Reign of Winter Adventure Path Table 2 (Inactive)

Game Master GM Sapphire Fox

When we hit a good break (chronicle perhaps?) Point I would like to rework Ulric into a more tanky class, maybe a paladin or fighter. We have enough magic, and the rage song isn't that great with this group.

If possible, of course.

there is a chronicle but you haven't reached it yet, there is a spot coming up that will allow you to do so, though pm an idea for RP wise he would change in that way

I'll do some plotting. Though we may be rolling a whole new party momentarily...

I hope that chronicle or at least a in game level up is coming up soon... I hate being stuck once I've used up all my good spells as a low level caster.

Ya i think im gonna make Orladan more sword and board than two handed. I think we will benefit more from that as she is a fighter.

Hi! Thanksgiving and its weekend have me busier than I expected. I will return to all of my games Sunday PM or Monday. Please bot me if needed!

Anyone talked to yuukyou?

I'm here... Sorry, missed the update in the holiday commotion I guess.

Yuukyou, you may want to go ahead and fire that marble at one of the critters that's already downstairs, preferably the necromancer :)

What I wouldn't give to be able to channel energy vs. all these guys

YIPES! My map didn't update, it still showed you guys upstairs fighting the 2 skelebros and nothing else! How did I miss THAT showing up?

ya this is going to be rough.

hey, this will be my first TPK in pathfinder! :P

A good wand roll and you could get Ulric back up!

A cleric channeling positive would have really be nice in this situation.

But TPK, assuming we can toss together a second party will be fun too.

"We want you to go in to get the guys, who went in to get the guys, who went in to get the guys. You're the best of what's left"

ha! I can see the party now: a farmer, a blacksmith, an innkeeper, a stable hand, and a wainwright :)

This is a heads-up that I am starting a new job on Monday. Until I have a handle on the culture and internet policies there, I won't be doing any posting from work; this will likely result in a slightly slower posting rate from me. I will do my best to keep things going, but don't hesitate to bot me if I am holding things up.

Orladan, why didn't you let that 1 be your reflex save?!?

Good luck on the new job!

The ONE TIME Orladan hits something :)
27 pts will take me WAY below negative con

Im sorry nox i was hoping for my normal s$$!ty rolls of the dice. And i dont think were all very far behind cause were trapped and surrounded.

Ya if only i would have rolled fpr it but it didnt make since to cause of my energy resistance.

Seems to me a tactical advance to the rear might be you all's best bet.

I bet if you run back to town, some reinforcements might be conveniently hanging about :)

Or to quote Monty Pythons Holy Grail... "run away!"

I've been avoiding the "I don't have to be faster than the zombies, just faster than you" joke so far.

I'm hoping for a confirmed crit on the priest when I get my shot, but we all know the chances of that...

Speaking of getting my shot...who are we waiting on? I think I've lost track of who's turn it is.

I believe the GM to resolve Nox getting pasted is the next step.

Nice thing is we can rejigger our party to be a bit more balanced, some real frontliners and a healer perhaps.

i think if i end up dead then im gonna make a pally

Honestly, I'm kinda not feeling this game. I was hoping to stick it out at least until the first chronicle sheet, but if we're not gonna get even that due to TPK and have to start all over I may bow out.

This game has been running pretty slow of late. We've been in this recent combat (4 rounds) for a month now.

I apologize folks, new job kinda kicking my ass for hours, I will get things straightened out, I will have updates come tomorrow when I arrive home with the books

I did not intend my comment as conplaint or criticism, just observation.

This time of year, especially, is slow.

I hope your new job slows down and works our for you! I went through a few years where it seemed like I was starting a new job or position every month (Hazards of moving across the country and rapid promotions) and it sure can be a handful!

Being a stay at home dad for a toddler gives me lots of time to post but many days I miss a nice, relaxing, 60 hour work week.

If this ends up a TPK (seems all but unavoidable at this point...), how many are interested in rolling up new PCs and giving it another try? (I am) @GM, what are your thoughts on the likelihood of TPK, and are you interested in taking another run at this?

Already in:
Orladan (Fighter > Paladin)
Tchort (Investigator > ???, thinking Warpriest or Mesmerist, depending on party needs)
Ulric?

Already out:
Yuukyou (Psychic)

Undetermined:
Ylosani?
Nox?

I'm still hoping Ylosani is going to be able to make break for it.

I would still be interested in playing if he doesn't survive, but I would have to think about what to play.

If he is killed, does that mean the PFS character is killed, too?

I'm still in, I have a few ideas kicking around

Im in for sure, either thinking another martial (if needed) or I have a Gun Tank switch hitter idea rollin in my brain.

Even could go cleric if needed, I'm pretty flexible.

if this character is killed that does not mean the PFS character is killed, and I'll tell you now, you are maybe 1/2 way to the first chronicle if that gives you all an idea as to how far in you actually are

Im ready cause it looks like tpk is happening.

I will probably be making a cleric if you wanna go tough, Ulric

Ok, that's fun then.

I'm at a small impasse for a martial, I had thought Paladin but Orladan has got that covered and I'm currently running a cav, bloodrager, and paladin. Not really wanting to go ranger/swash/stalkee/brawler.

I might just go plain old fighter.

Choices choices

Edit: leaning towards another bloodrager

ulric a warpriest is another option

ulric a warpriest is another option

Indeed, I have considered it. I mostly have had a habit of playing 3/4 BAB hybrid classes (primarily bards and magus) so I had been focused on full BAB classes to try.

My Cav and Paladin are still lvl 1 PFS and my Bloodrager has Oracle levels as well.

not done yet, but this is the new guy I'm working on

GM, if you wouldn't mind removing me from the game so that I don't keep getting updated, I'd appreciate it (Both me and GM starson are the same). Wish you all the best of luck, but I'm just not feeling this adventure.

I think I will go warpriest, we are just rerolling on the same PFS # right?

Scratch, gonna go Yojimbo Samurai.

If someone wants, we can work out that he's bodyguarding another PC, or the mayor lady can just have hired him to check out the disturbance.

Hopefully I can get him built when my son takes his nap this afternoon.

No, that's not gonna work.

Back to warpriest

@GM, are you on board with us going back in? I have two concepts, either a Mesmerist or a Hunter; I'll probably decide based on the rest of the party composition.

Ylosani survived; are you keeping your PC for the rerun?

Anything else we need to know about the logistics?

Yes, I'm planning on keeping Ylosani. I'm looking forward to playing the guilt he feels over losing his first party.

Which seems weird when I type it out...

like a bachelor party gone really wrong

What happens in a remote cottage in magically frozen woods stays in a remote cottage in magically frozen woods...

...as do the corpses of many of the people it happens to.

I will be around for the rerun, starting completely over, or from the last part?

I think that, especially if Ylosani will be doing this again, we almost have to continue from the last part.

Is that cool from a PFS chronicle sheet perspective?

It seems the most logical story at this point is that the new party are the adventurers that heeded Ylosani's call at the tavern, and that we're returning to the Lodge together to clear it out, and find out why a necromancer has set up shop there in this sudden winter.

Concur.

Or, I suppose at this point...

Brrrraaaaaaiiiinnnnnnssss

(I have a mercenary warpriest of Gorum, who swings a mean Lucerne hammer, queued up and ready to rock. Since we never made it to a chronicle I assume we can just recycle our PFS ID again?)
