Re: Cosmic Hunters (OOC)
Claiming indigo for Woren.
I assume we have some room for crunch adjustments based on party composition before we begin? In my case it's mostly spell synergy and such. If someone has specific buff requests, I'm open to suggestions. Even personal range buffs can be shared.
Oh and I've got a pair of Spellguard Rings, whoever wears the bronze ring can be immune to a spell cast by Woren 3/day. Probably useful in a case when Selective Spell won't cut it.
Edit: I figure we're beginning with daily buff routines in effect already? If so, no ability damage for Woren.Last edited by watupwithdat; 2022-04-08 at 09:06 AM.

Re: Cosmic Hunters (OOC)
Ux Utanar will be in bolded gray.
@watupwithdat oooh you've got Spellguard Rings! One of my favourite items, and I happen to have a ring slot free! Can I have one? I'm bound to be in the thick of things if I'm doing my Knight job properly.
Also, here's the link to my sheet again, just for reference:
https://www.myth-weavers.com/sheet.html#id=2618030
@GM, it's usually a useful resource to have all the sheets available somewhere, in the first post or something. And thanks for having chosen my character, too
One last thing: I've played a few PbP games already both as player and GM, and I can't recommend enough this guide to handling, as a GM, such a game.Last edited by remetagross; 2022-04-08 at 04:14 AM.

Re: Cosmic Hunters (OOC)
1. Yeah this is a trivial roll-to-save, don't worry about handwaving it by saying you prepared buffs beforehand.
2. Go ahead and modify your sheet until I post again (won't be until all PCs post or too long passes).
3. Thanks for the link @remetagross, I think a lot of these observations apply to IRL tabletop except that people can't just ghost IRL games mid-session usually due to social mores. Gotta wait for between sessions to do it. :P It's good advice to keep all scenes active and mobile. It also confirms the suggestions to definitely use block initiatives. I'm going to do it by averaging and rounding. If you have an initiative-changer (not just an immediate action or whatever) then I might have to apply it to everyone.

Re: Cosmic Hunters (OOC)
Myriad will speak in "Bold Teal".
Oh, and I should note: Myriad wouldn't actually need the ruby key. Thanks to the 'Master of Doors' capstone ability of the SIlver Key class, she can make use of any magic door or portal she comes across as though she had the specific ability to do so. In particular, she can bypass arcane lock spells as though she herself had cast them, ignore glyphs of warding as though she knew the password (even glyphs that have no password), and even bypass the magic of a hold portal as though she could cast knock at will.
Her power even extends to portals created or maintained by magic. She can follow another character through a phase door, and can enter a Mordenkainen's magnificent mansion, a dragonmark demesne, and similar structures regardless of whether the caster designated her as one of the creatures able to enter.
A hyper-specific ability with only occasional usefulness in most games, but in 'The City of Doors'....? (^_^)

Re: Cosmic Hunters (OOC)
@Everyone How long should I wait for Dashain to show up? Should I ask another player from the interest check to join if they don't? Or should I just run as is with the current party?
@Geeksthenewsexy Good point, pocket 500 pp instead of holding onto the key.

Re: Cosmic Hunters (OOC)
Sorry, folks! I'm a bit late to the party, but I'm happy to proceed as we apparently did.
(Also, in case anyone wondered, Delja's sword looks roughly like a swagger stick right now.)Last edited by Metastachydium; 2022-04-11 at 01:29 PM.

Re: Cosmic Hunters (OOC)
Sorry about that, been pretty sick this past few days and forgot to even check if I was accepted to this (thanks, btw!).
Anyway, Tuld-Culain will speak in "Blue".

No worries, you're not that late since our posting rate is pretty lax. If you're still sick let us know and we can autopilot Tuld-Culain.

Re: Cosmic Hunters (OOC)
Alright mates I'm fine with bullheading through the paperwork if needed, I'm eager to get a charge attack on someone.
By the way, good catch for the potential of pickpocketing from the bariaur, I was far from thinking about thatLast edited by remetagross; 2022-04-13 at 04:25 AM.

That plan sounds lovely, but I'm afraid office clerk provide a pitiable amount of XP at our level, if any.

Re: Cosmic Hunters (OOC)
Woren's more fascinated with Sigil itself than what's going on with people at the moment, so just assume he's absentmindedly analyzing all the magic in the place for now, going along with whatever the rest are doing. If something that demands his attention happens, that would change. I'll squeeze in an IC post later.
I kinda assume nothing magical stands out more than anything else, but if there's something assume Woren's got Arcane Sight active (probably something else too, but I need to peruse spells to figure out what, and it's likely not too relevant right now.)Last edited by watupwithdat; 2022-04-13 at 04:17 PM.

*reminding self that the character is N/G and wouldn't just murder inconvenient people, stuff their body inside a haversack, take on their appearance, declare an early retirement to the guards, and 'quit' after approving everyone's applications*

Re: Cosmic Hunters (OOC)
Hey, if you'd like to change your minds, Delja has a portable hole, a lot of rope, chains, sacks and manacles and no moral qualms about stuffing clerks into the former (and possibly forgetting about not long afterwards)!

Re: Cosmic Hunters (OOC)
I'm not entirely sure I've exactly understood what the clerk just told us. In any case, let's head off to our original destination and worry about that sutff later (or never).

I'll choose to read it as "no discounts, no express delivery" and "if we don't use the portal, it's not like it even matters".
