I've been taking a really hard look at the games I'm in and I think I need to bow out of this one.

With the robot grappled, Cera moves on the Android and slashes at it with her Kukri. for for
Cera's eyes get a cold gleam as she steps towards the collector bot and slices at it with her Kukri. "You will not harm my new friends" she says to it in a deep, cold, hard voice. for
Thanks! Baby is perfect. Looks like I need to level for the boss fight! Will try to do that this weekend
My wife thinks she's in labor right now. I probably won't post for the next week. Please bot me as necessary.
Cera hesitates for a moment. "Yes... yes, I will go back with you."
"Thank you Joram." Cera says. "What now?" She asks no one in particular, maybe even herself. Do things go back to normal? Do I keep hiding behind the protection of Khonnir in this town?
"Are the nanites still in him?" Cera asks, looking at Khonnir.
Sorry for not posting today. I had a work-over-the-weekend project that exploded into an all nighter. Expect a post from me tomorrow or Wednesday and bot me until then
Cera follows close behind Khonnir. Wanting to be seen as one of his rescuers and also not wanting to be far from her protector. "He hasn't spoken yet... I am concerned for his health." she says to the council
"This is Khonnir. I think we should take him back soon."
Cera tells Khonnir to sit down and leaves her waterskin with him, then joins Morgan at the next door, kukri and shield at the ready.
"Can you tell us what you were doing here? Can we help you with anything? They would like to see you safe back in town." Cera adds.
I imagine the GM is still sorting out some pretty big life changes and will eventually return to a more regular posting rate. Or decide to call off the game. In the latter case we could look for a new GM. However I am willing to wait a fair bit longer
"I am glad we found you," Cera says. Smile! Humans like that as a way to express positive emotion she reminds herself and sticks a smile on her face. The expression looks a little unnatural, like it might be unfamiliar to her.
"Let me help you out if there" she says and reaches to pull him up
Cera moves to the banging pod and tries to open it
Cera waits around the corner a moment for her new friend to get into position. Then when she hears the battle cry she turns the corner and advances, with much less stealth, instinctively dropping into the familiar cold fury of battle. She swings her kukri, aiming for vital parts of the drone. for for
"That is what I joined you to do,"
I am still here
Cera nods. "I see. What a curious place. We will return in the morning, you say?"
"Val tells me you have been looking for Baine. She sent me to help. He's been gone too long and I am worried about him."Eager to disengage from gambling Watanabe talks to the woman, "You are correct. How do you know him?" As Watanabe talks he will explain what the party has experienced so far. Cera blinks at Watanabe. How much to say? she wonders to herself. "I was a house guest of his, lately."
The GM is supposed to make a check for her Disguise attempt. She is changing minor details only, so her total bonus is +9, and she has a trait to let her ignore the -2 penalty for disguising as a different race. If it were up to me I would take 10, but the rules say the GM makes the check.
So I think that either you took 10 for 13 or didn't even notice.
A human-woman with red hair steps out from an alleyway and approaches you on the way to the casino. Her face is an emotionally blank slate as she speaks. "Val tells me you have been looking for Baine. She sent me to help. He's been gone too long and I am worried about him." And for myself. If someone discovers me without his protection... People's faces were hard to read, but it seemed to her that she had been given more and more strange looks since she had been disguising herself without the help of his magic. As the party seems neither to reject her nor give a reply of any kind, Cera falls into line, a little confused. She seems uncomfortable at the casino, and settles in to leaning against a wall or pillar and watching, having none of the vouchers for herself.
GM:
every day, to try to avoid prejudice, Cera disguises herself as a human woman. She does this with a disguise kit and, thanks to a trait, does not take the -2 penalty for trying to appear human. Since she isn't trying to look like someone else, I would think she also gets the additional +5 for only making minor changes. The rules for disguise say "The Disguise check is made secretly, so that you can't be sure how good the result is." But otherwise I would take 10. Just so you know, GM A human-woman with red hair steps out from an alleyway and approaches you on the way to the casino. Her face is an emotionally blank slate as she speaks. "Val tells me you have been looking for Baine. She sent me to help. He's been gone too long and I am worried about him." And for myself. If someone discovers me without his protection...

If we go 6 ways it's 125 each. I'm game
I think Cera here is up to date. How shall we introduce her? Maybe the wizard's daughter finally persuaded her to overcome her fears and come help? The tavern would give her some anxiety though
Okay, as I update my character I'm finding a few little things here and there. For one I am upgrading to 20 point buy, which is nice. Now my questions:
Right! This character's previous GM allowed me to modify Savage Technologist so that it modified the Unchained rage in the same way it modified the original barbarian. I.e. untyped bonus to ranged attacks, reflex saves, and AC instead of untyped bonus to hit points and fortitude saves; I guess it is up to Letsuna if I can use the Archetype that way or not.
I will be surprised if the GM doesn't allow the Unchained barbarian Android interaction. I will be less surprised if he doesn't let me port the savage technologist archetype back to unchained barbarian. I don't remember what I had planned but I think it was suboptimal; TWF with a melee weapon and a gun is what this Archetype is about and that sounds kind of bad for a barbarian. :shrug: I will hold off on leveling up until I hear from the GM, though. If he lets me keep as-is then I just adjust for his starting parameters vs the previous GM's, but otherwise I'll have to change Archetype or possibly even class.
I have never seen the "if you can't pay the price" FAQ; where is it? I believe Oracle/Barbarian is a popular combo for exactly the reasons you state are not possible. EDIT: I suspect you are confused, I checked again and Lame Oracle + Barbarian is definitely a well-known gimmick. Unchained Barbarians give an untyped bonus from rage, not a morale bonus. This character's previous GM allowed me to modify Savage Technologist so that it modified the Unchained rage in the same way it modified the original barbarian. I.e. untyped bonus to ranged attacks, reflex saves, and AC instead of untyped bonus to hit points and fortitude saves; I guess it is up to Letsuna if I can use the Archetype that way or not.
Hello hello! I will be your other frontliner. I think I may have played with a few of you before. Regardless, this character is from another Iron Gods play-through that petered out pretty quickly. It may take me a day or two to level up. C3-RA is an Android that has been disguising herself as a human to avoid prejudice. She doesn't get out much (for reasons I'll have to go and look at notes and previous posts to find) so she mostly stayed with whats-his-face and his daughter. Happy to answer any questions, and I am sure I will have some for y'all soon enough.
I am going to bow out of this game. Please remove me from the gameplay thread.
Cera retaliates by swinging (and missing) at the beetle.
FYI I am attending a conference this week. There are even a few events for it the next two evenings. Please do not hesitate to bot me, though I will post when I can.
Cera steps up to the most forward one (blue) and swings at it with a mighty blow.
Cera looks around inside the cavern, oblivious to the need of the rest of the party for light.
"Thank you. I certainly cannot afford your wares, though.”
Cera eyes all the stuff the party can't afford. "Can you give us any of this? To help us in our task?"
Cera nods, then remembers she's supposed to say something. "Thank you, Val." She heads towards the door, but turns around before leaving. "I believe we will find your father."
Cera opens her mouth to answer, hold on, humans like greetings and formalities. "Good to see you again, Val. We are here to ask what your father might have told you about the caves. We are going to go in after him."
Between packing tonight, traveling, and doing con related things, I will be busy with GenCon from now until Sunday. I don't expect to be caught up to speed until Monday or Tuesday. If any of y'all will be playing organized play at GenCon and want to meet up, send me a PM! I enjoy the tables much more when playing with a friend. I will continue to read posts through the RSS feed and may drop in for a post, but please bot me whenever it becomes necessary.
Cera's Actions, if she is up:
Cera opens the inner door and runs into the other room to see the robot.
Are you okay, GM? You asked us to post once a day in recruitment but it has been over a week since we've heard from you.
Cera bursts into the room and looks around.
I am on vacation this week. I will be keeping up with my games off and on via RSS, but please do not hold anything up waiting for me. There should be botting instructions in my profile. Do not hesitate to use them to move things forward.
Cera disregards Tam. Having no idea what his hand signals mean, she drops into a dead sprint toward the house, or as much of one as she could muster. That could be her friend. Or at least she thought that Val was a friend. And she was pretty sure that friends help each other.
