Hi

I'm recently moved to Crosby and I am looking for a game.
I'm male and in my forties and have been playing various games for more than 30years
I'm particularly interested in Pathfinder or D&D 5th but will play other games too.
I would prefer evenings, Friday and Thursday will probably be best,I cannot guarantee more than about 90% attendance due to work and family commitments
anyone out there please?
thanks
R

no such thing as unbreakable!
give it to my three year old son and wait 2 minutes
my son also thinks he is god!

I am interested in joining

Dieros!
Thanks!
I like the character as he is (i would still like to be the heir if that is ok?)
and I dont think I can come up with a better name
so I will stick with Rolan Esse!

I never normally do this!
but Dieros can you help make my character up for me?
here is roughly what I would like
Animal Handling (4) ( Ride 5)
Endurance (4) (Stamina, Resilience)
Fighting (6) (long blades 8)
Status (5) (6 Breeding, Tournament, Reputation)
Warfare (4) ( 5Command, Strategy, Tactics)
Will (3) (Coordinate, 4 Courage)

other skills can be remain at two or go down a bit

this is very rough so please reduce my skills as you see fit

I am going for a knight type who is brash and naive
I dont mind him having some gaps in his skills

He is age 16

he should have the best armour available
a good horse
a manservant
two swords
a shield
and a lance

I really dont have much idea on how to create so please help!!

looks good
what are qualities and draw backs?

hi Deiros
i do not have the right book so i will need help
im thinking of an idealistic young knight type, fairly intelligent but not very wise,
Rav

This is all looking good, unfortuantely as i do not have the right book i cant offer too much help.
but it looks really good so far

my character will think that a better motto will be, "be the storm" rather than weather the storm!!

i like the coat of arms (does the cloud need to be dark grey or black??)

I think I may play a young idealistic type, 16 years old and not too wise, the rest of you will have to keep me out of trouble! and alive!!
Rav

i like scandal too
and perhaps the two heirs can both be 16 (im the older twin?)
and i can be very defensive when it comes to my father previous status!

just to say, im still here,
and it looks good so far.
I was also thinking of an heir character perhaps the firstborn if nobody objects, i assume that i have to "buy" this and then will have less to spend on other things
but im also happy for someone else to be firstborn (i have a sharp knife!)
but i dont have the rules (i have swords and socerey version)
Rav

hi, im happy for lots of help in building my house, i would prefer an area like westerlands, and will play a rogue, bard type without the spells! Btw, sorry but I cant post alot at weekends

I am up for trying this
read some of the books
and i like the idea of being part of a noble house
Rav

thanks for your answers, they helped!

how many creatures can an archer shoot through and still attack his target

an example a (medium size) archer is in a 5ft wide corridor
he comes across 3 (medium size) orcs, the front two are fighters the back one is a wizard so the archer shoots at the wizard, can he do this?
what is his minus to attack?
what if there are 4 orcs in front of the orc wizard (or 40!)
what if the archer has improved precise shot

what rules are pertinent to this?
what else needs to be considered

Sorry ulgulanoth! but i am going to have to pull out of the game,
I hope it goes well
Raven

How about a Carnotant paladin? Having been recognised by the gods will they follow one?
what are the equipment implications?

i usually play combat heavy games and tend to be light on the roleplay
but i would be up for trying this

is it 3.5 or pathfinder?

Bump!
anyone else out there?

thanks brock! it nice to know there are other gamers close by!

Hi!
I am looking to start up a game, preferably pathfinder but something else will do,
I dont really want to GM (on occasion maybe)
I work odd hours and can't commit to a lot
(I had a really good game here in Worthing but i had to leave because it started too early and i could not make it much of the time!)

My thoughts for this game are as follows;
we play in person at least once a month
and also use these boards in between games (to keep the continuity going), so this game will be a hybrid PHB and "normal" face to face game

I am thinking that we play from 8pm to about 11 or 12pm on a tuesday wednesday, thursday or friday

I probably need to others to make this work, one of whom will be willing to GM
any takers?

obviously the specifics are not set in stone and we can change times and frequency a bit

and please just reply if you live near me! perhaps we can come up with something else
Ravi

sorry people!
i am just so busy at the moment
but i dont want to stop the game so please give me a few more days and i will get back into the swing of things
thanks
Rav

Bump!

hiya!
i am struggling with keeping two games running (too much RL pressures) so i am stopping my other game, i have invited the other players to join us if they are interested. (they can possibly come in after this fight) two of the players are the same anyway

I will continue with this game on Monday (earlier if i have time)

hi people!
im really sorry but i am struggling to keep up with two games,
to many RL pressures so I am stopping this game,
again i am really sorry and thanks for playing this with me

my other game will continue and if any of you are interested i will find you a place in it
please have a read of it, its called Rav's drow adventure (there is also a discussion thread of the same name)
Raven

OOC are there any rules on sitting on a chair?
i tend to count it as half way to being prone
so its minus 2 on ac and minus 2 to hit
and a move action to stand up (that does not provoke an AOO)
what are peoples thoughts?

shal stands up and casts haste on all the pc's

Iniative

Char 20
Shal 20
-------
rogue 17
fighter leader 16
wizard 15
------
Ghaun 14
Vhorun 14
Miu 13
------
mercs 10

a figure suddenly appears next to charlyl it is a humam figure, lightly armoured, he attacks him with a short sword (he has one in each hand) and seems suprised when Charlyl dodges the blow

at the same time you here an order to attack and lots of mercenaries start running in

also the ones sitting get up

you see a human (w1)with 4 duplicates step in

L1 seems to be a bigger tougher version of the mercanaries
he and three others move very fast

this is the suprise round over

so its inaitive next

i will send you a map soon
but i have placed shal at o46
vhorun at q46
and ghaun at o 47

im not sure if vhorun is still in but we will keep his character running for the moment
Charlyl will you do vhoruns action in combat please?

you read though pharus' diary and look at some maps and you decide that you can work out roughly where the lair may be, Talwyn says that he has been to within 100 miles of there so you will only have to fly part of it.

Talwyn says "masters this mission seems sucidal, this white is very old and powerful, but if you are to face him then you shall not go alone, I will come also"

OOC any more comments?

I will assume that a couple of days have gone by

Gharz's player does not seem to be around so i will have him remain behind doing research

the giants and the pixie cant help much but they do point out that whites have the least magic of all dragons

thanks
can people tell me exactly where there characters are on the map
I am putting you on table p47

Miu? Vhorun? are you still in?

so what do people want to do?

another minute passes

perception checks from everybody please

you all have a great night

the Villagers thank you a lot!

through the use of a sending you get talwyn to open a gate

you are all back at home

what next?
what do you want to tell the giants or the pixie?

also you get 6000 exp

nice to have you back shaya!

The villagers kill of the remaining ogres,later they explain to you that they could take out the ogres and perhaps the Oni but the dragon was too tough for them, the dragon was so confident of its abilities that it let the villagers keep their weapons.

The villagers are very greatful and happy!
there is a major celebration and party
a charisma check from anybody who wants to do anything with the maidens!

there are no items of any note except for
a diary (the dragon's)

and a amulet of natural armour +2 that it was wearing

the diary names the dragon as pharus, he is a very bitter dragon who hates his older brother Grymach!
there is lots in the diary about killing Grymach, it also seems that Pharus was very small for his age and was bullied because of it,
there is lots of ranting and raving in it
but there is also a map!
that tells you where the lair of Grymach is
there is a comment "if you find this map please kill my brother! I hate him!"

i will wait for comments from everyone else before we move on, you have been in the tavern for a few minutes now

(what table do you go to?)

you all sit down and a waitress comes over, she looks nervous, she hands over some drinks, when she gets to Charlyl she whispers
"please leave, it is very dangerous for your kind here!"
the waitress then departs

Ungorr you hear sound of battle from the village, as you investigate you see the villagers attacking and killing off the ogres, the villagers seem quite capable and vastly outnumber the ogres who are in a state of panic

everyone sees three ogres attempting to run out the west gate but they are slowly peppered to death with arrows

what do people want to do now?

Gharz breathes fire on the oni that is already down,

Sherren attacks the oni that is still up
the summoned creatures all attack the oni that is still up
and Aurion attacks the oni that is still up

totaling up the damage...... the oni is down and out for a while
so we will go out of combat

you walk into the tavern and it momentarily goes silent

some people get up and leave, looking worried

you see that the tavern is fairly quite at the Moment
there are a few people sitting on the large tables eating, they look like tough mercenary types
there are two waitresses and a barman
what do you want to do?
who do you want to talk to?

the room is 15ft high and made with stone
(ooc any questions about the tavern)

new round

(the oni are on the whites iniative)

Gharz moves to AK 26 and casts confusion on the oni
sherren moves closer to them as do the summoned creatures

Aurion moves up too

oni two attack oni one and takes him down

the other pcs are up

Charlyl speaks up first, "I want to gauge the social & political climate of this place. Who's in charge, what is the relationship between the major power groups, etc..."

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 11

shame to waste a good roll! so

as you come up on the town you recieve unfriendly stares from some people or are ignored and in some cases people move away from you quickly.

the town is quite small, you see a tavern, a smithy,some shops a logging HQ and lots of homes, where do you want to go to first?

Charlyl also inquires whether the magic used to lighten their skin can be dispelled.

it cant be dispelled, the pigment is gone and will only come back naturally

Before they leave, Miu asks her aunt and uncle what would happen to their initial disguise when using a further magical way of disguising is used.

the intial disguise remains underneath and if someone does a true seeing they will see the intial disguise and think that that is the "true you"

Zarrosh, the white dies with you first strike so you may still move

(OOC Drumas has a vast library of knowledge on dragons, so essentially you all know a lot about them, when you check up on whites you will discover that older whites have DR V nonmagical weapons, i tell you this now because i will forget later!)

Heren,i can see the flyby attack feat causing me hair loss in the future! you manage to seriously damage both oni

new round (but i will wait for zarrosh's move action)
