And now i have an image of a bunch of stereotypical college professors running scared thru the woods saying "My Word!" and "this is quite the pickle we got ourselves into! eh, Reginald? Reginald? REGINALD! NOOOO!" all the while being hunted by Foxglove and the PCs:) thank you!
My group turned down Foxglove's offer to go bore hunting.
so this is what started it:)
at some point this saturday i will stat up the two Bores, however i thought i'd allow the fine community here a crack at it as well (because outrageous scenarios are fun:) so on to the parameters.1) there has to be at least two
2) one of them has to be named Reginald, i personally like Reginald GoldFeather iv, but if you got something better go for it:)
3) has to be CR 3- we roll stats so it can be a little higher then 2 (the CR of the original encounter) it can even be higher if you want, tho no more then CR 5.
4) the less useful the gear the better, i mean really useless people!
5) Tweed Jackets and/or monocles
6) lets get creative! Aristocrats are too easy, there has got to be another way to convey them.
thanks everyone and have fun with it, or not
check back by midnight saturday for my Bores of The Tickwood
also i should put a disclaimer: I Do NOT condone the Hunting of Humans In Real Life there are Deer for a reason!
Also i'm only giving myself a deadline so i'll actually do it, anyone else can take their time:)

Someone in there has to have a last name of Peabody.
And monocles must be involved...
Reginald Peabody IV it is!
:D
Edit: i must admit i'm tempted to run this guy as a PC in something:)
and Monocles Must be involved i agree:)
class and level: i'm thinking since their gear and tactic won't be.... Optimal:) i might bump the levels to 2 or 3 even.
Set-Up: this is the hard one, i'm still thinking on it, although it is a good way to show the PCs His dark side:)

You absolutely need a high-CHA blonde fop Magus with Anthropomorphic Animal, Unnatural Lust, and Waves of Ecstasy who wears somethingorother with a HUUUUUGE spell failure chance so there's a 100% chance of each of those spells failing at exactly the wrong time.
They ARE Englishmen, aren't they?
Lord Chumley Q. Dudley, Escort to the Queen?
EDIT: My ultimate goal is to get England to declare war on me. I crave attention.
Mildred McGillicuddy, Chelish Diva Bard.
her only magic items Gossip Glass (set of magic opera glasses, also works for monocles i assume) and my personal favorite pathfinder magic item name "The Pendulate Divan of Emperor Fortigre" this would be a less powerful variant with only Endure Elements and abilty to walk
both of those can be found in Taldor, Echoes of Glory

Happy anniversary!
Though what kind of lunatic gets married in August?
Heck, we're from the San Francisco Bay Area (1 week over 90 a year) and we chose March!

13 years since we married, 22 since our first date (hence the august marriage:)
we gave everyone only 2 weeks notice, so her Mom wouldn't create a big affair, and to annoy my brothers, who all need 3 weeks notice and painful amounts of pre-planning to do anything.
on our wedding day it was 91 degrees with 90% humidity, and an outdoor wedding to boot!
however my outfit consisted of a Hawaiian Shirt and shorts (Lisa wore an Antique wedding dress she got from the thrift store i worked at for super cheap ($10! yay for awesome hipster women bosses!) we also saved money cause my Wife's sister in law was a local cake decorator, all together the whole shebang cost less then $100.
the money we saved we used on our honeymoon, we quit our and jobs packed everything we could into our little blue '91 ford escort hatchback with a car top carrier and we embarked on a 2 and a half month, 7 thousand mile tour of the western united states (loved san fran by the way!) we drove down the whole west coast from hoquiom, Wa all the way down to San Diego, thats how we moved to Seattle without knowing a single person there at all (Seattle is still and will always be my favorite place i lived in:)
all together since we got married we've traveled over 16,000 miles by car (not including going to work or putzing around town)
i like to drive, its what i'm best at, especially heavy machinery, which is what i miss most with staying home with the kids, especially demolition, their is literally nothing funner in the world then knocking down a building with an excavator, if i was in Peter Pan that would be my happy thought:)
