"There's a Legion that never was listed"- The Lost Legion -Kipling

Game Master Ghost1776

I've added some files to the campaign tab to represent maps and diagrams found during the library search. I'm still learning how to do this, so there are probably some things that could be improved.

You're doing fantastic work in my opinion. I made this among my favourites so that I can check back regularly.

I must say that of all the PbFs I played so far this one is the most intense and the best thing is. We haven't set out yet.

All the images are opening ok. Both constructions are huge! I'm trying to find the reference point for the Villa on the Silver Leaves but it seems it is running from me. Would you please tell me where it is?

Perhaps you would like to include the link to the map with the air routes in the campaign tab. Map. Easier to open and check.

Thank you, all of you players are doing great at this too. Every role playing game is a shared world. The feedback and energy that the players and game master feed each other is what drives the play and the story. Trust me without all of you this campaign and all these ideas and details would be still lurking unrealized in the back of my head.

Silver Leaves is to the west of the Ruins of Haviel, which is to the west of Stormheim, east of Charling, and north of Elvallie(or Elvalle I admit I'm not sure of the spelling).

Now at the latitude of Charling is an Imperial Highway that runs east west (Charling sits just under the Highway to the Highway's south). As the highway goes into the Elven Forest it past just beneath the Ruins of Haviel (and Silver Leaves) and then over the river.

Instead of doing the easy thing and going out of the forest once on the other side of the river it turns north running parallel to the river until it reaches the latitude of Lador where it continues east for a distance just beyond the forest surrounding Stormheim. The road then angles toward Welmore and actually crosses the mouth of the bay in an example of one of the greatest bridges ever build. This branch of the Imperial highway ends there.

Hey Ghost, did my pm come through?

It did I was so tired that I forgot all about it. Everthing looks good and is approved.

Communal Dream Feast, set in some great hall or humble hovel we've never seen, and will someday recognize? Glorious. Or perhaps the setting is from each of our pasts in turn, and the player 'hosting' gets to write that up?

One hazard: in the field, we would not all want to be asleep at once. Watches and such. But missing a meal can be forgiven.

It's still the dwarf's turn to do the dishes. :)

Road Map updated (Zoom required).

By the way, it would be wise to consider that both parties may have very different time settings, specially with all the trips. The one who heads for Castellan's keep will get there and start the posts like, 40 days ahead of the others, which might make comunication and meetings much harder to track. So having limited comunication (like a sending spell) would not bring much trouble to us.

I wouldn't mind having Kariel's ring be one that can cast Sending once per day every two levels or so (with a set destination of to a specific ring's wearer). That would allow for a bit of communication, but still impose some sort of constraint and make the separation meaningful. ^^ It's an option, anyway.

I think whatever spell is decided on it should be available to any of the 12 with either a once or twice a week limit for the entire group (I just reviewed the sending spell and that is one way communication, a twice a weak limit would let a brief question be asked and answered)

(I just reviewed the sending spell and that is one way communication, a twice a weak limit would let a brief question be asked and answered)

Well, not really:

That is, you receive the sending and may reply in 25 words. Anyway, It matters not the way to me. If it were me, I would limit the communication to avoid different-time problems, but I've given enough opinions so far, then I'll just wait for when it really starts.

Huh missed that when I read the spell description. Then maybe a 1 time a week use of sending would work.

I'll update Krag tomorrow.

I need to start writing up a description of the Pack's den, then, if that's true. :P

I think the sending spell will be the way we are going

But it would be so fun to take turns hosting dinner parties!

Also, Vigar, at the time of writing, we have the same number of posts.

What?

Ghost, can/will there be a legacy campaign, with the story based on our actions here? I would really like to continue playing with this group.

This campaign will continue as long as people are interested and real life permits. As for another campaign based on the story line here? Sooner or later I can almost guarantee it. I expect this one to run quite a while yet, however, as long as most adventure paths I think. I've certainly got enough material for it.

That'll be nice.

I'll be very interested in that campaign then. This current one already feels like some epic novel in the process of being written.

Awesome!

Everyone should level up.

I just went back and looked at the Gameplay and discussion threads, with an eye for role playing and story award experience. Truthfully I'm not finnished yet but it quickly became apparent you guys deserve to level up.

I haven't said how I'll be handling experience yet, I intended to have you level up together when it makes sense storywise, but I don't want to ignore good roleplaying other achievements either.

So I won't break down experience point awards each time but this time let me show a little of my thinking.

-400exp Story Award to each player Accepting relationship with the Professor and decided to work together (this may have seemed simple, and the only thing to do, but more then once I've seen groups completely and totally seen screw up the opening of an adventure/or campaign at this stage, and the setup for this one was pretty exotic)

-400exp Story Award to each player Discovering and retaining information about one of the major campaign secrets Tassira's struggling with what to do with that information now, but it could have just easily been any of you to find that information and it's important for you to have, maybe not right now but eventually.

-100exp Story Award to each player Discoverig the names of significant NPC's It probaly didn't seem like much, but there's a diffence between when I hand you an important NPC name like Elyas the wizard, and you gather them on your on through questions, and research. Krag turned up 2 and at 1st level that was 50exp each for member of the party.

-200exp to each player Making good use of the library for research I know another another simple thing right? Wrong I seen group on many occassions miss helpful things, or simply forget to ask any questions. As a group you made use of this excellance resource and got important information. You deserve exp. for that.

-???exp excellant role playing I didn't even get halfway through just the gameplay thread when the totals for indivdiual roleplaying awards for each of you ranged from 100exp to 525exp I know for a fact that you all have gone on in the same manner or simply gotten better. If you all stayed on pace 200exp to 1100 exp should have been the individual awards for role play. Plus I was planning on adwarding bonus exp for good role play in the disscussion thread.

So everyone consider this the medium advancement track and record 2000 experince points. I'm unlikely to do a break down like this agian, and will probably just tell you tell level up when the story demands it, but in my opinion you've earned this one.

Sweet as.

Noyce.

Woop.

We don't get a free point per level for the bonus 3 skills at character creation do we?

And what was the hp/level again?

Whooppeee.

Max hp for the first 3 levels, 1/2+1 for each level after that.

Skill points: no bonus background points for going up a level, but remember each class gets 2 extra skill points per level.

Nice.

1 UP
Eldrian the Level 2 Slayer

12 extra hp = +10(slayer)+1(con)+1(favoured)
10 skill points = Acrobatics, Climb, Craft(Bows), Nature, Geography, Local, Perception, Sense Motive, Stealth, Survival = 6(class)+2(int)+2(bonus)
+1 BAB
+1 Fortitude
+1 Reflex
Slayer Talent = Ranger Combat Style(Ex): Archery (Rapid Shot)

Yay! Level up!

Level 2

+7 HP = +6 (Sorcerer) +1 (Con)
+7 Skill Pts = +1 Appraise, +1 Bluff, +1 Diplomacy, +1 Fly, +1 Knowledge (Engineering), +1 Spellcraft, +1 Use Magic Device = 2 (Class) +3 (Int) +1 (Skilled) +1 (Favored Class Bonus)
+1 BAB
+1 Will
New Spell: Detect Magic
+1 Level 1 Spell/Day

Oh man, I forgot the extra skill points! I have to go through and recalculate my skills now!

You also get an extra spell per day Tassira. :)

Just a reminder the lawyer is waiting for you guys to stop by his office.

Already accounted for, Eldrian. :)

Just forgot to write it down.

So I just read through the Advanced Class Guide...

Considering that we haven't actually gotten into combat yet, and I've been acting like it's my class anyways, can I change my class to the Hunter? It's literally what I imagine this character as, and I didn't get the chance to read the ACG until now.

But amplified rage...

But amplified rage...

I'll still keep the rage class feature in my character's traits, though there might be some sort of penalty to this. GM?

Plus, this way I can Awaken Chalimar later on.

lol Amplified Rage is nice but oww....

I'm fine with it.

LOL, scanning the posts, -400 for this -200 for that, I was thinking, "Wow, we missed a lot...". I see now, they were meant as dashes, not minuses.

Will assemble levelup choices and post that shortly. Staying Oracle for now, but considering Cleric for spell versatility at some point. Any thoughts?

Cleric? Why Cleric?
Oracle by itself should be able to cover most spells and you have the human favored option if it comes down to that.

Level up

HP 10(level) +2 (Con) +1 (favored)=+13
Bab +1
Fort/Ref +1
Combat Style (Two Handed) BonusFeat: Power Attack (-1/+2)
Perception +1
Survival +1
Stealth +1
Know-Geography +1
Know-Nature +1
Climb +1
Swim +1
Ride +1
Handle Animal +1
Intimidate +1
Profession-Bounty Hunter +1

Level up!

HP 8(level) +2 (Con) +1 (favored)=+11
Bab +1
Fort/Ref/Will +1
Bonus Feat: Improved Grapple
Acrobatics +1
Climb +1
Intimidate +1
Knowledge (arcana) +1
Perception +1
Sense Motive +1
Stealth +1

Cleric? Why Cleric?

Oracle by itself should be able to cover most spells and you have the human favored option if it comes down to that.

Cleric has access to the whole list, Oracle has ... 5 or 6 spells?

I also see the efficiency of sticking with Oracle. So for 2nd level, she did:

2nd-level Oracle adds:
1st-Level Spell: Faerie Fire (Stargazer Mystery)
0-Level Spell: Guidance
"Lady of Secrets, Guide your eye, your hand, and heart."
0-Level Spell: Create Water (Favored Class Add)
Hit Points +8 +2 CON = +10 (23 Total)

4 Skill Points +1 Human +2 Houserule +2 INT = +9

Newly-ranked Skills:
KN: Planes
KN: Religion
KN: Arcana
KN: Dungeoneering
Diplomacy

Adding 1 rank to skills:
Intimidate
Disguise
Perception
UMD

I always play clerics opposed to oracles. Just my preference.

Remind me not to post from my iPhone any more. What I type and what ends up on the post are never the same.

lol I get the feeling Krag. Android phone does almost the same thing too.
