Nope! I'll try and bump it tomorrow, a little later in the day when I suspect there's more traffic.

In reply to A Malign Presence (msg # 263):

Good idea. Could also be the time of year, lots of people away.

I forgot I posted this ad on a Tuesday, so I can't bump until tomorrow! I'm not sure when the optimal time is, but I figure roughly US afternoon tomorrow?

In the meantime, I'm continuing work on bestiary. Check it out: I'm separating it into Magical Creatures, Undead, Spirits, Constructs, Animals and the Dire, Dragons, Mounts, and Soldiers, Raiders and Hirelings.

Magical Creatures: Weird things that didn't exist before that now exist due to magic. Please check out changelings, hidden folk and doppleganger in particular. They have big setting/world implications and are things Lira and Oliver should likely be aware of!

Undead: Dead things brought back to life, a dungeon crawler staple for obvious reasons with tons of real life folklore to back it up.

Spirits: If you're not sure if it's a magical creature or undead, it probably belongs here. Encompassing both magical "force of nature" type things and actual ghosts, samodiva have been moved here.

Animals and Dire: Probably my cleverest bestiary idea if I do say so myself, I'm going to crib numerous animal stat blocks and create a dire template: something like +2 HD, increase attack dice by one die.

Dragon: Harry Potter style dragons. Natural creatures because I fucking say so, damn it.

Mounts: Sensible place for stat blocks for horses, gryphons, maybe a couple others. Hippogriffs?

Soldiers, Raiders and Hirelings: Human opponents or allies will divided into easy Recruit / Grenadier / Dragoon / Officer / Commander stat blocks. Hirelings will generally be available at only recruit and grenadier level. Different types of soldiers or nationalities (ie. - a Gilded Hussar versus a Baboti horse archer) would be differentiated by equipment, not necessarily their stat blocks.

Somewhere between 4 and 6, catch people home from work ? The site is pretty much unusable on a phone or at least for me so laptop all the way.

Should I write up Lira and Oliver leaving the village or are you wanting to wait for new people ? Thanks.

Let's wait for new players. The adventure hook I have planned will start in Fiwood.

I bumped the ad at what I hoped was primetime, but still nothing. I think most people aren't interested in playtesting someone else's game, they'd rather play something they've read and are into.

In reply to A Malign Presence (msg # 268):

No problem. Well I think I have nearly exhausted possible games to recruit in so hopefully something comes up from your ad or the shout outs I sent off.

I will probably bump one more time this week, and if that fails, I will roll up some NPCs and we can commence.

In reply to A Malign Presence (msg # 270):

Great, don't really know whats going on with recruitment. Perhaps its just that time of year.

So I bumped again today and got a couple bites! Hopefully we'll have a player or two join. Stay tuned.

In reply to A Malign Presence (msg # 272):

That is good news. Fingers crossed.

Sorry for the delay, I had some unexpected RL stuff come up this week. Also PMing potential players.

It looks like we might have two or even three join, so let me know whether you'd rather continue playing as Lira or Oliver.

So not both ? Oliver then.

Maybe both. It will depend on how many players actually make it past the character pitch stage. We'll see. I'm going to keep in communication with the prospectives this weekend and try to set things up for next week.

In reply to A Malign Presence (msg # 276):

Ok that sounds cool, fingers crossed again.

Sorry man, things have stalled out. I think the new players lost interest. Additionally, I'm dealing with some heavy RL stuff. I think I may need to take a hiatus.

Sorry for the back and forth.

I apologize. I have not lost interest I just got stalled reading all the available information.

I should be able to finish my character today.

In reply to Hanse Von Danzig (msg # 279):

Cool, the more the merrier.

My character is pretty much done. If AMP would take a look at it and let me know what else needs to be done.

I also have a Relationship thing that needs to be detailed out.

Taking my son back to the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville FL Monday and Tuesday.

It's a 7 hour drive down on Monday and a 7 hour drive back on Tuesday. I'll be back home Tuesday night.

I will try to keep up but my access and ability to post will be more limited than normal until then.

All good here?

In reply to Hanse Von Danzig (msg # 283):

Msg #278 said we are hiatus for the moment. Thanks.

I have a game if you are interested, just starting out. We are using the "Red Box" D&D rule set and the adventure "Gardens of Ynn".

Yes, I'm sorry, but I'm dealing with some heavy RL stuff at the moment. I'm hoping to pick things back up in October or November, but I'm afraid I need to put the game on hold.

Not a problem. I'll keep the game on by board and when you come back I'll be here.

I'll head over and check out Oliver's game.
