My home group just completed the Starfinder Society 2e play test materials. It is awesome! My Starfinder GM and I just launched (hehe) a live game offering two Tables for the new SFS2e season just last Saturday. We had both Tables filled and we have sign ups for the next 3 games that we posted on Warhorn. I've been waiting for 2nd Ed since 1st ed hit...lol. I absolutely enjoy the Fluff of Starfinder, but the mechanics of 1e....
I agree with Sparks on every point, although he may be a bit more judicial. This game has been extremely frustrating. I absolutely enjoy playing Dirk, and I definitely enjoy everyone's characters, but I am desiring a bit more progress. Especially after a year of Game Play and we are still only 2nd level. This is certainly a posting rate issue. If everyone only posted twice a week this game would move at a much smoother pace. I agree every day is unrealistic for most folks. (Besides I would be in big trouble if all my games posted daily!). Every game has its rollercoaster ride of progress. Unfortunately this particular game has been more lateral than progressive. My 20 credits
Our family thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. We are preparing for that eventually also.
Hope everything works out for you guys! Easy does it. We're here. We've settled in to our new homestead (although still got some pesky boxes to do).
I really wanted to use that response....
My sincere apologies but I will not be joining this Campaign at this time. This is our busy season at work and I am in enough games at the moment. I appreciate the invite and acceptance. Considering I am in a game (or three) with most here, I shall see you there. Thank you again.
Good to see you, Captain! That would also be viable, as yes he is extremely passionate about Gol-Gan historical sites, which your new Island is certainly high on his list to explore! I hope he will be a valuable asset to your crew! I can't wait to sail under your command, Captain.
Ok. I am caught up on the Book 4 Game Play Thread. Looks like you have been clearing the Island while preparing for holding your celebration gala in a month. Presumably our characters would be met most likely either at that Gala, or depending on time table, perhaps at next visit to Port Peril to sell/resupply. Although, being from Mediogalti Island, our characters could have ship wrecked on the Island of Empty Eyes ...
I was just going with half WBL (62,000/2=31,000gp). I am planning to Scribe Scrolls a bit still and purchase more fun stuff, since ABP rules. His Spellbook is filled with his given Spells. I may still purchase a few more though. Yes, Poleihera is pretty good. Have waited for the most opportune moment to try it out. I haven't finished filling in his Prepared Spells as yet. He is Caster first, Melee second but he should be able to contribute both ways. Haven't decided on an eye patch yet.....
Hello All! There seems to be a call for Pirates! I have attempted to play this AP 3 times. None of which got out of the sludge of Book 1! This would be a refreshing way to play this one! As everyone here is a bit familiar with my preferred play style (my bad), I went with a Prestige that I've never tried (and I really like on paper). May I present to you Arkhan Silvinesti! (Ubiquitous applause here) Any questions, concerns, comments or math errors please feel free to let me know. Thanks for considering me for this most opportune moment....
Hello All (officially)! I have been on these Boards since...hmmm...one moment.... ....looks like my initial PFS character was 2013. So, about that long. I've been gaming (mostly D&D), since 1982. My older cousin needed two more players for his Homebrew, so he gave my twin and I "The Hobbit", told us to read it by end of Summer and pick whom we wanted to play. We started that initial foray into Adventuring that July. I played "Gandalf". I've been a Wizard preferred player ever since. I've played through every edition until 4th, then my home group switched to Pathfinder1e. Enjoyed an embarrassing plethora of completed Campaigns, APs, Modules. I've completed all 10 seasons of PFS1e. I have been quite fortunate to have been part of many past, present and (fingers crossed) future PbPs. I am currently playing in....one moment.... apparently 15 PbP. I also play (along with my poor wife) Starfinder Mondays on Foundry, along with Abomination Vaults on Tuesdays and Strength of Thousands on Fridays (which I DM). I like gaming. I am a chef by trade. I have been in the Food Industry (don't do it) in one form or another since age 14. My bad. After much resistance on my part, I finally went and got my Culinary Arts degree at age 40. It felt good. This is my 3rd attempt at WotW. I understand the way PbPs work. I accept the possibility of either outcome with each and every PbP that I submit a character to. I try to do my part in each game that I've committed to. As I am a bit old hat at this, I have really narrowed my DM preferences over the years too ...lol. Welcome aboard to those new and great to see you again for those not as new .. Looking forward to much Devil inspired shenanigans! Thank you ! Mephistopheles
I was doing rather well; only refreshing every hour (or so)....
This 'bout ta git real! Probably just like that MTV show, but, less deviously scripted...lol
I only find myself checking the Recruitment every so ... often...lol. Mephistopheles is basically ready, save for some minor purchases, including spells to copy.
A bit of his recent history building off his Campaign Trait. Backstory: Standing, casually sipping from a fine crystal goblet, a tall, muscular man with red skin, cloven hooves, and black hair and horns raises said goblet to his lips. His blue eyes crinkle in amusement at those gathered together.
The mischievously grinning devil offers a wink to his newest group of malcontents.
In the small town of Eldridge, a once-peaceful community was rocked by the clandestine activities of Mephistopheles, a cunning devil who sowed seeds of sedition among the townsfolk, promising power and riches in exchange for their souls. The church of Mitra, a bastion of hope and morality, became embroiled in a fierce battle against the seductive allure of his dark influence. However, his efforts were thwarted when a group of vigilant paladins, tipped off by whispers of sinister gatherings, descended upon the town. Armed with holy light and unyielding resolve, they caught Mephistopheles in the midst of his manipulations, ready to face judgment for the chaos he had unleashed. The saddened blue eyes of the Devil drip a lonely tear.
The devil shrugs.
The tall devil roars a disturbing laugh at that...
The Devil is in The Details.... I do feel a bit Wicked for the extension.... Going to be working on his Background today (and pick spells and equipment)...
Here is my Work in Progress.... I noticed the Theme ...lol. Still working on him, but any questions, concerns, comments are welcome. Thank you!
Oooo! A 24 hour deadline for a Masterpiece of Eeeevvviiiillllll... Sounds like a regular Sunday night! Thanks, Storyteller Shadow!
I feel like I may have the time to draw up a fellow to be perused....
Congratulations on your Adventuring opportunity!
This is an All Star grouping of great folks that I have/am enjoying gaming with! We are traveling today for holiday so, unfortunately I will need to...hesitate-ly withdraw. Happy Gaming All!
I have a Kobold Alchemist in WotR. He is the level-headed one with all these Do Gooders...lol. It is true. Kobolds are cool.
Definitely sending you and your family our thoughts and empathy. Our little ones are special to us!
Speaking from experience having lots of applications is great, it's also kind of a nightmare. I see what you did there....
This seems ripe for a Wizard .... I need to come up with a great evil wizard laugh....
Much appreciated for the opportunity! Grand adventuring!
Much appreciated! I have the bare bones rolling about in my head already...lol. He is looking fun! I am entirely certain that his Ancestry may cause some heads to swivel, necks to crack, knuckles getting a bit dusty; but, he is a peaceful, patient, probably a bit particular druid Gnoll ..lol. Also this Ability will certainly go a long way! Patience of Nature (Ex):
An ancient guardian does not gain wild empathy at 1st level. Instead, at 2nd level, an ancient guardian adds Diplomacy, Perform (oratory), and Sense Motive to her list of class skills and gains an insight bonus equal to half her druid level on such checks. This ability replaces wild empathy. You may have reservations at seeing his Cha score, but, that goes away as he levels...hehe! Most charming Gnoll druid ever! Thank you!
I said that thinking PF2e ... complications rising from my lack of memory of how that works in PF1e..... Sounds like a challenge! EDIT! I found this on d20? Also, while I am at it. I have been going back to this Archetype.
Thoughts?
Going to force me to go Gnoll.....
The long lost call to dig has been sounded! Roll that beautiful bean footage!:
Hmmm....I may have just the idea.... Thank you for running!
My Muse will not silently pass by this Recruitment without my providing it's submission concept.... Halfling Swashbuckler (Mouser ) with the Vexing Defender Campaign Trait. His favorite pastime is hunting giants. Big bullies! I should have his Profile up this week. Thank you for running!
It took me a while but I found it! Purchased the Evolving Destiny boon for our Samurai. I will be retooling a bit today. Thank you.
My sincere apologies but I will be removing myself from this game. I wish everyone a good game. Thank you.
That was a fantastic story, GM Aldizog! Nicely done! I have my Abomination Vaults game tonight but if I can return serve today I shall...lol.
Rogue...hmm....I actually am a fan. I had one in a Second Darkness game. He was really useful. My Avatar was my initial PF1e character. Dorian was definitely a Rogue...lol.
Much appreciated, GM Aldizog! Agreed about the theme of the Archetype. Considering either Pharasma or Nethys as his deity. His older twin siblings are a Witch and a Wizard, so him being of Nethys seems warranted. Pharasma obviously fits the theme overtly. I like both angles, so it will come down to more research....hehe. Theodore Samuel Walden Glitterfounder Human Cleric (Roaming Exorcist) has been literally wandering the dirty pathways of The Hunt in his home land of Ustalav for years. His twin older siblings have abandoned him to his delirium, disillusions, dirty (possibly mad) rantings about routing out the Evil bit by dirty bit....
Hello All! A few memories proceeded to manifest while reading your OP. I started with Fighter, Cleric, Magic-User, and Thief and added the ones I thought were suitable... Red Book, Blue Book, Purple Book! Fun times! And... This is true. But it's not just the tracking, it's the story that it tells. My least favorite part of LotR is when the hobbits strip the Moria goblins of all their armor so they can sell it to Galadriel to buy magic items. Oh wait, they don't do that. Maybe I'm thinking of that scene in the Expendables when they collect the sidearms from every mook they kill so they can fence them and buy a rocket launcher. Nope, they don't do that either. Obviously my approach is not the default these days, but I am asking players to trust me on this. I may do some of the old-school GM'ing of "drop the right item for the guy who needs a boost". This really brings me back to the old days of the only gear you got was what you found. I really didn't start with the Store Purchases until I started playing PFS. This sounds like good old self-reliance (with hopefully spot on team work) to get through the dirt and grime, the blood and gore, the cotton candy and turkey legs! I wish to definitely submit a sucker for the pending carnage! Researching..... Thank you for running!
@ TechnoDM would this be a Homebrew or a published campaign?
Caine will look kindly on a Also, he having a Wis 8 will preclude him having any Wisdom skills.
Starting Spore War this week! Ancestry: Ilverani Elf (Cavern) Class: Barbarian (Spirit) Archetypes: Dandy / Twight light Speaker As the Kyonin Queen has called for a Diplomatic envoy to represent the Ilveranii, the Elders have chosen newly raised Twight light Speaker Idari Lucien as their representative.
I am heavily considering using Caine for this Circus Show...lol!
Well that was fast. Are we discussing concepts and such here, or will there be a Discussion Page?
I didn't need Math for my Culinary Arts degree, so not certain if you have your 5 yet, DD? I wouldn't mind a run here too...lol. I am always willing to take a challenge! Thanks for running!
I can't stop laughing, NotEspi! Thanks!
Congratulations and happy hunting. Seriously solid Table!
Not for nothing but I mentally put together a Gnome Cleric of Nivi after reading about her. Fun exploration moments.
Hello All! Already quite the collective. Hello GM Farol! Thank you for running! Allow me to begin the interview.... In order to throw their hat into the ring please provide the following information 1. Describe a character that you would like to play this adventure with, I don't need a build and a list of features, but give me a paragraph about them. My initial response would be a Caster that earns his money the old fashion way. By hiring out his Arcane expertise and if the targets tend to be rivals, nuisances, or just in the way, well, he will gladly take the coin too. For research purposes of course. 2. What is your experience with PBP/PBD? Have you played APs/standalone adventures in that format, and what have you found challenging about them. This seems a bit Age revealing...lol. I started at age 9 when my older cousin needed more players for his Red Box D&D group. He gave me The Hobbit and told me to read it and pick which character I wanted to play. Well...:
Gandalf the Grey was my inspiration for Loges the Wise. My initial Wizard (and many incarnations since). I have been involved in many PbP here on the Boards. I began with PFS and eventually branches out to non-PFS games here. I have been humbled by the many completed APs, modules, one-shots here on the Boards. My Campaign Page is yours to browse if you wish. My most recent completed AP is Fists of the Ruby Phoenix. 3. Give me the answer to the following question: You play dice in a casino, and you have a strong inkling that Nivi is playing at your table. How would you notice? (Yes I know that this is a silly question) Peering at my cards, carefully watching the other players, involuntarily tapping my foot on her chair leg, I wager All in! Good luck!
Well, that's convenient. They're all eviiiil....
Double hehe! Pharasma is at fault here....for the record... @ GM Nightmare Knight I am going to dot and delete in Game Thread so I can stop hunting...
