The Avalon Chronicles

Game Master lynora

It was amusing Magic, no need to be sorry.

Jess,
One post, regardless of its content will not slow you finishing your character.

It was absolutely rude and completely uncalled for. And this somebody who has zero problem being rude when it is called for.

I can still help *shrug*

Don't bother

I like helping people
But if you want to do it yourself that's also fine

If I get yelled at for saying something or get a lecture by asking for advice what's the point?

But, in serious to everyone else, I totally call the Fixing Hammer as one of Tyb's items...

I didn't mean to upset you magic, I guess I was too focused on getting this done

It's ok.

I guess we just don't really get the rush or seriousness. The game isn't moving too fast right now. Unless you want him in by next period, you have time to make him how you like.

So I'm assuming I don't need to step in and this little piece of drama is already over?

So...

I can follow what Rena is attempting, but -- other than monologues, not quite sure if Kevin or David are actually doing something specific.

Magic, can you elaborate on your last post? I'm going to assume David's soaking up his newfound crown/power/aura after agreeing to the 'deal'.

Welcome to the party, btw.

Waiting on Ardiente to react to his girlfriend fainting in front of him and/or for Melody to react to being handed data and Arthur's request for a translation (and also possibly to Raelle passing out).
Also waiting on Vare. Attempt number one to teleport was a failure, but a second attempt would work.
Now that he has the power is Dave also joining the fight against the demon mech? Or is he checking to make sure the naked guy isn't still possessed first?
Outside of those two scenes I'm gonna check to see who needs replied to.
Where did we leave the discussion with Ace and friends? Just want to make sure I'm not the one holding that up.

"Psst. Hey... Lyn... How do I tell the difference?..."

Firebirds don't physically age after their twentieth birthday. While sometimes nobles and high clerics will use illusions to appear old (to command respect), generally there isn't any easy way to tell. Usually dress and hairstyle provide good clues. Very old firebirds (like five or six hundred years old) will get a sort of translucent look to their skin, and are more sensitive to cold. But trying to tell the difference between a twenty year old and a fifty year old is a bit of a crapshoot. So probably something like how silly they act.

Gonna work on getting posts done here soon. Got pulled into something else after I got the Rena post out and it's taking longer than expected.

Also, I think I typed out but forgot to post what Rena was actually wearing since I remember that being asked. I'll include that in my next post.

Lyn, I had the last post, though I suppose either Jai or Ty can reply to Ace.

Thanks. :)
For whatever reason I was having the hardest time locating the tail end of that conversation.

I knew I had replied to Ty's last post, so I just searched for that and then saw nobody responded to me.

... but then there's no accounting for the effects that staring into a rift in the universe might have.

... And when you gaze long into an abyss the abyss also gazes into you.

'Nuff quoted, m'kay?

Lol. Yeah, like that. Plus now I have a legit story excuse to make her more than just a living version of a sonic screwdriver :P

Kevin was looking at the screen either running more tests or interpreting the ones already done.

I suppose he's putting in a more in-depth scan, tracing for extraplanar debris, energy signatures other than Sam's or their own, or lingering magical effects of any sort.

Righto-- shall update regarding the following 'effects':

• Detect Magic
  
• Detect Energy Signature
  
• Detect Foreign Particles

Please note that for practically all intents and purposes, Tryko'Sam's 'pattern' registered with the facility is the same as when first scanned by Aanandareavekki recently (past few days?, really...) There's some oddity brain waves though. But it's Trkyo'Sam as far as the sensors are concerned.

Does anyone know if I can use modern firearms?

For an Agartha native or an Imperial citizen? I know the Arcan Spellslingers(not the archetype from paizo) are under Dalesman's jurisdiction.

Ummm, an Argatha native

Depends on where from.

From an Elven tree community, probably not. From Kuros, near the factory, probably.

Firearms are available but not common. Much like skimmers and hover bikes were before Jiminy started a factory to build new ones. They exist, but it can be hard to get parts for them, etc, etc. easier near Kuros since it's an industrial center.
It's nothing against firearms. They are just one more example of nearly lost tech as Agartha had been sliding into more and more primitive conditions over time. But boy is that changing now! Jiminy has ideas! So many ideas..... :)

Does proficiency with a Blunderbuss give me proficiency with shotguns?

Remember also that "modern firearms" would be considered quite primitive by the Dragon Empire, though there are some who like "slugthrowers" as they are called over laser/blaster tech for various reasons.

So I could use any weapon in the future or star wars books? Except for lightsabers of course

Does proficiency with a Blunderbuss give me proficiency with shotguns?

I don't think so? I mean the loading action, firing mechanism, and recoil would all be different wouldn't they?

Also... I found one of my old AMVs back from my halcyon days of when I watched way too much anime to be healthy! Such nostalgia!

Apparently this AMV is 8 years old.

I found a couple others but they're considerably more horrible than that one. XD

Imperial citizens would have access to any of those, yes. Parts are even harder to come by for an Agartha native.

Hmmm, I see, well my pirate is almost done, just need my guns and enchantments

In Pathfinder, all firearms fall under the "Exotic Weapon Proficiency (firearms)" feat.

Of course, Paizo also included a guide for what tech level guns are at in the setting, though I think Agartha would still fall under the "Emerging Guns" section.

So would I be able to use a plasma weapon or just a slugthrower?

I guess the consensus is "if your character is from Agartha, the higher tech level your weapon the better story you'll need to justify it", or something similar.

Roger that

Don't forget that people appear to 'visit' the planet often-- so it's possible that random, magical/high tech/other dimensional, items could easily be 'picked up' by someone with deft fingers.

Arrr... yer a pirate! Claim what you want as yours, arr... or something.

Me goal be ta make Scrooge McDuck look like a begger yarharhar!

Or one, I suppose, could have been given the tech by the Empire.

Sounds like you'll need some help with that.

Could also "borrow" it with no intention of giving it back

well I think I figured out my motivation failing source (at least for this game)

I am suffering from Dr Who withdraws... I need the new season to start.

Tried Game of Thrones, but just ends up with this in mind

also FCD I think Sun responded to Midori.....

lol. Yep. that video is a good summary of why I gave up on Game of Thrones. :)

And you could always watch old seasons on Netflix.....
Personally I'm still catching up. When does the new season start? I'm still only partway through season 6. Just watched "When a Good Man Goes to War" and "Let's Kill Hitler". I loved the Santaran (sp?) nurse....I so want to have him in the infirmary now. :P
I'm really hoping that they put Season 8 up soon. Otherwise it is either going to be a long wait or expensive buying it episode by episode. But either way I'm planning to DVR Season 9 when it starts (hence my question about when it does start) so it's available when we actually get caught up.
It's hard to binge watch a show when the person you're watching with is out of town half the week. But we are making progress...slow progress, but better than nothing. :)

I think the new season is in August

Thanks. I will keep an eye out.

gift ideas for Melody

I have played a little of that. I am really bad at it.

My brother and I have kinda a sacred agreement when it comes to 4X games. We play them alot together: Civ (1-5, Alpha CentauI, and Beyond Earth), Heroes of Might and Magic, the Total War series (Rome, Empire and Shogun), and now the Endless games.

See, we need to have a human opponent to make the game more interesting, so whenever we play we are always against each other, but we're always on voice chat when we play to, and we learn the game together. We figure out mechanics, little tricks to the game, whatever. We always share too, despite the fact that not sharing these insights would give us the edge.

And we do keep score, but it's nice to remind each other that even when we are ostensibly opponents, we still always have each other's back.

I'm not sure which is worse....waiting for the other shoe to drop, or waiting to drop the other shoe....
Don't mind me. Just feeling impatient over here. :D

And now to do that which I dread....more work trying to recover damaged files off of a virus infected computer. It's all my family photos from when my son was four through when he was nine. Might have possible backups left on other virus infected computer. All other backups are gone due to corrupted files.
>.<
So this is why we print out the actual pictures instead of just making digital albums.....
