OoC Thread - Strife in Sokara - A solo game for Brother Shatterstone

[Jarval]

Is the way I'm playing Hestia and Ged OK with you? I'm trying to RP them like they were my own PCs, but I'm aware that this might lead to a certain degree of "scene-stealing" from Brystasia. It's not really become an issue yet, but I am aware that (Hestia in particular) is taking quite a lot of initiative of her own (detecting magic, keeping the needle from the trap, etc...).

I didn't realize that's what Hestia cast but no I see no issues with how things are going... (Maybe a short OOC message when they do cast a spell or something.)

But besides that there companions not servants, and I wouldn’t be having as much fun if they didn’t act like normal people.

If you haven’t noticed, Brystasia consults them on nearly ever decision cause she honesty cares about their opinions.

Good idea

Great, that's pretty much what I thought you thought I'll carry on as we are, then!

On something of a tangent, my posting schedule may be a touch hit-and-miss for the next couple of weeks. I've got three university assignments due over the next three weeks, and I've just recently found myself a job. On the plus side, job = money (once I get paid) = Complete Divine

I knew, trust me there are few things in the PbP area that I don't know about... To be honest I think your crazy to want to DM 4 gestalt sorcerers but I know there also missing out on a hell of a dm.

As for complete divine, mine still has not being made it out of the Amazon warehouse... To be hones this might be the last set of books I'll preorder from them but from what I seen there’s nothing but coolness.

Off to post IC.

You do keep your ear to the ground, that's for sure What I'd really like to see someone do is run a Buffy the Vampire Slayer game, using the Eden Unisystem rules here on EN World, but there doesn't seem to be an immense amount of enthusiasm for it... :\

Why thank you To be honest, I've always been interested in giving the Adventure Path modules a go at some point, and the gestalt rules were really the icing on the cake That, or it's my growing insanity speaking...

Well, I'm not going to be paid for about a month, so I'm not going to be getting my hands on a copy for a few weeks yet. From what I've read about it, it sounds like there's going to be a lot of useful stuff for this game in it. There are a couple of healing feats in particular that seem well suited to Hestia and Ged.

Trust me it's mostly wasted time that I can never get back so I recommend people have lives and such.

There is no doubting this board is very pro d20, and rightfully so it's a D&D board primarily and a RPG second. I'll ask around but you might want to drop a post in the gamer seeking gamer section.

You’re the only DM I know that is pro gestalt so you must be going insane. Please behave, I have no desire to know how long it would take for you to make your posts with only your nose cause your in a straight jacket.

Damn, that does suck, Amazon still hasn't mailed mine but if I see anything befitting are level when it gets here I will be sure to make a mentioning of it.

I ponders rather or not the door is still locked.

Even with the amount of time I spend hanging around here, I still manage to miss the occasional interesting-looking game. There's a new Greyhawk one being set up that looked like it had got a very promising concept, but by the time I'd got to the thread, there were already about 11 or 12 applicants...

I was in a D20 Modern Buffy game about a year ago. It was going really rather well until we lost some of our players... Hold on, I'll see if I can dig up the thread.

Qute smoe timmmme, I'd imagne...

Yeah, the Gestalt thing is one of those sure signs of madness I do like the Gestalt rules a lot. They give people a chance to play around with combinations they'd never do with multiclassing, and that's a good thing in my book.

Great.

Ah, you'll just have to try it and see. Not that I'm urging you to touch the magical door of death again or anything, ooooh no...

My Complete Divine came in and I can honestly say that I'm very happy with what I see.

About every PrC could be of use for the three heroes we have... but I will try to break it down to the ones that need the fewer amounts of changes.

PrC
Brystasia; Pious Templar is the one that really catches my eye.

Hestia, was the hard one, but the improved healing of the Radiant Servant of Pelor is like a nice fit.

Ged, is by far the easiest. There’s a ton of PrC that would work wonderfully for him. Divine Crusader, and the Shining Blade of Heironeous.

Feats, let me just put it this way I hope the three heroes counties to work upon there Charisma as the number of divine feats has double, or tripled.

There are divine relics, which require devoted faith.

There are also faith feats that work on a faith point system... You get points to be faithful and you can use points to access these feats.

Variant Undead rules which makes a cleric able to damage undead and not just hold them at bay...

All in all I'm quite happy with this book.

You know that job I've mentioned? It's becoming a time consuming nuisance :\ As a result of it and my university study, I'm going to have be away from EN World until the 12th of June.

Sorry to put yet another interruption into the flow of the game. Normally I'd try to avoid doing this again so soon, but a combination of the job and my Uni work is filling up almost every hour of the day. Needless to say, I'm not a tremendously happy bunny about it all, but it can't be helped

Anyway, see you in about two weeks time (hopefully plus a copy of the Complete Divine ), and if there's anything you need to get in touch with me about, you can try e-mailing me. I should be checking it every day or two, so you should get a reply (abeit not all that prompt).

Take your time and enjoy the work... You can always consider it a break from me.
