Im currently dealing with a family crisis. I should be back online soon.

Crisis isn't necessarily diverted, but I'm starting to cope with it. I'll be back soon, just... might take me a while to get the energy up to post rapidly again.
Let's play Paizo.
?
Waiting for Hoga and Red-Raven to post.
I apologize for being absent for a while. I had to force-disconnect myself from the internet for a while and it made doing play-by-post games difficult.
However, that is part of the reason for this post. I've realized that I've been putting way too much time into play by posts, and have signed into WAY too many games for me to reasonably handle with my current workload and changes to my life situation. I needed to cut down the number of games I am in, and this one is one of them. I am sorry. I was having fun, but these games were getting to be one of my causes of stress, and that was what tipped things for me. Thank you for the opportunity to play with you all, and I am sorry for the inconvenience.
Sad to see you go, but thank you for letting us know.
We are close to the end of the modules. If everyone agree, I'd say let's push forward and get it done!
I'm in favor of continuing.
I will be traveling from the US to Europe this coming Friday and I'll be in Europe for a week. I still expect to have internet access so I should be able to continue posting. There might be some delay while I'm in transit.
I'm still up to play. My other PbPs all died out.
Same. This is actually the first game I am going to complete. Might as well finish it. I am not sure if it is harder now that we have three players left.
I guess I've had better luck than you guys. I've finished 10 PbP scenarios so far. :-) I'm all in favor of trying to finish it.
The original announcement for this game was to follow with Dragon's Demand. Do you guys still want to try that? I think I can recruit some more players. I've got some friends who are interested in PbP and I think they'd like to join.
That was the idea. If you guys want to continue after this, I am all for it. Recruiting 2 more players to bring the group back to 5 would be nice.
But like I said, let's conclude this part, then we can plan for the rest.
Sounds good to me.
Are you still interested in Dragon's Demand? I would be.
I'm sure it won't be hard to recruit a couple people.
BTW, I GM'd the first bit of Dragon's Demand with my kids a couple years ago. We didn't get very far and I didn't read through the entire module. I hope that will not disqualify me.
I'm ready to go on.
I'm on my cell phone at the moment with no access to a real computer. So I can't write a nice long post like I would want to. You can expect a good post monday morning.
Also, for those who would want to, I still hope to continue this with Dragon's Demand. Once we conclude this, we will be able.to talk more about that.
I am down to continuing. Same thread or different thread?
I'd say same thread so that we still have the post history easily available.
Okay then. If we are recruiting again, I feel that we should also give previous applicants a chance at re-submission.
Do we know why the others dropped? I see that at least one of the others is active in other games.
We need 1 or 2 new characters who will play dependably. We could use a stealthy type, and maybe an arcane full caster.
We could also invest in a face as well. We have the power but not one of us have good persuasion skills other than Hoga's intimidate. Could help with social encounters and conversion if our bread and butter approach is not working out.
Yes. A bard would be good. PF made it playable.
Do we know why the others dropped? I see that at least one of the others is active in other games.
Red-Raven told us that he needed to drop some game cause he spread himself over too much.
Garrick told me by pm that he was having a hard time find a voice for his character and slowly dropped out. Often enough, I had to pm him so that he would post.
Taladrius was also someone that I needed to pm to get a post. So he slowly just faded out.
For the recruitment, my first suggestion would be to look into the other games you are involve with. See if anyone would fit here and if they are good poster. Then if we don't get people like that, I will open it at large on the recruitment board.
As for the selection process, I think at this point it's your game as much as mine, so I would prefer having a group decision.
I'll look into some of my other former games.
I'm hoping for some players who post a lot. :-)
Nothing really comes to me. Maybe we should just advertise in recruitment. Need a face and maybe a skill monkey.
Browsing through the profiles. This guy is pretty active despite being in many games. This is someone we can take into consideration.
I'm in two other games with him and he's been pretty active in both. One of the other games is stalled cause the GM needed a break.
Ok, I've sent Raltus a pm. Waiting for a response. Also, I have a friend from my TTRPG who might be willing to join. He will be looking over it.
You guys have just reached the town. If you want we can either roleplay the shopping or just fast forward it by telling me what you want to buy and what you want to sell. I'm open to both, so up to you.
On Thrusday, Raltus told he would let me know about joining. Haven't heard anything about it, but this is Easter weekend, so I'll give him more time.
As for my friend, he is interested, but he is waiting to see what Raltus will do for is character before doing his. Since Raltus applied first, he wants to let him choose first.
We can skip the shopping RP. What I want is healing satchel from Healer's handbook for current or future if we cannot buy it now. Cost about 3k gold but you can heal for HD+wis mod with heal skill if you meet minimum check. Beat DC by 5 or more you will get HD+(2xwis mod). A good thing about it is that it is a healing kit that refreshes every day.
"Now back to the main concern. As I was saying, your ignorance brought about the potential awakening of two evils. You told us that you had executed this plan many times. Judging by your tone and action, it came to me that you had grew complacent, thinking that every four years is the same. The enemy learned of this, bided their time and took advantage. When you acted on something thoughtless and irresponsible, I do have the right to judge you. Had you paid attention, this would not had happened. You are fortunate that we still have time to act before it come to fruition. Look at what you have wrought. The hired group was slaughtered. Roldare is scarred. You damned the everflame to evil who will used it for their nefarious purpose. You endanger not only our town but all life."

Welcome UltimateWolf, can't wait to see the character that you will build.
If you guys want to buy/sell stuff, post it here. To make thing simple, you can sell stuff at 50% of its value. Once everyone is done in Kassen, I will move the story forward and introduce the new characters.
As for Raltus, I sent him a PM last Thursday that he responded to. Telling me he would get back to me. Then on Tuesday, I've sent him a reminder and didn't get any answer from that even though he's been posting in his game every day since. At this point I'll send some invites to some people I had the chance to play with in another game.
I'll let you know how that go.
Welcome!
Can we trade the dagger and longsword for a greataxe? Hoga would like that.
Also would like to see if Tamora can afford a healing satchel if we sell our items.
You will need to look over all the loot you got from the quest and see how much money you can raise from selling it. Not sure if anyone kept track of the loot. Also, might want to buy something, don't forget about him.
In other news, we have a Half-Elf Investigator who will be joining us. He should post in this thread soon, once his character is ready. Don't know the name yet, so keep an eye out! ;)

Haven't heard from Kakrish? Does he have anything he wants to buy?
Ok. I went through and picked out what I wanted and what has already been claimed. I tried to summarize it all in the table below. If I got it right then we will sell everything else and that give us a total of 4458 gp which is 1486 gp each.
If all of that is correct then the only thing that I want to buy is a wand of bless and then I'm set.
Hoga or Tamora, if there is something on the list that you want before we sell it go ahead and grab it and tell us.

-- Questions --
What is the value of the permanent daylight brazier?
Does everyone agree with the above information?
I have the ring of swimming, and the +1 dagger. I'd like to trade the 2 magic weapons for a +1 greataxe.
Ok. Seems fine to me. If you sell the ring of swimming and +1 dagger and then buy a +1 greataxe you actually come out ahead 81 gp. I assume you'll add that to the pool. And I also assume you'll be selling your existing masterwork greataxe (160gp). So the new picture is:

Is everyone ok with this?
Greetings all. I am your investigator. Comments welcome on my draft build. Note with archetype and traits he can act as a face using Int instead of Charisma and with Breadth Of Experience can make profession checks at +2 untrained. He is also pretty decent with traps and very good with knowledge rolls, spell craft and linguistics as he can use inspiration for those skills for free.
I fear he will be average at best in combat but has a good weapon at least.
I look forward to joining you.
