GM Matt, I hope you don't mind if I improve the Elven society a little.

It's in the open now, Ithriel. There's no turning back: Baster trusts you in these matters ;-) !

Sorry, I'm to busy laughing at Baster and Ithriel's conversation to post right now. XD

I just want to thank all of you internet people for brightening my day with your conversations (or lack thereof...)
And oh dear lord, shipping... that's a phrase on the edge of a deep, deep rabbit hole, friends...
The world of fanfiction both scares and amuses me greatly (my girlfriend is somewhere far off in it). It's staggering to realize that nearly every work of fiction has its own volume several times over in fan-created material.

And to find that fraction you have to wade through things that would strain Azathoth's sanity and sense of outrage.

What is this fanfiction you speak o--- OH GOD MY EYES AND BRAIN AND ALL THAT I HELD SACRED!!!
Another of my favourites in regards to fanfic: "Oooooo... Right in the childhood."
Thank you everyone for making this campaign so... unique and special. And no problem Ithriel, in fact, anyone who wishes to make up fun racial facts is free to do so. I'll keep those things in mind.
And Baster, that was the best explanation of Cabin 5 I could have hoped for.

I'm pleased to please :-).
And "Cabin 5" has a nice ring to it. One could imagine something along that dialogue (between Lisa and Beth):
- So Lisa, you're actually saying that you and him... ?
- Yes, girl : Cabin 5 !
This is seriously heading to our own Seekers of the Grail Meme Page...

Haha. Baster reading your post it brought an image of two black ladies fixing their weave in the bathroom or something and one being like
"Lisa, no you didn't!" then the other like, "MMMMMMMMMhmmmmmm, girl! Cabin 5." Lol.

I'm now capable of accessing the Advanced Race Guide thanks to our local gaming store, so you may use archetypes/options from this book.

[offtopic] How does it look? I'm getting my grubby little mits on the hardcover as soon as they are stocked in Australia [/offtopic]
It's pretty nice actually, I love the new archetypes and the race by race section, the race builder is pretty neat as well.

Any idea when it will be added to the SRD? I haven't been able to look at it, and won't until my job situation clears up.
No clue Tim... I'm not sure how much I'm allowed to repost here without infringing either, but if you want to know something and I can post it let me know.

But...
I'll be back [uttered menacingly, in true villain fashion] !

yesterday was a fairly big American holiday. there were lots of explosions and barbecues.

The only fireworks here were off magic island. They've banned everything else.
Man, do I miss the 4th of July... it's not really celebrated up here in Cold Canada.

I miss it too. I forgot it was even happening until half way through the day here in China. Nobody even said happy 4th to me.

I'm still here, It's just that Me and Endrian kind of wrote ourselves out of the scene...
And interestingly enough, Leylyn has fireworks in game. Need to find a good time to set them off. She bought them to celebrate the slaying of the dragon thing.

I'm still here too. Waiting on Tiny's reaction to me unlacing my pants. Guess I'm just checking in till then.
HP 22/25, AC 20, F +4, Ref +2, W +1, Init +1
I'm here, but Leon doesn't have much to add to the investigation. After the chastisement he got earlier he's going to let others handle the policework.
He would like to learn how the airship works though.

I'm here, obviously. I WILL have Keddemas answer Baster, in spite of his delaying tactics x-).

Hmm, I just want to be sure, GM Matt: is my last Tuesday post appearing in the in game thread - the post where Baster adresses Keddemas ?
I'm asking because for a couple of days some time ago the thread would not update itself for me (by some bizarre internet or Paizo forum quirk).

Yeah, Leylyn and Endrian are a little preoccupied.
As for fireworks: Set them all off at once. It will be awesome.

Tim, I noticed you said that the pilot should try to go over the storm. That would work in a modern airplane, but we're a lot more screwed in a blimp.
Here's how storms work
Take a look at the altitude. The place where a thunderhead flattens out and dissipates is at about 45,000 feet. The air temperature that high is about -60 degrees. By the time we got that high we'd be soaked, which means that if we managed not to freeze to death, we'd still get yanked out of the sky by the weight of the ice.
An interesting and fun little cold weather survival tip is called the "Rule of 30", which says that at -30 degrees win a 30 mph wind an unprotected human will freeze to death in 30 seconds.
Basically, at higher altitudes the cold kills us and at lower altitude the winds do. Historically speaking, blimps don't tend to survive storms.
Leon and Tim don't know any of that though. :)

What if someone has Endure Elements?

HP 22/25, AC 20, F +4, Ref +2, W +1, Init +1
That would probably work.
Don't think you can cast it on the blimp though. You might not freeze, but the icing would still be a big problem. Hope you have Feather Fall.
M Human 1 Mnk 2Sorc [AC 16/20 CMD17] [F3R6W7] [HP16]
But with magic, the ice, while still a problem, is less of a problem and we can all be chipping away it anyway.
HP 22/25, AC 20, F +4, Ref +2, W +1, Init +1
Who's going to cast it that many times? Looking over your list and the other caster's lists, I don't think any of us can cast it, especially not enough times to protect us all.

It was more of a theoretical exercise and planning for the next visit to town. ;)
HP 22/25, AC 20, F +4, Ref +2, W +1, Init +1
Planning on getting to the next town is exactly what we're trying to do here. :)
If we could cast Animate Object on the blimp I think it would count as a creature. Then we could cast Endure Elements on it. :D

Couldn't help but picture the seen in Iron Man, where Obadiah chase Tony up to max altitude.
"Nice try Tony, but my suit is more advanced and superior in every way."
"How'd you solve the icing problem?"
"Icing problem?" Iron Monger's systems go offline.
"Might want to look into it."
HP 22/25, AC 20, F +4, Ref +2, W +1, Init +1
Unfortunately we haven't solved the icing problem :)
I'll be out of town for a week starting tomorrow. I'll be able to post from my phone but it will be less frequent. Don't let me hold up the game.
No problem. And I'm no storm expert either so I'm just going with what I'd imagine a serious storm would be like. Note, the dirigible cannot fly above the clouds. Visibility and control are too much of a problem currently.

Riders on the storm, indeed !
I've had the song in my head since the beginning of the storm scene; I was thinking about Endrian and Leylin, actually.
Anyway, thanks for bringing the song out in the open, Leylin :-) !

Man these last posts feel good.

This campaign continues to be a blast :-) !
Gm Matt, I won't be able to post tomorrow and the day after. I'm going to a friend's wedding.
I trust you entirely with Baster. Remember: he's evil but he means good... or is it the other way around ?
Just kidding :-). Do as you want.
Good game to all of you, chaps ! It's a pleasure to play in such company ^_^

Ithriel, that was a very unexpected and satisfying vision you just shared with us. I enjoyed it very much.
