Diplomatic Immunity OOC: The Third

[Rystil Arden]

Yeah, we have a more usuall GM, but he needs a break on occasion, and I stepped up this time.

No clue what we're up for next. I've heard anything from Darwin's World (cool post apoc setting), to Pendragon (old ed, pregens, realy didn't interest me too much, but we'll see), to others running a D&D game of some kind. I'd like to play in a FtF Eberron, particularly because it seems most of my online Eberron games seem slated to die (at least the one's I'm playing in)

BTW, given Vasha wants to share her spell, and therefore her love, with the world, how exactly would she go about introducing her spell into the general populace? I don't think she can scribe scrolls, so she'd probably have to teach someone and have them scribe a few?

Yep, she'd teach it to someone and have that person scribe scrolls.

Given they'd then be able to sell it, I wonder if she could make money off of that?

Of course, they'd probably try to charge her instead

Lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky, Bront...my FtF group only plays once a month, and I think we've manage a whole 4 sessions for the year (assuming we manage to have one either this weekend or the next--which won't be the full group as someone was unavailable all month).

My current campaign has been running for a very long time, pretty close to the start of 3rd Edition I think (due to the very irregular schedule above), and doesn't look like ending anytime soon. They're all of 12th-level.

During the summer, my group of buddies from when we started playing meets nearly every week. We have one campaign that we usually don't play that started in 2nd edition Player's Option and was converted to 3.0+Epic--the second big campaign we did. The players are 22nd level, which they actually earned under the grueling XP progression from 2e

If she teaches them for free, they might make scrolls and sell them to other people for no charge, but if she orders them, ya, she has to pay. Though she can probably work out one scroll for free in exchange for the spell.

Well, we used to meet every friday, which turned into every other, but I can't make that. For a while, I had 2 groups, one every other friday, one every other sunday.

I'd like to do a second every other sunday thing, but time and availability is always an issue.

We used to meet every Saturday, which went to every 2nd Saturday, and over the last couple of years slipped out to about once a month due to scheduling problems.

Oh, good. She needs a scroll for Bertram. (I guess she could teach him, but something about 8 hours alone to learn a massage spell from a nymph might make his fiance uncomfortable)

Scheduling wasn't as much an issue as the GF not wanting to be out of luck every friday when I only got 2 days off, particularly when she didn't get the weekend off herself. I ended up having Fridays one week, Sundays the other week, and that worked well in general.

Now that I'm on my new schedule, and we have 2 days off togeather, it might be a bit better if I picked up a second sunday game.

But yeah, scheduling can be complicated, particularly if you don't occasionaly get an influx of new players.

The secret is to get her to join your group so she wants you to have it every week

Well that's become an issue too, since one of our players got married (his wife, GF at the time, played with us for a while, but ended up dropping out after about 6 months).

Our group has actually shrunk recently due to losing a player to MMORPG's as well...that was sad. You're right though it does get harder as the group shrinks...we used to have 7 players until they finished university, got married, and moved all around the state or interstate for work.

She's not a gamer
