Oh Quick is so fine. I'm having a blast, and we've all had a stressful couple of days. Quick's not really in it for the gold, as she is pretty self-sufficient.
It must be really difficult on Tom (and you others) to have what seems like such a loose cannon running around (not sure if I mean me or Quick; possibly both), but I appreciate you putting up with her.
She's got a heart of gold, and can't stand slavers or corruption, something that you are all beginning to suspect might run deeper than her encounters here in this town. Perhaps she'll spill her origin story at some point.
But until then, she's willing to head off after the bandits or wherever as long as she can be assured that we're not leaving Beamus and the others to their deaths. If she feels comfortable that he and the volunteers can defend the place, she'll head out at dawn to the forest or wherever we decide. It would be interesting for Quick to meet Hella and Royl at some point. Outnumbered by Halfings!
Either way, leaving in the morning hopefully gives us enough time to level up, and be prepared. I've chosen new spells for Quick, and she has a number of scrolls now. If anyone has any suggestions in that regard, let me know.
But if we do decide to take Raven and Clark, it will be nice once they have class levels. Raven able to cast cure spells for the group will certainly help out!
I'm cool with Quick, and the two new guys I am down with whatever. Which leads me to Brock... I dont know if anyone has noticed but I am playing Brock a little easy to control. He is overly trusting, and just wants to do what's good. If I need to be more articulate about what he wants just say the word, but I'm having fun just playing the Dumb/Buff older brother type.
It would appear that Robin/Juliare was partailly right in his reading of the Paizo Beta. On page 394 of the Beta document it discusses magical weapons overcoming certain types of damage reduction. Unfortunately, the weapon is required to be a +3 weapon to overcome damage reduction X/silver.
I think the Beta rules capture the best of both worlds. But you'll still be needing silver weapons if you go down the sewers.
To discuss this a little more , for me , the 3.5 was a big problem with this . if you wanted to be prepared as a fighter , you had to have cold iron/silver/adamantine weapons or else follow the two handed weapon /power attack . You also had to have bludgeoning/piercing/slashing versions of all of them !
Ah yes, I knew many a fighter who carried a bag of holding for just such a reason.
we seem to be in a holding pattern until the start of next week...
Yes, feel free to speak to the beggar if you like, but I'm not starting any major fights until everybody gets back.
Where is everyone?
No idea. I'm here, I'm just bleeding out. :(
Yeah, I'm trying to fix that, but have to wait til next round. ;)
I'll post for Brock, if you give me the okay, BT.

Please do.
Well, if I had a conscience, I guess it would be pretty soiled by now. But I guess you'll pull through.

Quick will, anyway. It's hard being the healer! Her electricity stands a pretty good chance of doing damage, but she's got to prioritize! I just wish you would all stop dying!
;)
I'm scared to Channel energy. The last thing I want is for any of those creeps to stand up again. A certain scenario involving an Orc, a dog, and a Proteus comes to mind...

Oh, the pain. I remember that too well. ;)
Yeah, that ability is all about positioning. Until, that is, you get the Selective Channeling feat.
In case of TPK , what would be the procedure ?
That's when you start spending your hero points like crazy. That or try to butter up the DM.

HOLY! I just saw the last round and those ratguys are messin y'all up. Even if you manage to survive than half of you will be wiskered by the end of it. Never fear, the other party will hunt all the "new" ratmen down <grin>. I wouldn't bother with the butter up part as I think BT thrives on being cold and heartless ;)

Hush there, you're giving the game away. I thrive on being cold and heartless and buttered up. *evilgrin*

Well, they say a cat has nine lives. Here's to a dwarf having at least three (after the golem debacle).
Is the long delay from a desire not to kill me, Tom? ;)
No, I'm waiting for Quick to take an action. But you can make your second save while we're waiting. (Fort 11).
So I waited sorry did know you wanted me to go before her.... but is this game over it kinda feels like it died..?
No, I don't think the game is over as such, but I'm trying to wrap up this combat. Feel free to post.
xdahnx's posting has slowed considerably (I guess school does that to you) and I have a new job which takes its toll, but I'll try to keep the action going as long as anyone else is interested.
After we finished the combat and you've either looted or fled, we can see who's still game.
Welcome back, xdahnx. No worries. Now if you could spare the time to post for Vautrin, too, that would be appreciated... ;o)
After we finish the sewer business, I think it's an excellent opportunity for a roll call: who is still interested in playing, who is interested but can't post as often as once a day and who is dropping out? No hard feelings, but it's good to know.
Raven and Clark will take their first PC level, so they can probably fill out the party if needed. Or we could recruit another player. But of course the best thing would be if you're all still willing to play on.
I'm still in. In fact, I've just rolled for my next level's hit points: Hit points (1d6+4=10) Woohoo!
I still need to know what happened after my utter inability to roll about a 5 on my Fort saves, though.

This is the part where I legitimately bow out. Immensely lame, but a number of things have popped up that I wasn't anticipating. I haven't even played my tabletop games in two months.
I loved this game, and if things clear up again, I may be back, hovering about. BT, a refreshing game, for sure!
This goes for Vautrin too, unfortunately. I know it was just starting, and I hate to sabotage that action.
I'm going to have to suspend the three games I'm DMing too. It's not working! Be safe, everyone.

Well, it's been great having you, and if things should look up, Quick is welcome to make an appearance in any of my games (if they are still running). It's good to know, though, and good luck to you with whatever you need to spend your time on.
I am also still in and will work on getting Thrakhir to second level. If he survives in the wererat den and multitudes of ratmen don't trap him inside.
I don't know how long the "I want in this, too!" list is, but you can put my name on it. I don't know if you need another character or if you want someone to take over Raven or Clark, but I thought I'd mention I'm open to the idea.
You guys are too much fun to pass up another opportunity to play with y'all.

Aww, how could I say no? You're of course more than welcome, and if you would consider taking over either Raven or Clark, that would be just splendid.

BT:
Anything special you had in mind for converting the Paladin of Freedom to PF rules? I haven't looked at anything yet, just found your post, so maybe it's obvious and I just don't know yet.

If you don't take Raven, something with some healing oomph would be nice. PF paladins, at least the ones that use these rules, are healers on about the same scale as 3.5 clerics are, and of course PF druids are somewhere around there as well, plus or minus. A bard would also work, but I suspect you'll want to do something a little less Roylenna-like.
BT:** spoiler omitted **
If you're OK with playing Clark (you can restat him any way you like), a player in my tabletop game has stated his interest in playing a cleric. Who knows, he might be persuaded to take on Raven.

I'm game to take Clark, and the Paladin of Freedom sounds worth a shot, too. I was debating suggesting a melee fighter vs a healer, and wouldn't you know Tom had both in mind!!
Earlier thread indicated 20-point buy, so I will work up some stats based on that. You said he would be taking his first PC level -- does he already have an NPC level as warrior, or is he literally 1st level?

For the record, if you are planning to adapt the PF paladin I linked to for this (which would be awesome, you should probably be aware that the healing doesn't really kick in until 2nd level. From there on out, though, it's all good.

He's literally 1st level. Let's set his xp at half of what Thrakhir and Kirwen has.
I'm still in..
