Okay, I think I'm done. Jilliana 'Sparksie' von Holzinn, scholar of the arcane, alchemist, and alas, failed priestess of the Maker should be about ready to go, in post #270. I think the only thing that needs work is her equipment list- it certainly doesn't fit any of the usual 'class...

Meant to post this earlier: In the interest of getting things rolling, I'm going to go with the gnome artificer/alchemist. If it just doesn't work, I'll deal with that when it happens, but I've held things up more than enough. Basic sheet should be mostly done- I'll try to get the rest of the...

Flynn took one more quick look down the passageway, to make sure nothing was sneaking up behind them. Then he stepped forward just far enough to get a view of the cavern ahead, and the ongoing commotion. He almost wished he hadn't, as the eerie light showed the twisting worm-like beasts. But...

Word on the street is that he isn't a very nice person, errr, in person, as it were. But a lot of other writers aren't very nice people either, so it doesn't shape enjoyment of his writing much. I still read his work (Kraken, for instance, was a good bit of urban fantasy)- but I only get it from...

Okay, here goes the next round. I'm down to two ideas at this point- I'll leave the Lovecraftian warlock and elven archer/archaeologist for the future. I'm going to post up what I have for the two finalists, in successive posts following this one, and I'll edit them in as I can- but I wanted to...

I had a 15 hour workday today, and 12+ tomorrow. I'll try to have something be Wednesday night. Otherwise you may have to start without me- I don't want everyone else to get penalized for my slack.

For those keeping track, current concept list for a scholar type stands at 3. Will save the Charlatan Bard and disgraced courtesan/dancer (Rogue/open hand monk) for later. In no particular order: 1. AKA 'Holtzmann': Rock gnome Rogue/Knowledge Cleric/Artificer Wizard; Guild artisan/Sage...

On another note, while I'm playing with concepts: Is the 'Monster Hunter' Fighter archetype available? It is from the same UA article as the Inquisitive rogue- the 'Gothic Heroes' one.

I started with tabletop, WAY back in the day, and I've done pretty reasonable amounts of Tabletop, PbP, and LARP- they each have their charms and peculiarities. But I've moved often enough over the years that I haven't had a solid TT group in some time, and my LARPs have aged out (or I've moved...

Looks like consensus is for a scholar, so I'll focus that way. I'm traveling and holiday-ing for most of the rest of the week (with some work packed in on either side for good measure), so I won't have much computer time, but I'll see what I can write up longhand.

This week is going to be kind of crazy for me- work, travel, holiday, travel, work... Flynn is content to hang back and act as rear guard- he will ready an action to attack if anything shows up behind us (following, attracted to the sounds of combat, etc.). He may move up to support in later...

At least one of the scholar candidate is less Gandalf, and more the magical equivalent of Holtzmann... (Rock gnome, Knowledge cleric +Artificer wizard)

Still waffling here- even more than usual, which is saying something. I guess I'll have to force myself through this step by step. Step one: What would work best, for this group and this setting: serious scholar or ranged combat specialist? BONUS: When I reach a decision here, it unlocks a...

Other features of Fossice: -The Academy: while the Church of the Maker operates a number of small schools throughout the city (as they do throughout the world), providing a basic level of education and some training in the common trades to many children (a great number of whom go on to serve...

But wait- there is more! On the layout of the city of Fossice: Part 1- the city: The City of Fossice: The city is made up of several distinct districts- there are five “official” districts and one “unofficial” one; each of the larger districts has contains several...

Posting this for now: A bit of discussion of the geography of our fair city of Fossice- as always, comment away (and in GM terms, feel free to comment, modify, or deny as needed). This post is purely about the physical geography of the area- I'll have another one about the features of the city...

Flynn kept his place at the rear of the group, and he kept most of his attention focused on the passsgeway behind them- who could tell what sorts of things, besides that kelpie, were out there? It would not do to be surprised in these tunnels. He had been uncharacteristically quiet since his...
