Hey, first time playing play by post. I've played/gm'd discord for the past two years. I think the most beneficial for the group is to play my Fighter (also first level). I'll watch y'alls formatting and try to emulate it. I'm in a PBD game with said fighter, but it should be ending soon, if not I'll bring my Wizard.

Thanks!

I'm not really picky about formatting as long as I can see you vital statistics and bonuses.

According to the signup we have 6 players. But we have 2 players who haven't posted here: James C. Yergi Manahath Champion and AJ Nicholson Anton Goldthimble Ranger.

Thanks. I'll try to send them each a PM.

I'm here! Sorry - got so caught up getting ready for the game I'm running (It's my first time running a PbP) I totally forgot to muster for the game I'm playing in!

For the marching order, which end is in front? Left or right?

Left is the front; sorry, that could be more clear.

Marra and Tor are fine with the center but those spots were taken. Much better for the party if the Champion is in front of the raptor.

We'll be kicking off soon--after 12 GMT.

The adventure opens in a tea house in Tian Xia. You are being served an elaborate tea while waiting for Amara Li, a friend of the Pathfinder Society.

Please introduce your character in the Gameplay thread!

Should we try and relace AJ Nicholson? 2E games fill fast so we could probably find a player.
@Yergi did you want to be in the front of the party?

Default spells.

Cantrips
Light from Wayfinder
Electric Arc
Ray of Frost
Detect Magic
Stabilize
Guidance

Level 1
Magic Fang
Heal

Scroll choices from school will depend on the final party composition.

If they don't check in by the morning, I'll look for a replacement to join us while we're dealing with the briefing.

@Yergi did you want to be in the front of the party?

I was wanting to be near the front, as I'm a Paladin and so fairly tanky.

Hi! AJ Nicholson here. if you already filled my spot I understand. Covid-19 has screwed up RL so much that I forgot I signed up for this. I am also nervous as I never done PBP and with my life in upheaval I am not sure if this is the time to start

Player: A. J. Nicholson
Character: Anton Goldthimble
Faction Boon: Envoy's Alliance

Don't worry, you are still on time! I'm sorry that life is stressful! I find PBP to be a nice little break during the day, but if it's too much, I understand. Feel free to ask questions if you have them about PBP. The community is very welcoming, and I'm sure everyone would be willing to chime in and help out.

If you end up having a rough patch during the game and just need a couple days, let us know. We can always bot you and fill you in when you are able to participate.

Okay I am trying to figure out how to make it so I always answer as Anton and i am trying to figure out how to give Anton the picture you see as 2 Coppers Worth.

I think you figured out the picture and posting as them. Now you just need to put some basic info in your profile. You'll see it under our names. In my case I typed it out in the Classes/Levels rom.

You will also need to fill in your character info which can take some time if you are doing it manually.

@GM MattMorris With Tor in the party we need extra space for the marching order.

I moved us around assuming Yergi in front in the front at the left. Everyone feel free to double check if they are happy with the current order.

We are 5 now, 6 with Tor. That's fine.

Checked the marching order and replaced myself where I was before. I don't want to go first.

We are one frontliner and the rest of us are ranged, magic, or suppoprt. I don't want to be in front either when walking abreast. I am a crossbow man. Are you sure you don't want Tor in front with you directly behind. Then Garad and I can take the back? I will be upfront if no one else will. Anton, ain't no coward.

efildam/Aehronim Davain is our 7th. They haven't filled out the sheet yet.

@ UkhI had you near the back with Tor and Marra in the center. You have pushed Marra and Tor to the back and moved yourself closer to the front. Was that your intent?

@Anton Goldthimble I had you in the second spot. Did you want to be near the front or near the back?

Edit: Tor is a secondary frontliner and Marra wants to be behind him. Just make sure everyone is happy before our first combat. Remember the left is the front.

Second spot single file is good. Front when walking 2x7 is bad.

I was thinking maybe something like that. Or when going single file Ukh might want to go second so he can throw easier and Tor and Marra behind him?

Well. Used to see front on the right.

Oh with the sword and board fighter on the left I assumed the left was the front.

Okay so how do I get this full character sheet thing like Ukh has going on there? When I click edit my profile for anton Goldthimble. it only has place for Name, Race, Classes/Lvls, Gender, Size, Age, Special Abilities, Alignment, Diety, Location, Languages, Occupation and my Stats.

GM MattMorris said left was front.

Tab near the top Organized Play -> My Organized Play -> Click the name of the character you are using and you should see a big blank area under About Character Name. I just copied someones profile and changed the info to match my character.

You can also click on your character's name and click "Edit My Profile." There should be a section that says "About Anton Goldthimble"

Uugg. I did what you said copied Garad's stuff and changed it for my character. Then when I hit save changes it gave me that stupid you have gone to far back Piazo error message. I will do it on blank word doc and copy and paste. However, I got to go to work guys. Bare with the newbie, I will get there. Until later this evening.

Oh, it happened to everybody. Now you know that it's more secured to copy the whole text before to submit.

Yeah, sorry about that. As Ukh said, it happens all too frequently. I always copy long posts before I hit submit. No worries about being new.

On the Outpost III sign-up I’m the sixth player or am I missing an etiquette point for play by post?

No. There are 6 players but my animal companion Tor has to stand somewhere. We need more room in the marching order for a party of 7.

Marra was just talking about our marching order. No big deal!

Oh, that makes more sense. Aehronim has a raven familiar if that needs to be factored in.

I think since it is tiny it can share your square.

What spells does Aehronim Davain usually memorize? I need to finalize what free scrolls Marra would grab before we leave. Pretty sure one will be an extra Cure.

Actually, Aehronim hasn't posted info here, has no profile, and hasn't filled out the form on the slides yet.

Yep, I think we will end up being a Party of 5

No reason he can't play. He just needs to make a profile and provide the needed info.

I expanded the Macros boxes so Aehronim can enter his and Oros's info into them.

Marra's second scroll will be another Heal.

I doubt it will matter but does Tor get the +5 speed boost?

Yes, he gets it too.

It's weird that we finished that fight in 2 rounds, I don't think any of us or the townsfolk took dmg, But the scenario hit us with a debuff. Maybe it is just a random effect.

It is. The town give a buff and a de-buff regardless of your performance in the battle.

(If you don't do well in the social interaction, you don't get the buff, and it lessens your treasure.)
