyone has an awesome new year!
I am fighting through what feels like the plague right now. I know we found some kind of drake or dragon in the woods a while back, anyone remember what it was?
Urgh, sorry to hear it. Valeriya wasn't with the party at that stage so I'm afraid she wouldn't know, (and I'm afraid I don't either).
Wyvern, page 36.
EDIT: It was just you and Graelem, Lali.
2nd EDIT: Are people around?
Ha. Maybe some dragon-hunting is in order?
I know I'm around! Just missed the update, but I'm here now.
And urgh, sorry to hear you've got the lurgy, Lali.
I'm always down for an old fashioned dragon hunt.
I'm also around, heats just been beating me up recently (it's 41 Celsius down here in Australia).
I'm around! Antibiotics are making me start to feel like a person again lol
Woohoo! Glad to hear it :D
Okay, the Kingmaker World Map is updated. I'll link it in Gameplay as well so we can get moving. Hopefully, Luthor is still around. If not, we may have to find a new body...
Honestly I'm having a difficult time thinking of how to plot out a course on the map. I suppose we should just head southward, perhaps ask around and see if we can get more precise directions?
That sounds good to me. Also, I just remembered that I was going to do a bit of retraining during downtime; would it be possible to shuffle a few things around before our first combat?
Has anyone been in touch with Luthor recently?
We were his only game. It's possible he's given up on PbP for a while.
Do we want to recruit a 4th? I feel like 3 would be too few, but I also don't want to deal with actual recruitment. If we do, any suggestions? The only other thing is we'd all have to pick up the pace a little, myself included.
Im wrestling with illness both mental and physical right now, but im still here. I wanna stick with the game, even if ive been terribly absent recently.
Good to see you again, Luthor.
I've plotted a course on the map. We're heading west first, then moving around counterclockwise. If at any time someone feels the need to diverge from the plan, just say where you want to go.
Good to see you Luthor!
Sorry for the lack of posting on my part, i've been dealing with a nasty sinus infection that's compounded by the stupid bronchitis I've had a few weeks ago. My brain is in a blender.
Good to see you, Luthor. Was starting to worry about you!
Any word on a small build shuffle?
Go for it. If anyone has anything they're unhappy with, I'll allow changes. Nothing too insane, like switching roles, and your flavor has to be more or less the same, but other than that, should be fine.
Anyone still exist?
To be honest, this game is the last thing that's really keeping me on the forums and interested in Pathfinder. If it's not something you guys are interested in, just say so. If it's something we want to continue, then we all (myself included) should put in a a few more posts per week, but I'm not gonna bot 75% of a party.
In the last week and a bit, I've dealt with a job offer, a huge fight in the family, a threat of being kicked out and left on my own, more than one personal crisis, starting a new job, and some stuff in my local PFS chapter that's really gotten me down.
That said, it's not an excuse, and I'm still interested. Just had a lot on my mind. I'll have some mechanical tweaking and a post done tonight.
I'm here and I definitely want to keep going. I've been sick for the past month, gone from bronchitis to sinus infection back to bronchitis and I'm not on a bunch of meds that are messing with my brain so I haven't been posting. I'll try to get on that more asap.
Sorry you're having a bunch of trouble Kaz, that sounds awful :(
I'm still interested, I try to post whenever I can, I'm happy to pick up the posting speed if everyone else is/
Lali: eh, it's just life, you know? At least I haven't been physically screwed, like it seems you have been... though this Australian summer heat is messing with my head and stomach something fierce :S
I would just like to say that I dislike the new site's formatting.
Agreed. I thought there was something wrong with my monitor at first.
I strongly disapprove of it. The bar at the top is too wide, everything else is too cramped, and the black somehow doesn't stand out as much as the blue did.
It's very flat, I mean, I'll take it if it's less buggy, but I certainly don't like the look of it.
Have they changed it again? The text in-thread seems larger than it did yesterday. Ugh.
EDIT: And, uh, who was keeping track of the maps? It's been a while ^^'
*pokes previous question* Sorry if it was missed due to my editing it in later; was just waiting on an answer before I posted ^^'
I'm not sure who had the map either, since it HAS been quite a while. We can roll with whoever wants it.
Give me a bit to go over the two maps, compare, and figure out what Jubilost needs, then we can negotiate.
I'm inclined to buy the map info, just to give us a better idea of what we're walking in to
That sounds good to me. Half-wishing we hadn't rushed the Stag Lord now, even though we had every reason to do so :P
Yeah, there's a trade-off for sure.
Out of character, so you can more easily make a decision, Narthropple knows about a hot springs, statue of Erastil, and an abandoned grave-site of a barbarian lord. He's also discovered a valley full of mud, an abandoned ferry station, an abandoned keep with strange flora and fauna near it, a ford across a river you haven't discovered yet, and a village populated by...well, he didn't get close enough to find out.
I think it's a good trade off, but the question is, how much money do we have? According to the last gear update I did I have all of 1 gold. That doesn't include whatever we made from selling gear from the last stag lord encounter. (It also reminded me that I wanted info on the stag lord's bow so I could have it maybe lol )
I have about 900 gold left over from character creation and Valeriya absolutely wants those maps, so she can cover it.
I'll put up a gameplay post saying as much tomorrow, just heading to bed now.
@Lali: I was trying to see if I'd ever said anything about that loot in Discussion or Gameplay. I guess I never did. It's been a crazy last several months, and I'm sorry. I'll go through the book tonight and figure out what you should have.
It sure has. No fault of yours, mate. I'm sure we'll get this rolling at a good pace soon :)
All gear you choose to sell, you can sell for 50% of listed price.
Potion of Cure Moderate Wounds (300 GP)
+1 Leather Armor (1160 GP)
Mwk Longsword (365 GP)
+1 Comp. Longbow (+2 Str) (2600 GP)
Amulet of Natural Armor +1 (2000 GP)
Stag’s Helm (3500 GP)
Silver Locket with silky, green hair (50 GP)
250 GP
Assorted azurite, carnelian, hematite, obsidian, and garnets (300 GP total)
Pewter belt buckle with two seductively-entwined succubi (???)
Silver charm bracelet (25 GP)
5 Assorted Leather Armor still in decent condition (10 GP each on average)
4 Short Swords (10 GP each)
5 Hand Axes (6 GP each)
7 Short Bows (30 GP each)
Additionally, some of the loot may have managed to escape in the confusion, but maaaay appear again later on.
See the Gameplay for further developments in negotiations shortly.
Is his bow +1? That's actually worse than the one I have, he short changed himself lol.
That helmet though...not really her style, but wearing it would be pretty darn practical. +1 Leather would be nice too, same AC as she has with the studded and takes away her armor check penalty. Everybody cool if I take those two?
500 gold for each place...that's a lot more than I realized lol. Assuming we sell the boring leather armor/shot swords etc plus the 250 GP gives us 475 gold, which goes to 775 with the gems, 800 flat if we sell off the bracelet.
Yeah, we might have to just pick one (or two, if Valierya's cool with it) locations and go from there.
I'm cool for Lali to take the helmet and armour!
Just checking in again to make my presence felt. Luckily it doesnt look like im "needed" in the game just yet.
Lots of staying at the hospital and eating a crapton of pills on my end, hope this will be over soon.
Ugh. I hope this whole saga is over for you soon, mate! I hope you're relatively well, and it's good to hear you're still kicking.
Any input from anyone else on which location we want, before I just pick one? We can be as democratic as we want out-of-character :P
Hope you're feeling better soon Luthor! Best of luck with the whole debacle.
I mean, those weird plants sound interesting. Or possibly that village of 'somethings' if that's up for grabs. Either sounds good to me.
Edit: And I'm fine with whatever location the party prefers. Valeriya considers her gold to be party resources.
Feel better Luthor! I've been there before, and I promise it gets better.
Assuming we're camping the night with them, someone want to take a stab at diplomacy for a discount? I certainly can't lol. The village has my vote, although we should have enough gold for two with our loot from the Stag Lord, although if we do sell the masterwork longsword + composite bow we'll have more. We can probably use the natural armor amulet for someone, so maybe hold on to that?
I like the village, we need to know our neighbors, I like the strange plants too. OOC I want everything really, but I know we can't afford that lol
