NotEspi's 'Clash in Kaimuko Wood' [PbP Gameday VII] (Table A) (Inactive)

Game Master NotEspi

On a recent foray into Kwanlai, the Pathfinder Society learned that a conniving being from the Abyss has been targeting righteous communities on the border between the tengu nation and Tianjing to the south.

Amara Li's Letter:
Honored Pathfinders and treasured colleagues,
I received an urgent request from an old friend of our Society, the samurai Shiyo Takarak of the Way of the Kirin. To my surprise, she has been working with another, more recently acquired friend of the Society: an archon of Heaven named Zepha. The two, it seems, have been pursuing leads discovered by one of our Society’s previous expeditions into the Kimu Mountains. Clearly impressed with their previous interactions with our colleagues, the two have asked for skilled Pathfinders to lead an expedition into Tianjing to follow the trail of evidence further. This is an excellent opportunity to strengthen our ties with both the Way of the Kirin and the archon. It also provides an opportunity to explore some of Tianjing and perhaps some of its ancient celestial-inspired architecture, arts, and philosophies. Zepha and Shiyo are in Kwanlai’s capital, Hisuikarasu, planning the expedition. Meet them there in the private room of the Gilded Lotus Teahouse.

With Regards,
Venture-Captain Amara Li

Hey there! This is a recruitment thread for my gameday table. I will run a lottery if we have too many signups. Welcome, and have fun!

Please submit your information HERE

In case you did not get into this table, I strongly suggest you check other tables for available slots. You can do so HERE


The scenario looks interesting. If we are going low-tier, I'll bring Kazu Chuko, my tengu UC rogue (you know him) who would be level 5 by then. If it is high-tier, I'll bring Lin Kai, my level 9 investigator.


All good. It looks very interesting for tengus in particular. Put down your details in the form if you haven't already.

Grand Lodge

Sounds like a great game. Time for Li Shuo to return to Tian Xia!

Level 5 Zen Archer, level 1 Inquisitor.

Liberty's Edge

I'm interested multiple PCs in range.

Sovereign Court

(qstor} I need to update him but I'll play my tengu monk oracle.

Dark Archive

Count me in! If we are low tier I can bring a level 5bloodrager, or a level 7 warpriest/monk. I have many options for a high table.


Not sure what the above mess is about.....registered as Phosdlon, warpriest(ranged) 6L(maybe 7L).


Likely a bot. Flag it as spam and we'll move on.


Interested with 3-4 different pc in range

Scarab Sages

5-9? I can presently field the following:

- a level 8 Hungry Ghost Monk

and
- a level 9 Reanimator

I also have several characters who are presently in the field, but should be back by then:

- a going-on level 8 aspiring Arcane Archer

- a level 8 Illusionist

and
- a going-on level 6 Theologian

Finally, a few who are in lasting serial engagements, but might be done with them/on hiatus by then:

- a level 7 Knight of the Tome

- a going-on level 6 Shadow Puppeteer

and
- a going-on level 5 Occultist


I'll leave the signup open for a few days. Kuey ran a few games for me, so I will reserve a slot for them, other 5 slots will be filled with a lottery during the weekend. This is player-wise, so you can talk on the tier and composition after we have a list of contributing players up.

Sovereign Court

Putting in my interest for this.

Silver Crusade

Interested in bringing my Lvl 6 Half-Orc Paladin (Redeemer) to this. He is Silver Crusade.


I would like to urge everyone who is interested in joining this table to put their details down via the form made for this purpose (link provided in the first post), as that is the one (and only) place where I will draw names from.

As long as you have a character in that level range available, go for it. I'll be picking players, not characters, so it doesn't matter whether you decide to play your level 5 or level 9 once the game starts. That is solely your decision to make, but if you wish to have your name in the lottery pool, please use the form.

Link to the form again.

I am posting this because I saw a lot more posts here than names in the form, so just in case someone missed it, and all that.

Thank you.

Silver Crusade

Filled out the form with Narayan here, but I've got some other level appropriate agents if party balance or tiers become a concern.


Right. I just received an email from Hmm about getting the slots set up as soon as possible, and we have 12 people in the lottery, so let's get it over with. Rolling a d1000 for each of you, in the order of signups. Kuey and 5 highest rolls get in. Good luck!

Rolls:
Tarondor: 1d1000 ⇒ 269
qstor: 1d1000 ⇒ 346
philipjcormier: 1d1000 ⇒ 538
Helikon: 1d1000 ⇒ 447
[dice=Kyle "Worg" H]1d1000[/dice]
Skorn: 1d1000 ⇒ 954
Greenclaw: 1d1000 ⇒ 945
I'm Hiding In Your Closet: 1d1000 ⇒ 912
Great Green God: 1d1000 ⇒ 53
Cwethan: 1d1000 ⇒ 395
GM Aarvid: 1d1000 ⇒ 986
nightdeath: 1d1000 ⇒ 509

Right.

Cwethan - 986
Kyle "Worg" H - 954
Skorn - 945
Greenclaw - 912
philipjcormier - 538

Congratulations! I will be contacting each of you via PM with instructions.

As for the rest of the participants, thank you for participating, but the dice were not on your side. I would open another table, but I am afraid I applied this policy recently and I'm already running 2 games (not including this table) as it is.

In the event that I finish those games before Aug 13th (I assume as much, but can't be sure), I might open another table and contact the next 6 people to particiate. In the meantime, however, I can make no promises.

Thank you again, and good luck in your other lotteries and tables!


Ah, to hell with it. I should have both of my current tables closed by the end of July. I'll open another table for everyone else except I'm Hiding In Your Closet.

Sorry, dude/dudette, but you ended up with the short straw. If someone opts out, I will contact you first, and then look elsewhere. Thanks again!

Link to the next table coming soon (need to make a thread first). With that said, anyone wishes to shuffle around to be at a table with anyone specific, just let me know. Here or via PM.

Liberty's Edge

Thanks GM

Maybe we can do a high table and a low level table? My PC is 5th?

Silver Crusade

Just a heads up, the links to this/these game(s) from the PFS PbP Gameday VII - Scenario Listings seem to be dead. They take you to the 'Have you inherited a game?' page.


On the bad links: Thread links probably changed when I added the 'Table A' and 'Table B' into the titles. I'll sort it out at some point. In the meantime...

Based on the sheet HERE, I've assigned you to lower and higher tier tables.

It seems like both parties are pretty balanced, with at least one floating variable in the equation (Aarvid) so - unless someone wishes to be at a table with a specific player, let it be known, and we'll arrange it again.

I'll give you all a day or so to discuss and decide, and then we'll distribute the players between tables and mark others as inactive.

I'll be contacting all players that passed the lottery via PM in an hour or so, just in case some of you are not watching the thread.

Grand Lodge

I'm good with low tier. I am currently playing "The Blackros Matrimony" with GM Chyro. I will still be 6L after I have finished.

Liberty's Edge

Kazu (kuey) is good with low tier. But if someone in high tier want to switch, I'm fine to have my L9 investigator take over.

Silver Crusade

I'm happy to go high tier!


I am quite fine with high tier.
Felicitas is a bard with high Diplomacy and buffing abilities.

Silver Crusade

Thanks GM. Low tier table for Stugbu works for me.

Grand Lodge

Works for me.

Thanks, GM!

Sovereign Court

thats fine. works for me.

Scarab Sages

Hey I originally signed up for my witch, Deep Tofu 220424-13 for this, but I am wondering if you would allow me to swap in a different high tier character?
Gorund Kahn 220424-03
Level 8 Phantom Blade Spiritualist


If someone moves to a lower tier, sure. Any takers?

Scarab Sages

Actually my first character looked like he was already on High Tier (7 Witch). The new character Id bring in is also High Tier (8 Spiritualist Phantom Blade)

Scarab Sages

So ultimately its Remove Deep Tofu from High Tier to put in Gorund Kahn into High Tier. (Swapping a 7 for an 8)

Sovereign Court

Is table A low tier? If so @GM could you please remove me from Table B? :)

Silver Crusade

"Fine."

Sovereign Court

I have no complaints.


@Kyle Oh. Okay then. In that case, that's a non-issue.

Silver Crusade

Thank you very much!

Grand Lodge

I am quite happy to be at the high table at level 7. Am not scared. Nope. Not in the slightest. What is the worst thing that could happen...

Gonna so look for the chance to play between now and then! :)


Ok - so high tier 8-9. I will list what I have in range and see what best fits

Probably leaning towards the sorceress 9. Especially if we have several 7s

Wembly: summoner 7.0 - **AVAILABLE**
Victoria: sorceress 9.0 - **AVAILABLE*
...


If Skorn isn't comfortable with the high-tier table, Kuey could bring his L9 to high and Skorn could go low?


Sorry wasn't monitoring this thread. Yeah, I'm fine to switch to high tier. Let me know? I'm fine either way. Either I get a tengu in a tengu scenario, or I get my Silver Crusade guy in Silver Crusade scenario.

Silver Crusade

Bringing my Sorceress 9 to the fray. (GM Aarvid)


So what's the rundown on the slow swapping, folks? You need to discuss this stuff. I can't be the negotiator in everything. Especially since it's pretty much wrapped up on my end for now. Skorn? If you want to go low tier, now is the time to speak up.

We have a month to start. I'll start making handout slides and links for the tables, and the usual 'getting ready' stuff in the threads, and I will need to have a set-in-stone list of players participating in the table involved.

So let's get that out of the way, if possible.

Sovereign Court

Table A is the low table right? So I'm good here.


Correct.

Grand Lodge

I'm good where I am. However, if it's needed, I can bring a high-tier Magus instead of my low-tier Zen Archer.


Since people asked, high tier table can be found here.

I wanted to resolve the distribution of players first, but I believe we have that covered at this point. We still have 4 weeks to shuffle, if need be.


I've created discussion threads for both tables a few minutes ago.

Table A is low tier, table B is high tier. Go on and put your info down, if your characters are not locked in a game. If they are, and you would level up, etc, we can wait. 3 more weeks to go, so we're all good for now.
