Vicon and Friends -- KINGMAKER CAMPAIGN!

Game Master Vicon

This game is presently full, but if you would like to be contacted if/when we need more players, please state so here! <3

dot me in then, I'm more than willing to put forward a kobold emissary.

:P

I’m interested. Lots of ideas that would be fun in Kingmaker.

Always looking to play Kingmaker! Have a few interesting Ideas so please feel free to contact me if there is an opening

Would love to play Kingmaker :) Please put me on your list!

Never had a chance to play Kingmaker and always wanted to. Dot me in as well.

Anyone interested in playing an arcane caster? That's what the party seems to lack at the moment. PM me!

Are you looking for a full caster? Looking at the party you have, there’s already a Magus and a Bard, right?

It was one of the ideas floating around -- we're actually down a paladin, so front line fighty types might be a good add as well.

Spoke to the party, things are more open than first thought. Feel free to pm me or talk about prospective character concepts here!

I tried to run and play a whole different concept for Kingmaker as both player and DM. In both cases, the campaign saw a six-man team of Elven Special Forces from Golarion operate in the area. Their mission was to destabilize the region from becoming tamed by the humans attempting to pacify the land for their voracious consumption. It was discovered that the River Kingdoms was the home of a very ancient elven kingdom in millenias past and is home to many artifacts and possibly a hidden city or fortress. If it's possible, you could allow me to run this party as a counter-plot against the current party oblivious to our existence. It's not that they are evil, they simply wish to regain that which they strongly believe is elven property and hope to slow down the humans from devouring all there is. Therefore, these top-notch elves conduct sabotage, guerilla warfare, ambush, upheavals, revolutions, and all that bad stuff that modern USA Green Berets are good for.

Whacha think?

I'd love to make an arcanist, have never played one. I'll get on it if the spot is still free.

What are the guidelines for character creation? Point-buy, background skills, that sort of thing. Cheers :)

Here's Kelianis, elven arcanist. I haven't bought a full suite of gear yet, as I'm not sure on starting wealth, also not sure on background skills, so haven't selected any.

Ha, sorry just noticed... I had copied and pasted across another stat block for Kelianis, but forgot to change the hp... He does not, obviously, have 7d6+7 hp :)

Recruitment is temporarily closed again, I will keep you all in mind!

Dang! Have fun anyhow.

Anybody out there interested in joining the campaign as a front-line type? The party is short a fighter and we're cruising along at 2nd level now.

Posts every 1-2 days required.

I would have no problem filling that gap. If you'd let me I'd like to run a brawler for the first time. Otherwise I will roll up a Magus. Thoughts?

Occultist, Cavalier, Oracle, Rogue, Bard, Magus.

All 6 look to be recently active.

Looking to go to 7, or are either of those who haven't posted in a week gone?

Would the players prefer a tank (attack sponge), a wall (damage sponge), or a hard agressor (DPA)?

I’ve got an Aldori Swordlord Fighter ready to go. Well, he might need to be adjusted to meet your build rules, but other than that.

Cavalier has left the game.

You've got dibs on joining because you dotted this thread long ago.

rules are 25 point buy, 2 traits, Hitpoints are best of 2 dice or half of one dice rounded up. Your character starts at level 2, with basic level 2 wealth.

Any further questions can be directed at me!

Ouachitonian, you are in!

Interested. No experience with Kingmaker, other than I just started the PC version, and the first session of Kingmaker at a tabletop game. Longtime 3.5 & Pathfinder player. One of your players - Azul/Peet suggested I might want to join. I would play a straight up Fighter if accepted.

For your information, I am a VERY regular poster as well. I am a DM for The Emerald Spire, and am also playing in a 5E homebrew game on here, and also play in a Firefly/Serenity based PBP on another site. And I play in a tabletop Pathfinder every Wednesday night, that just completed a campaign all the way from level 1 to 20 with 2 Mythic Tiers, and we have just had 1 session starting the Kingmaker campaign.

I know very little about Kingmaker, though I am also playing the PC game that just came out.

I typically prefer to play magic users, Sorcerers mostly, though I have also done clerics, and occasionally I do play Fighters or Rogues. So a bit of a variety, though I have never played a Barbarian, or a Druid.

And just to let you know as well, I can post regularly even while at work, except I cannot access maps, or any Google Docs while at work. They get blocked by the IT dept.

Welcoming Stormstrider as well. <3

Yay! Thanks!

I'll go ahead and roll my HD for 2nd lev then.

Hit die: 2d10 ⇒ (10, 3) = 13 YAY 10!!!

And first 'list' of questions: any race, alignment, trait, or feat restrictions? Half-Orc?

Any restrictions on ability scores/using dump stats/max stats?

Do you allow Stamina and combat tricks for the fighter?

Any language restrictions?

Do you require or want a background? How detailed?

Do you use background skills?

Any restrictions on what I can buy with my money? Cold iron weapons?

Sorry, I know it is a lot of questions! Obviously feel free to give a simple yes/no, or to be as detailed as you want.

And there will be more to come!

Any issues with a Nodachi sword?

Oops! Never mind about Cold Iron! I forgot how much that costs! Hahaha!

Any issues with a Nodachi sword?

Nodachi is fine, as long as there is some justification for it in your backstory.

And first 'list' of questions: any race, alignment, trait, or feat restrictions? Half-Orc?

I am open to anything non third party. I am especially fond of half orcs if they have the trait that gives them bite attacks, but no pressure from me there.

Any restrictions on ability scores/using dump stats/max stats?

20 would be the max, and anything above 18 you would mention in your backstory. Dump stats can't go below 3 -- but if you do I'd expect you to roleplay that weakness.

Do you allow Stamina and combat tricks for the fighter?

we're not using the stamina point system, so no on this.

Any language restrictions?

Nope!

Do you require or want a background? How detailed?

If you give me a background I might try to tie it in with sidequests or campaign backstory. Anything particularly special (high stats, uncommon gear) should have a justification in your backstory. It doesn't have to be long, but let it explain where you come from and maybe tie in with the traits you picked.

Do you use background skills?

Yes!

Any restrictions on what I can buy with my money? Cold iron weapons?

No restrictions yet -- but I'll address stuff on a case by case basis.

Sorry, I know it is a lot of questions! Obviously feel free to give a simple yes/no, or to be as detailed as you want.

Glad to have them.

And there will be more to come!

Bring it!

I sent you a PM with some questions. Some overlap with the above, but not entirely.

Stormstrider: If you don't want your character to be from Tian Xia, you should know that a Falchion is almost the same as a Nodachi. Average damage is 0.5 HP less but it does have the advantage of having a minimum damage of 2, and more consistent damage closer to the average since you are rolling two dice.

Cold iron doubles the price of the base weapon but not the cost to make it masterwork.

If you are going with two-handed weapons you should know that we will be outdoors a lot and having a reach weapon would also be a good idea. The Lucerne hammer does the best damage and can deal blunt or piercing damage; the bardiche crits more often.

Already have the Lucerne! Thanks!

And a Composite Longbow (+ 4 STR)!

I'll look into the Falchion, thanks.

Vicon, I'm having some trouble with Hero Lab not allowing me to save my character as a PDF right now, trying to work it out.

By the way, I see you have a link to a map in ROll20, but I can't seem to locate that map? I would like to see it since I have never actually used Roll20, even though I do have the basic free account. Really would like to learn more about it, but ... I need about 20 more hours in my days!!! Hahaha!

EDIT: The Falchion does look nice, but I already wrote up a background that explains the Nodachi. Thanks anyways Azul!

PDF problem resolved, will get alias/profile created and posted asap ...

FYI: We got rid of the Roll 20 thing and are using google slides.

Actually,

The main map for exploration on roll d20 is still viable... and I've been editing it to relate what parts of the map the players have passed through/explored.

PM me your email address and I'll try to add you to the roll20 game and then maybe you'll be able to see the map by launching the game.

Azul IS correct that since resizing maps in Roll20 has been quite difficult for me, we've been using google slides, but I hope to get better at this as we go on.

I've been using the roll20 map for following our overland exploration progress, its nice to have!

Vicon, resizing maps on roll20 is quite challenging, I wouldn't be too hard on yourself about it!

has the spot been filled? It seems that is the case, but Figured I would ask just to be sure.

Sadly so!
