Our place to joke, chat, ask questions and anything else.
Before we get started, does anyone need anything else from me?
Please Post with your Aliases to check in. thanks everyone!
Tellar checking in. Had to drop the 'e' from the last name, suprisingly Tellar Bronsev'e' was already a taken name. Huh.
Here is Edgar. I noticed a problem with the account saying that my name was already choosen as well, but it made the account, it just won't let me change the profile pic.
Any recommendations on a light martial weapon Proficiency I should take? Having trouble deciding.
Phaedra checking in. I think I've finally settled on my skills and hexes so I'm ready to go.
Hiiiiii... I'm Purplefixer, your local Lawful Evil Rules Vampire. Ask me some questions, and I may or may not tell you lies, at my discression, for anywhere up to 200$ an hour, pro-rated.
I'll be playing Eaton Starse, the Iron Magus. ;p
Well spotted, sir! o.q Monocle smile!
I'm a pretty big comic nerd, you'd need to be a lot more vague to slip one past me, :p
On a much less cool note, I planned on starting today because it's my day off, lots of time to brainstorm the opener... I just got called in. So, I MAY be able to get our opening up tonight, but more likely it'll be tomorrow.
There we are! All included. Fear the mighty spell-power of my Acid Splash!
I'll be waiting with baited breath.
And without tiny shards of metal threatening to kill me by burrowing into my heart in any way. >.>
Yes I want a living suit of armor. No it doesn't need to be painted red and gold. Yes I want to fly and shoot beams out of my hands. The similarities end there! >.> Mostly.
It's an homage! I read the class and went... "Hngh. I could totally do Iron Man if I could find a way to make the armor fl... Oh look, Hexcrafter! Witches can fly as a spell-like ability!"
How could I not? This isn't nearly as bad as my invulnerable Aasimar Monk who shot lazers from his eyes...
Now On Deck: Shield Specialist Fighter with throwing and returning on his shield. Who will in no way be a captain in the Andoran military. Probably.
And I'm not the one who came up with an Alchemist archetype that turns your character giant, purple, and angry! GNOME SMASH!
Because gamers are nerds, and we love to sneak our other hobbies into our gaming. LN Half-Elf Monk. ... Spock much? If at any point the half-elf says 'fascinating' send him to the corner.
Even without the Iron Man reference, the concept sounds like a -blast- to play. Wearable Constructs? Immunity to magic? Shooting Scorching Rays? With secondary BAB? Flying at will (or near enough by 7th level)?! Sign me up!
I have plenty of time, but on that back burner needs to go thoughts for what I'm going to call the construct, if/when I am able to make it. Certainly can't go with Jarvis. ;p
I'm really eager to start the RP and see where it goes, since my combat-inept character with acid splash can basically kill rats if I make the spell-failure chance (assuming manacles) and that's all at the moment. I'm seriously considering dropping my Int by 1 and raising my dex and str by one each... O.o I'd like to live to see 4th level. But I conceptually need SO many skill points. I didn't get to take half the knowledges I wanted, and no spellcraft. I'll be playing catch-up if I can get him to survive to three. But that's part of the fun of first level characters. So much to look forward to, so much to gain, so far to go.
Just cross your fingers no one is knocked overboard trying to tackle a flat-footed half-blind pirate! That happens at first level. Also, people kill things with doors.
And without tiny shards of metal threatening to kill me by burrowing into my heart in any way. >.>
Lol, careful. I've known DM's who've turned smaller statements than that into player requests or ideas.
/me vibrates impatiently in the hopes of being beaten and hurled into the hold like a sack of very valuable grain...
Pirate Leader: "Why should we believe you when you say you're a nobleman?"
Eaton: "Because... unlike SOME player characters, *I* spent a first level feat on it."
All: "OOOOOOOOH!"
So you do Carey Elwes impersonations too? :)
So you do Carey Elwes impersonations too? :)
Of course. Anyone who tells you differently is selling something.
What girl didn't have a crush on him after first watching "The Princess Bride"? :)
Lol, careful. I've known DM's who've turned smaller statements than that into player requests or ideas.
*scribbling furiously in DM notebook* Have fireball explode in Eaton's face, causing damage to heart... if he survives the check... and must be repaired by a clockwork mechanis..*looks up*.... what?
We are officially started! YAY! *kermit dance*
The game is up here: Unhallowed Waters
I'm still working out if we'll be using anything for documents or whatnot and I'll let you know what I need once I have that sorted. for now, go post!
What is this 'senility' of which you speak? Everyone knows that in Pathfinder, old men have sharper vision and hearing, crisper memory, get confused less often, and speak more clearly, and with greater force, than young men! It's how you can tell you're getting closer to dying of old age!
Is this Pre-Ileosa of Korvosa, or Post-Ileosa of Korvosa, btw? (The events of Crimson Throne)
While I haven't worked out every detail of how things happened (Example: Fort Rannick was reclaimed but then pretty much forgotten - you know, like the adventure does itself,) assume that all three of the original "varisian" trilogy have happened. The "Heroes" of the first two APs will be the iconics featured in the books (So for RotRL it'd be Mereisiel, Valeros, Harsk, Seoni and Ezren.) Not sure about the third because I'm running out of Iconics, :p
But yes, it's after the events of Crimson Throne.
Excellent, thank you.
In our campaign, with the death of Ileosa, we animated three of the former lords of Korvosa as Juju Zombies and set them up with disguise/gentle repose amulets to rule the country after Ileosa's death. I'm aware MOST groups would not have had a highly charismatic necromancer on staff and wouldn't have allowed such an incredibly heinous trick. :D
Out of curiosity, who's in charge of Korvosa now? In case Eaton has to spout off about some noble trivia or current event.
thanks for the spoiler tags, I'm currently in a CotCT campaign irl. :)
And for my first trick...
NATURAL 1!
Tadaaaaa!
At least you got that natural 1 out of your system early. Nothing but good rolls from now on. :)
By Cayden's cup! you guys write alot. (Which is awesome)
though there will be a bit of (very minor) editing on my part - specifically in relation to Emilia answering folks.
Things to keep in mind: The bottom of the pit is not filling, think of pouring water on a beach, the sand absorbs it.
the pit is 7 ft deep, So an easy climb out - if not for the pesky wooden cage cover.
I'll be updating when I get home from work.
Wonder if I can get extra attribute points for foot-in-mouth disease...?
Don't forget the little things to make this smoother for us, bolding and putting quotations on your speech and italicizing your thoughts.
and I can see at least 3 seperate ways out of this, :p
Query:
It is not strictly allowed by RAW, BUT...
Can I spend a point from my Arcane Pool to give Eaton's fist +1 attack and damage as a +1 weapon for one minute?
*/me backpats Sin*
Sorry man... what terrible luck. Hope that doesn't continue to pass around the circle. I was hoping to provoke him into climbing down here with us! He looks pretty stewpid.
I'm writhing in antici... (say it... SAY IT!) ... -pation.
Good PbP sure keeps you excited! ;p
Adding Tim Curry impersonations to your list of talents...
It's quite amusing how good your character is at putting his foot in his mouth. :)
INORITE!?
It's like he's trying to be just a little pompous and uncaring, as if he was raised in his own little world where he gets to make all the rules and everyone wants to be near him. ;p
*thumbtwiddles and waits for rennick*
Doobeedoobeedoobee...
Hey, I made it clear I take weekends off, mind yer britches.
Just take it as a compliment to your game that we become impatient for you to once again grace us with your presence. :)
I keep forgetting to ask, will my familiar find me or will I need to find a new one?
:p That's for me to know, and you to find out.
Alrighty, you can post out of order, but I will be writing the results to the order given, so if two people attack the same enemy, the higher initiative takes priority.
ACs and HP for them are posted so you can determine the outcomes of your rolls without needing to wait for me.
You're such a tease. :P
I'll go ahead and give an alternate target in my posts if the first one is down, if that's ok?
Still wondering if you'll let me Arcane Pool enchant my fist.
I find myself often posting lots of "if" and "if not" statements in pbp. having a back up actions always seems to be a good idea, especially it you are a magic user.
Yes I am going to let you do it purple, However per normal rules, your attack will be non lethal and it will provoke an attack of opportunity.
And it's definitely not a bad practice Edgar.
you have improved, my bad. Sadly your roll was crap (Ninja turtle reference aside)
Well spotted! Yes, Ninja Turtles are, quite often, awesome.
I also flubbed my second round. Go me, sucking up gobbo attention. *tanktanktanktank*
:P No metagaming, even if its hidden in witty descriptive banter.
Hey guys,
Today's going to be delayed, for two reasons.
First of all, as I've mentioned before I have a big move coming up, and need to sort and pack.
Secondly, I'm trying to find some new (to me) ways of making my games here run more smoothly, and I'm finally sitting down and figuring out how to use MapTools, so I can have some quick and easy maps for you guys for encounters.
On that note, could everyone put up an email for me, so I can make a google docs (something else I've never used) account for us to upload these maps. thanks!
