Well, he did mention recruitment would be open until like... March 13. That's 2-3 weeks.


Resources:
1st: 8/8 2nd: 8/8, 3rd: 7/7 4th: 5/5 5th: 4/4 Sacrificial Boon: 9/9 Rallying Cry: 1/1
Dashing Ex-Con 10 (HP 62/62; AC:18, T:12, FF:14; Fort:+9 Ref:+11 Will:+10; Init+4; Perc+0) (Effects: Mage Armor)

Yea, but this kind of thing is a little niche. There isn't that much overlap between LOl players and PF players. Maybe if he likes our PCs enough he'll end it early.


Character Sheet

So I'm doing either Volibear, Alistar, or maybe Zilean.

I had a feeling you were going to pick those three. :)

What race for Volibear though?


Character Sheet

It's not very good but this 3rd party race would work.

Scroll down to bear.


Male Human (Chelaxian) Oracle of Life 4

Zilean might be an Oracle of Time, if you end up pursuing that. Maybe with some Sorcerer sprinkled in?

Yea, that's pretty bad. Bear's Might seems unusually restrictive. But getting Improved Grapple is nice.


Male Human (Chelaxian) Oracle of Life 4

Things like that are the reason I'm not particularly fond of 3pp stuff. It tends to be either wildly awful or wildly overpowered.

1st: 8/8 2nd: 8/8, 3rd: 7/7 4th: 5/5 5th: 4/4 Sacrificial Boon: 9/9 Rallying Cry: 1/1

Pretty much. Though it wouldn't take much. I'd just buff the Bear's Might thing a bit.


Character Sheet

Alistar would be a barbarian | life oracle.

Volibear will be a barbarian | monk.

Zilean will be an alchemist | oracle.

I am not surprised by any of that. Can Alchemist's get Breath of Life?


Character Sheet

I believe so.

Sounds good then.


Good morning everyone. My family and I are going on vacation Monday, March 4 through Saturday, March 9. During that time, I do not expect to have a reliable internet connection.

We will be traveling for most of Monday, so I will definitely not post that day. Starting Tuesday, I will try to update threads at least once a day, but it may not be possible depending on the internet situation.

Just wanted to warn everyone ahead of time if I end up going silent for the entire week.


Male Human (Chelaxian) Oracle of Life 4

Damn, Korvus. At least take him to dinner, first.


Hi everyone, just a note to let people know I'm back from vacation and will be updating threads again starting today.


Character Sheet

Welcome back!


Male Human (Chelaxian) Oracle of Life 4

Neat. Looking forward to it when I get home from work!

Okay, I have to apologize for not being very active for the last week or so.

I just started a job, while taking a full load of classes at my college, and doing 15 hours of observation at an Elementary school for one of those classes, so I have been mentally and emotionally drained and not really in the proper shape to be contributing meaningfully to the game.

My last day of observation is Thursday, so after that, it should be full speed ahead, but I will likely get bogged down with papers and such in the coming month or two. I kindly request your patience.

I'm going to be out of town for the next 3-4 days. My internet access will be sporadic at best, but I'll try to check in if possible.


All,
Just wanted to post about some happenings in my life.

We have had some major turnover at work in the past few weeks, and as a result, my responsibilities have significantly changed. Unfortunately, making posts in my DM games is going to be very difficult for a while during work hours, so my posting will generally occur in the evenings.

I may make some posts from time to time during the day, but I anticipate those to be the exception rather than the rule. I should have time to answer specific questions here and there, it's just the official story updates that I won't be able to post.

Anyway, I'll do my best to maintain daily updates, but I may miss a day here or there. I just wanted everyone to know ahead of time in case it happens.

That's it, thanks.

No worries, I totally understand work getting in the way of gaming. Stupid bosses not understanding the need to update PBPs.. :)


Male Human (Chelaxian) Oracle of Life 4

Not a problem at all, bossman. I think I can speak for everybody when I say we're still having a blast. :)

Hope they're payin' ya more now that you're bustin' your butt more. ;)


Male Human (Chelaxian) Oracle of Life 4

Sorry for being so quiet, guys, but I've been getting absolutely drowned in stuff to do for my final reports and such. I'm probably going to still be MIA until at least Friday, and I apologize for it.


Regarding the guard at the stairs, I'm not trying to be difficult here, but so far Lucius has told a fairly unconvincing lie (his Bluff check was 11), and now Bjorn is threatening the guard and getting ready to start a fight.

Out of curiosity, why haven't you asked anybody in the bar who the men were? Why haven't you asked the guard about the club or its members? Why haven't you asked about joining the club? Why not leave and try to hide outside with the rest of your group until you see the men leave the bar?

I'm just saying there are several options available to you that don't involve Bluff checks or combat that nobody has tried yet.

So let me know if you still want combat to ensue. We'll do it if you want to, but it's definitely not the only way to achieve your goals.

Because we're not very bright. We left our wizard out on the street..


Character Sheet

As far as Bjorn knows these men are suspect, either in connection with the Whispering Way or Alpy's cover-up. Those suspects are in sight (or just out of sight). He's not going to waste time asking around to gather information or looking for clue when his goal (the suspicious characters) are within reach. He doesn't particularly care what kind of club this is or how one becomes a member.

So far the entire AP has been about chasing unknown villains and trying to solve mysteries. For once there's a target in sight. I plan to act on that.

If this random bouncer is an unshakable pillar of resolve, Bjorn will go through him.

And I will sneak away while Bjorn is being pummeled. Or our two half orcs could come in and y'know, help us figure out a way?

Those are all good ideas for Lucius but entirely out of character for the big were-blooded viking.

Sorry for the absence! I've been sick as a dog since returning from San Francisco yesterday. Trying to catch up now.

Hey everyone, sorry for my absence. I've been sick as a dog (again!) with a sinus infection, and this is the first I've felt like sitting up in front of a computer in a few days. Working to catch up now.


Meant to have the trial update last night, but all the storms last night dropped a couple of trees and we lost internet as I was writing the post.

So sorry for the delay, I'll have it up tonight.

Sorry for the delay in posting. The movers come day after tomorrow, so we've been busy packing up the house. I'll try to get something up soon.


Apologies for my random schedule the past week or so. We have had a number of storms in the area, and several large trees have been falling around my neighborhood. We've lost power at least five times that I can remember, and we still don't have tv or internet (day three). Just a freak stretch of weather we're having.

Anyway, work seems to be settling down a bit and it looks like my daily routine is moving back to a "normal" state. Assuming that happens (which I think is likely), I'd like to get back into the at least a post per day habit. If this causes a problem for anybody, please let me know. I know my absence has been tough on the game, and I appreciate everyone's perseverance and patience.

I think Alexei is gone but everyone else seems to still be around.

Yeah, Alexei was having some trouble with his schedule, but he's been gone for a month.

Do we need a replacement or good to go with who we have?

I'm still about though sorry I'm being quiet. I'm trying to finish up some freelance RPG design work at the same time that all hell decides to break loose at my job.

I'm good to go with four.

Okay, I heard back from him and will not be returning. We'll move forward with the four we have.

Hey everyone! Sorry for the unexpected silence, but this is the first chance I've had to get on the 'net since Sunday. Monday we drove most of the day from our old town to our new town to close on our new house, Tuesday the movers arrived with all of our stuff, and today the phone company finally connected our Internet. So we're slowly getting settled in. Working to catch up now!

And very sorry to see Alexei go!

"That's pretty much all for today. Tomorrow we are defending against the Hergstag murders - anything you can find would be a great help. This is one where the sisters saw - and accurately identified - the Beast carrying one of the dead children. I'd suggest speaking with them if you haven't already."

Ooooh! Who are the sisters from Hergstag who identified Alpy carrying one of the dead children, and where can we find them?


They left Hergstag when it was abandoned and set up a small mill near the western gate of Lepidstadt. Supposedly, they make the best bread in town!


Was trying to have a map done tonight but son got sick so all my time got sucked up dealing with that.

Will have the map up tomorrow, sorry for the delay.

No worries. Hope he feels better soon!


Character Sheet

Sick son is no good. =(


Feeling better tonight, thankfully! :)

Map is up. There is a red square under Bjorn, Lucius, and Harold marking the pit under the door (which is a white rectangle). Korvus is on the edge of the pit.

Please post actions as if in combat.

Just so everyone knows, the interior of the building after you leave the meeting room very acrid and sulfuric - almost making your eyes water. The chemicals in this place are highly concentrated, and in the wrong hands, could be extremely dangerous.


Sorry for the lack of an update guys, been trying for two nights and site keeps dropping me.

I'll have the next room description up today after I get back from lunch.
