Barbarian :)
So we finished with the gnome and mine in month 5 as well as this exploration. I would say we finish getting the treasure and scout any hex that may be adjacent not sure what hex this was in? Month 6 was done and is adding Olegs to the kingdom. We can explore and clear more hex's in month 6. I will work on a kingdom sheet like I did in another game that is easy to follow today and share it. I will do another 6 months as well as it seems we have no business coming up as well.
Wolf I will do the events in the kingdom turn like in the other game just to keep things easy to follow and we can know what months we will be spending RP time on.
Excellent. Ok go for it!
So we may need to RP another couple days as We got sent from work and we are off until Friday. We will probably lose power from the Hurricane so my posting may be on and off. It will come through probably late tomorrow night so should be able to post some tomorrow after we get everything done around the house to prep for the storm. Thanks will be a few days before I'm back to normal posting.
Well Kevros I do say that was wonderful! I like what you wrote and don't think I could have done better myself! ;)
Thanks for letting us know Tristan, and be safe!
Sorry for the grammar, I was pulled away before I could totally proof read it and by then my edit capabilities were expired ... :-(
Be safe Tristan, it looks like my diluted turn after you. Hopefully, our rivers are low enough to handle what we receive from Michael.
1. Tomes and Manuals to increase attributes,
2. Magical Items that increase attributes,
3. For Kev, a Composite Longbow +2 or better with the following permanent enchantments (Keen Edge, Gravity Bow, Holy, Distance)(Bowstaff, Impact),
3a. For others, weapons +1 or +2
4. Quiver of Endless Ammo,
5. Mithral Buckler, Chain, or Elven Chain with magical bonuses.
6. Handy Haversack or better,
7. Special Mount (Faster travel),
8. Dynamic Magic Items such as Cloak and Boots of Elven Spirit, and etc.
:-)
Sorry about the delay. Personal stuff. Hope the latest one gave a laugh or two. I sure did smile writing it haha
I was being honest and sincere. :)
I know it was unnecessary to the plot, but who doesn't want to see a drunken sprite? I know I did. It's why I wrote it.
Someone has to rep chaos in tbis mofo.
*Looks at Kevros's wishlist*
After 5 years of this game. Wow. I have begun to realize that our GM is a sucker for cool mounts. When I made Quince I figured a horse would be a good choice. I even used my connection to Scram as part of his Backstory. Which was actually how my mom got a horse when she was a girl (a horse abused in Polo not a divine revelation). Knowing GM Wolf's enjoyment of cool mounts, Stalker has a teleporting horse, Saren rides a dragon lizard thing, Krazok has an Final Fantasy bird you get the idea. 5 years ago I figured horse was a good grounded choice now I realize I should have asked for something more exotic. So if the GM wants to give out a Celestial Honey Badger, Tauntaun, or other awesome creature I would be quite happy. Just saying.
I know, that's why I added in but also for two other reasons, scouting is fun but once you discover everything, faster travel becomes more necessary. In addition, as we level, our current steeds become more and more fragile with time in which Sota Fizz can kill them with a sneeze. Oh, and one more thing, since we are the leaders, we may need to move fast across the Greenwatch to defend her.
If I am delayed for a bit, we got hit with a power outage issue too but we are being positive and thinking we will be unaffected even though Michael will hit us harder than Florence did due to the path it is taking versus Florence.
LOL ~ Sota.
Quince start searching for one in game. There are animals you can train to be your mount or you can request a certain celestial honey badger to be found for the ruler of the kingdom. ;)
A good reminder for me: Put an item from each wishlist in the Wyrm treasure trove.
I have two lists, a normal wish list and special day (like Christmas, birthday, game anniversary, or GM Extra Nice Day) list ... lol. Also I am here, my power flickered yesterday and trees came down as the rotation wall came by my house.
I didn't have a wish list.
Was I supposed to have a wish list?
"Generally rogue-y/sorcerer-y stuff" - big 6 items, maybe?
I'll come up with a real list when I get some time.
Oooh, and if you ever happen to, you know, have a Robe of Arcane Heritage lying around, I'm just saying...
I spent most of my money increasing Sota's carrying capacity, since it was in the range of "a couple pieces of cotton candy" before adding muleback cords and a haversack, so I'm probably missing a few fundamentals.

LOL. That would be a betrayal of his life long friend.
Unless he is getting up in years? Which might be the case.
I will have to think about how I want work it out with Scram. I just thought it was funny all the exotic mounts the NPCs had.
1- Perhaps there is an item that beefs him up or grants a cool ability. Honestly that sounds like a beyond level 5.
2- Maybe he gets old and needs to retire. I have yet to pick a new set of animals to talk to so perhaps there is room for us to meet a Giant Elk mount or an armored Bear that I can add to my talk to animals list.
3- I start to RP through dreams and such which might turn into me seeking out a way to have Scram go through some sort of transformation. Into ? ? ?

Or some sort of polymorphism effect.
All are options Quince... option 2 is purely your choice if he is getting old. The others you can find and begin looking for. ;)
I have been trying to figure out what animal is Kev's spirit animal like my highest level character is a bird of prey in which he found a rare large bird that is both fast on land and in the air, and equally dangerous in either.
Kev's spirit animal is definitely Equine in nature. I have a good concept in mind but I would like to hear other options.
These are suggestions for Kevros.
A giant smart rhino with better vision would be cool. Rhinos are amazingly agile, they can turn on a dime like horses even with all that mass.
I was thinking something like Shadowfax with modified Air Walk, force breath weapon, and natural weapon + force strike like Channel Force. The horse is all white except the hair is gray and it looks like Friesian except obviously the color.
I could see Kev on a Hippogriff except for the wings but not the Griffon or Manticore. And while Kev is one of our Erastil worshipers, I don't get the feeling Elk, Moose, or Deer are Kev's spirit animal as well.
An Axebeak!!! lol
LOL ... no something more like a giant fast running and flying Utah raptor that would frighten off an axebeak (aka Terrorbird).
That may be the dumbest thing I've done in character ever...and my first D&D character was a kender who asked a minotaur which parent was the cow, his mom or dad.
If we're all getting mounts, how about a flying spider monkey? Lol.

Hurication is over. We have power and we are now back to work. I will be playing catch up. I hope to read through and make a game play post. Thank you all for the patience. We were lucky and just had debris with no damage at home.

Glad to hear you are safe and sound. I hope the clean up wasn't terrible for you.
One of my regrets about leaving Florida: we never had a hurricane D&D marathon. I kept trying to get my friends to hold one, you know - no electricity but candlelight d20 rolling and the like...makes for a great time passer.
Then again, towards the end of my time there, everyone I met who gamed was a f@%+ing flake. Why is flakiness the most common shared attribute of gamers?
I hate flakes.
I don't have the ride ranks or feats to make it work, or hell even the build to make it practical, but I love the vision of Sota riding an orange tabby cat with battle armor into the fray. Especially if it has an adorably non-threatening meow. Just...wanted to share that mental picture. Oh, if only you could use rogue's finesse on a lance, lol!
Meoooooow
"Whoooa, there, Bloodbath! Easy! Easy girl! I'm sorry, she's normally not so ferocious, but we passed a few field mice on the way here, and she's seen battle recently. You'll have to forgive her terrifying visage. Put the claws away girl, these are friends, nay foes. There there...There there."

Glad you are OK Tristan, with power, and no damage.
Yeah my old christmas wish list had two feats on it which I now have from level up, so I didn't have a current wish list either :) So we have the items to select from and 14,400 each.
Is that the 100,000 split up or do we have that as a party loot to buy stuff with as well?
Btw GM can I swap my know arcana for spellcraft? I can't believe I remembered one and not the other...and if Sota has only one, spellcraft makes more sense. No worries if not.
Alao...dex gloves? Anyone mind if I take?
I want to claim either the Handy Haversack or Dex Gloves.
The 14,400 is the divvy from 100,000
Or I should say 14401 is from the second divvy of 100,810. You know, this is our first pay check ... LOL
I'll just put in a claim for the Handy Haversack and Sota, you can have the Dex Gloves if no one wants to challenge. Since I am getting close to medium load, it would be nice to have the Handy Haversack especially since I can stuff it with a lot of arrows ... LOL.
I'll post in game play when I get home when I have more time and have time to refresh.
I will take the Gauntlets unless Quince wants them. I'm already really strong so I'm good either way.
I say the King gets the Cloak, I'm sure we will all buy one anyways :) Will work on gear and kingdom stuff tomorrow. Got pretty much caught up with everything today.
That all works for me.

I am glad everyone is safe and sound.
It is crazy how Sota in game can be so... soooo... funny and spritey out of game as well. I love it! A great addition!
Magical items easily identifiable:
Handy Haversack --- Kevros
cloak of resistance +1 --- Quince
gloves of dex +2 --- Sota
gauntlets of str +2 --- Tristan
belt of con +2 --- Katrina
+1 rapier --- selling? Giving to Krazok?
Others:
A glowing rock the size of your chest, 3'3'3'. It glows with red and orange light, it is a black rock of some kind.
A tome of brown leather binding and a lock with a strange start design, not your standard lock.
A tome of yellow leather binding and a leaf shaped lock.
coins and gems in gold:
201,719
1/2 for kingdom: 100,810 = 25 BP
1/2 for players: 100,810
Quince, Tristan, Kevros, Katrina, Sota, Krazok, group health items: 14,401 gp each to spend on items
Question did Angeus wake? On my first read I thought so now I am not sure.
Do you guys want to give one book of his choice to Sota, and we all roll for the last one or Roll for both of them, one winner for each book. Roll d100 and highest wins?
As for the rapier, let's ask Krazok if he wants it instead of just giving it to him. It seems more of insult to give him a "small" magical item.
As for the Wish surge;
1. What power can you choose?
2. What spell-like ability can you choose?
Question did Angeus wake? On my first read I thought so now I am not sure.
Nevermind I saw that she woke.
I can pick the one with the lock. Both meanings of pick. :-)
Re: being sprite like - To me, characters are, at some fundamental level, a reflection of an aspect of their writers. I'm not a doofy childlike nice loveable dope, but sometimes, there's a part of me that is. Not all, but aspects...or at least it's a relatable outlet for that deep down urge to toss it all and act like a kid again.
The same is true if I'm playing a lawful evil devil tiefling who wants order and control and security at the cost of freedom; fundamentally I disagree as an ooc individual, but I can channel and control that part of my personality, deep down who can understand why fear would motivate you to give up freedom for security and order.
Somewhere, somehow, I need to really and deeply "get" what I'm playing or I just can't do it justice. One reason I rarely cross gender RP. I don't get most women. It's not an insult, but their mindset, for the most part, is so foreign to me as to be alien. Otherwise I would be relying far too much on stereotype and conjecture to improvise the why behind the what, and I'm sure I'd eventually make a caricature of the gender
Sota is a kid at heart. I can get that. I remember being a kid. It isn't me now, but it's not alien to me. As I grew, I imagine he can, over the course of time...and dynamic characters are far more interesting than static ones.
Yep need to know what level power/spell we are limited to before making choice.
I like the idea about rolling for the books, but Tristan will be out so you guys decide as he is going to touch the rock.
Oh yeah I just meant I'll help open it no matter what, magical rogue and all. :}
So looking back the kingdom turns were messed up as I was using the really old kingmaker rules on economy and building cost. Also there is no rule to against building a farm on the same hex as your city. A hex is 12 square miles and a city district is one square mile. I guess if the city got really big maybe you would have to destroy the farm.
So I'm working on the sheet and I will do the 6 months as we had keeping the rolls but buildings may change as the BP is different. Also the starting area is all hills not plains so farms are more. After I get that caught up I will do the next 6 months and link the sheet. Though we may have some leadership changes for month 7 with our new peeps. :)
So roads are just not practical at the start as we are claiming hill hexes with rivers so they would be 6BP, So it will be Farms and Mines/Quarry's. We will come back and do roads a bit later.
So Month 1 was: Holiday 1, Promotion Token, Taxation None
1BP Claim Hex, 2BP Prep, 4BP Farm, 6BP Mine 27BP Castle for 40BP Total. Economy Check generated 15BP+1 Mine so end with 26BP
Month 2: We gain 1BP with Stability and Start with 27BP Consumption is 4-2=2, 1BP claim, 4BP Farm, 6BP Mine, 6BP Mill. 8BP + Economy 11BP+ 2mine: 21BP Balance
Month 3: Gain 1BP with stability start 22BP, Consumption is 5-4=1, Claim Hex 1BP, 4BP Farm, 6BP Mine, Hex has Lair +1 stability, Blacksmith 6BP. 4BP+16BP economy + 3mine= 23BP
Month 4: Gain 1BP with stability start with 24BP, Consumption is 6-6=0, Claim Hex 1BP, 4BP Farm, 6BP Gold Mine(Resource), Armor Smith 6BP, 7BP+13BPeconomy+5mine= 25BP
Month 5: Gain 1BP with stability start with 26BP, Consumption is 7-9=0
Claim Hex 1BP, (Can't build farm here until we claim hex 2 and build a farm, no water.)Road Hex 40,41 12BP, 6BP Weapon Smith. 7BP+19BP(Ec)+5(M)+3(Ev)= 34BP
Month 6: Gain 1BP with stability start with 35BP, Consumption is 8-9=0
Claim Hex Oleg's 1BP, No Farm need adjacent farms or water, 6BP Roads Hex 4 and 3: Free Stable, Temple, 2 Houses at Olegs. Build Town Hall in Capital 11BP, and Nobel Villa(First House, Mansion of Villa doesn't count against buildings per turn) 12BP 5BP+20BP(Ec)+5(M)=30BP + 25BP Dragon Treasure = 55BP.
Alright got the original turns redone. For turn 7, I have made Oleg Viceroy/Mayor of Olegton or whatever we call his place. Moved Jhod to Treasurer and Sota to Magister. We may make other changes depending on how things play out with Krazok and Selena. We don't have stats for Larina either she may be able to take a role. With the influx of BP and doing better then we originally thought I'm going to look at some of the big buildings. In another kingmaker game we did the theater to get a discount on the Inn and Tavern, then plan on upgrading the theater. How do you guys feel about that?
The theater grant us more happy citizens? What other options are there that are better or equal?
That all works for me Tristan.
The only caveats I would offer is that we have a very nature/pro-fey team. Our Queen is half fey, we have a PC who is a sprite. If any of our choices would cross a line I hope the GM would warn us or would we need to talk more about things.
I don't think we have done things that would betray that ideal I just wanted to point out that the FLAVOR or our expansion and economy is one that wouldn't want to cross the line on things the Fey might have issue with.
It that possible with the Kingdom rules?
We need to watch how much land we use, how many trees we cut down, replace cut down trees with saplings, only use what we need, and use all what we need, no waste. Basically what Erastil wants too except be equally good to your families.
