We're about to get into the Christmas\New Year fun!

Ive just changed jobs and the good thing is everyone went on leave so its pretty quiet until they all come back in 3-4 weeks :p

Hiya still here!

This one wasnt showing up with activity

Happy to get into it :)

I love seeing PBP celebrate its GMs.

As someone who did the bulk of their 5 Stars then 5 Novas here on the PbP forums I can agree 100% - and the community was always so amazingly supportive.

I'm keen to start hammering GMing in SF2, I just have to finish this current uni study (roll on December!)

LEGEND! Uncle Froggy has been an amazing PbP GM giving us all sooooooo many games!

It's fun to do at the table, though you only have as much time as it takes for a combat round before it's your turn again and you have to come up with something, or you have to crack it out super fast when a skills challenge is announced.

My only irk is that a lot of scenarios encourage it by allowing bonuses to rolls or lower DCs, but in now close to 400 society games I haven't seen many (if any) tables do so :p

"Just roll the dice chief" :p

Yeah I copy/paste now - its annoying..

I have 1 (Campaign Coin) I can play with!

So 2 points it is!

Well the Warrior will be L4 after the first mission so maybe that works - I was just having nightmares about that recent part of the trilogy...

Heya!

I have...

Rogue 6 (would be 7 after the first game though - would that be an issue?)
Witch 4 (available after one more encounter in a PbP - a couple of days)
Bard 3
Warrior 3 (Is that too squishy?)

I know Thursty did run it, I am just pretty sure it never got released - which is a shame as the first one was amazing.

Are you still interested in the 03-04/03-07 arc? I have some games that just ended (or are in the final encounter so I've got some availability)...

Keen

I dont think Part 2 was ever released.

Tapkey thanks :)

HAH! Yeah I'm dubious about the need to spin the billy, but it has caught on as a bit of a thing. It's to ward off the drop-bears.

It's not genuine billy tea without a few tasty eucalyptus leaves adding that little bit of magic. Using the same campfire to cook up some damper - fantastic at the start of a long day in the outback (or even the end, just grab a comfy chair, some tea and damper, and admire the view).

I have a 9 Operative and a 10 Mechanic - Operative is probably the better character in a smaller paerty (wider range of capabilities)

I'm tracking we have:
8 (Chorizal)
9 Cmlobue TBA
9 Redelia TBA

As long as I go a 9 or 10 we stay high tier?

Happy to play as a a replay if you are ok with it?

Just checking for interest. I'm planning to run the Cheliax Arc (03-04 and 03-07) which will eventually lead to 06-12 (Burning of Greensteeples). Anyone interested? Lvl 3-6 nonrepeatable.

I'd be keen n th efirst two but I just burnt Greensteeples! :p

-Weren't really anr Rare/Uncommon feats.
-Didnt really have the starting wealth to buy anthing funky
-Backgrounds were good, but I took the rare/uncommon was feats and equipment, not background, otherwise Scion of Slayers or Seer of the Dead would be fun!

LOL thats a wasp!

@Watery

Didn't really have anywhere to spend the feat/item limit - so everything is common; 75gp didnt go far once the he got dressed (Plate+Shield+Barding) and throw on the basics and he's got about 18gp to his name.

Wasn't much in the Feats for him either, backgrounds had some interesting options like Scion of Slayers or Seer of the Dead - both of which were interesting Rare backgrounds.

yes and yes :)

Let me know when - I have a few residential weeks in Canberra with study, bit otherwise I'm Sydney!

I went with an Orc Champion, also of Pharasma. I'm planning to riff off the Lawric the cleric as that's an easy relationship to build off.

“My kin taught me to survive. My goddess taught me why.”

Thurgan, his broad orcish frame still marked by the scars of Belkzen’s brutal wilds, tightened the straps on his worn steel shield while keeping a wary eye on Grump, the oversized bear cub with a coat of scruffy fur he was still growing in to and a permanent scowl, who was already tumbling through the underbrush and knocking over a pile of rations with careless paws. “We need to go and do our duty in service of Pharasma,” Thurgan rumbled, his deep voice steady with resolve. “Not all of the undead will lay down and accept finality without a struggle; that cleric will need our support.” Despite the cub’s grumbling frustration at being kept from its curiosity at what was inside a backpack he wasn't allowed to pull open, Thurgan smiled quietly. Grump was more than a companion; he was a reminder that even the fiercest orcs must learn patience before they can truly serve fate.

There’s some wild options coalescing in my head

One part of me sees a delicious opportunity to be something odd like a skeletal champion pushing on due to his faith and commitment to the cause - not even death could give him rest from duty

The other side could be a melee bodyguard/enforcer and riff off the pharasmin cleric - because sometimes words and holy water just isn’t enough

We also lack a thief, perhaps a reformed grave robber who saw a few too many overly active corpses and has had a change of tune.

Hello!

Will get some character ideas sorted shortly - Level 3 works.

So we have any obvious gaps in the current line up?

Yay thank you!

All good Ebon, figured it is always best to put the dream out there :)

Thaks Daedin, let me know if things progress!

Great group all, had a fun time and appreciated all the adventures!

He's suggesting perhaps put up a gameplay thread so we can have a bit of loose roleplay and 'getting to know you' with each other before we get into such a high level game - not bad for working out who does what and how we might operate :) We can sit in there until you're ready

What particular seeker games were you looking for, Shifty? I just finished one, and might start another soon.

* EOTT series.

On the hunt :)

Looks like there are a couple of games there light on for players.

Its a shame as there is often so little seeker tier around - still looking for a few myself! :)

I've done a stupid. My Starfinder game of Secrets Long Submerged only have three players when I was sure I had four. Does anyone want to join us? If no one else joins I'm going to have to abort as some are not keen on going into Hard Mode.

Thanks.

Happy to do a replay if you need an additional member :)

/dusts off cobwebs.

The Faction sheets were interesting but not designed to be a chore.

Unique magic item - think Glorymane. There are plenty of other examples but that one is clear cut.

Named text - it would appear as an italicised text in the adventure, it does not have to show up on a Chronicle sheet but it does need to be named.

Also, speaking of Society Samurai, have any Mount options beyond Camel or Horse wound up available?

Perhaps you need to seek a quest for perfection....

Sounds un-fun, glad you've recovered! :)

As long as it isn't the same character I can't see an issue.

Its really funny :)

Excellent effort!

You and Nomadical definitely have the coolest jobs of anyone I know about in the PFS space.

Nomadical is a cool dude too, he's jumping on a cruise ship with us in January for some gaming a well-needed trip to a tropical island :)

I found the operative at level 10 is easily matched by an operative level 5 - they are scaling awfully.

Funny you say Father Christmas, my first name being nick I’ve had the jolly Saint Nick jokes going all trip

Reindeer went well, it’s the elves I had to keep in line

There are Emus and lots of goats. We give the Emus a wide birth after the First and Second Emu wars.

Yep work trip - now at broken hill. We got a call up by a charity organisation who had their logistics provider fall through, there were 3000 Christmas hampers (42 pallets) that needed to be delivered to remote and disadvantaged communities in the outback - buggered if I was going to let some poor bush kids miss out on Christmas - so I loaded up the convoy and hit the road.

(Pic in slides!)

One of my favourite movies :)

Yeah funnily enough we have our own fuel truck in there too, so it's true to life :p

Hitting the road early tomorrow to take a convoy out to Broken Hill (legit Mad Max territory from the films) will be two days out and two days back into the desert. I expect I'll have some comms in the night locations (near townships) but if I lose comms for a day or two please bot me :)

Looking for adventurers to help somebody find the missing deed in Pathfinder Bounty #18: From Family Lost

A Pathfinder Bounty designed for 3rd-level characters.

> SIGN UP HERE < if you are interested. The game will start on November 5.

Still 3 spots left! :)

Then don't do it.
Have fun or don't come.
