Everything is done on Zirul with the exception of purchasing mundane gear and a character background.


Sorry about the delay, had jury duty today, My preliminary scans say the characters are good to go.

OK I need a final roll call then we'll get started. Only Nightflier hasn't submitted a char or updated his Num-rah.

Please chime in to let me know you are ready to go.

Reporting for undead killing...


It occurs to me that I never got around making changes to this char. I have some 700gp remaining to blow, but what the heck. Reporting, once more to the line of duty.

Thankee-sai.


OK, well I have put this off long enough, I am going to get this game officially started this weekend. Just need to do some BG stuff and then there will be a new IC thread posted at that time.

Characters may want to see how they know each other before this, but it is not required. Go ahead and finish BG and equipment purchases, as you are headed into unfriendly lands.

Prepare yourselves, he he.

Nightflier, If you still want to participate then let me know, and I can bring you Num-rah in, or another char.


A new IC thread? ah. Well, I hope you don't mind me porting over my original background posts there. I rather like them. Haha. Hmm, I guess should go stock on holy water. Or not.

Yeah since its a reset, sort of, he he. Since you are the only original one I decided to just rewind your timeline, since we didn't actually start the adventure.

Grand Lodge

Guys, the new IC Thread is up.


Eric, looks like you might want to try and recruit a couple more for the game. Either the peeps haven't seen the game thread or have dropped out...

*snicker* Or they wised up, he he. I will give them until Wednesday to respond, as RL will keep me busy until then.

Hey, Eric. I am still fighting the fever and I have a lot on my plate with Midnight game, so I have to miss this one. Sorry.

Roll call please. I am going to pause this until everyone signs in, or out as the case may be, he he.

Sounding off. Sorry about the delay, it sometimes gets a little too hectic here to keep track of interwebs.

That ended up taking a lot more time than I thought it would, as my grandfather died this weekend and all of the sudden i had a lot of family obligations to attend.
But on the plus side, my connection is back so i'm ready for action again.

Grand Lodge

Just wanted to get some feedback from the players about my GM style, figured since we are in combat, i wanted to see how you are liking this so far.

Seems to be going pretty well so far, Eric. No complaints from me so far....


None here
And, in-game, i'm okay with dismounting as a move. :)

Glad to hear it because it is a move action to dismount.

You might be thinking of fast dismount which requires the DC 20 Ride check.

(From the PF Core book pg. 104) Fast Mount or Dismount: You can attempt to mount or dismount from a mount of up to one size category larger than yourself as a free action, provided that you still have a
move action available that round. If you fail the Ride check, mounting or dismounting is a move action. You can’t use fast mount or dismount on a mount more than one size category larger than yourself.


Ja, I know all that. I meant to say that I'm not even going to bother with the ride check. lol :)


I said this before but:

I'll be out of the country from April 1st to 7th, and I highly doubt I'll get internet access in that duration. Feel free to dmpc my character if needed.

Yet another roll call, please sign off guys. (I feel like I'm a teacher here, he he)


I'm still here! I got this thread being fed thru google reader, which I have on google desktop. I'm here for good (as long as I have internet anyway) =)

Im here Eric.

still here. My computer is still being serviced so i'm depending on friends and my jobs computers to post.

Grand Lodge

knock knock, anyone home?


I'm still here. Waitin for my turn mostly.

I am here. Just waiting for my turn.

Grand Lodge

OK right now, as it stands, we have 2 players Katzor, and Zirul, confirmed as still interested. Ibram has disappeared, and I know Talib is around , but is having computer issues, so he will be given some slack.

There is some interest for me to start a 3.5/PF War of the Burning Sky campaign, and I am considering this strongly. It would start at 1st level, and is set in its own world. So I need to know whether to end this game, and start working on this, or recruit replacement players for this game. I was also toying with trying a couple of 3.5 modules as well.

Let me know what you guys want to do.

HERE is a link for the players guide.


You are the boss, Eric. If you want to try something new, I say go for it.

We gave it the old college try, but unfortunately, this one doesn't seem to have caught on, for some reason.

Whatever you decide is cool with me.

Dark Archive

Ultimately the decision is yours. I wouldn't mind playing in a WotBS game.

Grand Lodge

Ok guys, thanks for your thoughts. I have not decided what I'm gonna do yet, to be honest. RL plus all my other PbP have taken a lot of my time, so I will go ahead and put this game on hiatus for now. If I bring it back, I will let you guys know. Also if/when I do the WotBS thing, I wll give yoiu guys first crack at it. I do need to learn how to do maps though, it would help a lot, he he.

Thanks for playing with me, and if you have any critiques to make me a better DM, please don't hold back.

I'm running EtCR for a 4e pbp and was just checking out your thread. For maps I found this map gallery. I just open the map in paint and import the image of the PC's and monsters and move them around as needed. See this map and this map for examples of turn by turn play.

At first it seems like a lot of work, but once I got used to it, it's not so bad. Here is our pbp thread so you can have a better look.

Thanks, Ghettowedge, if I ever revive this I will check out the maps. BTW, I have been peeking at your thread and I do like what you have done with the 4e adaptation of this module. How difficult has the 4e conversion been for you?


M half-orc Dungeon Master lvl 18

Most of the work is handled by the Monster Builder. The challenge has been digging through the ridiculous number of monsters on there to find the ones that fit the feel of the original encounter. EtCR already has good 4e design (multiple monsters, interesting combat areas) and for a lot of encounters I could just swap monster for monster. But 4e is still young and a lot of monsters haven't been done up, and classed creatures don't convert well.
