The Avalon Chronicles

Game Master lynora

Not sure if I mentioned this here, but I'm working my first ever GenCon, so my posts will be slow.

Will try and get a response for Aridente later.

Sweet! Hope that you get a chance to enjoy the con a little bit too. :)

Champion teleport. No chance of error. :P

And the ability to blink back out quickly if you get somewhere and are like no way. ;)

*chuckles*

So paranoid! I wasn't worrying about the error -- as much as, if you teleport to where something is, and say that something is 'falling', you'll appear in the air, right? Space?

Just making sure, not laying a trap. (At least not with this PC, yet...)

It's only paranoia if they're not out to get you! :P

And yes, you are correct about where she would appear.

Am i being waited on, or....

Am i being waited on, or....

I don't know. But DB3 hasn't been on in a few days so I think we are waiting on him.

Ok, I thought so. Just wanted to make sure it wasn't me.

I think the only setting I hate more is Forgotten Realms. Bloody Elminster ruining everything for everybody... :P

...I love the Realms. >.>

DB3, you're the one who got me into this mess in the first place, and all I have to say to that is thank you! There have been times when my enthusiasm has flagged, and every time you've reminded me why I got into this in the first place. Basically you inspire me. You're like my muse or something. ;)

I clearly need more compliments like this, because I'm definitely caught off guard here.

Could I get the info that melody is trying to give my character

Maybe a knowledge or int or whatever check?

sure thing.

lets say a DC 30 int check or DC 50 knowledge (engineering) check.

Thanks Lyn. I never really thought of myself as being very positive, but you're actually the second person to tell me that lately, so I guess I can't argue with it. ^_^

I've been working on being more emotionally deep with my guys, but I'm just a really Disney person and I sometimes have trouble putting drama in becuase I just want everyone to be happy, and I often forget that doing awful things to your characters is what constitutes happy for some of y'all. :P

I will try to remember to remind you how awesome you are more often then. ^.^

"I love old things. They make me feel sad.
What's so good about sad?
It's happy for deep people." :)

I like this.

But also tragedy needs a note of hope to really get my feels going. The darkness makes the light that much brighter. :)

you ok with who gets your old dudes?

Yup, I am sure you guys will give them fresh light and still do em honour.

Any questions just pm me. Not guarantees on how long that will take though. :P

Db3, it's your go for Pyry a couple pages back.

Also waiting on Ryo and Michael. (If you're stuck on what to say for Michael just let me know. Kitty has plenty more rant to go. Just didn't want to totally talk over you.)

Agreed. This is why I have always loved fairy tales. Sometimes I've had some trouble with people over the years because of genre confusion. Because someone else thought that it was supposed to be horror. See, I grew up with the old kind of fairy tales, not the disneyfied versions. And those are chock full of terrible things. The main difference between a fairy tale and a horror story is the ending. There is always a happily ever after. But getting there, well, anything can happen. ;)

Grimm Fairy tales or bust. Best stories ever.

I just came across chicken infested when a DM was talking about it and said he'd allow it in his game
And I thought
That'd be hilarious to introduce to avalon

Can I just say I love playing Lucas around his family
Like how right now he's using his patented big brother ® I am older and therefor I am right™ voice.

Hmm
Trying to think of what I could have Dave be doing, I haven't posted with him in a while
Hmm

Maybe he could be working on his ship?
Yeah that works
Not very dynamic or interesting to read but something that Dave sees as important, so that makes sense

Wow that was a bigger wall of text than intended.

Let's see how that holds up against patented baby of the family blubbering. ;P

You’ve got chickens.
Effect: Whenever you draw a weapon or pull an item out of a container, you have a 50% chance of drawing a live chicken instead. No, we don't know where the chickens come from; it's your character.

Lol! Best magical plague evar! XD

I was thinking that this might be something Dave could curse someone with

Lol. Yeah, I could see that happening. :)

So, does anyone with spacefaring ties want to meet viskra and maybe have a heart attack?

Heh.

hmm to big brother protectively threaten lang or to keep up the nice guy veneer.... hmm

Well, he's not chaotic in his manner -- per your stats.

So, either consistently roll a d2 and go with 'whim', or keep up the Big Brother routine.

It'd help cement your place with family too, after all.

I remembered that if you're sending your thoughts at someone, you don't have to use words.

Completely depends on the level of 'telepathy' at work, or game system. YMMV.

Given that Lucas can tell when someone is using telepathy near him and can intercept if he wants and can sense the physical location of people's mind nearby I figure this is fibe

Usually conveying emotion is empathy, not telepathy, but, meh. Splitting hairs.

Lyn, I sent you all the PMs.

Nice. Go go psionics.

Technically that's a racial feature and two feats but yeah, it's rather potent

HOLY CRAP MY FIRST GENCON WAS *AWESOMELY AMAZING!!!*

We kicked so much ass at our booth and a bsolutely crushed our goals for each day!!!

Bout to fly home :)

Woo~
:)

Glad you did well, MG.

Lyn, I sent you all the PMs.

Yep. I've had a lot of PMs of late. May of them long. Working my way through slowly. :)

I hope everything is ok with DB3. I guess life is busy.

*throws confetti*

Page 1500, here we are.

I may have gotten too used to the very rapid post speed again and even this small pause/slowdown is driving me crazy

Now I'm trying to think about what my lesser used characters like zix, chao and the coutal who's forgotten his own name are doing.

Sorry!

I have a cold. Words are hard. Thinking is slow. Posting will have to wait. :)

S'ok Lyn, hope you feel better!

I created this character for what had the potential to be a really awesome world building game, that sadly fell apart soon after it began.

I would like to revisit her concept for Avalon, likely as some sort of fae.

Not sure what her other class would be, but leaning towards Shaman, Druid or Oracle at the moment.

Thoughts?

Well, give us something to go on, concept/backstory wise

Her concept/backstory will change drastically depending on whether or not she can be a fae, and if I make her a PC or NPC.

My initial post was to get the discussion started with Lyn but not via PM as I know she has lots of those, and this doesn't need to be kept a secret atm.

Entirely separate topic:

I know I asked this before, but I can't remember the answer, but was Agartha a planet before the Amethysts showed up, or did they create it whole cloth through the power of their psionics?

Aka, was there a planet before, or did they make a brand new planet?

Given my limited understanding and memory, this 'planet' was created by them-- not repurposed or remodeled.

It's all in the campaign tab fellas.
