Agreed Olaff. She is very busy with a new job. She said she was going to try and post but wanted to rest up over the weekend. but today is Tuesday.....

Can we get another player?

I really like this adventure. I hope it continues.
Ok, I'm giving Adelaide another day to contact me. It is wierd to 'remove' her since she is playing a solo game with me that I intend to restart. I just hate causing bad will, you know?
The extra wrinkle is, I hate to just drop her because you need her for this fight. In any case, if she doesn't respond today (I'll post as her tonight) I'll bot her for the future. Ok?

All right, we have to replace Adelilaine. Through no fault of her own, her life has become unfavorable to futher gaming.
This puts me a rough spot since I made ley lines a key part of the plot. Should I re-work the plot, keep it and hope you guys can make connections, or force the other person to have some ley line angle?
Thoughts from everyone, if you can. Thanks!

The easier solution would be to ask a player to have a ley line angle, since I think you'll ask him to make an arcane PC, though it is not really easy to find a player to fill a concept...
I think we should try to do this and if we can't, you change the plot.

I agree with Olaff. Ley lines are cool, but you need someone who wants to play that angle. Without that, we can just play for the fun of it and no one will suffer.
This is a cool group. I'd like to see where we end up.
Good news! I found a replacement for Adelaide. One of my friends, he was in the ill-fated party that I played with campaign a year ago (where they killed Bandrift in the opening tavern).
He;ll play something to do with ley lines.
All sound good?

Nice! Sad to see the only girl leaving the party though... Olaff had some plans for that lovely creature!

Sorry for delay. Had a massive car problem....been stressed out!

Our replacement player's sheet is almost done. I also have a good plot place to introduce him!
Male Human Arcanist 5
Hi everyone, glad to be joining this game, as you know I was in the original incarnation of this game which didn't last much beyond Bandrift's death. Your group seems much more competent! I'm putting the finishing touches to my Arcanist character who will be joining soon, he is a mathematically inclined member of the Magaambya academy, so you guys will have a native guide! If you have any advice/requests for the build I should use to better complement the group then I will see if I can add them.

Welcome Sun-Mage Zambe!
I think the only advice I'd give is that, IMO, we have already a good amount a damage dealers (Olaff is more defense focused now, but he will eventually get rage and TWF with his shield), so a more generalist/buffer spells array might be helpful!

Arcanists are cool, from what I've seen of them. Welcome!

Definitely peruse the maps and then make for some treasure hunting!
Ok.
Are we stuck?
Roll Call for interest in keep going?
If we want, I can nudge things along...

Yes. Let's check out the map.

Olaff would want a closing to this part... like seeing that the 'cursed fungus' are gone.
Aside from that, looking the map might be a good idea... Also, we need to meet our new guy, right?

Yes, exactly! Let's meet up and get started with our new companion, and see where the map leads. He looks really cool.

I think that a real intellectual powerhouse would know the jungle well, and have all kinds of useful knowledge besides his great spellcasting.
Sborki is a casting-oriented druid. He sucks in a fight, but once he levels a bit, he'll be summoning animals to help us fight.
I'm looking forward to getting this going again. The concept is great, and the adventure so far has been tough but doable, with some creepiness to keep us on our toes.

So, can we get this going? We'll look at the map, and decide where to go next.
We got a mage, a druid, a fighter and a rogue. Let's get on the river and see what 2 humans, a half elf, and a grippli see.
Do we want to just time-skip ahead tot he next section? I have no problem moving things along to introduce the new guy in the next (big) post. The fungus section is done! You guys won AND should level up actually.

Yeah, do that. Leveling...
Putting a point into jungle boat whatever. Actually, Sailor. We need to be able to use it with some competence.

+8 Hit Points
+1 Fort
+1 BAB
+1 Dex (4th level ability point)
+7 skill ranks (2 class, 1 Int, 1 human, 1 favored class, 2 background)
+2 Craft (alchemy) -> this cursed jungle lacks a good ale!
+1 Knowledge (dungeoneering)
+1 Intimidate
+1 Perception
+1 Survival
+1 Swim
- Improved Bull Rush (4th level replacement)
+ Two-Weapon Fighting
+ Missile Shield
Since Olaff has the Fortified Drinker trait thought it would be fun for him to make his own beer and looking at the Alchemy Manual, there are a couple of 'Magic Ales' that would be fun to craft!
This is why I took the two points in Craft (alchemy) for this level... if there are time to retraining, I'd also like to take 2 skill points from Profession (herbalist) and put them into Craft (alchemy) as Olaff is slowly loosing hope in finding the Ynhalthis and seeing that when he is completely drunk, his dreams are less threatening.

I haven't leveled, yet, but I will before I post again.
We're a cool party. Just play with it.

All leveled up here, as well.
+8 HP
+1 Dex
+2 Reflex
+1 BaB
+10 skill ranks (8 rogue, 2 background)
In all sorts of things. That I don't care to recount.
+Uncanny Dodge
+Debilitating Injury
+Resiliency Rogue Talent
Looking forward to the fun that the Debilitating Injury will bring. Make it way easier for all of us to hit things/not get hit by things whenever I can sneak attack.

Don't forget the bonus from Automatic Bonus Progression. Your weapon and armor both get a +1 enhancement.
Sborki's got wild shape and significantly more magic, now. Pew! Pew!
Ok, so everyone is on board. I'll move us along...

I put a point in sailor. We probably all should.
1 person marked this as a favorite.

Yup, Olaff has two points on it!
Guys, I think I am going to cancel this game. I apologize, I really do but I just don't think I am up for the effort it takes to maintain a party game. It is just much harder then the solo games I am used to.
I know it sucks when a game ends, but I think I am pulling the plug here. Sborki and Landon, you are two cool guys and I'm sorry you didn't see me at my best. I guess this just wasn't the game for me.
I hope there are no hard feelings.

Nah, not at all. This sort of thing happens. Sorry to see the game go, but I'm not sore about it. Glad to have been a part of it while it lasted. Hopefully, I'll be seeing all of you around the forums here again soon!

I've done the same thing. Sometimes, you just aren't feeling it. No worries.
