Thanks for the opportunity! I'll get to building Bonehead's Alias!
Wow, thanks a lot for the opportunity to join this one The Kobold Klan - good to be on board with you guys!
*cough* I do Hope you guys don't mind any delays, as i Mentioned in Recruitment, i have actually been invited to 2 games elsewhere, One her on Paizo, as well as one on Roll 20 every now and then.
But other than that there are some things I want to Establish before teh game so you are on board and understand what's going on at the start of the game.
1) You Have been Captured from your World on the Prime material plane, or Sigil or wherever you where before the start by Githyanki Slavers and are starting the game stripped of equipment in the brig of their Astral ship.
2) At the start you will be basically doing the start of Skulls and Shackles, but with a twist- which i wont explain here, but the Githyanki will not be around for very long.
3)you all should be aware that you have the spark of godhood, and the Gith will know that too, but you don't know that each of you have it unless you choose to explain it IC. However you may also choose to not even know what exactly it is, just that it is immense power, or whatever suits your backstory best- Just know that somone other than you knows you are mythic.
No worries. We can probably keep each other busy with "getting to know you" stuff since it's the beginning. You never specified a post rate, so this game can roll along slowly, if need be. I'm in quite a few games that are lucky to see one post per day from even one person, let alone all of them.
Will we begin play bound? Gagged?
Your alignment is determined by two numbers between 0-100: one for Law/Chaos and one for Good/Evil. 0-35 Is Evil/Chaotic, 36-65 is Neutral, and 66-100 is Good/Lawful.
I think I did this wrong before, I thought it was splitting a percentage, but since I'm Lawful Good, both my numbers should be high. So let's say Lawful 93, Good 97
ah yes, that should work, It means you are a bit more pure than Normal, and Are alot more Orderly than Normal, most folks are within 10 points of shifting to neutral, like there is a much larger alignment chart with like "lawful Corrupt" or "Chaotic moral" i need to find that full chart...
but you will begin play Muted- or rather: you cant cast magic of any kind- A special Metal collar will be given to you that doesnt prevent you from gaining spell slots and prepping them, but does give you a 100% spell failure(divine and arcane), and any spells cast while wearing them fail and the slot expended
oh! it also mutes Psychic powers- however it also treats you as if under the Non-detection spell and Mind blank.
if you have ever played Divinity Original Sin 2- it's basically the Source Mute Collars
oh good it does, but at your number range you actually do fall into Lawful good
but basically anything within the 10 points where the alignment shifts is where those middle spaces are
All good from my end Lonely DM - though even if we did not set the pace from the start, and if we are being honest, I personally prefer at least one post a day. From my experience it keeps the game alive.
I would say Rorx is Rebel Good :D
I will be adding my crunch to the alias in a few, then I'll be ready to go.
Crunch updated - still have some gear to purchase, but seeing as we have been stripped of everything, I guess it is not relevant for now :P
Also, Lonely DM, I assume Scourge, my familiar is around there somewhere with me, or...?
Ah yes,any Familiars you had are Stowaways
hmmmmm, is everyone here and ready?
Check.
I think so. I try to post once a day as well.
Present! I updated the sheet to reflect that she is NOT currently wearing her armor.
I'm still a little confused about the Mythic tier. It looks like I also get a Mythic Feat but there is very little to chose from since they have the normal version of the feat as a prerequisite. I guess I could take the 2 extra uses of mythic power.
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
yes, early Mythic feats are rough, as you dont really have much to choose from. but yeah, if that is everyone I will be writing up the first post when i have time :P expect that soon.
You can also take a regular feat in place of a mythic one.
I want to let you guys RP a little to get yourselves acquainted, and all that
I'm thinking of swapping my Natural Flyer trait for something else, if that's ok? Versatile Performance (dance) makes it redundant.
I don't see any reason to Say no, as long as your trait isn't too Exploitative
How about Inspired? Be a lucky lizard.
AH YES! advantage once a day on one skill check.... (I just call those kind of rolls advantage because 5e did a good job simplifying it) I will approve
Hey Lonely DM, I don't want to be that guy, but what posting rate do you think can be expected from your end on this here venture of ours into Planescape?
Usually PbP starts with a flurry of posting, so I am a bit concerned with our rhythm...
Apologies if I am being blunt.
It's okay to relax over the weekend, but I'm afraid I've got to echo Rorx's sentiment here. It's been a week since you've push the game forward, Lonely DM. This isn't a very healthy schedule for a game...
Just a dot to say I am around - hope all is well with The Lonely DM.
I'm here too. Just wanted to say I'm enjoying the game so far and am personally alright with a game that runs at a slower pace when need be. I'm in several as well as GMing and while a steady pace of posts does a lot to keep the game alive, I would still prefer a slow game to no game.
We could maybe try and vamp with some more icebreaker sort of stuff? The GM looks to be behind in some other games too and catching up can be a daunting task when you've had an absence.
I'm on board with that, I think I asked Rorx about his mentor earlier if he wants to jump on that. I'll try and think of other things too.
