D&D: Savage tide Setup

TGBarighm · February 2011

Hey, if that's the way you want to go about things, go ahead, but here's how I see it: pile CHA to boost a secondary set of abilities OR take advantage of the fact martial classes can hit things very often and make sure you hit very, very hard. You can always make up the difference with magical items.

(I haven't forgotten you guys, I just ended up not being home over the weekend.)

Firemyst · April 2011

I think we need to start sending out a search party for the chia.

TGBarighm · April 2011

Good idea!

*rolls a 1*

Crap.

Seriously though, if Firemyst doesn't know where he is...well, gee, not much hope for the rest of us, is there?

He said he's busy. That's all I know.

You could try joining some other games if you're bored. I know he gives you freebies, but the other GM's around here aren't half bad. :P

Firemyst · April 2011

I've been thinking about it. The only reason usually that Chia gets me in his games is because he bugs me on MSN. Now that he's missing, I tend to forget. :x

chiapet · April 2011

Sorry I haven't been around guys. Between my new job and baseball/softball I just haven't had much time lately.

chiapet · July 2011

My apologies for not updating yesterday. My kids and I were involved in a car wreck after church, and Justin was transported to the ER. He's okay, but after that and baseball I just wasn't in the mood to do anything.

On another note, TG has chosen to withdrawl Kit from the game. He may enter a new character later, but at least now I don't have to worry about getting him to the island where the brotherhood are headquartered ;)

Acathala · July 2011

No worries and I'm glad you and your family turned out ok.

TGBarighm · July 2011

Wow didn't see that post. Glad you're okay.

I haven't looked at a D&D ref. sheet for ages, but here's the character bio for now:

Aqaezi of the Snake born

Aqaezi is a wizard and is part of a tribe somewhere within the tropics. His status as "snake born" indicates his specialty as an enchanter and apothecary. He serves as the tribal leader and elder. Well into his 50's, he is pepper-haired and has lost some of his stamina, but that doesn't stop him from climbing a mountain path to gather rare herbs and meditate. That is why he was not present when the Scarlet Brotherhood attacked his village and took his people as slaves. The ship had already departed and left when he reached the village, but a second Brotherhood ship arrived. Passing himself off as a simple medicine man, he allowed himself to be captured in hopes of finding where the Brotherhood took his people. His knowledge of local herbs and medicine proved very useful to the Brotherhood and they have decided to keep him around while operating in the region. Aqaezi will gladly serve anyone who helps him rescue his tribesman.

Um...scores?

chiapet · August 2011

*looks around for dice*

found them!

15, 12, 13, 15, 13, 18

Firemyst · August 2011

I'm basically MIA this weekend for PAX. If you need something for Lia (or Myrrine), roll with what you think is best.

Enyo · December 2011

I still want to play this game, but in all fairness, perhaps it is time to look for a change of DM? Not to say that Chia isn't a great DM, and I don't have the greatest attendance record myself, but... I think we might need to cut down on the time between posts a bit.

TGBarighm · December 2011

I don't think that's possible. Savage Tide is a published adventure from Dragons magazine or something like that, so only Keno has the adventure notes.

Enyo · December 2011

I don't mind moving on to a different storyline if that's what it takes... but practicality aside, I'm curious about what the other players think

Soulweaver · January 2012

I enjoyed Savage Tide while it lasted, but I think it's time to move on (unless the pace really picks up in a hurry).

As for a new game... although the slow pace of forum games has its place for planning and tactics, it's really hard to go back to that after I've experienced the more spontaneous fun of a real-life group. So I don't see myself joining up unless the story really piques my interest.

TGBarighm · January 2012

Well, Keno does have a thing for disappearing for months on end and then reappearing with a vengeance, so I wouldn't count him out yet.

Enyo · January 2012

Due to having to work overtime I might be slow with my posts this week - apologies for that.

Acathala · August 2012

I'm finally going to have time this week to write an ending for the Savage Tide game, based on what I found out happens. I'd also like to write an epilogue for each of the characters, if no one objects, though TG I believe you already gave Kit an ending.

TGBarighm · August 2012

I quit because I had a knack for taking Kit off the campaign path and because the game was being updated only once a month for half a year. It also didn't help that the next ten levels of Swashbuckler didn't grant any new abilities, save for one, and was all statistical upgrades. I got bored and he wasn't really the type to stick around when things got complicated anyway. I was coming back with a new character. Kit is returning in another capacity though, heh.

Gee, I hope my quitting didn't tick Keno (Chia) off. He put up with a fair bit of crap just so he could keep playing with me all these years.

I would like to know how the campaign ends, but I'm not sure about writing everyone's ending. I'm pretty sure Soulweaver would object.

Acathala · August 2012

Well I'll get the ending up first, then pm everyone concerned if they want to add a epilogue. Might have to get Myst to ask for Chia's okay to use James, as I'm pretty sure Chia doesn't check this site often if at all.
Yes you were planning an Olman enchanter..

Acathala · September 2012

I haven't given up, but I should be able to start again in a couple of weeks.

Acathala · October 2012

I should be able to start again tomorrow. Not sure if I can do anything on Friday as it is my birthday!!!! I may be able to finish all the chapters on saturday. Only 2 left then we can do epilogues!

TGBarighm · May 2018

One of the most common things I hear is "boy, I wish we could access the older game threads", and this was this thread's main announcement thread back in the day, so...

I've managed to recover the original Savage Tide thread from BHR and have archived it at my forum. Currently trying to recover the others, but given the state of the Disco, I find that highly unlikely. I've also managed to recover Aegis Hounds and the final chapter of Children of Time.

Now what would be REALLY impressive is if I managed to recover Fate of the Tear and the Mecha game, but I'm pretty sure all of those old RPGamer threads were deleted and we all know what happened to VBDX.

Howdy, Stranger!
