Welcome to the Lastwall Recruitment Center (Inactive)

Game Master PDXCook

It begins.

Ready to roll.

Aye, when do we set off?

It's been a while since I've been in a game on the Paizo boards (most of my pbp is done on myth-weavers) so I'll brush up on expected formatting for posts.

7ft of mild-mannered half-orc reporting for duty

looking forward to playing with all of you

For Lastwall! *Hand over heart*

:)

Out of habit I had given Shane traits, but I've removed them now so he fits Core requirements.

So ready and thanks for having me.

Thanks for the invite GM PDXCook! Looking forward to playing Seamus with you all.

It's been a while since I've been in a game on the Paizo boards (most of my pbp is done on myth-weavers) so I'll brush up on expected formatting for posts.

Matias, as for 'brushing up on formatting' may I recommend looking over this Discussion thread.

PDX, do you mind if we call you PDX? What kind of posting rate are you looking for? Would you open the game thread so we can dot and delete? That way the game will show on our que.

Ready to roll as well. Seems like a fun adventure.

I am hoping to start soon. I realize that I am not as prepared as I thought. Thursday is my goal since that is my next day off of work. I work at Home Depot and it is amazing the amount of people that we have showing up for "essential" needs. I did not realize that picking a new paint color for the living room was essential or redoing the lawn was essential or that the cute Pinterest project was essential. I don't think they realize what pandemic means.

Okay getting off my soapbox now. Let's just say that work is keeping me busy. I plan on posting after work before I go to bed. I plan on keeping a casual pace on posting. Once a day is great but I am not going to get upset if you miss a day or two. I do reserve the right to autopilot your character if I need to keep things moving.

I am going to punch all of your characters into my Hero Lab to keep track of them. If you have Hero Lab and want to send me the file message me and I will give you my email.

Me too.

do you mind if we call you PDX

PDX is fine. If you know what it means you will know where I live.

That is all for now. Gameplay is up so dot in on that. Keep your questions coming. I will get to them as soon as I can.

Also some of you did not answer the recruiting officer, so go do that.

I've now replied to the officer, though I'm still not showing the gampelay thread up :(

okay now it is open.

Hmmmm, not a clue, will need to think about it.

Speaking of where, I'm in central Ohio about an hour from Columbus, so eastern time zone. Been playing on the boards for five years. Normally play melee and skill. This is my second cleric. Wanted to try reach cleric that will spend a lot of time at higher levels summoning stuff...

So dotted and deleted in game.

PDX do you want us to come up with SOP for not being able to post and put it on our character sheet?

Also, how do you plan on doing initiative? I find there are things that can help combat go quicker. Will you roll Init? Will you do Init in blocks? ie the monsters roll init together, then the players either go before or after the monsters, not worrying about order.

Dotted and deleted as well :)

Sorry, I keep dotting in Gameplay with the wrong Avatar. Things not to do when running on 2 hours of sleep.

I am continuing to send PM to people so keep an eye out for them.

cool

What should we do if we happen to already have a rank in one of the listed skills in the opening post? Specifically in my case, Knowledge (geography).

Just add one rank

GM PDXCook, I wasn't thinking about only using the core rulebook when I selected Seamus. He's a core race and a core class, but I realized some of the feats I will want him to have are from 'ultimate magic.' Will you permit the use of non-core book feats?

Thanks, GM.

Non-Core rules are in your future but not yet.

Non-Core rules are in your future but not yet.

Cool, thanks for the quick answer. I normally play melee or skill characters, and have never played a controller, buffer or debuffer. Seamus is my first attempt at playing a Cleric that is not strictly melee.

So when you gave us the free feat and thanks for that :) I checked my list for future feat's; comparing feats that fit a caster oriented cleric to ones that fit a martial oriented cleric. That's when I realized I should ask if the ones I was planning on taking at higher levels would be cool or not.

Picked power attack, probably will go with furious focus or toughness at 3rd level. Then will hopefully start looking at feats to help with summoning.

Of course this is if we do more than just a 'one shot' :)

Yeah, I was in a similar boat. I was planning for Guided Hand and completely forgot to look at its book. My actual copy of the crb is sitting on the table of my RL gaming group Where I am not allowed to travel to these days. I did find that you can still reach the old feat index and filter for Core. That helps a lot.

Forum on Military Wages

This link offers a discussion on wages in the Paizo Forums. Hope it helps.

There's also the Earn a Living part of a profession (soldier) check. Definitely a bit more random as we have varying Wisdom bonuses and the dice can be evil. It would mean at this level, on a nat 1, the lowest anyone's getting is 2gp/week someone made the sergeant mad and the highest is 14gp/week on a natural 20 have a bonus, you saved the whole squad from imminent death!.

I've added the gear from my kit, and organized all of my gear by where it's stored, on my character page, DMPDXCook.

Let's call it 10gp per week for now.

That would mean that each of you has 80 gold pieces waiting for you at the quartermasters office. You have the run of the town so if there is anything you want to buy go ahead.

123gp sitting in my coin pouch, I should visit the local general store to buy useful mundane items...or I could visit the tavern.

On the more serious side of that comment, do you want us to roll any kind of checks to guess at what could be useful or do you want us to be insane ttrpg nerds looks around at everyone else...it's not just me, right? and come up with 100+ items for 100gp to load our horses down?

...I'm assuming we'll get access to a horse along with the saddlebag. Or maybe Hulka is going to make us wear them on a 37-mile run?

Maybe that's what killed the last squad D:

Remember that the kits you are given are government property so you are required to maintain it and return it when you are discharged from the service. Just keep any duplicate stuff you don't want to carry around in your footlocker. Keep it on a separate list somewhere.

do you want us to roll any kind of checks to guess at what could be useful

No, because I am making this up as we go along.

Another good answer, you must have done something like this before :)

I have added a map link. It is just above my icon. Let me know if you can view it.

viewable, but unable to move my icon.

Only I can move the icons at this point.

map viewed

oooo...Ominous.

viewed!

Can't see what's inside, but I assume that's by design. Otherwise it's working fine for me.

If we are all ready I will move on tomorrow. I started my birthday vacation week today and started drinking at noon so my typing skills are diminished at this point.

xD

I'm ready to go.

Ready, Willing & Able!

Happy Birthday!

good to go, and happy birthday :)

Happy birthday and ready

Happy Birthday! Ready to go; Matias is going to wait on purchasing other stuff.

Nothing from Rex in the last week so I booted him from the campaign. If he contacts me and wants back I will consider it. For now we move on.

Hulka did warn us about his last squad...another one bites the dust.

Apologies everyone I just returned from 5 days in the hospital. Due to the no visitor policy at the hospital my communication with the outside was very limited. I was diagnosed with DKA (Diabetic Ketoacidosis) and was almost in a coma. I will bow out of this campaign at this point officially and allow someone else to fill in.

I hope you are feeling better, and good luck! :(

Sorry to hear that. Hospitals are no fun. Take care of yourself and I will add you to my prayer list.

Yikes. Good luck and godbless, Rex

Prayers, get well. Hopeful for a fast recovery.
