GD3 - Fangwood Keep (Inactive)

Game Master Magabeus

Claim the castle!



Claim the Castle!

Fangwood Keep has changed hands innumerable times since its founding decades ago on the border between the warring nations of Molthune and Nirmathas. Over the years, both countries have sacrificed money and soldiers in an effort to control the fortress along the Marideth River valley, both for its tactical location and for its secure defenses. Recently, however, the battles around Fangwood Keep have dwindled to a trickle as Nirmathas has firmly rooted itself in the surrounding valley, allowing the tide of war to shift elsewhere and peace to settle at last over Fangwood Keep.

This respite was shattered by the arrival of a renegade Molthuni commander named Pavo Vos. Obsessed with capturing Fangwood Keep and unraveling the fortress’s mysteries, the defecting lieutenant unlawfully used his platoon to secure the castle, much to the ire of both the Molthuni and Nirmathi governments. Now the task of bringing Vos to justice and reclaiming Fangwood Keep for Nirmathas lies solely in the PCs’ able hands.

This module will be starting Nov 1.

What do I need from you:
1) a legal lvl 3 to 5 PFS character, I do not allow pregen's. Disclaimer: I don't have the module yet, but the reviews say it's hard on lvl 3's.
2) the commitment to try to post once a day
3) your vital statistics in your status bar (Hp / AC / saves / init etc)

What can you expect from me:
1) the commitment to try to post once a day
2) the commitment to bring this module to it's end within the gamesday time limits (three months)
3) a chronicle when we are done and you are still alive

Recruiting process:
The first 4 are certainly in, I have currently reserved two spots. If those places do not get filled I will turn to the first few people on the waiting list.

Hi GM G,

I am submitting Basalte for this module. I'm a frequent poster (usually more than once per day, always at least once a day) and would like to play this module very much.

Please note that Basalte is currently in a PFS scenario, but will be done by November 1st. He will be level 5 at that time.

Dark Archive

Hi,
I would like to join you in claiming Fangwood Keep! Zhana is a Inquisitor-Witch Hunter/Urban Barbarian at level 4.2, so there is a very good chance that she will be level 5 by Nov. 1.
Posting one or more times a day will be no problem and I would definitely commit to seeing the module through to it's end.

I will be updating the rest of Zhana's sheet this weekend.

Dark Archive

I'd like to submit Boram for consideration, with the understanding that it might be tough on him. He's at 3.2, but if you're willing to take him, I think (hope) he'll be fine...

Scarab Sages

Hi Pedwiddle, nice to see you join! Lithrac here.

Dark Archive

Oh, hey, didn't see ya there (well, didn't bother to hover over the alias...whatever)! It'll be fun to play with another of your characters; they're always really well-played/flavorful!

Scarab Sages

Yakima would be interested in giving it a go. She is a level 3.2 Alchemist.

Grand Lodge

I'd like to submit Garret Longthorn, 5th level halfling ranger (guide). I'd be happy to change his picture so it doesn't clash with Boram if he is accepted too, to avoid confusion.

Hi Lithrac, it's Stem/Ardisen.

Scarab Sages

Hi Stem, glad to see you join as well!

Liberty's Edge

Reporting if you'll have me! Thifmar Eneok level 5 dwarven barbarian. Details of character are in this profile.


Thanks for tuning in folks:

@Basalte: I am not sure if Dimitra is ready to let you go as of the 1st of November, there is still a lot of scenario to cover there. If it is finished by then you are in, otherwise I will turn to the next on the list.

Currently in:
1) Basalte (depending on current scenario)
2) Zhana
3) Boram
4) Yakima
5) Garret
6) Reserved spot, might be released at a later stage

Waitlist
7) Thifmar

Note that I did not consider party composition, just the order in which you posted here.

Scarab Sages

That's a fair point. There's no meaning in rushing the other scenario either. Would you allow me to replace Basalte's application with another of my characters in case we don't finish The Traitor's Lodge on time, please? I would greatly appreciate it, since Fangwood Keep is a module I'd really love to play.

It seems that the current party is heavy on melee fighters and alchemist. I can propose:

Ouroboreia, a 5th-level wizard. She's currently available and will remain so until November 1st.

Auric, a 3rd-level archaeologist bard and trapfinder. He's currently in the last fight of a scenario, and will definitely be ready by November 1st. He may even be 4th level by then.


Basalte, that is fine. Your choice on character.

Auric is welcome only if he protects Garret Greenbottle and he grows some beard on his measly face ;-)

Dark Archive

Wonderful, Auric it is then! I can't make any promise on his beard, although it might just grow back by the time he returns from the Land of Linnorm Kings! ;)

Liberty's Edge

You can take me off the wait list, I got into another game, thanks though!

Scarab Sages

Excellent, I look forward to this. Bombs away!


Update: we have one spot available, the reserved spot is released

Currently in:
1) Auric
2) Zhana
3) Boram
4) Yakima
5) Garret
6)

Sovereign Court

I would definitely be interested in this :-)

Grand Lodge

What you gonna play Luke?

Sovereign Court

Depending on whether a PbP finishes in time... a Sorceror 4 or an Arcanist 4 :-)

Grand Lodge

Either would be good. Not seen an Arcanist in action yet.

Sovereign Court

Hmmm... After some careful checking, it would appear that neither of my in-tier PCs is probably going to be available :-/

Consequently, I will stand aside, so that someone that can *definitely* play can have the spot :-)

Dark Archive

It was a close call but Auric survived the Shades of Ice series! I'll play him in a game at my local lodge on 30th October, which should place him exactly at 4th level for Fangwood Keep!


Thanks Luke, sorry to hear that you won't be able to make it.

Still one available spot!

Dark Archive

I'd like to join with Clair :)

Cleric 2, Oracle 1


Glad to have you Clair.

1) Auric
2) Zhana
3) Boram
4) Yakima
5) Garret
6) Clair

Please join the gameplay thread IC and get to know each other.

GM G,
Sorry to do this but my local PF group has decided to Fangwood Keep and I will need to drop out of this scenario. Sorry for the late notice but once a few members head I was doing this PBP they got excited to run it in person.


@Zhana: that's ok. Thanks for letting us know.

And we have a free spot!

1) Auric
2) Boram
3) Yakima
4) Garret
5) Clair
6) .....

Who wants to play?

Liberty's Edge

Room for one more? Ranger /archer 4 if there is a spot for him.
