I've really liked the thread. A lot of different personalities and players. Makes a great side story and character bonding for the real campaign. Good luck to all, it's been fun reading all your backgrounds and seeing how we all interact. Fortunately, Malak didn't didn't have to kill anybody for cheating him out of money. Haha!
An' here I were lookin' forwards ta' gettin' some extra shine, ta' boot. *Pouts a little*
Very much cheers and best wishes to al! (^_^)
Honestly, even if we don't all make it in, I'd have real interest in running the game too, just so we don't lose such awesome characters to the briny deep.
With only 4 spots, my work is cut out for me. Been looking at it all night and conversing with the two players I have.
Yes, there are too many invested PC's to let everyone go. If I had the AP, I'd be tempted to run it, but I would dearly love to play in it.
Good luck to everyone!
It's been a blast watching things play out in the Tavern.
Good luck to everybody! I know I'm kinda jumping in at the last minute with my submission of Ajani, so I hope I get the chance to play in the discussion thread a bit!

Without a doubt I think some of these characters are the most intriguing and genuine. A ship doctor looking for excitement, a barbarian cannibal, a sea elf, a monkey that strangely resembles Luffy from one piece in background and personality, and so many druids. Makes me feel like Malak is just a raging pirate, wanton revenge, with nothing but the sea in his blood. Oh wait, he is.
*Bounces up and down in excitement*
Bestest of luck every one! (^_^)
*Me thinks the DM could squeeze in a extra couple of characters if they rilly, rilly tried.*
*Tries to look thinner, so as not to take up as much space.....*(>_>)
Heh. Strangely enough, Malak, I only became aware of the connection to Monkey D. Luffy after I created the character. Granted, I made some modifications to the character to strengthen those connections, because it amused me, but Ajani has always been a Vanaran druid who was rescued and inspired by a benevolent pirate.

Actually, taking on extras would be difficult. I'm running this for my tabletop group of eight, and it's really stretching the capacity of the adventure to handle. I've had to modify a number of the encounters to adapt.
Personally, I fear for my acceptance. Among such luminaries as are assembled here, Isabella just doesn't stand out. I could hardly blame the GM if he chose more flamboyant characters than her.
In any case, good luck to all.
This is my 5th attempt. I have enjoyed running it so much that I feel it would be a blast to play.
*HUGZ Isabella*
Hey! Dun't be down! (^_^)
I like Isabella. And not only because she doesn't think Nissa is a thug (or thuggee).
But personally I'm worried because I think that it is unlikely that Nissa and Sunny would both be chosen. Why did I bond with the one other person who is doing my class!? :-p
***And we are now at the end of recruiting. Final party mix will go up during the day tomorrow and I will start the post thread no later than Monday.**
Alright, update time! One of the two spots that I was holding decided that he would drop so that I could let more people in, giving one extra spot (and helping me make my decision).
Maera- Undine Watersinger Bard- Easy decision, this one was in before I ever made a post. Real life player of my tabletop game.
Malak Wavecrasher- Half-Orc Sea Reaver Barbarian- I really this character and I liked him in another recruiting thread, so he had a head start once I saw him app.
Aramis Steele- Human Musket Master Gunslinger- Once I read this character, I knew she was going to be on my boat.
Diabolito Stormbeard- Dwarf Shark Shaman Druid- I liked Diabolito in another thread too, but he was a barbarian at the time. When he switched to a hungry shark, I was sold.
Nissa Alami- Human Bladebound Kensai Magus- Much like Aramis, I read the fluff and nothing else mattered. This character won me over immediately.
Ossok the Scarred- Half-Orc Scarred Witch Doctor- I like this character a great deal and I think it will be fun to have them on board.
"Doc" Williams- Human Everysort of Alchemist- I love the concept and for the longest time I didn't think I would have this character on board. I still think I'm crazy, but I'm going with it anyway.
Alternates:
Sasha Killigrew- Half-Elf Cleric of Besmara & Zaketta Flynn- Human Cleric of Besmara- Zaketta and Sasha presented a huge challenge for me because I wanted to have one of them in the party and I couldn't decide. I liked the both for VERY different reasons and I have waffled and each of you were in one of the drafts, but I couldn't decide which one to pick and then "Doc" came in and I started looking at a different way to build the group. I'm still not sure I'm happy without having a cleric, but I'm going to go with.
David Longstar- Gnome Rogue & Isabella D'Rosini- Half-Elf Pirate Rogue- Much like the clerics above, I had a hard time with the decision not to include the both of you. Also, like them, at some point each of you was in the draft of the group, but I could not bring myself to pick one over the other. I love the exuberance of David and the passion of Isabella and I wish they could both come on board, but I couldn't decide and rogue didn't feel like a required class.
To everyone else, I'm glad I got to read your submissions and really enjoyed the interactions in the tavern, but at this point, recruiting is closed, and the tavern will be shortly.
Congrates to the ones chosen, perhaps I will see the rest of you on the water somewhere else.
Congrats to the chosen! I'm just sorry I didn't get in any earlier. Have fun everybody!
Good luck to those of you who got in, have fun!
Well it seems like one of the games I was going to run poofed so I might be able to run this AP if I can't get in at all. I'm missing the 5th one though so I will have to wing that one.
If you guys are interested in a slightly modified version of the AP I might be able to run it. Anybody interested? Should I make a thread?
I would be :D
"I will not forget you Sunny; come rescue me from the pirates!" ;-)
Thanks for a fun time in the tavern guys!
Hope everyone has fun
Gameplay thread is opened. Please dot and I'll post lots of stuff tonight, perhaps even the actual start.
Finally! Not a bridesmaid! I've never played a shark Druid, so this is going to be odd and interesting. Blood! Oh wait....Booty! Oh wait....GOOOOOOOOOOOOOLD! Much better.
Good luck mateys toss one back fer ole Lux.
Thanks for picking Aramis, GM. I have a couple of questions for you, but the biggest is thus: can she use the gunsmithing feat and craft (alchemy) to make her own starting ammo? Or shouldn't I worry about it, considering the circumstances under which the campaign begins?
Absolutely...once you reacquire your father's gun and ammo, you won't have a lot of opportunities to get ammo for a little bit, so you should have as much as possible.
EVERYTHING is a dwarven drinking song. Except for songs about orc on gob-gob love. Those are just right out.
Gold gold gold gold gold gold gold silver...bad line...gold gold gold gold gold
Silver and gold, silver and gold! I don't remember the rest of the words....!
Has anyone here listened to Alestorm? They have some songs that would be all too appropriate for this campaign.
Thanks for the consideration! I had a lot of fun with my (admittedly limited) rp in the main thread! Kudos to the accepted folks!
The seas area tumultuous place with a great deal of problems. As such, this game has been going for over a year and we are in need of refilling our crew.
I am looking for 2-3 new players to fill the rest of the crew for this Skulls & Shackles group.
The group just finished book 1 and are level 4. I will want backstory, but character creation rules haven't changed from the first post in this (though newer books are going to be allowed, as well!)
That being said, let the games begin and lets put new wind in the sails!
(YES to the ACG, btw)
Including stuff from the new player's companion? Specifically the Dragon Skald.
PS. how much gold?
Okay let us try this.
Andrea is a neutral(yep) priestess of Urgathoa who has been sent on a mission to establish a toe/foothold in the Shackles for her faith. For this purpose, she is not to spread undead or disease, preach to the masses or engage in atrocity but hopefully act as a gateway for others to arrive and settle.
Andrea poses as a priestess of Pharesma who handles aiding the group with spells and harming foes with negative channeling.
Will get a write-up done.
The group has not earned much in the way of funds, so we'll say 1150g and I'll outfit accordingly. Send me a small wishlist and I'll give what I feel is appropriate!
Yes, I have Advanced Class Origins sitting next to me, so that is fine. Be forewarned that the current party make-up is as such: Shark Totem Druid, Gunslinger, Watersinger Bard. Access to a cleric is also available, as needed, and there MIGHT be a monk.
The Druid is a real surly fellow, by the way. Real pain in the arse, that one. ;)
Willing to consider this rogue cutpurse?
I'll be happy to level her and post a wish list if you feel she's a viable candidate.
Thanks!
I am willing to consider a rogue cutpurse!
Nah, it's the gunslinger you've gotta watch out for. She's a mad b#%$#, what with that temper and that itchy trigger finger. ;-)
Going to convert this into a sorcerer for consideration. I'll post again when I have her stats done.
How long will we have to put together a submission? I've got a concept, but it'll take a day or so to put together crunch and a reasonable backstory.
I guess that would make sense. I will give until the end of the week. I am on vacation for most of next week (STAYcation), so I would like to progress things well and introduce everyone by then.
Mata has got through the first book in another game before it died. I tried doing to background in a little different format. If you would like I can level him up to 4th but the background is the more important part in my opinion.
I'm finished with levelling Allie. I am compiling her wish list now.
Anything showing on her profile equipment list that I wish to keep, I will include on the wish list.
Allie's Wish List:
Quilted Cloth Armor, 100 gp
Poison Pill RIng, 25 gp
1 Dose of Indigo Dreams, 150 gp
2 Masterwork Daggers, 604 gp
2 Wrist Sheaths, 2 gp
Masterwork Thieves' Tools, 100 gp
Pickpocket's Outfit, 5 gp
2 Bags of Caltrops, 4 gp
Belt Pouch, 1 gp
Masterwork Snorkel, 5 gp
Glass Cutter, 5 gp
2 Packets of Flash Powder, 100 gp
1 Flask of Impact Foam, 25 gp
1 Smokestick, 20 gp
1 Vial of Alchemist's Kindness, 2 gp
2 Candlerods, 2 gp
Let me know if you have any concerns about the list.
Thanks!
