00:47:14 <Avatar-> mekkis are you about
00:47:46 <Avatar-> you said we have to pick a crime and an ambition
00:48:03 <Avatar-> the pdf doesn't mention anything about an ambition
00:48:06 <Avatar-> what is it
00:59:39 boris has quit (Quit: You be good, see you tomorrow. I love you.)
01:00:01 <Avatar> ??
01:13:39 <Mekkis> I want your character to have some form of driving ambition or goal
01:14:42 <Avatar> doesn't the story accommodate that
01:17:50 <Mekkis> somewhat: if I have more information about your character, it helps me tailor it to the PCs
01:21:32 <Avatar> might need more info about the NPCs
01:21:47 <Avatar> my crime is high treason
01:34:55 Steven has quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
01:35:43 <Mekkis> falkes style?
01:38:32 <Avatar> I don't know what falkes style is
01:40:01 <Avatar> the big man in charge is going to have framed me
01:40:10 <Avatar> I didn't really commit high treason at all
01:40:18 <Avatar> but he's going to make me
01:41:06 <Avatar> witchcraft is going to be a part of it, but that is not really The Crime
01:43:09 <Mekkis> Avatar, it has to be a crime you've actually committed
01:43:51 <Avatar> yeah I will
01:43:59 <Avatar> I guess that happens before the game starts
01:44:02 <Mekkis> so you can't be framed
01:44:03 <Mekkis> yeah
01:44:19 <Mekkis> it's why you're locked up in a prison with 3 days to live
01:44:20 <Avatar> so he's framed me, I've been chased, and then I made an attempt on his life
01:44:28 <Avatar> if you need to get technical
01:44:36 <Avatar> my preference is not to have made the attempt yet and to make it later
01:44:46 <Avatar> but if you need me to, I've already made it
01:45:25 <Avatar> that's a bit less fun though
01:47:26 <Mekkis> you'll have plenty of opportunities to bring down the kingdom during the campaign, don't worry
01:47:38 <Mekkis> your ambition could be to bring it down even!
01:48:00 <Mekkis> and your act of treason was an unsuccessful attempt to blow up the palace, or something
01:52:22 <Mekkis> Avatar, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gunpowder_Plot
02:00:21 <Avatar> my ambition will be to bring it down
02:00:30 <Avatar> no I want someone dead
02:00:55 <Avatar> I don't really know since I don't know the campaign
02:01:35 <Avatar> I need someone who will send the guards after me for doing nothing wrong, and I'll be on the run and they catch me and have no reason to believe me
02:02:23 <Avatar> by the time the game starts, I'll want to start going on the offensive
02:02:26 <Mekkis> but you did something wrong
02:02:54 <Avatar> well I'll already be on the offensive then
02:03:01 <Mekkis> and something seriously wrong
02:03:12 <Avatar> that seems like a shame because that could be good character development to do ingame rather than before it starts
02:04:01 <Mekkis> you'd probably bitch about having no chance but to be caught
02:04:02 <Mekkis> :S
02:22:02 <Avatar> no I want to be caught
02:22:11 <Avatar> I will be building towarsd it
02:23:52 <Mekkis> want me to run a one-off session where you get caught for you?
02:27:45 Sachiru has quit (EOF from client)
02:32:45 <Avatar> not sure how much fun that will be
02:33:02 <Avatar> could try it
02:33:05 <Avatar> how long do you think it would go for
03:15:23 <Mekkis> hmmm.. maybe an hour or two
03:17:04 <Avatar> yeah okay why not
03:17:10 <Avatar> can I start with my familiar :P
03:17:20 <Mekkis> of course
03:17:37 <Mekkis> standard starting gold. Take the average, and give me an idea of what you're trying to do
03:18:01 <Avatar> I'll just take some sort of starter's pack I guess
03:18:20 <Avatar> start me off as having been discovered I'm a witch with the bad guy wanting to use me in some way
03:18:31 <Mekkis> ummm
03:18:34 <Mekkis> you are the bad guy
03:18:43 <Avatar> make another bad guy
03:18:54 <Mekkis> there are no other bad guys
03:19:03 <Avatar> there's always another bad guy
03:19:28 <Mekkis> the kingdom is at peace, after implementing a Lawful Good society that has successfully driven All Evil out
03:19:31 <Avatar> someone in power wants me to do something I won't want to do
03:19:42 <Avatar> it just has to be conflicting, not evil
03:20:22 <Avatar> have them want something I could give them but might not want to
03:20:27 <Mekkis> hmmm
03:20:35 <Mekkis> I'll have to come up with something
03:20:44 <Avatar> yeah
03:40:51 <boris> achoo

05:54:04 <Hydrazine> Hi
06:01:16 <Avatar> yo
06:01:25 <Avatar> I just found some potatoes that have been sprouting in my cupboard for months
06:02:12 <Hydrazine> Yay potatoes!
06:02:16 <Hydrazine> I'm in Aussieland!
06:02:44 <Avatar> how does it feel to be in the future
06:04:03 <Hydrazine> Kinda like how orange tastes.
06:04:10 <Hydrazine> the color, not the fruit.
06:13:27 <Mekkis> Avatar, plant them!
06:13:53 <Mekkis> Hydrazine, I'm starting a campaign
06:14:50 <Hydrazine> Orly?
06:15:01 <Mekkis> ja
06:15:11 <Hydrazine> What sort?
06:15:26 <Mekkis> Pathfinder
06:15:42 <Mekkis> It's Way of the Wicked, mainly because Avatar wanted it ;S
06:16:12 <Hydrazine> As in reg pathfinder and not society? Tell me more?
06:16:55 <Mekkis> You're living in a Lawful Good kingdom. All evil has been vanquished. You've committed a crime, sentenced, and condemned to death in three days.
06:17:25 <Mekkis> In the meantime, you're shackled and in a prison which is known for having noone escaping alive.
06:17:59 <Hydrazine> What sort of schedule? Or is that not solid yet?
06:19:11 <Mekkis> weekly, Saturday afternoon or evening
06:19:14 <Mekkis> AEDT
06:20:27 <Hydrazine> What level start and how many slots?
06:21:15 <Mekkis> level 1, up to 6
06:22:30 <Hydrazine> Not sure how busy exploring Australia I might be.
06:22:57 <Hydrazine> But I'll ask Tash.
06:24:20 <Mekkis> I'll probably start either last Saturday this year, or early next year
06:25:17 <Avatar> lol@mindflayers not socially acceptable
06:27:50 <Hydrazine> I think we're off camping around that time.
06:32:52 <Mekkis> I'm willing to work around other people's schedules, of course
06:34:00 <Avatar> when can you play hydra
06:40:18 <Hydrazine> No idea yet. We are currently internetless. I'm somewhere else tonight.
06:45:51 <Avatar> Mekkis: 1 crime + 1 trait?

06:59:50 <Mekkis> The trouble with this nice clean automated-war scenario is that nobody wants to play with us. The US can play that game, but who else can? The Israelis? They’re the only real combat-tested RPV-using army. And if it came to a US vs. Israel war, let’s face it: the US Congress would back Israel all the way, and the US’d have to surrender before a shot was fired.
07:14:15 <Steven> sup guys
07:14:39 <Mekkis> sup
07:14:39 <Avatar> steven roll up a character for way of the wicked
07:14:48 <Avatar> I won't ask again
07:15:01 <Steven> what is way of the wicked?
07:15:13 <Mekkis> an evil-themed adventure path
07:15:29 * Steven eyes grow wide
07:15:47 * Steven explodes in his pants...
07:16:07 <Avatar> yeah
07:16:10 <Avatar> it's like that
07:16:18 <Steven> when do we play?
07:17:09 <Steven> whats the party composition and point buy?
07:17:18 <Mekkis> saturday afternoons or evenings, unless people say otherwise
07:17:31 <Avatar> the directions are on the site
07:17:35 <Avatar> click Campaigns
07:17:37 <Steven> so my friday
07:17:39 <Avatar> then Way of the Wicked
07:17:39 <Mekkis> http://nl.ti4200.info/~mekkis/Way_of_the_wicked_handout-crop.pdf
07:17:45 <Avatar> that link is on there too
07:17:56 <Mekkis> I should see what you've done
07:19:19 <Steven> 25point buy or the roll method?
07:19:35 <Mekkis> neither
07:19:42 <Avatar> pick one score for 18, one for 8, and then roll 1d10+7 four times and apply them to the remaining scores in order
07:19:54 <Steven> yeah... the roll method in the guide
07:20:07 <Avatar> so if you choose int and str respectively, the first roll goes onto dex, second onto con, third onto wis, last onto cha
07:21:00 <Mekkis> I should probably houserule something that prevents 8 con, but I'll think about that later
07:21:39 <Steven> yeah.... im not digging this method.... but fuck it lets go with
07:22:13 <Steven> wis as focus
07:22:50 <Steven> dex as foible
07:23:01 <Steven> !roll 4d10
07:23:03 <dicebot> Steven, 4d10: [4d10=1,9,8,8] 26
07:23:37 <Steven> so 8/8/16/15/18/15
07:23:44 <Mekkis> str 9 dex 8 con 16 int 15 wis 18 cha 15
07:23:52 <Mekkis> sorry str 8
07:27:21 <Steven> any races you dont want mekkis?
07:28:34 <Mekkis> what race do you have in mind?
07:29:01 <Mekkis> I'm pretty open: I'll allow drow for instance... stay clear of full orc...
07:29:16 <Steven> nah, was thinking vishkanyas
07:29:26 <Steven> but then i screwed up and forgot they - wis
07:32:08 <Mekkis> put it this way, I'll let you ask for anything noncore as long as you don't bitch when I say no
07:32:35 <Steven> yeah vishkanyas are non core... their big thing is poison blood
07:32:46 <Steven> im looking at other races now
07:36:17 <Avatar> Mekkis: you said core races only !
07:38:56 <Mekkis> Avatar, because I know you bitch when I say no
07:41:28 <Avatar> I didn't even want to pick a non core race
07:41:29 <Avatar> !
07:43:42 <Mekkis> no harm done then!
07:44:51 <Steven> how bout golarion warforged? lol
07:45:32 <Mekkis> no
07:45:47 <Steven> hahahah
07:47:45 <Steven> brothers making a donation, moms making a donation, dads making a donation to the toys for tots PFS event im running this saturday
07:47:47 <Steven> WOOT WOOT
07:49:44 <Mekkis> you know that picture of Jace that's on the box topper of RTR boxes?
07:49:55 <Steven> yeah
07:50:24 <Mekkis> when I see it, half of me goes "That cloak looks awfully impractical"
07:50:32 <Mekkis> the other half goes "Where can I get one"
07:58:05 <Steven> Alright, I would like to be a Changeling
07:59:09 <Mekkis> which book's that in?
07:59:23 <Steven> ARG
08:02:00 <Mekkis> I don't have that
08:02:19 <Steven> 2 wis, 2 cha, -2 con
08:02:32 <Mekkis> disguise self at will, like in 3.5?
08:02:50 <Steven> no
08:04:44 <Steven> they get claws
08:04:44 <Steven> 1 nat armor
08:04:47 <Steven> darkvision
08:04:58 <Steven> and a trait based on what kind of hag was their mother
08:05:35 <Mekkis> are they typically accepted into human society?
08:05:40 <Steven> Hulking Changeling (Annis Hag): The changeling gains a +1 racial bonus on melee damage. Green Widow (Green Hag): The changeling gains a +2 racial bonus on Bluff checks against creatures that are sexually attracted to her. Sea Lungs (Sea Hag): The changeling may hold her breath for a number of rounds equal to three times her Constitution before she risks drown
08:06:13 <Steven> eh.......
08:06:25 <Steven> sorta
08:06:55 <Steven> let me read the bio again
08:07:37 <Steven> Typically tall, slender, dark haired, and attractive, changelings otherwise resemble their fathers’ race. They are always female, and their mismatched colored eyes and abnormally pale skin hint at their true heritage.
08:07:48 <Steven> At puberty, changelings receive “the call,” a hypnotic spiritual voice that beckons them to travel and discover their true origins.
08:07:56 <Steven> Changelings who ignore this call choose their own destiny; those who heed it discover their “mother” and may come into great power by transforming into hags themselves.
08:08:16 <Steven> damn it, didn't paste the first one
08:08:18 <Steven> Changelings are the offspring of hags and their lovers taken through magic or madness. Dropped off on doorsteps of prospective foster parents, changelings are raised by strangers.
08:08:33 <Mekkis> oh
08:08:35 <Mekkis> THEM
08:08:35 <Mekkis> no
08:08:48 <Steven> not evil enough for you?
08:10:18 <Mekkis> not socially acceptable enough
08:10:42 <Steven> ........
08:11:01 <Steven> tall, slender, dark haired and attractive with a charisma of 17 isnt socially acceptable?
08:11:18 <Steven> i gotta meet the women you hang out with mekkis
08:11:23 <Steven> they must be insane
08:12:04 <Mekkis> mindflayers have charisma of 25. They're not socially acceptable
08:18:39 <Steven> I am not understanding your argument.... A tall, slender, dark haired, pale skinned woman with mismatched color eyes is not socially acceptable... she looks nearly human. She is NOT a monsterous looking humanoid.
08:18:44 <Steven> http://www.google.com/imgres?hl=en&safe=off&sa=X&tbo=d&biw=1454&bih=704&tbm=isch&tbnid=LqS_6QZmCnqcUM:&imgrefurl=http://www.roleplaygateway.com/roleplay/atherea-age-of-peace/characters/luna-duskstalker&docid=6n1KPzYAERGGUM&imgurl=http://inspimo.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/Healing_Girl_by_kjun1-thumb.jpg&w=550&h=412&ei=4dTJUNa5KuiWiQLxiIDQCg&zoom=1&iact=hc&
08:18:47 <Steven> only with black hair
08:34:11 <Steven> im making it just human i guess
08:49:00 <Mekkis> yeah
