Guys we've lost Sapphire and Lucrezzia know and they represented a good chunk of the party's fighting capability and magic.
Are you happy to continue, and if so would you like to do anything about our losses such as find replacements or respec some of your own abilities?
I'd built Corrleon to be a back-up healer rather than the main source; he'll never keep up the pace though with how much Corum likes to get hurt =P
This is a pretty sudden and dramatic change for the party, though. Especially in a narrative sense.
I mulled over this for a good while last night and for the bulk of my morning today and I'm still not sure which solution is best.
I'm happy to continue, but all the avenues of doing so just seem so clunky and clumsy.
Happy to run Sapphire as well as Corum (or create a second fighter-type).
I'm not sure what to do either John. I've enjoyed this game but I'm wondering if the loss of two of our members is so jarring it's going to make it really difficult to continue and finish seamlessly.
My time is also much more squeezed since I started my new job a year ago and I'm wondering if I'm not doing my games justice with the pace and quality of posting.
Do you think we should let this one go or would you all like to continue?
I would really like to continue. But I wouldn't hold it against you if you choose to end it.
We would have to recruit for at least two replacements as it is a big loss for the group. I'm sure we all have friends on here we can ask to join but then it comes down to if you want too.
Sorry to see you go lucrezzia it’s been fun. Hopefully you will come back in the future
I’d like to continue with the game I’m enjoying it a lot.
I can run more than one character for the time being if needed, or we recruit some more.
Ok we'll continue.
I'll put the feelers out and see if anyone I know on here wants to join.
Sorry guys. I've been offline a fair amount lately. Just not had time to do any posting. Hope it settles down soon.
I get where you are coming from Corum, been a busy time here too.
I think I've found two replacement players guys so I will try to bring them in as naturally as possible and we will crack on
Any info on who you got or what they will bring in? Or is it a surprise?
I'm talking to a couple of guys from our Iron Gods game Greyston. No idea on classes or anything like that yet and I need a decent way to bring them in anyway so prob won't be for a little while.
I have one player confirmed as coming in as a cleric. Healing, face skills and front line combat all getting a boost. Working on a good way to introduce him
Ok, that's good. We will need all of that, it covers us very well for both players we lost.
Cleric will bring some very handy skills and powers, cool
Good golly, JZ. That was brutal. Just brutal! Must have felt great as a GM but my word, I'm reeling! lol
Must have felt great as a GM....
It's not me, it's the module. Nothing personal :)
Lies :P These things are sick.
Is that offer of reprofiling still there?
What now?
I'll be bringing in a cleric very shortly. I'll get him to post in here to say hello!

Hey, everybody! Looking forward to joining you. Always wanted to play this path. Shurakasai-hime is a healer with face skills and a badass meteor hammer.
Welcome welcome!
Oooofff. We couldn't bring the ladies with and just leave them to baby sit the hut? As if Greyston needed any more reasons to drink, JZ! <sniff>
Hi! Welcome, glad you could join us !
Corrleon, I suspect Greyston is not going to take this well :)
You might be following a witch's breadcrumbs, but this ain't no fairytale Corrleon!
Besideswhich that wouldn't work for reasons that may or may not be relevant shortly.
Yah, let's see how this pans out.
Welcome aboard Shurakasai. I, for one, am always delighted to see a healer with a badass meteor hammer!
Figured that would be better than a lame old dot.
That works for me, it's exciting to meet you.
Sorry for the delay...want to give the backstory a more significant post than is easy on my phone.
The good news is I have a bar napkin full of Asian cinema/comics references I've used to make her former party, a sort of Avengers of Tian. Shame they all have to die!
And here I was thinking it was a reference to a previous pbp group that petered out =P
Hahaha, that would have worked, too. An eleventh level character begs for a bit of backstory, though.
For reference, but in red: http://brns.com/picts20/ladysnow6.jpg
Nice, thanks for that.
Slight retcon, but of course her people would worship a female manifestation of Yabu.
I'm off to the woods for the weekend folks! I'll be back from my camping trip late Sunday night (early Monday morning for you, JZ =P).
Enjoy dude!
Sounds awesome. Enjoy!
Alright, work is still utterly bonkers, so my day-time posts are likely going to continue to be scarce, but my computer at home is now back up and running at least. Sorry for the silence last week!
Guy I'm not very well at the moment. Wil ltry to get an update done tonight once I'm not feeling so woozy
Feel better, Boss.
Hope you feel better soon J.
Hope you have a speedy recovery, mate!
Nishimura you actually with us? You haven't posted in a good while[/ooc]
I'm here!
Gag! The gameplay thread never showed me an update! I'm so sorry, catching up now.
Hi guys. I've given this a lot of thought and I'm leaning toward closing this game.
I just don't think we have the momentum and losing Sapphire and Lucrezzia when we did really hurt us. Also, I take some responsibility in that this adventure path is one big breadcrumb trail and I think without significant work from the GM it can feel like you are really removed from the plot. So I don't think I have done enough to make it feel like what you are doing matters in the grander scheme of things.
On a side note, I have found that my time has become really stretched recently with work playing the biggest part. My job is pretty unforgiving at the moment and even most evenings I am finding I need to do some work just to keep up. That's my problem though, but it just gives some context as to why I don't think I have done as good as job with this as I would have liked.
It's been an amazing game nonetheless with tremendous commitment, brilliant moments and some of the best players/characters I have ever played with so I don't feel that sad if we close it here because it's been a pleasure playing with you anyway.
What do you all think? Shall we scratch this one up and I will get in touch with you all if/when I think I'm good to run a different game on these boards?
