(PFS) GM Alice's The Blakros Matrimony (Inactive)

Game Master Alice Margatroid

Starting early next month is the first official PbP game "day", where a bunch of groups are starting PFS PbPs at the same time, there will be boons given out, and all sorts of fun things.

I will be running The Blakros Matrimony, one of my favourites. Taken from the product description:

The eldest daughter of the prominent Blakros family is set to wed an influential Hellknight, and the Pathfinder Society is invited to the festivities. Dressed for a wedding befitting royalty, a team of Pathfinders attend the ceremony on behalf of the Decemvirate, but will their presence ultimately strengthen the Society's relationship with the influential Blakroses, or will events at the wedding bring the already tenuous alliance to a breaking point?

Come prepared for social interaction, but don't forget your blade either! Put your roleplaying caps on and you'll have a great time! This module is the perfect scenario for high Charisma sorts, as well as anyone who loves to get thoroughly in character.

You'll need to sign up on the Warhorn page here, but you can ask me any questions here as well. Look for the one run by Shimapanda :)

Hey GM, just signed up for your game. This is the alias I will be running in the scenario.

Oh, hi Shel! I was Sigrun in a game you recently played. Nice to see you. Hope you'll enjoy the game!

Awesome! Great to see you again!

Just finished signing up with my Samurai (Sword Saint)

Hi Mifune, is your character profile out of date? I only ask because this is a Tier 3-7 and so your character cannot legally play in it at level 2.

EDIT: Noticed your Warhorn sign up says Samurai 5, that's much better :) You'll need to get that profile updated before we play. (You've got a couple of weeks to do so though!)

Last couple of games have all been meetups so I hadn't even realized that my profile here was so out-of-date o_o

I'll get that fixed sometime soon though!

Hi Alice - just signed up for this game. I recently played through Feral's Rivalry's End with you as a player (I played Ezren the Pregenerated), am looking forward to this game too. Terrill just hit 3rd level, so I'll have to update his profile.

Yay, hi there Terrill! Man, that was quick - I was worried I wouldn't fill a table at all. ;) Now we've got 4, definitely enough to run! Woot.

Looking forward to October 5. :)

I'm new to this whole pbp thing. also to warhorn. Registering is a bit confusing- I only see two games of blackros matrimony, one has 4/6 the other has 0/6. But they don't say GM Alice...

You're actually supposed to be looking for the one being run by "Shimapanda" :)

Yep, as Mifune said! I was slightly dumb and just put in the username I usually sign up to places with and didn't think that I should PROBABLY put my Paizo boards name in. ;)

To all that are applying: I hope you guys are okay with a daily or so posting rate. I tend to go ahead at that kind of clop.

Also, what are people's thoughts about using Roll20 for the eventual maps? Using Google docs? A static image I update? Which is easiest for you?

Im not a huge fan of roll20. I'd prefer google docs or some other mechanism.

I agree about Roll20, it's not my favorite. I like Google docs.

Hi there Shimpanda/GM Alice, I've just signed up for the last slot with my elven oracle (ancient lorekeeper). I'm currently in a PbP game, but it's nearly at an end (it will definitely be over by October 5th).

I have no opinion about roll20, but I've never used it so far. Google docs is fine by me.

Woot, a full table! Thanks everyone! :) Just a few days ago it was looking pretty empty...

Looks like we'll be playing the 3-4 tier. Looking forward to it!

I will probably use Google Docs at the behest of those above me. I've never used it as a GM before, so it may be a little bit of a learning process, but maps won't matter for quite some time into this scenario. I'm not lying when I say that it's roleplay-heavy! ^_^

I'm debating spending the PP to buy the Hellknight title...it'd at least make for some nice way to get some information.

And profile is now updated.

Terrill is now updated also. First time I've reached 3rd level with an inquisitor - looks like fun!

@Mifune - where are you seeing the option to spend 2 PP for a title? Not that Terrill's the title type, just wondering if there's a resource I should be taking a look at. I don't see it in the most recent Guide to Pathfinder Society Organized Play.

I just took a peek at the Warhorn sign-ups, and we seem to have a pretty good spread of classes/roles:

Wizard 4
Rogue 3 (actually Rog 1/Rgr 2, it seems)
Samurai 5
Inquisitor 3
Rogue 4
Oracle 5

Arcane and divine, a good dash of melee, no shortage of skills. It even looks - at a quick glance through some of the aliases - like we have some knowledge skills and a bit of Charisma. What could possibly go wrong?

Thanks for doing that, guys. I generally do a quick check-over of everyone's sheets before the game just to catch any errors or odd rules I don't know about, just as a heads up.

Also, please make sure your PFS Number is on your profile somewhere so that I can easily find it. I prefer to have "vital stats" put in your class box as appropriate (Like how I've got it here) but it's not necessary.

The title is from the Pathfinder Society Field Guide :)

Don't worry, Alice. Kynrac is in my Severed Ties game on here. We will hopefully be done in the next few days. ^_^

Aye, almost done! I'll have to update the sheet after that, though, because this scenario will make me reach level 5.

Terrill is now updated also. First time I've reached 3rd level with an inquisitor - looks like fun!

Yea, even though Shel has more ranger levels than rogue, she is still played more of sneaky rogue skills focused type.

That's good to know, Aeshuura. :)

I made a discussion thread if you'd prefer to move the pre-game discussion there, since we're not exactly "recruiting" anymore.
