Evindyl moves and takes a shot at the newcomer ...

TKP(2of3): 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 41d6 ⇒ 4

Afternoon Team;

Any perceived gaps that need to be filled?

4d6kh3: 4d6 - 1 ⇒ (2, 4, 2, 1) - 1 = 8
4d6kh3: 4d6 - 2 ⇒ (2, 4, 4, 5) - 2 = 13
4d6kh3: 4d6 - 1 ⇒ (5, 1, 1, 5) - 1 = 11
4d6kh3: 4d6 - 4 ⇒ (5, 5, 5, 4) - 4 = 15
4d6kh3: 4d6 - 1 ⇒ (2, 5, 4, 1) - 1 = 11
4d6kh3: 4d6 - 1 ⇒ (6, 1, 4, 4) - 1 = 14

Wow, that sucks. Profoundly.

Well I obviously want to be a flier, but like THE flier.
Not sure if a 2X template is the best approach ... or a synthesist.
What level is the group now?

Az-rin?

So if Wrath is kind of a total bust, could I please try to make this work?

Let me know if you're interested in any additional submissions SB, I enjoyed playing in your campaign previously.

Maybe next time :)

I would actually love to work on a hook to make Dark Sun, well, a little less dark. There's so much that I loved about it, and it isn't that I hated the survival part, but there was a tone to it that just wasn't enjoyable.

ALways down for psionics and elans and desert bugs tho.

I will fill in whatever is missing, can someone advise me as to the classes that they currently have?

CAN
NOT
WAIT

May the Force be with you!

Let me know if you're interested in any additional submissions SB, I enjoyed playing in your campaign previously.

Feel better!!!

Ironically, having "thrown in the towel" and asked for help, I have had a breakthrough and might know how I need to proceed. I will still take anything anyone can share because I love to see how other folks do their builds.

@Cev - Classes? Surprise me. A Fighter/Cleric/Rogue/Wizard is fine or bring in one of the "newer" options (stated as if I'm a grognard), it's all good. I just want to give the players options.

@Sphen - I appreciate the suggestion. I have the level 4 pre-gens, now that you mention it. I will give them a go.

I think I owe you some characters ... let me know if you still want them.

hows it going GM

It's going super well ;)

I just today threw the last thing over the wall at Elton to finish my build, so I will no longer be the roadblock. Just thought I'd post that for everyone.

Well, I do need to think a name ...

So the stomping feet, pouty toddler, anti-playtest, insurrection thing is over?
Everyone is okay with a little sociogamepathic experimenting?
We can all go back to being excited about character building?





This is ... happening?





Because if it is still happening, it would still be cool for me if we could do 3rd party psionics along side dynamic magic. Would love that actually.

Yep, it's still happening. Both GM_Panic and Lapyd are willing to play. :) still making a Wilder?

That was still the concept I had in my head, yep.

Other than as the character's PP base, will charisma matter? Will we be stuck dungeoneering or will we be able to spend time in Waterdeep also?

This is probably one of my favorite adventures of all time, just seeing this post makes me want to read it again! I wish everyone the best of luck, and I think I'm actually NOT going to be impertinent; I'd love to be included, but I also want to respect the process.

Good luck!

Well these posts are helpful; forgot what this power level was like.
Not that level really matters here, but what level is everyone?

I know the recruitment said level 2 start ... and I am going to beg for non-gestalt.

I think I thought there would be more chatting ;)
I am happy to chat
I love chatting

Azrin is an elementalist shifter, which basically means he wants to be an air elemental when he grows up. Why? Because I'm obsessed with flying and this particular archetype in this particular AP will not only allow Azrin to Wild Shape into an air elemental at 4th, but with Mythic Wild Shape once we're Mythic, he can take that form as often as he wants.

Kinda cool, or I think so

I am poked
I will create a profile for Azrin shortly

AZRIN (Ranginori) - Elementalist Shifter - Touched by Divinity

What are we all chatting about today?

Cool, that's a great synopsis. Happy to take Touched and I can put together something divine

oh no :( someone is having trouble adapting?

Again, I really think that's being looked at against its rigidity, not its purpose. I think the intent is:

What if kinda sorta some or a few of us were kinda sorta roughly available around the same time to maybe read and post slightly less asynchronously than average Paizo PbP.

I don't think there's a dropped commandment
I don't think there's a "thou shalt"
I don't think there's punitive ejection for missing the window

I do think there's an effort to raise the bar a little, and I do think that's a good thing.

Drake, you seem to have a handle on what's where; do you know what campaign traits are missing at each table? I can play to that.

Have a Wilder I will post soon, incredibly cool.
Yes, he can fly. He aslo has a psicrystal.

Did you WANT psion/psionics? At 8th level I am all for it, just wasn't sure that's in the cards.

Ehh, I'm feeling kinda wobbly about the dedicated hour as well. I'm on Pacific time, so in theory it isn't a huge problem. On the other hand, I also know that PbP games go for a very long time (with luck), and things change over time.

If I'm saying "sure" now, how can I know the same will be true 6 months or a year or 18 months into the future?

I'm not saying no, just a bit concerned about saying yes.

In any case, the character I have in mind is an Elf Ranger (Tanglebriar Demon Slayer / Transporter) who is up in Mendev on assignment as a military observer from Kyonin.

This is really well stated RDK: not sure this concept, which is working incredibly well in Wolf's Runelords campaign which is happening on Discord, is all that bad of a thing, although perhaps the idea hasn't quite been wrapped up, polished, and pitched by a marketing team. Wolf wants people engaged, and has found at least one great way with one great group to make that happen. That's it.

He is also really really really good at understanding that life happens, so whatever could change in 6 months or 18 months or 3 weeks, he'd figure it out. With anyone. Not only is this PbP, but it's Paizo PbP. The guy posted a guideline folks, not what was on that 11th tablet that got dropped. No one needs to feel like they ran into a wall here.

For what it's worth also, at least it's out there. Because here on these very boards, we've all been through it. Halloween happens and suddenly people want to use "the holidays" as some kind of barrier to posting the same way employees here in Los Angeles want to say "traffic" and think a choir of angels absolved them from being late. We've had GMs drop their games a week after recruiting, we've had GMs suddenly remember major life changes were going to happen in their family, we've had players tell us they're baking this weekend, the list goes on.

So if one guy is trying to rustle up a little engagement, I'm not sure that's the worst thing that's ever happened here. He's a gem, so I bet if you wanted to, he'd work through the barrier to make it an enhanceent, for everyone.

Thanks Miss C.
Thanks Greek.
:)

Wrong in fact but right in principle is exactly where I thought things were; I don't mind being corrected on a technical call, but contextually I think the character came from the right place.

Very much appreciate the team spirit.

Dude, it's all good, hang out.
Me feeling attacked isn't your problem.

It's a fair request to ask that reader omniscient detail be excluded from character engagement ... my counter-ask is just that I not get shamed for thinking that something we were semi kinda sorta browbeaten with is out of bounds.

I'm honestly exhausted with PbP culture & mechanics.

I am sorry that I skipped the "I wonder why this guy is a hostage" part, and the "why would the King send him here" part but I also have my own issues with topics & context in PbP. To me it didn't seem like an overstep that a character would comment on something that was presented in 6% of that page's posts.

I can totally disappear again if that helps.
It really is exhausting.

shades of blood dice set up

Shades of Blood Maps and NPCS

These are also the ones in my signature.

I'm thinking I need to add my own? It's been in my profile pretty much forever, just wondering.

Are you sure? I was under the impression that if you didn't like your 6 rolls, you can reroll them all. Not wanting to risk losing 3 '16's, I figured I would keep the numbers given.

Yep, Lilly is sure. They are taking that from under the Character Creation spoiler in Wolf's first post yesterday at 7:36pm where it says 5d6 SEVEN times.

Draft Character Sheet
Preliminary Backstory

Had already sent this to GM-H, and he asked that it be posted here.

At this point, Mason can go a couple directions. He can be the Mesmerist Enigma who ends up becoming a Thought Thief, all of which is a supercool solution to qualifying for the prestige class archetype as early as possible (taking Accomplished Sneak Attacker is a big feat investment, but the hard part was actually getting sneak attack). He could also be a Paladin (Mind Sword), having taken leave of the crusade in Mendev. Would tack that additional backstory on to Magnimar.

Alright everyone, here is your 24 23 HOUR WARNING. Submissions should be posted within the next 24 23 hours, by 12:00PM PST on Friday December 5th.

@Zahir ibn Mahmoud ibn Jothan Your final submission post can include as much or as little as you'd like, it's just there to clearly indicate that your character is submitted and ready for review. Either your submission post or your profile will ideally include your character build, character background info, and any other writing samples you'd like to submit for consideration. I'm not requiring full builds to be complete for submission and I'm only planning to audit characters who are accepted, so don't feel too much pressure on the mechanics as long as you've got a general idea of where you're going with the character.

Background and writing quality are the main things I'm interested in for this - submissions are judged on a gut feeling combination of how much I'm enjoying reading you write as/about the character (and any other included samples) and how much I want to play with that character. If somebody submits an enthralling story about a gunslinger from Alkenstar turned Shackles pirate with no mention at all of Brevoy or the Stolen Lands then I'll enjoy the read but pass on the character because this isn't Skull & Shackles and being able to collaborate is going to be a vitally important skill for everybody playing. Likewise, if the character is a perfect fit and slots in neatly to the plot but the writing style makes me want to claw my eyes out, I'll thank them for the submission and pass on the character because writing stuff that other people want to read is also a vitally important skill for everybody playing.

@GrimbleGrumble It is indeed too late, but I do thank you for taking the time to ask! Sorry you missed it, but if this experiment goes well then hopefully it won't be the last. In the meantime, best of luck with any other games that catch your fancy.

@Anders Smith Acknowledged, thanks for your...

All good ... thought I had 45 more minutes, but all good.

Process was incredibly cool though, as I finally hammered out a really solid path to Thought Thief, one of the 2 prestige class archtypes. Totally psyched to be able to put my vision together.

Have fun!

Looks cool, I love Waterdeep. Will we be able to do stuff in the city also?

The system is super dynamic and very cinematic actually.
Would probably be very cool to play.

So NOT an actual campaign trait, just a freebie? That's awesome. I was literally just posting a link to the Player's Guide.

I need to own that I am somewhat of a Kingmaker junkie, also a recovering English Major, and still adore PF1 even though I am really enjoying PF2.
I would love to take part in this experiment.

I could probably go on and on and on but I won't, other than to add a little insight about the Kingdom thing; it can be extremely hard to balance, by which I mean campaign focus. While it's a great opportunity overall, in principle, in RPGs of any kind, it also has to be a DESIREABLE opportunity, for the group as a whole, otherwise it can feel like a drag. In addition to that, when the achievement levels are disparate, it becomes both a problem and a disappointment.

My suggestion (which I have seen work) is paralell milestoning, where the kingdom's ongoing development is kept in step with the character's character development; and with milestone leveling that will be even easier.

My submission will def take advantage of the "solid reason to have ended up at Oleg's" suggestion and draw from broader world lore. Already interested in hearing whether you're interested in Drawbacks and/or 4th Traits too.

:(

Tarondor is a VERY busy man. You all should reach out to him in the event DA continues to be absent.

Had a bit of a change of heart after looking at options. I'm going to go with vindicator ranger. That way I'm ranged and focusing on wisdom.

I have wanted to do one of those for SO long (well, as long as WoI has been out, but yeah) That's an awesome choice!

I am also happy to help balance things out. In a low-level campaign, being an INT-based psychic might not suck either

I would like to throw my hat in the ring for sure, but I don't want to represent myself as a 'new' player either. Def not new to PF1, and also not new to Kingmaker, but would love a chance to see this AP happen.

That said, and to create a cool backstory, when is this happening? Asking both in principle and also against the backdrops of history. Ordinally, WotR is 7 APs after Kingmaker, so is the war to close the Worldwound in Mendev still happening? There are any number of other backdrops too. Has Shattered Star happened?

There are some fun Mendev and Magnimar concepts I'd love to present, but would also totally stand aside for a new person. Welcome back Galahad.

Last time I hid a campaign I never figured out how to un-hide it.
Should we be hiding this one?

What an awesome idea! Ket, such a good choice; geographic gateway, trade & economy gateway, even a cultural gateway and melting pot. Nice! Would be fun to see a bunch of cityslickers from Veluna or even Greyhawk make their way into Ket.

Good call on Traits by the way!

Team Zion: not sure it will matter, but I'm going to be away for the weekend. Yay. Happy birthday to me. Bot me as needed.

In that case, I will spare you the work AND take Frost's advice to read more carefully ;)

Dirk really does like cookies ... all finger foods really ... well, food.
I'm not sure Dirk has ever turned down food.

Hey Mem ... if there's no wild objection, I would also like to say that I really love the campaign and all of its detail and nuance. I was about to post something, fell into the rabbit hole of looking for the lodging ChimChim referred us to, and then kinda got lost in the history.

Do you know it took us FIVE PAGES to get to even meeting with the Starfinders? 5 pages. 250 posts. Roughly half of our total actually. I LOVED EVERY MINUTE.

That said, those 250 posts happened by the end of last October, and in the next 10 months, we've only managed about 275 more. That, to be honest, made me a little sad. Zeph accepted his job offer, along with you & I discussing cool stuff he would get, 6 months ago.

Added to all that, I'm not opposed to a conversion now that it's all online either. I may take a stab at Zephyrr 2E later today.
