Have fun!
Reporting for duty!
Ready and waiting!
Glad to have you aboard!
(I suddenly felt like a captain...)
Alright. I am going to start the gameplay session here shortly, but it will be simply a "get to know your fellow teammates" sort of thing. The actual game will begin this coming Wednesday (man, I hate working weekends and when family decide to show up without much advanced notice...).
Looking forward to this! I have never played Kingmaker before so I am excited.
So do I !! Fantastic characters here! Some detailed instruction about stats display or messageboard posts Lugos?
I am going to go over Tessandriel Mithlynnta for any last minute tweaks and refining. I will post again once I am satisfied with the final build.

And I am done. The crunch is complete. I have made some final tweaks to her description to flesh out her appearance and what she wears during the day.
I am an idiot.
I *completely* forgot that the Pioneer trait included a Horse, which left me with 75gp more than I thought.
Lugos, would it be acceptable to upgrade the Horse to Horse, War-trained? (paying the 40gp difference).
If so, I'll do that and find other purchases for the other 35gp that will leave Bexer in the same financial state.
If not, I'll find other stuff to eat up the entire 75gp. (I want to avoid invalidating the RP that has gone on so far)

Seems fine to me.
They did not get out their weapons before Ranzo charged? Let me know if I get a AOO on thier init. :)
Lugos, How are we handling initiative? Are we all going together as a group, then the bad guys? Are we staggered by initiative? (I'm asking as Bexer had abysmal initiative, and I'm not sure if I should wait until after the bandits to post actions)
Just like real life Bexer, you roll initiative and go according to the roll. And until Orsino and Tessandriel post what they are doing, I'll roll initiative for the bandits.
And yes, Ranzo, I will notify people if they are prompted for AoO. As Austin Powers' father said in Goldmember, "This ain't my first ro-day-o, cowboy."
Awesome, thanks. Just happy and anxious...
Sorry I haven't posted lately. I will get something up soon.
No prob, Moff. Was gonna pm you later to see if all was well when I saw this.
Keeping:
90 gp - Everyone gets 10 Gold, 30 Gold goes to Party Treasure..
100 long bow arrows
10 days trail rations
2 alchemist fires
masterwork composite longbow (Str 14) - given to Tessandriel
Silver Stag Skull Amulet
Given to Oleg to sell (assuming he agrees):
4 suits of leather armor size, medium-sized humanoid
4 short swords
4 longbows
Studded leather armor
Dagger
Longsword
Everyone Good with this?
If you really want to set up a party fund, I suggest that you just give it 1 share (dividing spoils by 7). In this case, it would come to 13gp each, and 12gp to the fund (though I'd really want to better know what the purpose of the fund is and how spending decisions will be made before putting much into it).
Also, I note that the loot list is missing 5 riding horses with saddles and tack...that's not insignificant. I don't know who has a mount and who doesn't, but it seems we can all be mounted and still come out with extra cash.
Well 10 gold each and 30 for the fund came out nicely thats all, we can amend it as we get money. I 'think' we need more party funds to start. It might be nice to by the mapmakers kit with it and such.
Thanks for reminding me about the horses, We are keeping them all. Extra mounts and all.
We will need extra money to feed the horses.
Who wants a horse?
I rather enjoy falling off large quadrupeds. :)
Hey GM: any of the new horses war trained?
I want one of the horses and already had take one of Longbows with a quiver (20 arrows). Alright with 10 gp each and 30 for the fund.
Given to Oleg to sell (assuming he agrees):
4 suits of leather armor size, medium-sized humanoid
4 short swords
3 longbows
Studded leather armor
Dagger
Longsword
Did the bandits have cloaks or anything? Something to cover our shapes, sex and coloration?
None of the horses are wartrained. As for clothing, they wore their armors, some breeches, a warm shirt and caps. Haps had a cloak with his clothes, otherwise gear is as was listed.
As for the group fund: I find it really odd that this is actually the first group I've ever played with that is doing so (assuming everyone or a very clear majority agrees).
I think a group fund is an excellent idea, btw.
These horses have some sort of saddle?
All right, at work atm, will have the info for the next part up after I get off.
Great!
Sorry guys, game is on pause. A family medical emergency has come up. I will pick it back up when I get home from Illinois in a few days.
Dude, Family and Real life comes first. Take care of them...
I think I'm going to assume that this is a permanent hiatus. Good luck, all
I hope not, its only been less than 2 weeks, If so its the second time Ranzo got hung like this at the same point… Im going to keep hoping...
Heh....I've been in nine Kingmaker games now, and none has ever gotten past the bandit camp, so I may be inclined to say last rites without a lot of waiting.
I'll be a happy camper if I'm wrong.
Whats everyone elses opinion?
Well, I´ll waiting for the return of Lugos, or his notice that he cant keep the game, anyway I´ve been playing other games at the same time. I understand that a family emergency can last a long time.
may his family emergency come to a quick (and hopefully good) resolution. I say give it one more week if he hasn't posted any notices etc let the hunt for a new GM begin...
I'm willing to wait until the New Year. What with end of the year projects, family emergencies of my own as well as the usual holiday activities, I do not have much time for anything else.
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
It's a game. Real life always comes first with entertainment a pale second. I have had my share of emergencies so I will be here when the GM gets back.
As will I.
Barring any communication (even a 'still handling things, will be a bit' message), I'll hold out til the 19th.
Sorry everyone. Life has indeed been rough... Not exactly a good Christmas.
Far worse than thought when I left for Illinois, but my brother came out of the coma on New Years and has been moved back into my parents place. Insurance, medicaid and the hospital will be footing most of the bill to, so fears that everyone in the family would go bankrupt from it all has been a big relief.
Sorry, but the game is done for now, but in a week or so I will reassess and post if I think I can pick up or not. Thank you for your worries...
I held out cause I know how medical issues can be. Thank you for letting us know. I will continue if you decide to resume the game.
same here
Thank you for telling us!
Well, we may have lost Bexer. Possibly Mikhaela...
Also, my brother will be getting a live in nurse in a few days, so I wont have to worry about heading up their every weekend to relieve my younger brother and parents from care.
Tell you what, I'll start up again on the 1st. That should give me time to reread all of Kingmaker again and convince someone to join in on the game. I'll contact Mikhaela and see if she is down, as well as Bexer. Once I get back from them, if they have dropped, then I will do a rapid recruitment for someone to join post-scene.
And, as always, thank you for your concerns.
if one of them has dropped I'll contact a player I know that you should like, not sure if he will accept but he is a good one.
I'm still willing.
As I pm'd to Lugos, I am certainly willing to continue, though in the interest of disclosure I now have another character in a different Kingmaker PbP on these forums.
I think I can keep the two compartmentalized, but if people are uncomfortable with that, I am willing to stay through this scene and exit gracefully afterwords.
Glad to have you back Bexer and Mikhaela!
Seems Komana has yet to respond, which is a little disconcerting. If I don't hear anything from her in the next 24 hours, you have my permission to recruit your friend, Orsino. Same guidelines for character creation you all went through.
