I would be willing to contribute to the wand of CLW.
Otherwise Vladimir's purchases are:
- 3 x Oil of Magic Weapon (+1) - 150 gp
- 2 x Oil of Bless Weapon - 100 gp
- 2 x Potion of CLW - 100 gp
- Alchemical Silver Dueling Sword - 110 gp
Total 460 gp

We'd need to know how many party members are planning to stick around to know exactly how much the wand would cost overall. So far the only person who has dropped out is Gonzo. If everyone else stays, that's still a party of seven people. Divide a 750 GP wand 7 ways and that leaves 107 GP for everybody. Khargol will contribute 108 GP to make up for the remaining gold piece.
I -think- the only person we haven't heard from yet is Durielle.

Sugua Bran't |

She is out of town still so that is variable and expected.. I GUESS Sugua will put towards one even if he doesnt see the point but mainly its he doesnt have anything to spend his loot on otherwise.. he wants a +1 Sword. He is completely martial.

Donovan of Restov |

Of course I'll contribute for a healing wand.

Durielle Omenstar |

Hi everyone! Back in town, and I'm willing to keep playing. While I have returned, technically I'm still on vacation. I may need a day or so to update her sheet, but I should be able to make little posts here and there to remain active.

Donovan of Restov |

Wherreeeeee was our current earned gold total? Can't remember if it was in this thread or in the gameplay thread.

Donovan of Restov |

Yeah we earned 1,000 gp each from various ancillary encounters, over in the gameplay thread. I went digging for the earlier total that Alphonse calculated per person here. I was just working out my totals with what we've earned minus my few purchases to date. :)

Vladimir Ducheski |

PM waiting for you, Mr. DM.

Donovan of Restov |

Anyone want any weapons, armor, or gear masterworkified?

Alphonse Calderon |

ok i really would love to post in the combat but i feel we should address my second level spell, currently whats the deal with gonzo? he is gon but is he being DMPC'd? or should i take a damage spell and hit things with gloryous fire?

Sugua Bran't |

Thematically Burst of Radiance would be a good spell though. Bandits tend not to be all that evil so damage wont go through. Whatever you pick jut know as a sorc it has o overall be good and useful.. because you'll be having it for a while.

Alphonse Calderon |

i agree burst of radiance sounds like a good spell choice for now, i need to save my pennies for a ring of spell knowledge i think, will make these choices less difficult

Alphonse Calderon |

so i work more or less 10-6, seems i keep ariving just a little to late after dinner and find myself already having acted. this actually doesnt bother me in the least but i want you to know i am about to post later in the day and i work weekends. so i will try to post earlier if you perfer just letting you know my situation

Sugua Bran't |

Thats fine, in general I assume the GM is going based on what you have available.. nicely both times were to get you away from danger and magic missile a person.. you put one of the archers down, that is commendable.

Durielle Omenstar |

HP: +5 (5-1+1)
Total: 22
Constitution +1
Saves: +1 Will
BAB: +1
New spell level: 2
New spells: Lvl 2 cure moderate wounds, detect thoughts, early judgement; Lvl 0 spark
Skill points: 6 (4+2)

Durielle Omenstar |

I never noticed that line of the skill description before, but it makes sense. I'll do +1 to Heal instead then.
I made a purchase of 50 cold iron arrows and 50 alchemical silver arrows which I haven't reflected in Durielle's profile as of yet. Does anyone have any other gear suggestions, or should I keep saving for bigger things?

Durielle Omenstar |

Thanks for all the suggestions on gear, guys! ;-P
Also, I know I asked this what feels like a million posts ago, but I feel it bears repeating.
Have we ever returned to the alchemist to trade all those animal furs and stuff to get potions of all sorts? If so, it would sure be handy to know what kind of potions we have or could have acquired by this point...

Sugua Bran't |

Not really sure Probably what our extra 1000 gold is supposed to represent. Availability Im not so sure.. I never really spend loot on them save fore things like Fly.. or maybe a CLW here or there.

Khargol Uzgurn |

I want to apologize to everyone for my lack of consistent posting lately; real-life has hit me like a ton of bricks in the last eight weeks. I haven't said anything to the group about it because I've never been one to burden others with my own problems, but it's also not fair to everyone else for me to keep things to myself when it might slow the game down, so I think it's time I let the cat out of the bag.
To make a long story short and not go any more in depth than I need to, after eight weeks of separation I've asked my wife for a divorce. Thankfully, we have no children and she's agreed after several long talks not to contest it; we've also worked out property distribution on our own, so there will (thankfully) be no attorneys involved. Even so, it was the most difficult decision I've ever had to make in my life.
I'm not ashamed to say that my faith in God has been a big part of what's kept me going these last weeks; if any of you are praying people, please know that I would covet any word you may send to the Father on my behalf and on behalf of my wife. This is going be a very difficult transitional period for us both.

Sugua Bran't |

I will say this from the side of both this character and Myself. Life is hard, but you have chosen to continue and push past something difficult even though its painful even though you might be disliked or branded later on. Ultimately it is for the better. Do not feel bad you are an adult and can make these decisions, you have gone through much in your years of life.
One battle might be bloody and cruel, but the next bright and victorious and the war in the end may well be won. Fight on for that future.

Durielle Omenstar |

I hope everything is working out for the better, Khargol. Sometimes people in your situation feel relief, and other times added stress and depression. Ultimately, we can pray your situation only improves and takes you along the path you are meant to walk in life.
Chin up, sir!
DM Tuyena: I want to say, when we are in encounter type situations, it is tough to keep up with the posting requirements when combat doesn't move forward. I know it's not all on you, so I hope everyone's doing alright in RL, and no one is having too much stress. Just wanted you to know, I'm here and watching for new posts. :)

Sugua Bran't |

Technically its not on the GM at all.. He COULD just NPC them the whole way through.. but then what would be the point? Especially if he has to make choices they wouldnt do even IF it would overall save/benefit them.. because that might be out of character.
The ones that have stated reasoning to be absent has been noted.. others not so much.

Alphonse Calderon |

actually its mostly since my daughter was born a month ago, i spend less time reading things over now and double checking stuff so ill fully admit its probly a me issue. first child is a handful as i expected, i dont wanna let the party down and i kinda feel like im doing that

Durielle Omenstar |

Sorry if I missed it, but have we already gotten a bandit outpost loot tabulation? Hoping to see some +1 bows or something. :P

Khargol Uzgurn |

Just wanted to pop into the discussion thread and let you guys know that I'm back for right now; hopefully there won't be a time when I'm gone again for so long. I'm about to be going on vacation with some of my family so there may be some times when I can't post, but I shouldn't be gone for days on end like I was this time.
Just to give everyone an update on the situation, all the legal stuff is pretty much handled now. I filed for the divorce and have a court date set, which my wife is probably not even going to come to. With all the paperwork filed and everything more-or-less settled I should be back on track to keep up with the AP again.
Let me again express my gratitude to Tuyena, and everyone else, for being patient with me as I got all this stuff taken care of. If anything else comes up, I'll definitely let y'all know, but I'm hoping nothing else is going to spring up that knocks me for a loop the way I have been.

Vladimir Ducheski |

I've been thinking on a decision for a while now, and have made a choice to leave the game.
DM Tuyena, thank you for running the game. Good luck and happy gaming to those of you who remain.

Donovan of Restov |

I will be going with Vlad. Take care and best of luck in your kingdom-building, folks.

Clousuk Sootscale |

Hey everyone... I'm sure you've noticed by now that my posting rate here has plummeted. Far from the ideal 3-4 a day I originally agreed to. Not for a lack of ability, but for a lack of overall enthusiasm. I know I haven't been in the game for particularly long, but I feel like Clousuk has more or less run his course as a character.
I hate leaving so suddenly, especially when others are taking their leave, but I think my slot in the group would be better served by someone able to meet everyone's expectations.

Durielle Omenstar |

I see that we seem to be losing everyone. I also notice there has not been any mention of recruitment or replacing anyone, a trend I noticed with the exit of Gonzo. I admit I have also been much less enthusiastic about things of late. I have wanted to chalk it up to just RL intrusions and/or just general business, but my impression has been even DM Tuyena has been just going through the motions lately. Only Sugua has been truly invested recently.
I know the game started out strong, and I feel like it really could have lasted. But I think the personality conflicts that emerged really ended up hurting things despite people playing nice for the cameras. I'm sad to think I may have caused any of that as I really had hoped we would recover.
DM Tuyena: You had a high ambition for this PbP and I think your initial plan was a good one and was working for the most part. I hope you will indeed find success with a future game even if it isn't Kingmaker. If you enjoyed my play, feel free to message me so I can be sure to present a submission.
As it is, I will go ahead and exit this game as well. I hope that if the last of you who are remaining decide to move forward, you are able to find competent and creative individuals with whom to play. And keep using whatever dice cheat you found, Sugua! It's working! :D
Thank you for the opportunity to play with you all.
