Kingmaker: The Stolen Lands [Gestalt]

Game Master Æroden

Yeah probably.

I'll likely be using this to start with

Looking good on those, Aurora!

And yes, the forums were sketchy for parts of this weekend.

Thanks for the renders. Seems like Austrani might be the closest to what I'm thinking. The goggles from Nomad are good. So much cleavage though!

I managed to pick this one up for less then a Dollar
And does fit Jenya some, but I want to check if you still want Austrani?
Also Heels or no Heels?

and I didn't do the render for the products I've linked to, I'm just pointing to the store page so people can see what options I have.

Don't know if you can mix and match clothes but the coat on Pirate is perfect and is closest overall to what I thought of Jenya. No heels please.

Thanks for taking the effort. I really enjoyed your creation of Anody in the Iron Gods game :)

Austrani is Genesis 3 based
while Piratess is Genesis 2 based.

converting clothes/items from one generation to another is hit and miss as data can get lost in the conversion.

Yeah it was fun trying to get the glasses right, though I now have some nice new Iray shaders for glass/gemstones surfaces when I need them.

Notes so I have quick reference post:

Krazok:
10", Muscular, Draconic, red scale, breast plate.

Albinius:
6'2" thin, Half-elf, lab clothing

Fritz:
6'1" Muscular, Half-orc, breast plate. //done

Jenya P:
5'1" Agile, Human, Piratess + Goggles.

Valisia:
?? Agile beauty, Aasimar(Gnome), chainmail armour.

Selena:
5’7” Built, Elf (use tigerlily), cloth.

Krafnik:
?? Agile, Human ??

Blienka:
?? Built, Human, ??

Rough drafts completed so far.

Albinius

Fritz

Jenya

Selena

Valisia is about 3' tall, if that. she only wears a fine chain shirt, not full mail. skirt, boots, cloak. Not sure if you can do her eidolon or not, that would be cool.

Yup that is pretty good for Selena. A red or white with red dress would be better if possible, also can you get the platinum choker?

I like the rough render quite a bit.

For the game are the PCs going to be on one team? Do we pretty much decide which way we're going to be exploring? I'm good with pretty much any direction. Seems like the Nalmarches are almost fully explored?

I might do a special summer render since summer is starting to come to a close...
Likely at a beach..

Yup that is pretty good for Selena. A red or white with red dress would be better if possible, also can you get the platinum choker?

I'll update the color of the dress and see if I do have a ideal collar/choker in my inventory.

Selena image updated.

Looking good, Aurora!

I imagine we'll group-off as appropriate for the task.

Watch and see how exploration will be taken care of from here on out. It should go quickly and get your group to the fight quickly. I believe we now have 7 PCs in the group, all but Jorne, Krazok, Sly, and Selena.

I will be away Friday through Sunday for camp, you will be lucky if I get any posting in during that time. I may not be able to get any more posting in until Monday.

I will also be camping starting this weekend and will not return and be able to post until probably Aug 8th. Maybe a day earlier, depending.

Moving this to discussion

I don't understand your character Aurora. What is a Huldra? Is that your race and class also? Is this something made up?

Huldra is a Race.

Now I am using something akin to the 3.X Savage Species, where a powerful race is broken down into class levels. This allows for powerful races to be playable at lower levels.

Now I am using a beta version the author of Monster Classes made public earlier until he took it down* and started the final published version that folks could pay for.
I'm using the beta version since the final version is of Huldra is not made yet.

Before I made Aurora, I PMed GM Wolf about the character idea and gave a link to Beta23 of Monster Classes to review and decide yeah or nay.

*Beta23 was taken down Jan 2015, but I kept my copy of Beta23.

Aurora, are you a tank then? I note your sheet says something about SLAs, but I don't see any listed.

To make the character sheet usable for me and others, I've spoilered chunks of the character data, so data you not looking for is not visible, you just have to enter the group of data your looking for.

Click the SLA spoiler button "Show" and you'll see the SLAs I have at the moment.

In a few hours, I will be leaving for a Shakespeare festival in Canada. I will return tomorrow night and likely to post late Sunday/early Monday.

I hope you enjoy it, Fritz.
And if they sell Beaver tails at a food stall, try it.

I will be away for a week camping, without internet starting tomorrow through Sunday the 7th.

Good with the team distribution and ready to go ahead whenever everybody else is.

Apologies all, my phone died while out of town; I am borrowing one now. I will be able to post substantially on Sunday night.

it is also GenCon this weekend.
So I expect folks on the boards to be missing

It happens to us all Fritz, no worries.

Since we've split into groups, I think it best that we spoiler our posts with the title of the group so there is no cross talk between the groups or confusion of who is where.

if you wish to do so, please use one of the premade, pre-titled spoiler tags below Just remove the '?' from the Tag to use it

[?spoiler="Krazok,Sly, Albinius, Jenya"]
[/spoiler]

[?spoiler="Blienka, Fritz, Krafnik"]
[/spoiler]

[?spoiler="Valisia, Selena, Aurora"]
[/spoiler]

I really don't like spoiling like this. We are going to split and regroup, and assumably communicate once we meet back up at the fort/capitol. No reason to make things more difficult. If you do not want to see what is happening for someone else's group, simply don't read them.

I know it is extra work, but it has many benefits;

it is also GenCon this weekend.

So I expect folks on the boards to be missing

Apologies for the delay. Indeed, I was at GenCon and though I had a great time, my phone did not. I will make a gameplay post in the morning.

If splits will be extended, I do prefer spoilers of some sort to make scrolling less laborious.

Back from camping.

Regarding formatting posts and spoilers. It might make sense to just put a little ooc or note at the start of the post for each group while we split up for a few days. Getting overly elaborate seems like a lot of work. If we are going to be split apart for a lengthy period, it makes sense to create separate tables for gameplay.

I know it is extra work, but it has many benefits;

Prevents meta-gaming from a glance of a post

The group can RP how they experienced the events their group did (i.e. a bard could hype it up and the other groups would be none the wiser)

Helps those who miss a few days of posts and does a catch up with their group without confusing it with another groups posts.

I've been in a few PBP games where the group split and I found the ones where the group's spoilered their posts were the easiest to read and keep things organised. It was also easier to re-read the posts over a year later without confusing anything.

If the concern is meta-gaming and keeping secrets from other players, then I will bow out. I have had past problems with this, and it makes the game really unfun. However, if people need to worry about these things, then it is clear that people are incapable of playing fairly. Good players don't metagame and know how to separate OOC and IC knowledge.

This game has a habit of speeding up and slowing down. But has kept going. Yes, we have several new players, but I do not want to mess with what has worked. If players cannot remember which group they are in, then it is clear the person is either not paying attention to the game, or is in too many games.

I'd prefer no spoilers myself as well.

We won't need to worry about spoilers with how I plan things to advance... assuming that you follow the instructions of your leader.

I will advance the game tomorrow when I have time. Sorry for the delay.

Sorry it has been hectic in my life. I have been setting up my classroom, vacations, summer school and lack of sleep. I will post when I have time but out with family and on the beach this weekend. I should be back Tuesday to my normal schedule.

No problem as that is understandable.

I go back for classroom prep week after next, so I feel you!

*pokes GM with wand of smelling salts*

Thanks Fritz...

Sorry my teaching job had me do so many trainings and I have been putting my new classroom together, it has only taken about 50 hours so far... :(

Anyways I hope to still be making at least a post a day.

I'll be gone from Friday to Monday out Camping.

Finally got around to another two rough draft renders:

Krazok

Valisia

Notes:
just so I have quick reference post for the last two rough renders:

Krafnik:
5' 7", Agile Toned, Human(??), Traveling clothes

Blienka:
~5' 6"~, Built, Human (Taldan), Long Hair (Color: ??, Style: ??) (Clothing: Monk like assumed)

Blienka looks like her avatar.

Blienka looks like her avatar.

Noted, and found the Full image in Paths Of Prestige so i have a better idea, Clothing style is more Monk+Caster

I'll collect a set of clothes that I think fit and give the image list for you to decide which one matches best.

Pretty fun, thanks!

How goes the new school year, GM?
