That probably works best for me too. I will be going, but still have a lot to prep and things are pretty hectic at work. I'll be raring to go when we return though!
Sounds good. Sadly I will not be going to GenCon this year -- I have been going every 2nd year. I have already begun saving up for the trip next year (It's an expensive flight from Western Canada.)
I too will be making the trek to Indianapolis, so that works for me. I'll leave a standing invitation to meet up with anyone that's going, I'd love to meet you all face-to-face!
I'll be spending all of my time in Pathfinder Society land. I would love to meet face to face. Here's my schedule:

No GenCon here, but a hectic period nonetheless. :)
My schedule's less packed than yours, Baolo. I'll be in the Heroes of Rokugan room for the majority of the con, with occasional trips to head to the dealer hall and a trek over to play Heroes of Altamira, a small 7th Sea living campaign.
Hopefully everyone is back from Gencon and refreshed.
Yar!
Back!
Woo woo!
1/2 the group is back in one night...great! Hopefully, the rest will follow.
*peeks in* Glad to see this game is still going on!
*runs off*
We take a break every now and again, hoof, but we're here!
Guys, probably due to our "breaks" you've forgotten that we play with max healing rule out of combat from spells/channels/wands/potions, etc., as the party does not have a dedicated cleric. So factor that into the charges left on your wands and your potions.
D'oh! I always forget that rule!
Gotcha!
I'll be away from my computer from Friday until Monday, FYI. Please run Ialda as necessary, and I'll be back Tuesday! Thanks.
Waiting for up your saves, Left-Ear!
Does someone want to roll for Left Ear to move game along?
I rolled for him.
Still around guys, just fighting severe flu. Also need to put out combat map.
Yuck, flu! Get better soon Lucendar! We'll be around once you get healthy, caught up and have some time for that map.
Aero, you're up!
FYI: In the AP, bullywugs invade the manor but they're copyrighted by Wizards so I replaced them with lizardfolk, since I don't have Bullywug stats. I kept the CRs the same.
I don't remember for sure. Was a bullywug sort of like a frogish creature?
Yeah, they were frog-men. IMO, it's better to say you got beaten up by a lizardman or woman, rather than frog-people! LOL..
Baolo is up!
Say what you like about 4E, I did enjoy the mechanics they came up with for bullywugs. They were creatures so misshapen that even the universe didn't want them in it, and the world was in a little bit less pain when one was killed. Mechanically, if you kill a bullywug, you regained a used healing surge. The game really hated frogmen!
LOL!
Lol, I had no idea! That is some real racial hatred, isn't it?!
Left-Ear has until later today to post or he will delay.
Sorry, I thought this was still the round I shot my shortbow. So, one more volley!
I'm always OK if a game delays on me if the GM does a basic post where my PC "auto-attacks" (in Aero's case, it's simply firing off a single arrow).
Sometimes I've completely missed that its my turn to act. Sometimes I'm waiting for the bad guys so I can post, and then am distracted by real life...
In general, when I used to GM PbPs, I'd always have an understanding if a PC didn't post in 24 hours, they could be GMNPC'd in a combat so things don't take too long.
Not sure how you folks may want it in this game... it's a fairly slow one and everyone is getting posts in here. :)
I've always played with the 24 hour rule myself. I will more strictly adhere to it in the future.
I'm fine with however Lucendar wants to run it. 24 hours works for me...
Yep, I quite like the 24 hour rule as well.
24 hours is good for me too
Since I doubt Gruug is going to rush after the lizardman with 8 hps... DING! Welcome to 4th level! I know it's odd to level you mid-rescue attempt but just go with it! You will have new spells, feats, hps, skills, etc. but not recover any abilities or spells already used. It's a not a full rest. You just automatically learn new abilities.
As always, post detailed changes to your character in this Discussion thread: hp roll, skills, new abilities, saves, etc!
Congratulations again!
As always for hps, you can take 1/2HD+1 or play the odds and take my roll. Anyone feeling brave?? :)
With how on fire Aeronniell's arrow damage rolls are lately, and the fact that I was apparently smoking something strong when I decided to give her a 10 Con, I feel compelled to roll...
At some point, I'll "fix" Aeronniell with some good decisions and purchases - I'm not overwhelmed with her prowess mechanically and am still trying to find her RP groove.
Once we save Lavinia, would we be able to pursue some retraining using Ultimate Campaign rules?
Uh Aero, rolling is not an option. 1/2+1 or my roll are only options. Sorry.
Oracle (Stargazer) level 4
+?? hp (?? rolled, 1 favored class)
+1 BAB, +1 will
+1 charisma
New spells:
0 - purify food and drink
2 - glitterdust (from stargazer), burst of radiance
Skills:
diplomacy +1, swim +1, know(arcana) +1, know(planes) +1, perception +1, profession(sailor) +1
Sine we lost Xerathi, our arcane dept is lacking pretty badly. Grugg is solid on the front line, so I think I'm going to take a level of sorcerer, and make sure my casting is not too terribly gimped when I enter Dragon Disciple.
So I will be barbarian 2/sorcerer 2. I plan on taking the half plus one HP, or 4 plus 2 Con plus 1 Favored Class or 7 total HP.
2 skills: Know. Arcana and Perception
+1 BAB
+ 1 Will
One extra first level spell cast per day (5/day total)
One extra 0 level spell known--chose Message.
Added my 4th level stat boost to Strength.

DM, if you get a few seconds, please check my numbers on my new damage bonuses considering my new Str, combined with Power Attack and Rage. I always screw those up, lol.
Wait a minute. Looking back over the thread, I misstated the hp rule.
Ok, with hps, you roll. If you're not satisfied with the roll, tell me and I can roll for you but you have to take my roll, even if worse, so decide carefully.
Sorry about that. So Aero you get to keep your 7 hps rolled. And you can roll, Ialda.
Okay...here's my roll.
HP
Even better! So that's 5 + 2 Con + 1 FC for 8 this level.
I'll chance it with your roll please.
Think I'll take the chance on your roll too Lucendar...
On my way to PFS, but will level and post in Gameplay (if I'm conscious) later today.
Another level of Inquisitor
Favored class bonus: +1 hp
+1 DEX
Swappable Teamwork Feat: Coordinated Shot
Spells: See Invisibility, Silence
Skills: Stealth, Perception, Knowledge (Religion), Knowledge (Planes), Knowledge (Nature), Knowledge (Arcana), Intimidate
Could one of the oracles rejigger their new level skills a bit and take a rank of Spellcraft? I'm afraid we are falling woefully behind on that one. My sorcerer levels don't leave me another point to improve mine, unfortunately. 2 skills/level...bah!
