Serpent Skull- Beer and Pretzels (Inactive)

Game Master drbuzzard

Dr. Buzzard, could you kindly kick the wrong avatar from the game please?

This "set as default alias" is very misleading somehow.
Really hope they get a function where you can just set an alias to a game soon.

Limited posting abilities over the weekend.

That's fine.

leveled up, full rested, and removed the offending spell (replaced with Remove Fear). I also have the spell Air Bubble from Ultimate Combat, is that one OK or should I swap it out for some other core spell?

Sorry, I will try and get leveled up over the next couple of days, changing work has taken a serious bite out of how much time I have to post.

Updated my character. Sorry for slow posting lately, way too much work.

Updated as well.

Computer at home has broken down, until fixed posting depends on other devices with unreliable availability.
Hope to have this fixed soon :(

So the spells Enlarge person, barkskin, heroism and protection from evil, are they still active on Ivar?

yes

Enlarge person and protection from evil is minutes per level, so 6 minutes. The other 2 are 10 min/level, so 60 minutes.

As is to be expected with the time of year, posting tends to drop, and I don't mind. We will continue at whatever pace is convenient till after New Years.

For Christmas pick a potion of up to 2nd level to have in your stocking.

cool, thanks. Merry Christmas everyone.

Thanks Buzz! I'll take Invis..

hmmm, cure moderate wounds, just in case.

Also, I said that Ivar continued the way they were going, not really sure which direction that was, what's next?

You have a map of the outpost linked. Give me a destination.

ok, so were we at "W"?

Yes we were at W on the map. Lets keep heading towards the middle (north), so going on the north west trail to S2.

I found a potion of levitate in my stocking, after staring down that well and realizing I'd never get out of there if I accidentally fell in.

Happy new year everyone!

I'm very undecided on the potion, no idea atm except a healing potion.
Taking suggestions or wishes for the party!

I began playing pathfinder four and a half years ago here on-line. It has been a wonderful time but I believe that journey has ran its course and come to an end. I am in a dozen games and I feel that those I have been playing with deserve an explanation for my decision to leave the games at this time.

When I started playing I was working nights; alone, bored and able to post for several hours a day. Posting at work was the perfect opportunity to be involved with others and create together. I was able to check the games regularly from home as well, due to fewer responsibilities at that time.

In October I left that job and have started working at a call center where I am talking to people all day long. Not only has my ‘posting time’ been cut to almost nothing. But the time I spend communicating with others has increased exponentially. Also, my RL responsibilities have increased significantly. Both mine and my wife’s mothers have been diagnosed with dementia and we spend a couple hours a day caring for them.

My posts have become shallow, my characters one dimensional. I am not happy with how I am playing, nor with what I am getting accomplished in RL with what little ‘down time’ I have. I appreciate the stories we have shared together. I know the games will continue, I will read along when I can. I wish everyone good luck and a good year.

drbuzzard, it's been a good run, your character 'Nils' was in a game with 'Wulfgar' back in 15, I've really enjoyed playing with you. I hope things go well for you.

Sorry to see you go, but life does come first.

Now I suppose we need to find a replacement.

Sad to see you go Ivar, was fun to play with you!
Since i'm working in a similar field i can totaly understand though.

@drbuzzard: you'll probably open a new recruitment? Should we promote it a bit with other known players?
And would you care for deactivating players and characters not participating anymore on the campaign tab? Makes the whole thing a bit easier to overlook, especially for newcomers who wouldn't know who's still playing or not.

If anyone still wants to follow the game they can list it and get updates.

Yeah, I'll have to clear out the no longer playing. If you know of anyone who might be interested, let them know we need a front liner.

Some cleaning out would be good^^
I'll crosspost in some other games with reliable players.

Funnily i thought about asking to switch to a bard several times to better cheerlead Ivar lately :D

It's only Hindi, Malok and me left, is that right?
Life Oracle, saurian shaman druid and serpentine Arcanist?

Correct.

Drbuzzard for the PFS credit all's you need is a PFS # and to sign, date and scan the chronicle to a pdf and post it for download, when we're done the book of the AP.

If you don't have the # I can get it for you. That's it.

We aren't using PFS legal characters, for example the ABP is not sanctioned for PFS.

I'm a bit fuzzy on it. I thought you could play a module however you like, then get PFS credit to move to a PFS character of choice. I may be wrong though.

You're correct. You can play an Adventure Path say in 5e and still get credit for an official PFS character. It's called "campaign mode"

You can get credit for book 1 if you guys finished that.

I'm going to a convention early tomorrow morning till Sunday late afternoon. Please bot me as needed.

Not sure what the hell is going on with the website, but that last post was from me. All of a sudden, my web browser said I was logged in as that other person.

That is indeed very troublesome. You should urgently contact customer care about it!
Because it literally means you could have downloaded their stuff and your stuff could be downloaded by someone else, with grave consequences!

As a fair warning to my games. I've got something flu like currently and got a new puppy last week, so if I'm a bit lacking in updates, I apologize and will try to get back to my regularity soon.

hope you feel better soon

Malok has decided to bow out (due to a general declining interest in gaming). Anyone know of someone who wants into a game like this?

Seems lke stable people are really hard to come by nowadays...

If you decide you're willing to give PFS credit (I'm REALLY hoping you are) you might post on the Flaxseed PFS thread. I'm sure you could get one or two people?

By the way I'm at a conference through the end of the week. RootsTech in Salt Lake City, Utah if anyone was interested. I'm still checking in on the game but limited posted during the daytime conference hours. Then driving all day in the snow on Sunday.

I'm going to be away for the weekend to ski, so little will happen in updates. I'll find a 4th then.

Who's left anyway?
Hindi, Rubani and me?
We keep loosing players here somehow.

I think we're coming to the more interesting part of the AP soon.
Maybe that changes stuff

I'm here.

Bahari signing in for duty!

So, I have to decide if I like the Jungle Druid archetype vs the normal Druid. I give up 2 levels of Wildshape to get some pretty neat bonuses in Jungle Terrain.

Worth it?

I guess that depends on how you want to play your druid. Personally, I'd go with whichever variant you think you'll enjoy playing more. I don't see that either one is innately better in this scenario. If you really like going nuts in wild-shape, go standard. If you like the idea of slinging more spells, a bit less wild-shaping, and being one with the jungle, go Jungle Druid.

While a lot of this AP is in the jungle, at the higher levels, it won't be. It's up to you if you want to sacrifice for current bonuses.

Hail all. Glad to be chosen!

I am driving for the next two days heading to AdeptiCon. I'll be at the Con in classes painting minis all day for five days, then another two days of driving back. Just so you know, my postings will be a little interrupted but I will try to catch up at least once a day (probably at night).

Hindi, that sounds pretty cool!
Could you take and post some pics?
And some pics from your minis?
I'm interested :)
