We are done with recruitment. Generic discussion for all can be done here. The master gameplay thread will be reserved for when the characters meet each other.
Maps should be shared for all. I fixed Lanarial's, it wasn't for some reason.
Comments and critiques go here. Hopefully we have some fun. This will be different.

So far so good. :)
My dice rolls are so so bad!!
Are we not doing initiative?
When it matters I will.
With the old waiting for you to close, you are somewhat forced to give him a readied action. Attacking him wasn't going to surprise him.

The dicebot is a fickle beast. Mine have been playing high-low.
Are we not doing initiative?
It's a 1 on 1 fight and he's going to wait for you to attack. No initiative needed, if he has a higher Init, he delays. Then you alternate.
My best roll so far has been a 9, think i may be off out! Ah well such is luck.
Well, you have to make a convincing case.
Think richard Gere in officer and a gentleman
Monday will start the next trail.
OK, trying to get to a format for a header at the top or your character sheets or to put at the top of your posts.
I like hp=x/y (they will change over combat)
In hands = earthbreaker (or longsword and heavy metal shield)
Active effects = smite vs orc2, rage, etc.
We will see how things go.
It's been very quiet recently. Hope everything is ok.
Not everyone has selected their readied weapon -- the plan is to note what is in your hands as your progress.
I will continue with some more background.
After my post on Tuesday was not responded to by all, I have slowed the pace of this down. I assumed it was dying like many campaigns. Less than 20% of PbPs really get going.
Was going to update again, but not everyone has selected weapon and amulets.
Update - Now you need the track the following stats somewhere
Attacks made that hit/Attacks Made
Enemy attacks that hit/Enemy Attacks Made
Total Damage Dealt
Total Damage Taken
Total Combat Maneuvres Made
These stats will determine your favor!!
Finally I hit something!! Now i will probably die, but I hit something!!

You are not alone.
It is interesting to see how the dicebot is making this very different for us all.
I hope no one minds that I am reading the other threads.
I know, I also hope nobody minds, as I have been doing the same.
Never fought four enemies at the same time before.
Home game had some 22ACs. One with the breastplate.
That made the +0 goblin skeletons a lot easier. You are still in the testing phase.
So we are guenia pigs. Hmmm.
It was already tested, hence four goblins instead of three. You are just in the area where death is not final.
A dwarf fighter with a 13 dexterity and shield focus put on the plate and was at 23 AC with his large shield. An elven barbarian with breastplate, dodge, a 16 dexterity and fighting defensively took a 21 AC to 23 with a -4 to hit when he felt threatened.
Given they were two of the original six guineau pigs, they set the bar high.
The goblins are rolling like crazy in all but one thread.
Damn
OK, I corrected a mistake. Typically claws do B and S damage and bites to B, S and P damage, which I had forgotten. Feel free to point out any mistakes, it definitely affected a combat by putting down a foe that would have done damage.
My philosophy is RAW pathfinder is pretty good. I will follow it as much as possible, especially when it gives players an advantage.
After this combat you are, on average, about half way to level 2. Your XPs are being tracked separately, and you can level at different times.
Your potions come with the following item.
Adventurer's sash
Source Seekers of Secrets pg. 42 (Amazon)
Price 20 gp; Weight 3 lbs. (container)
Category Adventuring Gear
Description
This bandoleer holds six pouches along its length and a satchel at the hip. Each pouch has a stiff leather flap that can be secured against jostling with a clasp (requiring a move action to open or close) or left unfastened for easier access. The pouches and satchel each contain a number of loops and ties for further securing equipment. The sash buckles at the shoulder, and can be freed with a sharp tug in an emergency as a move action.
I didn't know this discussion thread was up until just now! Sorry to have missed all of the comments...
GM, did you know you could link a single discussion thread to multiple campaigns? Then we wouldn't have missed this one...just something I've seen in my other games! =)
As the 'mother' thread this thread has the links to the individual threads at the top of the page. Note: to get updates you have to post at least once, so the discussion wouldn't update until you got your first post in.
We got some major posts in to catch up some of the skeleton combats, as some took over twenty goblin attacks before putting them down.
BTW, I'm going to get this out there now. My posting rate is going to suffer this coming week. The kids daycare will be closed for Thanksgiving here from Wednesday through the weekend. And we'll be having family in town until next Monday. I'll try to keep up as much as I can, but I can't guarantee anything.
We will just do a single update then until Monday next.
We start celebrating Wednesday.
Happy Thanksgiving, Maedhros to act, but no hurry. I will update Monday at the latest.
Hope you are enjoying it so far.
Keeping track of info on profile for the Heroes.
Is the bug bear I was fighting dead?
Is the bug bear I was fighting dead?
From a few days ago:
Oranna takes a brutal hit, and retaliates before collapsing. Her hit puts the bugbear down and bleeding at her feet.
It still is on the map.
We all should be able to edit it. I took care of it for you.
Why thank you.
Friday this encounter will end. You will start lethal challenges Monday.
That roll would hit Malgrim. And the damage would put him at 0 HP.
Just saw your edit about the healing, it wasn't there when I made my post. So, apparently he may not be unconscious as long as he continues to Rage?
Malgrim wins the I took way more damage than anyone else keeping track = favor of Gerund which confers Fast Healing 2 (heal 2 hp at the end of every player round)
Huzzah! =)
Groups have done things differently. Some attacked other bugbears with flanking after finishing off theirs, not against the rules.
Some did not like 'help' with their bugbears.
Maedhros drank the enlarge potion.
Malgrim is still normal size.
Noted that Malgrim and changed thread.
Lanarial, of all those tracking statistics and wearing amulet of Theris, achieves the best accuracy rate.
A staggered character cannot draw (move) and drink a potion (std). May want to modify action. Bandits are getting lucky.
5' step is not an action. =) And I thought the bandoliers we have meant we could draw the potions free?
no, they ensure they are easily accessible (move) vs root through your pack, which is often considered more than a move.
free drawing would be a good deal for a 20gp item.
Apologies, before I post, I made my favoured enemy animal, which should give me a +2 to hit and dmg. Hopefully that is enough to hit or I am disabled!
Holiday breaks starts today, probably resume Jan 2
