Hey all - sorry I went missing. I also got kicked off, and did not know how to get back on until a friend told me this evening. Will try to read up on the 40 missed posts before I go to bed tonight.

Hey - best job is being a Meteorologist, you pretty much screw up 50% of the time, and nobody cares.

Thus the reason I play casters - so far fewer rolls to screw up.

Xia will continue to carry Merlan so that he can cast and direct her from his new higher perch.

All - I apologize if I have been delinquent. Somehow the window with this game it it got closed, and have been really busy and totally forgot to check. I will try together caught up later tonight or tomorrow, and definitely by the weekend.

If I could draw half that well, I would be happy. My best drawings usually resemble a disabled stick figure.

Oooh - halfling soup. Sounds yummy.

Now I am confused. How would churches have put a hole in your radiator? Perhaps if you ran over the steeple of a very small church, but I really do not think that any normal size church is responsible for the holes in your radiator.

I would offer to draw something, but I am pretty sure the best you would get is a demented non-Euclidian stick figure.

Is it possible to drive someone mad if they are already there?

Sorry for the slow posting. RL has been really busy.


Male Gnome Sorcerer/9 - (HP: 49/49 - AC20;FF17;T18 - F+5;R+6;W+7 - Init+9 - Per+11)

I am great at drawing. I can beat most 3-4 year olds at stick figures the majority of the time. That is about the end of my skills.

It seems to be random. I often forget, but usually try to copy all the text before hitting post on long posts, so that I do not lose everything. It has been doing this for years.


Male Gnome Sorcerer/9 - (HP: 49/49 - AC20;FF17;T18 - F+5;R+6;W+7 - Init+9 - Per+11)

Did the now enlarged orcs move? I thought that Enlarge Person was a 1-round action, even from a potion. If so and they moved (I think that at least one did), they should loose part of their next round actions.


Male Gnome Sorcerer/9 - (HP: 49/49 - AC20;FF17;T18 - F+5;R+6;W+7 - Init+9 - Per+11)

Remember, what takes you - a computer geek/techie/nerd/(other name for a gamer) - several hours, would probably only take a trained adventurer with full knowledge of their and their companions skills a few moments to figure out.


Male Gnome Sorcerer/9 - (HP: 49/49 - AC20;FF17;T18 - F+5;R+6;W+7 - Init+9 - Per+11)

Xia can disarm magical traps. Her perception is terrible, so someone else will need to check to see if they can find one, but she is decent, +7, at DD.

I'd recommend the latter.

Speed is fine. Only tough when they are really long posts that I have to digest. I think we all know how others usually react, or will learn soon. Also, the quick posting is great when it is one person sort of on an aside, so that everyone else is not waiting for days.

Trust me, the quick pace is much better than some games where everyone is waiting for days for one person to respond to something.

As a side note, while Xia is generally not very useful, she can cast CLW 6 times if necessary - the joy of being an oracle.

Last I checked, Halfling was considered an appetizer by most IRC’s.

I am good with the forced march for 2 hours.

Ah yes, purify food and drink. One of those spells nobody ever seems to take or think of. One of my favorites. Especially when I have silent spell, so I can cast it with my hands under the table.

Considering the nature of the movie, might be better in cruddy You-tube vision, or on a 33 1/3 vinal vision, we need to bring that one back.

You asked for it Braniac, Your getting the full Adventures of Baron Munchausen treatment now! :)

1988 (1989) movie, the studio made it a 'flop' on purpose. It is a brilliant gem of fantasy tale-telling, IMHO it is well worth the 1-1/2 hours of your life to watch it. I believe it is on Netflix.

And yes, that IS Robin Williams as the 'King of the Moon' going uncredited. The name used for 'King of the Moon' in the credits is Italian for 'King of Everything' :)

A truly awesome movie. Pseudo-Monty Python.

I think you should reskin your familiar as a chicken and then explain that you have been delayed for the past several days as the chicken was distracted by corn than some farmer had spilled.

Somehow I totally missed the background skills, I will add 2 more. Probably going to go with Handle Animal (grew up in the wild) and linguistics (Aklo (she really should know the language of the troublemaking fey)).


Male Gnome Sorcerer/9 - (HP: 49/49 - AC20;FF17;T18 - F+5;R+6;W+7 - Init+9 - Per+11)

My vote would probably be Slayer. Lots of skills, medium armor (doubt you would ever want heavy with the penalties, but mithral breastplate with the feat that reduces spall failure by like 10% would be a good combo at some point for better AC. Would also give you all the martial weapons, and as mentioned the favored enemy, or whatever it is called for a slayer, is nice, especially since you int should be so high that you will almost never fail a check.

Having been a Type 1 diabetic for nearly 5 decades and being formerly uninsurable without agreeing to work for a corporation that provides health insurance, I shall refrain from discourse regarding this matter.

Sheets look pretty good. My only thought is that the total in column B should probably be the sums of columns D, F, H, J, L, N & P. That way we know the total value distributed by the GM. When people move things to their character sheet, the items would be deleted.

I will think about things, but if we set it up right, Tilnar could add loot when we get it, and then we can divide it.


Male Gnome Sorcerer/9 - (HP: 49/49 - AC20;FF17;T18 - F+5;R+6;W+7 - Init+9 - Per+11)

I was building characters for my sons (14 and 16, both are 1 session short of their first GM glyphs for 2ed - yes, we have the future of Pathfinder gamers). Keeping track of my 14 characters was impossible, let alone the half dozen each of them had, plus their friends, etc. Finally I gave up on PCGen, because it was just too slow on updating things, and I did not have the time to learn to program. So, yes, it was expensive, but I think in the end worth it for the 30+ characters I had to keep track of.


Male Gnome Sorcerer/9 - (HP: 49/49 - AC20;FF17;T18 - F+5;R+6;W+7 - Init+9 - Per+11)

I have no clue why I have it, but apparently I do have the vigilante in HeroLab. Have no clue when I would have bought the Ultimate Intrigue pack, but apparently I did at some point. Who knew.

If you let me know what you want, I should be able to create the character. I have never exported to a campaign, so someone will have to walk me through that. If there are special options you are looking at, I might not have all of them, but we will see what I can do.


Male Gnome Sorcerer/9 - (HP: 49/49 - AC20;FF17;T18 - F+5;R+6;W+7 - Init+9 - Per+11)

Nice - I will take max hp.

Ok all - working on my character finally. Think I am almost there with the concept here are the hp rolls.

hp: 2d4 ⇒ (4, 4) = 8

Cool - trying to figure out a decent background. Think I have it pretty much figured out, just need the time to write it up now.

Hey all - somehow in my complete ineptitude, I forgot that there is more than the recruitment thread. Now that I found this, are you all still waiting for me to come up with a concept? Or do you already have a party. I really like the Apocalypse Mystery Oracle, except the revelations really suck (sad face). Thinking about the Whimsy Mystery. Yeh, not the most powerful, but seems like something to build on, and with all the personalityless characters I have seen being thrown around (Ranger? Shifter? Druid? Warpriest? Gnome? (okay, possessed gnome sorcerer might have some personality), I figure that a fey touched oracle with the wrecker curse (everything she touches turns to sh*t) sounds like fun.

If you all want me around, let me know and I will keep working on this. Have to run games Thursday and Sunday, but hope to have a concept before next Monday.

Hey all - posting here just in case. Trying to decide whether I have time for a pbp campaign. Had a great time playing with Tilnar in multiple games a long time ago. I have not played 1ed in almost a year - although with 5GM stars, I played enough that I can probably remember. (Yeh, I actually have 5 stars, Paizo does not appear to know how to check the box to have the 5th star show up on my avatar). If I play, it will probably be something simple. I have had a lot of fun playing oracles in recent times, so that is an option. Will have to see what else people are considering.

Does anyone know why when you record one of the AP books, it only registers 8 Prestige rather than the 12 Prestige it should? I input it as 12 Prestige, but only see 8 on the system. I went in to edit it to change it to 12 prestige, and after saving, it still says 8 prestige.


Pathfinder Adventure, Lost Omens, Rulebook Subscriber; Pathfinder Battles Case Subscriber

I am wondering about the time slots. Is there any chance for a wider range of time slots? Right now on Warhorn there is a bunch of games posted for 3pm to 8pm Eastern Time, I believe noon-5pm PST. Using these times, it makes it very difficult to play games during the week, or for 4 of the 6 days, if one works. Assuming there is a late session, this would go from 9pm-2am (6-11 PDT), really late.

I know that it is impossible to satisfy everyone, but since this is online, perhaps running two separate sets of time slots (games starting every 3 hours) might be a wise choice so that almost anyone in any time zone would be able to participate in at least 1-2 game a day.


Pathfinder Adventure, Lost Omens, Rulebook Subscriber; Pathfinder Battles Case Subscriber

Having now run this scenario 7 times, with at least 2 more scheduled, I have a question. There are two routes to complete this scenario. In one of them, there is a treasure given, which has a substantial value (commiserate with the level 5-9 scenario), but for the other option, there is absolutely no treasure that I can see. Is this intended? I simply put the same treasure in both options to solve the discrepancy, but am wondering whether this lack of treasure in Option Two is intentional, or if there was a mistake in the drafting and the treasure for Option Two was forgotten.

As an FYI - I will be at GenCon this weekend, so very light posting Thursday through Sunday.

If anyone is going to be there, I will be running a ton of 10-03 Death on the Ice, if you want to find me.

if you are short on Saturday afternoon GMs and need to switch me to a Saturday afternoon slot, and give me a free slot on Thursday or Friday afternoon/evening, it would probably be much easier on my throat versus running 7 straight sessions as I am now.

We are short in all slots so moving existing GMs does not gain anything. We need more GMs and/or existing GMs to take on more slots. Until that happens we cannot add more tickets.

No one is running more than three consecutive slots. That is simply not a schedule will will subject anyone too. Running three in a row and having a slot off the rest is fairly typical at GenCon especially for GMs who run 8 slots.

I don't consider the midnight sessions as sessions (too old for that foolishness), I know they run, but I only look at morning-afternoon-evening as the regular slots. I do have the Thursday and Friday midnight slots free to sleep.
