Eaton will spend more time on Phaedra, rather than sleeping with the easy Half-Elf, but there are allusions that he will return to riddleport and that next time...
GP now = 555gp
Eaton is now completely updated and ready for prerusal.
WHOOPS! And Masterwork craftsman's tools for armoring and weaponing!
MW Tools 55gp
GP now = 500gp total.
Long term campaign stuff - Season 1:
* Conceptualize the idea of the Iron Mage (need some research material or a seed IC I think, to make it happen).
* Eaton's father dies.
* Either resolve tension with Phaedra, or have the arrogant lord get a slap in the face.
Why settle for just one of those two? May as well aim for both the slap and tension resolution. That seems the typical way things go in books.
Of course! What was I thinking!?
:D
Some things I'd like to see happen in the campaign...
*Delve deeper into Emilia and Edgar's relationship.
*Maybe his secret pirate background could come back to cause him grief.
Is Eaton going to miss the first two or three rounds of combat while trying to finish the flag?
been slammed by a norwalk flu flying around London. Be back up tomorrow, then probably no update this weekend as I'll be out of town.
Oh, Eaton - For sake of ease, and because the pilot checks were basically three "prep rounds" (I use time pretty fast and loose in PbP when it isn't combat) and I don't want to penalize you for having an original idea - I don't see why you can't finish the flag by your turn in intiative.
Yay!
The antipaladin and Eredin are currently fifteen ft. off of the three party members on the Star. Eaton's on the rail, Emilia and Phaedra are still on the Sterncastle. (Actually Emilia's run to her cabin, :P.... we'll get to that.)
Lol, I'm giving until late afternoon my time before I advance to round 3 for Phaedra and Eaton. So maybe that won't backfire into Edgar's face.
Two things: Normally I would stand by my call, because it was a mistake I made, but because this is supposed to be a rather harrowing fight, I'm going to retcon the results of my last post. Sorry Tellar. [/ooc]
Phaedra - Finding the rope and tying it would be a full action, so the swim check will count as round 3.
No worries. Thought I'd give it a try. :-)
That being the case, the blackguard would get his round 2 attack off as well as the AoO it sounds like, unless him coming on deck was his round 2.
He got it... and sucked at it. :p The dice are as fickle as a stormy sea!
By the way: This whole fight scene should be read and written to soundtracks from the Pirates Trilogy. (>.> or maybe the mediocre 4th one)
And I'm also curious: Has anyone figured out the inspiration for Emilia and Eredin? My only hint will be that its from an old Paizo product.
If he'd missed you he would have gone -right- over the edge, and that would have been -awesome- heroage, Tellar... but we -just- happened to feature that particular issue three different times in my homegame this weekend. ;p
I stopped a thug from grappling my summoner.
Our goblin rogue got stopped trying to trip a skeleton.
Our mermaid stopped a bull-rush from an angry villager.
In our home game, yes, it is ruled that you can hold a charge indefinitely so long as you don't use that hand for anything else during the time you're holding the charge, which includes grabbing falling comrades and climbing ladders (grapple and climbing rolls suffer a -4 penalty IIRC?) while the charge is held. I was just about to do the same thing with a Chill Touch with Eaton.
Rennick:
I'm guessing the bard and her brother from the Sandpoint adventure? The bard who just -happens- to turn out to be a hell of a lot more noble than we ever could have imagined?
Good guess Eaton, but no. Think earlier (not by too much though. ) in fact I think this pair inspired the bard and her brother.
Hmm, all of a sudden, improved bull rush is a much better feat...
Mermaid pc?
Everyone but Eaton goes before me so I'm gonna wait and see what happens before posting my action. If Sin is able to drop the Blackguard, that will be a big determinate to what I do. Me and my 1 hp lol.
Yeah, we're playing a freaks and Geeks Campaign and just got to Level 4.
Mermaid Barbarian (Brutal Pugilist) 1/ Monk (Martial Artist) 3, uses the Fleet feat. Just reached Land Speed 30. Swim speed 75.
We also have a goblin whip-master, all about the dirty tricks and improved trip.
And my Mirror Blade, playtesting the variant summoner class for my new supplement. Trades Spell-Casting for Ranger combat styles and teamwork feats, and gets a few evolution points of their own (few = 1/odd level).
I don't think I know anything before Rise of the Runelords!
Just to make sure we avoid a duel, Edgar my line was a flowery way of talking about healing you, not advice to go slap the other guy. ;-) I was attempting that subtle movie-style dialogue but it didn't translate well in the PBP format.
What I'm saying is, Don't challenge the man to a duel lol!
Hahaha, no I think that his misunderstanding fits well with where his mind is. Don't worry though, Edgar is not going to challenge anyone to a duel!
having some technical issues with my laptop guys, hopefully be able to update today.
Hey folks, just realized it has been almost a week since my last update and wanted to apologize. I was trying to get my notes for Magnimar consolidated, and some work on Absalom (Which I may also be using for a home game) and then that collided the the aforementioned computer issues and some personal and school problems, (It has been an awesome week let me tell you.)
Anyways, I expect this next post to take a bit and it keeps getting put off, so sorry! I should have it up by late morning today (GMT as always)
No worries and I hope things smooth out for you. Basically describing my situation about 3 weeks ago, totally get real life hitting below the belt.
Waiting on Phaedra for this one, I'll update tomorrow no matter what.
Phaedra has hit her 7 day mark and has been sent her 2nd warning via the Paizo PM system. It is this way that I will be sending warnings now.
I want to be clear on this: I get that real life gets in the way, stuff comes up, priorities shift and sometimes you just don't feel up to playing. But I don't think I'm being unfair in wanting to be kept informed if you are going to be absent, even of it's a may like "sorry but I need some time, won't be posting for a bit."
If I don't hear from he by tomorrow I will be posting up an ad for a replacement player.
Sorry for the absence. Wasn't exactly something planned to give forewarning about. More of things that just kept popping up.
It's okay, I always hate writing the "guys stay in touch" notes because it sounds very Pontificating DM to me. I would much rather keep you (or any of you) as a player than try to fill your spot of play without you.
That said I stand by it. I understand more than anyone of things popping up, but in a world of emails and Iphones there's few reasons why a two second msg can't happen. There are always exceptions of course, but this is my general opinion. I hold the same philosophy with my real life games as well. Real life happens and it tends to happen alot, just try to be as courteous to your fellow players and DM's as possible. ^_^
On that note: I have priority for our next play coming up next week, and am fighting with my province over student loans while I study in a different country, so if I do go off the face of the earth that's why - though I'm hoping it won't happen.
Just thought I'd say kudos to Eaton. I've really enjoyed your varied and inventive use of Prestidigitation throughout this game. It's given me dozens of ideas of uses for it in my other games. So hat off to you. :-)
And there are so many more! We actually had a 1001 Prestidigitations thread a while back, and I went all veteran on peoples behinds and pulled out the old Dragon Magazine from the wayback machine. -So- -Many- -Uses-. It'll be sad when half an hour after our invitation to the mayor's house the flowers discorporate in a sprinkling of fairy dust but hey, it's a zero level spell!

"Don't be nervous about the Lord Mayor, alright? I'm sure the Kraken hasn't gotten to -him- too..."
Oh, now you've done it!
I'm saving that "one, two" for the first time she catches him flirting with someone else. ;)
Hey folks!
I've just finished my run on the latest play and closed off my second term (Ahh vacation you feel so sweet) so we will be revving back up into our normal speed and I plan to have an update for both groups by today.
That's -so wierd-. I check the game compulsively whenever I turn a browser on or off or whenever I stop playing something, or when I wake up or go to sleep, so like five times a day...
I made my last post, and then checked until I saw the post about what was going on at Emilia's house... and then lo and behold, somehow I -missed- the one about what was happening with the Lord Mayor until -just now-!?
@.o
Hey guys,
my logbook for my last production is taking a bit longer than I planned (Damn you Mass Effect 3 procrastination!) but I will have our next update up soon, I promise! It's mostly written already.
(Grobaras is really fun to write)
I guess our next objective will be to rescue Phaedra and Tellar from prison. ...And Eaton too, assuming he is not outright killed...
Hopefully things don't actually turn into a fist fight over their. That Mayor does seem to have a lot of info on us for some reason. Not good.
There is reasoning for every secret the mayor has, :D though actually a lot of it, you guys wrote in yourselves in some way. The most prominent is Sinders having attempted to steal from the Lord-Mayor himself.
Honestly, the question may be how he put it all together so quickly. You've been back in Magnimar for about two hours by this point.
I challenge you to a duel. To the death. At dawn.
For my fellow Game of Thrones lovers, the first thing that came to my mind when I read this:
"If you did it your way Lannister, you would win... We're not doing it your way."
-Sigh- Eaton is going to get our Priest, Witch and himself killed... Edgar, looks like we need to start recruiting another party! :P
At least you're already in a Tavern.
Hahahahahaha! That would be that Grobaras - slimy though he may be - isn't stupid and knows that the Charges levied against Phaedra probably won't hold up in court if she can manage to find someone who can competently represent her, as the only evidence against her are the testimonies of a snot-head of a lordling who actually assaulted her.
Sin and Edgar though... well the charges are a lot more... legitimate. Anything more than that you will have to discover in game.
