Probably
What is Leila's CMD anyhow?
17 - you beat it on your 3ed try
edit: You can click on her name in the chatboard and it should take you to her backstory, if you scroll down there should be a set of spoilers. The one called Datasheet should contain all stats needed for combat : )
Addressing what Tobaris said in the IC thread (this seemed like a better place to discuss it):
Sorry that real life decided to act up. I hope it works out for you and everything gets all-right. But s#&+ happens, and real life is more important then anything else - so go out there and solve or fix or do what you can!
Now, on the other hand, this game seems to have enough potential and fun characters that I could live with a one or more couple of weeks break - so if you feel like you are up for the task when your life is back on tracks again I would love if you were to pick it up again.
A break doesn't bother me. Life does tend to have priority.
Par for the course.
I'm going to stop checking this thread during the hiatus. Please send me a private message when/if it resumes Tobaris.
I apologize for my absence I have been dealing with moving and attempting to find a new job so My availability is truly inconsistent. As soon as my schedule settles I will be able to jump back into regular paizo activity.
For the record my email is
tlhgeek@gmail.com if anyone needs to get ahold of me quickly.
Any questions can be directed there as well as I wont be able to get on here much until I have employment and stability.
To put it in simple terms I'm trying to solo a dungeon in life and I need as many nat 20s as I can get.
Okay ! Good luck! (and may the natural 20 be with you!)
For those still here and interested I am prepared to continue game sorry for the break.
here and interested
I am indeed interested ! RD said to pm him if you picked it up again - might be worth a shot : )
As a matter of fact - a PM to everyone whom played might be the best solution to get the group together. Most of the player are frequent posters on the forum and should notice within a sensible timeframe.
Glad to hear. I am game.
I will send out a PM then to those who haven't already responded here.
Any luck with the PMs?
Some I will be starting up again tomorrow however I will be skipping over some of the Trials I think we got to bogged down in them. Also I will be considering putting the boot to the players I feel are poisoning the game as that was a serious problem even before the hiatus.
That sounds harsh. Would one dare to ask what this poisoning is? Might be a misunderstanding - it usually pays to talk to people first. But your game - your rules...
Skipping or just letting some trials play out in cinematic mode would be sweet - its been a long (but fun!) day^^
I have no issue with pushing past the trials (however you choose) and get the main story moving. Also if you thing some players don't suit the part, it's your call. There is no lack of such types of players in the world.
I haven't decided yet if I need to boot said person they may not even return, however if they cause more problems I will bring it up then and there. I just wanted to let you guys know just in case.
Mkay
Beep Boop beep.
Shipboard assignments are not necessarily set in stone.
The GM layer out a loose description of what the various tasks would be based on. There's a lot of overlap based on people's stats, so I decided to assign positions based on the kinds of things each character might not get to do while on foot.
We can always change things around later if we want to.
I realized that I never checked into this thread so I wasn't seeing any update. Amazing. *facepalm*
The servers where rolled back so we lost a couple of posts : /
Take it away GM. I think I've done about as much exposition and stuff as I'm able. The rest is going to be you describing the ship and the launch of our maiden voyage.
Alright I'm just trying to sort out how exactly to do it but I think Iv'e got it.
The crystals we need. What are they called? Just so we are not sent to Jared when we need more industrial crystals.
Good question !
@Amalgus Will try and drag Amalgus along into the 'silly organic' stuff. But it would probably be good if he initiated some stuff too :P
Amalgus doesn't think you're silly. He finds you fascinating.
He's considering experimenting with personalities, giving his various drones mannerisms based off the crew. :)
I will be initiating things, unfortunately I don't speak the language (that I'm aware of).
I would teach you though I dont know how I know it outside of the supernatural.
I was more thinking if you want to initiate something with the others of the crew ^^
Try annoying Henrick, that always works for Leila : )
Regarding the language thing, that's why Leila is looking to procure some books! With her decent head for languages (decent linguistics skill) and Bazzle's innate ability to comprehend things they could probably decipher the language. Amalgus and Henrick both strikes me as smart fellows that probably could contribute a lot on that aswell :)
As the game progresses I'm gong to be spending a lot of Amalgus' gold on thematic "upgrades" to his systems, like permanent Tongues. Droids should all have a universal translation system.
Don't forget the gold plating and the phrase "I am fluent in over six million forms of communication."
I am detecting discrimination against R2 units.
I'll go fetch a trashcan and some blue paint if you hold Bazzle still long enough :P
Beeep
:)
I will post updates to game threads, later today. My internet is spotty because of storm damage.
Okay! I hope the storm didn't damage anything else valuable !
I am at a gaming con this weekend (until Sunday evening). My posting will be sporadic. Bot me as needed.
Hello crew!
I noticed a slowdown in the posting here - and I thought I should address it : ) I understand if IRL gets in the way of things, and since I have a few other pbps her to entertain me, it doesn't bother me overly much if this one goes a little bit slow.
However, I loathe to see this one die completely - there is just too much potential!
How does the situation look for the rest of you?
I'm still the same. I can play.
Glad to hear : )
I am still hanging on.
We are present. This dialogue seems to be mostly your deal though, being the charisma goon that you are.
GM, one of the hard parts about Sandbox games is getting started because of a lack of clear direction. Maybe you could help us set some goals, either in or out of character.
Nice =)
As for priorities - allow me to make a short list:
Main Quest - Get ship fully functional
Sub Quest 1 - Acquire Crystal
* Finish conversation with merchant
* Talk to the Asok
* Read book 'Crystal Farming and You'
Side Quest 1 - Visit ratfolk market on other side of planet
Does this seem correct or did I miss anything?
As for dialogue - since conversation with NPCs is probably going to be quite a large part of every PBP, I personally feel that it would make for an exceptionally boring game if only the one with Diplomacy gets to do it : ) Actual negotiations or perhaps establishing some trust is probably the realm of a diplomat, but I'm sure random questions or comments can come from everyone : )
I am screwed this weekend do to what will soon be a laptop without power. I will try to retrieve my power cable tomorrow, however I will most likely only be able to get it back on Monday. I my sound curt and short with this however this is due to my efforts to rein in my monumental frustration and anger.

Don't worry about it. The only thing that makes diplomacy with NPCs difficult is if the Diplomat has a poor posting rate. You're doing fine in that regard, so take as many posts as you need.
GM, good luck. Hope things get sorted out soon.
Okay : )
@Tobaris, no worries about us - as soon as we hear something from you now and then we will keep our hopes up ^^ Good luck chasing down your cable!
