Winter is Coming

Game Master Patrick Curtin

Woody! You still in bro?

Any way cold iron sling bullets could be forged into cold iron arrowheads?

You know what? Why don't we just retcon them as arrowheads. Idk why the AP gives only sling bullets. I had to improvise the dagger, I figured someone could use it :/

I'm taking my son back to college in Minnesota leaving Friday and returning Sunday. Feel free to post Jeydavu's actions while I am away to keep things moving along.

I'm going to have to also post up that through Labor Day I will be flat out working. I'll try and update, but I need to see if Woody is onboard. I'll get things rolling hopefully next week.

Don't sweat it. Next week is fine with me. Enjoy your holiday as much as you can while working.

Thanks Tordek! Enjoy you time with your son! As much as college move-in day can be enjoyed! Lol

Good to know. I'll be out of town Friday through Monday.

Ok. Got the weekend put in the rear view. I'll be working on getting things moving tonight and tomorrow

Back in town.

Just a second to say sorry again. I thought this week would be easier. I thought wrong. I WILL find some time to write the next scene if it kills me!

No worries, just chillin' over here until you're ready.

Oh and Woody's out. We might need to find a replacement if anyone knows anyone

I'll ask around.

I think I just found a guy.

Hi, I'm a guy.

What's the group currently look like? I don't have anything particular in mind yet, and can probably fill a gap if needed.

Looks like everyone's still 1st level? I see max starting hp and gold--what's your preference for ability generation?

Sorry. It's been a rough couple of days. Vil-Hatarn welcome. Make up a character and I'll be posting if I ever get a second to get things together.

Oh V-H the characters were a 25 pt buy

I swear I am never going to start a PbP right before the summer season :/. Good news is I will have a bit more free time soon, so stay tuned

Awesome, I should have something by tomorrow.

Welcome Vil.

Here is the party so far:

Flash - Ecaterina Tredyakovskaya - Winter Witch (arcane caster)
CH - Gaelin Northvein - Barbarian (definitely melee)
Shiny - Tama, Moon's Daughter - Paladin (non-melee)
Tordek - Jeydavu of Hellirinn - Arctic Druid (melee focused)

If Patrick's wife ends up joining us she is a rogue.

I'll just keep Jeydavu on ice until your ready.

(We need to start soon, I'm running out of cold related jokes already.)

I'm leaning towards a half-elf witch hunter monk. Wishing the half-elf alternate racial traits were a little more flexible, I'd really like to take both Integrated and Drow Magic (he was born to human parents via unknown but almost certainly witchery-related means, so I think the spells are fitting). Any chance I could trade out elven immunities, adaptability, and multitalented to take those two traits? If you'd rather I stick to RAW, that's fine too, I'll figure something out :)

Ice to see you Vil! :P

My old GM joins the fray as a fellow player... This could be very, very interesting.

Rolling for vigilante witch hunter trait: 1d4 ⇒ 4

I am very rules flexible. Do what you want character-wise within reason

Here he is. I'm thinking perhaps he had stepped out when the party visited the apothecary, and hearing about their plan he decides to catch up and go with them?

That sounds good. That way the first encounter won't be as dangerous. Craig's character is still awaiting an entrance

Everyone: I know you've put up with a lot if delays, but I am hopeful to get back on track this weekend. Thank you all for being so patient.

Great. Do you want to do the introduction, or should I go ahead and post?

Yeah, I'm coming. :D

As soon as I wanted to get set back up, my dog passed away. Sorry folks, I am trying, honest. =(

I figured it was a tough weekend. Hope you are doing ok. Take your time.

This ^

No rush, Patrick.

No worries, I know that's tough. We'll still be here when you're ready :)

Guys, a word, and another apology.

I have been flat out since Memorial Day, and I don't honestly know if I can carve the time out to game right now. I'd like to get this game moving, but it seems every time I think I will have a bit of quality gaming time something else pops up.

I have a little time to breathe coming up (I hope!!) so hang in there and hopefully we'll get things rolling.

Again, sorry about all the delays

No worries. I'm still very much in if we get going again though!

Same here. I don't mind waiting.

Yeah no problem, I'm already waiting so it's no bother for me. :)

Thanks guys. I know how frustrating it can be when a game grinds to a halt. I will be picking at this as I can thru the week, and hopefully we can get the initial encounter underway

Hello folks:

as I am sure you are well aware, I didn't get back to this. This month has been rather bad, and it culminated with me leaving my job. On the plus side I have some time off. I am going to forward this game, but I am well aware it has idled for quite some time. That is my fault, mea culpa, and if anyone wants to drop I can certainly understand.

With my new job I believe (hope) there will be greater opportunities for me to game. I (once again) hope that going towards year's end I will be able to keep up better.

This has been an incredibly rough year for you, Patrick. I hope things are looking up.

Things are. One more big hump to get over, and it should be smooth sailing. Hopefully.

Sorry to hear you've been having a hard time--hope things improve with the new job! I'm still ready and willing to play.

Cool Vil. If you want I'll just have you riding up at the same time. That way we can get you all together.

Sounds good!

Too bad paladins don't get Lay On Hands until second level...

Jeydavu may have some healing ability.

I would've had better odds with a full healer's kit...unfortunately, the monk starting gold didn't really allow for that.

This is why we adventure, lol

OOOOOOOOOOO... Do I sense some tension in the ranks?
