A Merc's Life [OOC 01]

I second (or is it Third) the option. Leif's spot on with the races, I've been getting used to them, so it's up to you.

I'm glad to see that Saor Ghabhaltas is remaining the central city, I really enjoyed it and was looking forward to exploring it more

 

[Leif]

I'm up for the switch if you wish. I've got the campaign book and one or two others including the Elf book.

BTW, Scott, I've also got the hardcover setting book (Golarion) and "Elves of Golarion!"


(And I just got in my 4th copy of Eberron Campaign Setting this morning! Sheesh! About time for me to do something with a few of these, don't you think? And I've got at least two more coming, too. I may be a "one-man-inflation-engine" for Eberron books on ebay! )

Nice Work, you can use them as coasters for very large glasses of beer... mmmm I just had a beer from Britain called Hobgoblin beer last night. It was pretty good.

Wychwood Brewery brews

the only British beer I've ever had has been total, unexpurgated SWILL! Nevertheless, I was one click away from ordering a Hobgoblin Beer T-shirt just now before I came to my senses.

I have extream toruble with the gaelic race names, in all honesty. I can go for the campagn swith with no problems. I think i like the mercenary company and am glad you are keeping it. What book(s) should i be reading for the player's informattion?

EDIT:
the closest to british beer i have ever drank is guinnes stout...and i totally love it!!

 

[Scotley]

Never tried that one. I've seen it, but never had one.

Mike, I'm going to be taking a little vacation to Chicago starting early in the morning. I should be back to posting Regularly some time Thursday night. Please npc Keeland for me as needed. I'm going to be taking a computer along, but I don't think I'll have much time to post. We have a pretty busy schedule planned.

With the notable exception of Guiness, if that's British.

OK, campaign is now set in Golarion (Pathfinder Chronicles Campaign Setting). The country is Katapesh (excerpt attached).

Race Names: I'm going to use what I've done with languages as Old Azlanti (the language of the human rulers of Golarion in ages past). The altered race names I've come up with will be the names the races use to refer to themselves, the 'general public' will use the more common Elf, Dwarf, etc. That should make things a little less constraining - we can now intersperse 'Common' and Azlanti references freely.

No changes to characters as far as names, personality, feats, skills, etc please. I like the group we've got going, and I think it would disrupt continuity to switch stuff around. Feel free to look at the Golarion campaign setting or the Legacy of Fire Player's Guide for country of origin and character traits (the Player's Guide has some specific to Katapesh).

For those of you who like PrC's, there are several specific to Golarion and to Katapesh that will be available if you wish to be looking ahead and planning skill/feat selections.

Books to obtain/read (entirely optional):

Golarion Campaign Setting, Dark Markets: A Guide to Katapesh, Legacy of Fire Player's Guide, and any other of the Pathfinder Chronicles stuff.

Ryan, I believe there is room for another Deity in the Golarion pantheon. Unless you'd rather choose one of the published deities (there's not one that really fits well) I'm perfectly fine with you sticking with Lonrach. We'll make him a minor Dwarven deity who emerged during the Quest for Sky (the Dwarven migration from their lairs in the Darklands - Golarion's version of the Underdark - to the surface). If I get ambitious I may even do a full write up on him .

If you're looking for Katapesh in the CS, it's toward the bottom of the middle third of the map, due East of the Eye of Abendego (that great big permanent hurricane) on the Obari Ocean.

Saor Ghabháltas is on the western border, nestled in the pass through the Brazen Peaks northwest of Solku.

I like it, I like my clerics to be part of the "fringe" churches, they seem to have more impact that way. My first cleric was a worshipper of the Red knight in the FR setting, in 2e. I was one of only a handful of her church and a good part of my focus in the campaign was getting the church organized and set-up... good times.
