I know I already told you guys, but for the rest of May my output will be very sparse due to work but I'll try to post as much as I can when I have free time between working 16 hours a day and sleeping the rest, and don't worry Noel, Wrath will still happen as planned.
Just got back from Boston and about to go knock the hell out but I'll toss me guess at this.

Guy seems like a bully, definitely is a fan of inflicting pain, he's pretty sloppy in his work and dollars to donuts he's a pretty big coward I'm going to guess that he's either chaotic evil or chaotic neutral but if he is CN he's so close to evil it makes no difference.
Well at least Greyfield enjoyed the show, but yeah I get what you're saying it does seem a little off-putting that for an AP where we were told to expect very little hand-holding the first problem we face we're guided through it by the chick from Mad Men.
Interesting take on the the sound of Aklo but it is actually older than Lovecraft being first used by Machen in I think the 1890's in the story the White People.
Our 16th level Cleric died, my Wizard brought her back to life with a Limited Wish. Snark's 14th Level Fighter cohort died, a few other PC's were in the negatives. But both Wizards and the Ranger hardly took damage.
It was nearly a 2 1/2 hour fight, that's all we did for the game. It was like several battleships trading shots, with the escort ships being sunk (well and brought back to life).
Fun campaign, little bit heavy on the Dungeon Crawl but still good.
Ed was clearly more forgiving. He cast Disjunction and did not hit us with all the effects of the spell.
You were actually worried? Even with my Inquisitor, "El Capitano Whoop-ass" leading the charge?
If you like Abyssal ... your probably drunk right now. And naked. Riding a blind bull. That you just raped.
That sounds like a standard saturday night where I come from...
What's your take on Aklo?
a little tidbit on Aklo:
As something of a minor Lovecraft scholar what I typed when I talked to Khara actually was in Aklo, it just didn't mean what I said it meant. It actually translates as "I'm sorry, I forgot your name."
It's looking like this weekend will be pretty hectic for me so I may not be able to post until saturday night, as a warning if I do post before that it'll most likely be from my phone so be prepared for typos and unformatted text.
I see on other peoples chars that they say what their feats and traits do. Do you want me to do that too? I have no idea how to do the stuff where you click to see it.
Click on the thing that says format your text under the message box
So time for some out of game discussion, Noel you ready for our big throwdown with Xin later today? Just wait till you see how much damage I'm gonna be pumping out
Oh and one more thing, this one aimed at the other rogue and the bard, how are you guys building your characters
I'm building Khara to be an evil mastermind- social skills, lots of knowledge, some magic, but mostly suited to manipulate other people to do the work.
She has disable device/also for magical traps. +8 UMD.
As for healing: I think the spells I got will be more useful than healing. But you're right, the oracle does get an extra healing/inflict spell. The problem with infernal healing is that it requires components (devil blood/unholy water). Would it make sense to take it?
Well two social skill set characters won't be a bad thing, especially if we can work past our differences, I'm sure if we work a room together they won't know what hit them. As for the magical traps, my archetype doesn't have trapfinding so that'll be a job I'll pass on to you.
I've given Ana a slight accent only because Brave was on when I typed out her first bit of dialog, now as I'm not all that great at accents it may slip from time to time, also if it gets annoying just let me know and I'll drop it completely.
It is a very 'Golarionesque' world, in fact you could say it strongly mirrors Golarion.
A lot of Golarion's rules apply here, some do not.
Let's call it 1/4 Golarion, 1/4 Greyhawk, 1/4 Forgotten Realms, 1/4 our Earth from the late 1400's and call it a day.
The gods of Golarion are present but Mitra, the Lord of Light dominates the religious landscape.
Think Church of Rome at the height of her power.
So we can use the names of countries that exist in Golarion with no problem?
Oh and one more thing, this one aimed at the other rogue and the bard, how are you guys building your characters, I am planning on focusing more on social skill, but if either of you two want that role I can pretty easily aim for something different, I have no problem pulling a Pete Rose and playing a different position, or sliding headfirst into things.
Because they have the personality and memories of the caster that became them. Think of it as less them having a gender and more that they still think of themselves as male or female.
