Excellent, looking forward to playing!


In case it was missed, Shakhan should be updated and rearing to go

Yup, got it. He looks great now!


Barrdyn, I looked over Pierre, and the only issue I can see is that his CMB should be -1 and his CMD should be 11. (perhaps his -1 STR penalty was overlooked?)

Everything else about his sheet looks terrific.

Well, guys, I know there are still a couple of (very) small loose ends to wrap up, but I'm jonesin' to start. Look for the first IC post in a little while! :)


And we're live!

Let's hit the ground running! Have fun...

Bah, I think I calculated his CMB/CMD before dropping the Strength, that's what went wrong. I will update it tonight.


You guys are all doing some great role-playing on the game thread!

Sorry I couldn't update last night, but something important and unexpected came up and killed my evening. I'll update tonight for sure.


We aim to please ;)

I am pleased, indeed. Good players tend to do that. :)


Everyone, I made a couple of updates to the campaign information in my alias: Added some description for Zellara under 'NPCs' and updated the Korvosa map with the location of the Old Fishery.


Something that might be worthwhile: Pathfinder PbP GooglePage Template

Navior is GMing a serpent skull pbp that I've just joined, and he uses the template to keep track of character details (though the actual pbp-ing still happens on the Paizo forums). It looks good and is really easy to use and edit. Might make it easier to keep track of combat-maps, area maps, loot, NPCs, etc :)


Have we lost our DM?

Hmm, well I think Friday was the last day of the messageboard technical problems, and I know a lot of people don't post over the weekend since they are posting from work. So I'll wait til Monday before we start freaking out. :P


We love you Mauvais! Come back! :D


Human Crossbow Weapon Master 4 / Sniper Rogue 2 / Hunter 2

It seems the DM has jumped ship. The ship wasn't even sinking. He just jumped a lifeboat and rowed away, the party going full blast. Sigh. Se la vie.


Anyone fancy picking up the helm, either until Mauvais returns or until we're done?


Anybody have a clue what happened? I'd hate to hear something bad happened to Mauvais that caused this absence :(


Male Human Husband/1(53 years), Father/2, Grandfather/2

Give Mauvais till next Tuesday, August 30th to show up. That would be the two week mark. If he does not post by then, I will volunteer to run this PbP if you will have me.

Couple of things.

I am an experienced table top DM, however I have never done a PbP, although I ran several PBeM through Yahoo groups, so for a while things might be a bit rocky as I get the handle on this.

Also, it would take a week for me to sort out who is what and where you are and to modify (ie. simplify somewhat) the Chapters for CotCT so it is setup for a PbP (PBeM), and my wife and I are "away" for the summer till school starts the Tuesday after Labor Day (6 September) and she gets right annoyed with me if I spend too much time online during vacation.

We certainly appreciate it Papa :) (don't mind my vicious scowl, I always look like that ;P)

Female Depemds on the game system (human in the real world)

Good day, all.

I have offered to DM this game for y'all, and PapaDRB is happy with that.

Who would like to continue?

I'll set 1 September as the (re)start date (time to reread the AP!).

Are you comfortable with a minimum of daily posting? Does anyone have work or life patterns which would make this difficult?

Please let me know if you need to be away for more than a couple of days, the rest of us will do our best to keep you safe...

I intend to pick up from where the game ground to a halt if that's all right with you.

Liberty's Edge

I'm fine with daily posting with the exception of the weekends. I might be able to check it once during the weekend, but not everyday. :)

Liberty's Edge

Female Depemds on the game system (human in the real world)

Understood... daily Mon-Fri then, and do what you can at weekends.

I work from home at the moment. But remember I'm in the UK, so responses will not always be immediate!


Several of us are running with near GMT time zones (if I remember correctly). I at least post from South Africa (GMT+2).


Male Human Wizard (Illusionist) 2 / Cleric2

I can usually post everyday, but some times not till evening, US Eastern Time Zone.


I see not every player is reporting in - I've told a buddy of mine that works too hard on exams and things to join a pbp, and he's finally given slack. So if there's opportunity, please consider him as a candidate to join. I'll ask him to make a post here shortly :)


Hey Guys and Girls!

As Shak said, I'd like to join your campaign. Obviously this will only be if you have a space open. I'm quite keen if it is at all possible, so I will be watching this space.

I am GMT + 2.

Oh and I love puppies and rainbows, if that helps :D

Female Depemds on the game system (human in the real world)

xiN, I'd be happy to have you. Please read the Curse of the Crimson Throne Player's Guide which is available as a free PDF download here, and create yourself a character of 1st level.


Male Dwarf

Curious if you guys are full, if so no worries.

Liberty's Edge

Female Depemds on the game system (human in the real world)

Do you want to play?

Rest of you: I've sent in a request for a thread name change for both this and the IC thread...

Then we ought to be just about ready for a restart!!!!


Still busy with the character but I just wanted to put him down for now.

I just copied it straight from the xls sheet. Should be done in a short while with equipment.


Thread name change? oh noes - my links wont work no'more!


Male Daytona 500 DM / 12

Instead of changing the names of these thread titles (Not sure you can do that anyway) why not just start a new game thread, and we'll all move there?


male dwarf 2 weapon Fighter 1

yes I would like to play, but only if there is room. I have Zadarra the Amazing, a halfling sorcerer of infinite jest and wisdom, without the wisdom.

Liberty's Edge

Female Depemds on the game system (human in the real world)

A name change will take about a week to effect (says the webmaster) but it is only a cosmetic change, links will not be affected.

The reason I wanted to go with a name change is that the introduction/set-up has already been done IC, so it makes more sense to carry on... and wandering off elsewhere always runs the risk of losing folk who don't realise you've moved!

Mudin Ironhand, come on in we'll find a corner for your halfling. But he'd better behave...


Male halfling Bard

I always behave.....


Human Crossbow Weapon Master 4 / Sniper Rogue 2 / Hunter 2

So we have three new players?

I hope that fishery is big enough for us all.


I am still around to play Pierre.


Male halfling Bard

in case it was missed Zadarra=Mundin. Didn't know if you meant 3 counting me twice.


Human Crossbow Weapon Master 4 / Sniper Rogue 2 / Hunter 2

I guess it is two... lol.


I'm ready, bring on the actions! Shakhan is rearing to make Lamm pay!


Male Human Rogue (1)

So...we’re not dead then? I stopped checking in regularly as of last week but can continue posting as Vic Marduk if we have a new DM and enough players.


We're waiting for our new GM to start the ball rolling

Liberty's Edge

Female Depemds on the game system (human in the real world)

I've not forgotten y'all!

One more read-through of the game thread with the 1st adventure open in another window & I shall be ready.

Liberty's Edge

Female Depemds on the game system (human in the real world)

And we're off!

But it is now 7pm in England and dearly beloved wants to ply me with alcohol.

Newcomers - would you like to assume that you have been there all along, pop up an introductory post of what you look like and what you care to reveal to the others, and just join in as we begin to assault the fishery?

I acknowledge it's a bit of a bodge and apologise now to everyone for it - not my DM style at all - but given the OOC circumstances it's probably better to get things rolling and you involved. However, if you are not happy with that, I'll write you in properly but it may take a while.

More in the/my morning!


Megan, you still up for the WFRP game?

Yes, are you ready to start?


Atherton Dram, sullenly reporting for duty!

If you still have space, I would very much enjoy playing. The group for which this character was created for did not get that far, and I'm good at separating character and player knowledge when necessary.

*crosses fingers*


Male Impoverished Student 2/Amateur Chef 3

I (Grimmeh/Atherton), have read over the game thread, and I'm wondering how you want me to introduce myself. Should we just assume that Zellara sent me as well?

Liberty's Edge

Female Depemds on the game system (human in the real world)

What, more?

Pop over to the IC thread and see what's going on.

Yes, you got a similar introduction from Zellara as the main party did, but it took the both of you rather longer to arrive at the old fishery (perhaps you had other matters to attend to before you went looking for the place) and when you get there the front door has been kicked in and there's a woman trying to kick a side door open (you may arrive just in time to see her prat-fall).

Pitch on in, and let the others know what you look like on first interaction - you can introduce yourselves to them IC.

AND THAT'S IT! NO MORE... START A THREAD AND ASK ME TO RUN ANOTHER GAME IF THERE'S ANYONE ELSE OUT THERE WHO WANTS TO PLAY UNDER ME


Just a suggestion to current players:

I use an RSS reader (FeedReader 3.14) to read both this and the game thread. I set it to update within 3 minutes of a post happening. It makes waiting less tedious since I dont have to go to the threads and refresh the whole time, and it also means I can reply faster.

The game thread's RSS url is:
