Arthorius is updated. I changed Vanessa's Power Attack to Light Armor Proficiency, and bought her a Hide Shirt (I paid double 40 x 2 = 80gp).

What kinds of gear will be avalible in the town?
Very limited gear my friend. Most of your equipment will come from what you recover from the dungeons and encounters.
Was there some item you had in mind?
Arthorius is updated. I changed Vanessa's Power Attack to Light Armor Proficiency, and bought her a Hide Shirt (I paid double 40 x 2 = 80gp).
** spoiler omitted **...
Thank you. I will have a full look at the character sheet when I have the time.
I didn't have enough to get a longbow and some of the other gear I wood like to have. Just wondering if the town has an armorer or general store etc.

I don't know who you're asking this to...
Authorius, the archlich's character.
Who do we have still with us?
Well it's Saturday and I want to make the selection tomorrow or monday at the latest.
How about we get a round of "sound off/dot" to make sure people are still interested.
Present! And hoping to get a little background rapport going with some before we jump in to the real thing.
Still very interested.
Heiron, how did you get masterwork and cold iron items? I think we start with 150gp.

Trait.
Ahhhh Rich parent trait. Those weapons will come in real handy.
Ahhhh Rick parent trait or heirloom weapon
Yes. Talked about it back on the last page.
Okay, let's get something going here.
If someone was watching you training:
Where are you training and what would someone be able to tell about you?
Still here.
Derz what are you going to submit?
This is Derz.
Servis what were you like as a small child?
Likable and friendly, but very quick-tempered and controlling. He was kind of like an extremely overzealous movie director. Everyone needs to be doing exactly what he envisions in exactly the place he envisions it or else the whole thing is RUINED and his personality does a complete 180 andhe gets mad and storms off.
Cyrus 110+ year old Elf Ranger, adopted forest child who left because he needed to find his roots. (The oldest generation knows he left because he had witnessed to many generations of Ravenholts growing old and dying. Raised by humans Cyrus learned to be far more emotional than the average elf.)
Arthorius 70+ year old Human Oracle, with a Tiger. He is a crazy cat owning senior citizen with a hotline to the gods and quite spry despite his wonky leg.
Servius 40 year old today! Human Paladin. He is holy, but if you disagree with him holy s~#~ he can get moody!
Randy (Randy baby! Yeah!) 17 year old Human Fighter, who ran off to fight bandits.
Heiron 16 year old Human Fighter, who stayed home and carries the family heirloom weapons. He specializes in making ninja training moves with his giant sword in the woods just outside of home.
I'm still here (with Arthorius). I'm a little confuse with the elf around us (Lol?) but... Okay, I guess! I also didn't quite understand what the "Medium Woodland Creature" wanted with his previous post...
What do those that encounter you see outwardly?
What is your campsite like?
You are being watched Authorius.
Going to give us a final 24h. If we are just five, as I believe that is currently the case, I will probably just allow all five players.
Still sad for no arcanist but what can you do. I prefer to bend the adventure a bit and make it all work than be a brick wall and have things break.
PDXCook might make an arcane character. He is a strong poster. I played with him in another game the DM threw the towel in on.
Hence my 24h time extension :) !
Just found this thread, and am interested -- have been wanting to try out a witch, and this seems like a great fit for a game.
Here's a first cut; will put together full alias / char sheet later today.
Vera Ravenholdt
CN Middle-Aged Human Female Witch
A slight woman of 40 with piercing eyes and auburn hair starting to grey, Veronika (Vera) Helmholdt has not set foot in Raven’s Hollow in a quarter century. A challenging adolescent, she was sent away to boarding school, and has never forgiven her parents, Heirome and Miriam, for the isolation and cruelty she felt while at school. It was at this time that her familiar, a pygmy owl began coming to her and whispering in her ear at night, a companionship that lasted her through school, two failed marriages, and the years of just surviving since. Vera doesn’t know why the time has finally come to return home, but the spirits that whisper to her have said it’s time.
Str 7 Dex 12 Con 12 Int 20 Wis 12 Cha 12
Feats: Extra Hex, Improved Initiative
Traits: Honor-bound, Suspicious
Patron: Enchantment
Familiar: Owl
Hexes: Misfortune, Cackle
Spells Known (all/8)
Spells per Day (3/3)
Reviewing the other characters again, I see Servius is also a 40yo with interpersonal issues and a long separation from home.
Perhaps he and Vera are twins, who have followed very different paths in their time apart? If that works, Servius, I'll take the tight bond trait to match yours.
Sure. That's cool with me.
Okay, here's stats; haven't done equipment yet. Made a few changes from my initial choices.

A challenging adolescent, she was sent away to boarding school, and has never forgiven her parents, Heirome and Miriam, for the isolation and cruelty she felt while at school. It was at this time that her familiar, a pygmy owl named Sava, began coming to her and whispering in her ear at night, a companionship that lasted her through school, two failed marriages, and the years of just surviving since. Vera doesn’t know why the time has finally come to return home, but the spirits that whisper to her through Sava have said it’s time.

This hex lasts for a number of rounds equal to 3 + the witch’s Intelligence modifier. A Will save reduces this to just 1 round. This is a mind-affecting effect.

There we go. Heiron is done, fluffwise.
Still here
You have to look at Paizo, they are under family traits.
Here is Ivan Ravenholdt.
I need to rework the equipment but I think it is complete.
Having lived the last several years in a far off school of magic he has received the call to come home. Forsaking his studies he set out to help the family in their time of need.
What family traits you guys are going for? I need to set mine :)
Hello everyone, it's time for the big decision.
Well, normally it would be but I've looked after the characters and I'm loathe to cut someone from the group at this point for a few reasons:
- There are always people who can't post on one day or another and having a slightly larger party list works out alright.
- I can always make encounters that split up the party.
- More people means more roleplay. Also, I like our final party line up.
So congratulations to:
Servius
Randy
Cyrus
Heiron
Ivan
Arthorius
Veronika
Before the actual campaign begins, I will invite everyone over to discussion. You will need the following:
- A finished character sheet and profile. I do plan on "deconstructing" each sheet to make sure all the numbers are right. If anyone else among the party is good at this, I'd welcome the help. I've already checked Servius a while back, so if there's no new additions, that's 6 sheets to verify.
- A finalized trait selection and a finalized "family relationship/position". Feel free to make them up together or individually. Remind me (in bold) if you are linked to either a known NPC or a PC.
- A blurb about where you've been/what you've been up to in the past 10 years.
- Your character's feelings towards the Ravenholdts and his ancestral home as a whole.
- Your character's greatest strengths and accomplishments, and their greatest fears and weaknesses.
Yay!
You will need the following: (bullets)
Do you want all of that in the alias profile, or in discussion, or other?
Side note: thanks for turning me on to Darkest Dungeon. I hadn't checked it out until you namechecked it, and it is really pretty rad.

And yeah, DD is totally amazing.
I think Ivan is ready for review.
Ready as well
