Hm... why this was a good idea.

Ah! Because otherwise you'd have no place for us to discuss stuff out of game?

That is the question Dartalis is asking himself about going into Rappan Athuk )

Ha ha!! Very good.


The question Erion asks the gang as they travel along.

In other news, I'll be posting soon, and finishing my sheet in a few hours.

I like your background for Marcus, RaFon. It fits your character well )

Being super busy sucks.

I only had enough time for one IC post tonight (and it wasn't very long). I'll have some free time tomorrow though, and I'll get to some posting then - as well as uploading my character.

Sorry for being slow guys.


I think we all suffer from RL, so no worries if people cant always post.


Really enjoying this so far. Just wondering where in the real world people are posting from?

Quite a way away my friend - a little town near Manchester, England.

Since we haven't heard from Theledor or Klor for a while, I was just wondering if you guys are still with us?


Male Human Rogue 1

I've read anything about this post from the beginning because I'd have loved to play in it... I'm not sure that Theledor or Klor Kragsson are really gone away but I'd use one of their characters until they'll remain missing in action... even if I think I'd have more then a problem with Klor dwarf slang.

If your up for it Sneaky, I can happily make room for you. Please go ahead and create a new character, at 4th level. Anything from the 3.5 core players handbook. A fighting type might be a good idea, perhaps a Barbarian or maybe something Dwarf? I'm pleased that you have taken the time to keep up with things. Glad you like it so far.


Male Human (mostly) Ex-cleric and Grumpy Cat

I'll just take the opportunity to chime in and say that you seem to have a great game going, one that captures the horror that is Rappan Athuk.

I'd love to game with you but I have run the adventure several times. Suffice it to say that I'm jealous like hell, even though you will probably all die horribly.

Thanks Tom. Appreciate the comments. Especially from someone who has run it.

Ok I'll create a PC... Sorry for my previous intrusion but I misunderstood what you wrote down asking for a signal from your m8s (Klor and Theledor) and not, as I thought, from some new possible replacement. However... so doing I catch the opportunity :)

I'll wrote down a 4th level character soon while if you prefer to just let me use an already available frozen characters (cloned until real owner returns) just tell it to me, I think this could be a good way of make things in a pbp always rolling.

So as not to offend anyone Sneaky, i would just prefer you to create a new character. Let me know when you have one and I will slot you into the game.

Ok thank you Dr. Dark! I think you're right.

I'll do a new character this week... at the moment I'm involved in another starting pbp but I'm still reading all your adventures in Rappan Athuk so that I'll be ready when your group will find a deeply wounded warrior somewhere inside that grisly place...

P.S. I'm happy you'll have again to wait for the short Klor legs... welcome back dwarf...


Male Human Rogue 1

Here is a possible human fighter your m8s could find somewhere in Rappan... perhaps deeply wounded and with some memory problems... In the meantime I'll continue following the adventures of your group... front doors are going to be opened... when you'll need me I'll be there to answer your call Dr. Dark!

Good luck


Sneaky, a couple of new characters are going to be joining in the next day or so. They will have been following the main party and will meet up with them at Rappan Athuk. If you would like to be among them let me know.

Do we use Pathfinder Beta or final rules?


To be honest, the other players have used standard 3.5 rules. If you can use them it would be good. If not, i'm sure we can still work it out ok.

It'd be wonderful... Dr Dark! In the meantime I'll continue, as I was however doing, to read your pbp... And gratz all for your first battle against the dark skeleton :)

Weelll... I'm playing from my laptop right now, so right now I have only PFRPG Beta in pdf and PFRPG final rules in hard copy in my backpack. If that's a problem, I can bow out. I don't want to annoy other players and make problems for you.

There's always the d20srd.org site. They have the 3.5 rules online.

Yeah, I know, but I'm in love with Pathfinder skills. Well, no matter I suppose. I'll remake Num-Rah using srd. (But I'll keep Pathfinder backup, just in case).

I'll do the same with Ilona. I think that gives me acces to some feats that'll boost her, albeit fewer feats overall.

It's not a problem Nightflier. I cant see it unbalancing things at all.

I would really like to use Pathfinder, but it's ridiculous that my character uses Pathfinder and all the rest 3.5, so I'll convert Num-Rah, but perhaps not as paladin. Is the Book of 9 Swords allowed?

Yap. Num-Rah, crusader of Jazirian is to be born tonight. You know, Ilona could be swordsage?

HMM.. I'll give it a look, might be fun.

I have several questions: 1) Which splatbooks are allowed? 2) Is litorian ecl +1 now or what? 3) If you remember, one of the main concerns for my character was making a Litorian Direclaw before fifth level. I'd like to use stats for the great falchion (Sandstorm)if that's okay with you.


Female Human (Sarcosan) Fighter 2/ Chaneller 3

Here's what I have so far, still a work in progress though.

What is starting wealth for a 4th level character?

Don't worry, I have way to get the dead characters up and walking again!

Which may or may not involve the scrolls and black onyx gems in my backpack... ;)


Ulven the Northman has been updated to 4th level using 3.5 edition rules and 5,400 gp for starting cash.

I have few things yet to brush up, but Num-Rah is ready to rumble. How will the three of us be incorporated?

Edit: It seems to me that I didn't calculate hit points right. What are the rules? Max at 1st level and then roll + con, or what?

Yes, thats how I tend to do it.


Your group will have been cautiosly following behind the first group. You catch up to them as they are just emerging from the main tomb(which is due to happen in the next few posts).

I am assuming that you have read the posts so far so that you have an idea of what has occured.
