I'm getting married on Saturday, so I'll be out of town Thurs to Mon. I'm going to try to post what I can (I expect I will enjoy the reprieve), but there are a couple days where I'm guessing I won't have the chance.
Congratulations!
Yay congrats!
Congratulations and all the best on the day.
Congratulations ellequoi. May you have a long and fruitful relationship in your marriage.
Thanks :)
Nothing more to say in game at the moment (shall we skip forward to Arasmes picking up the token now?). I'm looking forward to mummying some masks :)
I'm all for pushing ahead, we seem to be properly introduced and teamed-up for the most part.
Aww, no responses or reactions to my little blurb? Still, I'm ok with pushing ahead.
It capped off our intros so well, I didn't want to ruin the moment ;)
Onward we will go. I won't have access to the AP until at least 7:20 pm EST, since I am still a wage slave.
So are we moving on or are you still meandering through the countryside coming up with a party name?
I'm good with moving forward.
I'm kinda ready, though Zariya's hedonism is not. Even though the game kinda hasn't actually started I assume she would be penalized if she didn't partake in any pleasure, reward or entertainment.

Well, there are many way to indulge in hedonism, especially for a repressed younger Keleshite princess.... And if anyone asks, and if you want, I will add in encounters based on your background, such as Zariya's father sending out goons to convince her to come back home to Kelesh so she can get married off to some foreign prince or princess.
Or Lorn running into ancient reminders of Nagisa in Osirion, and so on. Or Mole Aram tracking down Varisia for revenge...
I'm for moving on, and also I love those backstory hooks when they get pulled in.
Yeah, let's move it forward.
Married off to a foreign princess? But yes, I love the idea of including elements from our backstories. Though given how we are all from far away it sadly won't be as prominent as it could have been in other settings I'm guessing.
@Varisia: How far and fast do you want to take things?
I'm ready to move forward and peppered in backstory encounters would be sweet.
@Zariya: I figure Varisia's fairly eager, though, at least initially, it would play into her drawback for Zariya to be the pursuer.
Yup. Remember this is Golarion. Shapechanging magic and lack of social/religious stigma over sexual roles means that either sex can be married off for continuation of the family line or increasing a noble's/ruler's powerbase or property. One GM we had made a mistake with a villager in Ravengro, the starting city of Carrion Crown, and setup an arranged marriage between a player and his eldest child. The player was going to run away from the arranged marriage and become an adventurer, a typical female fantasy trope. However, the GM failed to realize that the villager's eldest child was his daughter, so much hilarity ensued. Wrath of the Righteous also explores this side of Golarion with a pair of NPCs, one of whom decided to transform himself into a woman so his lover didn't feel out of sorts during their relationship. And so on.
And not all of you are that far away. Osirion used to be a satrapy of Kelesh, and Osirion itself also has massive ties to Garundi. Mola Ram is a devil who may have evolved into a higher form, and teleport without error doesn't know distance. Other backgrounds may have multi-country reach. We'll see how it goes. Now on to adventure!
Oh, I know this is Golarion, however so far I've portrayed her father as rather conservative so I figured you would follow that theme. It's a NPC though, so you are free to do whatever you want with him of course.

I most likely will, but conservative people can sometimes become amazingly liberal when it suits their needs. Just something to consider.

There is an item called holy weapon balm that is really good for archers versus undead. For a melee type it only works for one hit, but it'll let you dip 10 arrows in it which then remains for a minute.
HOLY WEAPON BALM
Price 30 gp; Weight 1/2 lb.
This violet balm comes in a small ceramic pot. When applied to a weapon as a standard action, it forms a transparent coating. Weapons coated in this balm deal an additional 2d4 points of damage to undead or evil outsiders. A creature affected by the balm must succeed at a DC 10 Reflex save or take an additional 1d4 points of damage the following round. Any nonmagical weapon coated with the balm affects incorporeal undead or evil outsiders as if it were a magic weapon. Any magic weapon coated with the balm affects incorporeal undead or evil outsiders as if the weapon had the ghost touch special ability. The balm remains effective until you make a successful attack with the weapon or until 1 minute has passed, whichever is sooner. Each dose of balm can coat one weapon or 10 pieces of ammunition.
I don't have the funds, but a cold iron Lucerne Hammer could potentially help against some forms of DR (for example against skeletons) for Zariya, it'll cover bludgeoning, piercing and cold iron.
I also worry that we potentially don't have enough alchemical items, but that fear might be unfounded.
Re Holy Weapon Balm: Lorn currently doesn't have the funds either. But I have noted it for future purchases. She presently has a set of blunt arrows for bludgeoning damage.
Arasmes won't be able to post until tomorrow as his eldest is having a slumber party at their house tonight and he'll have his hands full.
Hands full of pizza? That's still how slumber parties work, right? Pizza?
If the little ones don't eat all the pizza first! ;)
I'll just share the info. If you guys really want me to RP it out I can do so after I catch some shut eye. I just DM'd an all-nighter for the kids I work with and am having issues with thinking right now.
I'm good with just sharing the info this time - no need to rp it out. Hope you managed to get some rest.
Arasmes be dead...6 boys in the house and only three of them mine...still recuperating a day later...send help as I believe one of them left with my soul...if I believed in such things at least lol
stormcrow27: Re the image: Didn't realise it was a tv reference. Thanks. ;)
@arasmes: There, there. You'll find your soul. ;)
No worries. Don't worry, Arasmes. It's only how many years until college?
For the fun of it Varisia in an icebox...

I'm back! :) wedding went well.
@stormcrow27 Is that my dad?
Congrats again to you and your spouse Zohreh.
Or your grandson, given that Earth in Golarion at this time is in the roaring 20s (1921 or so).
Welcome back Zohreh. Congrats again. How does it feel to be a married person?
Thanks! Feels good :) more settled!
You just blew my mind....
@Zohreh Good. It's a grand feeling to hold onto.
@Varisia That's what I do.
with water dispenser and a britta filter, no less!
Been busy the past couple days and will be so tomorrow as well... Sorry for not posting as much. It'll pick back up soon, I promise...
I love that commercial and I don't even drink beer.
Heh. I'm from Michigan and we have two of the best beer cities in the nation, Grand Rapids and Kalamazoo. And plenty of Budweiser in this state, along with Milwaukee's Beast and Boonesfarm...
You mid-country folks don't know the meaning of beer.
Sure we do. We even drink scab beer.

Michigan is rebuilding itself with cottage industry and has a strong craft beer presence. Although I prefer 3Floyd's, especially their barrel aged wee ales. Wisconsin's obsession, New Glarus, has strong fruit ales that may be more to your liking storm; although their flagship beer is Spotted Cow.
