Nice crit on that last hit, Fliss!

Nope. Hard pass. Not getting fooled again. I'll take a look at the real thing when it's posted to AoN.
Wandering GM Wastrel |
Crap. Crap. Crap.
Update will come Tuesday, I promise.
Wandering GM Wastrel |
...well bugger. I'm sure I posted something.
Le sigh. Posting now.
Wandering GM Wastrel |
Before anyone asks, no, I didn't invent the twins - they came with the adventure.
It's an added bonus.
Wandering GM Wastrel |
Fliss makes her way upstairs, pausing briefly to admire the quality of the lampshade.
...well played :)
Wandering GM Wastrel |
Fliss has some RL stuff going on - going to give her a bit longer to post before moving forwards.
Shaumatiel |
Same. Hope she is okay, and looking forward to proceeding with the game. :)
Fliss Cooper |
Aww, thanks :)
All good, just glad it's the weekend.
She winces as another burst of song filters through the door from the kitchen. It shouldn't be possible to butcher a Galtan folk-song that badly - by the law of averages, you'd think at least one note would be in tune.
But no.
"Sonnay lemon teener, sonnay lemon teener..."
This made my eyes water :(

OK, seriously?
Actual girl-gamer here. I’ve put up with a lot over the years, to the point where I basically just played male caharacters at the table top to try and avoid getting hit on. I’ve no issue with “adult” themes and so on, but as far as I’m concerned “adult” means “grownup” - and there’s nothing grownup about “tee hee hee, I’ve got breasts”
Is it really necessary to be so blatant about it?
Shaumatiel |
I apologize for my previous post. It was meant as a joke but looking back at it, I realize it was inappropriate and offensive. Unfortunately the window has passed for me to be able to delete it.
I will endeavor to be more mature about things going forward.
Wandering GM Wastrel |
Firstly, Sarah - thanks for sharing your perspective. We always benefit from hearing how the other side lives. All I would say (apart from my sincere hope that you never felt uncomfortable at any of my gaming tables) is that PbP relies entirely on the written word, which doesn't allow for much in the way of tone or body language. That means that picking someone up on what they have done and/or expressing discomfort is best done separately from venting.
Secondly, Shaumatiel/Brainiac - thanks for de-escalating. I'm glad to have players who rise above the normal calibre of internet interactions ("you suck!" "No, you suck MORE!!!11").
Fliss Cooper |
Having re-read your post, it wasn't actually all that bad. I am probably guilty of taking out on you what I never felt brave enough to say in-person to the various creeps I've encountered. (Sorry.) Let's just put this behind us and move on.
And no, I never had a problem at your table. Psychological scars from all the things you inflicted on my characters, yes (I STILL can't believe we let you run that Kingmaker-meets-Game of Thrones on us). Harassed/uncomfortable, never.
Wandering GM Wastrel |
(I STILL can't believe we let you run that Kingmaker-meets-Game of Thrones on us).
Yeah, about that...
Sorry for delay in posting, I'll get us moving again tonight.

If anybody excels at soul crushing character drama, it's Wastrel.

Oh no you didn't
Wandering GM Wastrel |
We're still alive! All of us! I mean, what could truly go wrong when your leader is a goody-two-shoes paladin of Shelyn, right?
I wouldn't know

I have to say, DMing in PF2 is actually quite fun. The combats flow smoothly, the stat-blocks seem to be well laid out and things just generally work.
I still think the numbers are slightly screwy (DCs are almost uniformly too high, in my opinion; and creatures are slightly over-powered, especially their AC and to-hit bonuses) - but the sense of annoyance/barely-suppressed rage that I felt during the playtest is (so far!) completely absent.
Giuseffe D'Azzo |
I feel like the game can use some more 'static' modifiers to spice things up a little. And by that, I mean conditions such as a slippery surface, a hard wind blowing dust and grime about, flickering lights, cacophonic noise and so on that can impact various stats and or rolls. They could even scale with level and or encounter difficulty, and it would give players a reason to push or pull a foe into specific tiles.
Maybe that's a bit too gamey and MMORPGesque, but it beats the 'well, here's to hoping I roll a 15+!' I now feel when fighting a boss :P
Wandering GM Wastrel |
I've lost internet access for the last couple of days, hoping it will be fixed soon.
Posting from my phone is a complete pain - I'll get things moving as soon as I'm back online.
Wandering GM Wastrel |
Hi guys n gals,
If any of you are looking for another game and are rabid Tolkien fans, I am going to run a 5e campaign set in Middle-Earth. There's a sourcebook that you have to buy, but it costs all of one dollar and is available here (and fifteen dollars buys you a bunch of the most amazing sourcebooks you will ever read).
If you're interested, the recruitment thread is here.
Fliss Cooper |
Oh hells yes! Rider of Rohan for sure - Eowyn Eodredsdottir is one of my favourite fictional characters (I can neither confirm nor deny that I had a horrendous girl-crush on Miranda Otto).
Count me in for sure.
Wandering GM Wastrel |
Shaumatiel - that's fine to change the skill roll.
Shaumatiel |
Thanks! You're the best!
Wandering GM Wastrel |
I'll roll for Giuseffe in a bit to keep this moving.
Wandering GM Wastrel |
Nothing from Giuseffe for a while - hope all is OK!

"Although, if we can't find the half-orc, then all we've got is you. So if you know where he's at, you'd better cough it up."
Point of clarification: the only half-orc you've encountered is Tamli, Bort's second in command.
Hallod is a human. A large, threatening human, but not a half-orc.
(You've already encountered him, in fact. Here, final paragraph. And also here, 3rd paragraph)
Wandering GM Wastrel |
Work crazy busy, update tomorrow. Let me know if you are following Fliss or doing something different.
Shaumatiel |
Shaumatiel will follow Fliss.
Wandering GM Wastrel |
Hi, all - RL is giving me a bit of a kicking at the moment. I will get some posts up this evening/tomorrow with a view to resuming normal service thereafter.
Sorry for any delays, thanks for bearing with me.
Shaumatiel |
I will be out of town without internet access from Saturday 2/29 until Friday 3/6. It may take me until the following Monday to catch up on everything.
GM, please bot me as necessary.
