Question!
Does extra-dimensional space protect the contents from exposure to the elements, such as water or fireballs? (yes, Fireballs is an element)

VonDoom

Yes. They're on a different plane.

Of course, if the accessing container gets destroyed, THEN you have a problem.
Now this is the Law of the Jungle-
as old and as true as the sky;
And the Wolf that shall keep it may  prosper,
but the Wolf that shall break it must die.

Which is where that fireball becomes a bit nasty as you watch your handy haversack or bag of holding burn... muhahaha

I remember a AD&D 2nd ed. game many, many years ago inwhich one of our players had a dwarf who took greed to a whole new level. He had a bag of holding, and seemed to never have any coinage, no matter what we got as loot, when it came time to replace things, get rooms in an inn, etc, his donations to a party fund was always a lot more coming out than going in. The players knew this, the characters knew this, but ultimately couldn't do anything about it. The two rules that my games live by (You don't steal from companions, and you don't try to kill companions) pretty much meant that we just forced him to pay for his own stuff... which somehow he always managed to not do.

The DM got annoyed about this after several months and one night, had a thief steal the bag of holding, along with the thousands in gold, gems and general loot that the dwarf had snuck in over the adventure. The dwarf gave chase, but an accidental fireball from our wizard cooked the thief, and the bag as we all tried to stop him... No more gold, no more gems, no more "borrowed" food from inns and so on. Admittedly, at the time, I didn't think that a fireball could harm a bag-of-holding, but I was wrong. I actually felt bad for turning the greedy bastard into a palper... for a few minutes.

The dwarf, of course, found the bag of holding after his backpack, stuffed to bursting with gold coins, dropped the bag one time too many and the sides split out of it... on a city street... so what little he recovered went into buying a very expensive bag of holding... which got stolen and burned. Did the dwarf learn a lesson? What do you think? ;)

Yes, I really am blind.
Being Literate is the ability to read and understand a language. When you ask for literate, what you are looking for is Verbosity, which is the ability to use lots of words without actually saying very much... like politicians. I consider myself both literate and verbose.

Dynamod

hmm yeah I don't think I'll be bringing my whole supply of black powder in the danger zone... maybe have a pack animal Carry it.

well that is if I getto play gunslinger. my other character idea was the play a Golem like brawler. the imagery of a non human creature fighting until its body parts start breaking down is really evoking.

Poor horse... one flaming fart and all you'll find is some burning glue on the ground.

How much powder are you expecting to need? A couple of pounds should do you for weeks. The average load for a breach loading pistol is only about an ounce, usually less.

well dwarves only care about metal and Rare stones. that's why they never bathe... probably deserved it, but I doubt he learned a lesson.

Well, if i happen to be on equal ground as masaki in the heirarchy, i  think his holding my supplies would cause problems, totem pole wise. If not, then that would be fine too :3c kobold gear is half weight i believe

well, considering the a quiver holds 30 arrows usually... I need enough power for at least that many regular bullets, plus any specialty cartridges I plan to carry,and that's just for the first excursion.if we make this a regular thing I'll need to keep a supply of black powder on hand for when I run low. The stuff isn't exactly common. a keg carries a hundred doses though.

be right back going to go eat and then head home and once I'm on my computer I'll do some real updates.

Trying to figure a 'why' for her presence. Possibly as the hand of a lord of some sort who is looking for a way to influence the consortiums or such? Or just a bored dilettante looking for adventure. FYI wasn't sure if Rich Parents was kosher so haven't added it in yet.

+Kassey's Character Sheet+
If someone could check Kassey's sheet (I'm still making the transition from 3.5), I'd really appreciate it

Well looking it over heres a few things to start with.

- Your Shield and your armor aren't fully filled out the Shield is missing the max dex and speed and the armor is missing speed (even if they don't change it messes with the sheet a tad in other places if not filled out like for example your AC is 1 short because the dex isnt being read.)

- Your armor type would be considered Light also changes some things on the sheet

- you have 5 skill points over what you can have for your class. 2 +int = 4 + 1 for fast learner so 5 the fast learner counts for your favored class

- (not really wrong but some advice) might want to spend a few more of your gold on things like wands or something like that. Wands can be bought via per charge at 15 gp X Spell level X caster level (ie for a Sorcerer to make a wand of fireball its 15 x 3 x 6 or 270 gp per charge)

You know if you have access to the Ultimate Equipment guide, there are two very nice bandoliers for gunslingers. the benefitial and endless bandoliers

Blinkin

Making some minor edits to the character sheet, I'll PM the updated and completed sheet tonight. I think it's all correct, but if anything jumps out, let me know.

I thought it would be Class Base of 2 + Intellect Modifier of 2 + Human Racial Trait Skilled for 1 + Favoured Class (with Fast Learner) for 1 (plus 1 HP) = 6 Skill ranks per level?


Thanks for your comments, I'll fix the sheet once I've woken up properly :-)

Fighter gets: 2 skill points per level:
Int mod (13-14) gets you 2 skill points
Human gets you 1 skill point
Fast Learner gets you the option of 1 skill point (or 1 favored class feature+1 skill point, 1 skill point and 1 HP or 1 HP and 1 feature)

S... 2+2+1+1=6 per level.

I didn't count the skill points spent, just offering the correct math. I love Fast Learner. :)

And, if you can tell me where this quote comes from, I'll give you a lollipop!

The game's up, Scarlet. There are no more bullets left in that gun.

"Oh, come on, you don't think I'm gonna fall for that old trick? "

"It's not a trick. There was one shot at Mr. Boddy in the Study; two for the chandelier; two at the Lounge door and one for the singing telegram. "

"That's not six. "

"One plus two plus two plus one. "

"Uh-uh, there was only one shot that got the chandelier. That's one plus two plus *one* plus one. "

"Even if you were right, that would be one plus one plus two plus one, not one plus *two* plus one plus one. "

" Okay, fine. One plus two plus one... Shut up! The point is, there is one bullet left in this gun and guess who's gonna get it! "

Oh yeah your right I forgot about the Skilled trait... so never mind on the skills part the other one is a quick fix other than that it looks good... I'm not sure about the spells though cause I'm not sure if you get the extra 10 spells like i do.

I think clerics get to choose from all the spells each day they don't have restrictions to what is considered a known spell and what is not. but dont quote me on that.

Seems like everyone has taken care of each others queries, so great teamwork everyone!  I'll be letting the recruitment period go on for a few more days, say up to Friday, before making final decisions regarding character choices.

Whilst any character is fine for this one shot adventure, it should be noted that if we do go on for a campaign, I'd recommend humanoid characters (or those who can pass for one), simply because they'll be the one's to get the most out of it (mainly because it's what I'm most familiar with).

Quote from: Dynamod on January 26, 2015, 09:17:48 PM
Purple, how do you feel about firearms? can I draw up a bushwacker? they seem to be a good blend of nervous bravery a clanless kobold would need to become an adventurer.
Gunslingers are fine, therefore Bushwackers are fine as well, Dynamod - go right ahead!

Almost every one of my human PCs in PFS has it along with Ecletic for the multiclassers among them.

And.. a clue reference.. yay!

I was curious if this game was looking for more players :0 I would very much like to play a monk in this game.

As mentioned I'm going to choose 5 characters by Friday for this game, so feel free to come up with one to put up that I can take a look over!

LSWSjr

So potentially we have a tank, some melee and ranged DPT, a caster and a healer.  We could use some stealth, but the Monk should be able to handle that :-)

Here's my application in progress, character sheet except for gear: http://www.myth-weavers.com/sheetview.php?sheetid=1109316

Feasts-On-The-White's-Liver "Vivian DeWheatley"
Female Mermaid Heavy Metal Chaotic Neutral BloodRager

Description: A mermaid with the upper body of an amazon warrioress and a long, almost serpentine tail. On land she usually carries herself between six to seven feet tall. She wears a royal-looking diadem upon her head and wields a trident with three wickedly sharp points. Her voice is clear, melodious and authoritative, with a singing voice to make a siren envious.

Personality: Cynical, easily angered, and used to getting her way. But behind that exterior is an extremely driven and calculating princess-in-exile, who is slowly setting pieces into motion as part of a master plan to serve revenge, very cold.

Background: Born (or hatched?) to the chief of a tribe of mermaid barbarians, she proved her ferocity and martial prowess at a young age. At her coming-of-age ceremony she killed a great white shark and devoured its liver, an impressive task that earned her the name "Feasts-On-The-White's-Liver". At the same time she possessed a singing voice that few mortals, merfolk or otherwise, could match. Skilled in both the ways of war and peace and considered by all her subjects to be the herald of a coming golden age for her tribe, she never had the chance to inherit her birthright as the rightful heir to the chiefdom of her tribe. On the night of a sacred feast, a raiding part of Sahuagin launched a cowardly raid on her tribe, either killing or enslaving all the mermaids in the tribe except for her - and she herself only escaped a similar fate thanks to the sacrifices of her most faithful friends and bodyguards with whom she had grown up with.

Homeless, tribeless and friendless, she formed a plan to wreak vengeance upon the Sahuagin, but she knew she would only be able to do it with lots of help. So she took on the dangerous life of an adventurer, and the name of "Vivian DeWheatley" as a corruption of her true name, to find the fame and fortune she would need to return to the waters of her birthplace with an army at her back to bring long-delayed an long-deserved justice upon her old foes. The sea was too dangerous for her to seek her fortune there, her status as the last of her tribe making her an even greater prize for the evil hunters eager to get their webbed hands on her, forcing her to take up her travels upon dry land. She still sings her songs in the dark watches of the night, singing of the sorrows and remembrances of friends and family lost, to carry over the winds to wherever their spirits now dwell.
