Have fun at school
Sorry about not posting anything yesterday guys. I finally had enough of being sick, and decided to go get antibiotics. I have to say; I was stupid for not doing it sooner. I'm 100% better today (although I did sleep for like 16 hours yesterday).
Glad to hear you are feeling better.
me too! =D now, on to the war!
:)
:D
man it's weird having players who don't automatically assume that everything they have to do has to be a secret.
Hey, All Powerful Skyreaver, I was wondering something. I was browsing through my pdfs, and came across the Trapsmith archetype for Rogue. I was wondering if you'd be cool with me adjusting to that. It wouldn't affect my Rogue levels until level four anyway. It just replaces Uncanny dodge with cool trap bonuses. I figure with being a professional trapper, it would make sense.
B-BAAAAUUUMMM!!!! I don't even know everything this ring does and it's already one of the favorite unique magical items I've seen since I started role playing 12 years ago! Hell yeah! And Urgosh, those boots are SWEET! Enjoy, buddy!
The whole vibe of other players being the enemy always pissed me off. I feel like it just gets in the way of the fun. On very rare occasions interesting stories can come of it but it is really more hassle than it is worth IMO :)
Also these items make me think we are in for some deep $#*! . . . They are awesome but why give them out if we didn't need them! I am excited to see what is next!
I thought other players being the enemy was the whole point of this campaign... the psiionic?
Oh sure those losers are. :)
Just so I understand these items:
The knuckle allows 3 total spirits at this time. I main, and 2 wandering.
The robe will allow both spells on it at once, or just one or the other?
Grith,
My domain power for the moment isn't great and since i have a nice wisdom i have plenty of use per day for it at the moment.
The judgment ability will probably come in handy.
quick question DM: Does the the boots function also for the Determination ability?
answering in order:
@greith: ya, you can take that archetype, although I don't think it's worth it tbh. Uncanny dodge is incredibly useful all the time, and the ability to set traps is situational. just my $.02 though.
@drax: wasn't talking about PVP per se; I just tend to game with people who like to play their cards close to the vest, so to speak.
@chak-chak: yes, it will give you 3 total: your primary, your normal wandering, and bones. and yes, the robe will take both spells at the same time; just to get it out of the way, the robe counts as wearing armor, not taking your body slot (although you might look weird wearing two robes).
@urgosh: Ya, I'm fine with that.
for the record:
I like creating my own items, rather than just rely on what is readily available. I've also been GMing long enough to be able to "guesstimate" how much an item is worth, but I have been wrong on more than one occasion. What I would like you guys to do when you get some free time is to create a list of items that your characters would like to get, and I'll try to incorporate at least some of them into encounter treasure (of course, that means that you would be at least partially gearing some of your foes, but fair is fair). I occasionally might include something different, but similar (sandals of the lucky peasant!)
Also, please feel free to give me feedback if you see something that you think is wrong/makes me look foolish/just plain sucks. Even if I don't make the changes you want, I will always try to explain why I do what I do so you can at least understand that I'm not just doing things "cause I say so."
Oh, and I love the forums, but sometimes they eat my posts, so I'll repost the following message (that should make you quite happy): You guys should level to 5th. My plan is to have you guys level after every mission (it'll balance out, as some missions will be longer than others), and you completed your first one.
As far as the Aeon campaign goes, it looks like that died out, so I have carte blanc to change things (granted, most of them were what I created to begin with) so that they fit in with the stories I plan on telling here.
Woot! Time to level! Good thing I had been spending all that time at the church :)
Nice touch, but as Drax said above - if you're giving us all of these, man we're gonna be seeing some serious troubles ahead. Good stuff :-)
I will think of the items I would like for Kurat, and I'll be posting them these days.
Thanks, Vrog.
That's really cool! I know I'll be hitting a certain sorc up for some mage armor :P
Do we roll for XP for level-up, or...?
Mage armor? I was really looking forward to getting one of those interesting useless first level spells like bed of iron
too bad i was looking for some team PvP :)
nah, don't worry about xp. Like I said afore, you guys will just level after every mission (easier on me that way).
I think he meant HP. Is that what you meant to ask, Kurat? You wondering if we roll for HP every level?
Yep, I meant Hit Points
Just do 1/2 plus one, so d6 would be 4, d8 5, d10 6, d12 7
Was I supposed to start at 5th, or will I be a level behind?
I'm ok with either.
just go ahead and level. I like to keep all the players at the same level, cause otherwise it's a headache.
Should I have done that for every level? I had a few lucky roles but was only a few HP above the number if I switch to Full+(1/2+1)+(1/2+1) instead.
ya, I had thought I posted it before, but of course I didn't. HP should be max first two levels, then half +1 every level thereafter.
Will do.
Thusly does metaplot rear it's ugly head!
Either the captain has a twisted sense of humor or someone knows we are coming . . .
I feel like I'm gonna be resorting to cantrips very soon
I used all my channels and spells healing the brawl. I am totally dry if I failed my save other than the 3 spells from my relic.
Greith will add a skill rank to disguise! Also, I'm heading to work now so I'll post after work this evening.
Ya, the captain has no idea about your nightmares, and if asked, will say it's probably just nerves (never mind the fact that some of you are bleeding in the morning.
Did we get a chance to heal over the weeks? Also did Drax make his save?
Is the travel time our level up time meaning I can put a skill point in disguise from lvling and get the class skill benefit?
heal yes, get rid of fatigue, no.
ya, that seems like a good time for a training montage. feel free to do so.
Alright a point in linguistics for common and a shot at making forgeries if the need arises and one in disguise. Drax studies hard on the trip. He will make disguise a class skill based on the captains extra training.
Based on the comment above about fatigue I take it Drax failed the save and so has the fatigued condition but a full set of spells and channels available heading into the city.
only the people I gave damage to failed the save.
DM are there dwarves also on the side of Aeon or all the darwen race part of the convocation?
So do we have full set of spells?
Dwarves are only part of the convocation. There are a small contingent of Duergar that are part of Aeon, but the Duergar are considered "non people" for some offense that no living dwarf can remember and so no dwarf in their right mind would want to be seen as one (kinda like casteless in hindi society).
yes, you can have your spells, but those of you who failed your save and took damage have fatigue that you can't seem to shake, even were you to rest a day (mainly cause you're still having nightmares, but you don't remember them upon waking).
The rest of you are currently fatigued due to having forced marched for the last two weeks or so.
OK, updated Kurat to lvl 5, took the option to have Disguise as class skill, and then on 5th level used my only skill point (INT 7 duuuh!) to put it into Disguise skill If allowed by the GM).
that's both acceptable and common for the group, so carry on.
I will update Chak Chak this evening.
He speaks common, sylvan and tengu. I figured his disguise check with only 1 rank in it, but that could change when I update him.
kyrzbyn, did you take a rank in linguistics? cause you only have a 10, which would mean that you speak sylvan and tengu.
I will...when he's revamped and level 5.
