February 2008: Curse of the Crimson Throne Discussion

[CanadienneBacon]

Howdy- just checkup' in. Good to see stonegod on board. Gotta run--husband is making fun of me for using my iPhone to check a d&d website during the superbowl.

But may I just say that Indiana is a cold, cold place. Brrrr!

What, Indiana in February's a little bit chillier than Hawaii? You don't say!

Seriously though, it's nice to hear from you, CB. Glad you made the trip safely.

Okay, folks...as promised, the recruiting thread for the sixth and final spot in this game has just gone live. Head on over there, if you're still interested in this one.

To the five players who are already on board, it's very important to me that the sixth player fits well with the rest of the group. To that end, I'm quite interested in your thoughts and opinions about the concepts as they come in. Please feel free to post your thoughts on either thread. Alternatively, if you feel like having a more private discussion, I can be e-mailed at:

Thanks!

I don't see Erekose as stepping on my toes with regard to the beguiled concept he tossed up. Corrine and Girri could easily know one another, both of 'em being fortune teller charlatans and all.

Still, what class is the group short on? Wizard? Rogue?

We've got

Canadienne Bacon as Girri, a Human (Varisian) Cleric of Pharasma
Rhun as Gadeann Fayne, a Human (Shoanti) Duskblade
Voadam as an unnamed Human (Chelaxian) Swahbuckler
stonegod as Coldan Ciandra, a Human Knight (former Hellknight)
Legildur as an unnamed Human Wizard (Diviner specialist)

So we have our wizard (Legildur), our cleric (CB), our tanks (Stonegod, Rhun), our face (Voadam),

Niches for scout/trapspringer as well as missile expert or 2nd healer would complement well IMO.

Thanks, Voadam. I couldn't have said it any better myself!

Moved.

I'm waiting for the Khorvosa PG before developing my swashbuckler further.

Ditto. Coldan may be an ex-member of one of the other military groups as appropriate, etc.

Absolutely, I realized from the get-go that we wouldn't be able to complete character sheets (backgrounds, especially) until the Player's Guide gets released. That's why I haven't been brow-beating everyone about finishing them.

Fact is, there is some new information on Paizo's blog (well, a few days old now) regarding a common antagonist who serves as the adventure's hook for bringing the party together. I was going to wait until the full roster of players is set to bring it up, but if any of you feel like heading over there early to check it out, be my guest! I presume this idea will also be fleshed out in further detail by the PG.
