OOCness

And welcome to the OOC!

Hey all, welcome to the game. Let me know when your character is ready for review!

PLaying with the idea of a human vampire hunter. Something well out of my comfort zone.

Do we get 2 traits starting out?

You get two traits; but one must be a Carrion Crown campaign trait.

Sweet! Added Traits to my sheet.

The sheet pretty much done. Just need to add to my background a bit.

Are we doing rolls or a point buy?

Point Buy - 20 points.

Also, maximum starting gold.

Would you mind not using the Base Class of Vampire Hunter? If you really want to, I'll work around it; but it's from one of the few sourcebooks that Herolab can't be used to easily recreate.

If you really want to, I'll see if I can create it in Herolab, but this will take a bit more time.

If we could aim to have characters done by end of the week; that would be ideal.

Im using the one on the website. Is that one not the base one?

It is; which is why if you really want to you can, but I will need to create the class in herolab myself. Because apparently due to copyright issues (it's basically based on Vampire Hunter D), it was never printed as a full book; just a limited PDF run.

I guess there are other classes that might fit a 'vampire hunter'; ranger or slayer focused on hunting the undead.

I'll get to my character very soon, just being a bit indecisive about what class to play.

Are you hesitating between a few or is the field still wide open?

I've a few ideas for a fighter or rogue type as we seem to have magic covered. Might depend on what Sylphilis decides upon.

A question for our GM; will you tailor the adventure to a degree depending on what we have in the group, so for example if we lack a rogue type will that be an issue due to the lack of skill set to deal with traps and picking locks?

I'm cool with playing some kind of rogue but also have other ideas so can be flexible.

I will tailor it - to a degree. I certainly believe that it should be a little bit trickier to get past locked doors if you don't have a rogue; but I don't want someone to absolutely have to play a rogue.

Yo, short guy coming through! I'm going for a Gnome Prankster (Gnome-specific Bard archetype). Some say he's mildly entertaining, others say he's the most annoying little turd that ever walked Golarion. I'll leave that decision entirely up to the rest of my party.

Gonna play a halforc monk (lawful good) with a strict code of honour.

Given Christmas is actually quite close; I'm going to hold off on starting till after Christmas.

I'll review all characters this weekend.

Getting there with my profile but slow going. Can anyone recommend a good character builder that doesn’t require downloading to your laptop?

Pathbuilder is good if you don't mind doing it off of your phone

Thanks for the recommendation - wasn’t available on IOS unfortunately but I got a recommended substitute for Pathbuilder, RP Scribe, which has helped move things along.

I'll be starting the game next week. I've just been really busy, and this has been a high humidity summer here.

Thanks for the update!

And game is underway; see the actual IC thread now.

Please note, it's assumed you've read the player's guide, if you haven't or can't get a copy, let me know. Also; you've just come on a long journey, and so you have all your equipment with you.

So we've all been travelling together for sometime yeah. Was the reason for the journey to pay our respects for whatever reason at this funeral?

You're all connected to the person who died, and have been sent for in order to read the will.

You can either know or not know the rest of your party; your reasonings for knowing the person who died vary - if you have a campaign trait it'll be linked to that; otherwise in your background

Does anyone want to have travelled with Quántóu? He would be going to the funeral to pay his respects on behalf of an aged master of his monestary who is to frail to make the journey.

We could have either started the journey together (perhaps you come from the same area as the monestary and my master knew you would be going), or perhaps we met on the road and 'snap' we're going to the same place...

Im game, still need to finish my PC though.

Best get cracking then! Think Willvr mentioned that a vampire hunter might have been a 'no go', unless you sorted that out.

I'm up for having met along the way. At the very least, it'll spare us having a bunch of posts doing introductions.

OK, done enough to actually play. What campaign traits are we using?

Okay, I'll be posting tomorrow. Last couple of weeks have been overwhelming at work.

I went ahead and rolled Diplomacy to go along with my post. Not sure if you prefer the rolls here or in the OOC.

Diplomacy to get the townsfolk to calm down: 1d20+4 18

As part of a social interaction, in the IC is fine.

For combat here; so I can combine them together with one round by round post.

At this point, anyone talking to them needs to make either a diplomacy check, or an aid another diplomacy check - you can tell they're swaying; but not enough just yet.

I did roll Diplomacy. I posted my result in my previous OOC post. I've added it to my IC post as well.

Quántóu is no diplomat, I'll leave assisting to other people. Mine was just a question to the villagers.

Initiative: 1d20+3 23

Initiative https://orokos.com/roll/969669 = 9 + 2 = 11

Hey Willvr. I'd quite like to have a LINE or perhaps a Discord chat for the game. Its good for rallying the troops to posting, for planning and also just the social aspect. I find either of those apps great cos' they're easy to use on my mobile. What do you think?

I am open to Discord - LINE is not feasible for me though. I think I set up a Discord account ages ago.

Everyone can act before the thugs pushing their way to the front - it's clear there's going to be combat.

Sorry all, been insanely hot here in Aus.

This isn' t meant to be a major combat, so tomorrow I'll move you on by having you having driven them off. Will be back to posting daily from tomorrow.

Ok, sounds good

Hey Willvr hope you're ok. Whats the plan with this as you've not been about much since we've started, do you think you'll be able to pick up the pace soon?

Sorry, had massive internet issues. Should pick up the pace from next week.

Sorry, been really besieged at work last couple of days - had intended to post yesterday, but both days I haven't gotten home till quite late.
