The Unseen Servant forums

Chapter 1 players - things have gotten a bit confusing, so here's what to expect over the next couple of weeks in real time.

- We will conclude the Chapter 1 adventure. It's just about wrapped up.
- Work through character advancement to level 1. This can be done either in the private forum or in the Level 1 Character Thread.

Then we will begin setting up the next adventures. I will add some more detail of the world your PCs know and most...likely all...will interact with appropriate NPCs for plot hooks. At this point I'll set up a recruitment thread where players can advertise for missions/tasks/adventures they want to lead and we'll get them started. This will provide an opportunity to recruit new 0-level players and/or employ hirelings.

In game time, there will be about eight weeks between end of Chapter 1 and the next adventure. Please let me know if you have any questions/comments/feedback for how this is going...

My initial thought is that Xerxes goes back to Clearwater, completes his novitiate duties to graduate as an actual ordained priest and then goes on adventure.

Are we 'handwaving' any liquidation of the gems value so that we can go shopping for extra gear, buying better armour and appropriate weapons?

Also, do you have a complete list (or link?) to the full Cleric spells I may choose from?

Yes, and we can roleplay that out a bit. I posted the spells under the Cleric class in the game information thread. Let's discuss which spells you think Xerxes would want and how that fits with Ulesh's teachings.

For equipment, yes. We can handwave the conversion. Trading gems for goods at full value is fine. But if PCs seek to sell gems for gold or silver they should expect to not get full value for that exchange.

On holiday for a short break. Expect to be away from my phone for a few days.

I will update my character sheets and be ready for next adventures by Friday.

Hi all,

Apologies for being away. I have been laid low by cellulitis. I have learned that you really should not scratch poison ivy blisters, and you also should not ignore it when your leg begins to swell up.

Antibiotics and steroids have me on the mend. Hope to update things soon. Sorry again!

Sorry to hear that AleBelly. Do what you need to do to get better, we will be here when you are ready. Get better!

Yikes! I had a cousin who got that. No fun at all.

Get well soon!

Get well soon

Jeez, sounds terrible!

Get well soon!

Don't worry about the game until you do.

Get well soon!

Take care good sir!

Hi all - an update. I have started working through your level 1 character's integration to their new classes. I will complete this tomorrow and populate more information about Clearwater as well as the Chapter 2 update. Thanks for staying tuned through the weird crap I've been going through!

No problem, just glad you are improving.

Thanks - I randomly determined my order of updating. Rex, you have one in your private forum. This is where they will initially show up for all of you Chapter 1 completers.

I will be out of town and computer free until next Tuesday (7/16). Please NPC my character.

Are we allowed to sell off items we found but don't need in order to buy new gear and supplies?

Yes - for items on the equipment list you can sell for half price (rusty armor and grappling hook won't attract any buyers though ). Gems can be traded for full value for goods. If you have unique items to sell we can talk about that.

Hi,

Some updates:

One of the players for the Chapter 2 funnel has been away for awhile, so I'll NPC his characters until he returns. That way we can keep a good cadence on that thread.

For the newly minted level 1 characters, there have been a couple AFKs. I may have to NPC a couple to get things moving. Expect updates on your characters' individual stuff tonight. I will then introduce more info about the setting of Clearwater to help it make sense. I'll be going with the sandbox theme, but it is taking me a bit of time to tackle it all and get the order of operations right. Thanks for your patience!

Hello guys. I am back online after my password login issues.

Sorry to hear about that Stirling, glad your back.
