All, I am on vacation and traveling starting tomorrow morning for 2 weeks. I hope to have some connectivity while traveling, especially during the first week of the trip, but please bot me when needed to move the game along. During that time my posts may be shorter as I may be posting from my phone.
GM Shady |
Hi. When I started I asked if anyone could give me a summary of the story so far - haven't really had it. With Duristan re-making an appearance, and my having read so far about 20% of the gameplay thread from the start, I'm going to be making continuity errors unless briefed - please feel free to do so.
Kimberly Snow |
I guess that we had no idea that he would be making a re-appearance. anyway, this error is not a big deal. as we discover things we can simply go about updating or "briefing"
I am sorry about everything so far. I guess there are some details that we probably didn't think were important.
Anna Dunsany |
GM Shady |
@Anna - thanks that's really useful.
No apologies necessary - I'm just trying to keep up the pace without having read the full 7000+ entries (I am going through them, nevertheless) so occasionally winging it is necessary.
I think in general it would be useful, especially given the switches in GM (don't worry, this isn't a threat) to have an objective summary prepared and sitting in the campaign resources. I'll draft one based on the books and then people can chime in with extra info.

Anna Dunsany |
I'm still here! I think Tolvan is finishing up his vacation, but maybe you could bot him and have him ID the gear at least?
Tolvan |
Checking in. I am in the airport in Paris and have already been traveling 10'hours. 18 more to go. I'll try to catch up and be posting by Wednesday.
Tolvan |
Or later tonight. At work today with little sleep. Putting out fires and such. Certainly I can post in game thread tomorrow.
Anna Dunsany |
Guys, I'm going to be at a convention this weekend, starting tomorrow. I'll have my phone with me, and can make limited posts from it. So please bear with me as I'll post where I can and otherwise just bot me.
Tolvan |
I think I have been to that years back when Living Greyhawk was running. At a large convention center?
Anna Dunsany |
Yeah, one of the biggest. It's not a gaming convention, though.
Tolvan |
Right. Gaming was tucked in an out of the way corner. I stayed in a hotel across the street and walked one iirc. And while I never intended it to happen I never bought a badge for that show. I found where we were gaming and just stayed there, never finding the badge place or going anywhere they checked badge. So I owe that con like 40.00 I guess.
Kimberly Snow |
not sure right now
Tolvan |
Hold for a day or so folks. It may be that Shady will come back. We are working on it.
Tolvan |
A good friend has agreed to submit a character to replace Oathar. I expect he will post here today or over the weekend sometime with some ideas/concepts. He is a good role player and knows the rules as well as anyone I know. My preference would be for him to bring in another paladin, but that is not a strong preference. What do the rest of you think?
Anna Dunsany |
Gang, I'm going on a mini retreat to the mountains this weekend and will be offline until Monday. Please bear with me and bot me if necessary.
Kimberly Snow |
I am happy with anyone.
also GM If there are any other NPC's that re-occur, let us know and we can provide any past experience with you.
I know that the beast from the last book is friendly to Kimberly. I don't remember if it still has her haunted teddy bear though, that kind of freaked Anna out alot anyway.
Grumdar |
Hi all. I am Tolvan's friend.
I am looking at bringing in a Paladin and I am currently working out the details.
I am assuming the same build criteria as on the first page of the recruitment page, but what would my starting gold be and are there any limitations on what I can spend the gold on?
first pass will be a Human (chelaxian) paladin (divine defender[APG], sacred shield[UC], warrior of the holy light[APG]) 8th level, follower of Iomedea or Ragathiel, divine bond with shield.
Kimberly Snow |
looks up at the paladin, thats a lot of titles, I am Kimberly, ahhh, priestess of Pharasma well not really that last part, but I am gonna be one, well some would say I already am one, but I don't feel like one. You can call me Kim.
and that is Tolvan, and that is his girfriend Anna, and that is Dancia ove there, she can punch things really hard.
GM Shady |
First time we've added someone since I've been here.
I suggest those who have HL run a roll call on current wealth + gear value and we will take the average.
Classes - I suspect some books have come along since this campaign started. I think the balance requires divine caster/fighter but I'm guessing warpriest might work, for example, so doesn't have to conform to original constraints per se.
Spending - no third party content I think. I would say in general this campaign doesn't suit the Numerian style sci-fantasy stuff (from Iron Gods etc) and any oriental content.
Build - well, alignment for a paladin should not be an issue. As recruitment thread plus:
Traits - not hedge magician, natural born leader or rich parents
Race- let me know if you want something different from the recruitment thread. I'm more relaxed on non-core stuff as long as it fits.
Tolvan |
Tolvan's wealth is skewed by two items he has found that he never would have bought. The first is a Staff of Swarming Insects that lists for 22,800 gold. He has only used it once and that was recently against that hangman tree, whichI have to admit was quite nice since both the swarms and the tree were immobile. The second is a wand of the 4th level spell Charm Monster with 44 charges. It lists for 18480 gp. The DC for this spell is only a 16. Add to that that if he tries to use the wand once combat has begun the enemy gets a plus 4 to the save. Not that great and I'd be happy to sell it for party wealth once we get to a place where that is possible.
His total wealth level, including those two items is 68,500 gold. This includes the full price of some scrolls he scribed for half price as well. Without the two items listed above his wealth is 27,000 gp.
Kimberly Snow |
Kimberly has a total wealth (including cash) about 19,500 gold
WBL for level 8 is 33,000
Theopolis Vitaron |
Here is the character I would like to join your group with.
His shield is his big value item.
Anna Dunsany |
Welcome, Theopolis! (You going to mind if we call you Theo?)
I have at least 18,000 gp in items, not including my ring of invisibility. It's a compromise item, working 3/day for 5 minutes each rather than the full Core Rulebook version. I'm not sure what that would be priced as. I've also got a huge amount of random junk that I got during her little spending spree. After our adventures in Lepidstadt, we each got a 10,000 gp windfall designed to get us up to our then-current WBL. Since I was already pretty close, I was allowed to go on a spending spree to buy up every little trinket that caught my fancy so long as it didn't affect gameplay.
That's why Anna has a carriage, a team of horses, three servants, and a huge wardrobe of dresses and cases of alcohol. They're all left back at the Lodge right now.
Theopolis Vitaron |
In the long term, I don't have a problem with Theo, but I would prefer Theopolis when we first meet and until our characters become a bit more familiar with one another.
Danica Quinn |
Danica's total item cost is about 20,000; 19,930 to be exact.
- Ring of Protection +1 - 2000 gp (loot from the well)
- +1 Amulet of Nature Armor - 2000 gp
- +1 Temple Sword - Cost 2330 gp
- 2 Pearl of Power (lvl 1) - Mage Armor - 1000 each (used by Tolvan to cast Mage Armor on Danica for 24 hrs)
- Headband of Inspired Wisdom +2 - 4000 gp
- Metamagic Rod, Extend (wielder can cast up to three spells per day that are extended as though using the Extend Spell feat) - 3000
- Heavy Load Belt (The belt’s wearer is affected as though subject to a permanent ant haul spell.) - 2000 gp
- Handy Haversack - Cost 2000 gp
- Masterwork Nunchaku, silver - Cost 600 gp
She has some other non magical items like bow & arrows and her regular gear.
She also has the below items acquire from the campaign.
- Potion of Cure Moderate Wounds (x2)
- Potion of lesser restoration (x1) - Found in Prison
- Potion of Remove Disease (x1)
- Mage Armor scrolls (x1/3) - Cost 25 gp each.
- Scrolls - Flames of the Faithful x 2,
GM Shady |
So my plan is that Theo(polis) arrives at the farmstead the following day, led by some kind of vision that someone will need his help. Oathar will leave tonight.
On wealth, I think this is a function of a) auto-upgrading the characters and b) the fact that an AP is designed for 4 players. I suggest using the WBL for lev7 = 23,500 gp, but if you want something that takes you higher than that let me know.
Kimberly Snow |
So should we just upgrade to 23500 then?
Theopolis Vitaron |
I made some adjustments to Theopolis' gear to bring it in line with 23,500gp
- Removed Ramming from the shield, now it is a +1 lgt steel bashing, holy reliquary shield
- Added Boots of the Cat and an Elixir of Swimming
- Increased the str bonus on the Mw Comp Longbow from +4 to +6
- Increased remaining coinage from 9pp 9gp to 14gp 9gp
Theopolis Vitaron |
Folks, Theopolis approached to 50 feet (within range of detection spells), announced/revealed his presence, declared who he was and what lead him to this place.
He then instructed that if you are a "friend" to announce yourself, reveal yourself and give your intentions.
Two people were able to do this and two people could not.
For Theopolis to continue he needed some kind of assurance/voucher for the two individuals that would not reveal their names, even if it was a false one.
Additionally the assumption that Theopolis had moved any closer was a false one. I should have added that in my post when I asked for some kind of voucher, as it was apparently not clear I did not move forward.
Theopolis will have a very hard time traveling with anyone if simple instructions are unable to be followed.
Tolvan |
??? DM indicatged he wanted to move forward so that was what I was trying to do. Tolvan has since introduce himself. Do we need to speak every word said?
