Starting up the thread for those of you playing in the Council Of Thieves (COT) Play-By-Post (PBP). Once you have your character created post it here and I will check it out and let you know if there are any issues.
We will roll stats using either standard (4d6, drop lowest) or heroic (2d6 add 6). Races can come from the COT players guide. Traits are preferred to come from the COT player's guide but can also come from the Pathfinder Character Traits Web Enhancement with prior approval. Both found here.
Choose 2 traits when creating a character. Please add character background with character creation. Setup character's like this.

Here is the Pathfinder SRD for those who don't have a core rulebook. May not be exactly the same, but hopefully better than nothing.
asbestos muffins, cause were baking muffins asbestos we can. im not a very good open brain surgeon, but i will take a look anyways.
William Leroung, I need you to identify which spells you have prepared before we game.
Mars aka Creeping Death, I will need a list of spells you prepare for the day along with Domain abilities that you have for the domains chosen.
"knock knock"

William Leroung, I need you to identify which spells you have prepared before we game.
Nevermind William Leroung, I see where you have your spells listed as prepared. My bad!!!!
I improved.
Hey Yoki, when we go to perform I will lead, you just aid me.
My name is Lucius Angel and I have come looking for justice. If I have to kill to make that happen, then so be it!
Sweet soon we canget started. I think I like this group. Except that freaky one with the cloak.
Looks like everyone is ready to go. I will begin with a little introduction to the adventure then go into the game. Everyone make sure you have a copy of the players guide(a link is above for those who need it).
Good Luck.....
Begin...remember to come back to this post for questions or anything else outside of the game. Everyone should be mentioned in the game now, so post as if you were creating a story with your character.
Hey Yoki, when we go to perform I will lead, you just aid me.
** spoiler omitted **
Hay Haven,What does it mean to aid one another its says you gain a plus 2 on ur skill
I would gain a plus 2 on Perform if you aid me. That is correct. Ready to Rock?
Hay Damian u there?
Hay I dont see the reg. play by post where is it ??
Heres a hyperlink to the post.Hay I dont see the reg. play by post where is it ??
Thanks,William Leroung that helped
noticed an error in my character sheet. I am wearing light armor with no profeciency.... I fixed the mistake. I now have a AC of 12 so if you don't mind, PROTECT THE MAN WITH NO AC!!!
THIS could be a problem... My AC is only sixteen so get the brain surgeon with the hood to do it. Besides I'm gonna' be busy blowin' the souls out of the classical music lovers hearts and faces soooo...
Ya I only have an ac of 17 so I will probably be with Jhon most of the time melting the faces of cheliax,ya but that gut with the hood will have your back.
Lucius throws a punch to James, in an effort to remind him who he is dealing with; but James, 'blessed' by a similar heritage as Lucius, is a little too quick and the blow misses
Ok so should deadpool not get his DEX MOD if he didn’t know I was an enemy. or at least have to do a perception check to see if he so it.
First off I want to appologize...when I put in the other post to come over here I had already posted in this thread but for some reason it didn't 'stay'.
Second, you are correct. I had totally forgotten about James being flat-footed when you attacked and he should have been hit. Unfortunately by the time I posted and then realized what took place I could not edit the post to make the changes.
Sooner or later we will have an encounter, so when that happens how do we want to handle it.
1) Everyone posts based on initative (may slow posting down some since we would possibly have to wait for people to post to move on).
2) Everyone posts uses the 'spoiler' tag to hide actions that your character takes that round (may cause those posting to use if...then statments).
Which one would we like to do?
|
I can do either one... I am usually on these posts checking for replies all day if I'm not doing anything, but I do think it might be a little better for people to use the second option. It would be faster because someone may not be able to post or they can only get online at a certain part of the day and instead, we can just post ahead of time...
I can do either one,but I do agree with William the game will be faster and we wont have to wait on anyone if they cant get online or there is some kind of problem,so yes I think that posting ahead of time will be best.
#2
It would be best to do #1 ,if EVERYONE posted...curse you mars, in our given situation #2 would be best...
Words of wisdom by Dr. Spok
I like #1 becuase it makes every thing simple
Looks like we are going with #2 if no one has any problems. If we find #2 doesn't work we can switch things up.
Things may take a slight switch...my computer started giving me issues today so be patient and I'll try to get back in pace as soon as possible.
To all of you who think this means do not post, you may still post that just means that he will get back to us whenever he can.
May have issues with getting maps online for posting encounters. Would that be a problem with anyone if we did not have visuals to go with posts??
Not with me and I will be using Yoki for now too. For a little bit.

Alright with our current encounter, I casted mount which brings me a light hourse for 2 hours. Is there any problem with me casting a spell on the horse? I know the concentration check if he is moving, but is there any problem with him not being trained with fire flying above him or something or are they okay with it?
I have no idea but I have a question to... I don't think I gain exp for those previous encounters since I didn't post or is this a different story?
About Mars I don't think you recieve any XP because you haven't been posting but I'm not GM. On WIlliam's problem I think that you would have to make a ride check to start of course that would make you an easier target because you can't move too much. You might have to make a concentration check on the horse because you need to focus on the spell on the back of the horse. That is just my outlook on the matter.

First off, to ride successfully you would need to make a ride check DC 20, if that passes then a concentration check would need to be done to see that you can cast while the mount is moving (in this case DC11, 10 plus spell level).

This is just a simple heads up but I will not be posting later in May for at least a week. As most of you know already, my father will be returning from Iraq for a two week break and we will be traveling to Florida the day after school. After the vacation, I may still be busy squeezing as much time with my father as possible... I am sure you will be able to live without me..
I appreciate the heads up William.
But anther dilemma has come up. We originally begin the game post with the acknowledgment of the people playing that we need people to post daily. With the exception of me and 3 others this is not happening. The problem occurs when an encounter takes place with only 50% or less posting causing those of us who post daily to have to wait, sometimes days, before we can continue the storyline (those who let me know ahead of time that they will be gone or those with reasons why they cannot post at the moment do not factor into this). I guess what I am saying is that those of you who cannot post daily need to say something now. Obviously, if you are not posting, you will probably not see this post either. So I am giving the group 24 hrs to post in this thread. Those who do not post here within the 24 hour period will cause the premature end of the game post or they will be replaced by someone who can post daily.
Hope to hear from you soon!!
