I see I must now save Gunny from this dangerous path of Nerull, and show him the power of the Natural world.

Considering I cause the entire ship(or him, or the sails, or whatever) to glow with faerie fire, I think I can do so pretty easily.

Hey I'm the one you need to save here.

Also can we put a planter on board so I can grow a tree. Please its important to finn.

Also captain just in case you were wondering that was a some advice and a vote of support but also a reminder that should some one challenge you to change the "rules" finn won't interfere on either side unless he sees some do something he thinks violates the duel.

Two clarifications I think I should make - first, Kyre will stand by the captain for as long as he holds the post. This reflects my belief that if Kyre and Avion - or Kyre and anyone else, for that matter - ever come to blows, it should be a moment of high drama, not 'I'm not playing with your undead! They stink and have cooties!'

Also, I'm glad we've got some players with a heavy investment of time for this game, but bear in mind that I'm only going to be checking the thread once or twice a day, and might not even post every time. Consequently, there may wind up being some serious retconning on my part. Sorry if it gets confusing.

Understandable.

Finn will support the captian (thane) until some one drags him down for being too weak. Finn will however make sure this is a fair challange by the rules as he sees them. Also he will not challange the captain as he doesn't care to have to take care of everyone himself


F Exotic Elf TBA

*salutes* I be supportin' a' Captain. Don't mean I cain't watch out fer things, though.


Male Half-elf, aquatic Swashbuckler 3

And he's thankful to have your support. I made sure I didn't go overboard on ammo for Annabelle - so it's very pivotal he pulled it out this early.

Believe me, if he knew any better way to stop that, he'd have done it - it's hard to stand 'tween two members of the crew when you don't know them as well as you'd like.


Lizardfolk

Kai is behind the Captain 100% if that wasn't already obvious lol and will protect the other members of the crew he is friendly with if something foul befalls them.

@Devannis: Nicely done with the explosive entry there =D.

@ Avion: We now have the evil overlord of the new world on-board the ship.... or Nerulls replacement xD Well Role-played and enjoyable.

And if it sounds like i'm mad, i'm not~ I'm just roleplaying as best I can =D, Kai just has different views and can be a bit overprotective.

Male Human Cleric lvl 3

Nice that you like it Kai :)

Please guys, just tell me if I go overboard. I don´t really like to hoard so much attention... or more like wrong word, since I would mean to cause fight or ruckus, even though this is Sandbox game or I am only one Evil Character. Trying to make some more enjoyable game and finding a way to balance... although somehow I have a image as "Kai" said of a new Lord of Evil/Darkness, waking up the Nerull :P

Trying it to keep nice for everyone and thinking of my actions so far. Avion will have his own goals, but trying of course get some people his side :P Not nice if 1+12 vs rest of ship ahah :D


F Exotic Elf TBA

*Raises hand*

While t'is nice an' all with yer showin' whut's happenin' in th' characters head. I dun't think we quite need that level o' exposition. I tend t' go with 'Actions speak louder than thoughts'....*>_>* Um, as me jumpin' an' cavortin' about tend t' highlight there...*cough*.

So's! I think yer doin' all right, though ye do come across more as a ravin' Evil guy an' not a calm, manipulative Evil guy.

Remember, every one knew Heath Ledger's Joker were the baddie but not every one kind'a realized that Hugo Weaving's 'V' were kind'a just as bad as the reign he were tyin' t' put down.

O' course, then there's a fav o' mine....just what be Cap'n Jack's stance on where he be standin' in'a world? (^_~)


male Half Giant by way of a firbolg and a human bar 1 fighter 1

It doesn't bother me I just want to try to stay netural right now the way finn is both personality and build wise I don't want things to get too heated cause some one would die :( so he will try to keep the peace if not the status quo. He isn't really loyal to any side right now other than his own and he's not even sure what that is. And no offense Avion I don't want to slip to the CE side of things. The only reason I didn't play evil this time was I didn't want to play the le master wizard again so soon.

Okay for the ash seeds they are as far as I as the player knows just the best ash seeds our local druid had and what he thought of them. But that is the story he told finn when he gave them to him. So if they are "special that's up to will. Finns a little crazy and overly zealous with his beliefs so he will guard those seeds well being with his life and everyone on the ships as well.


Male Human Cleric lvl 3

Well Finn, I will pay visit and convince you to be Evil :D I understand what you meant plus not wanting to be CE or able to play LE wizard.

Idea for me is just to ensure, that there is some kind of fighter to boost my back. Not necessarily to be stupid or chaotic. I am thinking more like "Master from shadows controlling the puppet with finest strings".

This is completely up to you and thinking of some nice color to story. Not forcing to attack etc, but time to time help me in some situations

No its not that I couldn't play the le wiz its that I just finished one up me and my crew just finished our game that has like 10 years of my life I need a break from super evil wizards lol

Also finn is not stupid rash but not stupid his int is his third highest stat. I learned dms won't let me dump int I'm to smart and I can't dumb myself do to a normal person d&d wise let alone a sub average int.

As for being evil he may not flip over but he would work for and with you as long as you don't break his rules.


Male Human Cleric lvl 3

Yes, was thinking something like that.

Just pushing and controlling here and there can have bigger success than direct controlling :P. Playing along the rules is never bad:

Rules exists to be obeyed, I just bend them to my purposes :P


male Half Giant by way of a firbolg and a human bar 1 fighter 1

Remember Zedd says bring fear of you and your enforcement of the laws into play. When someone crosses you and the law allows take them break their mind and give them away as a present.

DM Will:
If its okay with you will I think I may go for druid or cleric once I level up =). I can work my stat up's to keep up with normal progression and still have an all around good character, but I thought i'd run it by you first of course.

Also do you allow a cleric without a deity? or would this world not allow that? I just don't want to mess up the flow of the game ^^;

The last thing I wanted to run by you was this Reducing Level Adjustments Unearthed Arcana. Just thought I'd see if you would be cool with me paying off my level adjustment when i'm around lvl 6 (I think ^^;) I need to read more on it but just wanted to pass it by you just in case.

** spoiler omitted **

Any character choices you make will NOT hinder me in the slightest, assuming we are talking about SRD classes and not something new. So cleric/druid, no trouble at all.

I do allow clerics to follow "ideals" instead of one particular deity. I know I read rules on this somewhere but can't seem to find it in the SRD, but in my game I do run it where level 1-3 spells are cast on faith alone, then 4-7 prayers are usually answered by divine powers related to what/who you worship, and 8-9 are usually answered by the god/goddess/greater power herself.

I use the reducing ECL rules. No problem.
I have done that for multiple PCs so I'm familiar with it. As an ECL 2 you can buy it off at Character levels 6 then 9. Dropping your ECL at 6, means at char level 10 (class level 9 + 1ECL=10) you can buy off the 2nd ECL.


Lizardfolk

Excellent, i'll have to figure out the spell-casting in this world but other then that i'll get to work hammering out exactly which path i'll take.

Thanks =)


Male River Spirit Druid 3

1. I would like to see a map of the ship. Can it be provided?

2. Is it okay with you Will, if I swap the 13 in Str with the 8 in Int. I have been playing Olek a lot smarter than what he is in the numbers, and I like the way he is.

I can't see it :(

Sorry about that, this will fix it =D

With the map revealed, the Cap'n's quarters are room 4 - things are moved around to make it much more homely and generally better organized.

I always thought you slept in room 3 =D but 4 works just as well.

Since its posted now as well, Kai'itza is known to sleep in the hold (Area 13) in the far back room. He's made sure that the supplies remain unspoiled as he's made it into a sort of 'Den' for the remaining lizardfolk of his tribe and other lizardfolk stragglers willing to join them. (So long as the DM doesn't mind that fluff) He doesn't lay claim to any of the room 10's that are normally for 'paying customers' or officers. When sleeping there he curl's up alongside his tribesmen for the shared warmth it brings or he stoically guards the door to their den with his shield strapped onto his arm and his javelins within reach. Animal hides are used for bedding and there are some of the tribes remaining paraphernalia scattered or hung about the room.

If he is especially restless he sleeps beneath the stairs near the Captain's quarters. With his gear within reach while draped in his cloak to keep him warm.

If this disrupts anybody elses setup i'll work with you to make it work out for both of us ^^d

I tend to frown on modifications after the game has started, but if you feel you really want to I will let it fly this time.

Oh Hawt, I was going to photoshop up The Brotherhood later with your custom mods, equipment, and rooms etc, this will help tons. Nice find.


Lizardfolk

Lmao Glad to help, even if it was sorta an accident ^^; I was afraid I might have been stomping on you. I look forward to your custom mods =D

Google chrome + image search with google is awesome~

I have all the books most of them on PDF so if I can't find the pic I can cut it out of a PDF and send it to you >.>; if you need anything give me a heads up. I have 35 gigs of PDF's.

Just wondering~ Did my diplomacy check while passing out grog do anything? or was it to big a task for a single check?

I thought i'd post it here instead of wasting a post in the main thread

Nah it's ok, by customize I just want to label where each NPC/PC is staying in case a large chunk of burning rock happens to crash down through the hull. This way I can know which NPC is dead on impact and which are washed out to sea.

I was thinking of a custom exterior section though for water born races & creatures, kinda like an under ship entrance, or maybe custom handholds to "ride" the ship from underneath.

DM stuff. /thumbs up!

Still catching up on checks, I'll get to it in a second though. But always feel free to do just this. (ask in OOC if I missed a check, sometimes I do.)


male Half Giant by way of a firbolg and a human bar 1 fighter 1

Okay sorry to the druids in the party but as a player I couldn't help peeking when I saw the "seeds". So you guys like my little flavor plot??

Maybe Will will make it be true. It would be an awesome side quests. I can see the title now. Just like in a video game lol.

Character

Finn

Quest Involved In

Main, Seeds of Yiggdrasill


Male River Spirit Druid 3

Hey Will, remember to customize one of the rooms of the ship into a "garden" cabin, when you do your map modifications.

Finn I like it too. You will be invited into the garden cabin after the meeting where Olek will conduct some research with his botany skill to determine if they are really seeds of Yggdrasil. Can't wait to see what the result will be. My Proffesion (botanist) is not bad.


Female Halfling Druid 3

Nothing like making druids a real power in the world! Children of the Earth and Sea Unite!

XD


Lizardfolk

@ DM: I'm also looking forward to the custom ship map as well, it'll be cool going against the norm, and making our Caravel a one of a kind B-A-S! xD

@ Everyone: I'm curious of the nature of the meeting we are all having with our dear ragged captain~

***Deleted due to metagamish content... bad lizard....***

It is kinda funny that my big lizardmen is busy trying to bolster other crew members to not give up just yet, never thought i'd be filling that role but its fun. Besides that he's also absorbing all the knowledge that he can while he can.


male Half Giant by way of a firbolg and a human bar 1 fighter 1

Hey if there's killing to be done finn wants in on it. And hey what can I say I came up with good fluff for finn. I really need to write out his backstory. But I wasn't really world sure so I didn't wanna jump to conclusions and have will smack me.


Lizardfolk

Trust me Finn there is going to be PLENTY of battle and skill checks in the near future i'm sure! Besides our DM destroyed a sun! Rain down fire and doom so he is definitely capable of many dastardly things, of which we can only imagine in our most vivid nightmares! ;)

Well i'm off to bed see ya all in a few~

Liberty's Edge

The Reason why Finn has been ejected.

Finn: I made a copy of everyone's character sheet on 9/21 and cross referenced it and there was no change. You did not have those herbs listed, and by saying you crossed it off you are blatantly lying to me. I find this very disrespectful, and I will not tolerate this at my game.

It's cheating, and now I have to retcon Suny's actions based on your deceit in this small action. It's not cool man.

I felt I gave you enough of a chance, a few warnings, and one threat of ejection via email, before the game even started. At this time you have steeped over my limits by cheating, and then lying, so you are ejected from this PBP.

All: I'd like to point this out this is not the first warning I have given him, and I didn't just make a snap decision, there was an email thread spanning 60+ emails during character creation where I had a certain feeling his play style might be conflicting with this game, though I did allow him to go forward and gave him a shot.

At this time however I made the call that it would not work out going forward, and he will be removed from play later in the game when I find a plausible reason to do so. For now he is a NPC.


F Exotic Elf TBA

Oh...

There is not much if anything I can/could add after reading that post.

I am sorry to see any player 'go', though usually it is Real Life events conspiring to take a person away from a game.

I do wish the player of Finn well for their future, and I also understand that it is DM Willpower who is doing the harder yards of running this event, hence we have all been invited into their space.

I would also like to add, that should I stuff anything up it is as unintentional as my rather ditsy self. *bows*

Much cheers to every one.


Lizardfolk

Understood Willpower, i'm sorry to see anyone go, but I have also dealt with peoples characters changing when I had a RL gaming group I DMed for, for many years. It's not fun when each session they make a change to their character, I had to collect character sheets every time they left to avoid having to make them make a new one since they so blatantly cheated.

Changing is OK with permission, adding items that affect plot, then getting called out on it, and then lying about it, is unacceptable. That's where 99% of my beef lies. :(

DM Event Notice:

OOC: I have plans to advance the plot tomorrow, which would fit nicely after the captains meeting and then the following day. There may be a few people running their own plots and that is up to them, but my stuff is being typed up and printed Saturday.


male Half Giant by way of a firbolg and a human bar 1 fighter 1

Okay so I just got off work and saw this.
I did have those on my sheet. Remember I told you that my final update to my character sheet wouldn't be made until after the game started because of work. Why would I lie about that all they do is give the grog a more potent flavor.

Then you shouldn't have said "you crossed them off your sheet" if they were never there.

Sorry my decision stands.

Ah damn, sorry all guys for big delay. No damn internet for almost whole week... business trip, no wlan and... best of all, coming back now :S Got also problem with my provider so had to change it huoh. Back to business again though but seems like I have a lot to catch

Hey Avion Merdiota. I offered t' put one or two of yer freaky-deaks in'a box...just never seemed to be enough time. *shrug*

Ah well, cain't say I be sad at all t' see 'em go....

Cheers!


male Half Giant by way of a firbolg and a human bar 1 fighter 1

Yeah but I didn't have them anymore. So shouldn't I have removed them from my sheet Will?? Wow I just got kicked from a bpb for promt record keeping.
