Lords of Themselves: A Kingmaker Adventure Path.

Game Master Red Ramage

I sent an email, hopefully the one he created the loot tracker with is his primary.

Pretty sent me a PM back saying he is very busy right now but will rejoin the campaign soon.

Nice! Hope to see her back soon!

Here am I. Glad to see you guys once more.

Hit the road Jack, and yes come back once more once more once mooore!

Common, Pretty needs to slit some throats!

Red, do you need anything else from us this round? Just wanted to be sure we haven't neglected something you need to roll us forward...

Are we still alive? It's been nearly two months. I'm guessing not.

I'm still around. Red is probably having trouble, since we was posting once a week and now has vanished.

If anything happens let us know!

Still available, and always hopeful. I still wonder what is on the other side of that creepy door we found and sealed off.

So do I. We can go back there and we're stronger and wiser!

Sorry about that, Paizo's forums lost the 'track this thread' status on this campaign for me.

I know we don't generally pay too much attention to initiative, but I think it would be helpful at this point.

Pretty(24)
Kivan(19)
Milo(12)
Maja(12)
Idris(10)
Seraphina(10)

I don't think Maja will break the grapple even with Kivan's grease applied to her attempt, so we might have to focus on disabling the gator attacking her. Sera will cast haste again if Pretty dismisses her darkness. Otherwise, she will try and attack the yellow gator somehow.

With Lay on Hands, Maja has quite a lot of effective HP, so I wouldn't worry too much about breaking her from her grapple. The only thing she loses out on is a couple of arrow attacks. We've got plenty of firepower besides that.

A +17 to break the grapple and a CMD of 27 against grappling is pretty strong, though -- she probably will be able to get out, if not this round, then next, if the crocodile even manages to maintain it against that number.

Here's hoping... My worry is most grapplers have some kind of nasty secondary attack they can activate if they can maintain the grapple, often without an attack roll and that deals serious damage. Like a constrict or a crush, or Erastil forbid... a swallow whole. >_<

Dismissing the spell is a standard action guys, I've already acted. I usually cast darkness on my dagger, so I can drop it or throw it aside, but I didn't state it this time, so let's consider it having me as center.

I'll drop it next round, don't worry, but haste won't benefit me enough to be worth a round of your actions Sera.

Nix's crit will kill the alligator. Longer gameplay post later.

BTW, Did I manage to find my stuff Red?

yes, sorry, everybody's stolen goods are recovered. In a stroke of good fortune, even your rations seem intact and unmolested - the lizardfolk were sated by horseflesh.

I'm not sure if that's supposed to make me happier or angrier ^_^

Red, is the red spot on the world map up-to-date?

Well, I think that's about it for this place. Doesn't seem to be any ghost for us to try and speak to? Probably best for us anyway since spells are pretty depleted at this point. Should we rest here or get started on the long walk back home? Speaking of which, should we just schlep our stuff the whole way or can Milo try and charm some beasties to be our new pack mules? XD

Unless the hour is late, let's head home. We can study up on this mysterious tower and be better prepared to face what's inside. We can also get some new horses and maybe explore some less watery areas of the map.

*taps mic* This thing still on?

Yeah, I've been worrying about that too. I'm afraid Red doesn't have time for us anymore. It's been such a great game with him GMing us. But I know running your own business leaves little time for anything else.

*fingers crossed*

I'll pester him some more irl!

One thought that may or may not help: We can fast-forward a month and go back into that creepy mysterious tower. I know we decided to run away in-character, but I think it was going to get pretty awesome, and it's logical that we'd return once Kivan hits the books and learns more. I'm guessing that it might be less work for Red to pull out any material he had prepped for that encounter before we cut it short!

Yeah, it's still on!

f&@$#%&*@#ing windows 10 decided to install itself, against my will, onto my computer and wiped all my files out. Included in the massacre was the master file for the world map for this campaign. I'm re-creating it right now, will post shortly.

Welcome to the next-always-worse-than-the-previous system, Windows!!

Are we going back or exploring further?

Ugh, that's ridiculous. I installed windows 10 intentionally and had no problems with it, but it shouldn't do it without your permission.

Glad you're back! If you feel the need to take a break in the future, please just let us know.

Looks like it's been 3 weeks since Kivan's player has posted anywhere. =/ Does anyone have means of contacting him?

By the by, Paladin. If you ever need someone to step in on that Hell's Rebels game you are running, feel free to hit me up. Hate that I was absent when that got started! >_<

I might. He hasn't checked in with me on that one either, nor has the player of the sorcerer. Fortunately, the structure of the game makes it easy for new people to join the rebellion and become part of the inner circle.

I'm down with Maja's suggestion for exploring more hexes and getting back to Haven more quickly.

I hope Kivan comes back!

Definitely - we need our God Wizard and literalist Elf back in action!

Haven't seen him post in a while indeed. Including in some other games.

I'll have family around here for the next two weeks, so please forgive me if I miss some days of posting.

I'm down with Maja's suggestion for exploring more hexes and getting back to Haven more quickly.

I hope Kivan comes back!

Me too, but it sounds like we have 3 in favor of Maja's plan so let's call that a majority and roll with it! Pretty's vote was really for a swift decision, so I think we're good.

@Paladin: I'm looking over the player's guide now, just in case. Been thinking for a while now that I might want to run a crafty wizard or something along those lines.

Maja's plan sounds good!

So guys, any news on Red?

And you, how are you doing?

Not as far as I know.

Doing ok, but my computer is having problems so it;s hard to update my PbPs.

I am doing alright. Been a bit busy with the Gameday, but have had some games finish out so I have a bit more time.

I miss this game, but I think I've finally accepted that nothing lasts forever. Red has ruined me for other GM's though, at least as far as Seraphina is concerned. I just hope he's doing well, it's a tough venture he's undertaking.

Hope you all are doing well too!

I was on vacation, so didn't have a chance to check in with Red recently. He is working hard on his business and wants to keep running this game but isn't sure if he can commit the time. I didn't get a definite yes or no so I'll ask again in a few days!

I imagine running a business is very time-consuming. I've accepted that this fantastic game won't continue, though I'm always ready to be pleasantly surprised.
