Done, Blossym.

Thank you.

I need to send Febida on a mission that'll put her at 2nd lvl quickly. Anyone running Godsmouth Heresy?

Depending on how work goes today, I'll be reading up on Godsmouth and Emerald Spire level 1 today, and begin prepping them.

I currently don't have the scenarios for those just yet, but should be picking them up later this month, as I am interested in them as well!

If you run it, count me in!

With sufficient interest, I can run a second table as well. It's why I only put one listing rather than two, hahaha.

Made a character for the second table.

I'll be resting my PbP GMing until after OGC (which is the weekend after this one.) Once that's done I'd like to start running:

To Scale the Dragon Standard

and

The Silent Tide CORE.

I'll start as soon as they're filled and it's after June 21.

Also, I'm itching to play through Emerald Spire and Dragon's Demand and I think PbP may be my only option.... hmmmm...

Dragon's Demand is great, but a really long module. I'm currently running it PbP, maybe I'm going start a CORE run after summer :)

I am presently at the tail end of Dragon's Demand in a PbP. After that wraps, I will gladly run it for you guys in campaign mode. :-)

Oh great thunderspirit, hear my cry! Grant us a chance to play an awesome adventure and level up our characters!!

Thank you for the offer!

I just want to play the damn thing. Lol

DM S, I don't suppose you could sign me up for Scale the Dragon, could you? I'm on my iPad and can't sign myself up. I have a few different choices around that level.

Thanks.

I put you on there. Looks like the last slot, too. It's a 5th - 9th, so what character are you wanting to put down?

I have several options. Ruprecht, Tess, Shel, Pai, and Hagrym are all in the level range, though Hagrym is currently in a game.

Thanks for signing me up as well.

So, I bought the 5pp tavern vanity with my swashbuckler/ninja (nightingale from skyrim recreation build), because of the flavor of it. However, after seeing how easy it is to not always get the additional prestige per scenario, was that a bad idea? I mean, how often will I ever really want that pp in the bank for a raise dead, or a status ailment cure?

Depending on the scenarios, it should be alright once you save up to 17 points before spending them. My highest level character has 30 at the moment, and may spend 20 on a special boon once he has some leeway with stuff...... Not that he'll become a Blakros or anything.......

Also, the character's cha sucks, which is what his day job relies on, so with 3 ranks invested, and with the farm, he has a 5 modifier to those rolls. Oh yeah, the first farm of Blakros.

I dropped 20 PP on a boon.
Was totally worth it.

Style > Substance.

Thing is, I was level 2, and buying it took me down to 1pp in the bank. I wanted to be a cool tavern like the other cool kids, and now I think I may be regretting it. In the words of Scooby Doo, "Rut Roe Raggy!".

That being said, perhaps if I just play it safe, I won't be in any deep doo doo...

I bought the Ship and the Coastal Island Boon, figuring that when I run Eyes of the 10, that will be the location of my new Lodge. A small planar island in the middle of the Lake of Mists. Need 1 more XP. . .

I have several options. Ruprecht, Tess, Shel, Pai, and Hagrym are all in the level range, though Hagrym is currently in a game.

Thanks for signing me up as well.

I'd suggest either Tess or Pai, as it looks like we are short on the arcane side, but it's PFS, so just pick one. :)

Also, quick question....... Is it slightly overpowered when a grapple check, before the roll, is at 24 without rage? Because hugs for everybody!

(Read up on the Brutal Pugilist archetype for Barbarian, and let the fun flow.)

Not a problem, just dont try it with things that have a lot of natural attacks. Was funny when a creature grappled my Lion animal companion.

.

Well, I know of a certain lantern that is of so much more a personal, if not frozen, nature you might be interested in, Miss Kryssa.

Unfortunately, you've already shown Kryssa that lantern. If it weren't for my cold energy resistance my fingers would have been frozen at midnight.

Ah, but mister huggy doesn't get any negative modifiers, so it may be a bit harder to hit him while in a grapple. I would love to try hugging something with quite a few natural attacks to be honest, just to see what happens!

:P

But, but, that's my job. That and ruining various new garments.

Ah, but mister huggy doesn't get any negative modifiers, so it may be a bit harder to hit him while in a grapple.

The problem is that they start using Rake as well as their normal attacks, so from 3 they end up with 5.

Gives Mr. Huggy a big hug. "It's ok. Everything will be just fine."

I'll see if I can update his stat block later tonight, and then share it. I think the only thing I need on him now is something that takes away freedom of movement, dimension door, and teleport.

Some quick questions about inventory tracking sheets.

(Funny story there, I was actually looking at the boons one can have for owning the Pathfinder Tales novels when I discovered them, and I have several of the novels...)

So, I just recently discovered that we are supposed to be using the inventory tracking sheets. Now, I haven't seen any characters mention them in PbP, nor GM's asking to see them, just people recording purchases in thread and on their alias. Granted, I haven't exactly checked every character I've played with, so probably many of them have them linked to their alias or something.'

My question is, does PbP enforce them? Are they absolutely required at cons? Also, in the case of the Pathfinder Tales novels, how does one prove they own them over PbP? Is it an honor system?

Geez, just when I think I have it all figured out, something like this pops up and reminds me I am still wet behind the ears...

I don't think anyone (even outside of PbP) uses them.

:P

But, but, that's my job. That and ruining various new garments.

I need to somehow get mending at-will if only for the sake of my chaps.

Yep...I'll wait and see which character is needed the most before deciding, once the DM links the gameplay thread. And please, when the time comes, let me know which you prefer. I'll try to run the one the majority prefers to help fill any holes that we might have.

It's kind of bad form to do that. Other players might do the same thing, and it just sort of bogs things down. It's better to pick someone and then change it later if needed.

I've done that for years now and never heard a poor word about it.

Long story short...

* Run some sort of ITC. Personally I maintain all mine as a googledoc sheet for all my characters. I periodically reprint as required when attending table top sessions along with my most current character sheets etc.

* As a GM, I don't usually ask to see them, in either F2F or PbP, unless you pull something that strikes me as 'odd', in which case I will take a keen interest. This has been my experience also as a player more broadly in the numerous PbP's I have been involved with under a multitude of GM's.

* PbP enforces them the same way as F2F, it is still PFS play, and so all things remain equal

* Yes, the honour system applies, in PbP just like F2F.

Lastly, and most importantly...

You will quickly work out which people are full of 'it', you will then either punt them off or they will work out you are on to their shenanigans and leave quickly.

Spend your time focusing on trust and building a fun PbP environment and just roll on from there. Some players are going to cheat, it happens in both environments, don't get caught up in having to police all that stuff because frankly it just turns into a chore and detracts from your time and effort, and often from your players entertainment.

Getting back to the novels, the problem is that you need a GM to sign your chronicle in order to USE said Chronicle, and that is a touch annoying - I suggest find a buddy GM and send them a photo of your book collection. Also send a copy of all the relevant PDF's and they can sign scan return for you. It is a unique pain in the behind but not too bad if they don't have to go fishing for all the PDF's to sign off on.

I don't think anyone (even outside of PbP) uses them.

I use them. You don't need 'em much at level 1, but as you get more gear and have more purchases and sales to record they become more useful. For PbP I use an excel spreadsheet, but I always update a physical copy for characters I bring to live games.

Thanks Shifty. I just like to make sure all of my stuff is done right, that way when someone does look at everything, I'm all set. I'll probably work on filling out the ITC's over this weekend. With 9 active characters, it may end up being an exercise in time consuming busy work more than being difficult. Plus, it'll help me condense everything for myself as well, because even at level 2, I'm starting to notice that it's a bit... hodge podge trying to keep track of everything on an alias character sheet. The tracking sheets look like they will be a bit better for laying it all out clearly. For instance, with that tavern vanity, it was just laying on my alias sheet all by itself underneath an empty background spoiler. (Also, when you purchase those, do they have to be done on a chronicle sheet, or can they be purchased in between scenarios as long as they are documented somewhere that the pp was spent?). I am going to section off my ITC's to have areas specific to whether or not something was purchased with pp or gp.

As for the books, I will definitely do that. While none of those boons are particularly amazing, they are still fun little things to have around, I suppose.

Here's a screenshot of how I have mine set up for this sort of thing. Being excel (Well - Goole sheets!) it allows me to rip out and configure key info as well as search for things across a stable of characters. I can also download to PDF or allow people to view if needed :)

btw you can only do the 2pp 750gp- purchase 1/scenario

Bwahahahaha! Who wants hugs from me?!

Should I take Rapid Grappler or Chokehold for my 11th level feat? Decisions......

It's ok, I had transcribed those out from the chronicle notes as the character went through an L1 rebuild :p It got a little untidy there, but as you can see it is also all in alphabetical order... I'm not normally that retentive, but once ordered it could then be copy/pasta to an equipment list.

Bad example, but the concept is there :p

Any chance to create a campaign page for Sior's Crypt of the Everflame in advance? Wouldn't mind idle chitter chatter between characters, IC of course.

If anyone drops before the time of starting, I will draw from the pool of alternates, since there are many.

If there is going to be a spot, I can bring a lvl 1 inq. lvl 3 hunter, lvl 2 gunslinger/fighter or lvl 8 Fighter (and 2 lvl 1 Aasimars, but I might redo those 2 so they are on the back burner for now)

[Shy but coy]: Hello. I'm new here. I'd like to get out on an adventure that takes me ... somewhere else. I've been known to play with fire (Sorc 1)... and I think I have it under control now. Can anyone help me out?

Haven't done PFS, but excited to start. Happy to join any adventure. This is the place to post, right? Would prefer to use a sorcerer (this build), but can build a rogue or a fighter (dex build) on quick notice. Haven't done PbP since the BBS days, 20 years ago. Please forgive a noob!

A short and (relatively speaking) young dwarf with hair the color of sandstone walks up to the newest member of the Society.

"Welcome to the Lodge, my friend! Please, take a seat! I just got back from my own adventure, so I've got some free time."

Febida carries over a couple of large mugs of ale, sitting at a table with her new friend.

Welcome to the forums, TomG! I highly recommend taking a look at this thread for information on how to be all you can be in the PbP community.

A young blond human walks into the lodge. He pulls out a scroll and sighs. "Another day of community service, yay. Last time I mess with that mayor's daughter."

"Hear ye, hear ye. The Pathfinder Society is looking for 6 of you to help escort an elven dignitary as he travels across the Inner Sea on a smuggler's ship. Who knows what kind of trouble he will get into?"

With that, the human nails a sign up sheet on the wall and checks off a mark on his todo list. "One down, one hundred more to go."

As promised a few weeks ago, I'm going to be a GM now. First time GMing via PbP. Right now I'll start with a single Standard PFS table for 2-13, Murder on the Throaty Mermaid (subtier 1-2). First 6 come will be served, although I also have room for 2 more alternates in case the others don't show up.

Use Sign Up Sheet link right below my name to sign up. All comments and criticism is welcome.

What time will this game be starting, Chadius?
