Katia, you should have control of your token now. The only one I don't have set up yet is Abigail

We hope to still see you around Abigail, and if you need to drop or anything I understand, just keep in touch with me. :) Good luck to you and your wife! Also for everyone--Roll20 board is set up, when you first log in I will give you permission to control your token.
A large man dressed in clothes of a noble starts shouting out orders. "Okay listen everyone! I don't know who any of you are, and you don't know me. For all we know we could be here to kill each other! Let's do this he easy way and everyone put down your weapons, gather around me, and explain yourselves!" "You know me Horgus." the dark haired woman replies. "My leg is badly injured, I can't move." Horgus puts a hand irritably to his forehead and shakes his head. "Well! Who here is a healer?! Hurry up and fix her will you?!"
Lethander: You cannot decipher anything with your Arcana at this moment. Your mind is still really hazy and your are not quite sure how you got down here. With your perception, you see seven others around you. Two Tieflings are beginning to rise from the rubble. One of them you recognize as Quinn. The other is unfamiliar, and is shouting and announcing himself. Aside from them, you see three women laying among the rubble. One is Katia, one is a long blonde haired woman, the other has short dark hair and is adorned in leather armor. The latter woman is in a sitting position and seems to be tending to a hurt leg while she eyes everyone cautiously. Along with the Tieflings and women, you see An elf man cradling his face in his hands, and a larger man in nobles clothes standing against the cavern wall, rubbing his head. Aside from all of the other survivors, You notice a very large spider about 30ft away from you. It is sitting motionless.
It will not be necessary to use. If you are at work and cannot access it, just be very descriptive with your combat choices :) As a side note, it runs through the browser and is accessible without needing to download anything, So i use it at work haha
Roll20 is up and running for the most part. I will be fixing things up, giving permission for tokens etc. Please note I am not to be judged on how pretty these maps look, I am just tossing them together for some basic visual aids haha. I'm fairly new to roll 20, so if anyone is more experienced with it and has tips or suggestions, they are welcome :) Here is the link! https://app.roll20.net/join/256740/SyFo1Q
Suddenly... all of the PC's see black. You have no recollection of what just happened. All you know is that you are now in a dark place. Your ears are ringing and you are plagued with a terrible headache, and you are having trouble breathing. After a few moments your ears stop ringing and the sound of rocks clattering, coughing, and moans of pain along with the smell of dust become apparent. If anyone feels around, they can feel rubble all around and their bodies covered in filth.
Good question Lethander! I forgot I haven't gone over that yet. I was thinking Roll20 if everyone is ok with that. Does everyone have a Roll20 account/know how it works?
Right, makes sense. Never picked up paths of the prestige. :)
Riftwarden is the same as planes walker right? I'm not missing anything there?
Go for it Lethander
I'm just going to let you guys interact amongst yourselves for a little while, and I will insert the opening post when I feel the time is right ;)
To answer concerns with healer getting boring, I do pride myself in adjusting the difficulty in fights if it seems the party is just walking over everything without breaking a sweat. I'll make sure you are kept entertained, don't you worry ;) And with my little opinion to toss in: Paladins are great healers, but you can't beat a life oracle in my books ;)
A day passes by, and it is finally time for the Armasse Festival to begin! The opening ceremonies take place at Clydwell plaza at noon, just west of the cathedral. As fate should have it, the PC's all arrive a good amount of time before the ceremonies begin and are able to get a great spot near the cathedral's facade.
Abigail: Everyone you question about a place to stay pretty much tells you the same thing. Everywhere is completely booked, save the towns largest inn, Defenders Heart. You are warned that the inn is aware of its demanded availability, and they tend to jump up their prices for the festival.
We will keep playing as long as the players keep it alive. :)
One quick note I want to bring up about my DM style. I tend to roll here at my desk with physical dice a lot of the time as a DM. It's a bit faster for me and I think the secret rolls add to the feel most of the time. I think of it as the equivalent of a DM screen for a tabletop game. If there are ever crucial moments happening such as someone is on the verge of death, I will always "roll on the table" and use the thread macros so everyone can see that the rolls are fair. I'm hoping you will trust that I run a fair game even if I don't roll everything out in the open, but if you dislike this style, please let me know. :)
Gameplay thread is open! Like I said I have quite the busy day, so that will probably be the extent of my posting today, but we will get things in full swing tomorrow. At least this will open up introductions. :)
To date, four crusades have been launched against the demons of the Worldwound, and while all four have had varying degrees of success and failure, none have yet driven the armies of Deskari, Lord of the Locust Host, from Golarion. The beginning of the fourth crusade was marked by a dangerous new addition to the demon armies- Khorramzadeh the Storm King. Scholars of the war are divided as to whether or not the Storm King had been ruling from Iz all along, or if he was but the latest arrival in the region. Regardless, the Storm King’s first assault on the border resulted in no less catastrophic an event than the cracking of the Kenabres wardstone. The ferocity of this attack caught the crusaders off guard, but in the end the wardstone held. In response, the church of Iomedae called for the Fourth Crusade. This crusade proved to be the longest and most grueling of the crusades yet, lasting 15 years and ending more as a result of wartime exhaustion than anything else. The demons lost very little, and in the years since this crusade’s whimpering conclusion, morale along the Worldwound’s borders has reached an all-time low. For several weeks, excitement has been building in Kenabres—Armasse is coming! Traditionally an opportunity for scholars and priests to come together to study the lessons of history from wars past, since Aroden’s death, this holy day has become more about training commoners in weaponry, choosing squires, and ordaining new priests. Over time, Armasse has grown to encompass jousting competitions, mock duels, battle reenactments, and other festival events. In Kenabres, the festival (which takes place on 16 Arodus) is eagerly anticipated, for it provides distractions from the horrors of being on the front line of the war. The PC's have arrived in Kenabres just a day before the opening ceremony of the Armasse festival, there to participate in some of the competitions and perhaps even join the crusade (for coin or for glory).
To get the ball rolling and wet your appetites a bit, I think I'll open up the gameplay thread and just give a quick opening post to give you all a chance to explain why your characters are in Kenabres. (I'm going to assume you all at least skimmed through the players guide.)
Hey everyone! Sorry to keep you all waiting so long to get this going. I'm probably unfortunately going to have to push the start date back one more day. I had a day full of unexpected meetings pop up last minute. (This doesn't happen very often) A little bit about myself: I live in Utah so I am on MST time zone. I usually post quite frequently from work in the early morning to late afternoon, and typically get pretty busy during the evenings between my son, gf, etc. I've been DMing pathfinder for a couple years now. Currently running a tabletop game of Wrath of the Righteous and love it so much I decided to run a PbP also. I'll do my best to make sure this is a really enjoyable campaign for everyone. :) Thanks for joining everyone, and again, I'm really sorry for the delay on getting started. Looking forward to it!
Hey guys! Sorry weekends tend to be a bit difficult for me to post. I planned on Friday, but since we had to pick up a couple replacements I plan on starting full swing on Monday. To answer a couple questions: Drawback is not required, but if you take one you can take an extra trait. If two players pick the same campaign trait such as rift warden orphan, I t will be okay I will make it work. :) I look forward to starting a great campaign with you all soon!
Full guys, thank you again.
Okay guys, I picked up a Human Wizard (Abjuration) and a Tiefling Magus. We will start as soon as everyone is up and running!
Alright guys like I said this was gonna be a hasty recruiting as I am just filling in a drop out. I already see some awesome characters, but I'm going to take Zakon and Lethander. Congrats! The link for the Campaign is Here. Thanks to the rest for your applications!
Party currently consists of: Tiefling Paladin (Melee Damage focus)
Anyone in here still interested in playing? A slot opened up
Also a heads up, we are all ready to get started, so I will be picking applicants fairly quickly
Hey everyone! Had one of my new players drop out from this game before we got started. I decided I'm going to run a group of six, so I have 3 more slots open. Character Guidelines:
If you drop an Ability Score to 7 or lower, I would like you to have an explanation of how it fits your character to be that low. I will be posting quite frequently, I would like players who can post at least a little bit every day. Let the applications begin!
Alright everyone, I'll get a replacement or maybe 3. I think this could be fun with a group of 6. If anyone strongly disagrees, let me know! We will get this rollin ASAP
Sure thing Walter, thanks for the heads up.
I did one last little touch after you read that post Katia, lets add the spoiler in there also :)
Welcome everyone! If everyone could fill out their Class/Levels field in the format I did, it would be most convenient for me :)
Discussion thread is up!
Hey guys! Make sure all the players get their Alias properly set up with detailed info and we will get this rolling starting on 11/15/13.
Wow guys! Talk about an overwhelming number of awesome characters! Since I did get plenty of cool characters submitted so soon, I am going to go ahead and finalize the party right now. I decided to go with the following: Quinn Inktooth- Tiefling Paladin
Congratulations guys! I'll be putting up the thread shortly and plan to have it in full swing tomorrow. Thanks to everyone else who applied, you really made it hard for me to decide.
To answer some questions I am seeing, I will be picking a group by later today probably, as I already see a lot of great applications. Probably have a final decision within 8 hours or so. I'll be available to post a lot during weekdays, and I would like a group who could post at least a little bit everyday. About the Lion Shaman, I don't really care how out of place your character is. Just the more out of place they are, the stronger I expect your backstory to be explaining why they are there. Riftwarden PrC would be great.
Yes Ixos that would be fine
Arcane Savant is great :)
Hey everyone! I'm looking for a group of players interested in playing in a Wrath of the Righteous Play-by-Post. It is a great Adventure Path focused around the Mythic system. If you are interested in playing, please post an application in this thread with your character you would like to play. Character Guidelines:
If you drop an Ability Score to 7 or lower, I would like you to have an explanation of how it fits your character to be that low. I will be posting quite frequently, I would like players who can post at least a little bit every day. Let the applications begin! |
