So I lied :p
Discussion is up! Feel free to talk among yourselves, in or out of character. Figure out if you know each other or if you will be meeting for the first time!
Liar, liar, plants for hire.
Gameplay will be up in approximately 12 hours.
HOW DARE YOU LIE TO ME! LIAAAAR!!
Anyway, congrats to all for being selected! Let's hope this is a fun game and everyone has fun adventuring together.
Thank you very much for this opportunity, GM Wasted!
It's nice to meet everyone. My name is Simon. I look forward to having my character, Raven Zarelli, become friends with the whole party. I'd love to discuss any possible character connections, or answer any questions about him. His Campaign Trait Family Ties could cause trouble, but I think it's really fun! Raven is not a fighter at all. He is purely support as befits his nature. I hope to be useful!
In terms of teamwork and tactics, he is a bit strange. He is a Varisian Pilgrim Cleric. Along with the standard Selective Channel Healing, he has an ability called Caravan Bond; this ability allows him to use his Domain Powers on an ally within 30 feet, rather than Touch range. At 1st level he can only affect 4 allies, so I plan to Bond Selaros, Calin, Lynleera, and Mary. Don't worry Sizma, I can still use them at short range, which should be easy if we're both behind the front line.
His Domain Abilities are Bit of Luck and Touch of Good. The former allows you to roll twice and take the better of any d20 roll (meaning multiple) for 1 Round. Touch of Good gives you my 1/2 Level bonus to all (again, multiple) Attack Rolls, Skill Checks, Ability Checks, and Saving Throws for 1 Round. I have 6/Day of each. I prioritize Bit of Luck as it is mathematically superior at Level 1, though Touch of Good becomes competitive later on.
He can only affect 1 ally at a time as usual with Domain Powers, but his other feat is Combat Advice. This allows him to use his Move Action to give a +2 Competence Bonus on the next (only the first) attack that ally makes . To maximize efficiency, he will select separate targets for the Domain Power and Combat Advice each round.
My apologies for the excessive detail! This is mostly to show what he'll be doing in advance so there are no surprises during the game, because it is unusual.
With me, SoS spells and a little bit of other fun goodies. For instance, Daze right now is about a nice 16-17 DC Save. As well, I'll be taking the Human Favored Class bonus to get even more spells known.
Lynleera here is a unique character. She is able to cast some spells, able to sweep herself into melee, and is educated in certain limited fields (mostly that of ancient Thassilon). She's meant to be a well-rounded character to fill in where needed for the most part.
I'll look forward to be playing with you all, it's the first time in a while I have enjoyed reading all the applies for this campaign.
I will be your switch hitter perfering to toss weapons while the enemy closes with me. As I am playing the vigilante you will see my post from 2 alias during this campaign, this alias is my social persona, and The Desna Knight is my other.
Where is everyone from? I play from Denmark so I expect my time is a bit ahead of our GM, but that is useal not a problem in my experience.
Eastern Seaboard of the United States. Hagerstown, Maryland to be specific.
Near the middle of the United States, though that may be changing in a few months if I move to the west coast. My fiancee and I are currently looking to open a game shop out there but that is still months away (though we have began to look into all the nitty gritty details).
I am in San Diego, California. It is West Coast USA. :)

And here is Sizma's familiar, Blake.
Which, hilariously, is my real name. So that should be fun :p
Calin Moonbreeze here checking in, Tactically, I plan to be your front line damage soaker/giver. Socially I am more your're quiet shy type, better with animals for the moment than people. While I live in the central part of the US I work overnight at a very boring job, and dont sleep much ( I think i average about 4 hours currently ) So hopefully I have plenty of time to post.
I have been active on paizo's boards for close to three years now, have been in a few games that are past their two year mark and look forward to playing with you all!
As far as possibly knowing him before hand, He works for Mr. Hosk at the stables learning the trade so to speak, is a member of the town militia and has been living in Sandpoint probably for well over a year. He does on occasion spend a night or two in a tavern, mostly the Rusty Dragon since it is right next door to the stables, though he has occasionally made his way down to the hagfish.
After a bit of trouble with a local sczarni tough outside the Feedbag has him avoiding that place. As one of the half dozen or so half-elfs in the town its possible that most of you at least 'know' of a sizable half - elf who works at the stables, If any of you want to have someone you know know in the city im open for that as well.

That obviously means it would be bad luck if you kill him. Don't hurt the cat! :P

Nice to meet you!
Raven technically is Sczarni, which could make him look untrustworthy to Calin. However, he is one of the friendliest Sczarni you'll ever meet. I don't know how much pull Raven will have with the Sandpoint gang, but we might be able to solve your problem at the Feedbag.

*lawls*
Naw you should be fine as far as trust goes Raven, He does sort judge folks based off of their own merits. The only people he looks a little sideways at are probably folk mean to animals and those who like to cause trouble.
If it makes you two californian's feel any better I used to be one myself, I was born in Fresno, and lived there off and on (well NAS Lemoore) most of my young life, only moved out this way because at the tail end of my stint in the service (Army) I got involved with this lovely Air force lass who is stationed out here at Scott Air force base.
Calin looks like I might have a flanking buddy in you, maybe I should consider being a stalker vigilante instead of avenger :p
Wasted can you make some last minut adjustments before we start?
Since most of you are from the states it looks like I'll be around 8-10 hours ahead of most.
If you want to s@%@ archetypes it's fine by me
Whoops. Misspelled shift :p
The archetypes mostly work around becoming a 6th caster or The Hulk :p The warlock is nice but I like to try the vanilla vigilante.
I just thought on changing the vigilante specialization and maybe move my +2 wisdom to int or cha.
Fine by me
Lynleera Sunwhisper I think you might have forgot to change you ac bonus, says +5 dex. I guess you started with 20 dex and changed it later for more int :)
I just noticed it, when I was checking my team to figure out if I should stay a full bab class or be a "sneak attack" class for this campaign.

Good catch, missed it when I was fiddling with my stats in character creation.
Ok guys. I'm going to go live with the game thread in just a minute. If any of you are familiar with ROTRL, this isn't going to be a 100% standard campaign. I have extra stuff written, have altered the gender and changed what happens with some NPCs. Just so you're aware.
Well. Sorry, guys, but something is wrong with this thread. It's not letting me post in gameplay! So I created a new campaign thread over in PbP.
Link is here.
Gameplay thread is live! We'll be using that from now on. Sorry for the inconvenience!
I made it go!
Hello! Hello!
This is the Wisp! This sneaky half-elven rogue thinks of herself as something of a hero. She takes from the rich, or better off, and gives a portion to the less fortunate. She isn't quite a Robin Hood, but if you were to ask her she'd argue that shes pretty close, and more foxy.
Hopefully, as the story progresses she won't get her pretty face caught in too many traps. Too bad masks don't add to AC.
As for where I am, I live in Central Wisconsin. Spring has finally sprung and the weather is finally enjoyable.
I had a head ache that was just terrible last night. Been spending the whole night and now day in some pain. Feeling a bit better now but last night was a pain.
That royally sucks, Sizma. I suffer the occasional migraine that results in near blindness and a tendency not to keep food down. Hope you get to feeling better right quick.
It's good to see everyone! :)

Sorry to hear that, Sizma. I hope you get well soon.

Thank you. I get 'em every odd month or so when the seasons are changing and such. It's a big 24-36 Hr. period of time of intense pain and loss of balance and thought. Nothing medically serious about it fortunately.
Hey Wisp welcome to the party, good to have a rogue.
Do you mind if I ask, why you are not using the Unchained?
Just a heads up everyone, I just opened my own recruitment for Iron Gods, so be sure to check it out!

Yes, sure you can and the answer is simple. I forgot about that book.

That AP looks exciting!

I might look into it, would you throw a link so I know I find the right one?
@Wisp- if you'd prefer to switch to an Unchained Rogue that's fine by me

Feeling better now. My real life familiar, a skinny and orange cat named Pumpkin, slept on my head while I slept the pain out.
yay pumpkin! Cats are sometimes sweet like that. The one time i've been pretty badly sick in my life, my poor Clawdia (a british shorthair calico who is bulemic) spent two days on my bed when she wasnt out hunting crickets, grasshoppers, and one mouse to bring to me for food... (at least I think that was her intention its hard to tell)

Pumpkins crazy. He chases his tail, always on the move, talks to inanimate objects that he'll pick up from my room and drag them out to His knows where.

Your cat sounds like my dog, way to much energy and whenever I drop something she is gone with it instantly.
May have to take that offer for the Iron Gods AP. The one I was in barely lasted a worth 3 pages of pbp. People aren't posting and the GM sadly isn't now either.
@Wisp- if you'd prefer to switch to an Unchained Rogue that's fine by me
It's an easy tweak and would benefit Wisp a lot, so sure!
Does anyone here draw or doodle as a hobby?
I do.
| 2 people marked this as a favorite. |
I do.
We should put pictures up on here occasionally, Runelord related of course.
It's great to see everybody! Glad you're feeling better, Sizma. I love all animals, including both cats and dogs. My family has only ever adopted dogs, but I took care of my neighbor's cat while they were on vacation. It was great! They are really cool.
I've been able to keep up with all my PbPs, and one of them is a short PFS Scenario that is moving along at an awesome pace. We may possibly be finished by the end of the month. May I apply to your Iron Gods too, DM Alistair? It would be extra fun to run into some familiar faces from here. :)
