Game Master Aeshuura

This is the discussion thread. We are looking to start on Monday, 5/21.

I hope I didn't cause any problems by starting out this way.

If everyone else is okay with it, it should be fine... We can work it out...

@Eeerie, you going factionless?

Can I? If not I'll go Zhentirim.

You absolutely can, just remember not to take the renown awards.

Sure

Then we are at an accord... ;)

Stigand has his dwarf all ready!

Ooo, yer a Battlehammer! Beryl Ironjoy would have fun runnin alongside you!

Updated Roster:
Sliver - wood elf ranger 1 (Dax) - Emerald Enclave
Greycastle
Aukan - goliath barbarian 1 (Niles) - Emerald Enclave
Eeerie - human warlock 1 - factionless
Mayberry Kalhandha - half-elf wild magic sorcerer 1 (Nefarious) - faction?
Oghren Battlehammer - dwarf fighter 1 (stigand) - Order of the Gauntlet
Dalron - human life cleric 3 (Buckshot) - Faction: Order of the Gauntlet

Sorrry, I was still worrrking out some details on the sheet. I prrractice in the Way of the Open Paw

Speaking of volcanos. Aesh, aren’t you in Hawaii?

Yeah, opposite end of the island chain though. I am on the island that had the apocalyptic flooding a few weeks ago. ;)

A lot of posts. I'll do better at keeping up. I also noted that Sliver has the wrong armor. When I get home I'll make the corrections to his profile. He should be wearing studded leather armor.

I was wrong about being wrong. Sliver should be in scale mail at this time. Not that it matters now, but he should have had Disadvantage on his stealth check.

right, sometimes early levels that heavy medium armor is better than leather or studded.

No worries! Hopefully we will be able to get you into better armor soon!

Sliver, don't fret yourself too much about the timing on your posts, we can wait. Don't feel like you have to shift just for us, this is a play by post it is supposed to be slow. And, I'd prefer this didn't end up feeling like more of a chore than a fun activity.

Oops! Each square is supposed to be 10 ft! I guess you are supposed to be smaller on the map!

I'm out of town and don't have access like I thought I would. Please bot Sliver until Monday.

Will do, buddy! Hopefully, out of town is a fun trip, not business! ;)

I've returned home and getting caught up.

Welcome back, Sliver!

Hai!

I am back as well. I thought that I could keep up while at Paizocon...I was tragically wrong, my apologies.

No worries! I figure weekends are gonna slow down.

Just announced! The next D&D Adventure Book is Waterdeep: Dragon Heist! Cityscape with heavy RP and DT activities! I am excited for this one!!!

Yeah, they needed to expand the DT mechanic. Good stuff.

I definitely deleted a multi-sentence description of Eerie removing the head of the goblin corpse. I decided that may be a bit too far. That being said, I can tone it down more if anybody would prefer. Please feel free to speak up, I will not be offended.

Thanks. I think that the creep-factor may keep some of the others from ever interacting with Eeerie at all. (Which I think is no fun.)

I will do my best to tone it down more.

Yes, Dalron is unsure what to make of Eeerie. A necromancer maybe. That is why he is stand offish.

I'll be leaving for Mexico on Sunday 6/17 and returning Sunday 6/24. I *might* have internet there and be able to post. But I will probably go pretty dark for a week.

No problem. I will bot you if necessary... hopefully you don't miss too much.

I did a thing... For anyone interested in some Japanese-flavored player options!

DMs Guild

Just FYI, I’m ata Con through the weekend so my posting will be sparse.

No worries, there is still the castle to explore. You'll probably be back before we are done with that... ^_^

Happy Fathers Day everyone

:( I thought it was punny..

oh snap! leveling up first D&D character. now to rummage through the book on what to do

It's fairly simple. As a fighter, you increase your hp equal to (d10 = 6) plus your Con mod. You gain Action Surge. And you are done! ;)

and done!

I love how easy and fast it is to level up in this system! ^_^ When you couple that with a flexible DM, it keeps things from getting boring!

I nominate Aukan for the inspiration point. He needs to get his kill count up or Oghren will beat him.

Nice! My nomination is for Eerie. That dude is creepy.

I thought Eerie was awesome, but I don't want to encourage that level of creep. My vote is for Eerie.

At first I was thinking Eerie as well, but I just didn't want the nightmares to get worse ;o)

Thankfully, Eeerie has mentioned that he is willing to tone down the creep-factor. I would be interested in seeing him interact with the party in a way that allows us to see something endearing about him, that actually makes the party want him around, despite being 'broken'...

Okay, sounds like Eeerie and Aukan get inspiration.
