Welcome players! This is a one-shot Wandering Way scenario, meant to be casual and fun!
I'll set up a discord channel on the PACG PbP discord server for realish-time discussion, unless folks have different preferences.
Discord is great for me - that's where my other PACG games are as well.
Discord is fine for me as well. Looking forward to the game!
Just a note that, if we don't end up with more players (or even if we do), I could swap out Kess and replace her with a tier 5 Ramexes or Mother Myrtle. Whatever makes sense for the scenario.
Right now it's just the two of us, right? BR, are you playing too?
I'll join you with Siwar. I believe we've all played together before, when I was running either Balazar or Amiri.
Discord is great. I'm on there all the time. :)
Great, glad to have you join.
Excellent!
Hey, I'll join too as Talitha.
Love her. Actually, the other two also rank high on my list, though I've only seen Kess played. :)
Anyway, happy to have you. The bigger the party, the better!
Anyone taking any Dragon's Demand rewards?
Was thinking of swapping out an armor for an Incitation blessing, possibly.
As far as upgrades go, I'm keen on an item 5. Looking for Amulet of Furious Fists. But allies and armors are also good. :)
Radovan has the Dragon's Demand boon but doesn't typically take any of the cards.
For upgrades, the top of my priority list is also an Item 5 (ring of regeneration). I'm also on the lookout for a Blessing 3.
Strategy-wise, Radovan likes traveling with companions because of these powers:
Also, he especially likes encountering banes that invoke Fire or Poison (he gets to display monsters for that too) so feel free to send such banes my way when possible.
Also, Radovan can freely evade encounters, so it might makes sense for him and Siwar to stick together since she has a power to evade as well - if she finds a nasty bane that we don't want to deal with she can evade it to me, and then I can evade it as well.
I was thinking I would definitely pair up with Radovan, yup!
I do not have the DD reward, so it's all yours.
I do have a gen con reward (3A from 2016) that allows me to encounter a boon instead of another local character - great for ensuring spells are not lost.
And obviously, I'm a bard. My bardsong is d4 +1 right now.
My post should always include which cards in my hand I am willing to recharge or reload for it without being asked, on top of blessing or spells that are available.
I just reached tier five, so spells and allies are top of my list, but I'm sure there's an item or blessing I could upgrade as well (I'm bad about looking ahead).
Talitha is all about rerolls and has several different ways to do so. She is a blast to play. She buries blessings after using them, then can recharge them to reroll dice. Don't hesitate to use any of her blessings! They are there for anyone to use.
Also, has a Discord been set up yet?
Kess's blessings are always available as well.
Don't think a Discord has been set up yet.
Discord is on this server:
https://discord.gg/GgPmXwja
And then DM BRBot or use the bot-spam channel to join the server.

Ok, done. I think.
Let me know what boon types you all want and I'll post the draws here. Also tell me what you're doing with your hero points, and I'll get chronicle sheets out in the next couple of days. Thanks for playing!
Per PBP VO ruling, you guys get the remaining cards in the locations. Roll for upgrades as normal, or decide amongst yourselves.
Jasan Adriel (Ally 4)
Risibeth (Ally 5)
Corpse Plate (Armor 3)
Moon Maiden Armor (Armor 4)
The Eclipse (Blessing 1)
The Healing Light (Blessing 3)
Blue War Paint (Item 4)
Breath of Life (Spell 5)
Verminbane Warhammer (Weapon 4)
Wyrmsmite (Weapon 3)
Keen Spiked Chain (Weapon 5)
This is in addition to, or in lieu of, the 'everyone chooses one card'? Also, I had thought that the reward was that we each choose a card of any tier (up to 5) - was I confused about that?
Of the choices listed above the only upgrade that interests Radovan is:
Have an option or two with the level 4 item or ally, but would prefer level 5 spell or ally, as long as it doesn't leave someone with no upgrade.
Will base hero point on which card I add. :)
Talitha will spend a Hero Point on the Power Feat:
Deck Upgrades:
Boon?
Also, I had thought that the reward was that we each choose a card of any tier (up to 5) - was I confused about that?
The standard WW reward is for each player to choose a type of card, then a card of that type is drawn randomly from the box and added to the upgrade pool. (You don't get to choose the level, in other words; it's a random pull.) In the WW siege scenario (per Discord discussion), receiving the remaining location cards replaces that standard reward.
Spend hero point on power feat: [x] 7 hand size.
Card upgrades:
hero point spent on Item card feat
Ally 4 taken for deck upgrade
Save hero point (2 hero points now in reserve).
Use Blessing 3 upgrade to replace The Joke with Master of Masters.
Thanks for running, BR, and good playing with y'all!
Summary
Kess: Power Feat, Ally 5
