I have been asked what sort of Roleplaying and carryover to expect in this Long Campaign. It comes down to this. It is your interactions with each other, your quirks and flaws and goodies that will make this long campaign shine. As this is official PFS content and scenarios, I am not going to modify anything so your characters are PFS legal at all times. However, if you encounter the same NPC's or locations or such, they will remember past actions from your group (good or bad), and that may be a good thing...
And yes, for Gameday 7 (and higher) we will be "playing" a scenario there, if only for the boon chance.......

Throughout the year there will be gamedays where players can sign up to play in PbP games, Tons of them. Complete with boons. Think of it as an online convention that takes place over a couple of months (as it takes about 6 weeks to do a scenario and they generally have 2 start times).

On the last Gameday, I took part in 9 scenarios and didn't get a single boon. Got close once, but still no go. If my memory is correct, I only saw one person win a boon.

I got the GM boon and one other for mounted combat that I will probably never use. The GM boon I have used on my Mesmerist.

I hope y'all don't mind this and its not to over the top I just figured this is how my character would react.
If it's to over the top I will ease up.
Ebert has a chip on his shoulder that he can't seem to get rid of.

This is a pre-typed message I created for this situation to allow me to copy/paste the message to all the games I am taking part in.
I suffer from Chronic Pancreatitis that on average every 6 months turns into Acute Pancreatitis. The Acute version requires me to be hospitalized between 3 to 5 days on average if it is severe enough. Unfortunately, my local hospital has Piazo's website blocked for some reason. So during this time I will not be able to post anything.
I'm posting this message because I can feel the pain that begins the Acute stage and will be going to the ER. If it is not severe enough to require hospitalization then I will make a post as soon as possible to state things are all clear. If that post doesn't happen within 12 hours, then it means I am in the hospital.
If need be, feel free to bot my character during combat or if any skill rolls that would really help the group.
Sorry for any inconvenience this will cause.

Good news. My pancreatic enzyme count was higher than it should be but not high enough to hospitalize me. So they just prescribed me some oxycodone and sent me home.

Sorry, guys a flu bug has jumped and bit me, so I am out of action tonight. Hope to return to posting tomorrow. Feel free to bot Duncan as needed.

GM Emmjay thank you for the run!! I'm looking Forward to the next scenario.
Thank you everyone it has been fun so far.
Marianna I always got your back.
@GM Emmjay: A question: I would like to change my alignment from LN to NG As we are still level 1 and rebuild is still possible. I feel play wise he would be more NG than LN.

Just so you all can start planning what to buy before character sheets come out, you all will receive 2pp and 430 gold + Day Job roll (if any).
Also, at this point, if you have any character change - and I mean any - go ahead and do it. This is the time for it. Even though we are sticking together as a group for many, many adventures, this is still PFS legal stuff, and you can change anything you need, or feel the need, to.

DM, I do not want to retrain, except perhaps a skill but I am feeling really useless. My action in the last fight was ignored and then, even though it was a misplaced name, not even included in the attempt to recruit the person to the Society.
How can we change this?

You might want to look at what you are doing, especially as far as combat and non-combat things go. For example, you wanting to cast Ghost Sound, well a good idea (in theory), as big as the warehouse it, it would do little to actually change what the agents would be doing - especially as there were two different groups. With our guys just standing there and ignoring it, well, they would as well. If you wanted to play off the "haunted" then you needed to get your companions to act scared or something. Just making a noise in the corner wouldn't affect them, and at best affect just 2 of the group. They are dumb, not stupid. Especially since the group was trying to diplomatically get them to leave....
As far as you trying to charm the person. Well, it would have mattered had one of your companions not cut him down with a full attack. No need to roll for a dead guy.
As far as you not getting a roll, with me doing a copy/paste, I just forgot to change the name.... But you will notice that your modifier (+4) was there.
You are a good support character, at least as far as you are currently built. Your spells are meant to aid the group and support them, not to deal damage. I just think you choose the wrong spell(s) to cast... At your first opportunity I would have cast Color Spray to attempt to blind/daze/unconscious them.
You have a 18 in Charisma yet you haven't put a single point into Diplomacy, or even used a talent to make Diplomacy a class skill and put a point into it.
The problem I have found with playing a purely support character is the fact that you have to make sure that whatever you do has the best chance, and ability, to help the group as much as possible. Every spell cast has to make the best bang for the buck. If you were intent on casting Charm Person, I would have moved to a location that you could have cast it on the healer, not their fighter, as the fighter was already in melee range of several companions and could have (and did) get beaten during the combat round. Not my personal cup of tea, but to each their own.
If I was playing your character, the ONLY thing I would change (at least for the next scenario) is find a way to make Diplomacy (or Intimidate or Bluff) as all 3 use CHA a class skill if it isn't already, and then invest a point into it and be a "face" for the group. I personally suggest Diplomacy as it is the most common social skill used, but Intimidate and Bluff are also strong contenders.

Thanks for the offer, but I'll likely grab one of my own, if anything to spread upkeep around. You'll likely be the one using it, anyway.
