Brenna, copying Vadim some, hangs back but also draws her sword out. "If anything bursts out of it, I'll take care of it, yes?"

Brenna looks up to see the log and sighs. "Dastardly little fiends! Let us hope that the acid does not make the trap work as is! I think everyone should step back, yes?"

Sorry for missing game last few days, dog had puppies, been running around like a chicken with my head cut off trying to get new job applications out there and fiance needed me to help out with a bunch of thing and kinda crashed hard. Catching up now!

Breena, tensing up and hoping it isn't a trap, approaches the druidic dwarf. "Do you believe it to be dangerous, friend Fjeor?"

Perception: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 1 = 16

I'm good with equipment so far, no need for new armor/equipment just yet.

"Hmm... Those are very pretty and, no doubt, quite expensive. I agree, we should do our best to return them to this Lady Argentea or what her name may be." Looking back to Marianna, she raises an eyebrow.

"Most odd that. I fear they must be up to something most foul. Once we gain our bearings, should we march on?"

"Most odd. I had been led to believe it was get but here? The cruelties of unseat instead. I would not put it past the Winter Witches though, friend Hassan. They are most cruel."

Looking to the carriage, Brenna steps over to inspect it.

Perception: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 1 = 13

I'm cool with Discord. Roll20 gets more iffy since I am in 4 games on it right now.

I'm getting more and more fed up with Paizo's site. I cannot access it from any computer but I can by phone no issue. WTF?

Sorry, was super busy with birthing puppies until just a short time ago!

Brenna, having been on guard already from fears of the possible fey or worse in the area, moves to the closest zombie. "Pharasma have mercy!"

Attack with cold iron longsword: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19

Damage if a hit: 1d8 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

As they draw near the carriage, the cold wrapping around them like some cruel and grasping hand, Brenna slowly unsheathes the cold iron longsword, keeping her eyes and ears open for anything uncouth trying to get the drop on them.

Perception: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 1 = 16

Looks like it'll be 3 hours then! Yay!

If you're awarding XP, then yes but be smart in how and when to deploy it.

If you're leveling by decree, I personally say nix it.

"Well met, Vadim. I am Brenna Ylvadottir of far-off Asleifar." The powerful looking Ulfen walks to the man and pats him on the shoulder. "May we have little need of your ministrations, but I welcome you to the adventure at hand."

Turning to all the others, she grins. "How goes all of you? Shall we bring glory to our ancestors and ourselves by ridding fair Heldren of it's little problem then?"

Sighing, Brenna crosses their arms. "Be it on you if they capture you in their magics. But if all of us are ready to set off, we should probably head on, yes?"

Working!

Also, can you guys see the maps yet? they should be in the campaigns info.

Sadly I get nothing.

I ask about woman because my wife wants to play a all girl game..

Go for it!

lol, question. are there any REAL woman that play this game? all i seem to have met where guys. Just wondering lol

My fiancee plays, my ex also plays and I've met a few at various Pathfinder Society events. Online though it does seem to be 95+% male though.

Brenna, overhearing parts of the conversation with Fjeor and Marianna shakes her head. "Take it from me, friends, these creatures be as foul as any beast from hereabouts if what Yulnn says is true. Better to see them felled quickly than risk their cruel spells taking control of you or worse."

Finally able to get on. My access to the site has been buggy all day. Rahr!

Giving a sharp nod, Brenna steps towards the door, giving the bear Tuum a small pat on the head. "For those brave enough to face down these wicked creatures of the north, shall we meet at the town's center after all have retrieved those items that they may use in their defense?"

Just started working on my end as well. Most peculiar.

Brenna reaches out and takes the sword and map from him, giving him a solemn nod. "We will make haste, friend. You rest well so that you may recover and protect your Lady Argentea soon." Standing up, she turns to those gathered.

"Any other questions for this brave man?"

Nodding, Brenna moves closer to the man. "Do you remember, Yulnn, where you were in the forest? The faster we can find the trail the more likely we are to find your charge and see her safely back to town."

The detailed rundown of the google docs thing lol

Oh that? No problem! Happy to help. I thought you were talking about my telling Rorgar sorry XD

Thanks for all the help brenna

You're welcome? Not sure what I did ._.

Sorry for the confusing remarks there, Rorgar, I meant to scold Vadim not you about insulting Yulnn.

"Well met, Rorgar. And sir, please do not insult one of my countrymen by scolding him like he is a child." Brenna huffs some before listening in to Yulnn and sighs.

"It is as we fear then. And White Witch? By Cayden's chipped mug, Yulnn, you should consider yourself blessed by the gods to have come away with what few injuries you have."

Looking to Vadim, Brenna raises an eyebrow. "It is fine if he answers a few more questions, yes?"

Open Google Docs, then click on "File" then "New"

There you should see "Drawing"

Click there. Then you click "Insert" and "Image"

PROFIT

@Rorgar - You could be coming into the apothecary as well having been hired by another councilor or whatever from Heldren.

@Vadim - Yeah, that seems the most logical place for you to pop in at.

Brenna pauses, letting Yulnn have his outburst before approaching. "Hail and well met, Yulnn. I am Brenna of Asleifar, one of your countrywomen. The kindly councilors of this town have asked us to look into the most strange of occurrences, that of the winter forcing itself months too early on the forest near here."

Giving the man a small tap on the shoulder, Brenna nods. "We hear tales that beasts from the north have made their way here, beasts that took off with your charge. You did the honorable thing in making it here, Yulnn. Bringing us this news may well rescue your charge and bring honor to you and yours. Please, what did you see?"

Smiling, Brenna motions for her compatriots to walk towards the Willowbark Apothecary. "Should be right over here, I hope." Finding it in short order, Brenna pauses before the door and takes a deep breath.

"It's been some time since I've seen one of my countrymen. I would ask you all take deep care to not bring dishonor to him. He failed to protect this Lady Argentea, that is dishonor enough. If possible, try to congratulate him for facing down whatever befell him and his charge."

With that, Brenna pushes the door open and steps in.

Brenna waves at Arya as she moves off to inform the council. "Well, does anyone else know where the Willowbark Apothecary is? I, for one, am eager to talk to this Yuln Oestag."

"Hassan, your presence does not offend at least I. Stick near me and none shall harass us. I hope."

Turning to Arya, her eyes going slightly large. "Yuln Oestag? One of my countrymen, then? He must be here same as I: work. The man must have been ambushed as you claim and to claim beasts of the North are in the forest you may well assure yourself is true. Ulfen people do not tell stories for our failures."

Fiddling with her Hex Nail, she nods at the councilwoman's offer.

"I speak for myself alone in this matter, though I hope by my cracked mug these others join me, that I will assist. As Hassan says though, mayhaps we meet this Yuln Oestag?"

"I don't see anything else holding me back. If there be freezing death, at least send the Ulfen in first, I say." Brenna laughs again, though she deeply hopes she will survive the coming tide of chaos.

Can't say that I have.

EDIT - How about the Heldren Heroes?

"Aye, you are correct Fjeor. I am Brenna, daughter of Ylva of Asleifar. Health and happiness to you my new friend."

Turning to look to Lady Marianna, Brenna smiles widely and waves. "Marianna! Good timing! Ja, the cold is sticking worse than an Irriseni Witch's breath. Cayden's mead warm us, I hope it passes soon lest worst things happen. Did you hear, friend, they rescued someone from the forest recently?"

Does anyone else have trouble getting into paizo.com? I can only access my games over the phone today

I've been having issues most of the night and morning as well. Posting this from my phone.

Ok, so, I still need to finish my character. I was planning on a Sorcerer. Does that work with what we have now?

I think it should work fine, I say play what you want, we might lack some knowledge skills but it's not the end of the world :)

Knowledge and skill it seems. Still, not mandatory I hope. Play what you want is my thought.

Brenna walks over to her compatriots, crossing her arms and huffing loudly. "I come south with stories of warm suns, green fields and gold aplenty. Now it feels as if the Crown of the World is coming here to call it home."

With a deep sigh, she looks to the dwarf and Qadiran. "If this keeps up I may just well need to pull my furs free and don them!" Rubbing her hands together to warm them some, she grins a little. "Still, a little cold never hurt. Well, maybe not this far south at least." Letting out a deep-from-the-belly laugh that only an Ulfen can do, she shudders slightly. "Have you two heard of the man they pulled from the forest? He seems most pained I hear."

i should of mentioned earlier and im sorry. but you all have lived in heldren for a couple months.

Doesn't really work with me back story, but I will find a way to make due. Ideally, Hassan has just arrived with the advent of the strange weather, and might hook up with anyone who is investigating that phenomenon.

Looks like we got a working Gameplay thread. Hurrah! See you over there. Look forward to the game with all of you!

We can have it so you and I met on your trip to Heldren. My character is a caravan guard and somewhat of a glory (and gold) seeker, so they could meet readily that way.

Alright, maybe we should talk about our characters and how they know each other. It doesn't quite seem right to me that a bunch of people suddenly get together at the last minute and are then expected to go off on an adventure (unless they are Pathfinders or something official, of course). We're in Heldren and we all have some reason to be there, so maybe we all met on the road going in, been traveling together to get there for a while, something like that?

Thoughts?

Currently at the doctor's, I'll hop in in a moment.

i have tryed, it wont let me create the thread at all. i might submit a help inquiry to see if it can be fixed because as you said i really dont want to have to play in discussion unless i have to.

Go for it. Very odd indeed.

Well, Brenna is in Taldor to try and make money to send back/tack back to the Land of the Linnorm Kings. She's orphaned and has a younger sister so she feels honor bound to do something to support her. Being fairly rugged (what with being an Ulfen woman and such) she headed south to join the Ulfen Guard, got turned down and had to take a job as a caravan guard. Could have met any of you that way.

.

if anyone is interested i have a character sheet in PDf that you can fill out and use. i swear its a game changer in my eyes. if anyone is intrested let me know. i always have EVERY book on PDF ill be willing to share if you want or need some. just message me on skype

Shoot me the character sheet, I'll take a look at it.

May I introduce Brenna! Surprising how much gold she's left with at the moment since you're allowing max starting wealth. I'll go ahead and post her story and stuff here then.

Born in Asleifar (Linnorm Kingdoms) in 4687, Brenna was for much of her youth a typical Ulfen girl. This changed when she was 12 as her father and older brother died at sea. Having to step up to help provide for her younger sister, Brenna trained and trained with her father's bastard sword. Hiring herself as a minor caravan guard, she knew she would need to do something more to raise her far younger sibling.

Brenna stands in at 5'8" with a very good tone build to her that belies her inner strength. Wearing a modified set of Ulfen clothing fit for the far warmer climes of Taldor, she also wears her leathers and Linnorm skirt (armored kilt) nigh always. She has a seepening tan, a side effect of her being where she is. Her hair is burnt red and worn in a single long braid that falls to the small of her back and her eyes are a striking blue in color. Her nose is slightly crooked, having been broken but never properly set in her youth, and a small scar from the bridge of it to the middle of her left cheek can be seen.
