Annnnnnnd I'm back.

Fun Fact.
The new Universal Studios theme park, "Epic Universe"?
I scored preview passes and went 1 day last week.
It. Was. Epic. :D

Cant wait until it opens, and all the crowds and newness gets worn off, so I can go back and see it again! ;P

They did great on everything.

My dad has two days there - I think next week - that they were able to snag as season pass holders.

Given that Treppa has checked out of PbPs for the time being, we could sideline Miren’s character for a bit. Maybe, in game, give her an instruction to call emergency services if she doesn’t hear from us after the meeting. And later run with three? We were able to run with three PCs for a while before.

Hi, Josephine!

I’ve had to back out of some of my games here, but I know your pace is casual enough that I can stick around! I’ll be scarce until roughly January 17 though.

Hi all. I know I’ve been quiet. Life has been busy, and I don’t check in here as much as I used to.

I think I’m going to continue to have difficulty being here regularly and following the game, so I think it is time that I bowed out.

This has been a lot of fun, and I appreciate everything you have put into it, Tilnar! I am sorry that I am not able to continue.

I have been seated on a jury. I will need to catch up on work in the evenings. My weekday posts will be spotty for the next few weeks.

The challenge with a campaign like this one is that there are so many threads - it’s tough to pick up after a hiatus

Silver Crusade

After a relatively smooth beginning, I’ve been increasingly beset with crash-to-desktop issues. I might hold off until they’ve been able to patch a bit.

Silver Crusade

I’ve started it! I’ve barely begun but I’m already stoked.

So, I am not a modder. Heck, I was exclusively a console gamer until a year ago. And I got the game installed and modded today without a hiccup! Don’t be intimidated.

I’ll have to come back and report when I’ve played more of it!

Silver Crusade

Wishing you the best for a successful procedure and swift recovery!

Global Compliance Training is usually a bit of a hoot because Paladin. I think I mentioned a few years ago when the ethics training was so simplistic that I had Impus Major walk in and take the exam without seeing a single slide and he got 100% on it.

Well, this year is even stranger. I am now required to take a, "Preventing workplace violence" course.

I am concerned that it was added to the repertoire and entertained that I'm required to take it in spite of never having physically met any of my current co-workers...

EDIT: OK. That was the shortest training I've ever had.
"Do you work with public-sector customers, customers who work with public-sector customers, or supervise employees who work with public-sector customers."
"Nope. I haven't met a customer for a dozen years and I don't supervise anyone."
"Congratulations! Your training is complete!"

EDIT 2: On the other hand, the Workplace Violence training has no such, "Do you ever actually physically interact with co-workers?" questions. But it does have a "sensitive topic" warning, which I appreciate, except it does little good if it's required training.

Remote work prevents workplace violence.

CEOs should know they can prevent being beaten by a worker with a stick by not asking them to come to work in person.

Also works for French monarchs

I want to rage and tell you you're wrong and it's the best thing since sliced bread, but...

The game is seriously janky and a hot mess. And yet, I'll dump hours into it.

My favorite thing I did that wasn't appreciated by the game was to romance and marry Sam. Then, I wanted to see if I could marry someone else. So I romanced Andreja and asked her to marry. She said I had to break things off with Sam, so I went to him, chose the most hurtful dialogue options possible, and told him it was off. To really rub salt in the wound, I then slept with Andreja on a really small ship with Sam and his daughter on board. For like a full week. He started out angry at me and wouldn't be a follower, but by the end of the week, he had gotten over it and was neutral towards me.

The things that got to me the most:

1. The NPC animations and dialogue. I mean, I know Bethesda dialogue can be hokey, but Starfield felt like a new low. And the animations feel like they reverted to Oblivion.

2. I’m a completionist. I like to do all the side quests. New Atlantis broke me. So. Much. Filler.

If anyone reading this tries Starfield, do yourself a favor. Spend as little time in New Atlantis as you possibly can

That’s why it’s better to cook it first.

I am saddened to hear of Gary’s passing. He was a central figure in my early experiences with Paizo - a brilliant man who always stayed down-to-earth and accessible.

My deepest condolences to his family and friends. Farewell, PMG

I will admit - I am also struggling to remember what our business actually is that we need to talk to them about.

In the absence of danger, “don’t split the party” feels like metagaming. We’re in a village, so I think we can visit the people we want to visit by day and make sure we are convened to guard later on.

We don’t have anyone with Diplomacy, do we? Costin is good at Bluff, but I’m not sure how we lie past this.

If I’m looking at things right, there is no way for Tragon to engage the croc in melee, correct? And I am unaware of what is going on with Jakun?

Also, Tragon, you are under fire a ways down from the corridor. There is a large very crocodilly on the loose in that area now. We are in combat, so we will have to unspool all of these things once I have time to sit down

My bad. Somehow I knew, but then forgot, that we were in initiative.

I love Nola, but never been for Mardi Gras. Seems kinda crazy to me. I like the quiet season.

I've been to the French Quarter twice in the last few years. Let me know if you want restaurant or activity recommendations!

We may just need a nudge that will push Coyote in our direction.

Sounds like reverse psychology. We should definitely split the party.

Is the transfer enchantment device bankable for future use? Can it be used more than once?

That’s a completely valid line of thought. Best cantrip for real life.

I saw that! I’m cautiously curious, given how much staff BioWare has canned lately.

Do a coin flip, but don’t look at the result. Pay attention to which result you subtly find yourself hoping for, and go with that.

You mean how they plan to access the mine?

I think at this point that' sa fairly open secret. It's more of a race at this point. So yeah I'd say we inquire.

Without telling him that we already found a door, of course. :)

I’m not sure how we could ask that without tipping our hand.

Silver Crusade

Male Celestial Cleric of Myself 10/Radiant Servant of Me 10

Do we want to see if this guy knows about how the orcs access the mine? Or will that tip our hand?

Silver Crusade

Male Celestial Cleric of Myself 10/Radiant Servant of Me 10

Were we not going for the nonlethal CDG? Just tying them up? How confident are we that we could gag them before one of them yells?

CH-- which one do you like better?

I’m partial to tatted guy - like Treppa said, he would bring some energy to the party. You would just need to develop his motivation.

But I like the old timer too if you go that direction.

I’ll try and come up with a good segue to attach you to them. If you have any questions about making a character, feel free to ask.
I've got a few questions... Bloodlines & Black Magic is kind of a mess, and I'm getting a little lost navigating the PDF (I ordered a print copy, but it's going to take forever to show up). Mainly, though, I want to make sure whatever I build a) fits into the "vibe" of the game, and b) fills an unoccupied slot in the party. I've got a couple potential ideas, but I'm not sure how viable they are. Any particular builds you're looking for?

The vibe is basically ‘secret world beneath ours’ . There are a lot of strange things out there, and many of them have sharp teeth.

I agree the book is a bit of a hot mess, but we’re all adults here. We can kludge the rules as we go.

As for unoccupied slot? That’s harder to quantify. If you wanted to try a more street kid/rogue/trap monkey sort of thing, I think those skills could come in handy

Nace is an investigator with bonuses to trap finding/disable device up the wazoo.

I think there are lots of directions a new character could go.
