[OOC] Constables of the 14th Ward

pathfinderq1, et al.: if there are other players who wish to make similar changes, then yes, now would be a good time. But we need to have at least some characters continue on from this point for consistency of the storyline, you understand.

 

[pathfinderq1]

Understood- as noted, this is still in the very hypothetical stage.

With that said, who is still here and sticking around? And who is new (player or character)? And, while we're at it- what, precisely, is an Illumian? (Since I don't have that sourcebook)

I'd guess Soulfetter, Darius, Brae, Alarion, and Sentran are still here; Raul is still here on some level, but not until we get him raised; one new player/character (archivist/conjurer), and one mention of a returning player with a new character (Fenris, character type unknown). Does that sound accurate? Even if I don't want to change characters, this sort of info will be helpful as we advance, since I may need to adjust Thea's focus a bit to keep the party in balance.

It looks to me like you have everything right, pathfinderq1, at least as much as you can know now. heh heh heh......

Illumians are from Races of Destiny. (p.51.) They are "a race created by sorcery. Through painstaking ritual, they have developed a mystical connection to the magic runes that make up their alphabet. Glowing sigils surround them, granting the power of an eldritch language made flesh." Sound weird enough for you? They don't actually sound to me like a separate "race" as that term is usually defined, but that's what the book says, and it's how they are treated in the rules. Go figure.....

Illumians "look like the humans who first learned the Ritual of Words Made Flesh - pale-skinned and somewhat taller than average." (RoD p. 52.)

Don't worry, you won't get rid of Alarion that easily!

I suppose if I had it to do over again I might play SoulFetter as a straight Barbarian. I've been somewhat frustrated at the lack of effectiveness of his Binder class, but I think that's a reflection of his level - once he gets to a level where he can bind two vestiges at once he won't feel so, um, limited.

It might also be that I'm used to playing the party skill monkey, and I deliberately went against my usual character type - playing a lumbering tank is taking some getting used to.

So I'm happy with SoulFetter - he's in for the long haul! (As long as he survives, of course . . .)

 

[Leif]

Helfdan - Great! Always happy to have Alarion around.

Mowgli - glad you're still happy with SoulFetter!

Kerlan - when you get a chance you are welcome to check out our players' wiki (and join it, if you wish) at: lauraliesummerhomecampaign.wikispaces.com . There's some additional information about Lauralie Summerhome, the world, and the game there. Everyone else is aready a member of the wiki.

[sblock=secret message for Rhun]Man, I just want to say that I feel kinda bad about what I said in your game about us "keeping Stonegod." Even if you agreed with me, it still wasn't my place to say anything. I don't want to leave this message in the OOC thread there, because it's just between us. And I don't mind so much if Scotley knows, especially since he knows me better than anyone else here and can probably guess that I'd say something like this.[/sblock]

Admittedly, the Binder levels, may not have made Soulfetter all that much deadlier, but he is much more interesting I think. You've done some good roleplay with that aspect of the class and now you've had a chance to go Conan on us. I don't think he'd be as much fun as a plain old barbarian.

 

[Leif]

KerlanRayne, since your expressed intention is to create an Illumian pc, and since we have not received notice of your request to join the players' wiki, I thought that I would pass on a little bit of information from the wiki about the Illumian race in the city of Lauralie Summerhome:

"Illumians are rare, but not unknown, in Lauralie Summerhome. Most are part of the Dusksproket Cabal above the city. (if you are interested in playing an Illumian the DM's will be happy to share more information on this with you). Or they could be Cabal-less Illumian's wandering the world in search of knowledge and a chance to found their own Cabal."

Let us know what you want to do in regard to a Cabal.
