Future Planning

Here is what I have in mind for our gaming future.

Next week

Next Tuesday, 10/8/13, we will play a tier 1-5 PFS scenario, The Stolen Heir #5-04. This would be a good opportunity to play a new character to expand your stable. Some of you have an XP credit from playing We Be Goblins Too! which have been assigned to an as of yet undefined character. You must have a character ready to play by the time we start next week. (That means do the work before you arrive.)

New HEX Characters

Because it will be very difficult bordering on impossible to accomplish, I will not even try to keep the XP the same for your ne HEX characters as that of your old characters. I think I am comfortable allowing you to have 30 XP beyond that from character creation for your new guy. Once everyone has a new character completed, and I have had a chance to review them, I will schedule some more HEX.

The Dragon’s Demand

I plan to run a new Pathfinder module, the Dragon’s Demand. This will be a several month adventure which will take your characters from 1^st to as high as 7^th level. I am willing to start running this as soon as 10/15/13 but folks will need to have their characters made. We can play this continuously from beginning to end or we can play it in parts with other stuff in between. We will see how things go. There are three chapters in the module. Chapter one will take you from 1^st to 3^rd. Chapter two will take you from 3^rd to well into 4^th. Chapter 3 can take you from 4^th to 7^th.

Character Creation: Charters should be 1^st level. For ability scores use a 25 point buy. Hit points will be max at first level. Each level after will be average for you hit die plus your constitution bonus. You will have 150 GP to buy your starting gear.

The Hook: A man named Silas Gribb offers you a job as caravan guards. You will start the game in north central Taldor within the Verduran Forest traveling south from the city of Wispil, a gnome town which provides most of the kingdom’s woodcraft and timber.

PFS Credit: We will be playing this adventure in Campaign Mode. This means that you will play a non-PFS character but you can assign PFS credit for playing to a PFS character or characters of your choice. (You could make your character to be an alternate version of your PFS character if you like.)

At the completion of the adventure, there are three chronicles that can be earned and applied to PFS characters. The first is for characters leveled 1-3. The second is for characters leveled 3-5. The third is for characters leveled 5-7. These can be applied to the same character or multiple characters. If applied to the same character you will earn a bonus chronicle which can be applied to a 2^nd, 4^th or 6^th level character. Each chronicle is worth 3 XP, 4 PP and has gold, boons and items available upon them.

In my estimation, the optimum way to apply these chronicles is to a 2^nd level character. You would apply the 1^st chronicle (taking you to 3^rd), then the 2^nd chronicle (taking you to 4^th), then the bonus chronicle (taking you to 5^th) and lastly applying the 3^rd chronicle (taking you to 6^th).
