Color me interested with this Life Oracle 18.

GM Irish202 |

Hello all! Plenty of time until the start of the Gameday. Looking forward to high-level shenanigans with you all.
As a disclaimer, I typically use Roll20 for maps/tokens in my play-by-posts. For those not savvy with the program, I will also post screen shots of the maps with grid markings; but if you are able to use the program you will have the interactive map and token functionality of the program. I also use the program for the "behind-the-GM-screen" rolls as well, which can be verified in the chat log for the program. The link for the Roll20 page will be posted here in a couple weeks.
Here are my requests from you all. For the easy info:
1) Pathfinder ID and Character Number
2) Faction
3) Slow/Fast Progression
4) If any preference on token images, a link to such images.
For the more subjective/descriptive info:
5) Does your character possess any items (or have any tattoos or the like) that bear the Sihedron symbol (e.g. a sihedron medallion, a sihedron ring, or sihedron brands from Season 4) or have extensive ties to Thassilon (a bit open to interpretation, with creative reasoning)?
6) Have you played (or ran) any of the previous parts of this AP? If so, which ones?
7) Does your character possess a domineering weapon? (Odds are, if you don't know what this is, you probably don't)
8) Any odd or unusual information that you feel would be helpful for the GM to be aware of about your character.
Let me know if there are any questions!

Will fill out the rest later but do remember we need at least 4 people to play at this high level, since there are no pregens.

![]() |

I've never done play-by-post but I'm interested in joining you for this. I have three level 16 characters, but the life oracle would be redundant so that leaves my illusionist wizard or my flying sylph ninja of invisible death.

![]() |

1. 725-2
2. Liberty's Edge
3. Normal progression
4. No preference?
5. I was a Seeker by the time Season 4 came around, so no links to Thassilon
6. I helped to assault the Fortress of the Stone Giants, in which I disintegrated a stone giant wizard
7. No, sir.
8. Lots of spells and skills, plus inspiration and trapfinding from one level of investigator. Four metamagic rods (lesser empower, lesser selective, threnodic, and persistent). I speak 26 languages, including Thassilonian. Illusionist school gives me swift action Greater Invisibility for 15 rds/day.
How do I get all my information to post on that top line? I seem to remember seeing instructions for it once but now I can't find it.

![]() |

I remember your illusionist killed a big evil bad guy with a phantasmal killer once!
Once? Bah, I cannot remember how many minions of Evil I have scared all the way to the Boneyard. Disintegrate and fireball have also been go-to spells as necessary. Now that I have mastered prismatic spray, greater shout, greater shadow evocation, and so many more, I cannot wait to rejoin the ranks of the field agents once again, even if temporarily. It has been over four years since I entered the Tomb of the Iron Medusa. These administrative duties as a Venture-Captain at large have proven tedious.

![]() |

1) Grognar 156701-1
2) Grandlounge
3) Fast Progression
4) If any preference on token images, a link to such images.
For the more subjective/descriptive info:
5) No
6) Played 1-5 many on this PC
7) Nope
8) Grognar carries a blade of binding, is dual cursed, and a battle oracle. He switches between grappling and greatsword.

![]() |

I'd consider joining but I have a wizard and it seems you already have one or even two of those. My wizard is a conjuration/teleport specialist and a Diabolist with an Imp animal companion. Let me know by PM if you want him in the game.
It sounds like we wizards are very different from each other.
I also have a ninja that could go instead.

![]() |

I'd prefer to stay with this character. Sounds like we have another oracle but if he is a battle oracle I won't be overlapping with him really at all. I could switch to a bard 16 if there's too much overlap though.
Griff is definitely a healer and buffer, and is willing to use like half of his spells to do hours/level buffs. He will also sometimes summon. He does not get down and dirty into battle.
2) Faction: Grand Lodge
3) Slow/Fast Progression: Fast
4) If any preference on token images, a link to such images: The avatar attached to this post is fine.
5) Does your character possess any items (or have any tattoos or the like) that bear the Sihedron symbol (e.g. a sihedron medallion, a sihedron ring, or sihedron brands from Season 4) or have extensive ties to Thassilon (a bit open to interpretation, with creative reasoning)? He has a Sihedron Brand.
6) Have you played (or ran) any of the previous parts of this AP? If so, which ones? I have played parts 2, 3, and 4, and was in the middle of 5. Doesn't mean I remember a whole lot of it. (Also, none of it was with this character)
7) Does your character possess a domineering weapon? (Odds are, if you don't know what this is, you probably don't) No.
8) Any odd or unusual information that you feel would be helpful for the GM to be aware of about your character: Griff has a huge weakness with his hit point. He is Consumed curse, which I encourage you to look up. He loves to use his Ring of Invisibility + Scroll of Mind Blank when he is adventuring. He doesn't really attack things so the invisibility doesn't really break. He activates his ring when he can while he is awake. He also loves to buff up his allies to the hilt, and uses his Strand of Prayer Beads to buff up his caster level by 4 before he buffs.

Cool. I will have to get out my old buffing tables to remind myself of the buffs I dole out. Has been at least a year since playing this guy...

![]() |

1) Pathfinder ID and Character Number - 2072-4
2) Faction - Silver Crusade
3) Fast Progression
4) none
5) No
6) Have you played (or ran) any of the previous parts of this AP? If so, which ones? I'm playing book 3 now. I've played books 1-2 and PFS sanctioned parts of Fortress of the Stone Giants and Sins of the Saviors and ran just the PFS sanctioned part of Fortress of the Stone Giants .
7) No
8) I have a rhino mount but if we're in a dungeon I won't bring him inside.

Grognar's sheet is up thanks for the patience.
I will be double checking him against the paper copy over the next few days.

GM Irish202 |

Hello all! I have opened up the gameplay thread for introductory RP.
Sharton, I will need you to provide me a link to your character sheet or update your character bio with your sheet info before you can post in the gameplay thread. Skorn will be joining us as of my last PM with him once he gets his info sent over.

![]() |

All, this is my alias. Its more work than I was thinking to level to 16 (adding my last chronicle that I picked up at a con in May) and creating a PBP alias for the first time but I am almost there.

OK. Lets discuss buffing here.
Ezren had a nearly fully charged wand of Channel the Gift. That means wand charges can power the casting of any spell up to level 3.
So, with that I intend to cast Extended Communal Resist Energy Fire, Cold, Electricity, and Acid on the group. but the duration will be split up between the group so best not to cast it until later.
He also has a communal stoneskin he will cast for the group at some point. That has the same problem of the duration being split up.
He is willing to use his wand to power other buffs for the group.

![]() |

Grognar has his on stone skin from a revelation so that can save duration for the group.
He can cover some of the resist energy with spell slots.
He has a wand of longstrider that anyone can use.
We are going into a fortress so hunter blessing will be humanoid urban and monstrous humanoid underground.
Everyone bring diamonds and diamond dust for resurrections and restorations.
Heroism is always a good bet Grognar has 2 castings for him self.

![]() |

Smart, we have around a fortnight. We should neither waste time nor should we forgo the tool of rest if we have that option.

![]() |

Ezren, you also get an extra 1d6 on your knowledge checks? Sharton gets it from inspiration from his level of investigator and I see the 1d20 + 1d6 for your character as well.

![]() |

Which item is it? I may want it for a smarter pc.

![]() |

I am also curious about this item, for some of my other PCs!

![]() |

Might pair well with my PC that has a lore needle in his head.

![]() |

We back!

![]() |

I think so...
I am around to today, am going to be away this weekend, back Monday-Wednesday, and then away again Thursday-Monday for Dragon con.

Woo! Maybe I'll see you at Dragon Con! I will probably be wearing my old forum nametag again "Yiroep (GM Andrew)." I'm an Atlanta VL. ;)

![]() |

Nice. I'll look for you. I was gonna play some PFS there but all the tickets were sold out by the time I went to look. I got one of the special tickets. That is it. Will try to get more at 7:00 Thursday night.

![]() |

Just a reminder, I will be at Dragon Con this weekend. It starts officially about 48 hours from this post. I am not doing too much there but there could potentially be an outage from me.

![]() |

Cool, enjoy! That's one I haven't made it to, at least not yet.
Out of curiosity, Griff, I don't see that you've listed it yet, have you life linked all of us?
For the group: We're going to be in Normandy for the weekend, but since I'm several hours ahead of y'all me checking posts in the mornings and evenings probably won't be any different than my normal.

![]() |

I forgot about life link. Honestly, I was considering trading it out. It's not so great at this level...
I guess I can put it on everyone though. Griff has a lot of HP.

![]() |

I also have a life oracle. Her motto is "Healing hurts."

Dragon con in full swing for me. Posting will be very sporadic.

This was recently posted by Hmm in the main PbP Gameday page regarding site outages.
WAIT. DID YOU SAY ‘KEEP GAMING’ THROUGH THE DOWNTIME, HILARY?
Yep. Redelia (aka our VL) came up with an amazing idea that we in PBP Gameday VII are now suggesting to you.
Remember those alternate modes of communication that I asked you all to set up? I am hoping that most or many of you have a group Hangout, email group, discord or some other backup for your group.
I also figure that most of you GMs have a backup Google doc where you keep posts in progress.
We’re going to relax the rule that says you can only game on our forums, and encourage all groups to keep moving even during downtime. Most gameplay is expected to be on Paizo forums, but google hangouts or discord channels can be used to keep posting during the outages. As soon as Paizo is back up, the GM is expected to summarize what happened in the chat on the Paizo forums. (I’ve been experimenting with this with one of my groups, and they even sometimes copy their posts from the hangout to a shared google doc for me, making such summaries easy for me to edit and post back on Paizo when we go live.)
Hangouts allow dice expressions (except in mobile) and Discord can do dice with various dice roller apps. Other players can roll for mobile-only players if needed.
Going forward in the event of site outages, the Roll20 page that I have quick linked at the campaign header will be my default for any dice rolling/posting. I will transcribe any posting onto the campaign gameplay thread after functionality resumes on Paizo. Please do not hesitate to ask me questions about using Roll20 (dice-rolling, token movement, etc.) if you have any.

![]() |

Got it. I'll be bookmarking the Roll20 site since obviously the quick link won't be available when Paizo's site is down.
