[Gameday XIV]PFS #9-04 The Unseen Inclusion by GM Colin

Game Master Colin_Mercer

Please dot and delete to get yourself added to the game. We will be using Google Slides as maps and RPG Chronicle for this game, and they will be added when we get closer to the game start date.

You can post your player name, character name, PFS #, and faction stuff in here if you want. But since those things will be entered in the RPG Chronicle /game listing Google Sheet anyway, I think some OOC introduction to what your character can do would help everyone getting familiar with the teammates better.

Here's Charity Treesinger, a pretty standard bard.

(GM, can you please remove Garsita from this game? I switched my characters signed up between your two games so that I would be more in subtier.)

Which subtier do you (everyone with a level 3 char) want to play? High or low?

For subtier 4-5 I have two level 4 characters (monk 3/cleric 1 or paladin 4) available.

For subtier 1-2 I can bring a level 1 sorc, a level 1 investigator or a level 2 ranger (if I pull her from the special and send a level 1 char there instead).

Edited to add the applicable rules:

(...) Starting with Season 4, scenarios were designed for six characters and contained methods to adjust for tables with four players. When the APL of a table is between two subtiers (like APL 3 for a Tier 1–5 scenario), a party of four characters must play the lower tier without any adjustments for party size. A party of five to seven characters whose APL falls between two subtiers must play the higher tier with the four-character adjustments found throughout the scenario.

In the fringe case where there are no PCs that are high enough level to have reached the subtier level (such as a party of six 3rd-level characters), the group can decide to play the lower subtier.

So Ed Birnbryer and I shouldn't bring a level 4 or 5 char if you want to play low tier.

I would prefer lower subtier. Here is a lvl 3 bard as well....besides I am a dirge bard

Ok, lower subtier works for me. I switched my character submission to my lvl 2 Ranger.

Then as long as Ed Birnbryer brings a lvl 3 (or lower) character to the table, we are good.

Google Slide link is up. There're some character information that I would like you guys to fill in (Initiative, Perception, Sense Motives modifier, and the three saving throws). Also, please import your character token into the Google Slide and determine your marching order.

If any of you are mostly phone poster who has difficulty manipulating Google Slides, let me know. I will try my best to help you.

Please fill out the RPG Chronicle sign-in sheet, as that is the system we use to report the game to the VOs, who will report them to Paizo. If you feel uncomfortably using the RPG Chronicle sheet, you can DM me your contact and character info for receiving chronicle sheet, and I will handle the RPG chronicle for you.

Signed up on RPG Chronicles, filled out the slides and put my token in.

I'll do the slides soon, the unread discussion activity had disappeared before I noticed it.

I don't know how Renardagnan does on higher tier, so lower is fine with me.

Just realized that two of the players never dot in......Let me try to DM them

Sorry about that. Since we are going on the low end, i will bring a level 3 Witch

Sorry for the lateness, I'm joining now

No purchases. Saving up for a Handy Haversack.

I will be traveling this weekend and probably unable to post. Please bot me as needed. The use of spells or consumables is fine if it seems like a good idea.

Where to go team?

GM Colin will not be able to finish this game.

Would you like to continue with a different GM, or end the game?

We're just done about the first 1/3 of the content, and we have skill check investigation without map coming up as the second 1/3. I don't think it would be too difficult for a GM to pick it up from here.

I'm not hearing any opinions from the players on how to proceed. Since this is a relatively straightforward convention scenario, if I don't hear otherwise, we will find a new GM to move forward. Hopefully it will be only a day or two.

I would say let's move forward.

If there is someone that is available, it is fine with me as I have not played it before. If no one is available, I could run it but would need the scenario and a day to read up on it before proceeding. (If that does not mess it up for the others with one less player)

OK, that's enough players interested in continuing to be a legal table. (because I'm interested in continuing, too)

I've already found a GM who can take over, so I'll let him know.

Let him know even though we have a lot level 3 characters we are still in lower subtier. (And we have 2 bards!)

It's me! I'm the GM who can take over.

It will take me a little while to catch up on the gameplay and refresh myself with the scenario (I've played it but not run it) but we'll get moving again as quickly as possible.

*baton pass*
The Google Slide should be ready for you with the maps set up as background. Good luck and have fun everyone.

I am also interested in continuing!

@GM_Colin: Thanks for running so far! I hope the reason you have to stop now is nothing serious...
@Redelia: Thank you for organizing a new GM so quickly.
@EbonFist: Welcome and thanks for taking over.

I would like to continue the scenario, too.

Ready to continue and thanks for GMing so far, GM Colin!

Just an update - I'm continuing to familiarize myself with the scenario and my plan is to get us moving again early Monday.

No rush!

Thanks for your patience, everyone. We're back underway.

Despite the delay, we're still on track to finish by the end of Gameday, so, unless things end up dragging somewhere, I'm not planning on trying to rush or compress anything.

AFK this weekend. Back Sunday evening.

I'm sick and won't be posting, probably for a few days. Please bot me if needed. It's fine to use up spells or consumables or limited use things like inspire rounds.

Could anyone aid to see if that will help?

Could anyone aid to see if that will help?

It won't help.

I'm ready to resume the game

Ditto!

Back!

And we're off again.

I just want to let you guys know that, with the delay with the site being down we are almost definitely not going to finish up by the 26th. (I was probably being ambitious thinking we were going to even without the delay.)

I'll still report the game on time and will work things out with the VC's involved (I know one is keeping a close eye on this campaign...)

But, depending on how the holiday slow down affects us, it will probably be the first or second week of December before we're done.
