Malvoisin's Slumbering Tsar Saga Discussion [PFRPG]

[Malvoisin]

I know what you mean, as I have a raging half-orc barbarian. I do, however, have a Half-ELF Barbarian character all written up that I am debating on switching out in this game. It is SOOOOO tempting to replace Krool with a half-elf barbarian.

It's fine if you want to do that, Fangor. Just let me know soon, I'm hoping to get the IC thread rolling early next week.

I will stick with Krool for now. If he dies, then at least I have another concept waiting to come into play.

I think we should all have some back-ups.

DH I have some bad news, for both of our characters. A +1 holy weapon is the equivalent to a +3 weapon. Thus 18,000 gp base price, beyond our ability to afford at this level.

The best magical weapon any of us should be able to afford is a +2 (including magical properties).

Hrmmm...I'll go over it in a few.

*EDIT: I'll just take the Holy off and that'll free up 8k gp for me and I'll go shopping again. I usually houserule that if you by a magic weapon you don't have to pay the initial magical fee...my bad. That was something that always bothered me.

I think we should all have some back-ups.

It's not a bad thought to have some ideas in mind.

That said, I hope you all will consider raising/resurrecting dead PCs as resources allow. Sometimes plausibly introducing brand new characters can be a challenge. In any case, we'll see how things go, and exactly how many PC deaths we will face.

I guess I should keep some funds in reserve then. Was wondering if I should spend the remainder 2k I have. Although, 10k in funds is nothing that we would likely have with us.

Will this setting enable us to have time and means to purchase magical items as we level up? Will the ability to increase our own magical items with new properties/enhancements be available? I would like to save up 6k in funds to get my belt of strength to add the +2 con ability in the future.

Will anyone here be looking to make magical items? I doubt it, but doesn't hurt to ask!

EDIT - one last question. Hippogriff Mounts - Doesn't that sounds SO tempting?!? For 600gold, get a flying mount... Not likely that they are even available or an option, but this is the first I have noticed them in the goods and services section, so had me wondering.

 

[Malvoisin]

The opportunities to create/upgrade your own magical items will probably be slim. You will have access to purchase some things, but The Camp isn't exactly a thriving metropolis with magical item shops on every corner. You'll have to rely a lot on loot from defeating enemies (which are plentiful). If there's something specific you really, really want I might be nice enough to make sure you find one.

I'm leaning right now toward getting the IC thread launched Tuesday (or perhaps even late Monday night). Will anyone have issues with getting final character sheet details ironed out by then?
