Anything you feel I should be aware of

We are scheduled to start Nov 5th.

Please read:

How I handle PbP initiative:

I roll initative for everyone at the start of combat and will post a list that looks like this

Example 1 wrote:

Initiative

Combat modifiers like bless or inspire courage are posted here
Player A
Player B
- - -
Enemy 1
- - -
Player C
Player D
- - -
Enemy 2

In this case Player A and Player B can act, and Players C and D can not. If Player B posts his action those action are resolved and I change the tracker to:

Example 2 wrote:

Initiative

Combat modifiers like bless or inspire courage are posted here
Player A
- - -
Enemy 1
- - -
Player C
Player D
- - -
Enemy 2
- - -
Player B

If Player B wanted to wait to see what Player A did before acting he needed to either wait with posting or put in conditional clauses in his post like

Player B wrote:

If Player A flees the combat

Bertrand runs after Aloward, deciding that this enemy is too much for them to handle

If Player A casts a spell
Bertrand gawks at Alowards and mumbles "I didn't know you could do that!"

In any other case
Bertrand steps up to the Aspis agent and attacks him with his greatsword[/b]

In other words: in the same initiative bracket your actions get resolved in posting order, not initiative order.

This is my high IQ, low EQ character. He is outstandingly loyal and unintentionally abrasive (think Sheldon from the Big Bang Theory for the brain, but Conan the Barbarian for the physique).

Silver Crusade

Level 2

Day job: Traveling Priest and Merchant

Small Description of Kryas for those of you interested:

Smart-ish but lacks a formal education, grew up mainly among the fey as such he has a short attention span and gets bored easily. Adept at manipulating people and twisting words and meanings to get what he wants. He's loyal to those who earn his trust. He is a slow mover due in part to an injured leg.

Profession Merchant: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11

If you have a day job: please make the roll now as that will save me time when reporting comes or state that you do not have a day job.

I'm having some technical problems and have been only able to post via a tablet.

As my crude setup on the kitsune is on my laptop, i can't access it for now.

I'm still interested, don't worry.

Got a 17 on my day job roll (basket weaving, the manliest of all occupations). For some reason it isn't letting me edit my earlier post. Ah well.


Fiend series | Shackles

You can only edit posts within one hour after initial posts.

Do you know how to use the forum format functions? The more important ones are:

{dice=Perception}1d20+3{/dice} for

Perception: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22 if you replace {} with []

In character speech using {b}Bold{/b}

Out of character speech using {ooc} and {/ooc}

These (and others) are shown when you press "How to format your text".

And you can ignore this if it was common knowledge.

Sorry, I know that's proper etiquette, but I was just frustrated by not knowing why I couldn't edit my post and was just typing in frustration.
I am excessively new to PbP (not to Pathfinder, just to PbP), so please let me know if you see me getting the format wrong.
Thanks!


Fiend series | Shackles

No problem! And we have all been new both in PF / PFS and PbP, so don't worry. And it works both ways: please tell me when you think I am not doing things right.

A good thing to know regarding PbP is that you should never insert die rolls when you edit a post, because that will change results. If you need to add die rolls you should always add them after the already made die rolls.

Hope that makes sense, I am about to go to bed, so don't feel like making a lengthy post just now. There are some good guides out there, in Kludde's profile you can find some links.

PFS ID#: 66548-24
Character: Aloysius Pendergast (though he prefers "Inspector")
Player: Nefreet
Faction: Dark Archive
Class/Level: Investigator (2)
Advancement: Normal
Special Rules:

  • He's an Empiricist, so he uses Intelligence for Disable Device, Perception, Sense Motive, Use Magic Device, and Diplomacy checks made to gather information.
  • He has the Orator feat, so he uses Linguistics in place of most Diplomacy, Intimidate, and Bluff checks.
  • As an Investigator he adds +1d6 to all Knowledge, Linguistics, and Spellcraft checks.
  • He can also find and disable magical traps, though he does not yet have the Trap Spotter Rogue Talent (that's next level).
  • He has a spring-loaded wrist sheath with a wand of Cure Light Wounds (which I must use UMD to activate).
Craft (alchemy): 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (6) + 11 = 17 (actually one less than that but it doesn't impact the result)

Oh! Whoops. Forgot I have Crafter's Fortune, so Day Job result was actually 21 (and I just missed the editing window, too).

(he always drinks Endure Elements at the start of every day; it's a comfort thing)


Fiend series | Shackles

I have made the google presentation that I will use for this game (link in my status bar). Can you check if you have access? And while you are there: please include your perception and initiative modifiers on page 1 If one of these has situational modifiers add some text regarding that.

Thanks! Only 5 more days....

Excellent! Thanks for the assistance.

Balinor sees a heavily laden fellow approaching. "Pardon me, companion, do you need help with your gear. You seem weak. That is, I mean, not weak, bit too...not strong...to carry all of that. Sorry." He tries to be nice. He's just not very good at it.

EDIT: FYI for everyone, as I hadn't played Balinor since 1st level (and this adventure will bump him to 3rd level, yea GM credit!), I could still do some rebuilding, so I had him add grenadier so he'll get to add splash weapons to his sword next level and can boost himself with mutagen now. 24 str? I think yes!

My PC is carrying a host of alchemical weapons (hence the encumbrance). May as well with 1/3 pricing. It'll probably be his only contribution to damage.

Them. They write all their books together.

Aloysius Pendergast is an FBI agent that's their recurring main character.

The books aren't all police drama, but they're usually mystery. The Relic was my first and favorite read, and had a fair bit more of the supernatural than most of their books (don't see the movie that came after it; it was terrible).

It occurred to me Thomas is ill equipped in the ranged department.


Fiend series | Shackles

Thomas, go ahead, as long as you do it before I start act 2.

Should we be really pushing forward to get through Act 1 before the cutoff tomorrow? Or are we close enough to the end that we're fine? I just want to make sure we aren't only progressing every act because of the deadline, not because we are going at a good pace.


1 person marked this as a favorite.

Act 1 is an introduction to the rest of the party and through the rumors to some background. In other words: we have completed it.
