The Hollow Man (Inactive)

Game Master trux

Well I always change things. .a bit anyway, so I have no problem.

Ok recruitment is up under my main alias, Chillblame.
here it is
Just identify yourself from this game and produce a character according to the guide lines. Closes Friday next week, unless I get a good party sooner.

That looks like fun, thanks Karl, Chillblame.

Rata, I'd consider running a cigar-chewing ranger robot-killer.
I'll cede that to your slayerness. Perhaps I'll just come up with something to round out the group if we go that route?

But just want to check. Chilly, if we come up with a temp DM, will you have time to DM your Iron Gods, as well as participate here?

It sounds like Morti, Caromir, Myself are likely for (CONTINUE? Y/N)
Karl, Okrin, Rata, what do you think?

If we do Fiasco, I'm partial to the Dallas 1963 playset. It sounds like we may have only three for that game, however.

I figure that we'll see a delayed posting schedule, whoever assumes temp-DM here.

I'd continue here. As interested as I am in checking out Iron Gods I'm afraid I just don't have the time to do a proper character.

I'm in of course. I'm in a few games but one is winding down and I am handling the load. Tis fun I tell thee.

I am here for the long haul, wherever it may take us ;)

Okay if anyone else can step in for Grimmy, speak now before I buy into Necromancer.

Morti, Rata, will you be joining us if I tempGM?(TM)?

I love this game, but at this point I can only handle either this or IG, not both.

Well, I just don't want to overextend myself that's all. I loved this world when I first read about it and Rata is my favorite character at the moment, so who knows. Maybe we can make something work. We'll see.

Mak, if you want to take the other side of the screen on this game, I'll keep playing!

Trux/Makirut here

Thanks everyone for making your intentions clear!
Please let me share my thoughts with ya

Rata and Mak will be thrown into stasis as sideline NPCs with minimal roles during the DMG hiatus. I do this in hopes of keeping rata and mak intact but unimportant while you guys take the limelight.

Imaginary palladin Cian and the dear Baron will be party-aligned NPCs if you need them.

I am currently working out who and what is happening in the village (behind the scenes).
My hope is to step things forward gradually. We will give Grimmy as much time as possible! Watch our gameplay thread for more!

Still lurking ;)

This worked out really well.
I want to be clear, based off the module G-baby was using it was high time for the canines to GTFO. I don't want you all to feel like I am babying you, just because I had a dog in that fight!

Old-School-Feel is still the goal.

Woot! Evil is afoot, because it's to conservative to go metric.

Sorry to neglect over the weekend. Game on!

Also, I'm unclear from above whether Rata's sticking around or not? Seems like our active roster for now is me, Karl, Caramir, and Okrin -- would probably be useful to have the Baron along as torch-bearer, where by "torch" I mean "channel energy".

My understanding is Rata has thrown his energy into R-66Y.

He will probably be convalescing in the village until we hear otherwise.

Don't worry. The divine caster stays. Should any of you come across any friends or contacts who are interested in Clericery, please let me know.

Will do, but we could go for recruitment also.

Hopefully we can find someone we trust to be a good match.

-I assume Grimmy will be back in action.-

Not my wish to take the campaign from him. Unless you guys fear DM-PC, I am okay with NPC cleric. If we continue this for a month w/out Good Ole Grimey, I will assuredly post recruitment for a healer.

How does that sound?

Sounds good to me ;)

yup, yup

Sounds like a plan.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words.

Everyone feel free to level up to Lvl 2 at your leisure. I mark everyone as having 3,000 exp.

Yay

Plan was to start the multi classing. Not sure if that jives story wise. Can play it as if Okrin was already investigating the wizardly ways or hold off.

Well, Caramir is going to take his first level as wizard, going into EK ;)

Because the module we are running is structured in a unique fashion, I believe your stated desires to MultiClass would not create any obstacle at this point.

Guys, you do realize, however, that neither of you carry spellbooks?
I have a few ideas on how we might be able to find you some on short notice, but we are in a low-loot zone.

Bear with me in the gameplay thread, and we will take care of you.

I'm totally fine holding off for a bit level wise. Whatever works for the gameplay.

Hmmmm I had pondered the possibility of Caramir carrying a spellbook as a heirloom or something similar, which he would study every once in a while if the opportunity presented itself, but never got around to roleplay it.

Okrin, are you planning on going wizard also? If so, I may rejiggle my character some - don't really think we will need two wizards ;)

Maybe I go with something more divine?

Plan was monk of the empty hand / scrollmaster, wizard archetype.

The idea would to be to use spells to prep scrolls as weapons. A bit of bluff thrown in for good measure to seem harmless.

Still you would be a fully functional wizard, right?

At least it looks like it from looking at the Archetype ;)

Yep.

Okrin is of course our Original Wizard-connection.
Your temp-gm is not concerned with party balance for now.
Gentlemen/ladies it is all your party.

Caramir, an heirloom spell book seems like an easy way out. If both of you want to hand-wave the issue, we can. I had envisioned a late-night story mechanism to furnish each of you with the necessary books. We can cut the fluff if you like.

Shall we assume the party continues the watch rotation for the night?
For argument's sake, it is 1am in Levoca at this point.

What will everyone's lvl 2 class choice be?

Planning to continue in fighter2.

Actually I have to have a spellbook, it is a magus requirement. So I added it. I simple forgot to write the damn this down.

Leveled up.

Will only be able to level up later today - will get to it then ;)

I have some ideas fluff wise that I want to toss out. Should have a chance to get to that this morning (1 hr or so). Otherwise, I'll update this afternoon for sure.

So my thought was that Okrin might create his initial spellbook (or have already created it) with/in the cloth of his robes.

Check out the 3PP fluff here.

Certainly is an interesting idea. You are welcome to run with that if you like.

We can assume you both have those spellbooks and move on if you like.

Cool. I'll likely narrate some of the specifics of crafting it for fun, but for speed sake will work up the 1st level of wizard in the alias. Going to take a relevant Craft skill also. Let me know if you want any rolls

May I assume that thread, cloth, and needles might be purchased in the village?

I can search for it, but figured I'd ask. How were we doing HP / lvl? Roll just incase.

Hit points: 1d6 ⇒ 4

You may choose to either roll or take the average.

You may take the average on a roll of a one.
Please roll for HP in your next post if that is your wish. (Okrin excepted)

Okrin: You may skip the craft skill unless it is one you wish to incorporate for the character's use later. Anna has possibly lent you some sewing supplies already.

Got it. HP adjusted accordingly. Still need to pick starting spells and such, but other stats and wizard school abilities have been posted.

lvl 2 hit points: 1d10 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

welp, guess I'm taking the average!

Picking up Imp. Shield Bash, not sure anything else of terrible interest. :)

Spells and skills updated. We're just using Pathfinder spells, right? No 3PP? I've also subtracted the cost of the cloth spellbook from my gold total.

0 3PP

0 Golarion specific

I"ll need some help when it comes to Golarion specific so let me know if I picked something that's off limits. Spells with deity references it's easy to tell in d20pfsrd (which is my go to).

Everything looks fine, master Goodspeed

OK guys, apologies for all the delays - last couple of days have been hectic...

Going to take a level in Wizard :D

Hit Points: 1d6 ⇒ 1... Guess that means average hp...

Character alias updated.

If I'm eventually multi-classing to cleric, oughta start practicing with the preaching, no?

So, I've been at this for over a week. I hope you guys are enjoying playing at a slower pace. Please let me know if you ever find yourself sitting there, thinking " GET TO THE DAMN POINT ALREADY, TRUX "

As always, I endeavor to oblige you guys.
