Character should be good to go except equipment if you want to review.
"Hi there! Yes you! Don't be shy. My name is Priscilla purveyor of fine curios. Can I interest you in this fine hand embroidered handkerchief, or a master craftsman toy soldier, no, no, no... you look like the serious type, perhaps some information may be of value to you."

One step closer :) now over to the game thread

Priscilla - the Knowledge Geography is especially for you. But I think we have a few new players here.
When I post spoilers with a DC - just do a roll and if it is high enough - check out what I have written.
If you want to post something only for me - put it in a spoiler and mark it for the GM.
Occasionally if I need a dice roll I make a GM only spoiler. But 95% of rolls I do will be in the open.
If anyone has questions - ask. There are some experienced players here as well who can also answer.

Feral, I'll send you the pdf later on. I just realized in my search for something else that Heirloom Weapon is no good for exotic weapons now. I don't have enough time now but later I will either swap the trait or pick another weapon and send you that pdf.
As of right now the stat block on my character profile is still incomplete/inaccurate.

Quick question, what experience progression will this be. It's been a LONG time since I've started at 1st level.

Pendin Fust |

Gotcha thanks, just got the PDF today for PFS...I am dl'ing it right now.

A few comments:
First of all - I absolutely love your participation so far. There have been some great posts. Keep on and we will have a great game.
I try to give you as much freedom as possible. This medium allows a much more in depth way to role play.
But as we have a few fresh players to PFS I should note a few rules I'm not allowed to break.
1) Money - this is prescripted. I can't hand out any extra. Well - I might be able to bend the rules if someone has a skill that allows a day job to play that out during the scenario instead of doing the roll at the end. But that is as far as I can go.
On the bright side - you don't have to worry about loot and distribution or taking whatever isn't nailed to the ground.
2) sandbox vs free play. I will try to give you as much freedom as possible - as long as you get back on track as needed. No - officially we haven't yet started and the prelude is just to get you to know each other. The info I give in the checks is Golarion canon that I feel you might know / gives you a deeper understanding.
3) speed of play. Please let me know if it goes too fast. The free roleplaying can be overwhelming if you get to the computer and find 20 new posts. I try to pce it so that you have something new and to look forward when you check the campaign thread - but not that you are overwhelmed. I only know I get it wrong if you let me know.
I guess there are a few more bits
But let's enjoy and move on.

Sharing information
I don't know what you prefer. If someone makes a knowledge check aimed at everyone - do you want to rephrase the information in your own words or just assume everyone then is free to read the spoilers.
I'm fine either way - but thought I check as I haven't seen anyone yet sharing what they found out.

![]() |

Personally I haven't been reading spoilers that aren't addressed to me or my roll circumstance. I was just about to ask you, Thod, can I assume you will read all spoilers or should I continue to address you as well as whomever I'm speaking to? This applies to situations where not everyone can plainly hear.

![]() |

Cool, I will just assume you read everything I spoiler. Please do. I will address you in the spoiler tab when I use rolls or potentially important material.
Re: "A few comments:" - I'm enjoying the pace and think this could turn out well and like you said we haven't even really started yet. Excited is a good word.

Yes - you keep me busy :)
I try to keep up.
Priscilla:
Here is your character audit:
Domain spell - Longstrider not Expedicious Retreat
Fly +5 (+2 bonus for small creatures)
Magical Knack not allowed trait for PFS - sorry - one of the few in ADP not on the list
Starknife only 24 gp
CMB -1 (there is no +10 - this is your attack modifier and with +10 and added d20 you would grapple like a fifth level monk)
All
I will go through the characters of the other new players as well - but that could take a day or two.

Some days work can be very boring.

Thanks for taking the time to review.
Two questions:
1)
Exploration Subdomain of Travel shows expeditious retreat, unless I am not clear on subdomains.
2)
Changed trait to Good Dreams (Desna) Halfling Religion Trait

Didn't spot you had a sub domain. I only did the travel domain. I can check tomorrow.

I think we are rolling on the assumption that you convinced us all to wear the hats during that time-skip. For the sake of humor.
That's what I thought! I still think it's funny. All these surly dudes glowering here and there, unsure of each other, less sure of their futures, convinced/forced to wear straw hats by the only female in the party.
The visual in my mind is very funny.

I like the idea it was just a big misunderstanding, since you were afraid to offend her you're wearing them, either way you are keeping those hats now! :)

FREE HAT!

How are you adjudicating active perception rolls while moving through areas? I am looking for something specific but does my perception roll apply to noticing if we are being followed or watched as well?

![]() |

I can't say I always do it the same way ...
I try never to let you be without a chance of perception if you are just walking down the road etc. I assume a certain degree of passive perception here.
Sometimes I ask for a perception ahead of time and use the check 20 posts later
Sometimes I just miss it - so I ask when it happens - it is less optimal for meta-gaming but it happens
If you do rolls on your own I always take them into account - and on high rolls you will notice something unusual. I reserve the freedom that this is just a made up red herring.
Take 10 is fine - just post it
If you walk into a new area - for example - you open a door - then you have to post that you listen or do other ways to check out what might be behind a door.
This also goes for looting. I might give a reminder for perception - but I only list items that are not hidden - unless you tell me you search.

Ride check to game while driving: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

No worry - here in the UK you use 'on the Road' also when you are not at home.
It was my turn to get our son to karate. In principle this gives me up to an hour of browsing the net and posting - but reception is so abysmal that I had to walk to the middle of the ar park.
Normally it isn't as bad. Now I have to wrestle my son off the iPad. My wife claIms the laptop.

![]() |

sleight of hand for the ipad: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10

There is also the 'It's bedtime' routine that still works. Likely not much longer ...
But by then he will have his own laptop.
You really keep me busy here :) I thought I had lots of time reading, preparing - and I'm barely keeping up.
Everyone is doing quite well so far. Anyone fearing about his faction mission - no worry - your time will come.

Heh, I'm so glad my 4 year old doesn't quite get to use the PC yet. Although she does monopolize my dice when my RL group meets.

![]() |

really excited about this infiltration.

Yeah that's a new one on me too but I haven't been playing as long as others.

![]() |

OMG 3-D MAP!!

You can switch me out to Merisiel if you want.

Yeah gender of the mini doesn't matter much to me. Side note: your paint jobs look great from what I can see. That's one aspect of tabletop gaming I have yet to attempt.

Also just had a visual pop into my head of Artemis trying to play his lute to inspire courage with his hands bound. It didn't work and alerted the bad guys. There may or may not have been a straw hat involved.
