Heads up that this week is GenCon of course, so I will not be posting from Thursday through Sunday. Go ahead and GM PC me as needed.
|
Likewise, I'm leaving for GenCon very early tomorrow morning and won't be back home until sometime ridiculously late on Sunday night. I still plan to check in on my games, but I won't be around more than once a day or so at best for the next little while.
Also, Sorin: if you're around the Heroes of Rokugan rooms at all, stop in and say hey! I'll be the tallest of the three guys running things over there...
Yea that's fine.
Sounds good, I'm back! Sorry to say I didn't make it to the Heroes of Rokugan hall to meet Shisumo though. Pretty much 8 till midnight or beyond every day. A great time, but I'm exhausted!

Wow. Okay, I'm back.
Let me just say these two things about my absence during GenCon: first, having too many people want to play your living campaign is about the best problem a campaign admin can have, and second, $15/day for internet access at a $180/night hotel is ****ing highway robbery. So... yeah. Anyway, yes, I'm back. Exhausted and almost entirely without a voice, but I'm back.
And it is a bummer you couldn't swing by, Sorin, but truth be told, I'm not sure I would have had a chance to talk to you anyway. I ran every slot from Thursday morning through Saturday night, because we were short GMs every time. Like I said, it's a good problem to have, but...
Anyway. Let's get back to the ghostbusting!
Glad to hear you had such a great con! I got to play two slots, but GMed every other slot myself. Ran a lot of Hellknight's Feast which took the whole slot every time!
Apologies, RL is a bit ... well just oot ....
Will try and keep up ... until life gets under control again...
Don't let Tre hold you up.
Back after Christmas...
Have a Happy Christmas everyone ...
Xmas in Newcastle-u-Lyme .. :)
You bet!
Consider me rounded up.
Very sorry for my absence, but the house has been a freezing and dusty nightmare for the last few weeks. The builders have been very slow in getting things done and the trying to live a normal life under these circumstances has been nigh on impossible. At last the roofing in almost complete, as said most walls are down, but we are waiting for the weather to improve enough to have the rendering at the front done, before we can get the front of the house watertight. It goes rendering, balcony then windows and doors.
At the back of the house we are running the kitchen out of boxes as we wait from the kitchen room to complete its build and the kitchen installed. We have no work surfaces except for the top of the fridge and cooker. Hopefully we will have a kitchen installed by the end of February, the floor is down, just waiting for the water from the mains to be connected to the new pipework, which is being dug out now. 1st fit electrics done, now for plasterboards and plastering to be done, including the ceiling etc.
So life has been a bit rough, (not to mention my wife's car was written off when the wind blew my son's motorbike into it, looking to get another car very quickly).
It meant I stopped posting in all games and haven't been on the Paizo boards at all.
We are coming out the other end.
If you are still wanting me to continue in the game, I can start posting more regularly after the weekend.
That sounds like a messy time Tre. Sorry to hear everything you're going through, but it sounds like a happy end is near except for the car thing which is unexpectedly expensive no matter how it winds up.
Hope you can join us soon!
That does sound pretty bad. But yea, we still need our wizard. So you're welcome to stay.
Guys, I'm going to have to beg your indulgence for a short while. I've had several very long work days (12+ hours) in a row, and this afternoon just as I was sitting down to update my PbPs my father called to tell me my mother is in the hospital. I'm not likely to worth anything for a day or two. Please bear with me and DMPC as needed.
Agreed. Our thoughts and prayers are with you Merian.
With this being the big bad, let's hold for Merian.
Merian, hope your mother gets better soon.
Not gonna lie. I'd really like that sword. But that's a lot of treasure for one person to claim - it might be more fair to sell it and split the proceeds. That one sword could become a +1 longsword for Merian and a +1 weapon for Dillan or Barret too.
Well you can use it until we sell it which will probably not be for a while. And Barret doesn't need some silly weapon.
Oooh, that sounds intriguing. We probably eventually have a bunch of items to figure out. I think we've accumulated quite a few, many of which are lounging around in packs :)
The most likely source for a weapon of this potency would be the former warden, wouldn't it? Since Merian's carrying it out in the open, perhaps Vesorianna will recognize it.
Yeah and I'm hoping we've put them all down at least temporarily. But, I think she'll know for sure.
Yep!
Yes, definitely interested in continuing to Book 2. Probably a good time for us to look over everything we have found and make some decisions about who keeps what and what we might want to find buyers for too.
Looks like my loot list could use a lot of updating. I'll try to look at it over the next few days, but I'll be GMing at a con all weekend so free time may be at a premium.
Here's the link again if anyone else wants to try their hand at adding some items
Loot List

Sounds good. Good luck with the interview Megan!
Fingers crossed then. Good luck!
Sorry under the Dr, got some nice medication ....
All from waking up and cricking my neck over a week ago, the pain got steadily worse until having to go to the Drs. Nothing serious but told to keep computer use down to a minimum ...
Will make Tre a 4th level wizard ... and book 2 here we come ..
The Tre I had seemed to have gotten a bit out of date, so remade it with HeroLab, as it tends to be better than me. However, one of the traits I can't find, so changed it to Calistrian Prostitute, which sort of helps with Tre's background in someways. The sklls are now undated correctly, which seems to have got lost behind before, so hopefully its not too badly out of synch with the way what he's been up to so far.
Please take a look and if you say he's OK Megan, then I'll go on from here. The pony is really just from the journey to Ravengro, as he wouldn't have walked ... otherwise it didn't do anything in the game. If itcludes the magic arrows found during the game in Tre's list. The magic wands and the arcane scrolls.
Looking at the forum, I think most games allow spectural hand to deliver the Grave Touch spell like ability, I'm hoping this will meet with your approval too Megan, before I try and use it.

Could do with adding Ant Haul to spellbook....
Thinking a bit a head, Tre is thinking of taking either the Defensive Combat Training Feat, and maybe Reach Metamagic spell.... although I could take a Create Wonderous Item or Create Wand Feat if there is a demand for such feats from the rest of the party. If I take a Create Feat, then I'll ask for a lesser metamagic rod for Reach, or maybe ectloplasmic .... Always open to suggestions...
The flute we found would fit with Tre's character too ...
I'm up to 11/15/2012 compiling the loot list. Should be able to finish it tomorrow. No need to wait on that. Probably won't do us too much good until we reach a bigger town than Ravengro.
