So, my eldest daughter attempted suicide Easter of last year.
My wife, eldest daughter and youngest daughter have gone camping to be away from the house during this "bad" time.
I am looking for good, humorous, positive, etc. items to move me past the next few days, as, clearly, this is a challenging time as work has prevented me from joining them.
Please note, although I am battling depression and the current issues, this is not a 911 problem.
I am looking for humorous, fun or amusing ways to pass the next few days.
I WILL not surrender to my issues, but any enlightenment or levity is welcome!
An old, balding man carefully wipes the bar clean. The night is cool, it should draw travelers this evening, he smiles widely in anticipation of the coin to come.
25 point buy
Non monster races are preferred but not required.
No 3rd party stuff please.
2 traits, one must be a campaign

What I am looking for are heroes. This path requires people to do the right thing, to be big gosh darn heroes.
After posting your submission, head on over to the discussion thread and start role-playing. I will choose my party based on the interactions between you all from there.
This will be an exercise in writing for me, so I am looking for regular posting. Once a day is nice if possible, but this is a game, not a job. We are here to have fun folks!

Entry Requirements
And Spell Focus(Abjuration) to feats and change Prof with One martial weapon to all.
Abjurant Armor: By the looks of the RAW this is Ok, but should have ref to Mage Armor removed.
Extended Abjuration: Looks good but, should have a note that the Extended spells only function on the caster or if the caster is the focus of the spell.
Swift Abjuration: Can see the possible abuse of this one! Add language that ability functions only for spells with a range of touch(self only) or personal.
Arcane Boost: add language that the max spell to be burned is equal to you Abjurant Champion level.
Martial Arcanist: and language so that your caster level is eqaul to your BAB when casting Abjuration spells only.
Our game has benn canned due to aa silly thing like real life getting in the way. whimper. So having nothing else to do for the day, i will ask the question, What do ya'll do in this case?
The last time I have played a wizard was during 2nd edition.I normally play meat shields and combat monsters. Now I am about to advance to 3rd level. We are using the Beta PFRPG rules and I would love any advice or help.
The kings of leon will play at the St Augustine Amphetheatre on may 4th. I have heard them on the radio, has anyone heard them live? I might be able to get myself some uber tickets if its worth it.
I am breaking my posts up so that they are not eaten. Why should you care? Because the increase in tax will affect any one that deals with beer. EVERYONE. Every bar, c-store, diner, etc. According to my boss, this happened in the 90ies and it was brutal. With how things are now, he believes it will be far worse. The tax will increase the cost by about 20-30%, and reduce the sales by an equal amount. Ponder that. A loss of 20% in sales. This will mean that we will need to cut back on every level. Our CEO told us that 1 in 5 of us at the meeting would not be there if this goes through.
All right, here we go. I am currently running the AoWAp, we are currently at The Champion's Belt. While running this section one of my players took up the betting portion. Having just completed three 12 hour days of keg throwing, my mind and judgement were not at their best. This PC sought out the Varmint Patrol, and quickly started a fight, which he also quickly lost a purpose. His Bluff roll was a Nat20 and my Sense Motive was a Nat1. This happened at about midnight, and he then asked me what the current odds for them would be. Being rather tired, and all I threw out the number 50:1. He bet 7k gold. Any body care to make suggustions (or laugh) please go ahead.
Full Name
Markov Wolfpelt
Race
Witchwolf Cavalier lvl 2 HP 18(18) AC 19, touch 11, flat-footed 18 (+6 armor, +1 Dex, +2 shield) Fort +4, Ref +1, Will +0
Markov's Appearance
Markov has dark brown hair, yellow eyes, and tan skin from being outside quite a bit. He has rugged green and brown outfit underneath the chainmail he wears. Also has two bandoliers crossed across his chest. He seems to carry many weapons on his person. you can see a battleaxe, a shortbow, a sickle, and a morningstar, with the last two being made with odd material. He rides his horse, a pure white horse with its legs turning grey at the knees then dark grey at the hooves.
Markov's Personality
He is a gruff sort, not one to take offense and leave it at that. But when he gets to trust someone, he will protect them to the best of his ability.
Markov's History:
Markov was born to a lone priestess of Shelyn traveling the outskirts of Ustalav. She met his father, and for one night, slept together. The following day, he was gone. Further down the line, Markov was born while she was at one of the temples to Shelyn of the River Kingdoms. As he got older, he was taught that all things were beautiful. And that all things should be cherished. But one night, when he hit adolescence, he changed, scaring his "family" at the temple. He retreated to his room when he changed. Only his mother came. She said that everything is beautiful, and that he was too, just in a different way. Later that day, the people of the temple fearing a werewolf was amongst them, asked for them to leave. His mother agreed, and they left.
And as such they traveled the River Kingdoms. Showing good to the down trodden. But that would not last, as Markov was about to become an adult, she got infected with a wasting disease. He did his best to take care of her, but without having any clerical training as his mother did, she eventually died. With no one to truly turn to, he fell into a life of crime to survive. Using his bestial talents, he was able to get by, and soon, join a bandit group. They did well enough that he was able to get a horse for himself, such luck! But before long, a group of mercenaries came for them. They fought well, but they were wiped out. Markov survived only by riding his horse to get away. Now that is other family is gone, he wanders the River Kingdoms, heading north. Maybe he might find another family there? Anything is possible.
