STRANGE AEONS (Inactive)

Game Master Daniel Penfold 351

Discussion page

I will be using the sanity rules as per Horror Adventures when appropriate.

So am ready to start whenever people are ready- just let me know.

Dotting in. Will get to making the character tomorrow. :)

Dotting here :) like I said, I’ll have the character ready this Wednesday. I’ll build something to help the party balance.

Thanks again for hosting, GM!

So we have a Wizard, an Arcane Duellist and a Fighter. I think we need something clerical... :)

Ok so just wanted to give a brief rundown of how I'll be running:

Firstly for combat i will roll initiative for everyone and then publish the initiative order for each combat. It is Ok if you say what your character wants to do out of order (for the most part) - appreciate from time/life perspective that sometimes people post when they can. I will deal with the actions as they go in the initiative order.

Secondly I will roll passive skill checks e.g. Perception or Knowledge skills. If you want to recheck things yourself this is fine.

I will add a treasure list and campaign specific treasures where appropriate as well as maps.

Finally, I live in the UK, as such I will be posting probably early in the morning and late in the evening (my time). You may find that due to time differences I will be posting a lot/little. What I will say is that I don't want to rush you guys through things so I will try not to direct play too much. My basic rule of thumb will be to go with what the majority decision is, but I will allow everyone to say what they want to do. Very occasionally this may be superseded by the story but I'll try not to do this too often. If I'm ever going too fast/too slow with posting please let me know and I'll see what I can do.

Think that's about it for now but any questions please ask.

I might build a cleric, druid, warpriest, oracle... something on these lines.

Btw sorry for asking but... what the deuce is a Yaddithian? Is this Paizo at all, hehe? Never heard of it and I have almost all official material.

Bestiary 6! Had to dig! Very thematic though, nice job :)

I came across it a while ago and thought 'the only place I'll ever get to do this is Strange Aeons'. So here Akukho and I are! :D His Cosmic Mind is going to be a very large and very empty place right now...

Hey guys! Chess here. I'll evolve this character towards getting more lay on hands and specialize in channels and support. He's a "Paladin of Hope", per se. By level 4 and on we can invest on some wands to help with the cures if he falls short on the matter, but I believe we should be okay. The invigorator archetype is from the Healer's book, and should help us with mitigation. Plus, his Aura of Courage is always valuable :)

Looks like we're all ready to go so I'll make a start.

Time for a shameless advert - I have my own Youtube channel Despicable Vole where among other things I play through Pathfinder campaigns. Please check it out and if you are interested subscribe.

Hi all,

I am now on holiday for a week. I will try and post as/when I can but it may be sporadic.

Dan

Whoa, missed this starting up. I will get my profile and stuff set up real quick.

Hey guys, the GM advised me the group is looking for a healer. Other than a character that can heal, any requests for other roles that need help? Looks like some ranged attacks could be useful. How about skills?

Hey Gerald! Thanks for showing up. We do have a bard, so we might be good on the skills matter (although the Arcane Duelist loses some of the skill tools).

Now, on the healing matter, I can provide off-heals here and there (next level, and then a little more some levels later) so I'd say we do need a good main healer but the character could and should be doing more, even for a matter of fun.

Your idea of ranged attacks (especially physical I'd say) is good. We have a wizard, so we might be fine on the arcane side and probably control (I don't think our wizard is a blaster at all).

The one thing I don't know if any of us can do is trapfinding. I don't know if it's on anyone's plans either. However, I wouldn't recommend you go this route.

Maybe an life oracle with a bow of sorts, a cleric or an channeling-capable inquisitor with crossbows? I don't know. Just throwing ideas. So many possibilities in Pathfinder! :) It doesn't even need to be truly divine.

Since both the Paladin and cleric can heal a little, I think I might go with a bow wielding inquisitor. I can help with healing, and I might splash a level of rogue at two so I can get trapfinding for the crew. Assuming I was to live that long of course!

What cleric? We don't have any. Anyway, if your inquisitor can channel at some point, I think it's an excellent option :)

I’m sorry...I meant Paladin and bard, not Paladin and cleric. I can’t channel, but I’m taking the healing domain, so my healing spells will be empowered in not too many levels.

I heard there is a feat that can super charge your heal skill so Deadly Wounds takes less time and heals more

Trevor will be doing some self-healing with Healing Reserve from Mutation Warrior archetype.

Hey guys! Not sure if anyone is up for some pirating on the Shackles, but there's an open recruitment collecting applications for Skull & Shackles and I'm helping the GM :)

Will this character do? Ranger inquisitor. I’ll be sure he takes a healing spell every level so he can do a good bit of bandaging the group up, with some help from the rest of the party.

Sounds good to me, I will say you can drop right into the game, your character is in one of the other cells, again with no memory of who he is or how he got there.

Atajay I have put you into the initiative order- seems a good place to introduce you.

Do we still have our weapons, and were those rounds of bardic performance from earlier actually used up, or do they return like the HP?

You don't have your weapons. Basic performance rounds reset same as hp.

Before I jump in, do we have any gear whatsoever for this initial combat?

No gear at the moment.

Interactive map just uploaded, I've put your tokens where the chute comes out on this level.

This is so strange! What are these words above me? 'Strange Aeons? There are tentacles around the edges of my vision!

Go ahead and look! What is the worst that could happen?

"As you prod the blanket 2 giant centipedes come forth - you all get an attack of opportunity."

What provoked an AoO here? Or, did you mean we get a surprise round?

Sorry yes surprise round.

Its been a long day!

Roast those bugs up! Makes a nice snack

lantern, a hammer, five winter blankets, 10 feet of chain, a set of manacles and a tarnished silver necklace worth 5gp.

Is anyone tracking the loot we find? Like in an official document?

Treasure list now shareable so you can edut.

Hey guys! Sorry I’m a little slow this week. I have intense activities at work until Thursday so it’s affecting my posting capabilities. I’ll normalize soon! Thanks for the understanding ;)

Hey Everyone, I'm away for the next twelve days in Florida - going to Disney World for the first time!

I won't be able to check my games while I'm away so I'm on pause until the 10th (or possibly the 11th if I'm too jet-lagged!).

Please feel free to bot me as the situation requires! :)

No problem, enjoy.

If anyone is interested I am trying to start a Dr Who RPG game, let me know if you're interested.

Do we assume I was following along quietly or do I need to go out and catch up?

Yeah that's fine akhuko

Hey team! Sorry about the lack of updates - Paizo’s outage unfortunately was combined with some issues here at work and I’m having to put out some fires. I should go back to normal posting next week. Please feel free to bot me!

Hi all,

Due to the site issues I am a bit behind, will try to catch up as quick as I can.

Hi all, still having issues posting, will try to catch up when I can.

Test test

First luck I've had here for some time...
