I am going to take the lack of posts as saying this game is dead. Bye then I enjoyed it well it lasted.

I like the idea of the game. It's just that I have the impression that I am waiting for the week to be over so I can get on the other stuff.
Nodding to Min, Captain Fremont would respond calmly, "Our comrade here told us they are making contact with him through that gem there. We wipe his memory and put him back on the boat with that gem and watch him. They will come to us. Depending on what we glean from the situation, we can choose to continue to watch or take action." "ah I can wipe his memory, but I would have to wipe all of it. I don't have such a subtle spell as to be selective"
I have to say my interest in this game has waned quite a bit and I am in a few other games as well. Then again this game is going so slowly it does not take very much of my time to keep up with it.
"I could get them. Right now I could erase all of someones memory if I was touching them. I couldn't set it on a trigger."
"It is possible that his memory has been erased. It is a common trick with spys to cast False Alibi or other similar spells on them to make them forget when discovered. It is an effective way to stop them from giving away any secrets"
I'm waiting for captain Freemont to reply to your last post.
Sorry start of university term has got me more busy than I'd like. New students can be a pain. Do you happen to be one of my teachers? I study at ASU.
The will save on my detect thoughts is DC 20. You can send me a PM about what I get.
"Fine"
Don't know why people always want to do this the hard way. Maybe they enjoy being cruel?
"You don't really need to go though all this. I have entire teams dedicated to getting information out of people. You could out source."
"The need for the bait to appear convincing does limit the options somewhat. "Undead zombies do seem the best choice due to their expendability and human shape. How important do you rank the recovery of the ship afterwards? We could fill it with something explosive just in case anything goes wrong. We could also position some gas bombs on the deck of the ship. Zombies are immune to possion, but the boarding crew might not be. Also we should have some flash bombs so as to blind the Drow. Coordination will be key in this mission. Fortunately we have minions that can greater teleport and turn invisible. Actually if you offer a bit more looting privileges I can have the bone devils make an illusionary ship."
"You were created to be the perfect underling. Yes, do your creators proud and give us some excellent suggestions"
When he is finished "Now that we are working together I have some intelligence for you. The cabin boy of the name of Sabin on the ship Redrock is a spy. If you search his cubby you will find a psi crystal that he has been using to report the ships position after you find the psi Crystal can you send it to me I'm collecting them trying to figure out how to replicate them. In other news, The merchant Calahan Cormwel sunk a fortune into perishable goods and is unable to wait for a convoy or escort. He is setting sail from Eros Ecin to Tros T'kil. If you hurry you should be able to catch him."
"Yes. However I doubt the others will be as generous. Also the knowleage does not all go one way. I am going to expect you to send me reports."
Also what are Freemont's spells known? Don't see them on your char sheet. The first mate does not seem to have them picked ether. With this we have both sea and ground power. Unfortunate the enemy seems to have us beat when if comes to air power.
It would seem that way. It's funny though, Fremont clearly has plenty more to offer the group though. Like what?
"Yes. The offer is most generous. I might ask some other favors later but that is the gist of it." "Now if you agree to join us please prick your hand and let a drop fall into this bowl and say"
"our current goal is the conquest of of Varien empire. Most of the cities of they Varien empire are port cities and most of there supplies are shipped. I know the locations cargo and armament of just about all of these supply conveys. However I do not have the ships to act on this knowledge. In other words I want I want from you is what you are already doing. I just want you to do it more effectively. I want you to plunder more riches and then sell them in Here be dragons ports. I suspect that you will get a far better price here then you would get trying to sell them under the table elsewhere. So I want you to be more successful. I want to know if you can handle it."
"That is way I am even talking to you. That is why you are being offered the chance to join us because you both have things to offer each other. I believe that I have much to offer you and that you can offer a little to me. However if you do not feel that this is the case then don't let me detain you."
"You have heard what I offer in the present. Knowledge! It is the only thing worth anything in this world because it is the key to everything else. If you have more knowledge you can always do what is not expected. You can avoid traps. Every commander is only as good as his knowledge.
"I believe that your duty to your crew is to bring them success and riches. With my intelligence network working with you. You will know the location and cargo of every merchant ship that sails from this continent. You will have warning of navy attacks. It would be irresponsible to turn down my help. But also there is something else. I am sure crew enjoys their work. But will they still enjoy it when they start getting old and flexible? Right now you all they are locked into your course. If any of them want to retire they would always have to look over there shoulder in case of the law coming after them. If you join us your men will always have a friendly port of call. There will always be a place to resupply. Also if any of your crew have children that they wish to have another life I will see to their educations."
"You seem to be interested in Old Smoky. I must say it is one of my greatest works altho I can't claim full credit the others helped a little. It has most amazing regeneration." Min then demonstrates by chopping off one of Old Smoky's hands. "It is also completely loyal. Old smoky please tell the good captain just how grateful you are to be allowed to serve and demonstrate your incredible abilities."
Where is Fremont? Usually it new players are enthusiastic.
"Well it is nice to see you in person. I have heard so much about you. MIn fingers a folder with Fremont on the cover. "Did you really get eaten by a sea serpent and cut your way out? The reports are conflicting."
Maybe Vaklam could get his hands on alot of Caphorite Dust.
A bigger cloud? Move the Moon to block the Sun. Block the Sun with a giant dico ball. A huge Tent. Blow out the sun. I'm sure I can think of other ideas. Or are you thinking of a spell.
Well we already hold a sort of Mount Doom. I bet with a bit of persuasion it could be made to bleach forth a smog cloud to cover the land for miles. It worked in lord of the rings.
So LE with good publicity. Most of us are going for something like that at least in our hometowns.
I plan on spying on Samara. I want to steal his designs. Or better his command codes. Or even better kidnap him. All of this the first step to all this plans would be to insert an agent into his household or employee. James Bard is the obvious choice. Of course this has the problem of only leaving the Pugwhampi to spend the counter-fiet money and they don't look human. First goal for goal in kingdom Building is to make indoor plumbing complete with hot and cold water a thing. Second goal for goal in kingdom Building. I want to make an AI that monitors everything in my city and can correlate the data.
So when are you going to get to the kingdom building? By the way I doubt Bill is going to say no to your question. So you might as well stop waiting. He has not answered about half my questions. No reason to halt the game.
Why not be a Scarred Witch Doctor / Barbarian. I mean you were planing on being an Orc. They work very well together. Or maybe a Bard/ Anti paladin works very well with your death-metal axe of unholy power.
Hold the phone, folks! Is the deadline for submitting a character midnight? Yes. But sooner is better sense that gives us time to read it.
If you have finished the sheet can I see it?
Leadership is allowed, but you only get the cohort which uses a 15 point buy. Gestalt.
Deadline of tomorrow Wednesday.
Till wednesday.
Maybe he captured the flying Dutchman from Davy Jones. That why we haven't seen him till now he was busy doing that. If you are making a pirate you have to have a cool ship.
Agreed we could really use a full on marshal character. Someone who can lead an army charge from the front.
Maybe one of them will be a pirate captain bringing in a fleet. I plan on spying on Samara. I want to steal his designs. Or better his command codes. Or even better kidnap him.
How will we go about having the new people join our kingdom?
Well I was planing on taking over the Bone Devils in case.
Well Psionic are an established part of this campaign.
@Leonard: I would suggest you get a FOREIGN QUARTER to deal with all your devil population as well as the embassy from the forrest. As for other stuff it mostly comes down to a matter of taste. I wanted my city to be a big Academia so I got a university, bardic college, museum and a lot of libraries. I also liked the idea of my city having a rather small, but very advanced and wealthy population so instead of getting houses I got NOBLE VILLAs. I'm not quite sure what kind of city you are going for.
I don't really know any named Characters that are part of the Varien empire who are not the empress. Which is a little odd sense you would expect that I had looked into that.
No I did not relise that, but adding those stats in was not the improvements I was talking about. My sheet adds itself up.
I seem to be the only one to have completed the kingdom Building. I made some improvements to the document if anyone wants to use them.
Also Old Smoky I know you just said you don't want to use the optional rules, but I would rather like to get a Treaty with the forrest. We already have a embassy.
By reworking things and calculating I found that had +25 loy when I did the Inquisition check so I passed despite only rolling a 3. Same thing goes for the Feud. I not done yet, but I am glad I beat those two things. By the way Old smoky I have found a way to do Knowledge Psionic's Check. According to the Knowledge skill you can make untrained knowledge checks if you have access to a library. My Kingdom has some serious Lore.
