Dotting, I'll have an alias up soon.

Edit: Alias is up, profile to follow.

Edit, the second: profile is up, post in Gameplay thread to follow.

If I recall rightly... we are going with all spears (save longspear) are one-handed. I used the stats for Spear (1d8 DAM ; 20/x3 ; 20' range) which is considered a two-hand weapon according to the book. Should I amend the damage any, change to a different spear, or leave the stats alone and just call it a one-handed weapon?

What I'm looking for is a spear that can be used for melee and throwing.


The spear maintains all it's stats, except that it is a one handed weapon. It still does 1d8 DMG, 20/x3 crit, and has a 20 ft range. This is due to spear and shield being a highly common tactic of the day.

Hi everyone! Timandra checking in with avatar. Still looking at images so the pic may change.


Male Half-Elf Ranger(Beast Master)/ 1

Here is Mentu. I still have a question about which type of Outsiders are common and would mountain or underground be more common terrains.

Telekleia, any objection to Ariston either regularly or occasionally using the spear two-handed since he doesn't carry a shield?

No. You'd get 1 1/2 times str bonus as normal with no other effects.

Sounds reasonable to me. Thanks much.

I'll have Ariston's character sheet up later this evening.

Ariston is done.

Question:
Rather than do a wall of text, I figured this question would be better in a spoiler. The issue is feat interpretation - specifically the interaction between Channel Energy, Alignment Channel: Evil, and Channel Smite. The question is: does Alignment Channel: Evil work within a Channel Smite? The Channel Smite definition provides an example of the power being used to hammer undead... which could be its absolute limit or just an example. However, Alignment Channel modifies what types of creatures can be damaged by channeled energy. In the past, I've seen these abilities combined - so that if a character can channel blast evil outsiders, any other Channel feat is modified by it. In this scenario, Channel Smite could be used to damage an evil outsider in place of an undead.

So, I'd like to know how you'd rule on this matter. Thanks!


I'd allow it.

Grand! Ariston is all set to go then. If you want any format changes or additional information in his character sheet, lemme know.


I have some IRL stuff to take care of. Campaign starts in the evening. Be prepared to jump straight into a combat encounter.

:D

You just made my day. Bring it.


Can't wait for this evening. Hopefully I have an open computer when the time comes around.

Edit: Wrong Alias.


Aw, s!@!! Writer's block! Dammitdammitdammitdammitdammitdammitdammitdammitdammitdammitdammitdammitdam mitdammitdammitf~&#!

lol. It happens at the most inconvenient times, doesn't it? ;)


Male Half-Elf Ranger(Beast Master)/ 1

We all walk into a whatever ancient Greece had for a tavern?(yes this is a joke.) It cool writer blocks happens.


Eidolon

We wake up naked chained to the wall in a jail cell.

Stop telling them about my weekend. :)

How about, "A mysterious stranger offers you a lot of gold for what should be a very simple errand..."


Male Half-Elf Ranger(Beast Master)/ 1

Mentu would not really go for the gold so that would leave him out. How about a king asks us to do something for him?


What about a pissed off cyclops in the city market?

Ding! Ding! We have a WINNER. :)

I was thinking we roll out of the bath-house, totally drunk hefting amphoras of wine (cuz that's how Paladins roll), and we stumble across 9 Vrocks doing a Dance of Ruin... but hey, a cyclops works too. I'm not picky.

Are talking about Cyclops that are eating people's heads off or Cyclops that are breaking buildings?

Neither. He's picking his teeth after a good meal... using the spear from the last group of heroes that took exception to his presence in town.

BOTH.

Coming out of the bath-house wasted is approved. What could be more badass than fighting cyclops in the town market while drunk?

I just need some time to advance the cyclops stats for a level appropriate encounter.

Well, make it easy on yourself - just use the Greater Cyclops and triple his CR. CR:36 should be enough to make drunk characters sufficiently sober. :)


Holy cow.. how did I miss the recruitment on this one? This is a fun-sounding concept, Telekleia!

You mind if I lurk (and possibly dot) your game thread?


So. Is this a mixed bath we're coming from? I feel we're significantly high-level to have had a bath dedicated to us. :P


Aasimar Cleric 17 | HP 105/105 | Init +4; Perc +21 (Darkvision) | TEMP AC 35 (T19 FF30) | CMD 27/23 CMB +13 | Fort +15 Ref +16 Will +23 (+2 vs charm/compulsion) | Resist: Acid/Cold/Electricity 5 Buffs: Ring of Force Shield, Life Bubble, Shield of Faith, True Seeing

We are Ikarian. We always bathe in large groups. :)


My point is, is it a mixed male/female bath, or are they separate.

Separate baths are for barbarians!

Totally missed the OOC thread O.o dotting.

Thinking the thread died or something


Any news in here? I'm not trying to rush you, I'm just checking to see that it's still going on.


Anything at all?


Lazy ass.

...That was aimed at myself.


I see. So this is still going on, right?


Male Half-Elf Ranger(Beast Master)/ 1

It is cool Telekleia.
Hey Agathangelos I have a question. Why is your avatar a chick but your character say male?


I made my character in HeroLab, and forgot to change gender. I'll fix that real quick.

Edit: I also had the wrong Alignment down. I ended up, mid-build, making a variant for a DM I know, and that was a vestige of the NPC. Fixed now.


Uuuh...

S%@!. Does somebody want to be Assistant Game Master? I need help setting things up.

Anyone email you yet?


I did, literally just as you posted.


Male Half-Elf Ranger(Beast Master)/ 1

Nice I was off doing stuff so did not see Telekleia's post until I posted.


Sorry, guys. I got caught up in other things. Like the Voyager supplement for Pathfinder. That, and Napoleon Total War. There is a WW1 mod out for it now. Such greatness. It's very much a WIP, but so far it's great. I also got me an American Civil War mod for Empire Total War. As you can probably guess I am very busy.

What I'm really doing:
Fighting Yankees, fighting Germans, making Steampunks, and ignoring my RPs. Bad Katrina. Very bad.

Edgar and I are working on figuring out a way to advance a monster to CR 15 for this RP.


Right. So, too more people to post before we can act.


So, Timandra's the last one who needs to post.


Eidolon

Sorry for the delay lost internet and still haven't got it back. Posting this from my phone. Sorry for the inconvenience.


Telekleia, if I may make a suggestion, it often makes PBP combat easier if the DM rolls all intiatives at the beginning of combat, so that everyone can act in initiative order, and the initiative order will be all in one place when you go to resolve the round.


Got it. I'll do that now.
