Xaaon's Curse of the Crimson Throne

Game Master Xaaon of Xen'Drik

I hope I got the right amount of butch.

I finished my purchases.

Instead of buying a magic weapon I went with a wand of magic weapon...

Hey, Donagar what's your height so I can make the group render.

I think about 4'2

I was hoping my profile pic and stone-plate armor would show up!

I can't do a braided Beard, I'll then get you the same armour as sgt. Drakus.

Been following the game and sad to see it go. great bunch of characters.

So those of us left behind, what do we do?

We could do a quick evaluation of where we are in the game, how we like our characters and anything we might want to change, then we could recruit for a replacement DM.

I think this group should have plenty of charisma, and alot to offer to attract a DM.

I feel like we could all offer the new DM first crack (dibs) as a replacement player in any of our PBP games would certainly be too sweet of a deal to pass up.

Supply and demand at work.

Plus I could actually see who all is running what.
So we could sumarize the title of the game, when it started and where it is now, even games that sucessfully concluded.

That way the prospective DM could see exactly who we are and what we have to offer.

I figure we're about 1/3 to 1/2 way through the Second Book.

A new GM might have different character requirements from our current builds.

I like the Idea of the Supply and Demand part.

I currently am GMing 3 games;
Demon Within
Kingmaker
Jade Regent

Finished:
Hangman's Noose
Hollow's Last Hope

Dropped (Due to various things)
Over 5

Waiting on input from fellow players,

as I may consider temporarily being GM while we recruit a new one.

Oh, didn't realize there was a request for input.

If we find a replacement, I'd rather there not be a temp in the interim, as it just means GM hopping and can lead to more confusion.

As for the games I run here (still not sure the relevance):
Shattered Star
Skull & Shackles
Curse of the Crimson Throne (they are almost caught up to where we are)

For an idea of me as a player, I am in:
Shattered Star (two of them, one decent paced, and one slow one)
Wrath of the Righteous (two of them, both moderate paced)
Skull & Shackles
RotRL (and run one Tabletop for my wife and kids)
Carrion Crown (and run one Tabletop for my gaming group)
Legacy of Fire
and a 4E Dark Sun game

If you just go through my profiles you can see many of these.

I would also vote to recruit a permanent DM.

I run here:
Savage Tide
Second Darkness
Carrion Crown
Star Wars: League of Shadows

I play in a whole bunch you can find through my profile.

So it looks like we all agree to recruit a new GM.

The next question is what will be the next step?

Ask if someone would GM from one of the games we are currently in or GMing,
or
Put up a recruitment thread.

Maybe a player from an ongoing game might be an idea.

I have some solid players who are going through Shackled City with me, ...

Play in several run several.....

So far my top two are.
PF Shackled City SCAP, 3,900+ posts, started Sept 2010
Ashardaldon Series - Unoptimized KK, 2,500+posts, started June 2011

No bites yet on a DM from my current PCs.....

....I will update when/if I strike out.

Ok so I got nothing.

I'll ping the game's I DM at the moment, and the one's I'm playing in.

So far, no bites yet.
Though I've gotten some nibbles.

Nope, no luck

If you wish to make renders like the one's I've done
Daz has 70% off "Genesis" Pro bundles for a limited time.
One's that says Genesis or have the number 5 in it.

So do we start the GM recruitment?

So do we start the GM recruitment?

That seems to be the case.

Should I setup the recruitment thread?

Let's make sure everybody is still lurking.

Still here!

And I hope Gregor is still here...

Let's put the recruitment thread up on Sunday night/Monday morning.

Good call....

Still here, just been busy with school and work.

Link to GM recruitment thread

We got a nibble from GM Mug.

So opinions of the GM who is in the Recruitment thread and how fast could you post?

The GM is asking a question about the group please respond to it.

A new GM has appeared....
Opinions?

Looks good so far. A little green, but that will wear off.

I don't know if anyone noticed, but the new recruit GM had ended with a question. I have no problem with this new guy.

A DM is better than no DM, in almost any scenario! ; )

I have no problem with the new GM.

Hi

I'm slightly ahead of schedule (it won't last!) so I'm posting now.

I've informed Paizo of the take-over (as required, yes I'm lawful); if they move the thread or provide a new link I will post it here.

Otherwise, we keep using this thread until anything changes.

Does anyone know if shields are useable underwater? I've looked through my Pathfinder and 3.5 sourcebooks, but even the online pdf doesn't provide a ruling.

I don't see why not - they would essentially work the same way as above-ground (that is, only giving you protection from attacks to your front, not from behind or above). I'm going to rule that it's ok, and that you're strong enough to swim with it without having to worry about it slowing you down.

I don't want to leave you entirely defenceless :)

Is it safe to assume my metal armor cuases me no issues? I have mithril chain shirt (weighs less than leather, has no armor check penalty, and has a +6 max dex).

Donagar's plan is to go in like a stone and if he has to cast fly and engage in battle that way.

Unfortunately I only have one casting prepared, but hide behind the stone clad dwarf, might be a worthwhile strategy for everyone else.

I'm currently wearing a mithral Chain as well.

Donagar

Gregor and Mai

Yep. Or walk out as the case might be.

I suppose if all else fails, you can rest underwater for a day and regain your domain spells... :)
