Regular Joes

Game Master John Napier 698

I’m really enjoying the pace. I just won’t be around as much over the holiday period. But I assume that’s the case for most people.

I do think some kind of map/hex grid program might be good for combat.

I have Campaign Cartographer. I'm trying to get through the learning curve.

I won't be around on christmas day itself cos busy partehing. Other then that I'm still good.

I don't think anyone will be around but me. It's just my mother and I here. We're not the partying types. She's 70, and I can't drink as much as I used to twenty years ago. :( But that's okay. There's always a party here on the boards.

Indeed. Campaigns are fun.

I hope everybody had a good Christmas and is enjoying themselves. It's 8 degrees out right now, so we're just bunkered in. Happy holidays, all!

Gettin' by!

By the way, everyone. Since we're playing a long-term game, I'll allow item crafting, but only during extended rest periods in a safe area. All item creation feats are available.

I don't really bother in this incarnation. LOL. I don't even HAVE a caster level, nor do I picture him as having the patience to craft.

Okay, but following the discussion in the other thread, I felt that this was something that needed to be clarified.

What do we need to do now to progress? XD

Probably wait for our GM to feel better. He has a cold and needs to hide under blankets.

D'awww!

Okay dockie XD

This cold hasn't affected my thought processes. If everyone is in agreement to place the Alchemy equipment and the extra weapons in a cache, then go ahead. Select the items that will be kept and let me know.

Will take only the "magical" longsword and glaive.

Those poor refugees xD

Alas, the dice gods have spoken...

There'll be another chance to make the roll. The party was initially following Goblin tracks unrelated to the ruin, remember?

Oh yeah let's go find more gobbies!

I guess one of the GM duties is also funeral director...

Let me see what I can find on nordic funerals, though Tassadar isn't the very...religious sort, and would rather defer to a priest.

If you want me to, I can. It'll be a fairly simple affair of saying a prayer, then setting the pyre alight, viking style.

Just spoke to Jesse. She's been busy IRL. The game should move along in a day or two. Take a break. I'll send PMs when things get going.

Hey DM can you clarify for me

Did the frog attack Goldus when he moved or did he ft step

IE he provoked an attack moving
Or did the frog move to attack him?

Or did it have a reach attack?

The Giant Toad has ten-foot reach.

I really cannot see anything frog like without thinking of these.

So slurp... Sorry I am a greedy guts of the highest order.

By the way, after the toad is killed, Tassadar can wear gloves and skin it, making one DC 15 Reflex save per leg. Once skinned, the legs would be safe for consumption. After all, the poison glands are in the skin.

Oh my... Profession chef here I come...!

Jared has Profession( Cook ). When you level up, He can teach you.

OK good let's get Golarion Cuisine going. Who were we waiting for, again?

Goldus, Jared, and Dexter.

I think it was a good call on my part to call it out. Mmph.

Hey DM

Can I humbly petition you to consider the fast exp track?
I know this is my first PBP experience but what I’ve seen so far is everything takes a very long time xD
Being a character based on casting ability who at this rate is liable to be Level one for about 6 months is really starting to kill my mood xD

Very well, Fast Track XP it is.

I like a roleplay-intensive game. It's more fun to me than just rolling dice. It is nice to advance regularly, too. Keeps things interesting, and the challenges more challenging.

I can roll both ways. I am not the best of people for flowery speeches but I do try to treat NPCs with respect.

Of course if they are @sshats,I'll happily give them a piece of my mind. I'm not the sort that when slapped, will turn to the other cheek.

It won't end up in violence, though. I will only do violence if I believe they are a threat, or are already attacking.

I like the roleplay aspect in particular, it's just that in low level caster characters I always start to feel a little bit frustrated by the intense resource management involved, I didn't realise quite how long it would last hence asking about fast track :).

But yeah in previous face to face games my fave aspect has been roleplay.

Lol I think everyone missed

I’m looking for recruits for a new AP (undecided which yet) which I will probably be running in about 1-2 months time.

It will proceed at a very fast pace – I’m looking for 2x/day posting minimum.

I’m currently running a solo gestalt run of Strange Aeons – and this is the sample of the pace. Though of course with 4 players – realistically it’ll be more like 2 posts per day, like this
I am of GMT +8 timezone, and so I would rather recruit those on Asia Pacific or American(Night shift) types, since obviously I ain’t posting when I’m asleep nor do I expect people to post during their sleeping hours. If anyone’s interested, please PM – and also state your timezone so I can vet for suitability.

I am also LN – so its pretty much RAW.

You are expected to be able to see maps on Google Drive on whatever device you’re using to post on.

If you want to see the specifics on how I would run the AP (build rules and all), check my GM profile – though the profile is a rough guide and I may change it slightly depending on what AP is run.

For Example saying No evil characters in Hell’s Vengeance is out. But of course I would not run Hell’s Vengeance in the first place, so it’s just an example.

Please PM if interested, with timezones attached.

-GM Mort (Aka your friendly neighbourhood ranger)

Goldus?

Mort's running a PbP, trying to finish up Strange Aeons.

No opinion either way.

I like it. If people drop out, replace them or just keep going.

We'll wait and see what Goldus and Aeden have to say.

I have no problem with proceeding, though I do feel like I can't tell if we're making any kind of progress toward our goal.

Getting close the the end of the current assignment.

I'd like to keep playing this character. He'll be more fun once he levels.

Not sure why I can't currently post in gameplay thread - GM - could you help me roll my perception?

Try it again.

Finally got it to work...

*rubs painful toe from kicking laptop*

There's a monster hereabouts that likes to eat posts.

Let's kill it!
