GM Valen's PFS 1e 0-20 The Devil We Know Part I: Shipyard Rats (CORE) Discussion

[Theron Randallas]

hey V...were you planning on doing the full run of these scenarios?

[Seebonickk]

Thanks for running!!

[Nightkit]

I believe that plan is to but, at the moment, the GM has other more pressing concerns.

Thanks for running this.

[Theron Randallas]

i wasn't sure if his plans had changed with what happened...was just checking...didn't mean to sound insensitive...

[Ashtoret]

I will be very happy to play with you 2 and the following parts! However, I will have a trip for two weeks from April 28 to May 15, when I will not be able to write posts... Let's see how it develops further. In any case, it was a cool game and I am grateful to GM and all the players! :)

[GM Valen]

My current plans are to run the entire series. Only the scheduling is uncertain. I am fine with a late start date for part 2 if it increases player availability.

[GM DavidC]

I would love to continue onward.

[Theron Randallas]

if i could ask a favour...and it's a big one i think. if possible, could someone gm Night March of Kalkamedes before Theron hits lvl 6? I have the second part of the adventures done with a pregen..just need the first one...if you know, you know...no spoilers!

[Nightkit]

Night March has a sequel?

[Merida Bowie]

I am tempted to GM a CORE run of The Night March of Kalkamedes...

However, it would be my first attempt at online GMing ever!
And I only ran two face2face game so far...

Which start date do you have in mind, Theron?

[Theron Randallas]

i am flexible...i would hate to leave the group without a tank...especially if the whole run of scenarios is being played...

[Seebonickk Core character]

I think I've played the CORE version of that one.

[Nightkit]

I know I have and with this PC. I've also played it in Standard but not GMed it in either Standard or Core.

[phaeton_nz]

I could run it if you prefer Merida. I've done lots of pbp GMing - got two on the go at the moment.

[Merida Bowie]

I also played The Night March of Kalkamedes with this PC - and I've played it (face to face) in Standard, too.

I was thinking about the timing, as that scenario takes quite some time in pbp.
I am 100% sure we would not be finished before May 15th.
But maybe right after we finished part 2 of The Devil we know?

I would have no problem waiting for Theron until he has helped Kalkamedes.
What do the others think?
Maybe some (including our GM) would like to join him in his quest?

Also, thank you for the offer, @phaeton_nz - I appreciate it.
Will think about it in the next days, too. ;-)

@Theron: Now I'm really curious - what is the name of the second part of The Night March of Kalkamedes?

Opinions, anyone?

Are there others in this group who want to play The Night March of Kalkamedes?

[Nightkit]

I've already played it

[Ashtoret]

I am not ready to sign up for a new game until the second half of May, as I will be traveling for 2 weeks without Internet at all ;)

[GM Valen]

I have played Night March in core (though not in standard).

Does Theron anticipate reaching 6th level before completing the Devil You Know series? He could take slow track for a level if that is a concern.

In any event, am I correct that players anticipate being ready to start Part 2 on or about May 15th?

[Theron Randallas]

yeah ill slow track for now...march will be the last game before popping to 6th...im cool with that...good to start on time

[Theron Randallas]

just realized something...i have top slow track this game as well...i played a game with a pregen and it applies when i hit level 5....hope that doesnt screw up the chronicle making too much boss....

[Seebonickk Core character]

yeah May 15th is good!

[Merida Bowie]

I was thinking about maybe running the Night March right after The Devil we know part 2, but as many of you already played it... *shrugs*
However, slow track for Theron is a very good idea! :-)

Yes, May 15th. Looking forward to it! :-D

[Ashtoret]

If you don't mind, I would ask for May 17. If it is not essential for us to start on Monday .) I'm coming back on the 15th, but it may be difficult for me to start day after day. I don't want to immediately accumulate debt on posts ))

May 17th start date it is.

[Theron Randallas]

If you go slow you might still be within Tier.

[Theron Randallas]

yeah, just...

Huge thanks )

[Nightkit]

I'm fine with that. Thanks.

[Menudo]

Ok

Works for me, too. :-)

[Seebonickk Core character]

@GM are you ok? Did you get a chance to do the chronicles?

[Theron Randallas]

don't forget i have to slow track it...

My apologies. With Outpost, I guess I had generated a number of chronicle sheets and didn't realize that I had forgotten to prepare those for this table.

Unfortunately, RPGChronicles appears to be inaccessible for me at the moment.

[Nightkit]

I just checked. It seems to be working now but it was inaccessable to everyone for quite some time. And some people wonder why I don't use it in my games.

I have found, for me anyways, that the benefits of RPGChronicles have far outweighed the glitches.

@ALL - Your chronicle sheets are now available here.

If there are no corrections/revisions within the next 48 hours, I will go ahead and report the game accordingly.

It has been a pretty crazy week here with a kids' school concert and/or practice going on every night and work picking up. I will post the briefing for Part 2 sometime tomorrow (or Friday at the latest).

Looking forward to continuing the adventure!

[Seebonickk Core character]

Thanks!

[Theron Randallas]

got my sheet,,,forgot to mention it earlier...

[Nightkit]

Processed my Chronicle - looks good. Some useful stuff on it too.

[Ashtoret]

Hey guys! I'm back from my retreat and ready to start.)

[GM Valen]

Please provide information for chronicles for Part II at this link.

[Merida Bowie]

rpgchronicles - done.

Shopping List for Part II:

1x Arrows (20) (1g)
2x Antitoxin (100gp)
Handy Haversack (2,000gp)
Wand of Longstrider (2PP)

Total: 2,101gp, 2PP

[Nightkit]

Before going in, Nightkit will purchase two antiplagues and a potion of Darkvision out of her remaining gold. (50x2 + 300 = 400). That only leaves her with drinking money (18gp)

I'm going SLOW on this one.

[GM Valen]

I hope everyone had an enjoyable weekend (and/or holiday and/or convention). Feel free to update your the location of your PC on the map (I believe more than one PC has entered the room beneath the street--if not, please let me know).

Also, speaking of holidays, etc., I will be on vacation between June 15 and June 26. I do not anticipate making any posts between those dates.

[Merida Bowie]

Thanks for the heads up, GM Valen.

Also: Isn't crossposting fun? ^_^
