CELTRICIA- Steel Isle Online Dungeon crawl

[Nomadic]

Yea toden get's half of kellik's share. Kellik respects him greatly.

[LordVreeg]

Toden is going to be getting a kit of restorative with the money from his church...

[LordVreeg]

As an update,
The online group has 3 PCs and 4 pregens right now, as of the end of Session 18 last night.  

That means anytime anyone wants to drop in and pick up a pregen to get their feet wet is welcome to do so.  

Wurnick, Rampan the Red, Simon, and now Cameleye can be played by guests if they would like.

I have not been able to keep up on the postings , though I am still slogging through them  The group has acually made it back to Steel Isle town once and has just left again back to the Vexchian Ruins of Venolvia.

[Nomadic]

Well if Kellik dies I am totally gonna play Toden :P

[LordVreeg]

That I want to see...

Anyone want to take a try at a basic schematic for Steel ISle town, a rough map?

[TheMeanestGuest]

I've never done an urban map before. I'd be willing to try, however.

Unless of course Nomadic would like to.

I still owe you an urban map, remember.

[Llum]

I know that you mentioned using RP tools at one point Vreeg, I found something similar (well isomage showed me) when we were discussing virtual table-tops.

Game Table is the name. It's quite neat.

[LordVreeg]

I will take a look tonight.

Cesuat's player (joe, formerly Cucino's player) is fixing my graphics card.

[LordVreeg]

Steel Isle group plays tonight, IRC #Celricia, 8:30pm

[LordVreeg]

and tomorrow night,8:30.  I do have 4 pregen character's playing, so we'd love one more to bring us to 4 players...

[LordVreeg]

OK.  that was fun.
Last night was session 21, an out-and-out brawl with some Cultists of the Dark Way (all in ancient Venovian Chain mail, no less...) in a stockade just outside the main ruins area in a clearing North and west of the main Vexchian area.  The group has already been in and out once, and is decently armed and armored now, So the 5 warriors and the Priest of the Dark one were not a match for the explorers.  
Max, in particular, OWNED some folks in the fight, Shamsheer lopping off limbs and spraying blood everywhere, amnd Kellik attacking 3 times for everyone elses one attacks.
Then, Hamish Haldane rolled a critical success on his appraisal roll, on a Flail Nacdilis [note=Nacdilis]  Nacdilis, Silverwood Omwo~, "Bell of Death"...a three headed light flail with small bells in each head and rounded blunts rivets on each head.  Fine chains connect each slightly oblong head, creating a very free movement.  The Nacdilis flail is a weapon template as a masterwork creattion (common in the very uncommon world of magic items...)  Hamish was able to appraise the magic due to the fact this type of weapon is a historical know curiousity.[/note]  21 sessions in, and a real magic weapon...the group was thrilled, not to mention the priest's spellbook.

And as we played, LC was learning the ropes of Guildschool character creation.  Since Llum, TMG and Nomadic are up to about 30 created characters between them, I just stuck my nose in once in a while.
Character creation is something I believe is fun in lots of systems, and in some ways, those differences actually make it more fun.
But I've watched players make chacter's for decades...and there is something about approachuing a symmety for the dice creating a certain template that is almost a vyoyage of discovery, followed by trhe social rolls and the item rolls...(which help flesh out the character...I make the PC's describe why they have tose items..)  
I believe there is a reason the guys have made so many characters for the fun of it, just like all my live players do...

Character generation is coming along well-- all that's left at this point, I think, is cleanup. I need to spend some cash on equipment (but I can't seem to find that sort of thing on the wiki, unfortunately), and I need to do some last-minute math regarding skills (which is really going to mostly involve wrestling with dropdowns until I understand them without you guys' handholding me through the process). At any rate, all the EXP has been spent, and all of the actual decision-making (except for choosing equipment) has been finished.

Also, maybe a small bit of tidying up in terms of story, but that's probably all set, really. Vreeg seems fond of my concept, so that's encouraging, and we've got a convenient way for me to meet up with the rest of the group all figured out

[Llum]

Welcome aboard LC. Most of the stock weapons/armor prices can be found on the weapon/armor pages themselves.

I have a Excel file that has all the armor (with every piece) with prices attached. So I can hit you up with a link or something if you want.

Just a reminder, armor is now a "bits and pieces" system. So you have a glove slot, a neck slot, chest slot, upper leg slot etc.. usually with two or three different pieces to choose from per slot. It's a middling pain to set up, but once it is, it's good to go.

Weapons are the same deal, I also have an Excel file with all the weapons and prices and what not.

Anything else, for special stuff that aren't weapons and armor, like herbs, poisons, misc stuff talk to Vreeg. He's usually around and pretty decent with pricing (unless it's a modified Sax, then the price is just silly :P)

[Nomadic]

Actually for armor you can choose to use the old single piece system or the new bits and pieces system. Whichever one you like more.
