Hai, hai, tsuzukitai~
Oh and level up to 3rd level!
Average +1 for Hp
Reporting for duty. Looking forward to third level.
I've been pondering how to deal with gear and I've decided that the best way to be fair to you guys as well as the players joining is to have everyone do their gear from scratch starting with 3000gp as per wealth by level.
Of course you can still keep your ''Kassen's Boon" each and the Bag of Holding (type 2). If there is any other piece of gear you'd like to keep from Crypt of the Everflame just pay for it out of your 3000gp. If there's something that could be considered a party item (like potions, that elemental water gem etc) those can be kept for free as well.
This will be rationalised in game as Cygar outfitting your characters with gear from the Pathfinders.
I am considering to jump in into the game.
I would need at least one day to level up Samuel to 3 though :)

Welcome aboard. There's time as I'm currently doing a recruitment. I am curious as to what made you change your mind though?
Sorry, I just realized you perhaps already had other people on mind or were recruiting.
Just go ahead, I was considering because it seems the group is moving forward actively, and it will be nice to also have this module completed.
So please, just pick whomever you feel more comfortable with, I will understand, and I am already in plenty of games!
It's really ok. Sorry if my last post sounded jerky.
You are welcome here.
Thought I should ask before he levels... I had been looking at giving Brayken a single level dip in brawler (so he can finally use his stand still feat Arrrrrgggggh.) But, as the new people will likely be coming in as core classes, he could go for monk or just take improved unarmed strike... still don't know what he's doing, but he will be ready tomorrow evening.
Yeah Sorry Brayken. I am still sticking with the core classes only.
Why do you need the level in monk/Brawler/improved unarmed strike to use the stand still feat? Is it because Brayken wields a glaive?
The general interpretation is stand still requires one to be adjacent to the enemy. Also, it would allow AoO's for enemies adjacent to him, and finally a good source of bludgeoning damage. In short, it's a simple way to cover holes in range because of the glaive.
How about about a gauntlet or a cestus.
Also hi.
They need free hands to use... so it would be one type of AoO or the other, unless freeactions can be done on an opponent's turn.
And we are getting our captain back? Yay. (Brayken has some one to antagonize again.=P )
Wow what a messy recruitment. This is starting to give me headaches.
Apparently we can't run this module with these pc's and get PFS credit.
So I feel like we have two options
- Play with these characters just for the fun of it.
- Roll up these characters as PFS legal "pre gens" and play for the fun of it and for credit.
Of course the restrictions for core only classes would disappear if we made these characters as PFS legal. I would be happy as long as the general feel of the characters role was the same and their personality was still there.
I guess there is a third option of everyone bringing in a PFS legal character to play but that doesn't exactly thrill me as I'd like to continue on with these characters that as a GM I've grown fond of.
So without further rambling what is your vote?!
I would like to continue with Quinn. I didn't start this thinking about it as a PFS module so it doesn't bother me if it isn't run as such.
Thinking about it I'd like to remove the Core Class only rule whatever the decision.
If you would like to rebuild mechanically that will be fine with the same proviso that your characters role feels the same and that "character" (ie. Personality, name, backstory etc) is the same.
I would still like to stick with Core rule book only for Race.
We could readily readjust the characters to be said pregens, just add traits I believe... but for the newbies... eh? I'm fine either way, but does this invalidate the previous chronicle? Not that it should affect too much but I thought I'd ask.
Technically they are not legal. There's not much I can do though as I've already sent them out.
I assume my part of responsibility on that. I was the one that firstly told Kip about using the characters as pregens. I have re-read the rule and it seems it only works like that for APs. It seems a bit unfair towards modules not allow them the same treatment, and certainly discourages their use.
I also feel responsible of complicating the recruitment.
As for the poll. I would much prefer to run it PFS, as I don't think I would have an opportunity to latter run it with a PFS character, and as I said before, I like the chronicle accomplishment feeling. It was one of the reasons I decided to continue playing.
My preference would be to use a pregen and reflesh it's history and fluff so it feels similar to our current characters. It will be easy for Erzen just to pick some summoning and enlarge person spells and feel it close to Samuel.
That said, the other option also works very well for me. I have a level 3 half-elf summoner. I can, I have in the past, and I like, to play it without using the eidolon.
Samuel
^ I could possibly play around with Valeros' character sheet (keep the same background keep and take combat reflexes and bodyguard and give him a glaive instead, but keep the stat line the same) and use that, if legal. I'd probably want to keep the same alias, though I am not dead set on this.
I am happy to go with the flow to keep the game going.
I'd prefer to keep things as is to be honest.
Ok I'm seeing
Quinn- wants to stick with current character, happy for non PFS will go with the flow
Brayken- Fine either way
Samuel- would prefer PFS
Faunra- wants to keep things as is.
So based on these votes I am deciding not to run this as PFS.

Don't worry about it mate. I checked my copy of the PFS guide to play before handing out those chronicle and I was the GM so the call was mine. These things happen.
And don't worry about the recruitment.
Samuel are you still interested now that I'm not running this as PFS?
I think I prefer to wait for another opportunity so I can get a chronicle at the end.
I am already involved in quite a lot of games, so I think it is just better like this.
Sorry to drop you up, but I am sure you will find good replacements Kip.
Good luck with the gaming!
No worries Samuel. :)
I hope you find that opportunity soon.

The new recruitment will not be Core classes only. I shall unshackle myself from GM Everflame's original rules.
If anyone wants to make any changes that's fine (just let me know.)

Okay,
Brayken is now level three. He's going to spend some time with the town's barroom brawlers to learn a good way to throw a kick at those who come too close. He also has bought a magic (ooohhhh!) glaive and an interesting hammer and has started to train with them (somewhat) seriously.
Finally, he found a passable piece of armor.
Thanks Brayken, how's everyone else going with the level up? Recruitment is almost done and we should be able to get started in earnest about midweek. For now we can do a few scenes for the next few 'in game' days as Cygar organises your transport...
Thanks for your patience everyone.
Thanks for selecting me to be a part of your game, I'm excited to get started!
GM, how do you plan on introducing us?
I'll introduce you into the gameplay in just a moment Cygar has asked you and Markus to meet him in his room at the Seven Silvers Tavern and Inn. Which would be the Inn that Markus is staying at. This will take place the evening of the day after the Harvest Feast.
Sorry everyone, super busy day at work and now it's the mother in laws birthday party.
Again the end of my work week is very hectic. I will post tomorrow.
Happy Easter everyone!
Happy Easter!
As some of you might have heard from me here, or in other campaigns, I have found a job in Japan teaching English. I have been packing and busy tying up loose ends for the past week/week-and-a-half and I apologize if this has screwed with my posting rate. I am posting this because tomorrow I am heading to Salt Lake City and will be boarding a plane to leave the country the following day. When I arrive, it will be flurry of moving in and starting my new job As such I may not be able to post until next weekend. I don’t however know what the situation will be like until I am there and may not have access to the internet for personal use for longer, though I highly doubt that will be the case. I will get a post (or may already have one) into the gameplay thread, and if I am holding up combat or role-playing please feel free to bot me! I’m sorry if this causes any problems and I hope to be able to post again soon.
Safe travels and best wishes. I hope your new settlement is smooth and easy so that it is smooth and easy for you. And, incidentally, so that you can return to posting soon ;)
I think the voice rapier gets MVP for this fight.

Wow congratulations. Sounds very exciting. Good luck settling in.
I think the force rapier gets MVP for this fight.
Nice job. It certainly tore through the two guys at the wheel.
This has been one of my favourite battles ever guys. Thanks a lot :)
Nice use of the silent image spell Markus.
Apologies to those who don't have a ranged weapon. I've just now thought of something that would have been good to do a round or two a go...

Hello, ‘ello I’m back! I will have internet access and even better a phone (again…) with internet access! But, right now I will have to use a friends internet connection for a bit until I can get those set up. (Maybe next week sometime?) My schedule is liable to become more busy than before but much more consistent. (No more part-time retail work, yay) I’ll hopefully be back into the swing of things shortly.
I'll get a post into the gameplay thread, but it looks like there not much I can do that hasn't been done already... Good job everyone!
Good to hear Brayken
Hey everyone, sorry for the delay in posting. I've been having migraines all week.
Experience Points!
Crab Exp: 360 each
Pirates Exp: 320 each
My week is shaping up to be extremely busy and I will most likely have to spend most of it away from the boards. Please GMPC as necessary. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Still following along, just thought I'd let everyone know since I haven't posted for a while.
Sorry everyone. I'm having a very busy week at work. I'll try to get a post up tonight.
Hey everyone, wow, rough weekend. It was my birthday and my eldest sprained her ankle. None of the littlies slept well last night and then this morning I had the staff meeting from hell. I'll try to get a post up tonight.
Ps: I've also been training a new guy at work leading to less time for extra curricular activities ;)
No worries GM, real life happens. Thanks for letting us know, and good luck!
