I am still here got a little behind in the plot and well just let the Scene play out so Ank-hore didn't sound awkward after being silent.

Pirate Goblins Riding Dinosaurs would be awesome.

I will have to think of some other things.

But I am still here.

I am still here; just need some grunts to carry this back to the ship; Guys; we still need wood to fix the ship; I gots plans hehe so if we need to ride dinos; they could be a big help; anyone got riding skill?

anyway; i am jazzed about the game i just get lost sometimes in the dialog which is normal for online games I think.


Hey guys!

Sorry, I got unexpectedly grabbed and repositioned across the water. My apologies for just dropping off the face of the earth. It sometimes happens.

I just read through all of this and am delighted to see it is still going and still maintaining hilarious tone.

Wanted to drop by and apologize for bailing in the first week without even saying 'bye'. It's NOT because I wasn't enjoying things.

Anyhow, have fun!!!

I am sorry for the huge delay, is there a way Ank-Hore can come in, the RSS feed for this game was not updating for me.


Bonekeep Slides

Good timing! Sure, go ahead and roll initiative and in true goblin fashion, Ank-hore can wander up from whatever mayhem he was previously involved in. I'll put you in this round if you go ahead and post in the next day.


M Goblin Druid 7

I'm out of pocket for a few days will likely not post again until Friday :( feel free to dm pc me to move things along..


M Goblin Druid 7

I apologize for the delay in posting the last few days my little girl broke her arm so it was a hectic weekend :(


Bonekeep Slides

Ouch. I hope she's feeling better!

It's okay, we're dealing with the suicide of my predecessor at work, so it's been an odd week. I may be slow to post, but I promise next week will be back to normal.


Male Goblin Cleric Level 7

I hope your little girl is well

Good luck dealing with work.

and as a heads up I am going to be going away for training next week and I am not sure how the internet is going to be where I am.


M Goblin Druid 7

Busy week for all, she seems in better spirits today, she will have a cast for 3 weeks. Just tough for my little booboo as she doesn't understand... Only 2 years old.


Male Goblin Cleric Level 7

That is a tough age for that, my son broke his at that age. Did she get to choose the color of her cast, I know that helped my son.


M Goblin Druid 7

She was so timid she didn't want to so I picked hot pink for her and she later told me it was pretty.


Bonekeep Slides

Aww, poor kid. It's the worst when your kid is sick or injured. It's a special feeling of helplessness.


Male Goblin Barbarian (Invulnerable Rager) 7

There's a whole lot of things that RPGs come a pale second to, I think we all get used to that.

I hope everyone's problems iron out. My dad always said that injuries build character but 2 is probably too young for that.


Male Efreeti, advanced manthing 45HD

hope she feels better soon


Male Goblin Cleric Level 7

FYI this week I am going to be in Michigan for Training and I am not going to have internet during the day.


Dwarf

I make a Ray Bradbury/Shakespeare reference and he dies a few days later..... He was so embarassed by being associated it killed him.... DND killed him :(


Male Efreeti, advanced manthing 45HD

weird....btw; can only post at work (quickly) as my pc at home is dead atm


Male Goblin Barbarian (Invulnerable Rager) 7

Crang likes the coat, so someone else can have his +1 ghost-touch studded leather armour.

Whosi?


Male Goblin Cleric Level 7

Quick question which rules are we using for hero points


Bonekeep Slides

Well, it's not exactly Pathfinder standard, but I'm allowing you to use a Hero Point to essentially dictate the result of an action without rolling dice. Namely, you can say what happens, provided it can happen within a round.

Ok I will write it up tomorrow and make it cool


Male Goblin Barbarian (Invulnerable Rager) 7

Our Mysterious Benefactor has offered us a chance to advance the campaign: I figure this might allow us to create a new set of opportunities, some ideas:
1. Goblin Island: We have settled an island, we wake in the morning to pteradon-egg sandwiches and rut with our wives, raiding merchant vessles and are perfectly happy, except for a longing for elf-flesh and more axes.
2. The Fleet: We have 3 or 4 boats and an army of goblins, orcs and other races.
3. Into The Volcano: We have found a treasure map to the island of dragon-y death. We refused to look at the words though, so all we saw is the big picture of a mound of diamonds!
4. For Zogmugot!: We have established a temple to zogmugot and draw goblins to use from all around.
5. Hmmm... that didn't go well: We have been captured by the elf, the dwarf and the shiny man. Because we were all very, very drunk after seizing a ship full of rum. We can't escape until we've figured out how to steal the elf... even as the gallows are being built.
6. A Whole New World: We have a big trauma when we try to group-hug a dryad as she disappears into her tree, now we're all in the first-world, rocking the fey-creature template and surrounded by singing tree, bubblegum flowers and grass so sharp it strips flesh.

Any other ideas?


Bonekeep Slides

Heh, all those sound fun.

The reason for the jump is that I want you to enjoy the fruits of pirating, but I also want to introduce a linked series of adventures featuring little bits that I've introduced thus far. However, I need you a bit higher level and instead of running 17 pirate raids that all seem the same, I figured I'd let you write your two year hiatus, leveling your character or changing them as you see fit and go from there.

What if we had some Pteradon Riders as well, it might be cool to have a couple on each ship to attack from above.

No problem or suggestion here.

Sounds Good Diamonds no reading check.

4. For Zogmugot!: We have established a temple to zogmugot and draw goblins to use from all around.

Sounds good set it up in a cove that will collect flotsom and where we can drown sacrifices to The Lady of the Last Breath.

I am not to keen on stealing the elf isn't the elf the one you wanted as your concubine. I am for revenge and the act of Drowning the Elf, Dwarf and the Shining Man to The Lady.

Nope Ank-hore hate bubblegum flowers

7. We could move from the Shackles Pirating up the coast towards other civilized areas and nations stopping the evils of reading and horses everywhere.

8. Having had a vision from the Lady Last Breath guiding Goblin Craftsman to create a Submarine.

Will think of more after the Rum Takes effect.


M Goblin Druid 7

Level 7 and fast forward sounds good to me. What do you want me to do with all of the unidentified magic items? I've kept track on my character sheet or does it really matter since we are all about to fast forward?

2. The Fleet: We have 3 or 4 boats and an army of goblins, orcs and other races. "We also need a human or elf to lord over if it's a ratty one..."
3. Into The Volcano: We have found a treasure map to the island of dragon-y death. We refused to look at the words though, so all we saw is the big picture of a mound of diamonds! I like it
4. For Zogmugot!: We have established a temple to zogmugot and draw goblins to use from all around. Preferrably in a temple to a goodly god who is none too happy... maybe a return of the group of heroes that tried to stop us before
5. Hmmm... that didn't go well: We have been captured by the elf, the dwarf and the shiny man. Because we were all very, very drunk after seizing a ship full of rum. We can't escape until we've figured out how to steal the elf... even as the gallows are being built. Somewhat in line with what I saw before this will give Whosi another chance at his elf woman
6. A Whole New World: We have a big trauma when we try to group-hug a dryad as she disappears into her tree, now we're all in the first-world, rocking the fey-creature template and surrounded by singing tree, bubblegum flowers and grass so sharp it strips flesh. I love the carnage chaos that this would bring

Any other ideas?

Splurg will spend his time raising his baby pteradon and Spots of course. While studying any animal he finds to learn to turn into them.... and continue dreaming about having a goblin kingdom to call his own.


Male Goblin Barbarian (Invulnerable Rager) 7

OMB, which scenarios would set us up best for your plans?


Male Goblin Cleric Level 7

I have an odd question, I know it is wierd at this point in time in the game. but were the goblins made on 15 points or 20 points.


Male Goblin Barbarian (Invulnerable Rager) 7

15points


Bonekeep Slides

Honestly, any of the scenarios would work. When I plot out adventures in my head, I generally only have a starting point and an ending point. And in this case, just about any starting point will do. So, please pick the one that you guys like the best and we'll go from there.


M Goblin Druid 7

I like #2 and #3 with a reapperance of "The Heroes" on the island since they heard about it too...


Male Goblin Barbarian (Invulnerable Rager) 7

I like the Volcano idea, and Splurg could find more pteradons there.


Male Goblin Cleric Level 7

the volcano idea works


Bonekeep Slides

Okay, so the volcano gets a nod of approval with a dash of The Heroes. Okay, let me go ahead and write up a Time Passes post. Go ahead and level up to 7th level and we'll start there.


M Goblin Druid 7

I leveled up but still need to add my feats and spells will do that when I get a chance. How do you want to handle equipment including the stuff we have waiting to be id'ed.


Bonekeep Slides

Do you have a list of stuff to be ID'd? I'll go ahead and tell you what it is. As for other gear, each of you give me a wishlist of something you'd like that costs 7,000 gp or less. I'll give you the go/no go on each.


M Goblin Druid 7

1 potion, bracers of armor, medium shiny full plate, medium mithril shirt, medium shiny longsword, small longsword, and medium light xbow cutlass and pistol


Bonekeep Slides

Alright, here we go!

-Potion = Cure Moderate Wounds potion
-Bracers of Armor +3 (Light Fortification)
- Medium Mithral +2 Full Plate
- Medium +1 Mithral Ghost Touch Shirt
- Medium +1 Holy Longsword
- Small +1 Flaming LOngsword
- Medium +2 Light Crossbow
- Medium +1 Wounding Cutlass
- Medium +1 Unholy Pistol


Male Goblin Cleric Level 7

someone needs to get the Goblin Gunslinger Feat so we can use the unholy "cannon" with out a penalty.


Male Goblin Barbarian (Invulnerable Rager) 7

A combat-trained dire-bat costs about 450gp.

Would it be possible to drop 800gp for a trained pteradon mount?

+1 greataxe 2320
+1 furious greataxe 8320
+2 agile breastplate 4550
gloves of swimming and climbing 6250
heward's handy haversack 2000
steadfast grapple 5000
spirit tear 1800
ring of the savage beast 8000
ring of swimming 2500
cloak of resistance +2 4000
boots of striding and springing 5500
great barghest hero cloak 2800


M Goblin Druid 7

Hey Crang, as a Druid with Spots I took Handle Animal, I have enough skill(4) in it to be able to train them within 2 years.


Bonekeep Slides

Trained pteranodons are easily found. Unfortunately, Splurg's baby turns out not be a pteranodon, but a yrthak. Given its age, it's a relatively young specimen after two years, only large size, but still very trainable.

Also, Crang, is that your list of things you own or things you want?


Dwarf

so no exploding mountains yet from his sonic lance :( would have made easy work of the volcano!


Male Goblin Barbarian (Invulnerable Rager) 7

OMB, they're things I want.

In terms of what he has, Crang is currently rocking...
Amulet of NA +1
Belt of Giant Strength +2
Armoured Coat +2
Pteradon-skull hat with a ruby in one eye socket

I still have the +1 Ghost-Touch Studded Leather on my sheet but I think I've given it to Whosi.


Bonekeep Slides

Okay, I'll ponder and put up the next chapter on Monday. I'm thinking it will be a bit long...


Male Goblin Barbarian (Invulnerable Rager) 7

If I can get the pteradon then some kind of amulet of mighty fists might come in handy.
