Stopped after taking out the bandit camp.
Is there some timeline/deadline for a decision, DM? Just curious.
Hey, I would like to apply with this character. He was in a Kingmaker campaign that died after 3 days. I can increase to 25 pt buy upon selection.
Hi Nostrus, I like the feel of your game. Here is Garric (half-elf ranger 1), a character that I liked a lot that I made for another Kingmaker PbP that ended after 3 days. I remade him with your 15 pt buy. Any questions, let me know.
This is a Kingmaker character I had before in a PbP but it ended after the second fight. Plot Hooks:
Why he can't go home: No home to go to, mom dead, and cabin burned.
Garric has his bow ready for any violence.
Garric has his bow in hand, if needed, but he allows Eadric sn opportinity to find a diplomatic solution to the problem. He also keeps a sharp eye for more kobolds in the trees or forest.
"Eadric, do you see that light? Follow my finger." Garric readies an arrow in his bow, in case something dangerous this way comes.
"It seems only victims of trauma or out for vengeance take up the adventuring mantle, fighting who knows what in these dangerous woods. A sane person wouldn't risk their life in such a manner, going into dark caves, strolling in ruins or dungeons... I guess there's something a little off with all of us. That's all I have to say." Garric stares into the rain, trying not to remember.
Garric quickly moves Grady inside the cave. "Wouldn't want you catching a cold on me! I know how you get!" Garric smiles as he pats the horse.
Garric immediately prepares Grady for travel and heads back to Oleg's with Eadric. Oleg and his wife could be in possible danger!
"Yes, definitely wake the others. Somebody riding through the night, in these woods, is either very deadly or very stupid. We should be prepared for the latter, screw their spells." Garric gets up and picks up his bow and quiver. He checks on Grady to make sure he is well and proceeds to wake any sleeping party members.
Garric is fine with camping, as he massages Grady's muscles, strokes his mane, and feeds him apples.
Round 2: Garric moves around Eadric to avoid giving the wolf he is fighting cover and shoots another arrow!
Garric will try a Fast Dismount as a free action (DC 20): Then he will shoo away his horse from the danger and shoot same wolf Obi shot at: ; Damage: and then move back 20'.
; The party feasted on jackrabbit that day. ....Garric was disgusted with himself that he missed the tree.
"Look at those eyes....he does not seem all there!"
Garric does prefer his current bow. As for the MW chain shirt, it would be best to send it to the dead guy's family, not much difference since Garric already wears a chain shirt.
Garric awkwardly offers condolences to Eadric and his mates. "I'm sorry to say but I never had the pleasure of meeting your former companions. I am sure they are in a better place now." Then he goes back to watching the woods and remains quiet on the ride back.
"Sure, I'm in, and if it involves more bandit-killin', even better! Pleased to join your fine band of warriors."
Garric covers the party members in the hole with his bow, in case any fo the spider's friends return.
Garric shoots the spider:
Garric readies an action to shoot his bow once the spider pops out!
Garric has bow out, arrow nocked. He is covering party's rear.
"I'm not comfortable traveling with a 1-handed demon child, who's going to require our constant protection." Perception:
"Let's start, off to the Berry Patch."
Note: I did not sell the liquor. Of the 8 we started with, one was drank by Imiria and Goat, one was taken by Garric (I think), and one was given to Oleg as a gift. Of the remaining five I suggest we keep one for a celebration (I'm sure we'll have reason soon) and the last 4 can be used as bait for the Stag Lord (one of the bandits said he liked to drink). Garric, would you be so kind as to carry these four bottles as well? Sure.
Garric finishes his meal.
Garric enjoys Svetlana's food and eats as much as possible, knowing he will long for it in the cold days ahead, when the party is on the road. "Well, where shall we start exploring?"
"Weird demon-child! Glad to see she's gone!"
"Pleased to meet you sir, Garric, fellow hunter at your service. Oooh, I like those arrows you're offering. If I run into this pig, I'll definitely do my best to bring you back his head, Vekkel. Any idea where his hunting grounds are?"
"Ok, so what's the plan, Eadric?" Garric stuffs some food in his mouth. "We know the rest of the bandits have a fort up NE. We clear the woods and go after them?"
Confronting the rest of the group, she says: "It's our duty to bring justice to these lands, and as such we should tolerate no violence against defenceless people, even if they used to be bandits before. This is true especially if they repent their previous actions. There is no use in taking prisoners if others abuse them freely. Ula was a bandit indeed, but he helped us find the bandit camp and did not turn against us when able to. Letting him come to harm with no further trial is a serious crime done by us". "Repent???! HA! Can their repentance bring their victims back to life, undo the horrors they inflicted on them?? NO! Know that my arrows will always fly with only one intent: the most painful and quickest death possible. The way my arrow killed their bandit leader through the neck, that is all the mercy they will receive from me." With that, Garric looks in disgust at the bandit and walks into Oleg's Post, eager for a warm meal.
"Bah! Bandits deserve death with no mercy, so no crying for this poor wretch. They know what they sign up for when they prey on the weak!"
Add to the pile: A bear trap
Garric would like the bear trap, the vial, and 20 arrows.
Cool!
"Eadric, what is the plan for the prisoners? Honestly, I have no love for them, so killing them and letting them feed the carrion is fine with me. Oleg's Post is not a prison, he's not going to be able to hold them. And besides, they're slowing us down."
So you dip the arrow in the vial, for example, and it lasts how long before it wears out or does it have to be shot immediately after dipping?
Did we find out what the vial with the arrow was?
Garric takes the vial with the markings from the platform and puts in the loot pile. He will then search the other platform as well, collecting arrows and equipment. He will wait for daybreak and search the camp grounds extensively, searching Kressle's tent, the base of the trees, the fallen logs, etc..
Garric grasps his bow tightly and shoots one of the bandits, his hatred fueling his aim.
For DM: Garric shoots the bandit near Eadric:
