At present I'm waiting on a response from Xanos on his sheet, as well as Gwyndolin to make her adjustments so that I can review them. Also I'm off this weekend (yay!) and will try to get it started (I've already scripted the initial posting, just waiting on crunch review to post it).
My little sister just had her second kid this week...
Wow! She delivered two kids in one week, now THAT is fertility. :P

Fan-stinkin-tastic! I can't wait to play!
Having to reinstall my OS today. Posting from phone.
Channel- thanks for the catch. Edited.
Having trouble picking a feat. Would you allow me to take Skeleton Summoner, or is that too combat oriented?
Opposed Schools are Illusion and Evocation. Added to Spellbook section.
The bolded spells are Necromantic, and have a higher DC.
Cantrips Added.
I was thinking that since we'd talked about my character not having been a Wizard originally that he had managed to somehow scape together a spellbook while in prison. He might only have a couple spells in a makeshift "book" written out on the inside of his prison garb or something. I don't mind the limitation since it fits with the backstory, but it would mean that he'd been in prison longer than everyone else.
Sorry for the hold up. I'll fix it later tonight after i get back from me RL game.
Actually, on that spellbook. Don't know what I was thinking but it's supposed to be no spellbook to start (Brain had been worked overtime, needed a relaxing day at work). How does this sound? The spells you start with are remnants of your former power? That will get past the prison break part.
Not sure how much you know about this AP overall, but unless you guys doe something REALLY crazy, there should be plenty of story-based opportunity to get you a spellbook by the time it will matter. Should be plenty able to get the transition from innate power to wizardly skill in that time. You can keep the spellbook there as well, it'll just give me a guide for then. Does that sound good?
Also if something strange does happen, the GM will provide!
Fixed.

All right, looks like everything is in order, I'll start by getting the initial post up. Should be just a few minutes.
Got it. I think I'm all ready to go.
Kalina, I just saw what you did with your Class tab. That's g%%~!!n brilliant and I'm stealing it. Very cool.
Sweet. Pass it along - I stole it from a couple PbPs I was watching...
I realized I kinda moved through pretty quickly for a PBP. Part excited about new campaign, part getting the group together. About to leave for abit (brother's in town, and my Table-top game). Be back in about, oh say 10-12 hours. Feel free to talk, plan, plot, scheme during that time.
Appreciate the notice - thanks! Have a good game.
I'll never complain about a PbP moving along! Glad to see you're as enthusiastic as we are....
I'm really enjoying this so far. Don't worry about rushing things on my account. I'm content to watch as long as I need to.
Like the new profile pic, Xanos!
And I second the "just glad to have an enthusiastic DM" sentiment! :)
Thanks. I thought it fit nicely with his current state. His concept has evolved quite a bit from my original premise, so now I'm not sure what I'm going to change it to once I get things like clothes.
Guess we'll see if I manage to survive the breakout first. Wizards are squishy.
About to head to work. I'll be back in 9-10 hours. I can sometimes post from there, and will try to answer any questions you have.
So, is everyone else in the game evening posters? or is this just a slow day?
When not slammed with work or other stuff, I'll post during the days and later at night in PST land.
Generally, yes. I work swing shift and do most of my posting then. Of course, time zone differences can make "evening" a relative term.
Highly dependent on work. Usually I can post pretty frequently during daytime. Alas, today was not such a day...
Variable. I work a job that's 50/50 desk vs. observation, with a flexible schedule (usually 2nd shift Central Time). Even days off though it gets hectic.
Evening mainly. I do post during the day sometimes.
Sheesh. I checked in six hours ago and the shackles were just coming off. I get back and all hell's breaking loose.
Note taken. :)
Give us a couple of rounds... we'll have you right out. :)
Don't worry about me. I'm still effective from behind bars, shackled and gagged. :)
I'm half-expecting for the rest of us to find the dwarf choking on his own tongue when we get over there!
Just a heads up I'll be in a class today so won't be able to post for the next 8-10 hours.
Eh, not really. The beard got in the way.
I do like the "strong, silent, and homicidal" vibe coming off Xanos. :)
Xanos isn't actually homicidal. He's just life-ambivalent.
Awww... don't ruin the romance with reality. ;D
Dammo, Gwyn. I wish you got some better rolls on the crit damage!
I was hoping you'd drop the dwarf in one hit - I guess the beard got in the way of a clean throat slice.
nonlethal Damage 1d8 + 6 + 2 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 6 + 2 + 3 = 18; favored enemy, power attack.
O.O That is some ferocious damage!
Not playin' around! >:D
Though favored enemy + power attack does help.. ya know... a little.
Should CAin have taken a -4 penalty to that attack roll, btw?
It depends on whether the manacles 'normally' do lethal or non-lethal damage. I don't think improvised weapon are automatically one way or the other. I can see a reasonable argument either way so you'll have to wait on Mark's judgment for that... unless I'm missing something in the rules.
Yah, that's why i'm unsure. I can wait for Mark, I guess. ;D
I checked through the rules briefly and I don't see anything that says improvised weapons 'default' to lethal or non-lethal. The rule is assign damage based on its closest equivalent weapon but there is no mention otherwise. Personally, I'd think it would depend on the improvised weapon. A salad fork is 'closest' to an Emei Piercer but I'm hard-pressed to believe the salad fork could do a 1d3 lethal. :) But YMMV.
Yah, if the manacles are metal, then i'm inclined to think they'd take the -4 penalty to deal non-lethal damage with them. If they have some kind of leather lining or cuffs, it could go either way.
Yeah, they are pretty stinking solid presumably.
Gwyn and her lockpicks didn't seem to think so. :)
Hell yeah... high 5 to Sista Picks!
Thank you, thank you. I just hope Dwarfy McBeard doesn't clock me too hard.
Well, Kalina still has a shot at him before he can retaliate.
Dwarfy is a wuss if he holds a little stab in the carotid against you. Talk about carrying a grudge. :)
Besides, if this works out right, he'll have Kalina and Cain to worry about in addition to you.
True, but my characters tend to have abysmal luck. Some of it's self inflicted (5th level rogue vs. 10th level fighter), but most of it's not (getting mauled by a baby snow leopard because I'm the smallest in the party). We'll see, hopefully I knocked him down to half, or close to it. otherwise, *shudder*.
I can see it now...
The dwarf whistles and his thief-hating, 10th level, Snow Leopard animal companion named 'Mr. Yum Yums' enters the cell and eyes Gwyn like she is made of steak...
