Hey! Hey! No one is trying to steal anyone's 'girl'.

Just trying to keep people's spirits up.

And Aerodus isn't sure that's an approriate use of an italicized 'love'

LOL! Sure it is Aero.. Mom would love you to pieces.


Male Human Paladin 2

I can see it now...

Weekly Dose of Paladin Insanity:

As Sasha goes home there is a sign on the outside that says.. "The Family that Slays together, stays together"

"Mom, I found this great guy when I was out in the Mwangi Expanse!"

Oh really? What does he do for a living?

"He's a scholar Mom, he knows so much about Mwangi and Sargava!!"

How good is he at killing people?

"He's alright, He killed about four of them, they were unconscious though..."

NO! He must be able to kill them with a napkin while blindfolder!

"But Mom, he's a good guy!!!"

I don't care what alignment he is! I won't be having my daughter with some mwangian scholar who can't kill at the drop of a hat!


Half a ville, half a ville,
Half a ville to the tow'r,
All in the village of Death
Charged the the four adventurers.
"Forward, the adventurers!
"Charge for the tow'r!" he said:
Into the village of Death
Charged the the four adventurers.

"Forward, the adventurers!"
Was there a one dismay'd?
Not tho' the paladin knew
Someone had blunder'd:
Theirs not to make reply,
Theirs not to reason why,
Theirs but to kill or die:
Into the village of Death
Charged the the four adventurers.

My apologies to Alfred, Lord Tennyson :)

Aerodus will.....What? The suspense is killing me.


Male Human Paladin 2

Creative use of tab/enter makes for interesting posts.

Although... about everything is a bit too cliff-hangerish at the moment, without people quoting "Charge of the Light Brigade".

hahaha... hey, they won right? :) and you ain't just a whistlin' Dixie about this being 'cliff-hangerish'..


Hrm.. wait a minute.. isn't the naked (or semi naked) chick supposed to check out the noise in the basement?? Someone check the script! I don't recall noise in the attic being in there.. :)

But then again.. if this island is in the southern hemisphere.. the attic would be the basement.. Never mind.. carry on. Nothing to see here ;)

The Exchange

I understand that 'Psychopathic Cannibal Killing Machine' is new Prestige Class from the upcoming 'Mad Bastards of Golarion' splatbook... ;)


Male Human Paladin 2

Yea.. the fact that he just took about... 24 dmg and we only made him angry.

He can only kill one of us a round... right?


Aerodus Whiteblade wrote:

As long as he doesn't have cleave.. or is good with both hands.. or..

Rah rah rah!
You go guys.. you go guys..
Kill that cannibal.. kill kill..
And rip out his eyes

And thus ended Shisa's hopes to become a cheerleader..


woot! well done all :)


** meanwhile, on the set..**

Wrapped in a soft terry-cloth robe with bunny slippers on her feet, Shisa kicks back in her chair while drinking a latte and eating a jelly doughnut. "Hrm," she muses while flipping through the script,
"not sure where I'm supposed to be.."

A shadow passes over her notes and she looks up to see Klorak walking off the stage, head down. "Don't feel bad K. I'm sure there'll be more parts for you in upcoming modules."

"Um, excuse me, Miss LeCroix?" Lanna, her makup artist interrupts, "I need to touch up those wounds and your bruise looks a bit smeared. You're on in a few minutes.."

With a sigh, Shisa slips the robe and bunny slippers off, takes a last sip of her latte and lets Lanna go to work..


Male Human Paladin 2

Serpent Skull... or the tale of how Marik went from..

This to... This??

Staring Sasha as Red Sonja?

Besides the huge Conan feel Im getting right now..

The fact that Marik is now becoming a blood thirsty barbarian/cannibal? Or that Sasha is able to laugh and make light of the situation that we are smack dab in the eye of the storm!?!? (While caked in mud/blood and naked?) Which one is scarier?


Not to mention Aero becoming more jaded. stopped Shisa from beheading superghouls and displaying their heads on pikes at the hilltop camp.. then gets distracted while Marik lops the head off a cannibal :)

Yesss..yess.. Let your anger go young Aerodus. Feel the power of the dark side!


I am Sooo going to haunt you Aero! :)


Male Human Paladin 2

What??? What did I do? Im having a Highlander moment here!!


and thus begins Aero's rule of the gallaxy.. or island in this case..

as Taki says.. "Yess.. now my victory is complete.. together we shall rule.." :)

meanwhile.. in the cold dank wherever, Shisa feels a tremor in the force..


One head to rule them all,
One head to find them,
One head to bring them all
and in the village bind them.

It's an elf thing ;)


Male Human Paladin 2

Its Good to be chief!!!

Now to see... how short the leadership of Aerodus the Drowning Prone is..

Methinks Marik is becoming a little unhinged by his captivity in the cannibal camp.

I think everyone is.. I blame Aero since he's the kraken king..heh. Or it could be the evil influence of that statue.. or.. both ;) Being the lovable rogue.. you know it's not my fault.. *innocent look*


Male Human Paladin 2

Yep... I think the party is probably running on 120% Adrenaline, since waking up. Going to crash eventually, but at least.... we have the majority of the group in 'relative' safety?

And Shisa??? Well... That's why we have retrieval and rescue missions.. assuming of course she hasn't been eaten/devoured/ascended/killed yet.


Sitting alone somewhere in the dark, Shisa begins to sing, her voice deep and resonant..

Noo-body knows.. the trouble I've seen..
Noo-body knows..the sor-row..

I agree with the adrenaline Aero.. Methinks Shisa's already on the downhill slope.. chased, pummeled and bit into unconsciousness and woke up tied to a stake.. escaped.. sliced and diced near death.. then woke up somewhere dark with uglies nearby..all in one night. As a young, inexperienced adventurer, she's a borderline basket case at the moment.

This has been one well played and GM'd encounter!


Why do I have this vision of cannibals bowing down with a low voiced chant as Aero speaks from the tower..


Male Human Paladin 2

The fall of the Chief!:
Only right before Shisa silently loads her bow to assassinate the chieftain during his public appearance. A bit delirious from the lack of food/sleep and blood loss, she can barely make out the shape, but it must be him; as he is holding that magic sword above his head. Slowly taking aim as he rambles on about something she can't understand, she looses the shot: BAM! Crit + Sneak attack fells the cannibal chieftain!!

"I got 'im!" As the witch shrieks/weeps over the chieftain's corpse, Shisa slips into the forest, content that vengeance has been served.

Good... bad... I'm going to enjoy a bottle of maker's as the thread updates.


Plight of the unknown assassin:

Watching the chief fall, she grins widely. "Let's see.. I got the witch.. I got the chief. Aero will be soo happy! Wait until he hears about this.."

Darn.. and me in some dark unknown.. I'll miss my chance for vengeance against the chief ;)

Prof: What's your take on multi-classing? Curious as some DMs prefer not to allow, while others don't mind. Just thinking about character progression in the event Shisa lives to see another level :)

The Exchange

Multi-classing is fine - after all, Paizo made it not-suck... ;)


Male Human Paladin 2

How are you enjoying the new online campaign setup?

I'm loving the subtitle!

Is there a tab that we can use for loot and such?

Hope you feel better! If the GM is sickened... does that mean all the monsters get that nice -2 on the d20 rolls?

Edit: Also, Shisa is obviously a pod person, almost a perfect replica. Except the fact this pod Shisa can sing. :)

I'm not actually sure what the players can see (or edit... if anything) or not right now... If using a tab for loot means me having to make the effort, then I'm not such a big fan... I have enough to do as it is! :p

Ah yes - classic pod person mistake: Shisa thought she could sing, and they duplicated that by mistake! :)


Male Human Paladin 2

Gave me an insane idea, I'll try creating an Alias like..

Serpent Skull Loot Meister

And have it post in the campaign thread, thereby showing up underneath the list of characters, and thereby giving the players the ability to manage the loot. (GM Willing of course)

(also volunteering because corporate lets me browse paizo forums at work, giving me free time to poke around!)

Edit: Huzzah!! Its attached underneath Characters! Will try and populate by End of Day, blasted conference calls!! Can't they see I'm trying to update loot!


AC: 14 T: 11 FF: 13 Fort: 4 Ref: 3 Will: 1 HP: 11/11 Per: +5 (DV 60 with Analzyer)

Alright.. I think SSLM has everything but the lighthouse (if there is anything), will finish hunting through the thread for anything missed.

(Also feel free to chime in if something is claimed by your character so I can mark it off the sheet!!)

I believe there was a brass astrolabe and sextant we got from the ghost pirate shipwreck. Marik is carrying them.


Aero, Shisa picked up the following:

1x Master Crafted Shortsword - from the first mate's dead body
1x Master Crafted Dagger? (the Red Mantis one.. not sure of full stats) - found on beach under log - given to Marik then Sasha.. Shisa just asked for it's return.
1x +1 Dagger - picked up early in the adventure, can't remember where.. perhaps on the Jen (in the box?)


AC: 14 T: 11 FF: 13 Fort: 4 Ref: 3 Will: 1 HP: 11/11 Per: +5 (DV 60 with Analzyer)

Done and updated!!

Will put everything in a giant pile once we are able to do so in in game. (May need to find out if the Cannibals took the chest.. or what Ishirou+Company did to it!!).

Quick Aside: Shisa Aerodus has been graciously gifted (once again) with Mariks Mage Armour... so the leather armour does him no good.. (for about two hours)

True.. but as a naked female.. would you put on a stiff leather breastplate without a layer of cloth between you and it? heh.

Oh as an aside, you are correct on Arys' poem bonus. Everyone but Shisa.


Prof: Since Mundin ended up being the guest of honor at the local cannibal festival, would his equipment have been in the storage shed? Just thinking that Aerodus may have taken up the armor (if it'd fit that is..) instead of going off in just a shirt (or roguey leathers). Just curious as that would have seemed the wise choice.


Male Human Dad/20

Hey all,
Sorry I haven't been able to post much lately. My sister and I just got back from visiting my 85 year old mother, who's been in and out of intensive care for the past six weeks or so. It was a chance for us to say good-bye for the last time. Now it seems that, according to the hospital, she probably won't make it past the weekend and we'll need to return to Tampa next week. So you'll forgive me if I seem distracted and slow to post, there's just a lot going on right now.
Thanks,
V

Hey - family always comes first!

Thanks for letting us know, Vanulf, and best wishes for you and yours in the tough times.


I went through the same thing last Nov so I can relate. Will keep you and your family in my prayers. As Prof said.. family always comes first.


Male Human Paladin 2

Indeed, best wishes for you and your own.

In the grand scheme of things, Family >> PbP.


Male Human Dad/20

Thank you for all your thoughts and prayers. Just got word last night that they moved my mother from the hospital back to the nursing home she shares with her husband.
Although the immediate danger seems to have passed, the fact remain that it may be a matter of weeks rather than days til the inevitable otucome. At least she is home among familiar surroundings and family that love her.
Again, thank you for your concern.
V

Also... that attack roll should be a '1', guessing it got modified when I posted Initiative.

I've noticed that as well Aerodus. Based on my observation of having die rolls change on me, it seems that when you insert another die roll, your dice rolls move up. Hence, your init became '1' (your original attack roll) when you inserted and your init roll never actually rolled.


Male Human Paladin 2

And after posting.... realizing that she may have a hostage......

Yea.... whoops. Maybe Blinky can blind her... with his... um... floating!


Male Human Paladin 2

Well... if we combine Aerodus's attack rolls,Shisa's perception check and the entire parties HP....

We may have one decent combatant in melee!!

*Keep up the good fight!!*


Hopefully, this darkness won't last much longer.. I have a major bone to pick with her.. I'll start by picking out her rib bones.. followed by..


Male Human Paladin 2

Still here! Hope everything is alright with you Prof!
