Pathfinder Bounty #10: Hillcross Roundup

Game Master Anna_1817

Welcome everyone, and thank you for joining!

This is my first time running as a GM, so I ask for your patience if things get a little bumpy. A huge thank you to GM Tiger for your support!

- If anyone has feedback, comments, or concerns, please feel free to PM me at any time.

- I am in the UTC+2 timezone and will post at least once per day—possibly more. I would appreciate it if you could try to check in and post once every 24 hours as needed.

- You can find the RPG Chronicles link and the slides in the header. Please add your PC's token and details, and ensure your PC's stat block is in your profile.

- Please keep all posts and communication across all channels at a PG-13 level, and be both positive and inclusive.

- Finally, please label all three of your actions.

I look forward to playing with you!

Hello!

Slides are "view only" at the moment.

I will keep it PG and use ◆◇↺ to communicate game terms.

Hi, all.

Thanks for running, Anna. :)

Sorry, the slides are now editable by everyone!

Anna, does the advaenture take place during the warmer or colder months?

@Aangustus I would say it's late spring.

Thank you.

Aangustus is wearing his (padded armor) traveling clothes. His cold weather clothing is in his backpack.

Pathbuilder character sheet for Aangustus.

I love Aerial Boomerang!

My 3-year experience in PbP is that teammates have a hard time "remembering" your initial throw (1 round = multiple weeks), so, I got into the habit of marking it directly on the map with a line connected to my token, so you can aim your "return" catch line.

Willing to help facilitate that if/when we get there.

=)

Thanks, Rainzax. :)

I have learned how to create emanations (for kinetic auras) on Google Slides, so learning how to implement Aerial Boomerang on Slides is on the 'PBP to do list' for me.

Hello all,

Checking in here with my PC.

I will also use ◆◇↺ to communicate game terms.

Hello! Jumping into the 6th slot. You got this, GM!

Wow, this is weird. I can’t paste my avatar into the slide. I’ve done this countless times before.

Did something change?

I used to drag it.

Now I save it as a "jpg" and "insert" it.

I think something changed but I don't have that type of technical skill to understand "why" or even "where"...

I have discovered that right-clicking and trying to paste something you copied (from somewhere that is not within the Slides, but "control+v" does successully paste what you have copied from (outside of Slides).

I rebuilt Vadim as a monk so I'll need to update his statblock...

ah, rainzax is here... so I PANCH YOU again! :)

oh, 5 glyphs to share. I'd say that I've run/played this before but I don't think anyone here hasn't... Friendly fire is fine as long as it doesn't drop him (if it does, he will panch you afterwards!) :)

I have neither run or played this, lol :), looking forward to it.
Can you give me a pointer regarding the glyphs, do you bring enough together for everybody to start with 2 heropoints?

@VB That is a nice tribute to your friend. Honored to have VB at the table!

That worked. Thank you!

For GMs who are players, each GM Glyph translates to one extra hero point for each player at the table for a maximum of 2 at the start. I have 5 and Rainzax has 3. So yes, every player starts with 2 hero points.

This is only for GMs who play in a table. If you're the GM, you don't get to share them :)

GM'ing scenarios gives you 1 table credit. Basically, 1 table credit is equal to a 4-XP adventure. So:

Bounties/Series 1 Quests (Q1 to Q11, Q13) - 1 XP; 0.25 Table Credit (TC)
Series 2 Quests (Q14-27) - 2 XP; 0.5 TC
Scenarios - 4 XP; 1 TC

I have neither run or played this, lol :), looking forward to it.

Thanks. Fun fact -- he looks EXACTLY like the icon. Just minus the facial hair! :)

Thanks! Waiting for the last Player and then we can get going.

Starting to get frustrated, Vadim stalks up to a dino and glares at it. "Get back into pen or I PANCH YOU!" he growls, shaking a fist at it...

Intimidation: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 4 = 24

LOL!

Nice to have signs that indicate friends are still around after they have passed on. :)

Go Vadim!

@Mychal If you have the time, could you add your stats to the slides? We might need them soon :)

I didn’t use Crafting in the previous round.

@Rijika, you are correct. It says "in the previous round", but in my head, it meant "in any previous round". Sorry!

Yeah, it’s a small but vital difference :-)

@Mychal Please add your stats to the slides.

Mychal,

Looks good to me

so where in Canuckistan are you, Mychal? From your description I'd guess ON or along the east coast since it gets pretty humid there in the summer (lived in T.O. for 3+ years in the 90s)

Yep...smack dab between TO and Ottawa...

@Mychal Thank you! I hope an improvement in temperature is in sight.

I know that Glorzia has taken cover, but do I have LOS on her or the other dinos?

@Rijika See answer in the Gameplay thread!
