Perhaps I can't keep it up consistently. It's hard to admit that, but its probably true.</p>
<p>About every 2 months or so I go through a period of time where work heats up to 12-16 hours a day for about two weeks and then goes back to having little to do for the rest of the time. During those peak periods, I wake in a blur and fall asleep exhausted at the end, with little in between.</p>
<p>The pandemic hasn't helped that in any way, the periodic swings have grown in size. Our re-org at the very beginning of this ended up with me being far more utilized and central to our company. And to top it off, even though I want to get off of this roller coaster, the pandemic has pretty much eliminated job changing at this point.</p>
<p>That's not fair to everyone that this happens and you have to make compromises for me. I hate to admit it, but no matter how I much I love the gm, players, setting, and character, the best thing for all of you is for me to bow out.</p>
<p>Thank you for the wonderful opportunity and the good times, I hope everything works out well for you all.</p>I have been thinking about this campaign and myself for the past day or so as I try to read and catch up.

I have not looked at mythic spheres before, but I'm stuck home now with lots of time to read :D</p>
<p>I'm in a Discord one now that basically does the same as normal PbP, everyone contributes in their own time, same as the DM.</p>
<p>Not having dealt with MapTools, I googled it and now I know why you like it, it sounds good. And now I know why you like to use it live, you need to keep the server up so players can do things. So, I did a bit of poking around because I wondered about hosting it in the cloud on AWS. Running it on AWS takes some effort and unless you're familiar with unix and AWS, I would not advise it. If you are familiar with unix and AWS, this would be your best route. I looked at Azure as an alternative, while there is 1 AWS tutorial, there are no Azure ones.</p>
<p>We use Roll20 for maps, everyone can be given permission to move their own pieces whenever they want, its on the web so always available. I have not DMed with it, but now I've had four games use it, the DMs have said it is quirky at times but allows for good lighting and fog of war. I saw two articles for MapTools users about Roll 20:</p>
<p>1. <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/4932242/couple-of-questions-from-a-maptools-user" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">MapTools user asking how to do things in Roll20</a></p>
<p>2. <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/68298/maptools-maps-to-roll-20" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Using MapTools maps in Roll20</a></p>
<p>Having run campaigns for nearly 30 years and unable to make a single time slot work weekly right now, I miss the immediacy of playing with people live, but now I get to play with people from around the world. I have enjoyed the PbP in Discord a lot but giving up a tool you like and know for something else is a hard choice.</p>I'm interested.

<p>Noticing Whisper still examining her closely she says, <b>"Here's the plan my darling, I'd like you to fly around the town and look for interesting things to show me later.

<p>After Whisper flutters off to the sounds of metal on metal as it beats its wings, Xenobia sighs to herself, <b>"Someday I'll have to teach her how to read the signs on homes, then she might have a chance of finding Brodert.

<p>One last look in the mirror, <b>"Meh, good enough for now."</b> She hoists her bag and wanders off to the inn contemplating how she might modify her diminutive metal companion to even be able to read.</p>

<p>I like the lines "Many of the devout go all the way to the end of River, to fight the never-ending battle to keep the Dark at bay" and "Oddly enough, Volcano's undine worshipers are often his most fanatical"</p>
<p>I see her as being raised in the village and prepared for being a warrior priestess who is dedicated to fighting The Dark (if that's appropriate for this specific campaign). At first a bit reluctantly but she's had visions that have guided her onto this path and towards a life of fighting her deity's enemies.</p>
<p>A bit Joan of Arc like in that's she's a bit young and innocent of the ways of the world and that other's may have motives that aren't aligned with doing good and doing what is right for everyone not just themselves. She has faith and conviction her god will guide and protect her.</p>
<p>I see her being more attracted to The Warrior aspect of Volcano rather than the protection/healing aspect of River. Her character growth will progress from her intense conviction around the honor, bravery, and heroics aspects of The Warrior and need learn the mercy portion (probably the hard way), empathy not being her strong suit at first. I see her sooner or later having to confront loss or defeat which leads to the tears part of his aspect. Finally, she will begin to learn the redemption and self-healing aspect of the quiet acts aspect, humility and self-control not being her most prominent characteristics.</p>
<p>Gung-ho and idealistic are probably the best two words to describe her.</p>I am thinking of an undine sacred fist war priest - I find it hard to see an undine in water using heavy armor.

Sophie spent a lot of time learning martial arts growing up and worked her way through college teaching martial arts and self defense. Growing up in a deeply catholic family she studied comparative religion and mythology. Through a series of events she had a vision and conversation with Athena and she is now her devotee. She's now an adjunct professor at the University of Utah in SLC.</p>
<p>The following is not an official format for a character, just my tallying up of things as I went through the books.

After the shadow thing that is Severn has left, not looking overly surprised at what happened, she'll comment, <b>"Well, that was a hell of a thing."</b> She mugs a big smile then notices no one else either noticed or cared. She grumbles a little but is quickly distracted by shiny objects and starts to dig through the remains of the lab.</p>

<p>As she hears the dragon lumber its way into the room and start to speak, she'll stand up from the lab remains with a big shiny ring that used to be on Lucien's finger but that she is now wearing as a particularly gaudy and ill-fitting belt. She'll twist a little back and forth looking at herself in a fragment of mirror she holds in one hand, <b>"Ah, the height of fashion. Very chic."</b></p>
<p>After the exchange between Tina and the dragon, she'll add, <b>"Oh, yes, many problems with this place. First, the upkeep in goblin chow alone is crazy expensive. The zombies need to be properly rotated and oiled periodically. The front gate is completely undefended and needs to be secured. Bears, adventurers, telepathic oozes, and haunted dolls have already wandered in and I've only been here a short while. As soon as the news gets out, this place will be crawling with looters. And when they hear a dragon is here, well, whoa betcha will they come running."</b></p>
<p>Really getting into it now, <b>"Now, seems to me that a dragon of your prodigious magnificence needs someplace larger to inhabit. This place is already too small for you.

<p><b>Initial Character Background Idea</b> (still working up the whole story, subject to change)
<br />
She was captured by evil cultists that raided and eliminated her small family enclave down near the lava flows. They enslaved and turned her into a practice combatant for the cult's monks. Having led a nonviolent life growing up and not aggressive, she didn't do well. Many rest periods she was left bloodied, bruised, and barely able to move. She spent those rest periods praying to whatever god would hear her that she would be released or be able to survive. One day, Gorum answered her prayers and she felt his power flow into her while she was fighting a trainee. She won her fight by pummeling her opponent to death. After that, everything changed, she became rebellious and difficult to manage. The abuse the cultists heaped on her no longer broke her, instead she mocked them. The next time she went against a trainee, she killed him too, even more brutally than the first one. The cult didn't want her anymore, but instead of killing her outright, they thought to punish her by selling her off to the drow who they hoped would break her.</p>

<p>I have the general concept, I just wanted to see if there was some crunch to back-up the concept. She would be a Samsaran oracle, probably committed to the asylum (just a suggestion) due to visions/voices/etc arising from her curse. Her memories would be coming back but she’d be doubting if they were her’s or her ancestors. I know its kind of weird to exacerbate the problem and its recovery, but I can see an oracle tuned into the ‘cosmic horror’, having glimpsed it in her prior lives (possibly a reborn samsaran from horror) and it haunts her from life to life. (Again, just a general idea to frame how the developments of the campaign would influence her)</p>
<p>The best part of cosmic horror is the gradual revelation of your tiny place in the universe and how it melts your mind. She would be carrying out the culmination of many lifetimes of being exposed to the ‘truth’ and it shattering her each time. It would be the struggle of her playing out a cycle that has plagued her and her overcoming and eventually triumphing (probably :). Banishing this destructive cycle from her lives for good.</p>
<p>Sorry, I tend to think through the history and possible evolution and growth opportunities for the characters then slowly work in crunch to fit, tweaking the character conception some as I discover cool tweaks to a build. It is difficult to not think through the details of her history :D</p>
<p>I’m also very excited at the meta-situation of no men and known limits on trigger things. It’ll be a safe haven, but done with horror - super cool.</p>
<p>I’ll go work up the light crunch, memories, and your other requirements in a few hours when I get home from work.</p>Samy wrote:Tiessa wrote: A quick question: Are the horror/occult books open for use?

<p>When she sees the giant, she smiles broadly at Aukan and hugs him, <b>"It has been too long since I've seen you, Aukan. I'm afraid I don't make it into the city as much anymore. There are so many things threatening the wild and you know me, if there is a wrong to be righted, I'll be there to rip its throat out."</b></p>
<p>As she enters the inn further, an allosaurus the size of a large man enters behind her. It stops to affectionately rub it's head up against Aurok and wait for a scratch on the head. Then it walks over to a corner, it's large talons making loud scratching sounds on the dinghy wooden floor. It circles like a dog and curls up head to tail, occasionally raising its head to look around the room.</p>
<p>Sharda takes off her backpack and sets it on the floor by the dinosaur then wanders behind the bar and starts to root around. Eventually she finds a notched and worn wooden bowl and a hardened leather mug then goes to the water barrel to fill them both. She stands at the barrel filling and draining her mug multiple times as if she was desperately thirsty from running a long way.</p>
<p>Crossing over to the dinosaur, she places the wooden bowl by it. It raises its head looks at it and rests it head back down. Looking nonplussed at the dinosaur she chides, <b>"Show off."</b> A couple of low short hisses almost like it was chuckling come from the curled up dinosaur.</p>
<p>The diminutive woman hops onto a chair at the table, while she's seated her feet don't quite touch the ground. When she's not talking or drinking from her mug, she is motionless like an exquisite statue, only her glittering faceted green eyes move to follow who's speaking. Her movements, when they occur, are sharp and economical ending in another motionless pose. When she's still, her expression is an enigmatic, slightly bemused smile.</p>
<p><b>"Does anyone have any idea what happened?"</b> asks the stone-like woman, <b>"Was it some nobles who are vying for the throne that eliminated the royal house?"</b></p>A short, slight woman not even five feet tall with skin colored like white marble with dark gray streaks in it walks into the inn. Her wild, unrestrained hair has the same coloration and her eyes glitter like emeralds. Fitting loosely around her body are vibrant green, brown, and yellow clothes woven with patterns of dinosaurs among jungle plants and vibrant flowers. On her back is a well worn backpack; she has no obvious arms or armor.

Give her disguise self and she could even pass as a short gnome/halfling for being the party face.</p>
<p>There are other sorcerer options (and yes grease was #1 on my spell list :D it's both prankster-ish and useful). With boon companion I could get to the 8/9 level of usefulness with it. Then she could "transform" via some form of butterfly chrysalis process into a different type of fey (your reworking process you mentioned). Going down the list of fey on the the pfsrd site there are plenty of options to switch to over time. And some nice fey-ish templates along the way.</p>
<p>The reason for the companion is that the character idea is similar to Kaylin the Renegade from the Red Dragon Inn game - if you turn your head and squint enough. Basically a pixie sorcerer with an attitude far beyond her size and an animal companion to back her up with enough muscle so that she can hold her own physically and not just get squished every time she gets mouthy.</p>
<p>Here's a rough writing of her backstory I was working - I still have a number of things to add to meet your submission requirements. She's a bit meaner than I'm used to writing for a character, so I'm not certain of all of the pieces.</p>
<p>[Spoiler omitted]</p>
<p>She's basically a grumpy teen-aged girl who ran away from home because she didn't want to fit into normal, boring fairy society. She'd be the type to shave her head or do a mohawk just to get a rise out of people. And her sense of trickster-ish humor is more similar to Calvin from Calvin and Hobbes, she'd imagine doing bad things, but deep down she could never bring herself to actually be evil.</p>
<p>The goal for her future would be that she'd 'grow up', start to realize what she wants is a group of "people" who accept her for her, and that her talents can be channeled into more productive things than just bugging the heck out of people. Sort of a Puck to Titania progression.</p>Yes, I prefer the "atomie with an attitude" character I'd been working up as well.

Also, the progression of atomie with fey levels makes me unsure of the potential for that to work out - there is no clear progression of fey like that. And being a primary spell-caster would be impossible with half class levels. Although maybe pattern the gained abilities similar to other higher CR fey. Darn, I'd already written a two page backstory :D</p>
<p>One of my other ideas was a ghast archer type. Do a young ghast (so a creepy child undead - she'd been converted when she was a child - no ability to "grow up" just permanently a child undead). The ghast has really good stats for mental, so something like an eldritch archer magus type. Would that be too many undead? Although an undead cleric might be useful to heal all of the undead in the party.</p>
<p>Similar to Helix - any input as to which one would be better? We seem to be meatshield heavy, so the atomie brings super stealth and social skills to the mix. My other idea would bring either ranged or healing/support to the mix.</p>
<p>I think I'll have to go research templates some to see how those would help progression.</p>The half levels as character level max makes me question my first idea of an atomie sorcerer with sylvan bloodline - you get an animal companion with it and having it half (max) of my total level means it will not be very powerful.

<p>I was just talking about this idea in another "interest" thread. The DM wanted to do something similar to the "In the company of..." books.</p>
<p>Have you seen those books? It seems to handle a number of things that you'd want, progressive levels, powers, etc.</p>
<p>Either way, I'm thinking possibly a sprite. How do the "levels" for a less than 1 HD base creature? A sprite is 1/3, does that mean I can have 2 "levels" of advancement? A regular PC race is generally around that CR.</p>
<p>Maybe I'll do one of the outsiders. Although the idea of being an actual dragon is pretty cool. Off to go play with ideas.</p>I love the idea!

Should be fun.</blockquote><p>Just a preview, not the final:
<p>So far for Pixie (I was trying to mimic the bestiary entry)
<br />
4 pts: Advanced Ability Scores (Mental): -2 STR, +4 DEX, +2 INT, +2 WIS, +2 CHR
<br />
2 pts: Fey
<br />
-1 pt: Slow: 20' Movement Rate
<br />
0 pts: Small (the bestiary says Small, I think Tiny would be even more appropriate to Kaylin from the pictures, but it costs 4 pts for some unknown reason)
<br />
0 pts: Standard Language Group: Sylvan
<br />
4 pts: Flight: Fly 30' (Clumsy)
<br />
2 pts: Flight: Fly 40' (Poor)
<br />
3 pts: Fey Damage Reduction: 5/Cold Iron</p>
<p>Abilities: STR: 6, DEX: 20, CON: 12, INT: 16, WIS: 12, CHA: 16
<br />
Pretty close to the bestiary entry, keeping wisdom to the minimum fits into her temper.</p>
<p>I plan to play her as if she were Tiny (like Tinkerbell), even though for some strange reason Tiny costs 4 pts.</p>
<p>Class: Wildblooded Sorcerer, Sylvan Bloodline: Gives Animal Companion @ Level - 3, Min 1
<br />
This is actually perfect for building Kylin, both in flavor and abilities - I googled animal companions to find this combo.</p>
<p>Feat: Boon Companion: Class level is +4 for companion's abilities, max of actual class level
<br />
Makes Wulfric equal to her level and actually useful.</p>
<p>Taking Sorcerer gives me most of the spells of the pixie and I am primarily taking enchantment spells to fit into the Kaylin template. Spells like: Mage Hand and Prestidigitation for general mischief, Polypurpose Panacea (for Sobriety) for drinking, and Charm Person for enchantment</p>
<p>Background Skills:
<br />
Craft (Tattoo): She's a rebel with attitude, tattooing is a natural - especially for tattooing people who pass out drunk :D Granted they are tiny tattoos (this is going into the story).
<br />
Profession (Gambler): She plans to win the gambling hands and beware anyone who accuses her of cheating :)</p>
<p>Regular Skills:
<br />
Fly (of course), Spellcraft, UMD and Bluff (for gambling) and maxed Intimidate (I don't expect anyone ever to be intimidated by a 2' pixie, but she'll try anyway. Shaking her tiny fist and squeaking out her threat.)</p>
<p>Traits, I'm at a loss for finding anything too applicable. Either something to do with having longbow proficiency (like bestiary pixie), Enchantment, Drinking, or Angry Attitude</p>
<p>This has been a very fun exercise of trying to model this character.</p>Nairb the Grey wrote:Tiessa wrote:Now, off to figure out how to do a "pixie enchanter with a wolf animal companion" and a "half-troll witchdoctor with voodoo dolls" as my first attempts.

As soon as the craggy trees appears over the next hill, it becomes obvious why it is called the Sultan's Claw. With five immense, mostly leafless branches, the growth looks more like a giant skeletal talon than a thing of living wood.</p>
<p>As you top the last rise, a caravan of a half-dozen wagons and a large tent clustered around the distinctive tree comes into view. Camels in a nearby pen prance in agitation, and a clutch of confused goats and livestock wander the grounds around the wagons. Perhaps a dozen men and women rush around the campsite, chasing down an animal or hastening toward the center of the cluster, near the Sultan's Claw, with pails of water in their hands. One of the wagons is on fire!</p>
<p>Lush orange and red flames engulf an elaborate wooden wagon emblazoned with painted moons and stars. A gout of smoke pours from an open door, and as you approach an ill wind blows a number of colorful fortune-telling Harrow cards from inside the wagon. One of these singed cards blows directly at John Lo, catching against his chest in a burst of orange cinders. It is the Cyclone, signifying a force that tears through whatever it meets at the behest of an intelligent being. The card portends war, arson, and destructive plans.</p>
<p>As your eyes shift their focus from the Cyclone back to the wagon, the whole of the Sultan's Claw erupts into brilliant flame.</p>
<p>The central flap of an elaborate tent flies open and a regal woman who can only be Almah, Garavel's patron and the one who is calling you all together to recapture the town, steps out into the firelit night. <b>"Douse that flame!"</b> she shouts to the men surrounding the wagon before turning in your direction. <b>"Ah, Garavel!"</b> she says. <b>"And just a moment later than the nick of time, as usual."</b> Looking specifically past her major domo and directly at the party, Almah barks out a simple order before running off toward the fire: <b>"Find some way to help!"</b></p>
<p><span class=messageboard-ooc>The following actions are some ways to help out:</span></p>
<p>Almah, Garavel, and four soldiers dressed in the distinctive red chitin-plate armor of the Pactmaster Guard run back and forth between the burning fortune teller's wagon and an uncovered wagon about 20 feet away. The latter contains a huge barrel holding enough drinking water to serve the entire campsite for a week.</p>
<p>Four burly mercenaries struggle with an enclosed wooden wagon within feet of the burning wagon, hoping to move it to safety before an errant spark causes it too to burst into flame. </p>
<p>A red-headed halfling cleric kneels next to two severely burned mercenaries who tried to enter the burning wagon. The priest is tending to a badly wounded mercenary but he is unable to focus on his second patient, a female sworder who lies near death from terrible burns and smoke inhalation. </p>
<p>A modest collection of pigs, goats, and sheep accompanies Almah's party on the journey to Kelmarane. The flaming wagon has unsettled these creatures, which somehow escaped from their pen in the confusion surrounding the fire's outbreak. The middle-aged human camel driver and his wife do their best to wrangle the panicking animals, but their efforts are quickly being overrun by the chaos of the situation.</p>
<p><span class=messageboard-ooc>There are many other ways you can help out if you want, those are only some of the more obvious ones.</span></p>
<p><span class=messageboard-ooc>I'll be running this round by round to keep track of time, but initiatives are not necessary, just act and post your actions for each round.</span></p>

Garavel is the no-nonsense major-domo of a merchant princess awaiting you at the caravan's destination. </p>
<p>Garavel has traveled throughout Katapesh to gather you and others to aid in the reclaiming of Kelmarane, a remote village in northwest Katapesh. This village once held the southern end of a trade route between Katapesh and Osirion, but it fell upon hard times and has lain abandoned for years. Said now to be the home of a tribe of gnolls in service to someone called the "Carrion King," ruined Kelmarane represents a great possibility to the Pactmasters of Katapesh. If the village can be reclaimed and rebuilt, the trade resulting would strengthen Katapesh's western and northern reaches, a region long plagued by gnolls, monsters, and worse.</p>

<p>If anyone gets greedy and claims everything, we smack them on the nose with a rolled-up newspaper and make them sniff their own poo. :D</p>
<p>We're adults, we can act that way even online.</p>
<p>This way we keep the optimal distribution of items in use by the party, with items generally 'held in common' until they are not useful.</p>
<p>If you purchase an item, it's yours to do with as you want. If you replace it with party loot, then you could sell it to whomever in the party wants it for what you'd sell it for (or a slight discount if you're being nice). This keeps personal money generally constant. It's a bit of an honor system here, because I won't remember every minor ring the party doles out :D</p>
<p>This gets a bit complicated with things like a cure light wand or healing potions, but I'd suggest we agree to buy things like that out of party loot before divvying so they are communally held and there are no hard feelings with the priest buying charged items for communal consumption. And I'd suggest as soon as we get the money to, we buy a cure light wand.</p>
<p>I'd suggest the front line fighter/tank gets the cloak - a single failed roll on a Will attack can charm/command/fear and then we'd be much more vulnerable.</p>
<p>In general I'd suggest the highest resistance item goes to the tank(s) and they do 'hand me downs' to the rest of the party.</p>

<p><b>"If there's anything I can ever do to help you out, let me know.

<p>Personally, I can do without cannon. That much cheap, plentiful explosives can lead to a lot of mischief. Cannon are annoying in a fantasy world, but combine, for example, the ability for a spellcaster to summon flying or swimming creatures and a barrel or two of gunpowder. </p>
<p>Now, any low level caster can take out a ship under cover of night with near impunity. There are reasons that stored explosion spells are difficult, expensive, and have limited activation abilities.</p>
<p>A barrel can dramatically increase the yield of a fire trap spell. And that's just the first two examples I can think of to take advantage of cannon. A low CR creature can vastly increase it's CR effectiveness.</p>
<p>I'd prefer to not have to watch out for those sort of things from other people.</p>
<p>And let's not even get into the problems of trying to secure your gunpowder while trying to load cannon with fireballs whizzing about.</p>
