Re: Chapter 1: The Black City
Suen mutters quietly to his companions. "It was foolish to come here, but did any of us have a choice?"

Re: Chapter 1: The Black City
Suen Magir interjects. "We need not remain...'alguraba', as Farouk puts it. Travel with us, and you will learn that we do all have a unique skill-set." He meets Mekertu's eyes briefly--not long enough to mesmerize him, but long enough for him to feel the pull. Helping with Persuasion.

Re: Chapter 1: The Black City
Suen forces a friendly grin on his face. "Mekertu, eh? I'm Suen-Magir. You're the leader of this...group, I take it? Why don't you tell me a bit about yourselves, as it seems we'll be companions for at least a little bit. We should get to know each other." Persuasion: [1d6]=4[1d6]=1[1d6]=...

Re: Chapter 1: The Black City
As the tents are being set up, Sabit approaches Suen, standing very close beside him. "It could be useful," she whispers, "Knowing these men are here. If we can discover who is in charge, you could make sure that they serve our needs." She looks into Suen's face, smiling, unflin...

Re: Chapter 1: The Black City
Suen speaks hesitantly, almost stuttering, as he glances back at his sister. "I...I don't know how to make illusions. I could try, but...it's dangerous. I could maybe ask the demons of this place to tell me the history of the city? Perhaps that would tell us what trials await us?" He casts...

Re: OOC Chat
I don't mind my character being put in tough spots...but I did just see that the pregen has Plagued by Faerie (thinking the character's mother, who has his best interests at heart but does not understand the mortal world), which is a Story flaw, and so is Diedne Magic. The rules recommend only a sin...

Re: OOC Chat
I saw that it came with Dark Secret. If it's going to be disruptive or difficult to handle I'm happy to drop Diedne Magic and take something like Entrancement or Cyclic Magic and really double down on the fey ancestry.

Re: OOC Chat
I think I'm going to take the Merinita mage pretty much as-is, though I'm considering swapping Presence and Communication (I see them as more charming than well-spoken), and possibly taking the Virtue "Diedne Magic" and flaws to balance it. I have ideas on a backstory, but I'm not clear on...

Re: OOC Chat
Looking at the pregen for Merenita, it looks like it leans pretty heavily on faerie-related flaws and virtues. I may tweak it a little and use it nearly as-is.

Re: OOC Chat
I love everything surrounding magical research, so I'm leaning toward a House Bonisagus mage. Alternately, the idea of Mystery Cults is exciting, and Merinita would probably be fun to play as well.

Re: Recruitment/Interest Check - Ars Magica
I'd be interested. Never played AM but have read 4e extensively and love the idea of building a chantry, doing research, etc.

Re: Interest check - 5e Basic Rules only
I don't know if you're thinking of running multiple groups and it looks like a pretty full roster, but I'd be interested in playing or waitlisting.

Re: Any interest in a Dungeon Crawl Classic (DCC) campaign?
DCC is the first one I'm aware of to use a funnel (though I can't claim that for sure) but I've seen others use it since. It's a popular way to start at 0-level.

Re: Character Creation
Given the number of PCs already in play, I'll just introduce Barrett the Thief for now. I didn't see a PM, but I'm looking forward to the game!
