Game Master Mowque

A bounty hunter travels the Shadow Plane for profit



For discussion.


Elf

dotting for now. Will get a guy made soon-ish, At the very worst Monday-Tuesday some time.


Since you were so generous, 25 point buy is fine for your stats. Use them well! Any other questions?


Also, do you want to create a Discussion thread in your game so I can ask any questions?


Is Blank the character you hope to use?

Gil here

Yep, just gotta work on gear :)

Fetching ranger


Cool, look forward to the finished sheet. Still on vacation.

No worries, trying to finish between work, life, more either lol. Tomorrow I work in the evening so I might have more time lol


My character from Devil Went Down is about 3/4 of the way done. Still have to build the fluff part.


Once I have your fluff, I can get the first post. I have a general idea of the first 'mission' but I want to tailor it to Blask best I can. Fecthling is a nice choice, btw. Classic, but fitting.

Will have him done later today or tomorrow at latest. Running errands today but free tomorrow hopefully unless RL says otherwise.


Ah, quicker then you thought. Excellent!

Do you have any requests for anything in the game? Anything you want in particular (for example in another game I wanted some safe cracking and such things). Anything like that?

Hmm, something I am wanting??

I think it would be kinda cool if there were a multi-planar chase.

-----

What's your view of special manacles?

Example: if I spend extra gp to get cold iron manacles, and slap them in say a Fey creature, would said Fey be less able to escape since the cold iron would be restraining them better?


Multi-planar (and possibly planet) will be a mainstay of the game. I have been researching the ones that will make the best. Some of them are just too extreme for anything short of mere survival.

Any rules or stuff you always wanted to do but couldn't in a party game?

I think they would be an excellent investment for a being of your line of work. You'll be dealing with some varied creatures. I like the idea you have a tool for every job.


Anything else you'd like to add?

Not really, I like the idea of "always be prepared". I know that I will be going after fugitives, but I never know if the fugitives are going to have friends, or traps, or other tricks up their sleeves.

My guy is almost done, just gotta do mundane equipment (ie: rope, lights, etc)

Anything you are specifically wanting in your game? I know you mentioned jail escapes, chases, political agendas, etc. Anything rules wise? Did you want to do background skills, variant crafting, etc?


I like background skills. I never cared much for any of the crafting stuff (but that is just personal). In this sort of game tracking food and stuff shouldn't be needed. Sorry I haven't made an alias yet. I always do the name last. But I figure there is no rush.

I can start this game whenever you want. I have the first scene laid out in my mind, been pondering it for awhile now.


Vesk Soldier (Armor Storm) 3 | SP [3/36] HP: [34/34] RP: [7/7] | EAC: 18 KAC: 20 CMD: 23 Intimidate +8 | Profession Mercenary +10 | Per +0 | Athletics +11 |

No worries about the alias, I just recycled a previous one with a name thought would work.

You can do background skills. As per the rules. Tracking food hit your game won't be an issue, it will be 90% city based.

Getting the intro for yours all squared up too, I want to make sure it sounds right lol


I'm very excited about both of these games.

Do you want me to wait for the minor gear or shall we start? The opening scene (hopefully) won't require a grappling hook or a smokebomb.


Vesk Soldier (Armor Storm) 3 | SP [3/36] HP: [34/34] RP: [7/7] | EAC: 18 KAC: 20 CMD: 23 Intimidate +8 | Profession Mercenary +10 | Per +0 | Athletics +11 |

Your call, either way is good with me. Headed to work right now so posting will be random.

I am excited to see how my plot twists will work in your game. I have an opening scene in mind.

Is there anything you are against. (I.e., chase mechanics, the occasional non-core item/feat/baddie?

Was planning on a baddie having a gun is all, but that comes later.


First post up.

I've never used the actual chase mechanics and I have no issue with non-core stuff to help a cool plot or character (I once statted a reoccurring villain who had a ice hand...)


You around?


Vesk Soldier (Armor Storm) 3 | SP [3/36] HP: [34/34] RP: [7/7] | EAC: 18 KAC: 20 CMD: 23 Intimidate +8 | Profession Mercenary +10 | Per +0 | Athletics +11 |

Yes, sorry been working like crazy. I still exist :).

No rush whatsoever. Take your time.


This is not to rush or complain or anything (I have plenty of games!) just, should I expect multiple days between posts? It is fine if you say yes, I don't mind. Just curious.


In recovery from surgery. Sorry about a slight game delay. Shall return shortly.


Elf

No worries. Get well soon


You enjoying the game?


Vesk Soldier (Armor Storm) 3 | SP [3/36] HP: [34/34] RP: [7/7] | EAC: 18 KAC: 20 CMD: 23 Intimidate +8 | Profession Mercenary +10 | Per +0 | Athletics +11 |

Yes, very much. I figured the pirate/slaver angle was in the fly. Very much enjoying the mix of social/combat of it.

Hope you feel better after surgery :)

You enjoying the game so far?


I am feeling much better. It wasn't a big operation, but rather painful.

I am enjoying it. I didn't know we'd do the slaver aspect but it has turned out well! I am still having issue getting a feel for Blask himself, but it is coming together.


Work has thrown me a curve ball. I will be out till the weekend (and maybe till Tuesday, the weekend is a holiday here).

I WILL be back, no fears. Sorry about the delay. I'd much rather be playing Pathfinder, trust me...


Be back on Saturday.

No worries, was just trying what to do next.


Sorry, had a tree fall onto my power/internet/phone lines. Replies will be spotty till next week!


So, I'm sorry to say I'm just not feeling this game. Be it the setting, the plot, the game itself, I'm not sure. I was going to keep it going to the natural stopping point but it feels more like a chore then a game.

Any hard feelings if I make this one inactive?

no worries, sometime things just don't click or vibe. No fault on any person, its just the nature of the beast.

If there was something I could have done differently, please don't be afraid to tell me. Anything constructive is appreciated :)


Probably my fault. I didn't drive the game enough, I didn't provide Blask enough chances to shine as a character, so on and so forth.

Sorry!
