Treasurefox's Rise of the Runelords (Inactive)

Game Master TreasureFox

I played a halfling thief once. She was a pickpocket archetype. Spent more time discreetly putting money INTO people's pockets rather than taking them.

Sounds quite Chaldiran

Hmm, mid level prolific thief with a guise on him to give as much money as he's stolen from people.

While I was sick, I spent a lot of time looking into brothels and how they function in the real world. Most of what I discovered came from Nevada, USA. The rest is me doing whatever the heck I want.

Gotta love a DM who does his research. Did it involve watching Cathouse?

No. I've never heard of Cathouse. What is it?

We're starting to get some submissions. Feel free to check them out, as I'd very much appreciate your opinion. Anyone who posts in the recruitment tab of this campaign are included as well.

They are here

Wabbit: I'm trusting you to be my "That's so min/maxed that it'll eclipse the game" adviser. Your Pathfinder-fu is far stronger than mine.

Well one, it was a joke, cathouse was, (I believe) an HBO reality series about one of Nevada's most famous brothels. The moonlight bunny ranch.

All dwarf party playing something like Ironfang Invasion might work

That's a good start. Wabbit is king of the fu!

Lol, I love you man, such a great way to run it.

I once joined an all-dwarf Giantslayer campaign once. It never got off the ground. The DM went afk and never came back.
I've thought in the past of running a reflavoured all-dwarf kingmaker game too, where the dwarves would delve below and reclaim an ancient city. I think that would be a ton of fun.

I've watched a ton of vids regarding the Moonlight Bunny Ranch. Alice Little has a youtube channel. She's wonderful, and I've learned a ton from her.

I'm glad you like it, Janis! I watched a vid so I understood the basics of Texas Hold'em, and tried to figure out how to put chance, skill, and strategy together into a relatively quick representation. I didn't just want to roll one die, though. I find that to be too anti-climactic.

While we wait for Wabbit, could you please put up your stats in your profile for me, Janis? I'd also like a header for quickstats like the others have.

I think that's everything of import

Thanks, that's great.

I'm going to be wrapping up the recruitment come Friday, so would you guys please check out some of the submissions and provide me with your feedback? I would like you guys to have a say in who gets picked.

I've only glanced casually at the recruits so far. I found it pretty funny that some of my players from my Hell's Rebels game submitted characters as well.

Here is the recruitment page

Right now I'm leaning towards the new gingerberry because I'm still kind of stuck on the idea of an entire gingerberry family adventuring party. So take it with a grain of salt.

The more short people the better

I'll take it with a grain of salt, but thanks nonetheless for your input. An entire Gingerberry party would be hilarious, but I'm not going to push for that.
I can only imagine the final nemesis looking down at the heroes... a bunch of Halflings.

If I die again, I'm making a half orc barbarian adopted by the family. A really really dumb one.

Bonus points if they use slings, and ride on the half orc(ogre?)'s shoulders.

I'm fine with that.

Hey are you two not going to watch the mill workers? At nightfall you are back to meeting up with us to follow the Justice.

thought we were expecting them around nightfall

Yeah.. I thought the same.... That's why I thought arriving at the brothel midday was going to be a LOT of time there... Janis is going to run out of money...

But if we're going Justice following send Furnok in to retrieve us

Hmmm... well looking back yeah I see the confusion.

Cleo was suggesting for Wabbit and Janis to stake out the mill workers during the day while the rest of the party rests up. So they ALL can follow the Justice tonight. Since Janis isn't fatigued and Wabbit is immune to being tired. They had free time where the rest of us might not (assuming Treasure starts making the stay up all night rolls harder and harder)

We can hold off on following the Justice for the night since you two are already set up to watch the mill workers tonight.

No worries. Just had it wrapped around wrongly in my head.

Meh, we were all a little wrong in the head. Let's make sure to play it out in game though, I like a consistent narrative.

Bonus points if they use slings, and ride on the half orc(ogre?)'s shoulders.

Cleo runs Bartertown!

Okay, so, looking at current entries I find myself liking Shifter the best.

Thanks for inviting me aboard, hope to be a fun and consistent player. I understand DM TreasureFox has some questions before I get integrated, so looking forward to those.

WELCOME Andreste! Glad to have you join our merry band of do-gooders.

Also I love the flying squirrel

Now with history and personality details!

That's no squirrel! I see those tentacles.

Welcome Andreste. I'm a bit swamped after the recruitment, so I'm going to get all the games back on track before I get you in there. I think it'll be really quick and easy to introduce you to the group. The questions I have can wait a little bit.

Also, you've likely noticed the links above the game.
Magnimar is just a map of the city. Since everyone is somewhat split up, it's not up to date.
Homebrew Rules are exactly that. They're my attempt to keep my rulings consistent.
The Story So Far hasn't been updated since... the end of book 1? It's long overdue. Feel free to peruse if you'd like, otherwise, I'd suggest you ask the characters when you meet them about their stories. Good roleplay.
Loot List is where I paste the loot, and it's up to you guys to figure out who takes what. Lately the group has been doling out shares, and I think a few of them are giving/loaning money to each other.

That's no squirrel! I see those tentacles.

Sqirk kree-aak kree skree-ak! Skree-ak, fih!*

Thanks. I've been taking a look over the links, and reading the last few pages of the gameplay to get a feel for the pacing and "vocals" of the group. I should be good to go whenever you're ready to put me in.

Man, I'm getting sick of this. I need a pet. Maybe I should ask if one of the whores would like me as a patron. Take her on the road with me when we go.

Don't eat the fish Cleo! You may go insane and we'll need to lop your head off. I speak from experience!

Kriii skrii iii siksik kreeak hiii. skuquii!

Well "The Gentleman" is a nickname. A moniker given because the places where I hide my face while slumming it and plotting my heists recognize I'm not one of them, that despite my skill I'm uppercrust.

You'll have to forgive the squirrel. He spent his formative years hanging out with a moose, who I think was a bad influence.

What's wrong with the fish?

Now I'm worried. Is that why Furnok rolled fort? Treasure!!!

Uh ohh... Did Aggrah help with the cooking? She may be thinking that Furnok eats a LOT and if he got a little sick... She'd get more food for a couple of days. Gobbos have outstanding appetites and Cleos cooking is delicious.

Welcome Andreste and Skrate!

Perhaps Furnok was making a joke about diseases and brothels, as that was a die two, not a die twenty.

No no, I'm sure that your fish are fine, mine weren't. Mine were born and grew in a lake of god blood and induced murderous rages. I REALLY should have paid attention to the description of the sellers looking like vagrants.

I passed the first check and got told it was the best fish ever. I ate another. I didn't pass and my party took me out.

I've rolled disease, drunkenness, pregnancy, and fatigue. I really took my research too far.

Funny that paladins get immunity to disease, but their lifestyle would normally likely include abstinence. I think a paladin of Chaldira would be an exception.

I'm starting to catch up, so it won't be much longer. Thanks for being patient with me.

And Aggah is not a cook.
Give it to us raw, and wriggling.

What do you mean by fellow and how do I differentiate them in speech?

Fellow =partner(accomplice)

Not fellow = client or possibly mark(potential victim)

Please ignore previous post, I can't edit it anymore and have changed my mind.

Okay no problem

Well done, Janis. You aced that encounter
