Checking in from my phone. Will have a post up in the afternoon.
Looking forward to it.
Something went wrong when creating the Gameplay thread. I created a new one Here. I've emailed paizo, and they should fix it and connect it to this campaign soon.
Hello all
Checking in! Thanks very much for the selection; I'm looking forward to gaming with each of you!
So who will actually be joining us?
Just asking as Xador reacted here but wasn't on the list
The 6 players selected in the Recruitment thread. I, by mistake, sent a PM to Xador. I feel terrible about the misunderstanding, but the 6 in chosen in the recruitment thread is correct.
Tom Quicksilver checking in!
I look forward to gaming with you all!
Second alias for Elenora when not in disguise
Huzzah! The gameplay thread is up and running.
I just reread the tagging along reason for protest, it specifies that you are tagging along with another PC rather than the NPC that Elenora is tagging along with. Would you like me to change it, there are plenty of reasons for her to be here, I'd probably change it to looking for trouble, but almost any but star struck could work.
Go ahead and change it.
@ Xeno; you're welcome for getting the nat-1 out of the way for you. :P
All these successful skill checks of mine are causing me to dread combat, because I know that's when the penny will drop.
Melia just has some things she's good at and will stick to those. I mean, if we get another round she'll even succeed at rabble rousing on a 1 as natural 1's are only auto-fails in combat in PF.
I was thinking just the opposite. All these Natural 1's, I fear for combat.
And then I just realised we have no divine casters or anyone who can throw healing around in any decent way. I guess we'll have to rely on wands and UMD.
Yeah, I was hoping someone would submit, but we only had one divine character submitted and it just didn't mesh well with the adventure to me. I intend to be generous in that department though.
One thing I would like each of you to do, please end each of your combat turns with a status update. I'm leaving an example below for ease of reference.
HP 14/18
AC 20, FF 18, T 14
Effects: Haste (3 rounds remaining), Mage Armor (5 hours)
Spells: 2nd level 4/7
1st level 8/8
Abilities: Arcane Pool 3/4, Runners Shirt (used)
It may be easiest to leave a permanent base status in your profile and just adjust as needed.
I find it very amusing that with EVERY character I play, the name somehow gets changed (ask Raven). To be clear, the name is Johan (although I will probably answer to Jonah from now on as well :) )
Oh, also. I am travelling this weekend so my posts may be erratic. I should be able to post no problem, I'll just have a weird schedule. Helping run the Junior Olympics fencing tournament.
DM_Kumo, I've modified the by-line of my profile to include information that I thought was most likely to be needed quickly. Is there anything else you'd like me to include?

I'll put the status in this alias as I suspect the noble Elenora won't have to fight much.
Are you alright with us posting out of order as long as we don't jump the enemy. As in after you post the enemy actions do you mind if Jonah, Xeno, Melina and Tom post out of order. Then you can either resolve them all in correct order or in posting order.
Why I ask is that being in a different part of the world than most players I can hold up the game if people are waiting for me. If Melina and Tom are free to post before me I should hold things up much.
And thankyou Kumo for running the game, it looks like you picked a good bunch of active players. I'm look forward to seeing how we go.
@Gideon Yes, if everyone's by-line can contain base AC, Flat footed AC, Touch AC; Fortitude save, Reflex Save, Will Save (any situation modifiers ie +2 vs enchantment); Initiative; Perception; and Sense Motives that would be great. Those are likely the only things I should need often for secret rolls.
@Xeno Yes, that is perfectly fine. When in combat, I typically will end every post with Initiative order. If your character acts before the next enemy post then please go. I will clean up the order and make adjustments as necessary. For example, in the current combat, after the citizen group members go, Everyone remaining should take their round 1 actions, but if Raven and Gideon (who already acted in round 1) want to post their round 2 actions they certainly may (and should) since no enemies will act before their turns anyways. Then once everyone has gone I'll post a round recap and then the enemies turns and a new updated order.
Before I post my round 2 actions I'd like to know the results of my bluff check. I just realized that I may not have made it completely clear that Gideon is trying to make the dude think he's on their side, but that was the intent.
I updated the Campaign tab with Kintargo's base stats.
I'm waiting on Xeno before I act. Melia would want to make sure most people are gone before she goes.
No need to apologize, just indicating what I was waiting on. Melia doesn't want to leave anyone behind unless she has to.
Tom has issues with abandoning people.
Waiting on Melina and Gideon. If you're still planning to hang on the edge of the crowd as your last post suggests, just make a post reflecting that. (No worries if something came up it has just been 24 hours and I'm trying to keep things moving.)
Sorry for taking so long to post; my home phone line went dead on me sometime yesterday so I wasn't able to post until I had a free moment at work today.
Raven, I'm going to bump your initiative to going before the thugs so it's easier that they end every round.
I am so happy those rolls went to Johan instead of my thugs.
I'm guessing Johan's post got eaten. I saw you updated your HP and stat block from my last post, but never posted.
Bugger. Not sure what the DC is, but I hoped to climb about 10 ft high, so maybe some falling damage is in order?
(Two 19s and a 1)
<headslap> Ok, fixed mine.
Sorry about the delays in posting... Whenever I have been trying to get on, Paizo's site has kicked me out. I will persist.
Just a quick warning. My wife is due to give birth in a week and a half so likely to be a semi random pause in posting from me. I'll try to get on and post a warning when it starts but I might not get a chance.
So Tom just got taken down by rats?
This is a rather complicated combat, initiative wise, with us having to get down the ladder one by one.
Yup. I'm dying!
Good Luck!
