Discuss-
So what is Henry's relation to Bartholomew?

As the brash Taldan is announced, another halfling, dressed in green and brown looks sternly over his cup at the cacophony coming from across the room. To his side is a brownish-red bird with an ornate saddle and a hooded cloak, cheerily tearing at the remains of an unfortunate rat who won't be stealing from the kitchen any longer.
What's all this brouhaha? he thinks. Bah! Another Taldan fop with the thinnest line of blue in his blood making enough noise to stir the hordes of Belzken...
Orryn says nothing aloud, however, and absently strokes his pet as he returns to his drink and his thoughts.

The noble Flaxseed clan began with my archaeologist (Trotter) and has slowly expanded among the locals.
Grandpa: Scruffy (Mike B's gunslinger, dead)
Grandma: Eadie (Jessica's aged alchemist who hands out her "Werther's Originals" to opponents)
the three sons:
Horatio (Mike B's cavalier)
Henry (my cavalier)
"Black Bart" (my rogue-the black sheep of the noble family)
Henry's kids:
Trotter (my archaeologist, who founded the Cassomir PFS Lodge)
Lilian (Becca's witch)
Horatio's adopted kid:
Hotor (Quinn's half-orc/half-wit barbarian who thinks he's a halfling - he calls full orcs "lings" and has ranks in Craft: fingerpainting. Definitely one of the most colorful local characters)
Let's hope we can finish the final encounter in Blakros Matrimony before next week, ehh Fendahl?

Henry's on third so he just has a wolf. Next level he's getting one kind of dinosaur or another. Probably a brachiosaurus.
Well, Orryn was a GM baby for two levels, cos mechanically it just wouldn't work until he could afford a haversack...and even then, he had a lance and his haversack and a loin cloth until he got enough gold for a suit of darkwood wooden armor. LOL

@ Vasilios - "I beat you at Dungeons & Dragons....and it was Advanced!"
@Fendahl - yeah, I had to check you out. I feel like I've been a wet blanket in the Sanos Abduction that you're running. Just been having a hard time with that Ezrek pregen. No excuse.
Linnea is half-elf as well. On break from adventuring with the usual gang of misfits and dope-addicts... and Omrax. :)

Eager to begin, so a little about me. I am a combat heavy Reach warrior with a little bit of extra divine spell casting on the side. Depending on how maps are run in the PbP game, I can either be strong or not so much, as most of my ability comes from AoOs.
I originally belonged to the Osirion Faction, but converted to the Shadow Lodge, a group I am still very fond of and avid member of still. Because of limited imagination on some people's part, I was forced to officially not be a Shadow Lodge member, or so the VC's think, and I heard the need for aid in the call to arms of Taldor. I joined that Faction to raise arms in the new Crusade, and was given the titles of Lord Baron and Huscarl. My main weapon is the Longspear, WitchHammer so named because it struck down the drug dealing witch of Bloodcove, and has since then receive many notches for slaying various BBEG's. I tend to merder, (LG style) dark druids and the like that misuse nature or the natural world, or poison communities in ways such as drugs.
Recently, I slew the last known members of a Goblin tribe, and rescued an Owlbear from their stupidity, which decided to follow me into battle. Both being oddities, we found a certain unspoken kenship, and I have since trained him in the rare art of the Australian Ninja Drop Bear Clawed Hand descending from Heaven.

Yanos, a pleasure to meet you.
I've been taking some time off from doing work for the Society. I last ventured with my favored group of Pathfinders to help out with a caravan route that had been waylaid by some pesky goblins raising the dead. But they're busy taking care of some group called the Twincandles - a gang I believe.
I try to be quick with a joke to lighten the mood and help keep everyone at their fightin' best. While my scorpion whip can sting a bit, I prefer to use it to trip my enemies - allowing my heftier companions a better chance at putting them away. I tend to stay out of the politics of the different factions, but I've been happy with Andoran - my distant cousin belonged to the faction and recommended it to me when I joined up with the Society.
Gameplay is open for dotting purposes. I will have the introductory post up this evening or the morning.

Ezrek has a pregen! I'm flattered!
So...APL breakdown time!
Henry- Lvl 3
Yanos- Lvl 5
Linnea- Lvl 3
Fendahl- Lvl 4
Vasilios- Lvl 3
Orryn- Lvl 4
3+3+3+4+4+5=22/6=3.666666667. Rounds to APL 4
Looks like high tier to me!

I need to double check the wording on the chronicle sheet but I'm pretty sure Henry has a boon from Shades of Ice Part III that gives him constant Endure Elements. I just can't remember if it applies to hot environments as well because that was a northern series. I'll double check before it becomes relevant.

I just got that one myself. It only cold down to 0 degrees.
Heading back home, should a have a post up in a few hours.
Here is a Dropbox link to the holiday boon. It can be used in this sceanrio.
@Yanos- No problem, probably my fault. I'm so used to playing with the same groups of players that I failed to explain how I run combats. I do not rotate the names through the initiative order, rather I continue to repost the original order and list who is up below that. Like I said, I really appreciate posting early if that is your opportunity to post and its much easier if players edit the map themselves, since they know what they want to do.
Speaking of which, I altered your action since the other hobgoblin went down. If you wanted to something else, feel free to correct me.
Cool.
** spoiler omitted ** Stuff
Hey, I thought we were keeping that private! ;) Kidding aside, really?
Another aside, I keep thinking your Beleg when you post. You guys are messin with my mind!

Orryn's shorter than Beleg. ;-)
Yeah, really. Fortunately the GM knows me and knows I'm not usually like that, so he kinda stepped in to smooth things out. And to be as fair as I can to the complainers, the PC is a GM baby without a roleplay history so I'm still fleshing details out, plus he's more than a little addled so he's challenging to talk to.
Since I've run the scenario in question before (Glass River Rescue), I was throwing out a few cockamamie ideas during the plotting stage that was perceived as trying to keep the players from getting their prestige points. Needless to say, I've pulled back and am not doing much of anything beyond combat dice-rolling in that one.
But enough whining. Putting on my big-boy pants, building a bridge, and getting over it.

At any rate... I didn't see anything that came across as derailing anything. I think what happens sometimes is players read the bold stuff, but don't read the descriptions as carefully. Which sucks, if someone takes the time to type it out, fellow players should take the time to read the post. Though, I know I've been guilty of scanning posts - especially when I'm at work.
My favorite in-character arguing is still from my very first PbP - Sewer Dragons of Absalom. Desmond vs. Sahar.
