The Keeper of Forbidden lore looks upon many worlds, upon many realities. She sees reflections and possibilities. She sees things that are and things that could be. Today she looks upon the realm of earth, on the western regions of the North American continent. On lands claimed by the United States and things darker and more sinister than most mortals are willing to accept. She sees the tiny border town of Sutter's flats
With the hot Summer's sun beating down, baking you like a three day old kill left to rot in the heat, you find yourself in a tiny one horse boarder town of Sutter's flats. One Horse town fit this place to a T amigo. It lays not 10 miles north of Mexico and roughly 100 miles west of San Antonio, Texas. The town rests in a region of low, grassy hills dotted with the occasional scraggly cottonwood tree. The town isn't much, it seems to have few buildings. A livery, a general store, an under taker, a small saloon and a few scattered buildings. Maybe one is a boarding house, because there does not seem to be a Hotel and you'll be damned if a stage coach had ever graced the sun baked dirt streets.

This will be our OOC thread. It has been a while since I ran a pbp honestly and I really should have covered some basics in the Recruitment thread. It has came up in that thread so this is a good place to put this stuff.
Post rate: I tend to like 1/day, barring weekends. For a simple reason, stalling is death for a pbp. It has worked well for me in the past and I would like to stick with it. If you are gonna be unable to post for a while(work, vacation, wonky internet) just let us know and we can NPC you as needed. In combat I will give you 24 hours to post and then I will NPC you to keep from stalling.
Update times: I am Eastern standard time, But I am a night owl. As such I will likely update really late or deep in the AM. That does not mean I may only post 1/day, its just my most likely time. Its not a big deal except in combat. During combat I try to give 24 hours from my start post, if everyone posts before that deadline, cool, if not (as noted above) and then I will NPC you to keep from stalling.
Images and mapping: I plan to use roll20 if I need a mapper and will post up screen shots to use as needed. Its just simple and may not be used for all fights, but sometimes even a simple map just makes things flow easier.
Connections and Background: You can choose to connect one of more of the other PCs to yourself. Or be a a stranger to the other hirlings, I am leaving that to the players. I do what everyone to let me know 1hy they are in this tiny Texas town and why they would take a job as a cattlehand. Feel free to bounce Ideas around.
Other stuff: If I am leaving something out, feel free to ask.
Hello all, it has been some time since I ran a pbp here. I don't play much pathfinder any more, but always enjoyed this board and the community here. That being said, I thought it might be nice to run another game here.
With the new Deadlands edition out, I thought I might try my hand at running a game. This is more to check interest and to explain what I am thinking. I will be using the current Deadlands: The weird west rulebook. This book uses the Savage worlds adventures edition (SWADE. Off hand I think its close enough to Reloaded and the explores edition as to not be a huge deal if someone only knows those editions.
I may use roll20 for mapping and screen shots as needed and for the action decks, but you would not be required to sign on or anything. Its just a handy tool for the GM side if needed. I will also likely have bennies refresh and give advances when I feel its "right". Much like milestone leveling.
I am thinking of using one of two published adventures. I will list them below and anyone interested can tell me which one they like best.
A: Coffin Rock: This is set in a small mining town in Colorado, a failing mining town at that with a whole hep ol trouble to be had. Supernatural trouble is to be had as well as classical western trouble. A bit sandboxy and can be short or long all in how things are done
B: Blood Drive: Is one part of three adventures really, in it the party are part of a long cattle drive from Texas, across several states and running into trouble from the railroads to more supernatural issues.
I think that covers the basics. If anyone is interested in being part of a posse, let me know.
I will be starting a game soon that will be using the 5e ruleset, but set in Golarion. The reason I have hunting them is I want to flush out the Devil my Warlock character made a deal with.
Now, I do not have a super amount of PF books now days, some beastries, some world books and such. So I came here to see what other folks know. I know of The Gylou and the Erinyes and I know of the four Whore Queens.
The Keeper of Forbidden Lore looks upon many worlds, she watches and catalogs many realities. She sees many secrets, she knows many lost , forbidden and forsaken bits of lore. Today her gaze falls upon a world, the worlds of Golaron. They year is 4015 as mortals of that realms mark such time and it is the month of Sarenith .Her Gaze falls upon a small town in the Southern lands of Taldor. A village of less than two hundred. This village, which should be warm with the summer is cool and something unnatural stirs. This village is called Heldren and the Keeper watches events unfold.
The sleepy village of Heldren has rarely seen much excitement of times of great concern. Lately however that has changed. Hunters from the nearby Boarder wood now speak of unnaturally could weather for the end of Sarenith. Just a few days ago heavy snow descended upon the forest. Those who have returned from the wood have spoke of an uneasy presence in the wood, as well as new and dangerous predators. No one knows what this means, but Mother Theodora claims that dark times lie ahead.
As if providing proof of that dire prophecy, a badly wounded mercenary arrived in town just last evening, claiming to be a bodyguard of Lady Argentea Malassene. In such a small Village, words gets around. This mercenary told the village council that the noble woman's escort came under attack by bandits and strange wintery creatures at the edge of the Boarder forest. He claims he alone escaped as the lady was dragged into the forest.
It is hard to miss the unease in the village, the fear for cast of eyes toward the Boarder forest. A forest,unnaturally cold and covered in snow.Or the unnatural coolness of the morning as the villagers huddle among themselves with fear of just what might come from the forest.

First off welcome to the game. Converting to e will be trial and error so always feel free to ask me something or PM me. Now I would like to connect the characters in a way that make them a real group. None of this "Random folks we meet two days back in a bar and now have an unbreakable bond" non-sense.
How I am gonna correct this is by taking a page from fate, which is my favorite RPG. In Fate, characters are connected to one another during character generation by stories and aspects. We are not playing fate, so aspects are out. The stories however are in and this is how we shall do it.
Each Character will be connected to two pother characters in some way. You will tell a story,a few paragraphs about your character and another character, how they meet, something they did together, anything at all. YOU have full narrative control of that story, but feel free to PM the player of that character if you wish to have help making a connecting story.
And important note for non-fate players. Just because someone used one of their connections to put you in a story, does not mean you have to do the same. As you are already connected at that point. You may choose to do so, but need not do so.
Our cast is
Victor "Vic" Lofliss-- Half-Elf, Rogue (Filios)
Barl “the Boulder” Skein--Golarith(Ulfen), Fighter (Jam412)
This is how we shall do this. Your very first post in this thread should be as your avatar. Each person will have to use one connection on the person above their name on the above list. Filios will connect Vic to the last person, Helen. After that, you may choose anyone to be your second connection, but remember you need to chose someone just because they used you. People are often connection though a vast web of life events. I would like to get out connections established and put down first so they will always be easy to find.
And I think that it is folks. If you have a question before the stories are posted, just PM me.
I am looking for players for a Reign of winter game converted to D&D 5e. Yes this is a Golarion game, just ran under the 5e ruleset. I have no idea if this game will move past part 1, the Snows of summer. Ap's take a very long time to play but Barring any mass player lose, computer explosions, weird alien invasions or the like, I will run this part to completion. At that time, we can see where we are and see if everyone would like to go onto the second part.
Now a bit about what I expect and how I will run this game.
I like a daily posting rate of at lest 1 post per day, Monday thru Friday and a try for at lest once on the weekend. I have no set time I show up and you have 24 hours from the time I post Monday thru Friday before I move onward.
Combat can kill an pbp and kill it dead. You have 24 hours from the time I start a round( except weekends) to post an action or I will NPC you/skip you to keep the game from stalling.
I will roll combat initiative
If we use a map, as I found them useful with pathfinder, I will post them here in a link. I have done so with all my other games and you will not be required to do anything. There are other options and those can be talked about by the group selected.
I have formatting styles I would like used when in play to make the action, talking and ooc comments more reable and readily identified. I'll cover this in the first OOC post for selected players
There is no need to make a profile. We have all done that before, not gotten selected and now have like 25 names we have only used now and then. Just post your app here, if selected you can then make an avatar.
Character generation:
Characters will be made with the 27 point buy rules from page 13 of the PHB
Races allowed:(PHB) All except Drow and Dragonborn*,Human variant in use,(DMG) aasimar (EEPC)Gensie and Goliath**
Classes allowed: All + the spelless ranger, favored soul, and swashbucking rogue options from unearthed arcana. As well as the warlock option below.
Backgrounds: All the official ones + ask if you have a fanmade one you would like to use. I'll at lest look at it and give it some thought.
Feats: Yes we are using them.
Alignment: Ignore it.I do not use it, if you need to know something for a spell or the like, just ask me.
*If you can refluff dragonborn to fit golarion I might well allow them.
** Goliath can easily be refluffed as an Ulfen with "witch blood" or giant blood or some such.
Abilities:
• 1st level: Blessings of winter: The winter Hag has bestowed upon you an unnatural love and acclimation to the cold. You have Cold acclimation (Page 110 DMG) and are not affected by the cold. You find the fiercest snowstorms and the coldest weather as comfortable as a summer’s day.
• 6th level: The Evil Eye: You have gained the ability to curse someone with bad luck if only momentarily. As an action you can choose a target within 30 feet that can see you and give them the Evil Eye stare. Until the start of your Next turn that creature will have a disadvantage on all skill, attack and save based roll.
• 10th level: Chilly Resistance: You gain the ability to coat yourself in a thin layer of frost. That grants you the ability to resist physical damage. This ability grants you a resistance to physical harm for 10 minutes. Damage from magical or cold iron weapons ignore this resistance. This ability cannot be used again until you take a short or a long rest
• 14th level: Winter’s embrace: When you hit a creature, you can choose to embrace it with winter’s utter, unforgiving cold. The creature it surrounded by howling and bitter cold winds for one turn, unable to move, or interact with the outside realm. The target take 8d8 cold damage and must make a wisdom saving throw or be under the effects of the slow spell for one minute as the unnatural cold chills its flesh and bones. Once this feature is used it cannot be used again until you finish a long rest
Please feel free to ask anything I have no covered as I am sure I have left something out
Hello all, I used to run pbp on here but have not in some time. I know there is some interest in 5e on here but thought I would see just how much there was before I dived right in.
So, any interested in a reign of winter game converted to 5e?
To those among us who celebrate this day I wish you a merry one and the blessing of it.
May your Gods, Goddess and Spirits greet you on this day
The harvest and seasons change the old year at end, The lord of winter come heiter a new cycle has begin.
May this new cycle bring you joy no matter how you choose to greet it.
Merrily met and merrily part, and merrily meet again.
Blessings to all.
Just wanted to put this out. Games and Comics in London KY was looking for folks interested in running PFS games. I myself have zero interest in running such a game, but I thought I would bring it up here.
Or even seen the beast? Most times I see anything about this it is assumed the wizard have near unlimited numbers of "Any spell I happen to need right now" ready. It also assumes the wizard has any and every spell they want. And can find or make any and every magic item they happen to want.This has never been a case in any game I have run or really ever played in.
In Theory wizards can pull off almost anything, in practice it never has been that way as far as I can see.
So anyone actually seen such a beast at the table or is it like most other myths and seen mostly on message boards?
To those among us who celebrate this day I wish you a bright and blessed Samhain.

Well as the title says, I feel Paizo has confused themselves on just what these are. In the APG it was clear, an archetypes was a few switches and all worked the same way. An Alt class was a near total rework of the class that seems to leave no Ability unchanged.
It wasn't based on word count or size of the write up but how much was changed. What was an archetype was clear and well defined as what was an Alt class.Then we get UM and UC.
In Um we get the Qinggong Monk. An archetype that does not use the rules for archetypes. It seems to be a total monk rework, which to my mind and going off the APG is not an archetype but an alt class. Or be honest and call it a reworked and new Monk.
In UC it gets worse. we have a new "class" which is clearly a fighter with replacement features. He gets things at the very same level a fighter does but swaps every feature. This is an Alt class on par with the Anti-paladin. So one of em are being called the wrong thing.
Then the new "Alt classes" which are clearly archetypes. The Samurai simply swaps items and adds two new Orders. It is in line with the current Archetypes and smaller then some. The Ninja has the same issue, its a archetype that swaps 4 abilities and ads one and the only thing that even makes it large is calling the Rogue talents "Ninja tricks"
It just seems to me they have lost the way on what is what. It seems of late if something is a class/alt class or archetype depends totally on what name they call it. And this just makes me a bit sad.

Ok this keeps popping up in the ninja thread so i moved it here. It seems a large number of people are useing this archetype incorrectly. Or at lest What i think of as incorrectly. They are claiming it can be cherry picked. But Archetypes do not work that way.
Now the archetype states

Ki Power: A qinggong monk can select a ki power (see below) for which she qualifies in place of the following monk class abilities: slow fall (4th), high jump (5th), wholeness of body (7th), diamond body (11th), abundant step (12th), diamond soul (13th), quivering palm (15th), timeless body (17th), tongue of the sun and moon (17th), empty body (19th), and perfect self (20th). This replaces the monk class ability the qinggong monk gives up for this ki power.
Now folks are claiming you do not have to take a replacement , which is false. And they say this based upon the word "can" which many archetypes use. And we know you must take all the replacements with an archetype and may not choose to skip one.
The Break is what is getting people. Read it this way "A qinggong monk can select a ki power for which she qualifies" They replace slow fall (4th), high jump (5th), wholeness of body (7th), diamond body (11th), abundant step (12th), diamond soul (13th), quivering palm (15th), timeless body (17th), tongue of the sun and moon (17th), empty body (19th), and perfect self (20th)
Now some claim for example you can skip high jump but lets look at the rest of the option. The Archetype says you can indeed have high jump, but most be at lest 6th level to take the ki power.
What this says is you can not have it at 5th. The archetype does not allow it, you must be at lest 6th level to take high jump if you are this type of monk. What this archetype does is replace all the options at 4th,5th.7th.11th,12th,13th,15th.17th,17th,19th and 20th with options, lots and lots of options.
You can still take some of those Powers but only at the level the archetype allows.
Now if you can show me where paizo has stated this archetype does not in fact use the normal archetype rules I would like to see it.

Ok this shall be the OOC thread.
Standard char creation, all three books allowed {Core,Sunward and gatecrashing}
Station Info
Spoiler:
Arch Royal " The Arc"
Orbit: MEO
Station Type: Torus
Allegiance: Lunar-Lagrange Alliance
Primary Languages: English,French, Mandarin
Major Industries: Salvage
The Arc started life as a grand hotel orbiting at Earths L1 Lagrange point. Then came the fall and all those desperate people fleeing a dying world, The Arc was overwhelmed by refugees, its Splendider
marred by shanty-towns, hovels, and camps. Its once lush groves of exotic plants hacked to bits for firewood and shelter.
Now the station sits in a no mans land of drifting and abandoned Habitats, overlooking a ruined world no one wants to really see, populated by people no one really wants and who have no where else to go and most have no means of going if they did.
Officially The Arc belongs to the Lunar-Lagrange Alliance, but really it has no power within the LLA and is often ignored or used as a dumping ground for the unwanted and those wishing to hide. However its location does make it useful for salvages as well as smugglers and people who just do not want anyone looking to closely. And the Arcs Government is corrupt enough not to care as long as they profit.
The Arc can be divided into three sections. Central control,The Ring and The spine.
Central control is the Center most area of the Ring. The heart of the station, this is the never center and controls not only the ring exists but the Spine as well. The government is centered here and still live in the only well maintained pre fall splendor left upon the Arc.
The ring is the largest area upon the Arc and has been given over to shanty towns and refugees and criminals. The Ring can be Split inot six sectors.
Sector 1: This used to be the shopping center of the arc with splendor abound and everything a guest could want. Now it is a hive of packed hasty built shacks and open markets, selling anything and everything, salvage, drugs, xp,prostitution, you name it and someone here can get it, for a price.
Sector 2: Used to be spas and parks with breath taking Views of the earth. Now it stands as a run down, poverty stricken area for those who have no where else to go. The once grand views now reminders of the horrors of the fall and no one wants to stare at the dead world for long. A sect of reclaimers have taken over an old spa house and operate out of the section.
section 3: Lovely dubbed "china town" This used to be the quarters of the staff, it became a haven for both them and their families as well as many refugees. Section three is crime heavy but well run and with much less Violent crime then other sections of the station. Outsiders are not welcome here.
Section 4: This used to be the Guest suites and is now little more then sections shanty towns and clannish gangs control much of this section. The section can be relatively safe as ling as you throw in with one of the gangs
Section 5: This was also Guest suites, but the section was damaged sometime after the fall and never repaired. With no life support and little in the way of power the section stayed abandoned for a while. Now days it is a haven for sythamorphs who live here away from those who fear and oppress them, many work salvage or station maintenance.
Section 6: Once the greeting area as well as containing resleeving facilities, this area is now under the firm control of station government
The spine contains the life support, station functions , cargo and docking area's. As well as several communities of Uplifts who have carved a home for themselves out of the stations innards. Many such communities lack gravity, being outside the ring.
After thinking it over and getting some interest a while ago, I have decided I will start up an Eclipse Phase PBP.
The game will start with each player as a fire wall agent, you need not be an active agent and can have a life outside of firewall. The game will be set in Earth orbit (Meduim earth orbit really) at earths L1 Lagrange point.The setting will be a torues habitat, a former high end hotel know as "The ArcRoyal " Mostly known now days as the Arc. Once a place for the rich with fabulous spas, spacious rooms and gardens and breathtaking views of earth, the arc has seen better days. Now its an over crowed station, its luster long gown, mostly home to the destitute and those with no other place to go or those not wanting to be seen by places with more security. Its gardens replaced with shanty towns, its spars and rooms now repurposed and replaced with crap quarters. Only a few powerful elite still on the station still live in the upper section.
The station is a port of call for scavengers, scum barges , criminals and those with no other place to go.
Each Pc would need a reason to be on the Arc, business, thrill seeking, being stuck there or the like. They would also need to list how they got there, ship (what kind), infogee,refugee or egocast.
So anyone willing to defend Transhumanity from all comers?
Books: I allow the core book, sunward and gatecrashing , although please list were and from what page you have gotten things.
Interest check: Possible Rouge Trader or Eclipse Phase Game
So My life has settled back to mostly normal and I have found all but one of the Games I play in are dead. And well I have a massive whole in my online gaming now.
So I am strongly tempted to start yet another game {I might be a bit made really}, However I am not wanting to do another pathfinder game. I have a shelf full of other games I want to run and these two are on the top of the list.
Does anyone else feel like grit should be an optional rule that replaces the 1st level feat of any fighter archetype {AsI know of none that replace it off hand} and then have a whole slew of deeds made for things other then the gunslinger that you can take in place of a fighter feat?
For those of you that do not know what I speak of a time of war is the new mech warrior RPG for batletech. I have long been burnt out of anything past 3058 in canon BT universe, but I do wonder if this is any good.
Well Trothkin does anyone have this? And if so is it any good.
To those among us who celebrate this day, I wish you a merry Samhain and the blessing of it.
May your Gods, Goddess and Spirits greet you on this day
The harvest and seasons change the old year at end, The lord of winter come heiter a new cycle has begin.
May this new cycle bring you joy no matter how you choose to greet it.
Merrily met and merrily part, and merrily meet again.
Blessings to all.
I have been on a steampunk kick of late, wanting to run something steampunkisish. So I thought I would throw this out and see if there was some interest before I put a ton of work into this.
The Idea: Pc's would be members of the Imperil Bureau of Esoteric Investigation. A part of the Lanathan Empire, that works outside the normal china of command for the greater good of the empire. The IBEI is in charge of finding, Investigating and dealing with threats both mundane, magical and those born of science gone wrong.
The world: That is a bit vague right now. The setting will have more then one great empire, but none as large or as powerful as the mighty Lanathan Empire. Very British empire, large underclass, very industrialist driven, with a big difference in how the rich live over how the poor underclass lives and is treated.
Now here is the biggy for me. I have two thoughts of how I want to run this. And I want to see where the interest is if any before spending mass amounts of time on it.
1: Story teller system. I really like the core world of darkness rules and thing they would be great for something like this myself. Maybe throw in some rules from second sight to allow psychics and mystical so common to Victorian stories. It would be a pure mortal game however, no vampires or the like. No world of darkness story just the story teller system.
2: Modified pathfinder rules. That means classes would be limited {Barbarian,fighter,spell less ranger,rogue and alchemist maybe the witch} Races would be Human only with maybe some kind of created race. Magic items would be non existent, except some potions. items would be steampunk items, weapons would be firearms for the most part, armor would be rare and I would use a scaling ac bonuses. Very low magic, but still very fantastical in its own way.
So if anyone is interested in something like this , let me know and which system each of you are most interested in. Thanks for your time reading this everyone.
Ok guys at the risk of making this worse the other two threads got me thinking. Just what does need to change? What needs taken out, fixed, reworked or what have you?
What is the things you think must be fixed for pathfinder?
For me I have a few.
1: I think powers must be spells. They must use the same casting rules from chapter 9 of the PFRPG. This is not about points or no points but when I stat up a psion I should be able to list his "powers" from the core rule book like any other class. They should use the same rules, same SR and same freaking skill checks.
2: The free still, silent spell needs to go As for the V,S,M not fitting I call bull on most of it. In books and tv psychic powers always have gestures or words of some type, many need a focus or an item to use. So really it fits {Also though ya could have eschew materials for free, which to me works best}
3: Novaing, It needs addressed and ended, I don't care how, no points , max points per power per level, a prancing pixie keeping score. Does not matter as long as it is addressed and ended.
These are my big three, to me these must be fixed or your wasting time even messing with it as you have the same issues as now.
So lets see what you think needs fixed, both PRo, anti and guys in between. What is on your list as needing fixed?
Ok 3rd try here, I am running a type of post apocalyptic game using the new world of darkness rules. The game has been going on for a while, but started off very slow and we have just gotten up to a good pace, one I hope to keep us at.
It is set in Kentucky in 1998 and based off the book "dies a fire" by S.M.Sterling.
A basic rundown is an event happened, no one knows what caused it, but a blinding white light on March 17, that every felt. After it pass, technology no longer works, cars, electricity, gunpowered and so on.
So the story so far is it is day three, and it's been three days of rain, snow and cold weather with no power, no running water and no firearms. The party was held up in a farm but went into town and got into a brawl that left two of em hurt and 5 men dead. One of the players plan to head north to fetch his lady love while the others where going to try to keep their family/friends safe as the world falls apart.
Now for anyone still interested a few things. World of darkness storyteller system is lethal, it is not easy on combat, its short and it's brutal. Very grim and gritty , as such the game will not be combat heavy as combat is brutal
So I am looking for folks that do not mind the low or brutal combat and can post once a day most weeks.
Just what it says, anyone have any interest in this? I was in a player elsewhere and the game just died the PBP death but was enjoying it till then.
So far they have released, the core book, the GM screen and today sunward. All can be downloaded free as they are creative commons. If ya like em buy and all that.
Ideally I was seeing if anyone had an interest in running the game as I run to many to take on yet another game, but I would also like to see who else is here that likes the game
Ok as spoiler are spread across the board now I am gonna post the ones here I know about. Please feel free to post any ya find or wish to share

pole fighter info{from ice Titan}
- The ability to short haft in return for bravery
- normal weapon training stuff, including weapon mastery-- notable because many other fighter archetypes lose it
- the ability to choose a square he threatens to flank from, including occupied squares-- a polearm master could be in a configuration like this:
ooooooo
X.O
..x
the o's are a wall, the x is a rogue and the polearm master is the small X. he chooses to flank from inside the wall and gets +2 to attacks
-the ability to five-foot step back as an immediate action when threatened creatures step adjacent to them
-the ability to give allies attacked in his threatened area +2 to AC and DR 5/- as an immediate action
-can trip or bullrush with any polearm at a -4... which you could already do anyways???
Phalanx fighter can wield any spear or polearm his size as a one-handed weapon when he uses a shield (so, halberd or longspear as a 1-handed weapon w/ a tower shield) and negates the attack penalty of his tower shield by 11th level. Also other bonuses, like CMD bonuses, evasion when wielding a shield, or readying against charges as an immediate action.
Archer fighters can grapple with arrows at level 11. Enough said.
TWF fighters get the ability to attack with both weapons as a standard and on opportunity attacks, and other goodies. Fairly good.
Two-handed fighters get the old Pathfinder beta feats, like Overhand Chop, Devastating Blow and Backswing, in new forms. Really good.
Weapon masters are like the Sword & Fist variant in that they're the master of critical hits. Can add +1 to their multiplier as an immediate action x/day and gets a +4 to DCs of effects caused by critical hits.
New ranger combat styles
Crossbow
Mounted combat
Natural weapon
Two-handed weapon
Weapon and shield
Someone posted this as well
Sweeping Fend (Ex): At 13th level, a polearm master
can use any spear or pole arm to make a bull rush or trip
maneuver, though he takes a –4 penalty to his CMB when
making such attempts. Weapons with the trip property
do not incur this penalty on trip maneuvers. This ability
replaces weapon training 3.
Ok so not to derail another thread I started this one. Lets not get into Points and such but here is the deal.
A psion should be something new you can't do with other caster even if it uses the same system. What we need to ask is why a psion? why this class? what makes it different? And if all you have is "spell points" then there is really no point to the class.
What could be it's thing? what could it do other casters could not? Lets suppose your limited to using the core casting system , much like all other casters do, what makes it a psion? how does it stand out? What makes it not just another wizard? What makes it stand out? What can it do no other caster can do?
The keeper of Forbidden lore looks across many worlds, many reality's, across the plans to both things that have been,will be never, were and may yet be again. This day her gaze is drawn to a small world spinning in a galaxy in one of many universes, one of many reality's. Her gaze is not drawn by the people or the world it's self but by an event which crosses time and space, and event which changes reality and splits what is with what never was and yet shall be. Her phantom less gaze settle upon an small area in the Appalachian region of a nation call The United States of America. A place ringed with hills and covered in forests, a place where technology has made farmland and homesteads out of what once was a frontier and land of tribesmen what was once vast wilderness .
Her gaze settle upon the town of Jackson, and the event begins to unfolds.
Bryan Woods
Spoiler:
…...”I still miss her in a- round about waaaaaaaaay
Around about the time that midnight rolls around
That's around about the time my tears start fallin' down
'Cause she's not around I come unwound and my heart breaks
Yeah, I still miss her in a round about way
Yeah, I still miss her in a round about waaaaaaay”
The singer on the radio trangs as the windshield wipers brush the snow/rain mix off your windshield with a THWACK!, THWACK,THWARCK. It had been a long day, cloudy, wet and cold. And of course you had to tread though the muddiest farm in the country to check the Millers story about the fire. Not that you could tell much given the swap the ruined outbuildings where in and the snow that had just recently melted off with the rain..the oh so cold rain.
Bryan looks down at the clock on the radio 3:16, sigh he still had to get this paperwork in and follow up on the Hastings case as well. Things just kept getting better it seemed. Suddenly a flash of white light, stretching from horizon to horizon flashes before him, not just his eyes but with a flash of pain, like any he had ever known flashes though his head. The few seconds he was blind where enough, when his vision came back the truck was headed toward the ditch. His wipers no longer working, the radio was dead the wheel not responding. Bryan barely manages to get the truck under control as he hits his brakes. He hears a thunderous crash of metal on metal somewhere as the truck slams into the ditch cleaning out a good fifty feet before coming to a stop with a jerk.
You pull yourself out of your truck, not really sure what the hell happened, your bleeding a little from you mouth and feel blood running down your knee from the dashboard but all in all your not really much worse for wear. You feel the cold rain/snow mix hit your skin and as you look around you can see a few other cars have slammed into each other of the ditch, some looking bad , one on it's side not to far from where your truck rests. A bit down the road maybe a mile downhill on the bend you see what looks to be a bus torn near in half by a semi, it's trailer sideways and contents spread across the highway. You can see a few forms unmoving on the rain slick highway from here.
Your only a few miles outside of Jackson but from the looks of it highway 15 is a mess.
Father Wallace Salvatori
Spoiler:
Father Salvatori seat near the back of the mostly empty greyhound as it speed along Highway 15 toward Jackson. It looked cold out, no snow on the ground here but everything was gray and a rain/snow mix beat against the window of the bus. Most of the other passenger seat near the front, Leaving the Father alone in the gloom of the buses rear seats. It suited him fine, he had much to think about and the last few weeks had shaken his faith a bit, if not in God then in the church itself.
He was looking out into the leafless trees and rain slicked earth when the Flash burned across the sky, and his mind. It was unlike any pain he had know, it ripped though his head blinding him for just a moment, But in that Moment hell was unleshed upon that bus. He could hear screams and someone maybe the driver yelling ”F#@+! It won't turn, God damn it wont turn!' Other screamed, or cried out, then someone yelled ”The truck!' and Wallace looked up to see not only the bus going sideways as the driver fought for control but a yellow semi headed straight at them.
He didn't really think, just reacted maybe it was all that training or maybe it was The Lords will. What ever made him ball with his head between his knees in the crash position may have saved him. Next thing he knew it was like the Hand of God had hit that bus. He heard screams, felt a jerk and blood from his lips as he spun.
Maybe he blacked out, for the next thing Wallace saw and felt was rain. He lay in the floor of the bus, or what was left of it. He smelled the sewage from the buses tanks on the floor and his cloths. He felt blood on his face, and he felt bruised. As he lifted his head he could see the bus was near in half, people or parts of people , the bus, truck and God alone knew what else was scattered along Highway 15.
Slowly Father Salvatori, Battered and bruised stands.
Tommy Butcher,
Spoiler:
Tommy carried boxes to the back of the shop, it was cold and rain dripped of his coat as he unloaded the van. Shelia Whitaker, The Clinics receptionist called out to him as he walked past. ”Your getting water on the floor!' She yelled. The woman always gave him hell, he thought. Nag, nag, nag. She didn't care much for what she called “No good low life Sara keeps hiring.” ”Dr. Wakeland is out at the Abner's, She wants you to run up there once your done here” She says, in a snide voice
Sara Wakeland, the owner of the Wakeland animal clinic and his mentor of a sorts, seemed to have a soft spot for people who had royally screwed up. He reckoned he counted for that. The fact her daughter Glenda had put in a good word had helped him out a bit once he got out of prison. He had a thing for Glenda but so far had not really acted upon it. He had a good thing going here and he didn't want to screw it up by Pissing the wakelands off so soon. He was after all staying at there place outside of town right now.
He was headed back out when the light ripped though his mind. Like 10'000 volts of nasty pored right though his head. He heard Sheila scream then crashes, a few of em. Once he made his way back to the main entry Sheila asks ”What was that light?' in a panicked voice. Tommy payed her little mind as he stepped out into the rain. Everywhere cars where piled into each other, building, poles and poor people who where not fast enough to get away. What struck Tommy and struck him fast was....No horns, no lights no sound at all from anything man mad.
What the hell Is going on? he thinks to himself
Adam Fletcher,
Spoiler:
Adam's last class of the day had just ended and was making his way toward his car. Rain he thought is was always rain or snow this winter. God it looked cold. Weather man was giving the chance or more snow. He sighed as he zipped his coat against the cold. ”Been cold hasn't it?” Professor Williamson said behind him. Adam turned to see the breaded man come toward him on the walkway. He was dressed in a long coat and that damnable hat. Williamson or “wacko willi “ as his friend Mason called him. Looked like a man a hundred years out of his time. His slacks and shirt were hidden by the leather frigged trench coat he wore, and the cowboy hat he always had on seemed to have seen better days. Add that to his “Mountain man” beard and the fact he was a “The lord's judgment is at had nut” with his own bunker didn't help him avoid the nickname
”Been a harsh few winters hasn't it?' He said. Adam just nodded hoping this was not leading up to another 'end is near” rant or yet another church invite. ”Weather man says we may have another big one coming, maybe like 96'. Best stock up on can goods and candles, just in case. Folks die when they are unprepared. Be prepared Fletcher” He says in solemn tones. ”Whelp” He says with a nod 'I need to get agoing, Don't forget to stock up” He says as he walks though the rain toward his truck.
Adam gives the crazy Professor time to drive off before walking toward his car with his hood up. He was standing at his car fumbling with his keys in the rain when the light rain across the sky. He saw it mere moments before it burned though his head, a swearing pain unlike anything he had ever known. Shacking a bit he sees other folks looking around, pointing here or there and hears screams and yells. Something sounds off. The radio , he thinks. Was it a nuke? Were we attacked, he hurry turns his ignition, but nothing happens. His wipers don't work, his lights are not on,
Stepping out of the car with a sinking feeling in his gut he realizes His car is not the only one not working.

Ok guys I more or less have talked myself into doing this. Now this will work out or it will die a horrible pbp death, but as to which one who knows. But my curiosity has got the better of me and my will save sucks
Now I have read the world of darkness rule set and loved the system as it seemed to fit, however I have never ran the system, so be aware of this I am in a learning curve a bit so if I make a rules mistake, point it out to me.
A few things here. This thread is not only to discuss the running game but also the set up. I have started tinkering with it a bit but have not for instance nailed down just where the main game will be set or just where it starts. Also there is the issue of getting a group together, In a book ya can work to have em meet and spend months in the book doing that, not so much in a pbp which might be months of real time.
The game will run somewhere in Appalachia, not sure where just yet. I have a vague story line as well as antagonists, groups and friendly folk I can place. I will take input from the players to nail down area and we will work as a group to set he stage.
I plan to run this game as a story, with "chapters" think of it as like parts to an adventurer path. Much like the book there will be spots where the chapter ends and we may skip ahead weeks or months to the new chapter. Allowing down time and time to spend those oh so lovely XP's
As how long a chapter will be or just how much down time, really depends on the story. If yall for example like the bear killers get a group together and march toward some goal, we could skip weeks of traveling only to start the new chapter when ya find a town.
Hope this makes some sence to ya. Just fancy words for "down time"
Ok now for the folks still interested in such a game we have some decisions to make.
1: Just what are you interested in playing?
2: Do we start at the location or travel to it
3: Why are we going to it{ I have some ideals here}
4: How do you meet?
5: Any input ya have or anything ya would like to add would be welcome
Ok I am still on the fence if I want to try this, but it has been in my head over a year now. So I opened this thread to see if there was enough interest in the game premises to put the work into running this
So for those of you who may not know the emberverse is the setting of S.M strilings most excellent post apoc books. The first of which is called 'dies the fire"
The basic concept is on march 19th 1998 the world as you know it came to an end. In a flash of light at 3:19 PM est technology stopped working, plans fell from the sky's electricity, gunpowder, steam engines and everything you know just stopped. In that bright painful white flash that even the blind saw the world changed. Everywhere people struggled to survive with out transportation, food, lacking everything we depend on. Cities become wastelands of the starving, everywhere people try to get out to find a place to hold up , to settle to lk out a living and some turn to the only food source readily available. People. eater, neo savages and the desperate all try to live in a changed world.
I was thinking a game just a few days after the event, maybe starting the day of the event. With the party coming to gather and going from there, will they live? will they die? will they found city's nations or kingdoms in the new world that is to rise from the death of the old?
Anyhow like I said I am Gauging interest before I put to much work into it. So if this is something that might interest a few of ya, let me know
This will be new world of darkness rules mortals only, I just like the rule set and it seems suited for this.
You have been near two weeks out of the town of Solku, on a long dreary camel caravan to an unknown location in the northern scrublands of Katapesh. You have been traveling with a Man named Garavel, he is the man that hired you. He seems to be a rather no-nonsense major-domo of a merchant princess who awaits you at your destination.
To the west, in the distant haze you can make out the outline of what must be an immense mountain looming over the whole area like a tombstone, you have watched it grow closer in the passing days. Your caravan seems to be getting close to the destination, but your not sure, Garavel is a man of few words. But you look to your fellow travlers, each on his own camel, with two pack camels bringing up the rear.
As the day grows short, Garavel, calls for a night camp. As you all know the drays are hot and the nights are cold so a fire and meal would be nice. Beside as you have also seen the scrublands are not empty after all

Ok this will be my first game set in golarion so lets get to the basics
Basic Info
20 point buy
2 traits from any of the books listed below{1 being a campaign trait}
Average starting gold
Hp= Max+con mod
Books I will allow
Core, most of the PFCS,Lof player guide, equipment from the RotRL and Cotct players guides
I will also allow the following companions: Talador, cheliax,Qadria and elves of Golarion.
I will also be allowing the playtest classes as long as your ok with them maybe changing.
I may allow some other races, earning your freedom trait would suit that, but see below about getting alone
House rules:
min number of skills are 4 per level all classes have at lest 4.
Multi-classing can only be done if you spend time training before you level up. This may be done during down time but you must make tell me that you are doing so. No more then one PRC unless you have a damned good role playing motive
Also I would ask that you make a group that can work together and mesh. I really do not want a group that can't get along and falls about due to not being able to get along
So far we have
Guy = gnome druid
Kevin mack=Gnome paladin
Dax=?
so I have room for 2 or at most 3 more players
think thats everything for now

"I have been a bit nostalgic of late, missing the call of battle. The joy of Battlearmor against my flesh. The feel of victory and the pule of pure excitement that runs though my veins As I rip the armor from a Omnimech with my hands. To long have I stayed from the path of Kerensky, to long have I felt the joy of battle, to long have I waited with no trails, no battles , denying myself honor and my clan bondsmen
So I call to you warriors one and all brethren of battle, children of war to step forward and name Thy self. Clansmen, Servant of the corrupt Houses or honor less mercenary. Step forward and be named."

Tonight we lost Harn Bonesteel, dwarven Barbarian 2.
Within the depths of the The Refuge of Nethys, Harn charged the accused Haidar while ragesing. Under the effects of the breath of Nethys Hard held the beast back two full rounds while so inflicted. He was brought low and lay bleeding upon the craven floor for two rounds while his companions looked on unable to make to reach him until to late.
The party Killed Haidar then broke apart the decaying Barq of Nethys to make a pyre for the fallen dwarf. Sadly the mold speaker is now dead and his weapon lays forgotten wrapped with in a cloth back in the party's room
Upon talking with Flash_cxxi Tonight and haveing thoughts on flying races from that talk I wrote this down. Was trying for something not just under +1LA it is pathfinder based. So I'll post and would like feedback on if it's to good or not.

The 444th layer of the abyss, at first seems very hospitable. Moreover, indeed it is from the rolling plains to the idyllic forests to the crystal shores of it’s many lakes. How ever like all realms of the abyss not all is what it seems. Many predators will the layer as do demonic creatures of unholy lusts and endless desires.
In other words it is a land of cute fuzzy death. Many creatures on this layer charm and delude travelers . The halls of the demon lord of areas of relentless carnal lusts and endless feasts . The carnival of the flesh a never-ending testable held by the layers many fiendish satyrs , nymph and dryads often end with the unwary as the main coarse.
The creatures:
Tribbles are one of the most common creatures of this layer. Some are harmless other are very deadly, from the hive minded swarms to the flesh eating ones. Fiendish satyrs, nymphs and dryads dance and frolic in the many glades, indulging in dark and unending lusts
Deep within this layer, within a ring of stone in the heart of a forest of furry flesh the demon lord is at work. He has gathered items to his cause; he will create an item of power here, an item that will rival the gods themselves in power.
First he takes a rod crafted from the heart of the layers oldest and most decadent dryads tree, she was fun but like all things he her life is his to take at will. Next he pulls his ribs from his very chest binding the staff with his blood and essence. He works in iron from a clubhouse and bones dust from a undead kobold along with dust from the creators cult with the essence of theft.
Bone, hair and stone are worked from the land of the poodlelords and castings from the heart of a collective are added along with items from the court of a king. The demon lord then fashions a gem from his soul and the souls of ten thousand slain innocents. He polishes this orb with water from a pond and fills it with light of the purist sun and air of the mightiest wind.
With words best not spoken, he pulls forth power from the very layer as he uncorks a scared bottle and the essence of the untitled is mixed within the staff.
Holding up the item of his creation “It is done!” he exclaims as a ringing fills all the realms Libus Nakanum is born
Ok to me clerics are just that. They're the warriors of the church the crusaders of their faith. 3e never come out and class them that it hints at it but never spells it out.
Now in 2e it was spelled out loud and clear what they were. They are based off the knight templars, the Hospitalers and the Teutonic knights.
Lets look at them as a class. Now most church men be commoners or experts more then anything.
HD=d8 a good HD that puts them above both commoners and experts
Two good saves are not shabby at all
BAB is 2nd best in the game lets em be compatant in the battle field
Armor= they are trained in the use of all armors puts them on pare with the melee classes
Weapons simple+ gods weapon ...still some good combat weapons here
Skill points do not match a worldly bookish type but more the fighter and the paladins
spells= this is another area the cleric shines they have many uses to buff themselves and others as well as healing
so here is what i would ask how are they not holy warriors when thats the role they were built for?
The Keeper of Forbidden Lore watches the multiverse spine and weave. She watches tells turn, worlds spin and lives lived. She watches events unfold across the multivers .Sees the tales unfold, bears witness to victories and defeats. Records glories, sadness and shame of her subjects. Looks on in moments of greatness, and times of great loss.
Today she looks to another world, another when. Today her gaze turns to the world of Abeir-Toril. On the continent of Faerun in the region of Chessenta he gaze settles on the city of Korvosa . A place rules by an aging Mulan king and his young sembian queen. Here something is happening, soon the city will rock and events will change the region. She gazes upon those that will be center of this storm, those who will shape the things that are to come.
The city is muggy today as it often is. The streets are lined with people mostly of mulan decent with the odd turmish and chordathan here and there. The wind from the bay keeps the city cool in light of the last few rainless tendays. Ships from the nations of the sea of fallen stars line the harbor and there is a felling of unrest among the people of the city. Unease seems to seep from the dry clay brick of the walls of the city itself. The queen is not well liked, nor is her knights of the black hand. A knightly order dictated to the lord of tyrants often but people ill at ease. Combine that will the kings failing health and you get a tenderbox ready for the flame. And this is where you find yourself this muggy morning.
