My plan is to be a scholar, hunter, conservationist (not mutually exclusive), and aspiring explorer. Inspired by Allan Quatermain. I'm still deciding if human or dwarf fits better but am leaning dwarf.
I should have crunch done by tonight.

Haha freshness! About the technology thing, as a Druid I can't wear metal armor and will rather quickly be using no weapons. So I will have no use for either of those and be semi opposed to using technology. But I certainly won't be opposed to others using it.
Yeah class gold! Oh wait I'm a druid I get 120g. Alms! Alms for the poor! :)
Ok, thank you Rhea. And, haha awesome I also plan on using a cane (club) we will be the most posh group to ever suavely beat robots with sticks. That's what we are doing right? :D
I guess I should ask about summoning since that will be about half of what my character is doing past 4 or 5 and I understand it is considered one of the most something (strong? time-consuming? Over-powered? Morally ambiguous? board-consuming? All of the above?) spells in the game. Are there any PbP rules/considerations for it or rules you have Rhea? I do plan on only summoning once per fight or to replace dead creatures, not to summon every round to create a horde of creatures.
Iron Gods sounds good. Without reading the player's guide yet I'm thinking of a hunter, scholar, gentleman druid with great interest in dinosaurs (saurian shaman) with a domain instead of a companion. He would go to investigate the alien stuff because of his scholarly interest and to fund an expedition to wherever dinosaurs live (Mwangi?).
I am fine with switching APs. I like my character but am somewhat disappointed with his effectiveness. I thought Grease would be more useful and I didn't realize how long the casting time is on Enlarge Person. I am fine with filling a different role if need be or staying an arcane caster. Either way I will probably have another character with an accent because that was fun :).
Albrecht, mounted on Bartimaeus, Ivar and Zamoozi. He begins questioning everyone in general. So zee man in zee tomb is from zee sky? And vee are lookink for treasure but also lookink for a vay to go to vere he is from?
Albrecht looks up at Ivar just a tiny bit mischievously.
Albrecht holds out his hand before he remembers about the bindings. Heh, sorry. Then he looks back and forth between him and Ivar listening to the explanation about planets.
Albrecht looks dubiously at Merelinda.
Assuming unconscious Klorak: So uhh crazy bird-man vants inside zee tomb too? I guess zere must be somethink good inside zen. I doubt he vould vant inside for a ring zat is special because it is not magic Albrecht looks sideways at Zamoozi and his storys of not-loot. Otherwise: for
Bird-sir it is very dastardly of you to go yammerink on about somethink vithout properly explainink yourself zen just castink spells villy nilly. Albrecht says while preparing to do something.
...and I'm ok. I sleep all night and I work all day... Sorry about being missing for awhile, catching up now.
Albrecht rubs his chin pensively. I can enlarge six at once but zen I vould be done mostly done for zee day. It vould last about two minutes for each person.
Vee could cut down a tree for a ram and I could use zee enlargink spell on several of us, but I don't know if zat would be enough for a door like zis. He shrugs.
Albrecht perks up at this Oh really? Lead on zen! Then he pauses to actually think for a moment. Wait is zis treasure closer zan zee birdman?
Whoohoo pirate treasure! Albrecht jumps up and claps his hands, with perfect dignity. Upon being kissed by Bayani: Oh hey, vell um yes. Ok zen thanks? He appears to be more surprised than anything. Yes, yes! To zee tengu or back to zee temple I suppose to, heh, secure zee booty if it vould be too much trouble luggink zee chest around.
Do vee sink zis vas a trick or just a guard and zere is still treasure? I believe somethink is down zere but if it is vorth Albrecht looks at Ivar and shrugs. You vould be zee one goink back down Ivar so I sink it is up to you.
Ach! Zat one looked like it hurt! Be careful! Albrecht shouts while cupping his hands around his mouth, you know to make sure they can hear him.
Zat doesn't sound very treasure-like, vell don't die! Albrecht waves cheerfully from the top of the hole.
I don't trust that monkey-chuckle I bet he still wants to eat us. Didn't zee map say be on zee hill at sunrise? I say vee keep goink.
Edit: Trying to communicate with Ivar not Zamoozi.
Bartimaeus Bite zee bug!
Monkeys, stupid burning frogs, spiders vat is vith zis island? Albrecht draws his dagger and moves tangle the spiders legs, Bartimaeus turns his teeth and claws on the spider approahapproaching him.
Too impressed with the frog's bright color to hear Bayani's warning Albrecht goes to touch it, to ill effect...
Come on Ivar we might not kill him, seems rather grim to bring the shovels. Oh right the treasure. :)
After getting bored of sniffing whiskey bottles Albrecht goes over to look at the map. Vat is? His eyes widen with glee Treasure map! Yes! Yes! Ivar! Merry! Julian! Lets go on a treasure hunt! He shouts with very uncaptainly enthusiasm.
Albrecht and Bartimaeus are following around Ivar as he does these things, mostly out of paranoia that monkeys will eat him. Pile of Spellcrafts if that is what's needed:
He stays with the trunk to investigate its contents with the other magically inclined party members.
Do monkeys accept gold or do we have to go collect bananas? We can also go back and dig through the wishing well.
Zat noise... Albrecht's eyes widen with horror Gods is someone doing zee ritual tonight?
Albrecht generally avoided the festivities, especially the gourd statue of... him? I don't understand we were just killing them hours ago. Now they are throwing us a party? I bet they are planning on eating us. Albrecht's paranoid self is happy to follow the others up the ziggurat to get away from most of the monkeys.
Albrecht digs about in Slitherbone's pockets.
Holding up the dagger, I found zis snakey-dagger. It is magic but I'm not sure vat it does.
Albrecht also casts detect magic and looks at the spear, sword and body.
SLITHERBONES pulls out a vial and quaffs it down.
Albrecht guides Bartimaeus all the way around the cave and behind Skele-fellow to flank with at least Merelinda not sure about Ivar. Delighted to be surrounded eh?
I'm not sure how this works so I'll put it here: Material objects not in use are always affected by this spell, while an object wielded or employed by a creature requires its bearer to make a Reflex saving throw to avoid the effect. If the initial saving throw fails, the creature immediately drops the item. A saving throw must be made in each round that the creature attempts to pick up or use the greased item. Does the skeleton have to make a save every round? It says save to use the item but earlier it says save to avoid the effect so I'm not sure if the sword is greased but he held on or if he avoided it being greased.
Hey now put zat down. Grease on the sword
Just wanted to post an apology... Sorry about that. I'll be more mindful in the future. I'm not offended in the slightest, Whoa there you guys are going to break the internet.
Right, initiative.
Albrecht moves inside and casts grease on his staff Wrath zis boney!
Albrecht jumps up from where he was leaning against Bartimaeus while Merelinda was carving on the wall. Yes, certainly lets go. Albrecht follows after Bayani.
Truly terrifyink but I doubt zey vould make such a carvink if it didn't happen, or perhaps it vas exaggerated. An army of zombies and partink zee sea... Either vay I suppose zis is vat snakey lady brought zee ship here for.
I am actually twenty and one of those no job people. I like the spoilers for speeding up the game like Ivar said and keeping myself ignorant of stuff my character wouldn't go near.
I concur zis is a door zat vas uhh on fire... he finishes lamely.
A rock bounces off Albrecht's noggin just before the panther leaps deftly back. Ow! Blast zis cavern! Albrecht looks around the room, avoiding the corpses, not spending much time near what he has no knowledge of he quickly arrives at the door. Stopping next to Ivar, So vat do you sink? I imagine vatever is beyond von't be unoccupied. just open it and see vat happens? Kick it in to give zem a nice surprise? A big surprise. He grins up at Ivar as he says this. After zee others are done of course.
I blame the whippersnappers and would like them to get off my lawn and get a job :)
Albrecht follows Bayani, riding next to Ivar. She fell to our combined assault. Zee sorceress blasted it with magic while our priestess shot it and Bayani here gestures pelted it with zose um... circles? I believe he dealt zee killing blow. I found none of my spells were of particular use he stops for a second and frowns in thought/concern so I charged in vith Bartimaeus he ruffles the panther's ears.
She managed to create zee darkness right at zee end. I imagine vee vill go back and investigate ven it has faded.
Curse you dead voman! Can anyone see? Albrecht hops down and pokes at the corpse with his used to be glowing dagger to make sure she is dead. Then he spends a few moments ineffectively trying to relight the dagger. After making his way back out of the darkness, She is definitely dead or uh more dead but she managed to waves generally at the wall of darkness before she fell.
