Valley of the Shrines (Inactive)

Game Master Grimmy

My poor Lawful Good Aasimar cleric. His potential companions: a tiefling thief, another thief and a half-orc. *Face palm* ;)

Don't forget jeb hardthorne the player pm me he is strongly interested

What I am not a thief...Oh um sorry I think you dropped your coin purse, and it looks like some unscrupulous citizen has stolen all its contents

You're not related to Tasslehoff Burrfoot by any chance, are you? :)

No kender!

#yerbanned

lol
No I have no clue who that is

dragonlance halfling/no fear/totally curious/kleptomaniac hobbit = kender.

Good luck with this game. See you later.

I'll open a discussion thread in the morning for those already accepted to start figuring out how such an unlikely band is formed!

I won't announce any new party members today but I'm still interested to see who else is a weekend warrior.

lol

No I have no clue who that is

Well, I feel about 1000 years old right about now... :p

Tasslehoff, Tas for short, was a kender (bascically halflings) in a series of novels and AD&D modules called "Dragon Lance" published in the late 1980's - early 1990's. They were quite popular among gamers.

Tas had a habit of stealing people's stuff (even people in his own group) but pretending that they had merely dropped the item and he had kindly picked it up and "kept it safe" for them.

In character out of character I do know who it is

Red the Dragonlance books, The ar of the Twins and the War of Souls oh and the chaos world

Priscilla already IC! Right on!

Loved Dragonlance novels, hated the era of gaming the adventures ushered in. Made railroading the norm.

I'm sorry to do this to you again, Priscilla, but can you explain your hit points and skill points? It looks like you may have counted your Favored class bonus for both hit points AND additional skill ranks.

You've got 17 hp listed with a 12 CON. You got 8 hp for 1st level rogue and then rolled a 5 for 2nd level. That would be 13. If you add 1 per level for CON that would be 15. That would mean that you added 1 per level for favored class. That's fine...but...

You've got 22 skill ranks listed with a 14 INT. As a 2nd level rogue you get 8 per level, so that's 16 for rogue plus another 2 per level for your INT bonus for a total of 20. So, it looks like you added you counted your favored class for your skill ranks as well.

Is there something that I am missing that could explain these numbers other than what I just proposed?

Guys no one get mad at logan please, he does this for me as a favor.

I never played any of the Dragon Lance modules. I loved the early books written by Weis/Hickman but when everyone began writing DL books the mythos got a little muddled IMO. The later books of Weis/Hickman were a little lacking as well.

Yes.....

Bad Math

Yeah one of those doing multiple things and my math was off, but its easy to fix! hp 14 20 skill points no prob

I only read the first trilogy. autumn/winter/summer whatever.

hp16 forgot the con bonus, but fixed :)

I'd really like to give this a try. I'm an experienced player, but completely new to PbP. I have a half-orc druid named Willow that I can bring to the table, but I would ask you for a little patience if I don't completely understand the gaming medium at first.

That being said, I absolutely love FGG's products, and would love to be able to game in them. Please let me know if I can be a part of this campaign.

I'm new to PbP too so no problem there.

I'm looking for another divine character, either a paladin, cleric or inquisitor of Muir.

The publisher recomends it for the adventure.

I would also love to see an eldritch knight for purely personal reasons, I just haven't seen a single one since magus came out.

I'm hoping for people who are really going to get into this campaign.

People who can't find a home group to play with, people who love pathfinder crunch but long for old-school vibes.

Someone who will really appreciate the game.

*What is your posting availability like? What do you like in terms of pace for PbP?
I generally check at least a few times a day and if there's something new to post about, I'll post. But at least once a day.

*How familiar are you with the setting? Have you run or played in Necromancer/FGG modules before?
Honestly, I know nothing of the setting or of Necromancer/FFG products.

*How many PbP do you currently participate in? Player or GM?
Currently I'm just in 1 PbP. And I am a player.

*What does "Old School" mean to you?
Simple and Classic. The same that most people would describe D&D.

*Would you have still been interested in this campaign if it was CRB only? Why or why not? (just curious really.)
Yes. There's something to the core game itself that feels enough. Especially for the Pathfinder rules. The more source material available, the more I think players feel like, "Did I miss something? Is there something better that I don't know about?" CRB eliminates that anxiety.

Ahh the Eldritch Knight, i was actually thinking about playing an archer eldritch knight in a different campaign, the build inhad planned was way off the beaten path though. Not sure if it wouldve worked well.

Alright looks like we have an archer.

Yay an Archer!

Reminder to pick up paint and draw targets on the enemy all ninja style

hp16 forgot the con bonus, but fixed :)

Actually, you're HP should be 15.

1st level: 8 for max rogue hp +1 for con bonus = 9 at first level
2nd level: you rolled a 5 for hp +1 for con bonus = 6 at second level

9+6 = 15

Were you talking about me being an archer, or was there someone else I missed? xP

Grimmy, I was considering taking a few levels of Paladin for Valerius. Would that fit the bill or would you prefer to have two divine characters, one of Thyr and one of Muir? If I want to do the multi-class cleric/paladin thing, should I change Val's deity to Muir (which would, unfortunately, deprive him of the Healing domain as it is not on Muir's list)?

I think Grimmy was referring to Tim Frie/Jeb Hardthorne who is playing a Fighter with the Archer archetype.

Ahhh I figured I missed something

You can multi-class Paladin down the road just fine without changing deities. I still kind of want one more divine character devoted to one of the sibling deities Thyr and Muir in case you withdraw later :p

Also the module recommends an extra for balance. Lots of undead, lots of healing and condition removal needed, lots of situations that leave you stumped without just the right divine spell slotted.

1. Valerius Brightshield - Cleric of Thyr
2. Lucia Moonshadow - Rog/Wiz
3. Priscilla Springheel- Halfling Rogue
4. Jeb Hardthorne - Archer
5. ?
6. ?

Looks like only two seats left, I may open a seventh.

I didn't mean to do so much recruiting over the weekend but I got good submissions and the fact they were active in the thread on the weekend is a good sign for commitment/level of participation.

Can't wait grimmy! Let me know if you need a spot filled in any other campaign you run as well, I've got builds ready to fit any role and I'm dying to play them!

I only run this one mega-campaign and it's one PC/player.

Discussion thread open for Priscilla, Lucia, Valerius, Jeb.

Please check in.

Can't believe no inquisitor submissions?

Ironically, that is what I have been working on, just had a busy weekend and haven't finished. I could fit it in with Muir if need be.

That would be mint.

Still looking for an EK! I'm going to offer some enticement after I make sure it doesn't rock the boat with the existing cast.

I'll give you an Eldritch Knight if you let me play a white-haired witch as the base class... :p

You're already a player dufus.

Ok I have to post this...

Lucia, your avatar picture is the same one that my character in another game is almost in love with. (except for the fact that my character is a boy, and she is not into boys...)

Does anyone know who the artist is on Lucia's avatar? It looks like Kerem Beyit.

I'm going to bow out of this game.

Good luck everyone and have a great time.

:(

LOGAN PLEASE COME BACK!! :( No Drow!

Not again man, we totally need to get you into this crazy campaign somewhere!

Tell him!

B-b-b-but he could grapple with his hair!

What the witch? It's only on pc/player Taco.

Ooo Why Logan Why

I didn't see my name on the most recent roster...what do I need to do to get included? I have my character ready, do I need to send a copy?

Please help, I want to play in this campaign, but don't know what the next step is.

Thanks!
