Just so you know, on Saturday, I'll be working from late morning to early afternoon. And on Sunday, I'll be spending the day with my family. So posting may be sporadic since I'll be dependent on my phone.
Okay, so remember that idea to add NPCs for Aerodus's marriage contracts? Well, it's been around 2 months. And here is the thread I started. I got a good deal of applicants and a lot of good ideas.
Just to let you know, I have a work shift from this morning to mid afternoon. So no posting in that time.
I think we're waiting on you, GM.
Jirani's action was that he was going to watch the prisoner, and Andando tried to stab the half-orc.
However, Andando didn't update his spot on the map.
Sorry for the delay, I will get a solid update tomorrow after a read through of the action. Glad to be back.
Just so you guys know, I'll be working from the morning to around mid afternoon tomorrow.
Anyone have any objections to me feeding Lamm to his own gator?
Nope, alive I hope, right?
Well, that was my plan.
I thought it'd be suitably ironic. :)

Good heavens, I've made so many bad decisions...
I wonder if Lia's mother was a Stark...
I wonder if Lia's mother was a Stark...
Only if the GM is a Martin...
Does anyone volunteer to take care of our inventory?
I just put together a quick & dirty loot log. It's in my descriptor bar.
Happy Easter!
Ditto!
Happy belated Easter like greeting.
Happy belated Easter. For some reason, the messagboards didn't want to post my Easter messages.
Hey, Lia. Got a question for you. How old is Lia? I know it says on your alias that she's 33. But how old is that in human years? Is it like with Alara in our other game? Or is she 33 in human years?
I just went by the random starting age table for half-elves.
At 33, she's still in the adulthood life stage, reaching middle age at 62. I'd say she's about 16-18 years old.
I just beat Dragon Age 2 last night. And... it was alright. But then again, that was the feeling I had throughout the game. As I got further, the flaws became more and more obvious. So, recap: I played a Male!Human!Warrior!Warden in Origins (made Alistair king, took Morrigan's deal, and played through all the DLC) and a Male!Diplomatic!Mage!Hawke (sided with the mages and romanced Merrill). And in Inquisition, I plan on a Male!Elf!Mage!Inquisitor (hopefully will romance Cassandra, partially due to her hatred for all mages).
So, planning on playing Origins and DA2 again. This time with a Male!Human!Mage!Warden (maybe make Alistair king, but debating on keeping unhardened; romance with Leliana (hardening her) to see what kind of impact her romance would have on DA:I) and a Male!Sarcastic!Warrior!Hawke (unsure who to side with (maybe with mages again due to missing Arcane Defender trophy; romance Isabela). Maybe with this DA:I file, I would play Qunari!Rogue!Inquisitor, gender unsure. But I'm thinking of switching the two DA:I characters around. I'm unsure about this. Any thoughts?
Honestly, I haven't been keeping up to date with DA: I news. I'm sticking with the playthroughs I've done:
-->Female!Dalish Elf!Rogue Warden who hardened Alistair & persuaded him to take the throne, as well as sleep with Morrigan (DLC played through)
-->Male!Snarky!Warrior! Hawke who sided with the mages & romanced Merrill
Mostly because Origins is so long.
I took some time to think about it and I won't start a new set of Dragon Age games. Too much work on that. Plus, I have the Ultimate Edition. So I get all of the DLC which makes the approval system easy to exploit with Feastday Gifts.
Just wondering... are we due to level up soon?
Well, Octavian's dead. What do we do now?
Well, I'm going to try to get his body out. He might have letters or something on him that will tell us more.
Venator, can't you use your Bit of Luck power to give yourself another chance?
Bit of Luck is a standard action, so it always precede the roll, but if it becomes important I can use that then swim. I mean, after the results are given.
Okay then.
Wow, I can't believe I didn't notice Lia has a maximum of 9 HP instead of 8 all this time.
Apparently, Lia's lack of Perception bled over onto me.
EDIT:...and I didn't realize Lia still gets an arcane pool. I thought she only got that at 3rd level for some reason.
Are you there Bane?
Hey guys, I'm around! I just play a lot of pbp's and sometimes one or two gets missed for a couple days. Venator shot me a PM so I'm checking in, that's usually a good way to get my attention.
Does anyone have the knowledge about this from other modules?
Cause to Venator it seems we're making a hushed decision here. We will be as clueless in Korvosa as we are here, but the danger will be bigger and maybe there are HEAVY guards on the slaver's payroll. Are you sure about this?
I think we should wait and see what's in 'Octavian's' box before we decide whether or not to sail for Korvosa.
But I agree on not rushing into this blindly; we need to rest and level up first.
I agree with Lia. Rest and level first.
I am in a CotCT game and I do have the pdfs of some of what was listed (avoiding metagaming, of course). But it may change due to this being a mashup of several APs and Modules.
I know the Sandpoint stuff extensively (regular out of the box stuff) but one of the reasons I wanted to play this particular pbp was the mashup stuff with CotCT which is the one AP I haven't played in to any extent.
But I am all for caution (one hit sniping bad guys to the contrary :p) so I am with the rest of you in taking it one step at a time.
So, what do you guys want to do while ulgulanoth's gone? I was thinking in character conversations with each other. To develop character.
I know Lia definitely has some questions for Aerodus. ;)
Yep. Certainly.
So, you want to start the conversation in the IC thread, Lia?
Posted.
Since level up is coming soon, I would like to discuss builds. I'm curious to see what builds you're planning on taking.
As for me, I'm struggling to find a good build. I'm torn on a few good ideas.
First is the full ranger. Then there's multiclassing. The classes I'm interested in are:
- Inquisitor (Spellbreaker archetype) level 3 or 5 (Spellkiller Inquisition or Feather Subdomain, Eagle Domain, the War Domain, the Tactics Subdomain, the Strength Domain, the Ferocity Domain, the Travel Domain, or the Exploration Subdomain) (not sure about deity. Maybe Gozreh, Desna, or Gorum). With this class, I can pick up judgements, some minor divine spells, domain/inquisition, stern gaze, cunning initiative, detect alignment, and track. With the archetype, I can be a more formidable foe against magic users. If I take this to level 5, I gain Bane. Depending on the domain/inquisition, I can increase that effectiveness against mages even further, gain an animal companion/familiar and gain bonuses to Perception, gain bonuses to melee damage, anything related to the Strength attribute, allow allies to reroll initiative, or give bonuses to melee damage rolls, or an increase to overall speed and the ability to see through surfaces. Another benefit is that it can mix well with a ranger since both are partly dependent on Wisdom. The downside is that we already have two divine characters. So having a third might be redundant. Plus, with so many abilities that could work, it's hard to choose.
- Fighter (Archer archetype) level 2 or 5. This seems to be more straightforward. I can gain bonuses to Perception, range increases with bows, and bonus combat feats. If I go to level 5, I gain the trick shot ability, another bonus combat feat, and a +1 bonus to attack and damage rolls with bows.
- Rogue (Sniper/Bandit) level 4. This would be for a more subtle archer. This class would allow me to half all of my range increment penalties, sneak attack damage, some rogue talents, an increase to the range that I can apply my sneak attack damage to, and more actions during a surprise round.
So, what do you guys think?
