Thank you.
<br />
And thank you to the rest of you too.
<br />
Over 200 pages and over 8 years I have been honoured to game with you all. You have brought me hours, weeks of fun and laughter, and always the desire to see "What happens next?"
<br />
You have gotten me through hard days of work, and been there the rare moments I've had time to be bored. Reviewing old posts has always been a pleasurable passtime.</p>
<p>Thank you all.</p>
<p>And I am so looking forward to the next few years of gaming with you all.</p>Joana. Thank you.

<p>Everyone check your <a href="https://www.aonprd.com/Rules.aspx?Name=Placing%20Treasure&Category=Building%20an%20Adventure" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Wealth By Level</a>, if your character is sticking around. New PCs will come in at 6000 gp. Returning PCs can equip themselves up to the same level; there will be adequate explanation for any extra spending that needs to be done in the epilogue. If somehow you happen to have more than 6000, you can keep the overage.</p>Let's call the gameplay thread there.

<p>I'm not sure when / how I'll come out the end of it, but owe all you good sorts better than I've been giving you of late. I'd like to say give it another few weeks and see how I'm travelling... hopefully the door falls down a tad to more level and stable footing.</p>

A Skald is pretty dang cool. I'm in one game with a Skald(I joined about 6 or so months ago) and the other pc's get to ride off the back of the Skald's rage powers if they so choose. It's pretty dang trippin'. That's the only time I've ever been witness to what a Skald can do. I was shocked when I learned that my character(dwarf paladin) could gain the benefits of rage too. I'm like, "Seriously?! Cool." I mean a dwarf paladin with raging benefits?! Doesn't get much better than that, folks. :)</p>I gotta say, I agree with Tendal. A Skald is pretty dang cool.
