Welcome to the three of you. We'll be underway soon. Please post back stories in a spoiler under your character alias. Thanks.

Shadow Lodge

David, you should read this.


Ok Dokie.


Male Orc Ranger

There she blows!


..... Josh is totally going to break my tiefling. Instead of taking something like a plus ability score he goes for..... USE LARGE WEAPONS. I can feel the ban hammer coming down now.

Shadow Lodge

He wants you to take that instead of the stat boost? I don't care. Just make sure you lower the stat you altered in the first place.

Also, How are you going to survive the wilderness, let alone complete an accurate map with no gear whatsoever? You guys don't even have bed rolls...

Make sure you buy stuff for that and post it. BTW, back up weapons and ranged options are always a good idea.


Male Orc Ranger

BULLSHIT BEDROLLS! I SLEEP ON THE GROUND I AM A MOTHER ORC FREAKIN!

OOC: Now i am no expert but the way i am reading the feats is that in order for the tiefling to have the different stat increases as well as the heritage ability bonuses is a feat called Fiendish Heritage? And to make it worse i think they are supposed to be randomed. I am currently still in Orc but a giant red demon wielding a large greatsword i would fear would be OP.


Male Orc Ranger

Sweet I am done


Male Hobgoblin Barbarian

LETS DO THIS


Male Orc Ranger

Be witness to the great savage!


Male Hobgoblin Barbarian

So, of the three, the highest Charisma score is 15, which is pretty decent, for typical adventuring. However, later in the Kingmaker campaign, Charisma becomes a HUGE DEAL, as it affects persuasiveness/leadership score/success of the ruling body, and the end goal of this game being we three ruling a nation.

Thanatos, I would suggest to put one of your stat bumps (the ones at level 4, 8, etc) into Charisma, to bring that +2 to a +3. Or acquire a headband that does something similar.

Secondly, we will be depending on the Use Magic Device skill a lot if we do not have an arcane caster; please keep that in mind when allocating skill points.


Male Orc Ranger

YO BRO I HAS magics devices and some sick spellcraftyness skills! SHUP!


Ya, definitely putting level 4 point into CHA.


Male Orc Ranger

I WANT TO HAS MORE CORRISMA! But alas I think i put all my points into strength? And I think we are waiting on Rydog.


Male Orc Ranger

Lets gut these b*@#&es and give the farm to the brigadiers, solve two problems. We let this "mercy" go and we'll have others to follow! now is the time to stop this in its tracks if not we'll have problems down the road imo!

*SUFFER NOT THE WORK OF A HERITIC TO LIVE!*


Male Hobgoblin Barbarian

I'm not sure the bandits want to own the trading post, just reap the profits of it. They currently got a good thing going -stealing from a defenseless elderly couple, who are doing all the work, earning the coin. Bandits don't like to work for coin.

I don't know, just firing from the hip here:

What if we try to recruit those who visit in the morning? We would need a bargaining chip, like promising a higher cut on treasure stolen (we don't need to keep promises). Then go to their base/camp/hideout that night (we three can see in the dark) and kill their leader. Then we have a few who already support us as we take over without killing all of them. Once we control the bandits, we can collect a "protection tax" from the trading post. Thoughts? Ideas?


Male Orc Ranger

*SUFFER NOT THE WORK OF A HERITIC TO LIVE!* Kill all leave nothing in our wake. Those that do not join die!


Male Hobgoblin Barbarian

I didn't plan on my character doing all the talking. Maybe for the current situation at the bandit camp, one of you can say we have knowledge of a secret treasure trove? I dunno. Something to pique their interest.

Alternatively, Thanatos, do you have a way to extinguish the fires? If we can blind them, the fight will go easier.


Male Orc Ranger

Please refer to previous statements regarding heretics.


Male Orc Ranger

We might want to consider another recourse the straight back to our base, maybe some kind of test or what not. But keep in mind at some point soon theses guys will be alone with oleg. Do we trust them? We may end up coming back to a raided trading post with two dead old people on our hands. Like it or not Oleg is kinda the only person that matters so far. Again, FOR THE RECORD, I vote we kill one at random or kill which ever one confesses. We seem to favor the carrot over the stick!

What do we want our kingdom to be known as? Something we might want to ponder over. I envision a viking'ish-aztec society where were raiding and looting yet we come home to a few nice sacrifices to relax to. What our you two's goals?

Remember evil campaign we can play/think outside of the lawful good box.


Male Hobgoblin Barbarian

Viking/aztec sounds good. Looting and raiding suits Nor fine, given his history as a merc. Given the amount of rivers in the River Kingdoms, it might be good to procure a few longships later down the road. RIVER REAVERS. Just a thought.

I agree that Oleg is important. I'm just as nervous that the old man might try something to get revenge on the bandits, and get himself killed.

If we end up killing one of the bandits for leaving a trail, we should go raiding after Olegs quickly so these bandits remember the benefits of switching sides.


YES to raiding. That's an awesome idea. Where can we procure long boats though? Oleg's doesn't seem to have the equipment for that.


Male Orc Ranger

WE MAKE THE BOATS! We make the Kingdom! Dagoth's Savagers sounds fantastic?

Ya now we got to fight them all, but hey its better then a sneak attack late at night after one of us fails a perception :)

sry you two for all those crits.

Male Tiefling Zen Archer Monk

I like the pseudo-Pocahantas avatar and the hideous picture on the profile. Sorry for the delay, fellas. Work's been nuts. Almost done with a wizard.

Also, I can't afford acid flasks, but at least one of us might need them if we come across a swarm. Just sayin'...


Male Tiefling Zen Archer Monk

I have money, I'll check it out. I'll remake it soon.


Male Tiefling Zen Archer Monk

K, grabbed Acid flasks.

Shadow Lodge

All approved. I'll start the game thread again in a bit.


Male Half-Feraweni Rogue HP: 69/69 AC: 27

Reporting for duty and awaiting GMs approval.

Shadow Lodge

Approved!


Male Half-Feraweni Rogue HP: 69/69 AC: 27

Yay!


Male Half-Feraweni Rogue HP: 69/69 AC: 27

Does anybody know why I can't seem to edit posts any more?

Shadow Lodge

You only get an hour.


Male Half-Feraweni Rogue HP: 69/69 AC: 27

Dang, one of my posts on the Gameplay side is now kinda inane.


Male Feraweni Wizard 9

I derped and bought my items before reading the scroll creation rules thoroughly. I bought ink, quill, and paper for scribing, not knowing the cost of such material is "subsumed in the cost for scribing a scroll." (p. 552 core). This is not much of a problem now, but later when I want to create 2nd and 3rd level spells, the actual cost of materials will be less than the scroll creation cost, and I prefer consistency.

Would it be easier if I designate a certain amount of my coin as "raw materials" for scroll making? Or just pay the cost, and not worry about the details?
Your call, DSP.

Edit: Also, can I keep my misspent coin, to spend in future scrollings?

Shadow Lodge

Question 1: Just pay the cost of scribbing the scroll. If you can work the purchase of such materials into your role play every so often, that would be fun, but I'm not going to freak out if you don't.

Question 2: Yes, but keep it for whatever you want.

General comment: Everyone make sure you know how your class abilities and feats and such work before you take them or use them. I'm not a fan of do-overs past level 1. If you are looking at something that could be interpreted a number of ways, check with me before adding it officially. "I didn't realize that's how it worked" will not be grounds for altering a character past level 1.


Male Feraweni Wizard 9

Cool. Thanks.


Male Half-Feraweni Rogue HP: 69/69 AC: 27

I took points in intimidate thinking it would mostly be used during role-play bits. But after looking around some, it seems to have a combat function?
