Sorry, I was exhausted last night. I should be able to get something up later today.
I was waiting to see what Zadok felt like doing.. but now I have my parents to entertain. Sorry.
Apologies, I've been having a busy time recently and my posting is kind of sporadic. I'm fine going to either of the other attack sites and investigating while we wait to finish exploring the hospital.
If you're fine going to either, choose one, and then post that you are going there!
Hey you two: Sorry, and I've already shared why in Discord but the next few days will involve periods of not being able to post while I'm sorting out my life. I know we're in a stall but I hope you guys will be ready to continue when I land and have figured things out.
Makes sense. Although, if you ever need to relax and feel like posting a funny scene somewhere within the city, I will definitely answer!
It's just a few days while I pack and fly and unpack.
I will post when I have the time to! Like, now.
Hey, can you guys get in there and comment on submissions, as you think is necessary?
Yeah, sure, I can do that
Will do!
You want comments on the completed or incomplete ones?
Hello newcomers! Welcome to the game!
Thanks! Excited to be here, I'll have my alias updated soon!
Greetings, greetings! :) I think there are a few tweaks I was thinking of to my build (mostly changing my mind on some items--I should definitely have a scroll of plane shift given the campaign's theme), but I'm mostly ready to go!
Welcome, welcome! It's great to have all of you :)
Howdy, glad to be here! I also dont have everything up on my alias yet but I should get there in the next day or two.
A pleasure to be playing with you all. I'll have my Alias updated with Crunch fairly soon.
Heheh, so funny to have completely non humanoid characters.
So, once you guys have updated your aliases, I'd like you to split into: A.) two pairs OR B.) A trio and a solo ; groups already know, respect, and have worked with each other in the past, and came to the adventure site together.
The party is currently in the City of Brass, trying to track down the suppliers for a group of djinni terrorists. There are a few leads, and after you're paired up I'll give you a few different choices of "introduction scene", based on where you'd like to be introduced.
I like that no one is an actual humanoid. Which...means we're all immune to Nymph blinding.
Just sayin'
I'm up for being in a duo, a trio, or going solo. Guns and revenge are good connection points between Eli and Lydia.
Good point, I had never noticed that blinding beauty only works on humanoids.
As Sir Crunchy is "transferring" from a boring Riftwarden office to an on-field assignment, he would be fine either going with a group or going alone.
Of course, a lone crab wandering the city of brass might be endangered by the various food vendors of the city looking to turn him into a succulent meal... Which would be fun to deal with in it's own way.

Well, the gassy jellyfish could always accom... no.....that wouldn't help much.
Terex would find you all fascinating and would love to travel with any of you. :D The City of Brass is a rather warm place--Terex can manage a few endure elements in a day, if that's a consideration for someone pairing up with him.
Oh, @GM: question on Terex's poison and SR, would they scale with his total hit dice or are they stuck with just his racial hit die?
I'm up for being in a duo, a trio, or going solo. Guns and revenge are good connection points between Eli and Lydia.
Yeah, we have a pretty natural connection I'd say. I also think Terex and I could have a fun relationship with how different we are. If Sir Crunchy has been in an office, I'm not sure I'd have had much potential for interaction with him, since it's sort of the last place I'd be. But yeah I'm also happy pairing up with anyone or being solo when we all meet.
So the crab, flying spaghetti monster, and colorful flying lizard are traveling down a street in the City of Brass.... Enter a bar and you're on your way to a funny joke!
Have a great game guys!
Terexaltherin's poison DC scales, since the DC is based on Hit Dice. However, SR is not based on hit dice, so it wouldn't scale.
You guys do actually need to be decisive for it to count, though.
I think my alias should be good, I'll just have to check some numbers when I get home from work (And have access to my rough draft notes)
As for meeting other characters, Sir Crunchy may have spent the last several years in an office, but that doesn't disclude him from forming a party with anyone else. After all, he could have received his new assignment with instructions to meet up with fellow riftwardens in advance.
"Sir Crunchy, you have been re-assigned: Please meet up with your party members in order to plane shift to the Plane of Fire, where you will receive further instructions in the City of Brass."
Or something along those lines, in any case.
Perhaps Terex with Sir Crunchy and then the other two together? Sound good?
I've got no problems with that
Also, I've noticed that Terex has also had a trip to the plane of air- could be an interesting similarity for the two to compare.
Sounds good! I believe Terex is ready to go, I've made my couple of tweaks.
That works for me!
Let's go shoot stuff, my little flying jellyfish friend.
Blackfire will fall to black powder flash.
I note that neither of us seems to have dimensional travelling capabilities, I take it we're hitching a ride.

And just like that a hilarious scene enters my mind of Lydia trying to show Eli how to shape his tentacle into a thumbs-up hitchhiking gesture.
[EDIT] Not unrelated, updating equipment to include a towel.

I knew I picked up the Gesture Expertise trait for a reason, and I'm glad Lydia is the sort of hoopy frood who really knows where her towel is.
Alright, cool. Two pairs. Now, depending on which of these you choose you might have to wait a short time to be introduced, or adventure on your own.
Choose one, and try not to metagame knowledge the others.
Your characters are allied with this vizier from a past adventure, and have just arrived in the Foreign Quarter of the City of Brass, and must now search out the djinni hideout.
I'm particularly interested in both the supply chain tracking and the Djinni pride leads
On one hand, as an accountant, Sir Crunchy would love to poor over documents and ledgers to track nefarious deeds.
On the other hand, as he lives on the Plane of Air, working for some Djinni vizier's on behalf of the Riftwardens would also fit.
What about you Terex?
Hmmmm... I could see Terex and Sir Crunchy being Reinforcements.
I would also be fine with being reinforcements.
PORTAL CHASE!
I didn't even look at the others.
Yeah Portal Chase is perfect for Eli and Lydia

So it look like we got our teams ready!
We have a Scooby Doo chase scene featuring our local gunslinging Blackpowder adepts.
And a bid for extra manpower bringing in a sneaky psuedodragon and a talkative crab.
"Are you... the familiars of the Riftwardens I summoned?"
"No, we are the RiftWardens you summoned."
Ok! I shall post here when each group is ready. Let me know if there's a change.
Amarélys not too happily elects to follow Zadok's advice. She was quite flustered that someone would not heed her words. It was rare and not too pleasant. But, they couldn't just go on arguing, time was of the essence. Wearing her face like a mask under her mask, to avoid giving up her current stance, Amarélys waits silently for Kalio to come back.
"Thank you." she says in answer before attempting to take back control of the situation. "This one is probably the most important one since they were about to transport her away first." she says, pointing at the sylph on the ground.
And, after ignoring the awkwardly positioned body for the whole absence of Kalio, because she was flustered, Amarélys finally bows to put it in a more appropriate position.
"Who are you, as in what are you guiding motives, would be a good first question. There is little reason to lie about it. Can it be better translate in Auran, to have this kind of deeper meaning?" she asks Kalio
Think you might have posted in the wrong thread
haha, oops
OK - I still need Eli to update/add his statblock to his alias and give me that quick-reference stats header.
Terexaltherin and Sir Crunchy will get their first intro post as soon as Zadok and Amarelys are finished with this interrogation.
We will try to make this quick!
Eli is updated and ready to do some gate crashing.
Ok, I have posted an intro for Terexaltherin and for Sir Crunchy.
Apologies for the wait, you other two. I'd really like to introduce you at a suitably dramatic moment, so the right time must come.
