KingGM's Curse of the Crimson Throne OOC Thread


Play-by-Post Discussion


May I Welcome You All With Formal Greetings!

This is the start up thread for those playing in the Curse of the Crimson Throne Play by Post

When creating you character, roll your stats with either (4d6, drop lowest) or (2d6, add 6) with a minimum of eight for any stat. Also add 1d2 to one stat of your choice. Races can come from other places rather than the Core Rulebook with prior approval. The Core Rulebook can be found here. Choose two traits when creating your character. One of these traits must come from the Campaign Section in the Cure of the Crimson Throne’s Player's Guide. It can be found here.

Please include a nice background story to help not only your GM, but your fellow PCs by explaining who you are and what makes you “you.” This adventure begins in the land of Korvosa, so I would expect for whatever you call "home" to be in this region. Make sure your character sheet is organized for easy reading.

After your character is created, post on here and I will check for any possible errors. We will begin play this month hopefully. The latest should be Independence Weekend.


Male Half-Elf Inquisitor 1

I'm Ready. I will be your scout. Not your thief.

1d2 ⇒ 2 Con


I think I am really going to like this campaign and I haven't even looked at my future saviors yet.

Calist, your character will fit perfectly into this adventure and I love your background story. I did notice one easy to fix problem though. Your fortitude should actually be three instead of two. It looks like you didn't update when you rolled that 1d2 for constitution. Everthing else; however, is perfect.


Male Half-Orc Ranger 1

I am Makoa Skullcrusher. Show me your enemies.


I guess I will help this group as well if you need another hand. I'll probably wait on the character till I see what is needed most. Unless of course KingGM has some suggestions?!?


Male Tiefling Rogue/2

"Whoa how the heck did I get here!!!"

Same here I will probably play a rogue unless you have any suggestions.


Wow, this adventure is very depressing. Makoa, I enjoy your chracter's story. Very good explanation. You do need to fix something on your character though. Scale Mail's stats are (+5 AC, +3 Max Dex, -4 Armor Check, and a speed of only 20ft for medium creatures.) Also, did you already add the extra 1d2 to one of your stats?


Male Half-Elf Inquisitor 1

Good Catch. If you don't mind I changed my Int. to 11 and my Cha. to 17.

Anyways, Welcome TheGuy and James!

I would love to have you two play. Your welcome to play anything within the Core Rulebook or Advanced Player's Guide but I must mention that we still have no rogue, arcance spellcaster, or divine spellcaster.

That is fine, just don't do it when we begin play. Also, make sure you update your languages and skills.

As you wish


I am working on my character and should have it ready to post in the next day or two. I will choose a summoner from the Advanced player's guide if that is ok. Should take care of the arcane spell caster and my thought is to possibly multiclass as an inquisitor if that is ok as well. Kind of taking care of the divine spellcaster as well. Not much on multiclassing personally, but just trying to fill in the gaps. I believe that 'James' plans on picking up the rogue.


You're welcome to play either of those two classes, just if you multiclass, make sure you know which one is your favored class. I am hoping to get at least one more player but if we don't it will be fine.


Male Half-Orc Ranger 1

Thanks for the note King. I fixed that little glitch and am awaiting the adventure.


Calist Vasen, I've noticed the giant change in your character and everything looks good except as a half-elf, you get one additional feat. This feat; however, must be a skill focus but if you don't want it, that's fine.


Male Tiefling Rogue/2

"Whoa, Why does this keep happening!!!"

"Working on my charactor I should be done in a couple days I still need to put everything in the computer, create a background story and choose my traits."


That's fine. I am actually waiting for a package to arrive in the next couple days so actually that's perfect. The four people we have should be more than enough now since Calist Vasen is now a divine spellcaster.


Male Elf Summoner 1

I am ready and my little 'dog' too!!!


Eidolon Biped 1

GRRRRRR!!!


Male Half-Elf Rogue/1

Let's go troopers!

It's Time to kill Lamm!


KingGM takes off his glasses and wipes them with his glasses, "Good Lord! You call that a dog? Here!" KingGM hands his glasses to Seldlon, "You need these way more than I do."

Anyways, your characters look great. However, some changes need to be made. Narciso, why did you take a feat in simple weapons when you are already proficient with them? Instead you can put a skill focus on whatever you please. Plus, I do not see your equipment anywhere like your weapons, etc.

Seldlon, you and your so called "dog" look good to me. "However, please make sure you keep that thing away from me... whatever it is....

It appears that all of our characters are here. I have to make the last couple modifications but we should begin in the next couple days or sooner.


Male Half-Elf Rogue/1

I fixed him he should be better now. I put simple weapons under feats because it is a feat I didn't chose it as my feat that I get for first level I chose two-weapon fighting. Sorry for any confusion

and yes I already added my two to DEX.

No, as a half elf you get the ability called Adaptability. This gives you the feat Skill Focus as a bonus at level one. The information explaining Skill Focus can be found here.


Randomly Calist Vasen gets punched in the face! As he is falling, a tooth hits the ground as the great, FART ON YOUR MOM, appears.

IM READY FOR WARRRRRRRR!!

Yeah... You did not only not hurt Calist Vasen, but you are not even apart of this post... I already have my saviors...


Male Half-Orc Ranger 1

Dude, you are in another one of my posts. Go away. Stop posting randomly in these things.


Male Half-Elf Rogue/1

If you didnt see When I altered my character I put my skill focus back in feats I think? and I chose stealth


Male Human Cleric 2

Looks like I need to pay attention to the OOC threads also. Did I miss role call on this one or can you take another player?


Male Half-Elf Rogue/1

I don't think KingGM should have a problum with that we've been waiting for awhile now for him to post back and we haven't started yet.

you should be able to just waiting for kingGM to respond.


Of course I'll take another player! Welcome Koloran, you are more than welcome to join this adventure. Go ahead and make your character following the rules in the post above and I'll check it when it is finished.


Male Elf Summoner 1

So Koloran...when can expect to see your entry into 'The Curse of the Crimson Throne'??

I'm ready to get Lamm!!!


Since others trying out the Advanced classes I thought I'd try an Alchemist. Please check the character over well because I couldn't find a good character sheet so I modified the spreadsheet I used for my clerics and some of the scores might be off. A couple of questions...can I use some equipment from the Adventurers Armory? Specifically the Portable Alchemy lab and Travelling Spellbook. I'm still working on the background, but i'll have it by tomorrow night at least.


The Adventure's Armory is acceptable and anything inside it.


Alright check it out and let me know what is missing.


Sorry for the late notice, but we are going to be out of town until Sunday night. KingGM can just autopilot me if you all want to start earlier than that.


Male Elf Summoner 1

Gotcha!!!

How's it going King???


I'll be out next week Wednesday thru Friday the 14th, 15th and 16th also. Again just autopilot me if needed.


I've been a little busy but most of my modifications are complete. Your character looks great and I don't see any errors so far. I would like everything to be a nice start so I will begin the adventure on the 17th. I don't want to autopilot your character just yet because I'm not sure how will react to certain situations. Sorry guys for the delay.


Greetings Everyone!

As promised, though to me very late, the post is online! The link can be found here.
