[PFS, GDIX] PFS(2) 1-11: Flames of Rebellion (Inactive)

Game Master Blake's Tiger

This is a Gameday IX Convention recruitment. No sign-up before 8/12/2020 will be considered valid except for confirmed early GM seating, which is only valid 8/5/2020.

Due to a sudden change in life circumstances, I must cancel this Gameday offering.

Due to a fortuitous change circumstances, I will be able to offer a table for Gameday XI. Therefore, I am reopening this table.

Signing up for a spot.

I'll be joining with a brand new oracle (ancestors).

No name yet, but there will be before September 1.

The ancestors mystery is skinned as him being a reality show contestant where people are voting on what he should do next.

I'd like to apply either with this alchemist, or a goblin sorcerer. One of the two will be available when gameday starts.

I'm new to the Gameday format. Are the Gameday campaigns run like regular PbP games? with the expectation of 1-2 posts/day?

If so, then I put forward Victor, a Level 1 Human Dhampir Investigator.

Yes, Victor. The schedule is tighter, but otherwise they are the same as regular PbP games. What makes it a convention is that all the games start and must finish by the same defined times.

I've just been talking to a friend of mine and it turns out that despite my purchase of the APG, the use of a Dhampir heritage is only available through the purchase of an 80.00 Achievement Point boon.

I do not yet have that number of APs, so I'm going to have to rework my investigator a little to come up with a different Ancestry or Heritage that I can afford (ie. free). He will otherwise essentially be the same character.

Sorry about that.

No worries. Always Available ancestries are: human (and half-orc and half-elf heritages), dwarf, elf, goblin, gnome, kobold, and halfling.

I'm pretty sure I got them all.

I went with elf as his ancestry. It was the closest one to a human dhampir I could find. He's a little squishier now, but a lot faster.

He is now Victor "The Albino", elf investigator level 1.

He is now Victor "The Albino", elf investigator level 1.

The name was bugging me, so I've changed it to Elfino instead.

Since we have a legal table's worth of players, I've opened the Gameplay thread for you to dot-delete into to register this campaign to your Campaign tracking page.

FYI, I'll be off the grid for the next three days (unable to access computers/internet). When I get back Sunday evening, hopefully I'll have a clearer picture of which character I'm dotting-in with.

That's cool. Is it pronounced elf-EE-no or elf-EYE-no?

In my mind, I was using the more Spanish pronunciation of elf-EE-no.

It's odd that the elf-EYE-no pronunciation hadn't even crossed my mind. I guess that's what comes from living in Spain for so long.

It helps me a ton when I know how a player pronounces their PC's name. I assumed it rhymed with albino, since he is an albino elf. I guess I could see it as "El Fino".

Alb-eye-no is actually more an American English pronunciation of the word, and though I am now an American, I grew up in Australia, and the usual British English pronunciation is alb-ee-no, which is the way I hear it in my mind to this day, so elf-ee-no it is.

But the Spanish connection is interesting. Elf in Spanish translates to elfo, and in Spanish, elfino is a diminutive version of elfo, which roughly translates to "little elf" (cue irony), but if you split it the way you did as "El Fino", it roughly translates to "The thin one", or "the fine one", which works even better.

I didn't know my simple contraction had such hidden depths. I guess I'm stuck with it now.

Do you pronounce Brunwulf in the more German way, as Broonvoolf or the more English Bruhnwoolf.

Is there room for one more? This witch is hot off the presses.

Broonvoolf. :)
I need to stick the umlaut over the first u.

Ikta would make 5. The session is not yet closed.

Great! Thanks for welcoming me. And while we're on a name pronunciation kick, Itka is pronounced "IT-kuh".

Discussion and Slide Deck are now available.

Okay, this character's current scenario is officially wrapping up. So dotting in.

Hi, wondering if there's still space? Zephari is a L1 primal sorcerer, built to be able to front-line somewhat.

There is one more seat.

Great, would love to join. Will start entering his details.
