On the edge of the land known as Numeria, the Pathfinder Society has operated in secret under threat of death from the region's ruler, the cruel Black Sovereign. Venture-Captain Dagur Hawksight hopes that a meeting with the recently-sober monarch will allow the Pathfinder Society to operate openly and study the alien technology contained within Numeria's borders, but other forces have their own plans for the region. The PCs must ensure that the meeting between Dagur and the Black Sovereign goes off without a hitch, thwarting acts of treachery and sabotage.

Need a day or two to get my slides together - thank you for your patience.

There is no Background Info for this Quest which has not already been given in the opening post - instead, I leave you all to interact with the NPC for whom I am using another avatar. A cute parlor trick I'm sure you have seen before, but just wanted to make sure is clear.

We have the green light to kick-off Gameday VII, so let's go!

Kind reminder: Please keep in-character dialogue in the Gameplay thread, and out-character discussion in the Discussion thread. Cheers.

I have one glyph. I'll give an extra hero point to Emoubu Since he's level 4. Do we only have three players?

Zaza will prepare false life as her Arcane Evolution spell for the day.

Sorry not understanding what you are driving at with daily preparations and pbp macros

As an oracle my spells are fixed I can cast concordant choir and heal and searing light at whatever level as signature spells (although a level 1 or 2 searing light doesnt work) but I have fixed spell slots not spells. pbp macros I am not understanding at all

I will give scouting as my exploration activity

@ Laspeth Soguchi, click the link above to learn about Daily Preparations.

The "PbP Macros" are located in the Campaign Headers - it'll ask you to fill in some basic info for your character, to assist in helping GM to run the game. Please check that out when you get a minute. Any questions here.

@Laspeth - You'll want to rename the "Player 2" entries into your character's name in both places on the sheet - you are like 80% done! - as well as click all the "To GM?" skills you'd like me to roll for you for secret checks (people usually avoid clicking their Untrained skills due to the high risk of critical failure...)

@Emoubu - still waiting on your Daily Preparations as well

I am seeing your critical success.

Can you link me to the post with the other success you rolled? I am not seeing it...

Oops nevermind. I thought I got a success on the very first one behind the spoiler but after checking it's actually only an 18.

Hey PbP folks!

I am headed to the hospital to have my first kid, and so my posting may be a little spotty today and the next few days. Some of my characters have better botting instruction than others, so I apologize in advance for that. That said, I may be able to poke in here and there at reduced posting capacity, probably requesting assistance with Maps, etc. To the games I am running, I will do my best to prioritize those first, best I can.

See you all on the other side.

Cheers!

Oh Wow. Hope all goes wonderfully well.

Local storm took out hospital internet just as I was intending to post last night, gunna see what I can do this morning.

Laurel is a healthy boy patiently awaiting our discharge. He has a freakish strong neck, and is capable of making bird sounds! My partner and I are recovering from a very long birth with several complications, but fully on the mend.
