With several enemies and an open battlefield everything should be fine, I'm just concerned with tight quarters shutting someone down. I might have to set aside chunks of gold to aquire potions (or a wand) of Fly for the mobile members.

My INT went up from what I had premade with point buy. Anyone have any suggestion on a bonus language? Yuma speaks Taldane and Shoanti now.

It looks like we're pretty heavily invested in battlefield control as a party. I'm a conjurer with the teleportation school ability from the APG, so terrain won't matter much to me. It's very short range to start, 5 feet, but by the time it really starts to matter I won't have much issue getting around the battlefield.


Male Human (Taldan) Oracle/1

Yep. We just need to give the Rogue a way to meander through the terrain unfettered. I know there's a spell for it.


I think this is the one.
Cute...it's a druid spell too.

10/level and there is a mass version as a level 3 spell. I may not bother with nimble moves. A wand of that will last quite a long time, even a couple of scrolls or potions should get through the better part of a dungeon; a minor investment for mid levels and up.


Female Human(Taldan) Druid 1

Well I'll be sure to take it by first level...though I think druids can change their spells daily.


Male Human (Taldan) Oracle/1

Indeed they can.


They can. Though it won't be that important to ignore difficult terrian (at least the terrian Yuma creates) until he picks up groundbreaker at level 6, at which point the mass version might be a better investment, as he'll likely rage and use the tactic in most fights. And because of it he'll gladly pay for a few scrolls of it to negate the burden on a party member.

They can. Divine prepared casters have access to their full spell list.


Male Human (Taldan) Oracle/1

This is going to be a beast of a party.


Female Human(Taldan) Druid 1

I meant by 6th level...oops...


Lokti shouldn't have any trouble with difficult terrain, since he'll be fighting at range or from a vantage point (hopefully there'll be plenty of options for him to use his climb speed).

Also, in case you're wondering why I haven't been posting much, it's because I just haven't had much else to contribute yet. I've been lurking though!

I'll be on sporadically this weekend, but should be back in full swing on Monday through Friday 9-4pm EST. I'll probably do the majority of my posts then.


M Half-Orc Conjurer (teleportation focus subschool)-1

Sundays are a little busy for me. I usually have lunch with the family, then my regular game in the evening. I'll sneak in when I can during the afternoon, and usually get home around 10:30 eastern on Sunday nights.


I'll tell you what I can do. I'll start the thread today since everyone has their characters pretty much set and then you jump in when you can. I'll be around until about 3:30 CST when I need to start getting ready for my game. It will be basic rp around town for now, no combat or anything where I really need to get involved. People from out of town can describe how they got in town and so on. I'll have the IC thread up in about an hour just need to take care of a few things.

That's fine. It's not a huge issue for me, just I'll be kinda quiet on Sundays, but I can usually get on in the AM and after I get home no problem.


Male Human (Taldane) Rogue (swashbuckler/scout)

Just to give you guys a heads up, Im about to go to wedding and I will be gone for most of the day. So my post on the IC will be pretty late today (eastern time).


That's fine I'm adopting a post when you can kind of stance on the weekends because I know as gamers that's when we're usually our busiest with games and such. I am starting this a day a head of schedule so if you can't post today don't feel bad. You'll find that when I DM I have a very go with the flow type of attitude.

The IC thread can be found here .

Feel free to continue posting in this thread as you need to, this will be used for any planning that needs to be done. Please also post here when your suspect an interruption in your posting habits.


M Half-Orc Conjurer (teleportation focus subschool)-1

I just read the intro, I'm thinking Razz got the summons and delivered Andern's and we've set out together for town and we pick it up there. That going to work for Razz?


Hey guys just popping in to say I'm going to be out for the rest of the day. Go ahead and post in the IC thread as you guys see fit and I'll check in tomorrow after church...okay maybe before...lol.


Male Half Elf Inquisitor(Preacher), level 3

Okay see ya boss man.


M Half-Orc Conjurer (teleportation focus subschool)-1

I realized I didn't have traits for Andern, so I took Reactionary (+2 Initiative) and Dangerously Curious (UMD is a class skill) and dropped appraise for UMD.

As long as it's good with the DM, it's good with me. I need to go direct a gig in a bit but I should have my first IC posts this evening.


M Half-Orc Conjurer (teleportation focus subschool)-1

One more quick thing, I dropped expeditious retreat for summon monster I.


Male Human (Taldane) Rogue (swashbuckler/scout)

Cool, screw running when we can send a dire rat at the enemy hehe. But seriously good switch, the summon monster has a few more uses then expeditious retreat.


Excellent start guys.

I posted this in the IC thread but figured I could put it here as well. For those of you who are knew to pbp on this site to roll dice you can use the [ dice] [ /dice] tags but with out the spaces to roll. Also if I ask for skill checks(like I just did), just like table top, you can only see the information in the spoiler if you made your check. Your on your honor not to read all the spoilers.

Feel free to continue to rp as you feel fit and I'll move it along as things seem to rap up.


I think elsewhere I mistyped. I'll be online until 3 PM CST today, and in the evening on Mon and Tues until 10ish. If there is combat or something that needs my attention for the game to move on while my computer is getting repaired or replaced on my days off of work (which I will inform everyone of beforehand), is there someone who would feel comfortable playing my character for me, just to keep things steady?


I could take him over if you no one else is willing to do it. I think I'm also going to try to teach my self how to use google docs so I can make the maps my self.

I hope Finik and Razz don't mind the sisters attitude towards them...I just think it will be a fun dynamic between the three of them.


My RotRL game is my first time really using PbP and taught myself to use Google Docs to make maps quicker than expected after it was requested that we use maps. I'm not overly adept with computers and didn't want to learn overly complicated mapping programs, but it only took a little while to get used to setting up the spreadsheets. I was rather comfortable with it after my second one. I was going to learn to insert images for peoples characters, but in the end decided it was easier just to color code and be able to type in status descripters clearly rather than look pretty.


Male Human (Taldan) Oracle/1

Totally dig the attitude. My original gaming group was people from my improv team and the best dynamic has always been between characters that were moderately belligerent to each other - for acting and in RP. Of course I expect that there will be times that they hate each other even more, and then times when they come to respect each other.

Also, one of the most in-depth campaigns I've run(or been involved in period) followed two brothers, and later their illegitimate half-elf half sister. We have a pretty well filled out OP page for it too... I voiced over 200 npcs over the course of a year, and each has at least a sentence about him/her, if not a lot more.

Also, with the barb, pop rage, leverage flanking with wolf/inquisitor/rogue/druid? Lots of combat options.


Male Half Elf Inquisitor(Preacher), level 3

Leverage flanking?

As in, make sure to be flanking with one of them, since there are so many peeps to flank with.


Male Half Elf Inquisitor(Preacher), level 3

Oh okay not really up on a lot of the language.


Male Human (Taldan) Oracle/1

I don't know if that's really the language, could just be me.


I'll be heading home soon and won't have a chance to really post anything again until tomorrow night around 5 PM CST. Just letting everyone know.


Sorry I was gone for most of the day guys but I finally posted. Feel free to rp the melding of the group a little more and then we will get the mission started tomorrow.

I know its a little soon but anyone got any initial impressions?


Male Half Elf Inquisitor(Preacher), level 3

Well I was reading up on Gorum and having Fisnis dis-trust people will fit along with how people who worship Gorum will work. Seem unless your a warrior worshipers of Gorum do not see you as much so how I am going to play Fisnis. Warriors he will seem more open to but not by much. So we are having a druid npc why again? I was trying to figure out why. If it is for story stuff just say DM stuff.


I felt like having an NPC, its not really story related.


Male Half Elf Inquisitor(Preacher), level 3

Oh.

Scarab Sages

@Fisnis: About my last post in the IC. I was going with what I meant to be a less limited narrator, so the descriptions which weren't in Razz's speech or thought bubbles didn't need to be tied directly to his knowledge as long as it was collective in my mind. BUT looking back on my other posts I see that I've conveyed a more limited narrative so to be consistent I adjusted the description of your character to something more long-winded, but in line with character knowledge.

Anyway, if you have future concern about my roleplaying, or anyone in the party's, could you post them here instead? As it is if you miss the editing window we're just going to have a player-to-player criticism plopped in the middle of the story.


Male Half Elf Inquisitor(Preacher), level 3

Alright.


Male Human (Taldan) Oracle/1

Thanks. Convention noted.


Male Human (Taldan) Oracle/1

Anyway your move if you know what you want Fisnis to do next.


Male Human (Taldane) Rogue (swashbuckler/scout)

Don't worry Finik just made the move hehe


There you go guys I've posted the mission description. I'll be in and out through out the day to respond to anything I need to. I have class from 6:30 until 9:30ish tonight and hope to be home by 10:30 to get up the final posts for the day.


Male Human (Taldane) Rogue (swashbuckler/scout)

Razz or Math:
I can't access my email at the moment but did that email that math sent Razz and me did it give a time frame of the illness. And if so what was it?


Male Human (Taldan) Oracle/1

Wasn't too clear. I just assumed a couple of weeks or so.


It depends on the person actually but yeah a few days to a few weeks is standard. The elderly and childeren, as normal, are killed by it more quickly than someone who is in the prime of their life. I might allow some knowledge checks to get more information IC.

Thx guys


thanks for making this entertaining guys...and Finik she's nothing special but good enough for a drunk Razz...lol


Male Human (Taldane) Rogue (swashbuckler/scout)

Copy that math, man Fin just gets luckier and luckier.


hehehe this is fun.

on a more serious note I found out tonight that my cousin was murdered. The funeral is Thursday and I'm not sure if I can go or not yet but I'll find out tomorrow. If I do go I'll be with out internet on Thursday(flight leaves at 6 AM) until Friday night(flight gets back at 10PM). I'll let you guys know for sure tomorrow.
