Gm Wu's "The war within" (Inactive)

Game Master doctor_wu

Something I just noticed in the rules Jondar's rebuke death doesn't work if your knocked unconcious by nonlethal damage but not yet in negatives.

Is everyone waiting for someone else to do something?

WOrk's been a bear.

Ditto

I don't seem to have Nesteruk's formula book accessible for some reason but it must contain the spells for tommorow.

Sorry its on my Herolab. Same formula prep as yesterday, Enlarge Person and Shield. My only other level 1 spells are Cure Light Wounds and Shield.

Any Suggestions on my two 1st level spells to prepare

Enlarge person is good for one of the umpteen billion smack beasts we have. BEyond that I really dont know anything about ice witches so I can't really say.

CLW might be handy if Jondar goes down.

Back on Jan 31 Symas said he was interested in a new PC, but we haven't gotten him into the game. If we went back to town that would be an easy way to pick up his new PC.

Symas are you still in?

I have pmed him some about a new character.

I am. I created this new character.

I want to know who is on what watch and when.

may have trouble posting for a couple days. Work melt down.

Chardak Hope everything gets better and that you don't work in a nuclear reactor.
I may not be able to post much the 24th through the 31st though but maybe one day in there I will have time it is my spring break. I also need what spells Anna Prepares.

I think if I need to know when to npc someone and then post you can change your actions if I haven't yet had an enemies initiative yet. Although therealthom has a ton of work now so I don't expect him.

I pretty much check in daily, but i'm waiting for other people's actions.

Most PbP's i'm involved with use a 24 hour rule, with weekeneds being the exception. 24 hours since someone's action is required, the DM takes it and moves on.

holy heavens you guys are moving fast. I fully endorse GM_wu DMPCing Chardak while work sucks.

I'm afraid thats not how stabilise works. Even once your 'stabilised' your still in negative HP, it just means you won't bleed out once you collapse after casting it.

Just to be clear. Its not going to let you continue to act on negative HP.

Right you are. I won't be able to contribute a string of standard actions. That will teach me to skim the PRD.

I still stand by the stabilize. Jondar and Anna don't have to worry about Chardak and can act freely in the near term. I'll be able to take a move action each round. I'll have the option to contribute a standard action if it warrants going further negative and "unstable".

You still collapse after casting stabilize. Since stablize says -1 or fewer hit points it works with orc ferocity in that you don't lose hit points after that but you still fall unconcious but are stable until you take damage agian. No actoins at all since you will be unconcious. Stabilize helps with the bleeding part not the falling unconcious part.

My bad. For some reason I was confusing stable with the disabled condition. All clear now.

what spell did Chardak end up casting in the end?

We can roll with the bless and not retcon any posts. That's most expeditious.

As an aside I would have wanted to go with stabilize and let both Jondar and Anna take offensive action. Although I really do appreciate the healing Jondar.

Well struck Tark!

LYle just noticed in your character sheet there is an error your light crossbow attack bonus is too low looks like you forgot the size bonus to attack rolls. It also applies to ranged touch attacks like acid splash.

Yeah, I did. Thanks for noticing that and the arcane +1 on my spells during game.

You're welcome.

Its my gf's birthday today and I expect the celebrations will continue until tomorrow. Don't be alarmed if I am a little scarce for a couple of days. Bot me as necessary.

Thing is that is months from my birthday. Odd coincedence.

Random question I have been wanting to know for a while. What ethinicities are Anna's parents? Also Where does the last name Millner come from Jondar? I want to know hopefully it isn't a type of beer.

I was raised mostly by a Yuki-onna, as Northern raiders were a cause for me becoming an orphan.

If I had to guess; I'd say both were half-elves with Ulfen blood.

Can you tell I've only really ever played non-magic classes? Hah. Thanks for catching my mistakes. I've only played Wizards, and sparsely. Thought I'd try something new, and I'm not doing a very good job.

I used to make only melee characters or the odd sorcerer.
After some time playing and trying other classes, I got used to the other classes.
It became easier to play them, and I can now play any of the 4 roles (Assault, Skilled, Arcane, and Divine)

Very nice. I'll take this opportunity to do the same.

I used to play a lot of archer characters. I think the only sorcerors I used where npcs. And I play a lot of rangers. I also in another pbp have a level 2 cleric.

PbP is a good place to try new classes because you have plenty of time to look up rules. It also helps if you have a sharp GM like Wu checking you.

Chardak is my first inquistor, my first non-PHB PC. I've made some mistakes. Completely forgot about the judgement in that first orc fight and we could have used every edge we could get in that one.

I've played a little of everything in the PHB although never to high levels. Never a druid. Someday, just to see what it's like I'll try a druid. I have a soft spot for rogues. I like skills.

Agreed. PbP has a lot of advantages that I really like. That is definitely a good one. Nice to get it all straight.

I just made up the name didn't think about where it came from but could say that Jondar's great grandfather was a miller and changed his name to Millner.

So after a long process of looking at my games I've decided to drop a couple. Ssadly this one did not make that cut. The reasoning behind this has nothing to do with the slowness of the game or any conflicting playstyles with GM's or Players.

Rather it has more to do with a selfish desire to promote the setting I've been investing time into by running a game on these forums. If you don't already know I do a lot of free lance writing. One of these companies recently released it's campaign setting which has been doing relatively well as 3pp goes. Now with the release of this little piece of work I've been hired on to have a bigger role in the molding and fleshing out of the setting to the point where I'm in the midst of creating an outline for a module I wish to write.

However I need to get more familiar with the setting. So on top of reading nearly a dozen books I realized I can never really understand how it comes together without actually running a game in it. So sadly I've been forced to cut somethings out (about three games total including the Living Pathfinder games I've been participating in. I do apologize I know I've not been present as is so I sincerely hope this does not inconvenience you. Thank you for taking the time for tolerating my shenanigans.

Just imagine Karthan riding back off into the fog. He'd make a handy npc from time to time.

Tark, sorry to see you go. Seeing your alias in the recruitment thread was one of the reasons I applied for a spot in the game.

Didn't know that you freelanced, but it makes perfect sense considering the quality and depth of reasoning of your posts.

Best of luck with your expanded role and new module.

I am sorry to see Tark go as well You were a great player.

On another note should I recruit a new player to bring the party back up to 6?

Probably best to just keep us at 5 if its convenient for you.

Good luck, Tark. See you on the boards.

Loot! Loot! Loot!

2. silver key on the half orc (Nesteruk)
3. a bottle contianing a white milky liquid (Nesteruk)

5. normal quality breastplate. (Nesteruk)

6. well made shackles (Nesteruk)
7. 6 reaming falchions from the fight yesterday (Nesteruk)

9. three suits of studed leather armor (Nesteruk)
10. 30 silver peices .(Nesteruk)

Symas' gear held by Chardak

1. short bow and arrows (taken by Chardak and he's keeping them)
2. Short sword (1d6, 19–20/×2, P, 10 gp, 2 lbs)
3. Dagger (1d4, 19–20/×2, 10 ft, P or S, 2 gp, 1 lb)
4. Backpack (2 gp, 2 lbs) with , bedroll (1 sp, 5 lbs), waterskin (1 gp, 4 lbs), torches x5 (5 cp, 5 lbs), piece of chalk x5 (5 cp), flint and steel (1 gp), thieves' tools (30 gp, 1 lb),

Nesteruk might be getting a little weighed down. We should decide what we're keeping and redistribute the gear. The NPC woman could carry some stuff and we should put her in some armour for her own protection.

Yeaaaah... For clarity, i've not claimed any of that except the greataxe! Can we get a value on everything non-magical and then try and identify anything magical- and then we can work out everyone's share!

Rember you have not looted anything from the half orc encounter

Can we assume we go back and do so while seeing Karthan off?

I'd like to take the Dagger, if I may.

I know. I wrote it that way because you'd been listed as finder and we had figured out who was carrying what. Made for a funny picture of Nesteruk lurching around trying to hold all that stuff.

I'd like to take the Dagger, if I may.

Fine by me. If you can use it, it's yours as far as I'm concerned. Also, I've got Chardak snatching that bow. That's just him. I'm always open to discussions about the loot split. So if he appropriates something you think he shouldn't, speak up and no hard feelings.

Mr. DM, sir. Did the key go with the shackles?

Yes the key went with the shackles.

Chardak is proficient with the breastplate if he wants it.

Although Lyle Symas' dagger is medium sized.
