Legacy of Fire

Game Master Megan Robertson

Hello...

Sorry about my silence this weekend; forgot to mention I was going to be at a con. Got an aasimar PC boon for Pathfinder Society!

It's cool. Hoping we pick it up soon. Cause I'm really digging this group.

We seem to be stalling again. Are we all still here?

I am here

I'm here.

Atten-huh!

Here

But wereagle and raulzgig are nowhere to be seen?

I'm down here!

Wereagle?

An awesome Dwarf/Elf rivalry game I'm playing in is looking for one dwarf (or gnome) and two or three elves (or halflings). The respective recruitment threads are here and here.
I'm playing for the dwarf team and it's very enjoyable so far. Dwarves have six level 3 players at the moment, elves are still level 2 and only 4 players, so they are in need of some serious help to even stand a slightest chance :)

Is our game dying? Where is the DM? Noooooo!

Doesn't look good....

Crap.

Guys do we wanna advertise for a new GM?

We are left in a precarious position of being deep in a custom dungeon, though. I'd be happy to either restart the AP from the part where we left off from Katapesh, or to accept a handwaving approach where we abandon the sidequest and return to the meeting point.

Either one sounds like a possibility. If we can, it would be sweet; I rather like this group.

I'm for handwaiving the sidequest.

Hopefully the others chime in and I'll start a ' looking for a dm thread'

A new DM would be fine. I'd step in myself, but I'm already full on my DM docket. I'd say handwaive this dungeon and start over however the new DM wishes personally.

Thread is up. Go introduce yourselves and see if we get a bite.

Guys, not sure if you checked but Megs is gonna be DM. We are go for friday.

Sweet, looking forward to the reboot.

Hello, Megan here.

My intention is to wrap up your side-trip speedily, and then proceed with the AP as written. Hope that will be all right.

I never dropped out. I did post on the 28th to say I was still around. I just did not speak up earlier because I wanted to see what was going to happen first.

I would prefer to get out of this sidequest and get to the adventure myself.

I'm just glad to see the game live on. The side dungeon has been interesting, but it will be fun to get on the AP as well.

As you may have noticed, I put in a request for transfer of the game & discussion threads and they are now under my name.

I think I have come up with a suitable 'exit strategy' for your side-quest, and then back to the AP (where at least I do know what I am talking about!).

Please note: I've just been hired and start next week. Posting may be erratic until I get the hang of things!

However, I still intend to start you off tomorrow (Saturday), but things may move a little slowly to begin with - please bear with me, and rest assured that you are not going to be abandoned (again).

No worries, looking forward to it. Congrats on the new job!

Congrats! Looking forward to the game!

Sweet.

Sounds good to me. I hope you enjoy the new job.

Thank you.

Just been to see them... IT lecturer at a college 45 miles from here, motorway (aka freeway) most of the way, very easy drive.

Thanks for the update. :)

Congrats on the job!

Newest player here.

I'll just chill out here until you need me Megan. Oh and I updated my profile...its much more organized and detailed now.

You're up, Bradar

The rest of you: OK, you don't know that the approaching figure is your new party member, so feel free to be wary or even hostile until you find out who he is and what he's doing! I rely on your role-playing abilities here :)

Hey guys sorry I haven't posted in a few days. Girlfriend and her parents came into town on Thursday and her dad ended up passing away while they were here so...its been a rough couple of days and haven't had time to get online.

I got my post up though and they went home today so things should be getting back to normal...well as normal as they can be...

Oh dear, so sorry to hear this.

Heavenly Father, receive this good man's soul into your tender care, and comfort those who mourn him. We ask this in the name of Jesus our Saviour, Amen.

Take all the time you need. Your girlfriend needs you now. We'll be here later.

I'm so sorry to hear that.

I'll echo Megan. Take as much time as you need.

Ditto. Hope you guys have some support.

I agree with the others. Take care of home first.

My condolences to you and your family :(

Thanks for your understanding everyone. He's been batteling cancer for 12 years so...while it was totally unexpected this weekend it wasn't out of the blue.

She lives in MI and came to Chicago(where I live) for the weekend...makes it hard to take care of her but at least I was able to help her get through the first couple rough days. He died on Saturday and she stayed with me until Monday.

I'm slowly getting back on my feet here and will be able to get back to posting today probably...hopefully the players in the games I run don't want to kill me yet...

I'm truly sorry to hear that, my thoughts are with you and your folks. Echoing Mr Swagger, take all the time you need. We'll be here.

I hope I'm not being too useless in this situation, but Pashaj journeyed into the desert in large part to seek rumors of a "burning oasis," which matches an Iroran parable. Seeing the tree burning above the camp, he is awestruck, and unable to help douse the flames.

He will not try to stop anybody else from putting the fire out, but considering the religious significance this has for him, I can't justify him grabbing a bucket himself. If he gathers himself together enough to stop staring, he will almost certainly start meditating. I hope his non-participation in this does not prove a problem.

You do what feels right in character, Pashaj... and thank you for the insight into how you think :) There will be plenty opportunities ahead for you to seek after religious enlightenment!

Right on. I figured I'd say something because over the years, I've played more than a few people (none in this game) who "roleplay" their way out of helping in virtually every encounter/dangerous situation, and that's not what I intend. Character portrayal/exploration is a big reason I play these games, but teamwork is important to me too. These will be moments like this with Pashaj, but it shouldn't be a regular trend.

Overall, this event excites me for Pashaj's motivation within the story. This, coupled with the defiled Iroran church, makes him certain that he is intended to be here.

You may find yourself having to explain your actions to other PCs - and maybe my NPCs too - but with my DM head on I am entirely happy with your portrayal of your character!

For me role-playing is all about the creation of a shared alternate reality in which characters become 'real' within the context of their world. So I relish playing with other people who seem to have much the same idea!

Agreed with Megan, Pash. Pretty much, so long as it doesn't lead to too much bloodshed, a little conflict only tends to add to the story, way I see it.
