Thanks again for considering my submission. Hope y’all have a fun time!

The others could somewhat see why somewhat nicknaming the group "Those Lucky Those Lucky B4st4rds" Double meaning to this one

I was thinking it tied into Calin's backstory of surviving deadly wounds from undead. But I'm starting to piece together your meaning now... :)

Now for those of us at Lastwall and forming a unit...
I'd say we were all survivors of a major attack from (Undead)
[dice=(Orcs,Demons,Undead)]1d3
while on a patrol in a unit of say 50 people
[dice=Unit Size*10]1d10+1

The attack and the number of them should of wiped the unit completely out, but we all made it back.

This lines up very nicely with what I've had in mind for Calin's backstory, so good by me.


@GM Wolf, a couple of questions for you.

Do you need anything from me for Calin's backstory and/or mechanics?

Do you have an idea how soon in IRL days the new characters will be introduced? Looks like there is an active encounter so that might be hard to estimate.

Quick messages:

1) If anyone has any suggestions, advice or criticism feel free to let me know so I can try to accomodate things better and improve.
My only suggestion so far would be (if the rest of the party is on board) for you to roll everyone's initiative at the start of a fight. Having players roll their own works fine around a table, but in practice in PbP it takes at least a day

I'm good with this suggestion. Knowing the initiative order right away seems like it would be helpful.

I don't have other suggestions or feedback at the moment.


@GM Wolf: Trying to wrap my head around the current party and who is being added.

From what I've gathered, the current party is:

Valiard Tessar, rogue; played by ZetaGilgamesh
Lectrum, fighter (Eldritch Guardian); played by Phantom Genius
Visayn, rogue; played by Mustaparta
Drake Windfall, ranger; played by BloodWolven, aka the GM

And, you've decided to add (so far):

Kai Yashin, brawler/cleric; played by LDDragon
Imrik Farstrider, omdura; played by Malinor
Calin Milotti, paladin, played by Eletido (me!)

Do I have that all correct?


Hey all, I've been invited to the Discussion thread by GM Wolf.

I submitted Calin Milotti, an Aasimar Paladin. Looking forward to playing you all and figuring out how to bring Calin into the game.


I've been considering pivoting my submission, Calin Milotti, to a Paladin. I will very likely do that.

EDIT: I will do that. I'm aiming to have a full character submission by ~10pm CT.


At the shout from the young man, Cerrus' eyes dart from the the goblin woman to the left side of the room. He sees the fire and those little fire creatures.

Initiative (Perception): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13

Resa/Zeldones: Since I was looking at the map, I added tokens for you and placed them on the map. Not sure if the placement matches where you'd like to be.

You were suppose to subtract the lowest roll, so your final numbers were:

12, 13, 10, 7, 8, 9, 13

☆☆☆
WOW! Go ahead and reroll.

Ah, I misunderstood. Even when I read the instructions a couple of times. :face-palm:

Re-rolling (I believe the rolls from GM Wolf were for Malinor):

4d6 ⇒ (1, 5, 1, 3) = 10
4d6 ⇒ (5, 2, 1, 6) = 14
4d6 ⇒ (4, 6, 4, 4) = 18
4d6 ⇒ (4, 1, 6, 4) = 15
4d6 ⇒ (2, 6, 3, 2) = 13
4d6 ⇒ (6, 4, 5, 6) = 21
4d6 ⇒ (1, 1, 5, 5) = 12

9, 13, 14, 14, 11, 17, 11 => 17, 14, 14, 13, 11, 11

Oh, Eletido, you're supposed to drop the lowest I'm pretty sure.

I did, didn't I? https://paizo.com/campaigns/v5748p75ivmy3/recruiting#19 My lowest was 8.


@Netkin: on the slides, I just saved a copy of my character image and used the “Insert … Image” option in Google Slides.

@GM Wolf: Is there guidance on how to roll HP? I don't think I've seen that yet. Thanks.

Ellaeaanda & Ardoinel: I placed Cerrus on the map slide. BUT, if that's not where your characters would sit, I'll just move Cerrus near you two.


We could take screenshots of the map from roll20 and then post them somewhere. A public image in Dropbox or similar would work. I’m happy to facilitate that if that would work.


FYI: I’ll be AFK most of this weekend. Check in as I can.

Is using roll20 for maps and images good for everyone?

Works for me!

It's in my character profile, down at the bottom.
Does it cut off? It ends at 'Special Abilities' for me. https://paizo.com/people/Zeldones

It's up now. Incidentally, if you want to linkify a URL, use the "url" code:

[url = <insert URL here> ]text[/ url]

Eliminate the spaces to make it work.

I read the backstory. Sounds like a cool tie to Cerrus background of family ties to Breachill. Works for me.

Netkin does have a healer's tools.

Nice! And looks like Ellaeaanda has that as well.


@Delta, I'm making a few minor changes to Cerrus.

I swapped Regalia for Tome, as that better matches my head canon for Cerrus at the moment. I do plan to take Regalia later so that's a possible hook for loot or character development, etc.

I also didn't fully read the Ancestry Paragon variant rule and missed that we gain an extra ancestry feat at level 1. I haven't finalized my decision, but currently leaning toward General Training to grab Bon Mot.


Aha! I kept looking around the forums look for a 'join this game' button or something. Thanks for sharing the tricks of the trade!

I'm kinda surprised I didn't notice a ninja-delete. I was refreshing pages a lot last night. Sorry Paizo servers...


@Delta: I noticed that I'm not listed on the Players & Characters tabs. Did I miss a step getting set up?


Sharing a party cheat sheet I quickly put together. Thought it might be helpful since we are talking party composition & roles. And apologizes if I've gotten the role incorrect. It's only what came to mind after scanning your character for 30 seconds.

- Resa Dermade, rogue; DPS & skills
- Ardoinel Oreflame, oracle; blaster
- Zeldones, magus; DPS
- Ellaeaandra, investigator; DPS & knowledge
- Netkin Bigpot, alchemist; DPS/healing
- Cerrus Falto, thaumaturge; DPS & skills

So, as other folks have pointed out, we are light on tanky/'full' martial characters. We also might be light on out-of-combat healing. I'm not advocating for anyone to completely change their character, just pointing out where we have some gaps.

I don't know what Eletido had in mind for a character?

Oh my fault for being unclear. Cerrus, the Thaumaturge, is my character.


Hey Delta, thanks for the invite. I'm pretty new to PBP games on Paizo. Do you prefer we setup an alias to post as our character?


@Delta Arena: do you have a deadline in mind for submissions?


Interested.

Heh, thought I could edit that post. Still getting used to Paizo's forums.

Submitting Velus Macer, a Human Precision Ranger. For archetype, I am considering Beastmaster, Cleric, or. Herbablist.

Pathbuilder link

Backstory:
As early as he can remember, Velus’ dreams have been marred by fire. Nightmares of homes burning, farms losing their crops to uncontrollable wildfires, and entire villages consumed by unquenchable infernos. As a child, Velus saw fiery pain around every corner. As an adult, Velus became all-consumed with these disastrous nightmares. And yet, no one believed him that these dreams of his may come true some day. So, Velus left Breachill to get away from the judging eyes of the townsfolk.

Despite leaving Breachill, he didn’t stray far. Velus created a new home just outside of town in a distant part of the Crimson Tide Wood. Over time, he became quite the huntsman and started supplying Winthrop Finney with furs, and any extra meat was given to Renatta Gilroy to help feed the town’s poor at the Lamond’s Lament. Day after day, week after week, Velus followed the same routine: check and re-bait the traps, a short trip to town with furs and meat, forage for fresh berries and mushrooms, and, most importantly, look for signs of dreams coming true.

One night not so long ago, Velus saw, for the first time, a recognizable city in his dream. To his horror, he saw Breachill utterly consumed by fire. Velus is now all-consumed with a new purpose - to save Breachill from destruction.

I got back into TTRPGs during the pandemic, specifically playing a homebrew PF1 campaign. I'd love to learn PF2, interested in any AP.
