Glad to hear you're on the mend.

Before skipping ahead too far I'd just like to ensure that, one way or another, that dang ladder from the Boneyard wall gets brought into the city; it kind of defeats the whole purpose of the wall.

CanadienneBacon · 22nd September 2009, 07:36 PM

I haven't read the IC yet today...has anyone indicated they'd like to do something about the ladder? I'll need one of you to post to that effect before I can assist...

CanadienneBacon · 22nd September 2009, 07:37 PM

...if only dogs could talk.

Ambrus · 22nd September 2009, 08:20 PM

Who says they can't?

I'll post shortly to the effect that Sandstone will endeavor to remove the ladder along with other nighttime activities he has planned.

CanadienneBacon · 22nd September 2009, 09:59 PM

I think I would fall out of my chair laughing if Taran decided he needed to speak up about the ladder. I'm having visions a la the movie Road Trip:

"Hey, Old Man. Tell Grandma to get in the kitchen and make me some blueberry pancakes."

This is going to get interesting. I was planning on having Elyra try to shadow the "dog".

Ambrus · 23rd September 2009, 01:11 PM

But can she see in the dark?

CanadienneBacon · 23rd September 2009, 02:47 PM

At this point, I really only need to hear from PCs who intend to do something other than sleep. Ambrus posted to this effect for Taran. Anyone else have specific night time action/s to declare? I'll wait a little while today before I post in the IC, but I plan to DM fiat that "you sleep through the night" by this afternoon--at least for those of you who don't declare otherwise.

For those of you who do declare otherwise, I haven't quite figured out how to communicate the results of your PCs action/s to you...will probably come in the form of an sblocked post in the IC, depending on how many of you plan to stay awake and what the nature of your night's activities are. If there are more of you and/or the situation requires group interaction and not individual investigation, we'll probably just leave things to open posting (though resolution via e-mail could be an option, too).

Ambrus · 23rd September 2009, 03:10 PM

You have my email address if you'd ever care to send me something discreetly. I also didn't intend you to have to type a long itemized response for my PC's nighttime activities; a brief post stating any pertinent results (or lack thereof) is fine with me. Also, in case it wasn't obvious, I intended Sandstone to be discreet in his activities; he'll endeavor to be unobserved while pursuing his goals.

Sorry about the delay. Yesterday was a very full one, and I didn't really have time to post. Done now, though, and since Tac is (per usual) blissfully ignorant of ulterior motives, he'll sleep through the night, without realizing the dog or his cousin have plans for sneaky sneaking overnight.

CanadienneBacon · 24th September 2009, 01:31 AM

Is Elyra going to shadow Sandstone during the night, or was that just idle chat?

Ambrus · 24th September 2009, 02:05 AM

I'm fairly certain mfloyd3 was serious in that Elyra would try to stealthily follow Sandstone around in the dark. She's kind of funny that way... :P

Guilty as charged! I just posted in the IC threat to try to get away from Tac. Then it's tailing the guy with the tail.

So is Elyra going to be using a light source while skulking around or is she simply going to fumble around in the dark?

Working by star or moonlight, however much of each is there. Remember, she's got no way of knowing Ambrus has darkvision.

I had a post typed up and written yesterday but when EN World was taking forever to load pages, I elected to save my work on Notepad and try again at a later date. I was able to get on the site this morning and have posted a DM's response--sorry for the delay. The site's been inconsistent for me. We are now on Day 2 of in-game time.

I'm still working my way through the Pathfinder core rulebook. I haven't seen anything I hate. Let's go ahead and make the switch from the beta rules to the official Pathfinder rules. Caveat: It's likely that I'll suffer some amount of 3.5/PF rules confusion for a while, since I'm running a 3.5 tabletop in real life but also running PF online. Gentle reminders of PF rules alterations from players will be appreciated when/if you feel I've made an error.

Ambrus · 27th September 2009, 03:08 PM

Are there any hit points to be regained during the night?

CanadienneBacon · 28th September 2009, 01:50 AM

After an uninterrupted 8-hour sleep, you regain your level in HP, yes. I was pleased to see upon checking the hardcover that PF has not altered this rule.

Walking Dad · 28th September 2009, 10:18 AM

New Sivan is in the same post as his old sheet.

jkason · 28th September 2009, 04:57 PM

Tac should be updated now, as well. I didn't notice a whole lot of changes, but here's what I did see:

* Added Combat Maneuver Defense
* Eliminated human bonus weapon proficiency
* Dodge now no longer takes an action to activate (but is lost when flatfooted)
* Acrobatics bonus to defensive fighting now requires two more ranks
* 1/2 rogue level (min 1) added to Perception checks for traps and Disable Device.

I think everything else that's different didn't affect Tac's current build. Let me know if I missed anything, though, and I'll change it. :0
