<p>Christoph listens and, despite the mutual incomprehension, tries to clarify, <b>"Yes, a message. Telling you that the Professor passed away. Faded, you said."</b></p>
<p><b>"Ah, you're saying Lorrimor was important to your people -the Kin?- and like with any other important person, many came to grieve?

<p><b>"It sounds like he was a true professor. A man of great knowledge and who knew many things. Did he visit the -ah- Kin to learn more about the islands and your people?"</b> Christoph glances sideways and watches carefully, <b>"Or something else?"</b></p>

<p>Christoph mouths silently, <i>"oyster cankers"[/b], before comprehension dawns, <b>"You traded pearls for your lessons? Hard gemlike shiny spheres"</b></p>
<p>He looks on, torn between sympathy, suspicion, and amusement, <b>"Many languages for many people. This is Taldan we're speaking. I also speak Elven -Kyonin Elven-, Skald, and..."</b> he trails off with a pained expression, then finishes, <b>"And Varisian"</b> </p>
<p>He's silent for a moment, wrestling down the old familiar screams and [i]sounds</i> that never seem to fade. Clearing his throat, he continues huskily, <b>"Maybe if you tell us how you got here? We can work back to where you came from and what we call your lands?</b> He adds mentally to himself, <i>If we know the name</i>.</p>

<p>Patting Jitters reassuringly as the horse rolls its eyes and tosses its head as the massive snake and it's rider approach, Christoph himself eyes the serpent warily. <i>She may ride it as easy as a horse, but that doesn't make it one.</i></p>
<p>"A complicated canvas rope, right..." He nods along with her rambling explanation with only moderate comprehension, his concentration split being making sense of her accent and avoiding Jitters bolting. He glances at the baggage she mentions and says, <b>"I see, so you're paying your respects to this Master Lorrimor? I assume the message wasn't good news if you're paying respects to him. Lady of Graves give your friend his due rest."</b></p>
<p>He rides in silence for a moment studying this strange elf that had joined their company. <i>If she's with the Way, she's some kind of good actor.</i> He asks conversationally, <b>"So who was this gentleman? Mister Lorrimor? It sounds like he was an expert of some sort or another. He helped your people somehow? And come to think of it, I'm not even sure I heard who they -your people- are..."</b> He trails off and waits.</p>

<p>[Spoiler omitted]</p>
<p><span class=messageboard-ooc>Current day - Marsduszi residence</span></p>
<p>Christoph sighs in relief as they make it to the hut and his pessimism is proved wrong. He <b>"I'm glad your hope was proved justified, Miss Belododia. I have the bad habit of always fearing the worst."</b></p>
<p>Trailing the others into the house, he positions himself to keep an eye on their horses -and snake- from a convenient window. Otherwise, Christoph let's those whose social grace might recommend them in good company break the bad news. He stays further back, and tries to avoid looming darkly behind the others in the man's hut.</p>
<p>He bows his head and murmurs, <b>"I'm terribly sorry for your loss, master Marduszi. Both miss Van der Geist and I are Pharasmin agents if you would like us to say some words."</b></p>
<p>Despite his best efforts, he finds himself constantly following Sunny's eyes as they flit about the room from shiny to shiny like a magpie. <i>If I don't break my habit of watching what my companions watch, I'm going to go insane. Kjell would be rolling and laughing if he could see me now - skurwielu.</i> He smiles fondly at the thought of his mentor.</p>
<p><span class="messageboard-dice"><b>K(religion):</b></span> <span class="messageboard-dice">1d20 + 12 ⇒ (6) + 12 = 18</span></p>
<p>He comes to the same conclusion as Aliseya after a moment's reflect. He glances at her, <b>"You're a font of knowledge, miss Belododia. I had to think on that for a moment before I recognized it."</b></p>
<p>Christoph, likely surprising no one, opts to 'rough' it as he has innumerable times before. He takes the time to prepare an alarm before he sleeps and keeps his weaponry close at hand.</p>
<p><span class=messageboard-ooc>Morning after</span></p>
<p>Waking refreshed, Christoph opts to spend his time before the funeral in meditative prayer. The past weeks had been trying and the familiar routine of silent prayer and readings from his worn copy of <i>The Bones Land in a Spiral</i> are a balm. After one unexpected and blushing encounter with Sunny's morning routine, Christoph makes a point of facing the hut for the remainder of his meditation. <i>Lady of Graves help me, have I met anyone sane since this quest began?</i></p>
<p>Relieved that propriety has reestablished itself for the funeral, Christoph offers his condolences a final time. At the ring, he shrugs and says, <b>"I only know that nobles are more likely to have the time to get into trouble that requires my attention. Not much else."</b></p>
<p><span class=messageboard-ooc>On the road after leaving</span></p>
<p>As they ride, he makes a point of keeping the newcomer in his sights. <i>She's coming with... but we never did figure out why.</i> His natural propensity for suspicion flares at the mention of the name Lorrimor. He asks, casually as a suspicious inquisitor can, <b>"Who is this Master Lorrimor you're looking for?"</b></p>
<p><span class="messageboard-dice"><b>Bluff:</b></span> <span class="messageboard-dice">1d20 + 0 ⇒ (12) + 0 = 12</span> <span class=messageboard-ooc>Dissembling doesn't come naturally to Christoph, but there's something to be said for beginner's luck.</span></p>

<p>Christoph lowers his bow and watches their monstrous foe for any sign of movement until Naught unceremoniously lops its head off. Nodding his approval, he finds himself confronted by the energetic elf and her outstretched hand.</p>
<p>Looking down, he pauses a moment before tentatively taking the outstretched hand with his free hand and shaking firmly. He elaborates, very slightly, on Aliseya's introduction, <b>"Speaker Christoph Metzger."</b></p>
<p>The Speaker returns his bow to its case with practiced ease as Sunny moves to the others in the group. With his stocky build and height, Christoph Metzger looms like a statue or gargoyle. With his black and red uniform, he would blend into the gloomy interior of the tower if not for all the webbing. His face, set in disapproval, may as well have been carved from rock for as much as it varied as he watches the proceedings.</p>
<p>As the investigation begins, he moves closer (though he warily eyes Chauncy as he does so) and studies the corpses. <b>"From what I know of weaverworms, it seems entirely likely they did eat them."</b></p>
<p><span class="messageboard-dice"><b>Heal #1:</b></span> <span class="messageboard-dice">1d20 + 10 ⇒ (13) + 10 = 23</span>
<br />
<span class="messageboard-dice"><b>Heal #2:</b></span> <span class="messageboard-dice">1d20 + 10 ⇒ (3) + 10 = 13</span>
<br />
<span class="messageboard-dice"><b>Heal #3:</b></span> <span class="messageboard-dice">1d20 + 10 ⇒ (1) + 10 = 11</span></p>
<p>Kneeling by the corpses, he opines distractedly (as Chauncy continues to move around), <b>"Neither is anyone I know. The woman was killed a few weeks ago and the man only a few days ago. Their blood was drained, but I couldn't tell you much more."</b> </p>
<p>He listens to Aliseya's explanation, then nods thoughtfully, <b>"If she's been gone for weeks and he's not been able to fetch water, I fear the worst. We could go and seek him out, though I'm curious why you think they live -lived?- nearby?"</b></p>
<p>As he says this, he notices the letter that Sunny and Zelda had identified. He steps over and takes it when they seem to leave it be and opens it carefully (with the aid of his dagger if needed).</p>

<p>Happy Thanksgiving to those in the states. I've had a few busy weeks of work leading up to a vacation this week and then I got Covid while travelling. It's been a mild case (congestion, mild cough, intermittent headache) but it and some weird technical glitch so that I couldn't login via my laptop delayed my posting.</p>

<p>Christoph gives off shaking his companion with an irritable grunt. <i>Brigh's buttocks! What a damn mess.</i> Before he can decide on his next course of action, a massive serpent -elf woman in tow- crashes into the glade and parks itself directly in front of Christoph and Zelda. Christoph's instinct outruns any conscious thought and he has an arrow nocked and ready to loose long before <span class=messageboard-ooc>(questionably)</span> rational thought has time to catch up. He holds off shooting as the elf women cheerily greets him and then slips away just as fast as she appeared. Leaving the gigantic serpent directly between Zelda and her apparent destination. For a long heartbeat, his fingers are ready to let slip arrow after arrow before he slackens his bow and grunts, <b>"No reason to think things would start making sense now. Damn forest..."</b></p>
<p>Potential crisis averted (for now), he catches up to the muttering women -<i>apple pie?</i>- and chants the prayer familiar from his earliest days as an acolyte, <b>"Lady of Graves, grant your guard against the wicked."</b> Tracing the Spiral, he touches Zelda on the shoulder and hopes <span class=messageboard-bigger>this</span> will work.</p>

<p>The whispering sounds of the harp echoing through the forest momentarily enthrall the Speaker.

<p>A sense of warning, like a bell going off and overriding the haunting melody, breaks his ensorcellment when Zelda breaks cover. <i>What on earth?</i> With the fog on his mind clearing, the overwhelming feeling of alarm makes the next deduction trivially simple. The Speaker curses, <b>"Dawnflower's dung! She's enchanted."</b> Sparing no further glance, he tosses Jitter's reins around a the knot of a tree and says, <b>"Be ready and make sure noone else follows. There's still that thing in the tree.

<p>With bow in hand, Christoph Metzger keeps a careful watch on his surroundings.

<p>He nods agreement with Rhia and opens his mouth to answer when he spots the serpentine creature at the same moment. Drawing an arrow, he slips from Jitters and tracks the creature with hands steady on his bow. <i>What was that?</i> He flushes slightly as he sees that Aliseya is correct. <i>Riding starkers in the forest. On a giant snake. Pharasma protect...</i></p>
<p>He glances at Zelda as she proposes to take the lead, then nods in acknowledgment. <i>She'll be better at it, I expect.</i> Keeping his hands on his nocked arrow, he follows behind her at a distance doing his level best to avoid making more sound then needed in the forest undergrowth.</p>

<p>Turning to the rest of our party, he gestures to the head of the trail and says, <b>"That looks like the Silent Path that the Judge told us about. If we push hard, we can be at Ascanor Lodge soon enough; a few days, perhaps. I think we'd best push in, but keep an eye out. It'd be an easy place for the Way to deal with us permanently and none the wiser. Never mind the natives who'll be in there."</b></p>
<p>Once he sees that the others are ready, he starts Jitters to walking with a click and a gentle tap of his heels.</p>

<p>Hello! I'm submitting the illustrious Flynwrick Greenbottle to join your merry band of cutthroats and thieves. This dashing gentleman halfling of the reknowned brewing family of Greenbottle. Impatient and with a mischievous streak, Flyn (as his friends call him) snuck away from his familial duty to help liberate his fellow halflings in Cheliax. As it turns out, fighting against the devil kingdom is hard work too but Flynwrick found he both: 1.) had a knack for fighting, 2.) found it exciting as long as the odds were better in his favor. Sneaking out of Cheliax, he found himself stowing away on some ship or another (they all looked the same at the time) and thus began the piratical adventures of Flynwrick Greenbottle, Dreaded Scourge of all the seas.</p>
<p>Here's where I'm going with the crunch. I still want to fiddle with equipment and spells, but this is indicative of what I'm trying to go for.</p>

Christoph, with further undead encroaching, can spare no more time for the wight descending the wall then a preternaturally quick swipe of his mace.

Recovering swiftly, he turns to the others and wordlessly bashes at the emerging wights. The gibbering voice, always lurking when he fought the undead, is tamped down ruthlessly as he focuses on what he's been trained to.

<p>Zoresk Sunspeaker is a Kellid (human) male Chosen One Paladin 1/Spirit Guide Oracle 1. His close blood ties to Sarkoris and unwavering devotion to the Dawnflower have marked him as a young man marked for greatness. Unassuming and devoted in his training, he's proven skilled in arms and at the healing arts. In recent months, he's been plagued by visions of destruction and death that he cannot explain. Any warning to his parents, members of the Crusade, or even his friends are met with polite doubt at best. His only solace as his warnings go unheeded is his childhood cat, Alyosha. Spritely and kittenish well beyond her twelve years of age, the black and grey cat is a source of solace and calm to the young boy. He feels a greater affinity then he ever has for her and swears he can sometimes feel her thoughts.</p>

<p>Christoph has no time to ponder the strange threads of fate that have lead him here and with these unusual companions. Instead he's focused only on the elimination of the remaining threat. Despite his increasing instability in flight, he looses arrows with furious speed. He begins to softly spin in mid air.</p>

<p>Thank you for setting up that chart. That's handy to have/know.</p>
<p>I had some problems with the translation from Herolab to my Paizo profile. They should be fixed now. On that note, Diplomacy should be a +8 not a +7 as I have two ranks in it.</p>
<p>Edit: I'm looking at my Herolab profile again and I'm not clear why it's got me at 14 skill ranks. It should be 12 I think (6 bard + 0 INT) • 2. I've got some hacks in place to add the half-fiend profile, but even if I remove all of those the SW has me at 14. Digging into the why more.</p>
<p>Edit 2: Aha! The Way of the Wicked trait I added adds ranks for my profession soldier that I didn't notice so I'm double counting those (it adds them to adventuring talents and not to background talents). I'll fix it and update in another post with the skill changes. Of particular interest, my profile by sheer luck had the right number of skill points (unlike my herolab profile) as I had 1 rank in Diplomacy and 0 in Spellcraft marked vs 2 and 1 respectively.</p>
Thank you for setting up that chart. That's handy to have/know.
I had some problems with the translation from Herolab to my Paizo profile. They should be fixed now. On that note, Diplomacy should be a +8 not a +7 as I have two ranks in it.

<p>The plan is to take 1 level of fighter and then investigator for all levels thereafter. With extracts, heavy armor, mutagens, and studied combat he should be an effective front line fighter who can bring some other utility. I'll probably be taking the Lamplighter archetype (appropriate for a guard) and focusing on fighting with a 2H weapon. If the party needs someone to deal with traps, I might take Empiricist instead (which also seems appropriate thematically). I used a quick crunch below for recruitment, but you can get a feel for how it'll look by checking in the profile.</p>

I've got a number of buffs handy (barkskin, mutagen, shield, studied combat, and possibly others) and should be able to hold my own there (AC 26+ and good attack stats with mutagen/studied combat). I should also be able to pass buffs out starting L6 when I can take infusion.</p>

<p>This is Rikash chiming in from the character being worked on. The bulk of the character is done, but there's a little fine tuning on skills and equipment depending on party needs. It's worth noting now that the low AC is unbuffed. After applying his misc layered buffs, he's quite a lot tankier (into the mid 30s without much trouble) and more damaging (also important to a tank to keep attention on him).</p>
<p>I'm still needing to type up the background, but the synopsis is something like this:</p>
<p>[Spoiler omitted]</p>
<p>A few more Qs:
<br />
1.) If I was looking to acquire more extract formulas, how should I pay for those? At 1.5 • scribing cost on the assumption I was able to find someone's spell or formula book to scribe from?
<br />
2.) Does the party feel like it needs face skills?
<br />
3.) Just to double check, background skills are not in use? I thought I saw one of the current players using them when I was doing some reading.
<br />
4.) Am I going to be badly crippled by not taking Technologist right now? My story has him just having arrived in Numeria with only theoretical knowledge of what he could find so it didn't seem appropriate. I could alter it if you think it'll be a problem.</p>

<p>Feeling refreshed and like himself again, Godfrey hummed a tune to himself as he picked his way through the inn to the appointed room.

<p>Entering the appointed room at the appointed time (a gentleman is always punctual), he looks over the softly gleaming cutlery gleaming in candlelight amidst lush velvet. He nods approvingly, <b>"You've done wonders here, my dear friend.

A small grunt of approval, and his eyes roll a little, <b>"Yes, this is indeed worth lingering on. And I for one haven't the slightest problem with you beginning without me. I'm afraid my normal routines have been thrown out of sync these last months and I fear I may never recover."</b> A sly smile grows as he continues, <b>"But of course, that's why we're here, isn't it?

<p><b>"He was, wasn't he?"</b> Godfrey muses as he mulls over the past days, little attention paid to his surroundings as he retires to the comfort of his mind. Conscious that his companion had said something else, he recalls the words with no little mental exertion. <b>"Ah, as for that I may not be anyone's idea of a cook, but I'd like to think to I can order a reasonable glass of wine. For my own part, I've no doubt I could drink pothouse swill and it would taste like ambrosia after our little foray."</b> A small self-deprecating smile and a shrug, <b>"I'm not much of an outdoorsman, so a return to civilization seems to be like returning to life itself."</b></p>
<p>Taking a moment to ensure they have privacy, he turns to more businesslike matters, <b>"I've been turning it over in my head. We dealt with that meddlesome dwarf. And the sickening of the garrison seems like it might be possible."</b> He begins to tick his ideas of on his fingers as he speaks, <b>"I overheard about that priest, Father Donnagin. He might warrant investigation if his banishing can give us useful leverage. Unlikely to be useful, true, but worth some time if we've nothing better. This Lord Havelyn is revered, but there's also some suspicions about him. If we can force him to leave, and a replacement to be sent too late to arrive, then that has merit. You've a knack for wheedling information, so that might be right up your ally. I can see what I can learn, of course, and perhaps more avenues will open to us."</b></p>

<p>At the edge of the town, Godfrey looks longingly towards the distant gate as Coloua motions them aside. <i>It'd be rude to simply ride off and leave her to speak to the air. And the others are already stopping. It can't take all that long.. probably.</i> Huffing a sigh, he turns his horses head away from the path towards civilization and reasonable creature comforts to listen to what his companion has to say. He nods in general agreement, adding, <b>"Rest first, certainly, but work shortly after. The two might be able to be combined. People who drink can be chatty."</b> </p>
<p><b>"For our alibi, it's well enough. I'd suggest we don't advertise it but instead only bring it out if asked. Better to not draw unwanted attention. The guards will not be missed for a time, so the less we make a memorable moment the better. I'll think on what else we can be doing. Certainly, we should be trying to sow as much dissension as possible. I seem to recall something about the other captains, but if they can be killed or otherwise rendered ineffective then all the better."</b> He shrugs and nods agreement with Ileosa, <b>"It would, and it would also rather ruin our personas. I'm afraid you'll have to tolerate my questionable company a while longer."</b> </p>
<p>As the talking dies down -and his own desire to be rid of all surroundings green and brown rises- he turns with his companions back towards the town. Inside, he is a man of simple tastes. Fine wine, a short bath to soak (having stayed meticulously clean with a little magical know-how), more wine, good food (the special was surprisingly good for such a backwater town) and a glass of wine by the fire leave him in a far better mood.</p>

<p>Dashing back a step as the entrails of the boar he eviscerated fill the space he'd just occupied, Godfrey glances around for any further attackers. Finding only panicking animals, his companions, and a gore-drenched Ella standing over the gutted remains of the boar, Godfrey chants a quick incantation and cleans his blade of blood. He offers to Ella, <b>"I'm afraid I can't help the wounds, but I can clean the blood after Ileosa has had a look. If she can't I do have some decoctions that could help."</b> </p>
<p>Noticing Ileosa's distraction, he offers, <b>"I can try and wrangle the horses if you would see to Ella. She's got some gnarly wounds that should be treated sooner then later."</b></p>

<p>Having fished out a coin, he waits for the second which he downs with less coughing now that his mouth and throat were nicely numbed.

<p>The third, and his final, drink goes down with little enough taste. His eyes begin to swim and he gulps back the sudden feeling of nausea that threatened to overwhelm him.

<p>Standing, with a dangerous wobble that is nearly a fall, he performs the most precarious bow any had seen and which might have been fit for a circus tumbler. Ileosa's guiding hand helps him back up from the bow and into a nearby seat where he promptly begins to nod off.</p>

He listens idly to the chatter around him, distracted by thoughts of the wealth of arcane lore he'd gathered that very morning.

Taking a moment to clean the dust of the streets from his face, he returns to the party's private room.</p>
<p>To Ella, when she returns, he says, <b>"I managed to track down much of what you were looking for. Some I copied myself and, of course, you are free to peruse my notes.

<p>With the rest of the group, he says, <b>"I think tonight would be best for starting Coloua's plan. We'll need to leave shortly when we hear back from Draa'lik and who knows how long those blasted dwarves will be here. If there is any information to be gleaned from them, sooner is better.

<p>After several hours of scrupulous labor, Godfrey sits back from his work with a satisfied grin. <b>"I think that will do.

<p>Whistling merrily, he makes his way out to the town and returns to the inn only to find that most of his companions have departed.

<p>When (if?) he finds the creature, he relays his instructions, <b>"There departed from this town a man with a retinue who you are to seek.

<p>Godfrey mulls the information gathered by his companions a moment, running his hand through his stubble distractedly. <b>"This tunnel certainly sound promising as a means of entering and leaving. We'll have to be sure it's not warded somehow. If it's common knowledge I have to believe it's either guarded or arcane warded. With the ability to enter and leave at will, however, we can certainly play havoc with the Watchwall's defenses."</b> A sly grin spreads on Godfrey's lips as he contemplates the many possibilities. <b>"As for this Varning, I don't think we can rely on him leaving again while we need him to. Better, I think, to leave in a morning or two and end his patrols in a more permanent fashion. With the patrol's bodies hidden, there's no reason to think anyone will find them before we can strike. It may even drain resources from the tower that we either eliminate piecemeal or leave alone. I'd suggest the day after next. We may even be able to enlist Draa'lik's assistance in the hunt. I have some additional purchases and preparation I'd like to do before we leave, so I'd suggest we leave the day after tomorrow if that is the route we wish to pursue."</b></p>
<p><span class=messageboard-ooc>The next morning, when we're ready for it.</span></p>
<p>Godfrey wakes early the next morning, eager to be about the business that brought them there. He is aware, however, that any successful endeavor of this sort requires careful preparation and ground work. To that end, he seeks out the arcanist he'd visited already to purchase access to new spells that will certainly prove useful. <b>"Good morning again, friend. After thinking it over, I have decided to have a look at those spells we've discussed. I found our conversation so enthralling that I simply had to to have a look at the arcane underpinnings of those spells."</b> Godfrey pauses, looking sheepish, <b>"The fact of the matter is, however, that I'm rather shorter of coin then I'd originally thought. I was hoping, one enthusiast to another, that you might allow me to transcribe a few of those spells from your notes to my own. I'd certainly still compensate you, of course, maybe on the order of twenty crowns per spell? I'd be very grateful."</b></p>

<p>After hours of chatting amiably with the town folk, Godfrey rejoins his companions in their private room with his face fixed in a sly smile. He listens to Coloua as he mentally runs over all he'd heard and seen that day. He answers Coloua while ticking off the rumors he'd heard with his fingers one by one, <b>"There is a work crew of dwarves, likely the same ones you heard about, who are working on the repairs for one of the watchtowers. Their leader, Barnabus Eisenbauch, is apparently fond enough of drinking contests to have developed a reputation. There might be something there if the repairs can be halted."</b> </p>
<p><b>"There is, apparently, a woman who prepares stew for the watchtower every week. Given how much people were talking about this grandmother's stew, it wouldn't surprise me if many of the guards partook. I'm no expert, but that seems like an interesting opportunity if we time the assault right and see that a special ingredient makes it into the stew."</b> Godfrey pause a moment, collecting his thoughts, <b>"The last I'm less sure about. The local priest was demoted from a fairly lofty position -bishop- and sent here. Why and how I didn't hear but that is a severe punishment that might warrant further probing."</b></p>

<p>Godfrey returns, satisfied, from his surveyal of the town's markets and shops. He'd spied several items that seemed likely and had purchased a few trinkets to complete his disguise as a travelling nobleman.</p>
<p><span class="messageboard-dice"><b>K(Noble) or ??? to find appropriate jewelry:</b></span> <span class="messageboard-dice">1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12</span></p>
<p>As he listens to the banter and the chatter among the cities elite, his thoughts wander from time to time to the blade and its mystery that awaits him back in the inn. <i>Ultimately, whatever befalls this city will be its just reward. Had the Mitrans simply left well enough alone, I would not be here plotting their death and destruction. Blinded fools.</i></p>
<p>The majority of the insipid chatter of the town's resident did little more then serve as background noise to the magus. But a few tidbits occasionally rewarded his patient small-talk and courtly manner. <i>A watchtower under repair? And a dwarven crew hard at work doing their best to make sure it is in good repair? We can't have that... can we? And a stew that all the guardsmen eat? What a shame it would be if they all came down sick after.</i> With a thoughtful smile, Godfrey returns to his shopping.</p>
<p>Some hours later, having located (if not purchased) most of what he had hoped to find, he returns to the inn to join the others.</p>
<p>Sliding in next to Coloua, he orders wine and listens to her report. He replies, <b>"Yes, I think it makes all too much sense to share all we've seen later. The town is really quite fascinating and its people have much to say. It wouldn't do to lose any of the gossip in all this noise, especially not when there's more people to meet!

<p>For his own part, Godfrey hadn't fully considered what he'd wished to accomplish in town before they began their work in earnest. <i>The bizarre green flash... and the wounds... something is very odd with my blade. It would be unwise to wait much longer, but it must for a time.</i> </p>

<p>Two expert cuts, two screams, and two deaths leave Godfrey facing only a single wounded combatant. Readying his blade, he readies himself to parry the man's blows but the sudden intervention of Draa'lik renders it needless. Struck by the unusual transformation of the creature, but with more pressing concerns, he turns to to aft of the ship in time to watch Ella rend the captain into pieces. </p>
<p>Chest heaving and grinning exultantly, he takes a moment to neatly slice the throats of the two sailors who'd been incapacitated by his spell. Wiping his blade on the cloak of one of the deceased, he pauses a moment to study it curiously. <i>What was that flash? And the wound was unusual as well? Could it be that the damned dwarf didn't explain the full power of what we wrought?</i> Frustration begins to bleed into his elation at their victory, but he sets aside the uncomfortable thoughts as he sheathes his blade. </p>
<p>He bows his head slightly to Triss as she heals some of the damage done by his enemies blades, courtly manner overriding any lingering resentment, <b>"Thank you, Triss."</b> Her cantankerous reply to Ella <span class=messageboard-ooc>(and him?)</span> earns her a scowl.</p>
<p>Catching his breath, he listens to the others go about their work. After a time he interjects, <b>"I think the sailor's gear would best go down with the ship. I wouldn't care to have to answer where we found eight blood-soaked sets of leather armor, for example. The rest we might as well keep for ourselves."</b> With a small grin, he adds, <b>"The whiskey in particular will be welcome."</b></p>
<p>He mulls over the fate of the ship, trying to gauge what he can recall of the area and their distance from the town.</p>

<p><b>"I think we'd best burn the ship with the captain and his crew aboard it. If we don't honor them, it can be no honor. We're disposing of evidence not celebrating a life well spent."</b> Godfrey continues after a thoughtful pause, <b>"I'm not sure if the cardinal would be upset or not, but I'd err on the side of following his instructions to the letter. He is our master... and we're bound to follow his orders. For the crew, if you feel it best to dump them overboard, we should ensure they can't rise to the surface. The last thing we need is the Talingardians asking what could cause <span class=messageboard-bigger>that</span>-"</b> he nods at the variety of gobbets of flesh that had been Captain Kargeld, <b>"-and being on their guard.

<p>Got the core of my crunch tossed in this profile. The two additional racial traits I think make the most sense right now are:</p>
<p><b>Fleet of Foot:</b> Between his natural dexterity and the irritatingly frequent chases his quarry lead him on have left him much faster on his feet then the average halfling. (30 ft movement speed instead of 20 ft)
<br />
<b>Driven Worker:</b> As a son of a family of brewer's, Flynwrick still has an incredible knack for the making of a variety of fine alcoholic beverages. His own love for alchemy has only refined his skills. (+4 racial bonus to Prof[brewer])</p>
<p>The basics of my background are:</p>
<p><ul>
<br />
<li>Born to a family of merchant brewers. Flynwrick (Flyn) found himself fascinated by the science of his family's trade.
<br />
<li>He sought, at earliest opportunity, a way to study in greater depth the science behind what his family did by instinct and tradition.
<br />
<li>Sought to learn at university, but was forced by circumstance and hardship to take up the sword to earn his keep.
<br />
<li>Grueling years of study and as a mercenary (often as a tough in seedy bars) finally granted him his wish (mastery of the alchemical). It's also where he picked up his knowledge of the seedier side of city living.
<br />
<li>After graduating, he has traveled and earned his keep as: a travelling herbalist's apprentice, a caravan guard, and most recently as a private detective. His unique set of skills and his wanderlust make the itinerant role perfect for him.
<br />
</ul></p>
<p>I would appreciate any thoughts you might have, ALLENDM, on particularly appropriate locations for him to hail from. I'm having a bit of a hard time determining where his family would likely originate. If there are any schools of study you might know of, that also would be helpful. One other question I had was in regards to the purchase of additional extract formulas. Should I be buying a scroll and then scribing that? Or would I have much likelihood of finding a wizard or fellow alchemist/investigator to copy extracts from?</p>
Got the core of my crunch tossed in this profile. The two additional racial traits I think make the most sense right now are:
Fleet of Foot: Between his natural dexterity and the irritatingly frequent chases his quarry lead him on have left him much faster on his feet then the average halfling. (30 ft movement speed instead of 20 ft)
Driven Worker: As a son of a family of brewer's, Flynwrick still has an incredible knack for the making of a variety of fine alcoholic beverages. His own love...

<p>Here's what I'm currently thinking about. If I go down this route, I'd need GM dispensation to have both a Black Blade and a familiar at the same time. Take a look at the Black Blade spoiler and let me know what you think. If the idea (which I think is pretty neat) isn't kosher, then I'll rethink the build (probably dropping the VMC for a free Bladebound archetype). Note I've just got a brief synopsis for my backstory. I'll type it up in a prettier fashion a bit later. By the way, what kind of timeline do you have in mind for wrapping up recruitment? I didn't see anything in either this thread or <a href="http://paizo.com/threads/rzs2v6op&page=1?Dun-dun-DUHHHH-Due-to-player-attrition-I-need" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">the other thread.</a></p>

<p>Hi GM Kobolum, I wanted to clarify if every character will get +2 skill points per level. I seem to recall that being something generally recommended by the AP. I don't see those listed in the build rules and I'm assuming you're not using them? I'm working on a Magus concept, but skills will be a bit tight and I wanted to clarify before I got much further.</p>

I'm still writing up my background (mostly editing remains) and I'll have it together by tomorrow night. The basic idea would be that he's a commoner who escaped his family's destitution (via luck and patronage) to study in the arcane schools in the Chu province and has since returned to Changdo. He seeks to do what good he can by proving indispensable to the movers and shakers of Po Li. With a network of contacts from his days in Changdo's streets, he may well be able to do just that as well.</p>

<p><span class=messageboard-ooc>At the toast.</span></p>
<p>Obi-wan politely declines the Whyren's Reserve, <b>"I apologize, but Padawan's are... discouraged... from consumption of mind-effecting beverages. I've not a taste for it anyway, and a Jedi spluttering at a sip of whiskey would rather spoil our image. I'll happily toast to our successful rescue of her Majesty with you, however."</b> He inclines his head to Queen Amidala with a smile.</p>
<p><span class=messageboard-ooc>Landing on Coruscant.</span></p>
<p>Obi-wan, though outwardly calm, was expending significant mental effort to stop himself from nervously pacing. He'd been watching Anakin, sure that it was not his place to broach the young man's force sensitivity (or, more appropriately, thunderous potential), but unable to ignore the raging torrent of the Force constantly swirling around him. With the hour of his return to Coruscant at hand, he found himself eager to be away and to the relative calm of the Jedi Temple.</p>
<p>Gathering as they make their final descent, Obi-wan bows his head to the Queen <span class=messageboard-ooc>Sabe, though he doesn't know that</span>. <b>"I appreciate your kind gesture, your Majesty, but your safety is still our foremost concern. If Captain Panaka feels it appropriate, we would be happy to act as a proceed ahead as a guard until you are safe.</b>" </p>
<p>Any of his own nervousness is quickly calmed when he spots Masters Windu and Yoda waiting of their arrival. <b>"Of course, with Masters Windu, Yoda, and Gui-gon at hand, I would not envy anyone wishing you harm."</b></p>
At the toast.
Obi-wan politely declines the Whyren's Reserve, "I apologize, but Padawan's are... discouraged... from consumption of mind-effecting beverages. I've not a taste for it anyway, and a Jedi spluttering at a sip of whiskey would rather spoil our image. I'll happily toast to our successful rescue of her Majesty with you, however." He inclines his head to Queen Amidala with a smile.
Landing on Coruscant.
Obi-wan, though outwardly calm, was expending significant mental effort to...

<p>Obi-wan smiles as he listens to the Gungan's analogy. <i>The first time I've heard the Jedi compared to fish, but it is apt.</i> He replies, <b>"To learn to control the Force is to learn to swim calmly, serenely.

<p>Though glad to see his master unhurt, Obi-wan still exhales heavily as Gui-gon confirms what he had come to suspect. <i>The Dark Side of the Force... Yoda and the other master had long warned us of its temptations but to feel one who's fallen under its sway.</i> The young padawan remembers himself and replies to his master, <b>"Of course, Master. I meant no criticism and I will be ready, should we see him again. As for that young man, Anakin, he was caught up in our escape. We were in his shop when we were warned of the Mandolorians search for us. He agreed to come with us to repair the ship. In truth, it strikes me as being for the best. He is... strong in the Force. Stronger then any other I have sensed before, perhaps even master Yoda. But there is something about him that nags at me. He is strong, but something is... off... about his power. I could not place it, but my intuition was that there was an element of danger, perhaps, about him. I don't know how better to describe it, Master."</b></p>

<p>As far as the DSP stuff goes, it seems fine to me. The core of it seems to come down to: respect life and don't abuse the Force aggressively. To clarify though, I'm being somewhat aggressive here as Obi-Wan. I'm trying to knock the guy out of the fight (preferably not kill him unless that's the only way out). At what point would using Force Thrust on a sentient creature earn my a DSP? Off the top of my head, I would imagine shoving someone off a cliff or into a smelting foundry (or similarly dangerous environmental) that is basically guaranteed death would count. To extend the question, what if that's the only way to save my or anothers life?</p>

<p>Looks like I'd be stuck with the first roll, based on what all the other folks in the same boat are doing. I'll take the point buy, that being the case.</p>
<p>I'm thinking of a half-elf whose ancestors fled in The Retreat and who's past is lost to tale. All that remains is a battered family blade bearing a crescent moon and setting sun on opposing sides of its pommel [Ties to Labelas Enoreth and Corellon Larethian). Mechanically, I'm thinking he's an Urban Bloodrager/Bladebound Hexcrafter Magus. Obviously the family sword eventually reveals itself to be intelligent and fun times ensue. The Hexcrafter portion is minimal and is primarily being taken to tie in the overarching theme of luck/fate. I have some ideas for the curse aspect tying back in to the realm's fate and the intelligent sword's background. The Bloodrager bloodline is obviously Destined, given the above.</p>

As they pass through a series of seemingly abandoned loading docks in an industrial zone, Obi-Wan pauses a moment at a terminal that was still up and running. A moment's work and he jury rigged a program that would set off an alarm on the far side of the compound should any of the doors open. He leaves just enough time before the subroutine kicks in for the group to make its way out of the factory.

Turiel has no time to consider the voice's declaration as he continues to fight. His inefficacy in attacking the creatures infuriates him and the lightning arcing along his blade rises to a new crescendo of fury as his eyes begin to glow...

The torturous sound continues to grow and Turiel grows dizzy even as he watches in horror as Simeon, his lifelong friend, is petrified. Gritting his teeth, he shakes off the stupor of the ethereal wail and drops down the rope to a scene of horror. <b>"SIMEON!"</b> </p>
<p>Unsure what to do, he just gazes numbly through the spot where Simeon had stood a moment before, numb to the world as he grapples with what he is seeing. Jerry's furious outburst fails to snap the elven mercenary from his stupor, but the sharp crack of the sphere breaking open does.</p>
<p>The presence, silent through the night, wakens at the same time that Turiel snaps from his haze. <i><b>"Your friend may be dead, but you and your other friends may yet live. Draw me and let us avenge your friend who was taken so cruelly."</b></i></p>

Yelping, he tries to leap into the cover of a boulder but catches his foot and has a branch blown into his arm for his trouble as he tumbles to the ground. Saying a few choice curse words in Elvish, he stands and winces as he probes his arm. The previously still night air sets the nearby trees to rustling as a brisk breeze seems to spring from nowhere. <b>"I'll be fine, have had worse and lived to tell the tale."</b> Running over a quick mental checklist, he asks, <b>"Jerry, you doing alright?

<p><span class=messageboard-ooc>Alrighty, I'm here! Thanks again for accepting me, RLC.</span></p>
<p>An elf picks his way through the crowds of Hescoy, leading a horse carefully through the bustling villagers. Tall, over two meters, the elf cuts an imposing figure that's oddly out of place with the cheery villagers. Dusty from the road, his long traveller's cloak doesn't conceal a veritable armory hanging from his belt and backpack. His breastplate shines dully through a layer of road-caked grime, accentuating broad shoulders and muscular arms. Turiel, distracted as he tries to remember the way to the cabin, is oblivious to the many glances his appearance is drawing from the villagers. An old woman, sitting in a rocking chair and darning a sock, tuts disapprovingly as he walks past. <span class=tiny><b>"What in the name ... armed to the teeth before the celebrations..."</span></b></p>
<p>Turiel doesn't seem to hear (or perhaps he ignores) the trail of muttering and disapproving townsfolk that he leaves in his wake. Once clear of the village, he mounts his horse and starts her to a canter with a gentle flick of the reins. Patting her neck, he says, <b>"Not so very long now Kipina. It should be just up the road a little ways. Here's hoping they've laid out something cool to drink. I didn't think we'd make it in time but you've done well. Taking that last job might've been imprudent, but the coin and the supplies it bought were welcome."</b></p>
<p>The road passes along the edge of the village, and it's only a moment or two before the familiar cabin comes into view as he rounds a familiar bend. <i>It's been a while, but it doesn't seem to have changed.</i> A stirring in a newly discovered corner of his mind, <i><b>"This place? It is important to you?"</b></i> Still unused to the sensation of hearing another voice in his mind, Turiel jumps in his saddle, nearly tipping out of his seat. He nods, then realizing that might mean anything to the... presence... he replies mentally, <i><b>"Yes"</b></i> The presence subsides, apparently satisfied. </p>
<p>As he rides closer, he sees his friends, seen only in memories these last few years, outside the cabin, chatting. Smiling happily, he calls out in a booming voice, <b><span class=messageboard-bigger>"Ho the cabin! Better late then never!</span> I got a bit tied up dealing with a few goblins. Illyan, Spooky, good to see you! And you, Crow, Persephone... Jerry."</b> He waves, <b>"And you Simeon. Am I the last of us or were there a few other stragglers?"</b> Spotting the raptors, he nods and looks around, finally spotting Abbicka, <b>"I'd have been surprised if you were late, Abbicka. Good to see you too!"</b> </p>
<p><span class=messageboard-ooc>I'm thinking for now that the Blade hasn't deigned to give it's name. It's intelligence should be an air elemental or something like that, and it's a little standoffish. Do you want to play it going forward, RLC, or should I? Could be a useful plot device if you do, but it's also more work. :P</span></p>

<p>Ok, here's Rikash's alias for submission. Turiel Sahkoinae is a Bladebound Magus/Primalist Air Bloodrager gestalt. He is built around a lightning theme and I have his crunch done. His fluff is mostly together, but I'm not sure about how to best tie in his intelligent weapon (name needed) to your world. It will have its own goals, so it would be helpful if those aligned with Turiels (see some notes below). I need to head to bed now, but hopefully this is something to get started. If selected, I'd be happy to flesh this out a lot more (and will do so tomorrow after work if you haven't already selected someone). Also, as a heads up in case it impacts selection, I'm moving across the country starting next week. I will be able to post, but it will be more sporadic until roughly the end of the month.</p>

<p>Laying a cautionary hand on the young man's arm, he looks significantly at where Anakin conceals his weapon. Without looking away, he replies to Ralk, <b>"There should be no problem.

<p>No longer caught off guard, Obi-wan opens his mind to the light of the Force.

To one trained in the ways of the Force, that vague unease was implicitly to be trusted and allowed to go about its own way.</p>
<p>Something, he was unsure what, nagged at the back of his mind. Clearly the boy had tremendous potential, but the way he seemed to draw the Force around him like a sponge drawing water left no doubt in Obi-wan's mind as significant. </p>
<p>Accepting the water from the youth, Obi-Wan asks in as casually an off-handed manner as he can manage, <b>"That's impressive, to have built both a podracer and a swoop bike with only parts at hand. I don't suppose you ride as well? It takes quite a bit of skill, one without fast reflexes could end up badly hurt."</b></p>

<p>Before he can take a moment to slip away to contact Gui-gon and to inform him of the boy and to check on his nagging doubt, the man bursts into the room. His hand reflexively moves towards where his lightsaber is concealed, but he checks himself when he sees he doesn't have a weapon. Seeing Ralk's waving, he kneels out of sight of the door, his hand free and eyes wary.</p>

<p>Obi-wan's face flushed at Kyra's inquiry and the young man's offer. <i>To let my emotion's get the better of me like that... what would Master Gui-gon say?</i> Composing himself, he bows slightly in reply and says, <b>"I should be fine, thanks you. I think it must have been the heat, as our new friend here is saying. I appreciate your offer."</b> Taking a glass in hand, he draws a little water from the container and sips it, watching the young man quietly. <i>I must clearly inform Obi-wan, but his potential is remarkable. We cannot seek to speak to the Council. Not on a mission like this one. And to leave him... but he is so old...</i> </p>
<p>Uncertainty and anxiety bubbled through the calm composure that Obi-wan had just regained. Taking a deep breath, he suppresses the unwanted emotion as he clears his mind of distraction. Focusing on the boy, he watches, trying to learn what he can of him before they must leave.</p>

<p>The vague feeling of unease that their escape had engendered was still with Obi-wan as the small party left the ship. In a surfeit of caution, Obi-Wan pulls the hood of his cloak up despite the heat and conceals his lightsaber in a pocket. Fairly confident that he will not draw more attention to the group then any other off-worlder, Obi-wan focuses on keeping a wary eye on the crowds that they pass through in their search.</p>
<p>Entering the small parts shop at the trailing end of the party, Obi-wan glances around the room with curiosity. Normally he would have liked to have a look at the various tech on display, but he found his eyes inexorably drawn to a boy.... a young man, really, who was now looking them over with obvious curiosity. His breath catches in shock as he finds himself caught in a whirling maelstrom of the Force. The normally placid and idle flows of energy that constitute the Force were now a raging and dangerous sea, with the boy in the eye of the storm. Even as the young man's eyes stay locked on Sabe, Obi-wan focuses on him. <i>Unbelievable... not even with Master Yoda... how?!? And this boy?</i></p>
<p>The storm dashing Obi-wan's focus to bits is broken a moment before the youth speaks. Feeling suddenly worn, Obi-wan draws a deep, slightly ragged breath. Feeling as though he'd just been tossed on shore after being dragged around by a rip tide, Obi-wan broke his stare and left Ralk to the purchasing while he thought. <i>We are forced to land on this world, a backwater really, out of hand and now I find a young man who is so strong in the Force? It could be a coincidence...</i></p>
<p>But even as the thought formed, Obi-wan felt a certainty that this wasn't the case. It was destiny that had forced his path to converge with this young man's.</p>
<p><span class=messageboard-ooc>Just some staring for now. Obi-wan was caught completely off-guard by the presence of someone so strong in the Force.</span></p>

<p>He allows himself to be maneuvered around by the formidable Guardsman, mulling over the flask as he goes. When asked, he starts without hesitation, <b>"It's been a tiring afternoon.

<p>Aware of Augustine's proximity, Raphael pauses and considers for a moment before continuing, <b>"An aforementioned threat was found within him and with the help of a few of our good friends were able to constrain any ill effects.

I'd suggest you make that an order to avoid an altercation, and perhaps to prevent tragedy.

A nagging feeling, that something wasn't quite right or that something was just around the proverbial corner. Waiting for him.</p>
<p>His reverie was broken by Gui-Gon's inquiry, and he returns his attention to the matter at hand. <b>"I'm afraid I don't recall much of anything about this world, Master.

<p>His musing was interrupted by the rushing arrival of the guard. He nods his approval as he sees the formidable Francis Albert enter the warehouse. <i>Hrm... I think my duty here is clear, though I doubt I will make a friend in the doing.</i> </p>
<p>Watching him for a time, he approaches in a relatively quiet moment. <b>"Greetings, Monsieur Albert. I don't wish to interrupt your work longer then I must so I'll be blunt.

<p>Obi-Wan spares a grimacing glance at the fallen Mandolorians, but sets aside the surge of emotion and reaches for the soothing calm of the Force. Turning away, he moves towards the door and Gui-Gon's waiting guard, saying, <b>"Agreed, we should leave at once. Perhaps Master Gui-Gon and I should take point, Captain."</b></p>

<p>Still interested and absorbing as much as I can of the system as possible. I have a tentative outline for how I want to build Obi-Wan. I wanted to clarify something about Force Training. In the game, you get 1+WIS modifier powers that go into your suite and you can take the feat multiple times to get more powers. Your house rule extends it to 1/2 char level + WIS modifier, but can we still take it multiple times for more powers (that'd be from 7 to 14 in my case at level 7 with WIS 18).</p>
<p>I also though it was a bit odd that Persuasion isn't a class skill for the Jedi, is that intended or am I missing something somewhere?</p>

<p>Updated my crunch to meet the character build rules you outlined. My backstory is also now one I'm much happier with. So far as my Black Blade goes, I'm flexible but wouldn't mind a scimitar or cutlass that has some sort of ties to Varisian history (I plan to take the fortune hex as a sort of 'Harrow' ability). I figure we can discuss this some more should I be selected. :)</p>

<p>[Spoiler omitted]</p>
<p>As far as my black blade (Bladebound) and hexcrafter archetypes go, I was thinking that he found the unusual blade (which didn't detect as magical) in a magic shop. The cutlass is marked with Desnan butterfly and is obviously high quality, but it's origin is unknown. It was found as part of expedition into Thassilonian ruins and it's unknown how long it was there. <b>@GM stormcrow27</b> How would you prefer to handle its further backstory and intelligence? Would you want to incorporate that into your plans for the game (if I am selected) or should I think more about the nature of the blade?</p>
<p>I'll post again when I'm happy with a better written version of the above.</p>

<p>I would like to submit this character for consideration. I'm wrapping up the backstory now, but all the crunch is in place.</p>
<p>As a brief synopsis: </p>
<p>[Spoiler omitted]</p>
<p>This is a rough outline of where I'd like the character's history to go. He's personally shy (a legacy of his childhood), but clever and with a fondness for stories from history. </p>
<p>I'm not sure how you want to handle the black blade, precisely. I like the outline above (which helps explain my archetypes), generally, but I imagine we'd discuss it a bit more if I'm accepted. Mechanically, I think I'm a good fit. I can handle traps and have a fair bit of utility beyond melee thanks to my magic. If the group felt it needed additional healing, I can do that too (via the healing hex). My hex right now (flight) can be changed out depending on what we think we need.</p>

<p>Raphael makes a mental note of the space given to the unusual Tizonan and makes a point of maintaining it. <b>"I am glad to hear it, Reyes. I, of course, must be Raphael instead of sir, however."</b> He smiles disarmingly at the man, returning the man's continued gaze levelly.</p>
<p><b>"I'll be sure to keep that in mind, Monsieur Langlais."</b> He smiles and quips, <b>"If I can help a worthy cause by making a spectacle of myself, then surely there is no better use of my time?"</b></p>
<p><span class=messageboard-ooc>I seem to recall having badly botched a knowledge roll for Mirabelle, so I'm probably going blind into danger. C'est la vie? :)</span></p>
<p>Raphael leans closer to Estelle to hear her whisper, inclining his head once to indicate he'd heard. He whispers back, serious and then teasingly, <span class=tiny><b>"Any friend of yours is a friend of mine. It's a shame that she won't like me, but perhaps my charm may win her over?"</b></span></p>
<p>He greets the new arrival with a polite nod and a disarming smile, <b>"Raphael Montefiore, attorney and master of a trading company of little note. It's good to meet you, mademoiselle..."</b> He trails off and waits for a more full introduction.</p>

<p>Augustine's booming voice cuts through the low chatter of the crowds and Raphael looks up from his conversation with Estelle. He listens to Augustine's speech with interest, nodding approvingly and clapping heartily in reply. He remarks to Estelle, <b>"I can see why you asked for his assistance, he has quite the way with words. It is a remarkable thing you and Monsieur Blightguard have put together tonight. The good men and women of Durendal together seeking to combat the misfortunes and iniquities which afflict our fellow countrymen."</b></p>
<p>During the auctioning of Valentina's clockwork spy, Raphael makes a few bids for the item, hoping to prompt a greater spending on his friend's work. He clicks his tongue in vexation as the bidding trails off. He comments in a whisper to Estelle, <b>"Her work is rather remarkable, so it is a shame to see it so sadly-"</b> He is cut off by Mirabelle's bid. By the end of the furious round of bidding, he nods approvingly and waves to Valentina, mouthing, <i>Congratulations.</i></p>

<p>Raphael watches the bidding, chatting amiably with those around him. When Estelle makes her bid on the Tall Tail Inn, Raphael raises an eyebrow at her, but says nothing. After she's outbid a final time, he raises a hand and offers, <b>"Five hundred gold pieces, even, I think."</b> </p>
<p>After the bidding has moved on, he whispers to Estelle, <b>"After the effort you've put into the good work tonight, I should think you deserve a pampered stay at Marcus' exquisite inn.

<p>I think my answer depends on how long til dawn. If its a short way off (less than an hour maybe?), then perhaps we can pursue, but otherwise I'm inclined towards waiting for morning and trying to pursue them a bit then.</p>

<p>Roderick joins the others without a great deal of ceremony, taking a seat and accepting a plate of food with only a muttered, <b>"'Ello, m'and thenk hu."</b> If it has registered in his mind that Alsatia is the one serving him, he doesn't show any signs of it. From his rumpled, soot-stained clothing and bloodshot eyes, it seems unlikely that Roderick slept in his bed the night before. Taking the steaming carafe filled with piping hot coffee, Roderick pours himself a mug, downs it despite the scalding heat in a few quick gulps, then pours another. To the second mug, he adds the contents of a vial produced seemingly from nowhere and drinks it more slowly. </p>
<p>Seeming to perk up as he finishes his second cup of coffee in as many minutes (and whatever he put into the second), he digs into his food, watching Connor relay their story. He chimes in with a surprisingly chipper voice, given his appearance, when the cannons are mentioned, <b>"I do have a theory, but my notes are in the lab. After the rest of the story I c'n grab em."</b> </p>
<p><b>"In addition to blocking all magic and psionics, the field's a ticking time bomb for the island. Any that destabilizes it is likely to create a very large arcane backlash. I would prefer to be very far from the island when that happens."</b> Despite the scale of the destruction he is describing, Roderick is nearly nonchalant as he continues to chew on a piece of bacon.</p>
<p>He interjects as Connor summarizes, saying, <b>"I think characterizing our cover as blown is overstating the situation. We were held by a harpy with a propensity for skinning alive or beating to a pulp her enemies. We had a demonstration of the latter, by the way. We simply told a few half-truths to lend some credence to our story."</b></p>
<p>Finishing his meal around the same time as Connor finishes talking, he listens with rapt attention to Alsatia's explanation of the political blowback from the situation. <b>"At the least, I would like to think that in killing Klivant's crony, we've delayed whatever Stalmortan plans were being hatched. If the harpy can win a crushing victory, that would certainly resolve the situation. Have I mentioned I've a strong distaste for House Stalmorta?"</b></p>
<p>To her last question, he replies, <b>"Another gun or two wouldn't go amiss. Perhaps a few more psionically attuned supplies for Connor. Depending how long we will be unoccupied, I might need more alchemical supplies and crafting equipment. If you intend for us to be here long term, a proper lab room wouldn't go amiss."</b></p>

<p>He pauses, holding a reverent hand to the newly laid stone for a moment, as his gaze sweeps up to the vaulted ceiling above. He follows the others, standing to the side while the sheriff speaks with Father Zantus. He nods approvingly as the holy man offers to accompany them. <i>Perhaps they are not so different here as the stories would have you believe. Their gods demand much of their holy men, just as the spirits and our totems demand much of me. This Father Zantus is an honorable man.</i></p>
<p><b>"Forgive me, Father, Sheriff, but I am not familiar with these lands or your people. Are there any we might expect to wish harm on your town? There is some lurking evil, if the goblins are to be believed, directing the attack here. Is there a rival tribe or... town?... nation?... I am not so sure of your terms, who would seek your town's destruction?"</b></p>

<p>Quick clarifying question, how high are the walls of the ruins, generally? </p>
<p>I'm thinking we keep our camp in the middle of the ruins with the horses tied up near the entrances to the center of the square. I've moved them to roughly what I was thinking of. Thoughts on this layout?</p>
<p>Edit: As I have it now, Wilhelm and Natalie are on watch and the others are in place to prove they can actually fit. Horses are set up nearby at the main approaches to the sleeping folks. Guards are placed to maximize their field of vision, while staying in decent cover to make them harder to spot. The downside is that they're not next to each other for support if they get snuck up on.</p>

<p>Roderick, having unpleasant memories of the authorities in the council's control, stays out of the way belowdecks when they make their inspection where possible. With the ship in working order, he is left to his thoughts to the task to which he'd been set. <i>I hadn't expected it, but there is a a degree of excitement to this work. The onerous authority imposed on us still chafes, but to see theory put into practice has been enthralling. Perhaps this assignment is not so bad as it might have seemed at first. It certainly beats rotting in a cell.</i></p>
<p><span class=messageboard-ooc>@ the house</span></p>
<p>The discovery that Rory and Elara had fed squashed some of Roderick's good mood and he grunted a sour reply in agreement with Alys, <b>"After saving that blowhard's arse, you would suspect that he'd have the courtesy to do that at least. I suppose that was not was of his defining traits, but it's still annoying. I might have expected better of Elara, at least. Either way, I'd rather not have someone with doubts guarding my back, so their departure isn't entirely tragic."</b> He shrugs in reply to Connor's speculation, <b>"I was belowdecks with the engines avoid the Council's finest where I could. It's possible they charmed their way aboard, but who knows. I doubt we'll have heard the last of Rory at the least. I suppose this makes you the Captain, boss?"</b> Roderick flashes an exaggeratedly innocuous smile at his 'cousin'. <b>"Either you or Alys are the natural choices, of course."</b></p>
<p><span class=messageboard-ooc>After talking and over the next few weeks.</span></p>
<p>Roderick, finding that he would have a few weeks in which to work largely uninterrupted, happily took over a sizable corner of their accommodations with his lab. He could be found, for hours on end over the three weeks, adjusting bottles above flames, mixing oddly colored and foul scented liquids in flasks and bottles, and generally fouling his corner of the house. </p>
<p>When not occupied with his alchemical creations, he discussed a few theories that he had been mulling over in his limited free time with Conner, <b>"So as you're aware, my psionic ability is... suppressed is perhaps the best word I have found. I can tap into this latent power through the alchemical formulae that so dazzled you earlier. My theory is that I have some bizarre mental block, likely as a result of my childhood or heritage, which doesn't allow me direct access to this focused power in the same way that you can access your own powers."</b> Roderick continues to ramble, not paying any particular heed to Connor. <b>"The formulae are able to tap this power, and with a disciplined study I have been able to create a multitude of effects as these formulae tap and then manifest the power for me. Of late, it seems as though there should be a way for this power to be infused into the very alchemical liquid itself. This would require a focused study on my part, but the theory seems sound. This would, in theory, allow anyone to consume these potions and manifest the particular powers that I have infused in the potion. I think the practical applications are obvious, so for the theory..."</b></p>
<p>Shuffling through a journal, he pulls out a soot stained sheaf of notes, which he thrusts in a heap in front of Connor. Rifling through the pile, he finally spots the paper he wants and he taps a finger on the scrawl of arcane figures, <b>"These were notes that I had taken before my... ah.. abrupt departure from my home. There was some means of doing this, before the Fall. I have begun to work on this in my free time, but where I struggle is with the actual infusion of my power into the liquids. Breaking down whatever mental block I have in place will be necessary, I think, before I can infuse the potions properly. I would, if you would be interested, appreciate your assistance. This is a largely untapped area of alchemical and psionic study and it seemed to have piqued your interest before."</b> Roderick trails off and waits for a reply.</p>
<p><span class=messageboard-ooc>Laying groundwork for taking the Infusion discovery next level. Crafting 2x antitoxin, 2x antiplague and 2x tanglefoot bags. Each have a DC of 25 and my take 10 bonus is 28 for craft(alchemy). I can thus craft 2100 sp (28 • 25 • 3) of stuff in the three weeks. That should fit all of the above and should cost me 67 gp in supplies (leaving me with 83 gp in supplies).</span></p>

<p>Ahdak nods his acknowledgement of the sheriff's suggestion, though he lingers a moment, fascinated and repulsed by the squabbling little murderers, though his carefully neutral expression doesn't reveal this. On his shoulder, Noctua puffs her feathers into a ball, hooting angrily, perhaps reflecting her master's mood. <i>These beings are so like the fire that fascinates them. Dancing and darting and dangerous, all too ready to burn and consume what is around them until they too are gone. But no fire burns with the malice in their blackened souls.</i> Heaving a sigh of disgust as the goblins are led away, he nods to the sheriff and adds, <b>"I will assist you, should you have me. It is an affront that the bones of your ancestors would be disturbed. After these matters are seen to, I can perhaps help learn more from the vile beasts you have captured. I speak some words in their tongue."</b></p>

<p>I'm inclined towards the triangular spot as long as the river is fairly wide. If it's only 15-20 feet across, I'd prefer to move a bit further into the tree cover as they could set up shots from across the river on the hill. It does protect our flanks fairly well though, but if we decided to run we're a little boxed in.</p>
<p>I think I'm inclined towards the ruins, personally, with no fire and a distraction fire of some sort on the hill overlooking the creek. More hard cover close at hand. The only thing I don't like is the hill overlooking it, but I'm not sure what we can do about that. I've marked where I think we should camp with a cross.</p>
<p>That leaves the count fairly balanced between the two, I think.</p>

<p>Heaving a sigh of relief, Ahdak slowly lowers his weapon, looking about him with an inscrutable expression. <i>Ash and fire seem to have followed me from the plateau and have brought grief to this town in a time of happiness. Is this what the spirits have set for me? To bring a trail of fire in my wake? Surely there is more to the task before me then this wasteful death.</i> He nods, distractedly, to the noble, barely acknowledging what was being said. He trails along with his companions, taciturn and withdrawn, barely acknowledging the words of thanks from the townsfolk as he continued to mull over his brooding thoughts.</p>
<p>As they reach the center of town, Ahdak is pulled from his melancholic reflection by a familiar accent. Looking up, his gaze settles on the sheriff who had been so enraged by his presence earlier. Face expressionless, he listens to the Shoanti sheriff silently. <i>I do not understand this man. He is of my people, but he acts as if he is not. Perhaps he has forsaken our ways? Is that to be my fate as well? To drag fire and ash in my wake, to wander without a hearth to call my own? I must seek the spirit's wisdom soon, as there is too much to consider at this time.</i> A gentle nibble on his ear draws his attention. Nodding in acknowledgement of Noctua's wisdom, he clears his throat and speaks, <b>"If there are injured, I may be able to assist your people's healers. I am a shaman of the Lyrune-Quah, and some of the healing arts are taught to us. I am not a healer of great power or renown, but I can help if you will accept it."</b></p>

<p>Edit: As for supplies for Roderick, I wouldn't mind another pistol of the sort I have at some point. I seem to recall those being fairly expensive though... Also maybe some alchemical gear so I can make some alchemist's acid/tanglefoot/antitoxin/antiplague/etc.</p>

<p>Raphael arrives for the party wearing a brilliant emerald green jacket embroidered with silver thread. With his white tunic underneath and a pair of fine black breeches, he cut a resplendent figure. He quips to Estelle after having joined her, <b>"I hope this is satisfactory? It is perhaps a little over the top, but I believe you'll certainly have reason to like it by the time the auction is through."</b></p>
<p><span class=messageboard-ooc>18th of Abadius - 1:05 PM</span></p>
<p>Raphael notes as each of his friends and acquaintances as they enter. He suppresses a snort of amusement at Valentina's antics with moderate success by playing it off as a sneeze. Setting away his handkerchief, he watches Verill Blightguard with interest, recalling his conversation with Valentina some time ago. <i>I would very much like to meet him, particularly after that last case, but it should be a natural meeting. No need to set him on edge.</i> He is caught with his attention wandering, and feigns an embarrassed shrug as he brings his mind back to the conversation at hand. <b>"I admit that I may have bitten off more than I can chew in the last few weeks. It seems that I've spent more time in the last three weeks poring over case work then the rest of the previous year combined. Or perhaps it's just that I'm getting older. My birthday is in a few short weeks, after all <span class=messageboard-ooc>(last day of Abadius)</span>."</b> He shrugs, <b>"And I just try to do what I can. I've a fancy for a challenge and I don't mind taking those cases that others find to be too much to bite off. If it was easy, then it wouldn't be worth doing, I think."</b></p>
<p>Raphael keeps his balance with a slight effort as the auction's host very suddenly leans his weight against him. He raises an eyebrow at Estelle as Augustine makes his explanation, smiling. He replies to the man's enthusiasm without delay, <b>"I did in fact bring a few trinkets that I think will do quite nicely. If you would stand just there-"</b> He gestures a few paces away, <b>"-I'll show you."</b></p>
<p>Assuming Augustine complies, Raphael studies the man for a moment, murmuring softly to himself. After a moment's intense study, he falls silent. The silence stretches only an instant before the jacket that Raphael wears begins to tug and morph and twist, until it settles into a robe that very closely resembles the robe that Augustine was wearing. <b>"Perhaps another demonstration is in order? I could change my clothing into something very closely resembling your dress, Estelle, but I don't think I'd do it even close to the justice that you do. So perhaps, monsieur... ? I'm afraid I didn't catch your name, my apologies. I'm Raphael Montefiore, a good friend of Estelle's.

<p>Roderick declines the seat and remains standing, allowing Connor first opportunity to speak. <i>The simple truth, which doesn't leave a great deal of wiggle room with the truth, but we crippled them fairly badly so that may serve well enough.</i> He nods his agreement with Connor, generally, though he interjects, <b>"To clarify, that field is hideously powerful and may be an existential threat to the island, if it was ever to destabilize. It's almost certainly an artifact from before the Arising. Those ruins must be taken by force of arms, not psionics or magical trickery. And even then care has to be taken with any explosives."</b> </p>
<p>He continues to listen, adding to Connor's story about the battle on the beach, <b>"Our efforts directly led to the destruction of the skyship, though against a numerically superior foe we regrettably could not take it to be brought back. Given the lack of further explosions, it's safe to say they had no magic items of interest in their hold. This should cripple their ability to smuggle any goods around, as they're now stuck footslogging through weeks of jungle not only to move their goods but also to gather supplies."</b></p>

<p>Oh yea, there's no good "easy win" here but it does get interesting as it reveals how characters respond to a nuanced moral situation. Specifically this was partially a good vs lawful thing for Wilhelm, where he recognizes some of the anti-human anger the kobolds are espousing (based on translation/sense motive) and has to weigh his desire to adhere to law where it is just. So he's balancing the need to protect his subjects (disarray in his barony now is bad) with desire to avoid bloodshed and so on. I think I'm fairly happy with the balance from an RP point of view (as a paladin specifically).</p>

<p>Wilhelm's jaw sets as Pruett translates the kobold's demands and he eyes the black kobold warily. <b>"Thank you, Pruett. I am glad to hear they no longer wish my head on a spear, for now. I share your discomfort and doubt that any trial would be fair. I'm also reluctant to shed blood if it can be avoided, but we are quickly running out of options. Hopefully they will see reason. I don't recall it as a concession, but we had discussed their kingdom having a degree of autonomy and self-rule. Perhaps there was a misunderstanding."</b></p>
<p>Wilhelm thinks for a long tense moment, then asks Pruett, <b>"Can you ask them how we could prove we haven't kidnapped Shimmerscales from within their lands? If we held her, she would be in one of our castles. Ask what would suffice as proof and perhaps we can provide that instead. Ikit's idea also has merit. Perhaps they will agree to a hostage exchange of sorts so that a group of kobolds can tour our city and see that we do not hold Shimmer. I would suggest trying the first idea before mentioning the second."</b></p>

<p><b>Questions</b>
<br />
<ul><li>Opinion on the late king: <b>"Hrmph, one monarch is much like any other. They care for their power and influence and not a wit for the common good."</b>
<br />
<li>The queen: <b>"Much like any other monarch, as I already said. Her actions since the king's death have been incendiary, but perhaps she's a fool as well?"</b>
<br />
<li>The Sabre company: <b>"High and mighty and avoiding all the unpleasantry of the day to day affairs of Korvosa. Noble and rich merchant's sons and daughters, all."</b>
<br />
<li>The City watch : <b>"A blend of honest men and women, like my friend Grau Soldado, and the corrupt bullies who feed off of the power of their role. Most are the former, but the latter are common enough that you can never expect which to get."</b>
<br />
<li>Kroft, the City Guard Chief: <b>"If nothing else, she tries to do the best by this city and for that she has my respect. I don't always care for her methods, but she's an honest woman and I do not begrudge her my help."</b>
<br />
<li>Varisians: <b>"My people, though I don't know them. Orphaned when my Scarzni parents botched a job and were killed for their trouble. I know the language but not its people. Perhaps I will have time when I finish my studies... perhaps."</b>
<br />
<li>Chelaxians: <b>"Entirely too obsessed with the law. Add that their nation is ruled by a tyrannical diabolist and I have difficulty trusting any of them. Their fondness for hellknights does them no favor either."</b>
<br />
<li>Blackjack: <b>"A hero, perhaps, though one with too much taste for flamboyance per my own way of thinking. He did a good thing, but I also don't see him now that things are less glorious and are more dangerous. Time will tell what kind of man, or woman, this Blackjack is."</b>
<br />
<li>The plague: <b>"Tch, this disease is raging through the city and the poor will pay the worst price. Too few doctors and too little will to do anything about it, nevermind that all will suffer if the city burns down around us in fear, terror, and sickness. Shortsighted nobles and monarchs never seem to plan for this kind of calamity. Pfah."</b></ul></p>

<p>While we're in this transitioning phase, I'd also like to propose the following changes to Iozif:</p>
<p>Remove Trap Breaker/Vivisectionist archetypes and add Chirurgeon archetype
<br />
Change Reckless trait for Precise Treatment (Int instead of Wis for heal and +1 trait bonus)
<br />
Change Cosmopolitan feat for Point Blank Shot
<br />
Shuffle a few skills around to make more sense for the character (less trap breaking/stealth/rogue stuff and +more Varisian doctor stuff)</p>
<p>The Trap Breaker/Vivisectionist doesn't really make more sense the more I look at it for a supposed doctor. It makes more sense for some sort of alchemical second story man, which Iozif is not. I keep the healing focused flavor and also become a bit more flexible (bombs instead of sneak attack). Iozif having Precise Treatment instead of Reckless as a trait also much more accurately reflects his character. Cosmopolitan could stay, but I was using it to pick up 'roguelike' skills, which didn't make a lot of sense. </p>
<p>Thoughts from everyone else? Corsario?</p>

<p>Our GM had a change of life circumstances that left him unable to spend time GMing our CotCT game. We're a short ways into the second book and are interested in continuing the game if we can. There are four of us at the moment, but we may wish to also recruit a 5th player to fill in for a missing divine. We're roughly halfway through level four. Our characters are:</p>
<p><b>Iozif Vasile:</b> a Varisian doctor and alchemist who strafes under the city's rigid hierarchy
<br />
<b>Gyllan Dow:</b> a man who can find anything in the city
<br />
<b>Corso Gaczi:</b> noble dandy and somewhat of a rake. He has a heart of gold, though sometimes he needs to remember to polish it.
<br />
<b>Rommin Hawkridge:</b> a new member of the team, this urban barbarian simmers with anger at the state of the city and the queen's lunacy</p>

<p>Ok, I got a bit mixed up about where we had explored. I've marked on the map everything we've learned to the best of my ability. If there's something wrong, can you list the correct hex that it should be labelled on? </p>
<p>As for path, if we haven't hit F17 yet, I think we should do that, then swing east to visit the kobolds and then swing further east and then southwest. I've marked the map with what I propose. If anyone has thoughts, I'm happy to hear them. :)</p>
<p>I do eventually want to go visit the mad hermit again and recover the sword Wilhelm used when helping to slay the Stag Lord. :) Just not this very moment.</p>

<p>Roderick shrugs off Connor's surprise as he steps back to make room near the wounded man, <b>"My psionic elixirs are more than capable of keeping me alive should need be, cousin.

I'll cede to your medical judgement though, as I've next to no training in the field. Relocating, away from the campsite, might not be a bad idea. We don't know what magical items they escaped with.

<p>Hrm, all of this is making wild arcana look less and less useful to me as a Magus. I had interpreted it as: spend a swift action/mythic power and then you can cast a spell (with it's normal action cost, generally standard) with whatever metamagic you want up to your max spell level without spending any slots. That would imply I can use it during spell combat. The FAQ version is considerably less useful if it doesn't work with spell combat. In favor, it's still a standard action cast time so that fits into Spell Combat's requirement. Per the FAQ text (bold emphasis is mine):</p>
<div class="messageboard-quotee">FAQ wrote:</div><blockquote>As a standard action, you can expend one use of mythic power to cast any one arcane spell without expending a prepared spell or spell slot.</blockquote><div class="messageboard-quotee">Spell Combat wrote:</div><blockquote>At 1st level, a magus learns to cast spells and wield his weapons at the same time. This functions much like two-weapon fighting, but the off-hand weapon is a spell that is being cast. To use this ability, the magus must have one hand free (even if the spell being cast does not have somatic components), while wielding a light or one-handed melee weapon in the other hand. As a full-round action, he can make all of his attacks with his melee weapon at a –2 penalty and can also cast any spell from the magus spell list with a casting time of <b>1 standard action</b> (any attack roll made as part of this spell also takes this penalty). </blockquote><p>On the other hand, it's not precisely the same thing as just casting the spell outright. GM Archlich, can you comment on that? I'm fine either way, but it will impact what arcana I choose.
<p>Edit: Also, I'm still fiddling with things. I dropped a feat (Greater Spell Penetration) to pick up another (Empowered Spell) among other possible tweaks.</p>

So at Tier 4, you should have 2 mythic feats. You can also trade out a path ability (maybe many?) for mythic feats. You need to have the non-mythic feat to take the mythic feat.

<p>I'm planning to go down the Archmage route with my character, for whatever that's worth. Backup path is tricky, but probably trickster purely for path dabbling into Archmage for Coupled Arcana. I would like to be caster focused, so Archmage makes the most sense.</p>

<p>A holy warrior with deep ties to the land. Generally avoids cities and seeks to serve the general populace as a healer and protector. The warrior is probably a worshipper of Erastil.

<p>So this is Rikash and the alias I'll be working from for my concept. I've got most of the build together, but it's subject to change as I think about his background. He will be a Kensai/Bladebound Magus, Swashbuckler (no archetypes, which is a change from my old plans), and School Savant Arcanist (Admixturist barring Necromancy and Enchantment, probably).</p>
<p>As far as spell selection goes, I get quite a few from just leveling. IF I want to buy more, should I just be buying scrolls and then paying scribing costs (unless I have a blessed book), or is it assumed I can find someone to pick up spells from at a discount (1/2•cost of scribing the spell is generally the cost suggested, but may seem too cheap)?</p>
<p>Edit: I almost forgot, I found <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B02MJ7Nls52Va0xuM0dUbzh2U0k/view?usp=sharing" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">this picture</a> which I rather like as representative of my character.</p>

<p>I'm definitely interested and am working on putting together an alias with all the trimmings. My character (whose name/background/etc are still very WIP) is a human noble who is a brilliant arcanist, ferocious swordsman and hero of the people. He'll be a Kensai/Bladebound Magus, School Savant (Admixture) Arcanist, and Swashbuckler following the Archmage path. Further details to follow, but I know for certain I'll be taking Noble Scion of Lore as my first level feat.</p>
<p>Edit: Also, out of curiosity, does anyone know if there's a way to do Trisalt on Herolab? There's the 3rd party pack that does Gestalt, but I don't think I've seen anything for Trisalt.</p>

There was a cost to that, however, and our leader, Felix Sebastian Orlovsky, fell under the so-called Stag Lord's bow. Fhârn and I repaid him in blood, but not until it was too late. We... saved him... after a fashion. You might have met the golden kobold, Felicia Shimmerscales. My cousin was reborn in a new form as a result of certain magics used to raise him.

<p>Was flipping through Path of War and noticed <a href="http://www.d20pfsrd.com/path-of-war/feats#TOC-Deadly-Agility-Combat-" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Deadly Agility</a>. Given that how Slashing Grace changed, it may make sense for me to replace the former with the Path of War feat. Just a thought. :)</p>
<p>As far as items go, Sharpened Edge is best for anyone using 18-20 range weapons (preferably 2H). That'd be Rory or Elara, I think. I can use it too, but I don't get the cool 1.5•stat mod that a 2h gets that gets multiplied. Dimension Swap for Alys sounds right. Claws of the Beast for Elara may be good (non-reach weapons on demand). Mindhunter is a non-combat thing that might come in handy. With all his bonuses to Knowledge, Roderick is probably best to get Call to Mind (free inspiration on Knowledge).</p>
<p>Do we know what the dorjes Roderick picked up do?</p>

<p>Roderick scowls at the burning wreckage of the ship in between swigs from his canteen. Soot blackened and feeling scorched, he sidles up alongside Alys as she calls for Connor and studies the halfling who he'd helped to rescue from the flames. He replies offhandedly to Adraniel, <b>"I imagine the bruised halfling is Flick, though I've not the slightest idea why he's called that. I take it you know him from somewhere?"</b></p>

<p>Wilhelm smiles as the gnome accepts his offer, <b>"Good, I'm glad we could find something mutually agreeable."</b> He listens with interest as the man describes what he has seen in his travels. The mention of the giant elicits a slow whistle from the paladin and he nods thoughtfully, <b>"Certainly better to be prepared with this information. A giant is something I've not seen, and I'm not so sure that I'm eager to see one either. Better to know it's there then to be surprised by it, though."</b> </p>

<p>To Narthropple, <b>"So what will be your path of travel from here? We'll be away from the capital for a time, but we'd be happy to return your hospitality if you happen to return after we are back ourselves."</b></p>

<p>So to clear my temporary negative level will cost a minimum of 100gp (diamond dust cost for restoration to remove non-permanent negative level) • (4th level spell • 7th level cleric • 10) = 380 gp assuming there isn't a markup. If we can do that quickly, that may not be a bad idea. As for purchases, I'd like an alchemical silver heavy mace (102 gp) and a dose of antiplague (50 gp). I have 392.02 gp (per DM DocEvil's notes which I'm inclined to trust more than mine). I'd definitely appreciate the help paying for the spell, Gyllan. Thanks for that. :) Assuming we drain my funds dry, I'd have some 139.98 gp leftover to pay for the spellcasting. I would need to stop back by my apartment to get my cash, however.</p>

<p>Entering the inn, Raphael shivers as he pulls his heavy coat off, hanging it on a nearby hook. Unwinding a scarf and plucking his gloves off finger by finger, he finally frees himself of winter's necessities and enters the Inn proper. </p>
<p><span class=messageboard-ooc>Not sure if Estelle (Stingborn) is joining me, but if so then I reserve the right to make introductions, etc. :P</span></p>
<p>Raphael returns greetings warmly, making a point to congratulate Marcus, <b>"It's a wonderful thing to see your business booming, Marcus. You've a true knack for it, so I wish you the best. It's also welcome and heartening news to hear of life lived well, even in light of recent events."</b> He sips at the wine from Marcus' new vineyard, generally preferring wine to mead. He listens as both Seth and Marcus share their experiences with interest before he recounts what little he's learned, <b>"I'm afraid I've had little time to investigate on my own. I've learned that the so called Blond Butcherers are proving reticent and have little to offer by way of information on motive. It's not surprising that they would resist attempts to catch them in a lie, but their reluctance to say anything at all points to some deeper motivation, though I couldn't tell you what that might be."</b></p>
<p>Later, when the party has wound down and when the opportunity presents itself, he motions the others into one of the side rooms, saying, <b>"I didn't wish it to be public knowledge, as yet, but the a number of the murderers are seeking my services as a lawyer. They asked for me by name, and the docket was in my hands the day after that fatal night. It struck me that they must necessarily have singled me out before the night's bloody events played out, which demands we consider why. Add to that the strangely informed man in the mirror and there seems to be deeper work at play."</b></p>

Blinking in surprise as he finds a lone man chained in the cabin, he calls out mentally to Hero as he starts to undo the man's bindings, "Hero, tell Conner to get his constructs or our squalling oaf of a captain down here. There's a surface worlder who's not likely to make it out on his own."
Unsure if his attempt to alert the rest of the party was effective, he focuses on unbinding the man's shackles.

<p>Raphael wakes from his slumber at a habitually early hour, reflexively clutching the dagger he kept sheathed under his pillow. The night hadn't been an easy one, with a jumbled series of dreams leaving him tossing and turning. Sitting up and relinquishing his hold on his dagger, he pauses a moment to sort out the chaos that had robbed him of a good night of sleep, but finds that he recall little of what he dreamt other than it had left him uneasy and angry. </p>
<p>Sighing, he slips from bed, donning a robe and making his way to his office. His assistant, Alexis Montferrat, had already set out a copy of the Durendale Daily, a croissant au chocolat, and a cup of Tizonan coffee that his MTC subsidiary had imported. Sipping the hot beverage, Raphael reads through the notes grimly, pondering the political implications of the past night's slaughter. <i>For so many Galatians to die, particularly the royals and ambassadors, will do no good. I am no great friend of Greater Galatine, but this slaughter is unconscionable. It is also a demonstrable failure on our own part that we could not stop it. We have a moral imperative to bring the assassins to justice.</i> His sour mood is only slightly improved when he finds the segment calling out his successful trial. </p>
<p>After finishing his morning meal, he asks Alexis, <b>"Would you kindly you send a runner to see if Guardsman Estelle is free to meet here this afternoon? I will be going over some casework and her expertise would be appreciated. If she is unable to make it, kindly have the runner return with such news."</b> With a nod to his valet, Raphael dresses and retakes his seat in his office. He pulls a few packets of case notes that he had recovered from his archives and began a review of them, though his mind wandered at will.</p>

I got behind and it was just too much. I should be able to catch up tomorrow or the day after though, so I"ll get something up soon. :) Enjoy the long weekend.</p>

She is married to a noble in the Garess clan (probably not Vors as she's been married since the expedition started at least :P).

She dabbles in magic, fencing (more than dabbles in this case) and alchemy while maintaining the skills expected of a noble of the Orlovsky clan. Feeling stifled by her quiet life, she has convinced her husband (name TBD with input from MDT) to move down to the Stolen lands to her little brother's fledgling kingdom.</p>

<p>He nods his greeting to the two woman as Karl introduces him, he bows formally, face carefully blank, as he says, <b>"Be received, friends of Karl Sarvo. I am Ahdak, Shoanti of the Lyrune-Quah. May the spirits smile on us."</b> He studies each in turn, uncertain what to make of the aasimar's feathers or the concealing robes of her companion. <i>These are a mismatched pair, it would seem. The one hiding in shadow and the other proudly defiant in the light despite her oddity. This place knows many people, if nothing else. I wonder how they came to meet one another?</i> Looking aside to his dwarven companion, a small quirk tugs at the corner of the Shoanti's mouth. <i>Perhaps the meeting of two wildly different people's is not so unusual after all.</i></p>
<p><span class=messageboard-ooc>Not sure that Ahdak's seen an aasimar before Alesta. Definitely not in his tribe, but maybe in Kaer Maga or elsewhere on his journies.</span></p>
At the fight.
Ahdak follows the mercenary's gesture, then nods, "No, it appears that the unusual fighting style of the dwarf did not serve him as well as could be hoped. Perhaps there is a lesson there, but then again, perhaps not. Let us continue this discussion over a meal. I find my appetite for this brawling sours."
At the table.
Ahdak nods a solemn greeting to his dwarven acquaintance, while Noctua eyes the flung scraps of salmon hungrily. "Be welcomed, Baldek. It is good to see you...

<p>Ahdak listens to the mercenary speak with his characteristically neutral expression. A hint of a prideful smile seems to ghost the corner of Ahdak's mouth, but anyone looking to confirm what they'd seen is left wanting. <i>A man without vices... perhaps this is me. We will see if this man's soft lowland land will leave me standing tall.</i> His eyes follow Karl's gestures and he nods in reply, <b>"Yes, I gather what you might mean. If a seed is left to take root and soften the soul, so to speak, then a means by which a man can be broken is laid. The hardest rock will break beneath the choking tangle of a tree's roots. But this tree must start with a seed, so it is best to guard against such a seed."</b> </p>
<p>Satisfied that his path, of an observer but not a partaker, in the softer ways of his hosts was the wise, the Shoanti shaman returns his attention to the bounty hunter. He meets the Cheliaxian's eyes as his returns the level gaze, <b>"Any man who considers himself untouchable when he lives in the open gaze of his enemies must be a fool. So are these men you hunt truly fools, or do they only feign such to lure in the unwary hunter?"</b></p>
<p>A meaty thump from the ring draws the half-orcs gaze and he watches as the fight turns against the fighter with the unusual stance.</p>

<p>Ahdak studies the man, Vasily, gauging him with impassive eyes and a calm demeanor. <i>If it is such a good thing to risk this coin, then why do you press it so? Surely you do not wish to be parted from your coin either? Perhaps there is no catch and it is simply a game to make this man popular? I am doubful of this, however.</i> He shakes his head, <b>"I would see how these races are conducted first. I am new to your town and I do not yet understand the nature of this... spectacle. Perhaps after one race I will place a larger wager."</b></p>
<p>To Baldak, the shaman shrugs, <b>"The orange one seems to possess the traits that my people admire in the cinder lizards where the others do not. They are odd little things, but they are more so painted in these ridiculous colors. Perhaps this is another custom that I do not know?"</b></p>

<p>Zoresk frowns down at the report, uncertainty welling up as he reads more entries. He runs a hand through his stubble, <b>"Well this doesn't paint our missing person in the best light. I suppose these could be doctored, but they're private files. Why bother then? Have we heard of these Baker people? Or the others: Yun, Soreden or Rak? That missing file... I suspect it has information that we want."</b></p>
<p>Zoresk takes a moment to compare the journals before and after the missing journal (from two years ago) looking for discrepancies. He'll also take a look through entries around that time concerning either Jerend or any other recognizable names.</p>
<p><span class=messageboard-ooc>Edit: Just to clarify, the only entries for Jerend are in the month's leading up to his disappearance?</span></p>

<p>Seeing his chance, Zoresk drops back and whispers in Finger's ear as they walk, <b>"The good sheriff is lying through his teeth at every turn. I'm positive. He knows something about our friend's disappearance and these notes hold a key. If you could subtly let the others know, that might help."</b></p>
<p>As they arrive at the office, Zoresk asks, <b>"I'm not interested in a drink, nor do I care about dirt, but anything unusual recently might be of interest. Who knows what might have a darker explanation that was written off as a minor oddity. Also anything you have relating to Jerend's observations would be helpful, wouldn't you say, Kumyo, Irina?"</b></p>

<p>Zoresk simply arcs an eyebrow, then smiles disarmingly at the man and says, <b>"Well, that's a <i>criminal</i> shame now isn't it. It's almost too much for me to believe that he didn't keep notes, but I suppose being a sheriff is a busy job. We're a bit worried about a few of the beasts Jerend mentioned, you know, and we were hoping to prevent anyone else being hurt like Jerend. You saw him at the end, right? Mind broken and scared of everything. It certainly would seem a shame if that happened to anyone else, don't you agree? Anyhow, can you direct us to the old sheriff's next of kin? You never did mention his name, by the way. One last thing, you'd mentioned that Jerend like to warn people about beasts and such. Did he ever warn you about the hydras and such we mentioned. When was the last you saw him... before he reappeared raving of course."</b></p>

<p>Also, can you clarify in your template how you'd like us to mark down Defense/DR from the Armor as DR rules that will be in use?</p>

It's one that I wish I'd have thought of. :P Xanos' philosophy is the next logical step from where Theo is. He accepts Asmodeus' world view as the true state of affairs (e.g. the weak are ruled by the strong at pain of death or worse). The next step is to recognize that Asmodeus and the other gods have set things up in this manner for their own benefit at his (and others though he doesn't care as much) cost. Might make for some interesting RP if we end up playing together. Also some interesting interactions as Theo turns into the undead form that Xanos hungers to be. :)

<p>I'm going to rebuild this fellow as a Brawler/Bard/commoner who was convicted of being a slave taker. Before his life of crime, Theodoric was a barkeep raised in poverty who had an eye for stories. He kept less then savory contacts and when his burgeoning inn fell under the scrutiny of the city guard, he lost his clientele and was forced into a life of crime himself. Bitter and resentful of the hand dealt to him, he found he had a knack for the life of a criminal. He lived a decent life, repaying many of his business debts, until he was captured in a sting by the guard. Now stuck in Brandescar prison, Theo plots his escape while quietly worrying about a bite he suffered shortly before he was captured.</p>

<p>A pallid man sitting in the corner eyes you warily for a moment, then smiles and beckons you over. Tousled black hair frame a handsome face, now grimy from the decay found at the heart of Brandescar prison. His tattered finery and handsome face unworn by the outdoor's marks him a noble. Grinning genially, the man nods his head politely and asks, <b>"Pray tell what horrid misfortune has brought you here, friend?"</b> His grin widens and he waits for an answer patiently. </p>
<p><b>"Ah, of course. For myself, I've run into a spot of trouble with my debtors and I seem to be here by mistake. I can't say I'd be sad to never see the inside of this hellhole again."</b> The man extends a hand to shake. As you do so, you notice that his skin is oddly cold and clammy, even for the depths of Brandescar. <b>"I am Lord Theodoric Redner, Paladin of Mitra."</b></p>
<p>A voice calls from the darkness, <b>"Don't listen to that puling whoreson's lies, fish. Tha' bastard was plotting agin' the good King. And I'm willing to say tha' there's no Paladin or I'm a bloody pox on yonder 'lordling's' backside."</b> A raucous peal of laughter breaks the quit of the dungeon as the speaker steps into view.</p>
<p>Theodoric's smile never waivers as he stands, chuckling, <b>"I'm afraid you've caught me in my little ruse, friend. I hope you don't take my little game to heart."</b> He steps closer, hand extended as if to shake. In a sudden blur of motion, Theodoric backhands the speaker violently. A flash of blueish light outlines the man against the dark dungeon and you get the odd impression that the handsome lordling has grown fangs and claws. Blinking as the light fades, you hear a heavy thud and screaming that cuts off an instant later. </p>
<p>Roderick strolls back into the feeble candlelight that makes it through the door, nonchalantly wiping his bloodied hand on his threadbare garments. He takes a seat near you, smiling broadly and saying, <b>"Now, where were we?"</b> His smile, formerly warm and welcoming, has a dark edge to it that you hadn't noticed before.</p>
<p>———————————————————————————————</p>
<p>Rikash chiming in with my Knight of the Sepulcher/Sorcerer. Roderick is built to focus on debuffing the enemy with his spells before wading in and smashing his enemies to pieces. He's resilient and starting at level five can heal himself like a Paladin could with his touch of corruption. He'll have fantastic saves and strong attacks (when Smiting, Arcane Striking and buffed by his spells). With a focus on Charisma, his spells will also provide strong arcane support.</p>

<p>Submitting Theodoric Redner, Infiltrator inquisitor of Asmodeous, who I think will fit in nicely. Right now I only have a detailed crunch but I have a fleshed out back story and personality in mind that just needs to be put to 'paper'. </p>
<p>The synopsis is that he's the son of a pair of well-to-do merchants who, using the education and opportunities provided by his parents, joined the cult of Asmodeus. His family regularly worked to provide goods to the Church of Mitra and Theo used this position to further both his and the cult's goals. </p>
<p>Sadly, his forgeries were discovered and he was arrested before making good on his escape. So far, his broader involvement in the cult are not discovered (he's simply a greedy merchant), but it is only a matter of time before he's charged with heresy and sedition. Finding the prattling of the church and tolerance of Talingarde for its weak and pitiful grating, Theo is eager to escape and make good in his vengeance.</p>
<p>I presumed a little bit about the cult, but this can easily be altered to be a splinter cell or a formed group of some sort. Also, are there any non-standard ethnicities within Talingarde? How about commonly spoken languages other then Common?</p>

<p>Stepping with ease through the bustling crowd, Qadir weaved his way towards the recruitment tables, his well worn shield carried with a sense of comfortable familiarity.

<p><b>"My friend, you are far too slow on your feet. If you cannot walk with ease through this crowd, how can you hope to dodge the killing thrust of your enemy's spear? It would be a great shame for you to have come so far only to fall on the first blade to present itself."</b> Eyes tightening in silent amusement, Qadir turns back to the tables and enters the closest of the lines. <b>"This market is acceptably beautiful -unlike much of this barbaric land- and though it doesn't compare to the finest of the gardens in Ghazwara."</b> </p>
<p>With this backhanded compliment, Qadir makes his final few steps to join the line, where he waits with patiently for his opportunity to join the fight. </p>

Stepping with ease through the bustling crowd, Qadir weaved his way towards the recruitment tables, his well worn shield carried with a sense of comfortable familiarity.

<p>A few more thoughts on Qadir:</p>
<p><b>Personality:</b> Qadir values honorable conduct (keeping your word, respecting tradition and doing one's duty) and prefers a tactical approach to combat (each cog in the machine must do its part). He doesn't possess significant book learning, instead relying on his intuition to judge the situation. He has a sense of humor (trending towards dry wit), but only when it doesn't concern matters he considers important. He isn't generally for sticking his neck out needlessly, but isn't heartless or ruthless. Those he considers foolish generally earn his scorn, but he's a stout friend if you earn his respect. </p>
<p><b>Appearance:</b> Long of limb and well built, Qadir cuts an imposing figure standing just over six feet tall. There are few who meet his stern, dark eyes without the slightest feeling of trepidation. In keeping with his tribe's tradition (pending review with Zim'wa), Qadir is clean shaven. He also prefers to shave his head, finding the effect cooling. His long hours in the sun have left him tanned and somewhat travel-worn. </p>
<p>@Zim'Wa: I took the liberty of assuming that you're ok with us being in the same tribe. As long as you're ok with the few details I've given already, then I think it would be interesting for us to be linked as tribesman. I'm also going to say that either the nation/city/land we're from is know as Ghazwara (Badly mangled Arabic having to do with expeditions/conquering which could be an interesting part of its history). Any other thoughts on our interactions? </p>
<p>For other bonds, depending how our first interactions go, I've had the following thoughts. Let me know what you think:</p>
<p><i>Hakonyr:</i> Hakonyr has passion, but is too eager by half to enter the fray. I would like to see him curtail his fervor before he gets us killed.</p>
<p><i>Father Jarad:</i> I respect Father Jarad's deliberate matter and attentiveness to his duties. He seems to be a fine man who I should like to know better.</p>
<p><i>Galadin:</i> This man is a mystery to me. He is deliberate at times, but then there are others when he seems to fly into a mysterious rage. I do not understand and am worried this will become a liability. (This would need to develop depending non how you do your spirit thing. We could spin off some variation of it though. :) )</p>
<p><i>Cappy:</i> I do not care for this shifty little man. His light fingers and keen interest in gold leave me little reason to trust him. (Nothing personal, just how I imagine things developing. No real basis for it yet though.)</p>

<p>Jokum chiming in. Here is Qadir the Dancer, a member of the <blank> tribe of the distant empire of <blank>. He learned to fight at his father's feet and he carried on the only sensible fighting style to be found. The "glorious" hacking and slashing duels between fighters in this land are stupid, and it is far better to be nimble and to dance around your foe while distracting him with many threats.</p>
<p>I'll flesh out more stuff (and my profile) later. In brief, I imagine Qadir's tribe to live nomadically within the more settled empire of <blank>. The travel the arid wasteland between the shelter of oasis, stream and canyon (so rocky, dry and mean). It is not uncommon for groups of <blank> tribe to serve as caravan guards, and thus Qadir has done. He and his family (to be named) have served to guard a caravan from distant <blank> to Westervale to ply their wares. The news of the mysterious and magnificent tower have spread far, and Qadir has secretly been eager to test his power.</p>
<p><b>Potential bonds with the party</b> </p>
<p><ul><li>If there's someone who's not a native, we could have met on the road and grown to friendship/dislike/rivalry/whatever.<li>Maybe someone is from the same empire (not necessarily nomadic) and we have some sort of relationship from then?<li>Maybe Qadir insulted someone (intentionally or not) and now the two have a dislike for one another?</ul></p>

<p>@James: Chiming in to add in my vote that Pavel was a really well played character. </p>
<p>@Javell: I actually thought Theoden was in a pretty good place. The slightly pompous paladin with a love of acting and theatrics. Also a well played character. Honestly I felt like I had a hard time getting anywhere with Daeron other than generic "know it all wizard". I wanted to up play the engineering angle, but I don't think I really did that at all. Oh well.</p>
<p>@TCB: As far things go with the Minkai game, that sounds like it could be a lot of fun. I'd be interested in doing something like that. I don't have a ton of attachment to Daeron as a character (never really found my groove with him).</p>
<p>Mechanically, one thing that springs to mind is the E6 or E8 mod to Pathfinder. Basically you stop levelling once you hit 6th or 8th but you keep gaining feats and stuff. I don't remember all the specifics of the rules, but it does seem interesting. That might be worth a look (if it wasn't what you were referring to above).</p>

Listening to the expedition's leader, Daeron responds, "Though I doubt it needs saying, we should take Tunuaq's words with a grain of salt. He's proven himself an able liar. Do you have any further information about this other Amatatsu? Perhaps my research can reveal something over the next few hours."

<p>Frowning after Tunuaq, Daeron grimaces as he notices Nalvanaq's reaction. <b>"So far as Tunuaq goes, Ameiko, I'm concerned Nalvanaq wanting to execute him if she thinks she has enough support from the tribe. There's a degree of..."</b> Daeron struggles with his choice of word for a moment, <b>"vindictiveness in her manner right now. Obviously such an execution makes any inquiry somewhat more difficult."</b> Daeron manages a small smile at his gallows humor.</p>
<p>Pavel's question and Seila's answer pique Daeron's curiosity and he listens intently to her explanation. <i>I suppose that could make some sense. We are strangers and he is a trusted advisor. It would be far easier to blame it on us than anything. But it makes no sense to think his actions justified on their own merits.</i> Disquieted by the thought, Daeron takes a moment to respond to Theoden's question which gives Pavel a chance to respond. </p>
<p>Snorting in amusement at Theoden's subsequent response, Daeron replies, <b>"I believe I was quite taken in by your false anger, Theoden, as evidenced by my lack of translation. I hadn't the slightest notion that you wished to be a thespian. Perhaps you should consider practicing a show with the rest of the caravan? Most Varisians I've met have had a certain proclivity for song, dance and theater. I find it likely you'll be able to rouse a crew to perform some drama or another."</b></p>

<p>As an afterthought, I've had experience running this on the tabletop so I could probably pitch in as well.

<p>Surprised by Akulayok's outburst as he finishes asking his questions, Daeron translates his friend's words from Erutaki. Nodding as Akulayok touches on many of the same points he had wondered about, Daeron listens for a response from Nalvanaq. <i>It is odd that this revelation hasn't caused an uproar. Why has Nalvanaq not responded with anger? What about the rest of the tribe?</i> Discomfited by the tribe's relative silence, Daeron nods idly to acknowledge Pavel's questions, though it's obvious he's distracted. </p>
<p>Gritting his teeth at the tribe's reaction, Daeron glares at Tunuaq for a moment before opening his mouth. Clicking his teeth shut as Akulayok and Theoden both erupt in angry tirades. Wincing and meeting Pavel's panicked gaze, he motions calmingly to Theoden, declining to translate his friend's words. <b>"Pavel has the right of it. We must remain calm, rational and unflinching in the face of their disbelief. Prove them wrong again and again and they'll see sense."</b> Nodding thankfully as Ameiko chimes in, Daeron claps Theoden on the shoulder (as much as a thin elf can) and says, <b>"Have a seat and we'll give you some time to rant. I don't want to leave these people in thrall to that monster. I can't imagine you do either, no matter how frustrating it is."</b> </p>
<p>Adding a meaningful look, Daeron turns on his heel and clasps his hands behind his back as he strides towards Tunuaq. <b>"Tunuaq, my questions were as follows. Why did you smash the eggs of the dragon, Icy Scourge? As you have explained, you believe it was for the good of the tribe, but I fail to see how killing its hunters could qualify as 'help'. Enlighten us, if you would. Second, did you act alone in doing this evil or did someone, perhaps your patron Sithug directed you to do this? I'm sure it would please a demon, who are notable for thriving on chaotic destruction, to see your tribe frozen and dead on the Wastes after Icy Scourge has killed them."</b> Daeron pauses, levelling a disgusted gaze at the shaman for a moment, before he asks, <b>"Did the Demon Lord Sithug direct you to incite the dragon to attack?"</b></p>

<p>Frowning up at the pale robed woman on the dais, Daeron holds his tongue for the moment. <i>For ill? In what way would exposing demon worship and removing the threat of a marauding, if tragic, dragon qualify as an 'ill' consequence. How kind of this woman to 'allow' me to translate for those who cannot speak Erutaki.</i> The slender elf, eyes icy with a face that may well have been chiseled from rock for it's sharp angles, returns the robed albino's gaze levelly and unflinchingly, <b>"So be it, let us be about our business."</b></p>
<p>As Seila outlines the means by which the veracity of all answers will be guaranteed, Daeron's steely facade remains unperturbed, but curiosity bubbles internally. <i>There is magic at work that I would greatly like to study. It's a criminal shame that this is the situation in which we must meet. A pity, but such is the fickle nature of fate.</i></p>
<p>Biting back a snort at Pavel's quip, Daeron replies, <b>"If not royalty, then perhaps royalty's consort, to be so close."</b></p>

<p>Hi, this is Rikash chiming in with a character. I chose the first array I rolled (18,17,13,13,13,12) and came up with this Urban Ranger. I think most of my crunch should be done, with only detailed gear left to be dealt with. You can see examples of how I deal with gear in a few of my other aliases. I've also got a rough outline for his background, but need to take the time to flesh it out (probably tomorrow evening).</p>
<p><b><span class=messageboard-bigger>Background</span></b>
<br />
<ul><li>Born to a farming family, Johann's father had a habit for gambling that would eventually cost his family their freedom.
<br />
<li>Taken into slavery to pay his father's debts at age 16, Johann served as a galley slave for a couple of years before being rescued by the Amerys' navy.
<br />
<li>Reunited with his sister in Port Maverick (it seems likely Amerys has some system for reunited enfranchised slaves), Johann took to the life of a professional soldier in the Freeland's navy to help make end's meet and to repay the country's help.
<br />
<li>Serving for a number of years with the navy, he proved to be a fierce fighter with a clear head and a talent for the life at sea.
<br />
<li>Selected to receive further training, Johann was given assignment infiltrating the port city's of the slaver nations in order to coordinate the smuggling of former slaves out of various ports around the Eleryn Sea.
<br />
<li>I need some further DM help to flesh out how he's since been reassigned and how he'll be in contact with the rest of the group.</ul></p>
<p><b><span class=messageboard-bigger>Personality</span></b>
<br />
<ul><li>Cynical - Having seen the worst that slavery has to offer both in the process of serving as a galley slave and in infiltrating the great slaver ports of the Eleryn, Johann doesn't much care for the concept that most people are decent at heart.
<br />
<li>Dutiful - He honestly believes that Amerys is out to bring justice to the world and he's zealous (sometimes to a fault) in carrying out what he sees as his duty to his country.
<br />
<li>Career soldier - He's taken to the life of a soldier with full gusto (expect a lot of 'yessirs, nosirs, etc. I think there's a lot of potential for exploring what soldiering life is like in Averys).
<br />
<li>No patience for fools - Having suffered through his father's foolishness, Johann has no patience for idiocy (as he sees it). He particularly disdains those lost in vice and who don't live up to their responsibilities.
<br />
<li>Mercurial - Johann has a tendency to bounce from animated gaiety to abrupt morosity in an instant. The wrong phrase or visual trigger can send him into an unpleasant trip down memory lane.</ul></p>
<p><b><span class=messageboard-bigger>Questions for DSP and the existing PCs</span></b>
<br />
<ul><li>Mechanically, does my character look like a good fit for the group? Do you have any suggestions for me?
<br />
<li>Is there a community where it would be appropriate for me to have my favored bonus go into? I was thinking of some city in which I was previously at work infiltrating before being pulled out to work with the rest of the PCs (preferably before we return there.)
<br />
<li>I'm still fleshing out my personality, but do you have any commentary on what I have so far?
<br />
<li>What languages would be appropriate for a native of Theikon? Is there anything further you can tell me about the culture of the place? If there are many slaves available, slave ownership seems like it should be common and only the poorest wouldn't be able to afford at least one.
<br />
<li>What do you think of my idea for some sort of national effort to reunite enfranchised slaves?</ul></p>

<p>Clicking his tongue in vexation as the number of villagers they'll run across in finding the chief springs to mind. Running over the magic he has available at the moment, Daeron sighs in frustration. <b>"That sounds wise Pavel, in preventing any but the Chief knowing about our conversation. There are currents here at work that could drag us under if we're not careful -I believe that's the Varisian sailor's saying- and we should seek to be cautious where we can."</b> Mulling over Pavel's suggestions, Daeron responds, <b>"That seems like as reasonable a course of action as any. I've no real skill at diplomacy, like Theoden does, so I feel it best that I should accompany you, Pavel. An alternative that presents itself to me is to hide Tunuaq.

Clicking his tongue in vexation as the number of villagers they'll run across in finding the chief springs to mind. Running over the magic he has available at the moment, Daeron sighs in frustration. "That sounds wise Pavel, in preventing any but the Chief knowing about our conversation. There are currents here at work that could drag us under if we're not careful -I believe that's the Varisian sailor's saying- and we should seek to be cautious where we can." Mulling over Pavel's suggestions,...

<p>Nodding his assent, Daeron casts another glance at the the wall as he prepares to turn to leave. Perking up suddenly, Daeron studies the writing on the wall excitedly for a moment and then turns to Tunuaq, <b>"I think we can avoid mentioning that to Sonavut. However it would be helpful if we knew more about this writing. I can read it and I have a few theories, but I want to know. Did you write this, or did someone else?"</b> After Tunuaq answers, Daeron translates the poems from Erutaki to Varisian for the benefit of Pavel, Theoden and Garand.</p>
<p>Musing aloud after having read the poems, Daeron muses aloud, <b>"'She flies who flies; This queen flies away from you'... this seems like two meanings of flies. One as in literally flying in the sky and the other being to flee. 'She is not of the earth; She is of the sky'... this also seems allegorical to me. Perhaps that this she is symbolized by something that flies? Perplexing."</b> Growing more animated as he mulls over the meaning of the passage, Daeron studies the other poem for a moment before beginning again, <b>"Someone close to this woman seems to have written this, but who is this woman?"</b> Daeron raises an eyebrow at his companions, plainly curious if they know more than he does.</p>

<p>Setting aside his misgivings (for the moment), Jokum smiles and nods to the little girl, <b>"Yes I suppose we will aid you.

"It seems there will be a few less fey to bother you. I see signs of their trickery and retribution by the drow." Walking over to look at the tracks identified by the rest of the group, Jokum nods at them and says, "They seem to have passed through here. Shall we continue?" Jokum spends a moment trying to correlate what he knew of the priestess' location with their current location. After giving it some thought, he looks pointedly at the half-orc, frowning.

<p>Thanks for the interest! I'd add some more alt flavor/quirks but sadly I'm at work and my notes are at home (also, I only have so much time while my code compiles). Good luck to everyone and here's hoping you end up picking two instead of one. :)</p>

<p>Vali listened carefully to Elaugvyr, hardly breathing to make out her words above the surrounding chaotic clamor. "<b>I'm surprised that elves live below ground. I haven't met anyone of your people before this. Exciting. Hopefully you'll forgive me, I'll probably have more then a few questions for you.</b>" Vali said, smiling at all three drow.</p>
<p>On hearing Saltuk's suggestion, Vali wolfed down the remainder of his plate as quickly as possible while still remaining polite. He listened to the banter between Gorn and Dresen a little nervously, his brows furrowing slightly as he thought. It raised qualms he thought he had squashed and made him wonder if this was truly the right path to take. Hearing Dresen explain his people's legacy, his concern eased somewhat. </p>
<p>"<i>Perhaps I am being hasty, these people, haven't done anything to warrant such suspicion. Keep an open mind to the world, cleric. It is Her blessing that you get to explore it so and these companions are part of that now.</i>" Vali finished his introspection in time to hear Kalmafein express his interest in going into the city.</p>
<p>"<b>I think that I too will go. I've been to quite a few cities, but none quite as grand as this one,</b>" said Vali, standing. Vali, from force of long habit, does a quick check on his equipment before walking over to the door.</p>

<p>"<b>I am curious, I haven't heard the dialect of Elven you were speaking earlier. Where exactly do you hail from friends?

<p>Even as well traveled and multilingual as he is, Vali cannot understand the clipped exchanges of the elves. He recognized their elven speech, but the other language was nothing he'd heard before. The construct had been quiet, but the question about fighting was unnerving. "<i>Who goes looking for a fight when it's not necessary?</i>" The tiefling and hobgoblin seemed like rough characters, willing to fight at the drop of a hat. As he took stock of his new situation, a wave of grief for Andrezi rolled over him. His face grew blank and his eyes seemed to glaze as he stared at nothing. </p>
<p>He shook himself from his dejection as his new squad mates began to introduce themselves. He bowed politely to Dresen and Saltuk as each finished speaking. "<b>My name is Vali Ramayana.

<p>Vali stood near the railing, enjoying the sea mist as the crew unloaded exotic goods into the gleeful arms of peddlers and lackeys. The tumult of the crowd and the sights and sounds were intoxicating. "<i>Truly, this city is alive and filled with wonder,</i>" thought the simian cleric as he watched the hustle.
<br />
"<i>I think this opportunity was the right one. A well known mercenary company? Truly a fantastic way to see the world.</i>" Vali paused, brooding. "<i>I hope this is the right thing to do.</i>."</p>
<p>Shaking himself out his thoughts, Vali looked around, seeking for the man he was to meet. After a moment looking through the thronging masses, he spotted a likely prospect, standing apart from the dockside hustle. "<b>I do believe that this is my man. He matches the description. I suppose I'd best get on with this.</b>" Vali said in an undertone, thinking aloud as he gathered his things and checked his possessions. No sense in leaving behind his few worldly possessions. Having ensured he had all his gear, Vali walked down the gangplank and off the ship, carefully making his way through the crowd, towards his contact. Before he could make it to the mercenary, one of his fellow passengers engaged the man in conversation. </p>
<p><i>"Now that is interesting,</i>" he thought. "<i>Could it be that all those insular elves could be joining the same group?</i>"</p>
<p>Vali shivered. All three of the elves had made him exceedingly nervous, and to see them now, all joining the Black Dogs, only intensified his concern about his choice. </p>
<p>"<b>No point in worrying about it now, I've already agreed to enlist.</b>" Without further rumination, Vali deftly made his way through the crowd towards the stranger, arriving shortly after the elf had finished his introduction. He paused, waiting to hear what the man had to say. He rubbed his symbol of Desma absently, eager for the uncertainty to end.</p>

<p>Checking in as well. I'm excited to get this going and would like to thank Nightflier for taking me in.</p>
<p>It'll be interesting to play a good character alongside so many evil/neutral characters. I'm a bit curious about the Black Company and its goals. Until I know more, I'm not sure I can make a satisfying tie-in with my character beyond "displaced directionless traveling cleric finds a group of mercenaries to travel with". </p>
<p>As far as the other characters go, it sounds like all 3 drow and Dorn are in it for power/wealth/etc. Saltuk is seeking a community to belong to/make his own (Order of the Dragon). Donato is displaced after being discharged and is looking for a new start. If I've got these base characterizations wrong let me know. The line I mentioned above probably works fine for Vali as well, but there may be more we can do with that. That's up to you Night. :)</p>
<p>As far as combat goes, it looks like a whole heaping lot of smack-down and a touch of ranged glass cannon. So I can play enabler (freedom of movement/anti-debuff), buffer, healer and sometimes melee. Works for me. I'm also a fan of summoning spells, I'm just not sure if they fit the "feel" of my character.</p>

<p>Hopefully you'll consider me for a healer/support type. I've finished up my background fairly satisfactorily and I've still got ideas bouncing around, so we'll see where they go. My most up-to-date background will be in my character's profile, but I've included this version 1.0 for your perusal. All commentary is appreciated. :)</p>
<p>I wanted to talk about my build a bit. I envision myself as a support cleric, enabling the rest of the party and capable of holding my own in melee as needed. As a Cleric with domains of Liberation and Travel, I have movement enablers and dispel-like effects that can turn into heals as needed. As I start picking up 3rd level spells, I'll probably start looking at the summon monster spells as well. One other aspect of the character I'd like to explore is as a scribe, logging the group's exploits. The principal being that this was a task that Andrezi handled at one point, and Vali is slowly growing more accustomed to those clerical tasks. See also, scribing scrolls and other item creation.</p>
<p>Ok, I've talked enough about that, let's talk your ear off some more with my character background:</p>
