Shadows of Numeria (Inactive)

Game Master DireMerc

Numeria has a long history of mystery and wonder buried under its rugged landscape, for on that one fateful night thousands of years ago, the Rain of Stars scarred the land. The fragmented remnants of a ship from beyond the stars fell from the sky, scattering strange technological ruins and deadly perils across the land. Today, these sites are feared by the barbaric tribes and coveted by the sinister spellcasters of the Technic League. Yet something worse than brutish berserker or super-science wizards has risen to power in these hidden technological ruins.

Something stirs in the shadows of Numeria and unless someone figures it out the whole world could be in danger.

Houserules:

Casting: When casting a spell defensivly if you fail you do not automaticly lose the spell, rather you provoke an attack as you normally would for not casting defensive. If you are hit you must make a concentration check dc 10+damage taken if you fail this check you lose the spell.

Rolls:
Many rolls will be handled by the GM in secret.(don't worry, I don't fudge.)
Any result that can influence the character behavior will not be rolled open.
Rolls that will be handled by the GM:
Perception
Sense Motive.

if you make the check I will send you a pm or make a post and put it in a spoiler depending on the situation.

Sometimes I will roll Initiative others I will ask you to roll depending on the situation. In some situation (rarely) I will bypass init entirely and have you all go first and enemies second or have enemies go first and you all go after.

Combat rules:
I'm a fair GM, I dont roll combat in secret, I don't change results, I don't ignore bad calls from the characters.
Sometimes, character dies, but I'm not a player killer, if I think that an encounter will be easy handled, when it should be more challenging, I will make it a more challenging, if the party it's not prepared to face something, I will drop hints, if they insist... well killing one or two players never made me lack sleep...

Actions:
I'm a GM that do not punish the character for trying something new or cool, or even strange. Visual appealing actions are encouraged, the dc will of course depend on what are you trying, but you can try! If what you want to do is wicked cool, I can even bend the game mechanics to allow it! The most importat part is: You are villains. Villains are smart, resourceful and have style! Have you ever seen a memorable villain that could just swing his sword and do nothing more?

Posting Rate
If it could be done, I expect 1/day posting, if you can post more, it will really good.
During weekend, this rule does not apply. If you are able to post, great! But dont stress over this, everyone need some time to rest (In my case, I need time to play and DM :D on my tabletop games).

Level up
Aside from character creation, when you level up, if you want something not from core rulebook, you'll need to search it inside the game. basicly what you need to do is just show in game your character is searching for that knowledge. This rule is not meant to prohibit anything, I just don't like something like this: "Character always as a full caster, never picked up a sword in his entire life, and then he gain a new level and says: Master, I'll level up as a fighter now..."

No hassle about posting. Good luck with the recovery.

Just want to inform you my internet at home has goes crazily unstable. I struggle just to open a web page completely.


Male Werewolf-kin Shaman 3 (17 HP, AC 14/T 11/FF 13, Fort 2, Ref 2, Will 6), Init. +1, Perc +8 (+11 dark), low-lt. vis.

Yes, best of wishes to you.


F Android Slayer lvl 5. HP 46/46, AC 21/16/16, Init+5, Perc.+9, Fort+5 Ref+9 Will+3

Ow....well take care, best of luck to you.


M Dhampir Bloodrager/3 hp: 23/35| AC 18 T 15 FF 13| Fort +5 Ref +5 Will +1; Init +4 Per +8

I hope the surgery is a success and you have a quick recovery.


Operation went well, spending most of my time in bed playing with my tablet now so will try to resume posting.


Actually need you guys to post now. You can head to the temple they will have revived the girl or you can go meet the council and talk with them or enact one of your plans to find the bloodhands.


HP: 46/59, AC: 20:13:20, CMD: 22 Saves: 7:4:5 Skills: Appraise: +9, Dip: +12, Per +10, Sense +10, Stealth +8,

I'm glad the operation went well.
I pray you recover well.


Male Werewolf-kin Shaman 3 (17 HP, AC 14/T 11/FF 13, Fort 2, Ref 2, Will 6), Init. +1, Perc +8 (+11 dark), low-lt. vis.

Traveling. Suggest we split up and visit both.


HP: 37/37; Init: +3; Feral Focus: Bull (+2 Str); Spells used: 1: 5, 2: 1; Arrows: 5/20+20; Teamwork: Coordinated Shot

Xaikon of course will accompany Raskir if we split into two groups.


F Android Slayer lvl 5. HP 46/46, AC 21/16/16, Init+5, Perc.+9, Fort+5 Ref+9 Will+3

Accompanying Valeria.

The socially cold one should observe and learn from the chrismatic one.


M Dhampir Bloodrager/3 hp: 23/35| AC 18 T 15 FF 13| Fort +5 Ref +5 Will +1; Init +4 Per +8

I’m very glad to hear you’re recovering well.

So is Khonnir the druid related to the missing councilor Khonnir Baine? Was that intended to be a clue or just an unintended name reuse?


F Android Slayer lvl 5. HP 46/46, AC 21/16/16, Init+5, Perc.+9, Fort+5 Ref+9 Will+3

If this heads eventually where i 'think' it's heading, Jayla's in for a surprise.


Interesting game to be an android or sure.


F Android Slayer lvl 5. HP 46/46, AC 21/16/16, Init+5, Perc.+9, Fort+5 Ref+9 Will+3

Indeed. I'm going to have a social situation by then.


HP: 37/37; Init: +3; Feral Focus: Bull (+2 Str); Spells used: 1: 5, 2: 1; Arrows: 5/20+20; Teamwork: Coordinated Shot

Turning out to be a rather interesting adventure, even for Xaikon coming into contact with advance technology that is rather alien to her already.

Also playing a flying character is rather different but definitely interesting.

The feral hunter is really fun to play to, can't wait to get to level 4, to begin full transformation to animal forms.


F Android Slayer lvl 5. HP 46/46, AC 21/16/16, Init+5, Perc.+9, Fort+5 Ref+9 Will+3

Picking up guns would be fun, sneak attacking on a plasma rifle......


HP: 37/37; Init: +3; Feral Focus: Bull (+2 Str); Spells used: 1: 5, 2: 1; Arrows: 5/20+20; Teamwork: Coordinated Shot

I will be away from Thursday to Monday with tiny possibility of internet.


Minor announcement I am no longer single. Having a girlfriend is probably going to affect my posting in the future but for now it should be restricted to mostly just the weekends since we live rather far apart and can only see each other so often.


F Android Slayer lvl 5. HP 46/46, AC 21/16/16, Init+5, Perc.+9, Fort+5 Ref+9 Will+3

Nice for you.


HP: 37/37; Init: +3; Feral Focus: Bull (+2 Str); Spells used: 1: 5, 2: 1; Arrows: 5/20+20; Teamwork: Coordinated Shot

Congrats. Really hope it works out well for you.

Congrats, and I pray god blesses you and your girlfriend's relationship.


F Android Slayer lvl 5. HP 46/46, AC 21/16/16, Init+5, Perc.+9, Fort+5 Ref+9 Will+3

GM, nxt time we lvl up, can i change to an archetype?
Part of the question is the lack of hp last lvl and the share of melee we have already, i'd change to a more ranged specced build.

If so, are you charging?


I have no issue with it.


F Android Slayer lvl 5. HP 46/46, AC 21/16/16, Init+5, Perc.+9, Fort+5 Ref+9 Will+3

Thanks, i'm going with a double archetype then at next lvl, sniper & stygian.


M Dhampir Bloodrager/3 hp: 23/35| AC 18 T 15 FF 13| Fort +5 Ref +5 Will +1; Init +4 Per +8

I misread the pirate’s surrender. I’m not quite sure how I did that after seeing it pointed out. Alvoise wouldn’t have attacked a person who was surrendering, but changing his actions after being posted isn’t something I like doing.


HP: 46/59, AC: 20:13:20, CMD: 22 Saves: 7:4:5 Skills: Appraise: +9, Dip: +12, Per +10, Sense +10, Stealth +8,

I was the same as Alvoise, as I was doing a quick post (as I was busy), and did not read the surrender part.


F Android Slayer lvl 5. HP 46/46, AC 21/16/16, Init+5, Perc.+9, Fort+5 Ref+9 Will+3

I'm going to be away during the day tomorrow and expect not to be back before 21:00, Amsterdam timezone.


HP: 46/59, AC: 20:13:20, CMD: 22 Saves: 7:4:5 Skills: Appraise: +9, Dip: +12, Per +10, Sense +10, Stealth +8,

Enjoy your time in Holland, and also enjoy the sweets and treats they have.


F Android Slayer lvl 5. HP 46/46, AC 21/16/16, Init+5, Perc.+9, Fort+5 Ref+9 Will+3

Oh i enjoyed the day.

It was a day spent in a roller coaster park in Holland.
I didn't take any of the candy or treats there, aside from some needed coffee. We brought the snacks and lunch ourselves, buying it there is way too expensive.


HP: 37/37; Init: +3; Feral Focus: Bull (+2 Str); Spells used: 1: 5, 2: 1; Arrows: 5/20+20; Teamwork: Coordinated Shot

Hi, just letting you know my computer died, so busy fixing and restoring the data. Hopefully be sorted out by tomorrow, then I can post once more.


Ok sure thing.


F Android Slayer lvl 5. HP 46/46, AC 21/16/16, Init+5, Perc.+9, Fort+5 Ref+9 Will+3

Right, next time we're at the town, i'm buying blunt arrows.


1 person marked this as a favorite.

One of my friends always says when in doubt crowbar


F Android Slayer lvl 5. HP 46/46, AC 21/16/16, Init+5, Perc.+9, Fort+5 Ref+9 Will+3

Good point.

I've read somewhere on the board that someone always carried a crowbar.
Both as a last resort of weapon, as well as against pesky doors.


Ever since a crowbar saved one of his characters from a couple skeletons he has made a point of always having one lol.


HP: 46/59, AC: 20:13:20, CMD: 22 Saves: 7:4:5 Skills: Appraise: +9, Dip: +12, Per +10, Sense +10, Stealth +8,

I'd carry one as well, but then I might get called, Gorden.


M Dhampir Bloodrager/3 hp: 23/35| AC 18 T 15 FF 13| Fort +5 Ref +5 Will +1; Init +4 Per +8

Sorry for not getting to this during the weekend, but I’m going to have minimal internet access during the next week. Going on vacation with most of my family. If I post it will most likely be at night during Mountain Time. Please DMPC Alvoise as needed.


if you have a moment have a look here monster review

and let me know what you think


F Android Slayer lvl 5. HP 46/46, AC 21/16/16, Init+5, Perc.+9, Fort+5 Ref+9 Will+3

That's a nova on legs.

How good is the DR and resistances of the crew?


pretty good overall they have a Wizard a blood rager, paladin, cleric, fighter (crossbow specialist)


F Android Slayer lvl 5. HP 46/46, AC 21/16/16, Init+5, Perc.+9, Fort+5 Ref+9 Will+3

How about an insanity pulse that goes off every couple of rounds.

I refer to the wooden golem on d20, it has an ability, Splinter Barrage i think, that lets it use an aoo attack every 1d4+1 rounds.

Or dominate person, get the bloodrager to rage against the wizard or fighter.

Or......even better, give it a magic jar ability with a recepticle.
When it falls over at a certain point near death, they think it is slain, only to have one of them being possessed.


lol nice thinking jayla but for this monster I just want something that makes things go boom a lot.

if you want to discuss the monster more go to the tread for it I will be checking it often today.


I'm looking to try a battle pitting a group of players against the boss I made. If your interested make a post here


I am moving this weekend will post when I can but I might be slow to respond for a while.


HP: 46/59, AC: 20:13:20, CMD: 22 Saves: 7:4:5 Skills: Appraise: +9, Dip: +12, Per +10, Sense +10, Stealth +8,

No Problem
