[PFS - PbP] PF Module - Master of the Fallen Fortress (Inactive)

Game Master DFang

Discussion tab is now open.
Also, we'll also be using Google Draw as map tool.

Ashen got her name from her skin. More pale than her fellow Emberkin. Grayish white, the young girl looks like a ghost. She wears equally light and faded clothing including a half mask shaped like a skull, with black dreads. Hooded almost all the time. Her face and body has a few tattoos across it. One seems to move every now and then, that of a scorpion. She carries around a short spear made of Cold iron and a light crossbow. Other than that, she seems very plain and forgetful 

Tam is short and skinny, but very wiry. Her skin is tanned from regular excursions outdoors. When you first meet her at the Lodge, she has her red hair in pigtails on the sides of her head, but today, as everyone is about to adventure, she wears her hair in a pair of braids and a pair of goggles are perched on her head. Also, she has replaced the simple, white, loose tunic and breeches with a suit of scale mail, and she carries a longspear.

Two things haven't changed in her outfit. First, both times, she wears a belt of thick, billowing material, a deep purple scarf wrapped about her midsection. Second, she has a prominent birthmark, a ragged purple circle around her left eye.

Brand is a wiry elf, standing a hands-width below six feet tall. His leather armor conforms to his less than imposing physical nature. Red baubles attached to the studs of his armor bounce around continuously, as he fidgets around, shifts from side to side, or is always in motion, even when standing still. Arrows in a quiver at his side quietly clink as he jostles.

Shoulder length red hair falls down messily, slightly obscuring the handle of the morningstar sticking out of his backpack. A longbow sits over his shoulder and a dagger is sheathed at his waist.

Grass stains mar Brand's pants at the knees, and dust covers his boots. Dirt is found in the pores of his face, darkening his normally lightened skin tone and enhancing the brilliance of bright blue eyes.

How do I access the map? Also, thanks for inviting me, this will be my first PFS PbP experience, so feel free to use constructive criticism.

@Brand: I will put up the link later in this thread once everyone is ready. It will be found at the top portion of this thread.

Isabella moves with a solid purpose, every step right where she wants it. Her black hair is cut short and she wears a studded leather outfit. On her belt she wears a slightly curved long blade, the grip of the blade once was pristine white leather, but has been stained with sweat and blood.

Copper & Elsabeth - I need you to make the stats available on the quick info bar beneath your alias. Look to other's posts for an example.

Done! Let me know if there's anything more you need in the line.

Thanks :)

Thanks for the heads up Isabella, I have to admit that I haven't gone to read Advanced Classes thoroughly yet, too swamped with work & school

No problem GM, glad to be of assistance.

Silly Brand, Webs are for spiders!

I'm assuming I'm on 'waiting' until after the surprise round?

also, fun description of getting attacked =)

What creature would suddenly shoot a web though...?

Da-na-na, Da-na-na

Oh I dunno... maybe Spiderman is hiding up there. You guys can't see the creature yet. :)

I plan to use 8AM my time (GMT+8) as the regular time reference to call non-moving characters as delaying their turn during combat. That's starting tomorrow.

I hope that's alright with you guys.

Good to know. I am gmt+2 =^^=

I'm at GMT-8. You're on the other side of the world from me Fang! =D

And I am GMT+1

Lol I know. Which is why I dont have a home group since I cant find any other Pathfinders. Anyway my posting this weekend will be scarse

Oops mispelled that one... and I cant edit thru this app :/

Can ashen get close for a touch attack?

You won't reach inside the room to do so unless you do a double move, which will provoke BTW since grapple is broken.

-Posted with Wayfinder

Okay nvm then :P will just move so I can see the spider

Sorry! I was out for the weekend, didn't get a chance to post it. I'm GMT -5.

It's fine, everyone seems to be missing the spider recently so you can still take part of the action . :)

[Annoyed]Heh! I did not miss![/Annoyed]

;-)

You're the only exemption Isabella... so far at least. :)

I know, setting myself up for a biting remark from Elsabeth when Isabella misses...

Join the club Isabella... the club misses you.

I'm waiting on being prompted to act. =)

"I can understand that the club misses my slashing wit! Having Elsabeth as a member is a bit pointless, don't you think?"

Tremendous silence...

"Ah, well. I guess you need to get used to my sense of humor"

Dont you mean Sharp sense of humour? It had me on the edge of my seat with laughter

I mean no harm, and I think it adds flavor given the right situation, but if you guys don't want me posting random rolls like I just did, let me know OK?

Sounds and looks interesting ;)

I won't describe what actually happened on that roll just in case someone reads through, so I'll leave it to Tam & Isabella to react if they wish.

To be honest, I think Brand's the one who should describe what happens--are we really taking agency away from our characters that way?

Well, it was accidental, so it could be anything. I'm also not sure to what extent we can describe stuff like that in Paizo's messageboards.

But you didn't roll to see if I accidentally touched Brand. Or Isabella. Or does Brand have a "Wandering Hands" Oracle Curse?

Nope, this is just a bad idea all around. Let's not go there.

I thought it was funny, but I have to agree with Tam's player. Sexual themes can add a dynamic to a game, but for some it makes the game uncomfortable. Those themes are best left for games where all the players agree to it beforehand.

Had a player at a PFS table once be accused of groping an NPC. It was funny, and he rolled with it to make for an entertaining role-playing session, but he almost tried to argue with the DM saying that his PC wasn't an assaulter.

In this case, its accidental, and could lead to Brand being embarrassed, but I don't think everyomes on board for it. I wouldn't in mind having him trip into someone though.

Alright, moving on. :)

May I request for everyone posting to move their tokens on the map whenever applicable please? If you can't modify (e.g. posting via mobile phone), just put a note in OOC on how we can move it for you.

I don't want to keep assuming positions... The map is not limited to combat situations, and it would help me decide how triggered events will affect your PCs.

Thanks!
GM

Just a reminder, move your tokens to the second floor according to your actions per post, whenever applicable. You may want to discuss formation and single file sequence in the Discussion thread.

I have moved Brand and Ashen to the second level.

Regarding formation / single file sequence: Isabella is likely to be at the front, in first or second place.

Back home! =)

Sorry for my absence! My weekend and work backlog ate up my time.

No worries, the team is still pondering what to do with the lizard in the other room.

@Ashen: you made a good point though. Perhaps expectation of OOC content is something that could be added to my PbP rules on future runs. I'll think about it.

No problem :) Atleast she wasnt electricuted

No (lethal) harm done and this way we keep on moving.

@Isabella:

Oh, right... the second attack roll X)
Thanks for that. You still hit though, but your next attack will miss.

A bit busy with house renovations. Sorry. After weekend I'll be free a bit more. You may bot her for now.
