Hello, everyone! Welcome to the game. Before we officially begin, I'd like to go over a few important instructions that will ensure a smooth and enjoyable experience for all:

1. Please sign up for the game on the provided Sign-Up Sheet (linked above) and enter the essential information your GM needs for your Chronicle: Player Name, Character Name, Organized Play Number, Character Number, among others. We will use the RPG Chronicles website for this purpose.

2. We will be using Google Slides for Slides and Encounter Maps. Please take a moment to fill out the required information on page 2 of Slides and Encounter Maps (linked above) for character and minion tokens, and marching order. Additionally, we will use Google Sheets for Macros. Make sure to update the Macros (linked above) on any available Sheet between Player 1 to Player 6 for your character’s basic information, core stats, and skill modifiers. This will help us start the game promptly.

3. To facilitate easy reference, ensure your character's stat block/header includes the following information: Hit Points (HP), Armor Class (AC), Saving Throws (Fortitude, Reflex, and Will), Perception bonus, and Speed.

4. If you need area templates (burst, cone, emanation, line) for your spell or aura, they can be found on pages 3 to 7 of the Slides mentioned earlier. You can copy and paste them onto the Encounter Map (linked in the initiative tracker during combat/encounter). These templates are already adjusted for the Encounter Map we will use, so no resizing is necessary. They are also available under my alias GM Frost as Area Templates.

5. Please be active in the game and make a post at least once every day, and once on weekends. As per the Organized Play Foundation Community Standards and Expectations, we adhere to the principle of "Explore, Report, Cooperate." Therefore, any non-consensual character-versus-character conflict is strictly prohibited. Before including fellow PCs in damaging effects, players must obtain their consent. Violating this rule may result in Infamy points and potential consequences for your character's playability. This rule does not apply in situations where a character is under the control of an NPC and forced to attack a fellow Pathfinder.

6. During combat, I will roll everyone’s initiative checks and we will use a block initiative system. PCs in the active block can post their actions, which I will usually resolve in the order they are posted. Players can choose to delay their actions until after another character has acted. For secret checks like Recall Knowledge, Seek, Hide, and others, I'll roll them behind the GM Screen. Please avoid looking at the GM Screen. Players will roll saving throws.

7. To make things clearer during Encounter Mode, please use the following symbols when labeling your actions on your post: ◆ for a single action, ◆◆ for a two-action activity, ◆◆◆ for a three-action activity, ↺ for a reaction, and ◇ for a free action.

8. To ensure that everyone feels comfortable and safe throughout our adventure, we’ll be using a safety tool called the X-Card to help maintain a positive gaming environment. The X-Card is a way for you to indicate if there's content in the game that makes you uncomfortable or if you need to address sensitive topics. If, at any point during the game, you encounter something that you'd like to change or address, you can: (a) simply include the phrase '[X-Card]' in your post, and I'll address it promptly; or (b) if you'd like to discuss it privately, feel free to send me a private message here on the Forums.

9. In play-by-post (PbP) games, regular posting keeps the game flowing smoothly. If you're unable to post for any reason, simply let us know, even if it's just to say you're unable to contribute at the moment. However, real-life obligations always take precedence. If you anticipate a prolonged absence, please inform us in advance. While I prefer not to "bot" or control your character in your absence, providing botting instructions can help keep the game moving in your absence.

10. Above all, remember that the goal is to have fun and enjoy the game together! :)

Thank you, and let's embark on this exciting adventure!

I have six sign-ups for this game. It looks like everyone has dotted in already. For now, please fill out the Sign-Up Sheet, one of the sheets in the Macros, and the Slides linked above while we wait and before the game begins on the start date. Additionally, declare the provision you wish to take. If anyone has GM glyphs, this is your chance to share them with others for extra hero points.

You can also begin introductions in the Gameplay thread to get it out of the way. Additionally, Paizo is giving away gift vouchers, so make sure you include your email address when you sign up. We will be rolling in advance due to the nature of our game (which is PbP) so that I can report any winners for this table before the deadline (June 17). Kindly roll a d20, and on a 19 or 20, you will win the gift voucher.

Give me a 19 or 20, please: 1d20 ⇒ 15

Sorry, I thought Norbwald's pbp was going to finish up by this weekend, but it turns out not to be the case, I'll get sorted whom I'm bringing and fix forms and stuff within the next couple hours.

Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for your patience.

No problem. We'll proceed once everything is in order.

Whee. Level 1 Centaur Bard ready.

Looks like we'll be playing high tier. What mentor boons if any do we have available?

Three glyphs here. I'll check to see if Ami qualifies for mentor boons.
door prize: 1d20 ⇒ 13
And she'll take the default item(s)

Ami qualifies for the Horizon Hunter Rugged Mentor Boon - which she now has.

Miss Sorbet will stick with the healing potion.


GM Screen | Mentorship and PC Level Bumps | Pathfinder Provisions | Downtime | Area of Effects Templates | ◆◇↺

We are at high tier, which means Dakon will have a level bump for this scenario. Anyone with mentor boons will benefit Dakon. Kindly reflect the same stats in the Macros.

Verdant Wheel

M Centaur Bard 1 HP 9/17| AC 18 | F +4 R +6 W +8 | Perception +8 (Darkvision)

Macro's and Header updated. (Will add a second mentor boon if anybody lists one)

Also I realized I was on the wrong character # so swapped over to here. Will edit previous slot's name after we fall off the front page in gameplay.


I've got emergency dental surgery coming up tomorrow. My posting may be slow/irregular the next few days.

Noted on this. Hope you have a fast recovery as well.

Awarding a hero point to Ami for using them effectively in the scenario. Others may have been a bit lucky with their rolls that they don't need to use them.

I know a guy who can help. ;)

Please don't let Tieri help. If you've met him in another game, you know he's ... a bit too enthusiastic.

Hope everything goes well and you recover quickly.

I will be traveling from June 26 to July 3. I expect to have computer access, but feel free to bot Miss Sorbet if needed. She will Explode if she can hit at least two enemies without damaging any Pathfinders, and Overdrive and attack with her halberd (which has only 5 foot reach because she is tiny) otherwise. She can also use Searing Restoration for healing when needed.

Do we participate each to each round? Or should be choose a character to compete for each round?


GM Screen | Mentorship and PC Level Bumps | Pathfinder Provisions | Downtime | Area of Effects Templates | ◆◇↺

Only one PC per round.

We are close to the end of the scenario. I would like everyone to check your details on the Sign-Up Sheet linked above.

Everything looks good.

Miss Sorbet puts what she learned improvising to good use, earning 2.4 gp.
