[PFS_Aerondor] 06-01 Trial by Machine - Table 1 (Inactive)

Game Master Aerondor

Idle Pathfinders are Pathfinders needing work. Having a bit of downtime is no excuse to
sit around and let our skills lapse! So I have come up with a training exercise for you and a
few others waiting around the Grand Lodge for a job. I trust you are familiar with the Red
Redoubt? If not, for shame! It’s an important part of Absalom’s history. You might want to
spend a few minutes researching it before heading out. While it is technically a “cleared” ruin,
it’s a perfect location to test your skills.
Another team has spent the last few days practicing their own dungeoneering skills by
establishing an obstacle course in the Redoubt’s upper levels. Now it’s up to you to go and see
how well they’ve done. The course follows a specific path—if you come across a symbol of three
red dots inside a triangle, that means “do not enter.” Don’t go wandering—I do not want to
send a third team to find you if you get lost. Otherwise, your response to the challenge is up
to you. Bring your own gear, make your own plans, solve the puzzles, and bypass the traps.
You’ll know when you reach the finish line. I’d wish you good luck, but skilled Pathfinders
don’t need luck.
I trust you’ll impress us,
Venture-Captain Ambrus Valsin

...is this meant to be an open recruitment thread? If so, I have a 4th level Arcanist who would definitely be interested in participating :-)

My first level Magus is very interesting in joining your group.

Very much joining :).
Lvl 4, possibly 5 now, alchemist is up for this. Could also bring in several low lvl characters like paladin archer and druid

Count me in!
Possible characters:
5331-10 Zymir - Half-elf, Oracle of Lore 2
5331-12 Iron Man - Human, Fighter 1/ Magus 4
5331-15 Claynak - Oread, Fighter 1

I would be interested in joining. I have several characters in this level range. And would use one to fill out the roles as needed.

If possible I might be interested to join, too.
What level range?

I'd like to join please

Tarquin at your service, finishing off another game right now, but should be done before we start :). He's level 5 at this moment.

I have a level level 3 Summoner, level 1 Sanctified Slayer, or level 1 Support Bard. Summoner could play up to the 4-5 if you are going to run that sub-tier.

This is my lvl 1 monk who'd love to play... all his info is in his profile.

Definitely interested in this game, would play with Rayna here. I'll get her stats posted today.

Edit: stats updated. :)

Here's a level one swashbuckler for consideration.

Just in case there's room ... I have a couple of characters I could bring to this as well (lvl 2 fighter or a lvl 5 druid)

I have either a level 4 summoner or a level 2 bloodrager that I would like to use. I'll use whichever one fits the tier.

At this point I will forward my name in case there is a second table. Have a couple of characters.

Possible characters:

Table 1
Luke_Parry - 4th level arcanist
Jolly Rodger - 5th level alchemist
Ironman - level 5 fighter/magus
Tarquin - alchemist 4
Caith - druid 5
Hroth - summoner 4
Discussion thread for table 1

Table 2
Dolres 1st level Magus
Tytus - investigator 1
Zuriel - bloodrager 1
Kenji - monk 1
Discussion thread for table 2

Table 3
Rayna - bloodrager 1
Luciano - swashbuckler 1
DaWay - TBD
Merk - TBD
Nightfield - summoner 3
Discussion thread for table 3

I've tried to fit in the highest level character (as folk seem to prefer playing those). We could squeeze in another couple of low level characters if they come up.

Note, I've got a real life, so doing three tables of this may be a bit of a stretch for me (especially as I have some other games going on as both DM and player) I'm (most days) a once a day poster at the moment. Having not played or DMed this before I'm not too sure how long it will take. I get a feeling it could be reasonably quick, or may bog down if folk have difficulty with an area or two.

Important note
Characters must use the new Factions. And everyone gets a free faction change as this is the start of season 6 (yay!) and lots of factions of changed (maybe less ya)

Also (less important but interesting) there is particular advantage to being in the Silver Crusade in this scenario if you really can't make up your mind.

GM Aerondar, you are awesome for doing this!

Nightfiend, bring Tatiana with Dolres and me! Then I'm 3 for 3 with Zuriel and you! ;-)

Wow, running three tables? That's really awesome GM Aerondor.

Well, shows a complete disregard for my family. Things may go slow, this is your fair warning

I will post my stats this evening when I get home.

I would be intersted in joining if you have room for level 3 (2 cav / 1 cleric).

IF Nightfield wants to join folk he knows on table2 then Chief, we can fit you into table 3.

I would love to switch to table 2 seeing I have played with Zuriel a few times. Thanks for the option. I will bring either mu support bard or the Sanctified Slayer.

Which ever character you would like.

Discussion threads are open for each table - I'd like your PFS information in the first post in each please.

I am Jollys alchemist :)

Okay

Table 1:
Still waiting for PFS detail posts in the discussion thread for
Tarquin-rk (jollys alchemist!)
Lukes arcanist
- So you'll be a table of 5

Table 2:
Still waiting for PFS details for
Tytus
-Another table of 5

Table 3:
-all set to go as Merk had to pull out
-Table of 4.

can you play it more than once? Because we play it next week at our group.

Nope.

Only first steps and The Confirmation at the moment are able to be played more than once. Essentially if it is a tier1 module only you can replay - but there are not many of them!

That makes it look like table 2 is a table for four as well. That is fine.

In this case I have to bow out!
BUT I wish all the others just the best.

Would you be willing to take a replacement for one of your tables, GM?

We just lost one on table 2. I was going to run a bard, but i'm considering switching to a tankier character. If Gm allows the change, we could use a bard on table 2.

I'm open to an employ spot being filled prior to the start of the game. Either tables 2 or 3 are running with four at the moment, so if you have a level 1-3 character, professor, you would be welcome.

I'll take that spot... if it's still available.

I'll take a spot at table 2.

Okay Proff - go off to table 2 and put a post in the discussion thread with your details (have a look at the format) and then intro youself in the game thread.

Kaz, may as well move over to table 3 for you, gives us a little extra leeway if there are any drops later on - and saves me running a pre-gen.

I think that takes us back up to three tables of 5.

I have a level 4 Oracle of life if you want to make a table of six for your upper tier game. Healer/Buffer/Secondary Frontliner. Just finished up a pbp game with him.

@GM Aerondor - Are you capping off Tables 2/3 @ 5 or is there still a chance for a level 1 illusionist to pop in?

The more the merrier until they get down there.
Hawk run off to table 1 and put in the discussion thread (and post in the game thread)
Velinov head off to table 3 and put your info into the discussion thread (and post in the game thread)

I think that fills up all the tables.

Anyone for a fifth or sixth table table :-) Would love to try out my level 1 Slayer need a home
