[PFS_CORE_Aerondor] 00-03 - Murder on the Silken Caravan [Tier 1-2] PbP Gameday 4: (Inactive)

Game Master Aerondor

To make my life easier when it comes to filling in chronicles, if you could each put in a single post with:

If you are currently in a game or expect to apply a GM chronicle before play, hold off putting in the information.

Chronicle: What chronicle number this is for the character
History: What scenarios has the character completed? (or been credited with); any other chronicles (special boons etc)
Name:(the player) real name (as you have it appear on your chronicle sheets)
AKA: Character name
Faction: Your faction
PFS: # for the character
XP: starting XP,
Prestige: Starting prestige
Fame: Starting Fame
Gold: Starting wealth you bring into the adventure. This should be the total on your previous chronicle. If you want to buy any new stuff... see further on.
Day job: include the roll or that you don't have one. If you want to use a reroll at the end just note here you may want to use a reroll. If you don't include a roll I'll be assuming you take ten.
Spend: If you want to buy anything before the scenario starts (apart from your initial 150gp if you are a new character) include it here. This will appear in the "items bought" and/or "items sold" part of the chronicle.

Try to hold off actual discussion here until we have one post per character with those details (makes life easy for me to make the chronicles for you all at the end).

I had to change my weapon focus from Bastard Sword to Great sword. I was trying to wield a Large Bastard Sword in two hands but did some research and found that it is impossible without Exotic Weapon Proficiency: Bastard Sword and I do not want to spend a feat for 2 more top end damage. I will correct my character and purchases.

I won't be able to post my details until tonight, but considering the characters I linked earlier what would people want me to bring?

Well, we have a barbarian, a grappling druid, a Caydenite cleric and two paladins, so we have melee and divine covered (though Pimwrick is more ranged-focused, but it's not much of a difference at this level).

So your bard would probably be the best fit, but it might be fun to have a three-paladin party too!

I am also playing with a ranger 2 (archer)

Kevan is an attempt at a core reach cleric, so he can melee a fair bit too.

For low level scenarios balance doesn't matter quite so much. Bard would be fine

More people will enjoy the buffs that way, too ;-)

Chronicle: #7
History: MotFF, #6-10, First Steps, Emerald Spire #1, Land Rush Chronicle, #5-11
Name: Eric Bennett
AKA: Giovanni
Faction: Sovereign Court
PFS ID#: 66548-25
XP: 7
Prestige/Fame: 3/9
Gold: 683gp, 3sp
Day job: Perform (wind): 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (10) + 9 = 19
If I haven't used my reroll during the scenario then it'd be 5 Star Reroll: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (17) + 14 = 31

Wow, three musicians, all with wind instruments. A travelling show!

Harmonica, cool! Mine's just a flute. What's the other instrument?

Miriel plays the flute, and Pimwrick the harmonica. I have never heard the two instruments together, but apparently they can do some interesting things: a bit of classical or some rollicking Irish!

I like the second one better, but the first may be more fitting for a funeral.

This is lovely.

As she worships the goddess of art, for Miriel it is more than she can handle.

I wonder if we can anger the NPC:s with music? Would be the first time.

There was an error on skills. I had copied another character's sheet as a base for Miriel, and it had Perform(dance) +2. Now correctly Perform(wind) +3.

I would like to buy some arrows for my bow, 2 daggers and a sling with some stones.

That is fine.

40 arrows (2 gp), 2 daggers (4 gp) and a sling with 20 stones (2 sp)
Total of 6 gp 2 sp

@Giovanni, if it were a MW tool for a skill check I'd be happy with it. But this is not a skill check, this is a Fortitude save (albeit a limited type of one). In a home game, I'd be happy to do this (but in a home game, I'd be happy to let you get +5 from hot weather clothes). As this is PFS Core it is outside the permitted scope.

Sure thing =)

As a heads up, tomorrow is Thanksgiving in the USA. Posting may be sporadic for the next two days.

Sorry guys, yeah I'm away for Thanksgiving. I'll probably still be able to post each day late in the evening, but that may be it.

This is the last encounter anyway. The Big Fight, so no need to hurry. You guys have rocked through this scenario really fast. To be fair it is really just four stand-up fights in a row.

I want to thank GM Aerandor for making 4 straight up fights into a entertaining scenario. I have taken a few notes about how you run your games and added it to my game I am currently running. This has been one of the best groups I have run with in PFS. Thanks everyone and have a good Thanksgiving.

This has been quick, and fun! I agree, for a random group of people assembled by the interwebz, this has been an especially good one. Nice work, GM!

You haven't survived it yet!

And I appreciate the thanks, it is much appreciated. The group I was initially running the standard table of this for is still back in the first fight with the goblins. So you guys have been really rocking the pace.

Enjoy thanksgiving.

By the way, 07-10 a new tier 1-2 scenario launched today. I'll be running that, so any of you who want to sign up. It is available

here

I thought it came out today! I checked earlier and it just said "Unavailable". I'll probably be running it this weekend, but I'd love to play. Already posted in the other thread.

Love to play the 07-10 if there is room.

Post away in the thread, we are all but done here, unless Gaspar suddenly gets very lucky, which doesn't seem likely.

What's your guess as to when the Core run of the new scenario would finish? I"m going off the grid on December 17, and I'm not sure we'd be done by then.

I'm not too sure to be honest. If everyone posts as fast as in this game it may be a similar length. But it is less up front battles.

Plus, I'm betting everyone has played this scenario in Classic mode before, which probably made for less time making decisions. A brand new scenario will probably have some extra time required for the first run, for everyone.

Almost forgot boon rolls!

GM: 1d20 ⇒ 19
Pim: 1d20 ⇒ 11
Meredith: 1d20 ⇒ 6
Miriel: 1d20 ⇒ 17
Calvin: 1d20 ⇒ 19
Kevan: 1d20 ⇒ 10
Giovanni: 1d20 ⇒ 9

My poor rolling continues. No boons sorry.

You lost your bet. I have never run the classic one. I am preferring PbP games in those scenarios that everyone else around my area has run, but I haven't. I had heard a lot of this scenario, so had to try it.

Okay Chronicles have been uploaded. Link above, or if you don't want to scroll:

Chronicles

As normal, let me know if I got something wrong, I'll try to fix it.

I'll be doing the GD reporting tonight, GD games sometimes take a bit of time to show up in your credit list.

I'd prefer the totals blank.

I'll likely buy stuff after the game.

Thanks again, GM! Sorry to be absent at the wrap-up. I hate to miss another game with this group, but I think I should skip the evergreen game you all are doing, as I'm likely to have to bail on it part-way through.

May our paths cross again!

New chronicle with items bought and grand total blanked out for Giovanni.

@ GM Aerondor - I bought a spear as well during the adventure. I posted it in the Gameplay thread instead of the Discussion thread that is why you may have missed it. I also bought all of my starting gear. Can you give me blank one like Giovanni please.

Thanks for the game, GM! Looking forward to the new evergreen!

If Calvin is moving over to the ever green, just put the items in the discussion and I'll add to that chronicle sheet.

Will do

GM - would you mind marking this campaign inactive, so it drops off our Campaigns tabs? Thanks.
