Hey Aron (if you're out there) - given that you have this game starting up, do you still want to be considered for my homebrew? I have enough good posts over there to go with, and honestly it's clear you've put a lot of time into that concept, so I didn't want to assume that you still want a spot if taking this game has filled your schedule up too much. Let me know!

It's a bit of a funny thing really. For ages I'd be annoyed at not getting any games and now all of a sudden I'm in 5 :p.

I'll drop out for another others who want to consider and post so on the thread.

Cool, thanks. Glad I asked!


Sorry to be holding up the process folks! Background should be finished soon.

Hey Dzae:
Dzae Shadowalker wrote:

The first question that would need to be resolved is, since Dzae left the circus several years ago did your character:

A. Leave at the same time and we've been traveling together ever since or
B. Leave some time later and either intentionally or not met up with Dzae and has traveled with him since or
C. Leave either quite recently or a while ago but runs into Dzae in Riddleport?

Any of the three would be fine with me. 2nd question: What was your role in the circus? Since Dzae grew up there he did various acts including acrobatics, juggling and knife throwing. Let me know so we can weave our stories together.

Dzae, how long ago did you leave the circus? Reading your background it looks like you were taken in by your gnome parents 110 years ago and you left when they died. Khun-dun is 70 years old, and I'm thinking he left the Darklands for the surface about 30 years ago (just as he reached full adulthood) and was taken in by the circus shortly thereafter. During his time with the circus he served as a blacksmith/weaponsmith for the troupe, and befriended Zarzuket, Neji, Dzae, and maybe a few others. Perhaps Khun-duhn even forged Dzae's daggers for his friend. Khun-duhn stayed with the circus for a while after Dzae left, but departed not long after. He spend several years in a monastery in the Kodar Mountains in northern Varisia, and is now traveling to Riddleport in a Varisian caravan. Does that work for you?

Aren't there sites that will pull up another site in its window so you're not accessing paizo directly?

Took me a second to remember what they were called, but I found this list of proxy sites. I tested one and it allowed me to open paizo, but I'm not sure how it will fare vs. the blocking software.. You can try, at least.

** spoiler omitted **

Yo Khun-duhn:
That fits perfectly. Neji (at the age of 348) and Zarzuket (at the age of 422) died on the same day three hours apart. Dzae stayed barely a week to say goodbye and resolve his affairs with the circus. Before leaving he dispersed most of his parents possessions keeping little for himself. Among what he kept were his father's dice and deck of cards, the purple sling his mother had made him and an earring she gave him as well. He also took with him the perfectly balanced daggers Khun-duhn had forged for him years before. Dzae asked Kuhn-duhn to make him a left handed rapier, which he did. The day Dzae left was exactly five years ago. I can make it ten if that works better. That gives us 20 or 25 years of friendship before parting. Upon arriving in Riddleport you hear of crazy elf, recently arrived who entertains folks by juggling daggers. When you find Dzae, he tells you all about how he plans to win the Tournament. How does that sound?

Dzae:
That works great! Thanks! I think I'll modify Khun-duhn's history just a bit and have him leave the circus before Dzae (say about 10 or so years ago) to go study at a monastery high up in the Kodar Mountains due to the discordant tune that's always in his head becoming too much of a distraction. That's where he will have learned to unlock his psionic potential. But he still would have made the left-handed rapier for his friend as a parting gift. He probably wouldn't have heard of Neji and Zarzuket's passing, and will be very saddened to hear the news once he meets up with Dzae.

Alright, I've got a synopsis of Khun-duhn's background up on his profile. It's still kind of bare-bones and needs to be fleshed out, but I think it's enough right now to convey the gist of where he's been, how he knows Dzae, and how he arrived in Riddleport.


I just revised my background to include Khun-duhn. I believe we are good to go.


For Group 1:
To quote Fable.... And So Our Story Begins
There be the IC Thread. GET TO IT FOLKS!

Group 1 is, for reference:
Daze (Rogue)
Khun-duhn (Psionic Warrior)
Trista (Inquisitor)
Tozur (Magus)
Marcellus Alazario (Fighter)

As far as Group 2 is concerned, everything looks good but Alexander (Aron)'s character needs to have his backstory fleshed out more and whatnot.

Oh and those Proxy sites? Aint workin too great, but thanks anyway MeMori. They get me on the site to view it, but the instant I try to log in / move around they lock up.

Ah well. I can post from my phone if its important :P It will just be a pain in that ass. And we have a pair of breakroom PCs at work that I can at least VIEW the site on, and plan a posting.


Werehare Inquisitive 3/ Seeker 3/ Bard 3

Here's the search results (grain of salt/pound of prevention) You might have to do some filtering until you can find out what they're using, but one of 'em ought to work.


okey ammended backstory, however I need to pick a friend who dragged me along to this event :p


I have to admit to minor irritation ; the reason my description mentions a hood, and my intro post mentions the hood, is that it's not meant to be blatantly obvious that I'm a goblin.

Sovereign Court

Oops. Sorry Tozur, didn't catch that. Well Marcellus does have perception as a class skill at least even if I don't...

I have retconned my last post.

Hey Toz, Like AK, I did not intend to cause a problem. As I said in my post I did note that you were hooded and hiding. I attempted to draw a clear line of attention from turning around due to Marcellus' elbow to noticing Trista's beauty and seeing Toz next to her at the moment the hood slipped open. I would gladly roll perception but to keep things simple I'll just retcon it. I can certainly hold Dzae's suspicion off until later when Toz is truly revealed.

Once you sort that out Alex and everyone in Group 2 is good with their characters i will start you guys :D

The hood slipping off did occur before we went to the Golden Goblin - which I could have specified more clearly. That was my bad.

Thank you for retconning, though. I appreciate it.


Nichelle sounds like the best idea for Alexander to have met on the street and made friends, hope you don't disagree.

Actually would be a interesting roleplaying if they had met and gotten long as friends and perhaps he grows a greater attachment but can't tell her about her feelings?

Just a suggestion, doesn't have to be if you don't feel comfortable with those ideas.


Werehare Inquisitive 3/ Seeker 3/ Bard 3

Sounds fair enough. She's easy enough to get along with.

cool and lol it's Goldina and whats-his-name again only reverse :p


Werehare Inquisitive 3/ Seeker 3/ Bard 3

Oh, this'll be innnnnnnteresting.


I will get Group 2 going at some point today. Assuming I am not runnin around like a chicken with my head cut off >.>


Oh hey, look its the GROUP 2 IC THREAD GO GO GO!


Well just so you know, there is no visible weapons on Edgar.


Werehare Inquisitive 3/ Seeker 3/ Bard 3

Nor Nichelle.


Werehare Inquisitive 3/ Seeker 3/ Bard 3

Were we agreeing on a past history with Tragershen and Nichelle?


I believe so. Did you have any specifics you wanted to see on the level, where or when?


Werehare Inquisitive 3/ Seeker 3/ Bard 3

Heh.. since the game ended, we can't have much of that mentioned. That makes the general concepts "shipwreck", "near Mwangi", and the question of duration and what occurred.


I wish Nichelle knew tengu :(


Werehare Inquisitive 3/ Seeker 3/ Bard 3

Give her a level. :)


We can keep it vague for now, and flush it out more as the adventure progresses if you're okay with that.


Well at least you know halfling.

I'm sure she'll learn it if she gets an interest. You never know?


Sorry for not replying too quickly, but my laptop fan has offically died and without a fan the processor can't cool down to everything is reallly slow atm.


DM Darkhoof wanted me to inform you all that he will be advancing the plot tonight.


I just wanted to point out that my RP comment in my previous IC-post was meant as a jape at my own RP style for that post.

Sovereign Court

And here I thought I was being ridiculed :(.

I was thinking- 'In my defence I was in a rush before I went out to post that...'

I realise just now that it might have come off as an insult or mockery of any of you - I apologise. I was poking fun at myself.


Just gonna let everyone know that due to Real Life being an ass and me being slightly depressed, my posting is going to be erratic, if you didn't notice already >.>

Don't fret the game is not ending but it is going to be a tad slower.

meh.

Have a *hug* buddy.

Liberty's Edge

Male Rat Editor 3/Grammarian 3

Seconded on the *hug*. Not a problem, take your time!


Third on the *hug*.

*hug* combo! Future hugs are now *manhugs* :O


No worries. Take whatever time you need, and we'll all be here. Take care of yourself!


Werehare Inquisitive 3/ Seeker 3/ Bard 3

Nonsense! Three or more hugs is a "dogpile"! :D


Jumping it to add my support. Be well, Stomp!
