Thurl signing in
I’m going to have to retrain my brain for all our new avatars.
Oh, and set up my rss to email anew.
I have given up on the warpriest and inquisitor. Since, Brandon has decided to join, I don't care what character I play, and I don't really know what the new party needs, I have decided to retain the services of Alset.
As you may recall, Alset has a high stealth and a silent flying owl that can retrieve arrows made sense.
Well, that’s a great way to start this off!
Using Alset's prior total and adding the 6th level.
We’re not going full tilt until February, right?

Correct. You can mingle with NPCs and each other all you want. Like when we were on board the ship last time talking. When I have time I will post responses of NPCs.
@GM - Is the BU an outdoor establishment? Your link to the map shows tables(?) and barrels(?) on a beach.
Also, will you create a shared folder for all our maps, character sheets, etc.?

The Bloated Unicorn, you'll recall, is an outdoor, beachside bar, with a pygmy rhinoceros for a mascot/portable taproom.
The shared folder is made. I have, however, forgotten how to share (and so have my kids! Buh-dum, tish.)

No, I'm sorry, I did not recall. I remember Odie fighting on the beach in some sort of contest, but not the name of the place. I take back all I said/wrote about having my characters back to the wall to see the entrance of the BU.

You could *not* sit with your back to the beach, watching the paths between the palm trees for newcomers.
There is a physical building (cramped, small) where you can stay the night, but it is obviously not the appeal of this place. There is also the newly-built Temple/Classroom/Forge (built on either the old Temple of Erastil or the lumbermill) if your PC wants a different place to stay the night. I think those had rooms, right?
Lem checking in! I have slacked on getting the stuff shared but I'll have it "soon."
FYI: For the map, you can see much more of it if you click View and deselect Show Speaker Notes, and then click View and click Full Screen. It's not actually Full Screen, it gets rid of the controls at the top of the page.
Wait, is Bragoleb the same person as Alset? I thought you were just copy/pasting his character sheet.

Yes, the exact same person with a new name given by the halflings. I'm just that lazy. But, I did have him shave so I could get a new avatar.
He probably did it to avoid the "No two names starting with the same letter" rule. Maybe our inquisitor could be... Barbaro? LOL JK.
Tangential Question: What color do you like associated with your PC? We color code things in the Campaign Tracker (which, no, I haven't set up yet). Tell me if you agree with the below:
Arbaro: Green (cause he's woodsy)
Bragoleb: Gray (Cause that's like silver but readable)
Lem: Red (His hair is red, and barbarians have fiery personalities.)
Thurl: Brown (Clothes are all brown, and monks are poorly/simply clothed.)
Gray is good for Brag.
Brown is very fitting for Thurl. I guess that just means that next time I need to make a character that would naturally be associated with purple.
Also, continuing my tradition from Stonewall, Thurl is named after someone.

Triple T!!!!! That's great.
And, a thirty-nine and a half foot pole.
last names are always hard... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halfling
Red seems perfect.
Green seems like a good choice.

That’s why I like dwarves. I always see them as having last names that are compound words that are descriptive of what they do or their families have done in the past so I have an easier time naming them.
A lot of hobbits in Tolkien had compound names like that too.
I also like to go HERE and look up names inspired by real-world linguistic groups.

Why purple? And what's Triple T mean?

Language barriers, oh what fun.
haha, this is great!
Also makes picking skills next level easier: Language(Polyglot)

#pullinganAlset #notjoking #pleaseexplainthejoketome
I assume he likes purple, but don't know. Maybe a Ravens or Vikings fan.
Thurl was a voice actor/singer. He's the singer of the Grinch song (Stink, Stank, Stunk...), i.e., "39.5 ft. pole" and the voice of Tony the Tiger, i.e., Triple T.

I knew who he was (thanks, Alexa, for saying the artist every time we play the Grinch song) but didn't get the abbreviated cereal mascot character connection.
Also, he sings this bit here which is just ridiculous. He's in a bunch of disney stuff including (among many others):
The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh (Honey Pot in the trippy dream sequence)
Aristocats (one of the cats in the band toward the end)
Alice in Wonderland (one of the Cards)
Brave Little Toaster (IMDb says Kirby but its been so long since I've seen it that I've forgotten who Kirby is, I just remember his voice)
Edit: Also, Bragoleb is correct, I just like purple, its unrelated to everything else
Those goblins have two throats. So weird looking.
Kirby is the vacuum. (And the reason for the video game character being named after that brand.)
Edit: Also, Bragoleb is correct, I just like purple, its unrelated to everything else
We should find a party name like Party of Purple Powers, or Purple Power Producers, or Purple Protectors, etc. Why? Caleb likes purple, Davis likes purple, I like purple so why not?
Also, purple might entice Brandon just a bit more, he's a Vikings fan.
Purple People (P)eaters.
Should Brag know (be able to speak) Polyglot or Halfling? I'm thinking Halfling. Yep, Halfling, it is.
Also, I've added a tab (Dice Rolls) to the campaign tracker to track our ... dice rolls. So far, it is up-to-date.
Purple People (P)eaters.
Flying Purple People [P]eaters - after all, we have two bird companions in the group.
Pathfinder Actions in case you forgot or are playing a strange new character and forgot how.
I have already failed to do the language thing. Each time we speak we'll have to specify a language. That's going to be both a challenge (to remember) and fun to role play.
Exposition time!
She can speak both Polyglot and Common, so you can assume someone is translating at this point.
I just shifted some skill points around. I don't think it affected any skills I've already used except a knowledge skill here or there by 1 point. Just wanted to make it so that I had the same bonus for all Knowledges so that I don't have to keep track of each one.
Brag “ I ain’t afraid of no ghost! “
Fortunately, this ghost doesn't need bustin'.
Hey! This is ROLEPLAYING we're trying to do here! I want you to take this pretend ghost-haunted merfolk occultist SERIOUSLY.
I researched rage abilities poorly and took a more appropriate feat as well I think.
practical changes
1. I can no longer cleave, but I can intimidate as a free action in combat.
2. I move faster and can't do 2 things I was probably never going to remember to use anyway.
Brag “ I ain’t afraid of no ghost! “
LIKE.
2. I... can't do 2 things I was probably never going to remember to use anyway.
That's like half of the reason I pick anything when I make a character.
The last 10 d20 rolls have resulted in 2 20s, 2 19s, and 1 18. And, of course a single 1. Things are trending up.
