Hey guys, Faelyn here. I've got the Cartomancer archetype info in my character sheet if you'd like to look over it. I'm holding off on equipment until I know for sure the GMs are okay with the archetype.
I am htting level 3 bladebound Magus, How would the blackblades purpose be handled with this setting?
(Crap I posted that to the wrong section)
I'm finding myself fairly busy at the moment, is someone out there willing to take over maintaining the waiting list for me, at least for a while? I'm willing to work something out where we let the volunteer bank a level like a first time GM.
Although can you give special permissions to other accounts to edit the Campaign Tab?
Nope. I think you need to pm the webmaster and ask them to swap you as the DM for this campaign.
Then, I'm not sure how I could help maintain the list beyond posting updated lists in Discussion Thread or Recruitment Thread.
How about this: make an alias and update that with the list on it, and I'll link to it in the campaign tab as the temporary list?
Something kind of like this?
Awesome. Linking to it now.
All you have to do is verify that they're a paizo class if they're a new character, and then add anyone to the list who asks.
Thanks a bunch. This'll take the pressure off.
Edit: I added your banked level as well.
It's no problem. I tend to be on the boards quite frequently throughout the weekdays and I'll make sure to check in now and then on the weekends.
Edit: And thank you for the level. I've been contemplating GM'ing as well. I've ran some games for Pathfinder Society and I think I could handle a single encounter. I'll just have to start putting some thought into it.
How are we treating learning formulae/spells from each other? Magic is stated to not be widely available, so I suggest we have to copy off each other rather than from some NPC wizard's spellbook or scrolls. Though we can still learn spells from scrolls we found in an adventure.
Essentially: "I'll let you learn this spell from me if you let me learn this from you" and "pay me $$$ and I'll let you learn this".
Though it could be that every single spell is also available via independent research, if you pay for it, but that's expensive (1000 gp per level of spell?!).
This also opens up selling actual spellbooks! If one wanted to do that for some reason.
"The cost to scribe a spell into your book is the level of the spell squared, multiplied by 10." (Note: A 0th spell is 5 gp.)
"In most cases, wizards charge a fee for the privilege of copying spells from their spellbooks. This fee is usually equal to half the cost to write the spell into a spellbook (additional 50%). Rare and unique spells might cost significantly more."
I'm also interested in running a game sometime, though no promises with my schedule, especially since it would be my first time in the PBP format. I have an idea for almost-naked combat that involves what would normally be an easy battle . . . if not for the fact that the party is almost-naked and woefully underprepared. (In effect, you can only have one single item with you, aside from your underclothings, and all ability uses are 1/3 rounded down. This includes spells, domain abilities, etc. So if you usually have 6 1st level spells and 2/day uses of "Performance", you'll only be able to use 2 1st level spells and 0 uses of "Performance" for this encounter.)
The main thing I'm wondering how to do here is on how to decide rewards for the adventure (i.e. picking out loot/gold and distributing it to the party).
Any word on the Cartomancer archetype guys?
I will be ready to run an encounter in a day or so as I have one almost ready. I can take the next 5-6 people in the list through the event. I haven't ever run a PBP episode, but I have GMed for ~30 years, including all versions of D&D and PF (along with a slew of other games).
If no one else jumps in before then, I will proceed with the following group:
1. Severn Morcant
2. Akoril
3. Riggar
4. Erlic Rondelmeyer
5. Hank the Miller
6. Bob Slash
Any comments, questions or concerns, feel free to post or message me.
Bob's body is ready. Again.
I am in, just let me know where to go link wise :)
Head on over here to start the fun. The Curse of Green River Dale.
Again, for the following participants on the waiting list.
1. Severn Morcant
2. Akoril
3. Riggar
4. Erlic Rondelmeyer
5. Hank the Miller
6. Bob Slash
Once everyone has checked in, we can begin. If we don't have everyone checked in by mid-day Tuesday CDT, I will move down the waiting list.

What source is the cartomancer from? I didn't see it on the site. It didn't seem overtly powerful at first glance, but I am not the principal GM for this.

Perhaps its secret mission is to participate in a bunch of random unrelated encounters ;)
In theory you could choose something reasonable and the various GMs could try to work it into their adventures as they feel like it?
I suspect as people level there may be other similar situations eventually.
Just my opinion though.

It's from The Harrow Handbook from Paizo, just released last month. So I'm not sure when it will show up on the pfsrd or Nethys.

I guess it seems fine to me if its official Paizo, the only thing that is tricky, is if no one else has access to the material to reference as needed.
I would like to bring up the question of what we would like to do regarding players not showing up for games? Do we leave them on the list at the front? Do we move them to the end of the list? Do we remove them from the list? Should we implement a three strike rule?
I checked in, sorry about the delay, I was out of town for the weekend.
Glad to hear it Akoril.
The list has been updated. We have five players currently waiting.
That's a good point Twilsemail. Perhaps having anyone that is removed from the list notified so that way they are aware of it.

Hmmm... good point. If the current GMs feel a little weary about that, I can always submit another character until the archetype starts making its appearance on either the pfsrd or Nethys!
What are the restrictions on multiple PCs?
I'm not 100% sure. I think for the most part it is largely discouraged so that people can cycle through the list more. I would say a good rule would be you can have as many characters as you want, but only one can be in an adventure or on the list at any time unless the waiting list is down to no one, or a group needs another PC.

I would say that's a safe bet until the other GMs can weigh in on it.

Agreed! Putting the finishing touches up on a Zen Archer... Always wanted to try one out as I think they look like fun!

I hadn't started adding the Harrow Handbook yet, but saw that you needed a reference for this. It's been just over 2 weeks since the book's street date (the time I need to wait before I can add things to my site), so I went ahead and added the Cartomancer archetype, along with everything else on page 15. I'll likely crank through the rest of the book later today or tomorrow.

Everything from page 15 (and the entire book, so far)

Thanks Nethys! Much appreciated good sir.
Yeah, Nethys is a good guy. I know I've bothered him about some features for the site and he's gotten them up fairly quickly after I brought them up.
For those who didn't notice because I retired to game: I called Golden Maggots due to player attrition. Everyone gains the level but that's it, because it wasn't able to be completed.
When you say you retired, are you no longer heading the encounters threads as a GM or did I read that wrong?
My Encounter is complete. I will bank a level.
Running another encounter soon might be a challenge though, I am doing a destination half marathon, going camping with questionable cell reception for a whole week, and closing on a house ( and packing/moving ) in the next 2-3 weeks.
well enjoy everything, and congrats on the new house :)
I've got most of a scenario mapped out. The only problem I'm facing is the actual map.
Have you tried Dungeonographer or Hexographer? They each have a free version that works pretty well. Runs in Java so it should run on any OS.
Most of my issue is that I've only got a work computer (so no adding programs) and a phone to post from. I'll likely wind up using Paint and an image hosting site.
You can actually run them online. Check out the links I sent.
Can I take the feat extra rogue talent to get a new ninja trick? Seeing as how basically ninja tricks are like rogue talents?

I don't see why not. The round-about way to get around it would seem to be: take the extra rogue talent feat, then take the rogue talent: ninja trick to pick the trick you want.
Since there's no "Extra Ninja Trick" feat for some reason, I don't have any issue with it. After all, Ninja's just an alternate class - a super-fleshed-out Rogue Archetype. They can even take (I think) two Rogue Archetypes!
@Everyone: I have a small amount of free time opening up in my schedule - enough to run a quick encounter. I'm working up something for Level 1-2 characters and should be good to go this evening.

Awesome! I'll try to keep an eye out so I can check in. I won't be able to post Saturday though, it's my son's 1st birthday party.... so I'll be busy all day lol.
A new encounter is up! Will the following PCs please head Here
1. Raed Ironfist of Justice
2. Xarol Hopa
3. Aeron Stillwater
4. Yvanesh
5. Brimle
I couldn't find anything in the rules about the amount of poison produced when I craft it. Should I assume it's all one use or could I possibly use one for both my short swords? I feel like I could be frugal.
Each time you craft, it produces a single dose.
So I know that we are allowed to change our character however we like before our first game and that we can make tweaks to them after said game has finished, but what do poeple think about using the retraining rules?
I know that I've grown unattached to my witch and would very much prefer a wizard. Retraining rules would give us the chance to switch up our characters if we find that we don't care for them anymore. Of course, you need to meet the prerequisites to do such though. For instance, I would need to find a 3rd level Wizard at this point.
I would think that, until they see the next game, a character's most recent is fluid.
Also, given the nature of the game, I can't see any reason to disallow retraining if you can find a trainer.
