Defenders of the Bronze Oak

Phaendar - Nimathas

After wandering from town and forest in Nimrathas, Pallicea moved to the village of Phaendar to try to escape memories of the raid, but also protect the villagers from having to suffer a similar fate.

She has served with the small militia and Chernasardo Rangers as a volunteer for two years protecting travelers and villagers as best she can.
The past few months she has taken note of the artistic glasswork of a relatively new resident named Pfvaarsk.
Eventually, the caravan stopped at the small town of Phaendar in the Nirmathas as a final stop for Pfvaarsk. There, he picked up a job repairing windows and making glassware.
The elf lived and worked among disparate guerrilla groups after leaving the city of Tamran and traveling through the Fangwood to the western villages of Phaendar and Cavlinor.
The past month he has been spending more time in the western reaches as rumors of mountain passes growing increasingly hostile with giants and goblinoid raids.
During his last visit to Phaendar he stopped to purchase a few glass vials to aid to his collection. He plans to return with his bear-friend Ursab in the next few weeks on the return trip.
After several days of travel, the heavily injured Aeliexes had arrived at a small village: Phaendar.
He stumbled and passed out at the gates due to loss of blood. He was dragged inside and brought to the home of Pallicea the hunter of Erastil. There, he was nursed back to health, leaving a nasty scar on his throat.

In the past week, the return of the traveling elf Celembriar brings news of the Mindspin Mountains to the west. A band of heroic adventures from Belkzen, Lana the Oracle and a dwarf with a metal hand, an elf alchemist and halfling cavalier riding a celestial tiger were able to topple the Storm Tyrant and now possess the Cloud Castle seen flying near Ashpeak and heading northeast.

Your team is summoned to the Magnimar Lodge in Varisia.

As you wait, rain patters outside the windows of Venture-Captain Sheila Heidmarch’s study.

Feel free to introduce yourselves for now (or just dot). We'll start on the 25th

This will be the discussion thread.

This game will be part of the Official Play by Post Game Day 6, Beginning August 25th, 2017. Seats are available, up to 6. If more than 6 enroll, a lottery will be held. This is a CORE table.

As a couple reminders now that we are underway:

1) Please keep HP and AC status updated in your profile tag
2) I will roll group init and track actions in order. If you want to post ahead, feel free. I may move you or allow you to change your action if someone else goes before you and alters the playing field (blocks a charge lane, is injured, creates a pit, drops your target etc)
3) Miss is always low (20 or 50) on [1d100] if miss chance applies
4) Avoid posting dice rolls without some narrative or dialog.
5) If you cannot post daily (due to travel/holiday etc) let me know so we can bot you. I will likely not post on Christmas or New Years, so I will not expect others to. Enjoy time with your families instead!
6) Finally, if you want to try something a little off base...ask me. Our goal is to have fun. Sometimes the odd actions are the most memorable. :-)

You join your fellow agents in the gladiator city of Tymon at Smine’s Weaponworks, famed smithy and clandestine Pathfinder lodge run by the dwarven Venture-Captain Holgarin Smine.

I am starting *CLASSIC* recruitment for running a PbP Pathfinder Society adventure, #6-20 Returned to Sky (level 7-11 only). This will be an open recruitment.

If you have played other PFS scenarios, then PbP is the same but running with play-by-post rules. This adventure will 'lock' in a PFS character for about 8 weeks if posting daily.

For players not familiar with PFS or posting here, I'll post a few guidelines.
You need a legal *CLASSIC* PFS (non-core Pathfinder Society) character. PFS information is here.

Post your legal character. (Paizo People --> Aliases).

You must be able to post about 1-2 times per day for 7-9 weeks (exceptions can be arranged ahead of time and for holidays).

I do not require your previous Chronicle Sheets unless you have unusual races or boons. I assume you will be honest with me and your fellow players. If a question of an item or race comes up, I may ask to know where and how you got said item.
Maps will be posted through google docs. Please make sure you can access this service if you sign up.
Recruitment will open now and will close once I have enough players to start (probably this weekend). I will use a random lottery if we get more interest than slots.
If there are any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Please post your character's profile with level and class for consideration. I appreciate good back stories and party RP. I will list alternates if we have any no shows.

After your recent travels from the Far East, a few of you meet one of the Grand Lodge’s outbuildings in Absalom.

“I have no love of puns,” announces a peeved Kreighton Shaine, the Master of Scrolls in the Grand Lodge, “Yet it cannot go unremarked that the Overflow Archives have begun living up to their name.”

The pale elf gestures across the library’s stone lobby toward a pair of shut double doors from beneath which water steadily seeps. He is only one of the midnight visitors bearing witness to this disaster.

Next to Shaine, Paracountess Zarta Dralneen stands with folded arms, glaring at an initiate whose hair and clothes are utterly drenched. All three speak at once, but Shaine’s shrill voice rises above the din.

“Magical shenanigans in the archives are prohibited, especially this soon before the Grand Convocation!”

“Let us prioritize,” Dralneen suggests.

“Are the artifacts within the vaults in danger?” “How should I know?” Shaine barks back.

“This delinquent initiate— what was the name? Wormell?”
“Virml, sir,” replies the sodden Pathfinder.

“Virml says he sneaked into the archives on a dare,” summarizes Shaine, painfully emphasizing the initiate’s name with scolding disdain.

“Presumably, he thought the holdings would be harmless. Instead, in his naivete, Virml triggered some dormant curse or other. So, yes, thanks to Virml here, the archives and the vaults below continue to flood, threatening all the books therein.”

Miserably, Virml holds up an armload of soggy manuscripts. “I salvaged a few, sir.”

Sighing, Shaine leads Virml towards the stairs. “Take them up to the scriptorium. Start making dry copies.”

Then, turning to survey the rest of the room, he continues issuing orders. “The remainder of you should wade in there and plumb the origins of this deluge. Stop it, if you can. I must report this debacle to my colleagues and begin organizing the cleanup.”

Abruptly, he seems to notice the paracountess for the first time. “What are you doing here, Dralneen?”

Zarta smirks and shrugs. “Unlike you, Shaine, I love a good pun.”
