For those of you I haven’t GM’ed before, I’ll give a bit of what you can expect from me. I don’t pretend to know everything when it comes to Pathfinder rules; most of you likely have been playing longer and know the rules better than I. Several of you are GMs and I realize you're better GMs than I. If, more likely when, I err, call me on it as you see it and I’ll fix it; I have no qualms about retconning if I screw something up. You won’t hurt my feelings as I like to think I don’t have too much of an ego. By rule of thumb, I’ll retcon if my mistake is detrimental to the PC/party; if my mistake is beneficial to the PC/party, I tend to not retcon unless I catch it immediately. I also try to give my NPCs a bit of flavor when the opportunity presents itself. My main goal is that everyone will enjoy themselves and have fun.
As a GM, I usually post around two or three times a day, sometimes more, and I try to keep things moving along. I don’t expect that much posting from my players, although you’re welcome to do so if you are able to and wish to. I’d appreciate if you could post at least once a day and once over the weekends. Real life comes first though so please let me know, if possible, when you may have a hard time posting. If I have to bot you, I’ll check your profile for botting instructions; lacking that, I’ll bot you conservatively equally considering the best interests of the character and the party. I don’t like to delay characters during combat encounters as that delay could be critical to other party members...
On that note, we are in no hurry to finish this one, as far as I know. So we can play at whatever pace you desire; if you feel I'm pushing a bit too fast or a bit too slow, let me know and I'll adjust...
As far as initiative goes during combat...for those players in the same initiative block, I usually play things out in post order as opposed to initiative order as I’ve found that moves the combat along more quickly. But if it’s a situation where it’s more beneficial to the party to play the block in initiative order, I will do so.
And if you have any questions, please ask...

Aatish is mainly a blaster / damage dealer. She is a follower of Gorum and has the orc bloodline so I assume she is a rare half-orc / half-gnome. :-D She is also my first try at a partially aggressive character so tell me if any part of her bothers you.

My schedule is going to be wierd for the next 10 days. I think I will still be able to post every day. But if not, just bot me.
Goe Lem is suspicious of everyone. Most especially snake like things and monstrous humanoids are especially untrustworthy.
If combat breaks out, he is fearless. Slowly lumbering to the the largest foe to strike it down.

We should get at least one tid-bit of knowledge about the dretch. Then another piece of info for every 5 points over.
"A successful check allows you to remember a bit of useful information about that monster. For every 5 points by which your check result exceeds the DC, you recall another piece of useful information."

A couple things with the chronicle. Tier 6-7 items get crossed off, however, we can do that ourselves.
Also, I had to forgo my day job to check a box on my Rising Star boon. Could you cross out my day-job gold and write "Rising Star - success!" in the Conditions Gained section, please? Thank you!
Actually, nevermind. They're simple fixes I can do with the original sheet. No need to bother going through the trouble of making a new one.
