Discussion is open as well.
I'll want to play around with Iscarel's gear and skills a little more, but I'll do it before we start the adventure proper. Between our fighter with survival, our spellthief with trapfinding, and a druid I'm not entirely sure where to throw my points. Maybe some cross-class face skills?
As for gear I might actually jump on the thrown weapons bandwagon with a spear or two. Archery is definitely something I'll pursue in the future, either as a main build path or otherwise depending on how much frontline we find ourselves needing/if I can spare the feats.
The gameplay thread shows the line from the GM "is your party prepared..."
Do we as a party already know each other? Have we been hired or our group already arranged? I'm not quite sure in what context to phrase my roleplaying in the inn.
Yes, your group has already been hired and know each other. Sorry if I was not clear. I guess the mood between your characters could be described as almost an "old-friend".
Can you give a few more details?
Who hired us? For what purpose(s)? What kind of pay?
What can we expect to find?
Moreover I'm wondering what part of Faerun we're in. I'm pretty unfamiliar with the Realms as a setting so I want to read up on as much as I can. Where should I start?
I just want to make a note to everyone
I am a novice GM. Ive GM'd a couple games, I can't always promise perfection. But I can promise that
I will try my hardest towards that.
You have been hired by a wealthy merchant family to find their son. Who was one of the adventurers who protected the town. He had informed them though of the fruit inside. So naturally they are interested as well in that. The Town Mayor is recruiting your services as well to find ALL of the adventurers and hopefully save oakhurst and/or destroy the threat looming in the Citadel. So to give more perspective on that:
Primary Objective: Find the Merchant's son and the fruit.
Secondary Objective: Find the rest of the lost heroes.
Tetiary: Eliminate the threat of the citadel to Oakhurst forever.
That is encompassing the two clients who have hired you and what they ask. Does this make sense?
As for pay, assume its very generous and you can keep what you find along the way(except for the fruit obviously). For reasons why they selected you characters specifically, that will be revealed by gameplay.
No word from Brenna lately huh?
Sorry for my bump in the gameplay tab guys. Had a family occurrence unfortunately. So naturally I needed to prioritize. I have had no word from Brenna. Unfortunately, I am going to forward play, because I feel its not fair to make you guys wait on one person who should have made a post by now
I'm really sorry GM, i hope everything works out. There is absolutely no need to apologize.
I sent a private message her way. I say give her another week and give the recruitment thread a bump after that?
The pace so far is fine with me, boss. Take what time you need :)
I'll give her 72 hours, 3 days. If she doesn't respond. I will find new players.
