That would be the shortest character ever.

I had a Character a couple of months ago.

I spent heaps creating him (background, stats, equipment, etc...) as I usually do.
I was late for the session and the others had encountered an Ogre and his wolf pets. They had kept my Character at the back for the 2 rounds I missed and then I got there.
I moved him (forgetting about the Ogre's reach) and got hit for 17. Then I took a swing and hit the Ogre. Then the Ogre hit Amon (my Khopesh wielding Mulhurondi Fighter/Rogue) and Critted him for 28, killing him instantly (reducing him to below -10: he had his head chopped clean off according to my DM).
So I lasted 1 round maybe 2 (I'm not sure if the Ogre's attack was in the next round) and was there for all of 15 minutes before I spent the remainder of the session creating a new Character.

That is such bad such luck! Critical hits, the bane of characters, I introduced the Critical Hit cards from Paizo to try and limit the PC kills. I am currently running Rise of the Runelords, the amount of Ogres and Giants with *3 or *4 weapons is immense. The damage multiples in the deck are usually *2 with other effects.

Poor Fench Wolf almost lost his new elf character in my Tharkad game by fumbling a hit and pitching of a 150-foot high ramp right before the party gets to the dungeon entrance. Only the derring do of his mates saved him from becoming an elf pizza.

I almost lost Vykos in our first battle in Jal Dorak's Red Hand PbP. He dismounted off his Riding Horse and one of the Boss Baddies decided that Reaper (his Horse) would make a good pin cushion. So Reaper collapsed backwards on top of Vykos, crushing him and meaning that the Boss could reach over Reaper's Corpse and skewer him. I think he got to -7 before being stabilized. Reaper even survived after some Positive Energy Bursts from the Cleric hit the area.

Wisdom 7 what can you expect?

Makes for memorable gameplay, that's for sure.

ACK! Slacker monkey will do the same for sarge today ...ICK ..math


I am still ill, stupid bug! Today I feel like I have been kicked in the head, which is nice.

Quick question, what skills have been combined? I just realised I have Spot and Listen as separate skills and I think they have been combined.

Is there anything else that has been combined?

I think the only ones we did were spot and listen as percpetion and move silently and hide as stealth. Other skills as per the srd.

Pat is starting a new PbP here: Homebrew Pathfinder Campaign Prospectus.

Hope you don't mind Pat.


<Glazed look>

New PBP, must resist. Having trouble making time lately...


I just noticed that Z-day is the most prolific modern PBP on the boards.

Cool. Thanks for posting guys!

That is because you made it the best Modern PBP on the boards, I had read a lot of them, but this is the only one I book marked and followed obsessively, like your own private stalker.

Good games are made by Good GM's


I forgot to mention I actually had a dream about this PBP on Sunday night, that will teach me to drink too much wine and eat cheese before bed.

I can't remember much, but I do remember you had one of the google maps of Vancouver up and it had lots of buildings circled, you explained that they were the locations of the nearest helicopter pads.

Weird huh?

Okay, that sounds like something I would really do.

Was it in person. Did I have yellow hair and two inch thick goggles?

Thankfully my wine soaked brain has washed that part away..... It did make me wish I had put some pilot skills on my character sheet.

Hey Moth:

Nice picture of you on page 88 of Endless Night (Pathfinder #16 in Second Darkness).
Did they get that picture professionally taken, or did you just send them one to use?

Oh yeah, James mentioned to me that I was gonna be in Second Darkness. Cool. How'd the pic turn out, do I look good?

EDIT: just saw it. Good likeness.

Geez, now I have a conundrum, when its available as an avatar, do I swap?

Of course you do... It is The Mothman after all!


Wow, Mothman is famous. Cool.


I have to wait a long time for my subscriptions to make their way to Blighty, so it will be a while before I get a look at the Mothman, unless the missed parcel card I received on Tuesday was it.

I am really enjoying this sign up, I have to resist posting every time I see an update.

Hey guys, I’m going out of town for business, not sure on internet access, may not to able to post for a couple of days.

Boooooo!

What movie is it?
All I get when I click that link is an imdb page saying "This video is not available in your country".


Google Quarantine 2008 and you'll find it.


HERE: Interesting, it's a remake.


This was the original. I like the poster.


So Rad. Cthulutech. Next spring. Read the customer service post. Z-Day should be done....

MuahahahahA!

Scarab Sages RPG Superstar 2009 Top 32

Looks creepy. Anyone seen it (or the original)?


They are advertising it on UK TV at the moment, but I won't go to see it at the cinema, the wifey is a bit of a wuss when it comes to scary films.

If there was ever a Forgotten Realms movie, Jonathan Schaech would make an AWESOME Artemis Entreri.

My friend just got this. I was looking at it, but with both Fallout 3 and FarCry 2 I got no time left on the Computer Game front to play it.

Not that I remember. It was just another day.

However, Rone said that I won the Great City contest on my birthday, so that has to count for something...
