War for the Crown PF1 OOC Thread
Here is the OOC thread. Due to Christmas, I will take a couple of days before I kick the game into gear. But please take the opportunity to pick a colour and get to know each other.

Re: War for the Crown PF1 OOC Thread
Shotgun plum!
In all fairness, there's a solid 70% chance I'll do it by habit if I don't pick it first anyway O_o. It's become borderline mania for me.
But hey! I'm pleasantly surprised! I didn't really think we were gonna make it. Thanks for the invite, and I promise to do my best to give you something interesting to read,Last edited by Farmerbink; 2023-12-24 at 02:48 PM.

At Paradox26's request, here's a link to discord, where we'll probably talk faster, if not necessarily more often.

Re: War for the Crown PF1 OOC Thread
Matanya Harino (aka Rebecca Romos) will go green!
Race and class: Human Bard [Lotus Geisha]
Age: 21
Who she is: A firm believer in "freedom and democracy" and bringer of social change
Specialties: Infiltration, lockpicking, charm, magical support.
Deity: Milani
Alignment: Chaotic Good
Position: Backline with a bow and bardic performance.
Spoiler: Picture
Spoiler: BackgroundMatanya Harino is a young woman who grew up in Andoran and has relatives living in Andoran and in Taldor. She grew up on stories of freedom and egality and how the people of Andoran won their independence from the evil slaver nobles of Cheliax. She heard how all the other governments in the world (except for Galt, which…has its own issues) do not represent their people like the Andoran government does. The wide-eyed, idealistic Matanya joined the Eagle Knights in order to “spread freedom” to the world.
In the Eagle Knights, Matanya developed some basic bardic skills and magics, but her limited martial prowess made it clear she wasn’t going to be a star in the Golden Legion or the Steel Falcons. However, her silver tongue, soft movements, and skill with disguises marked her as a prime recruit for the Twilight Talons. Matanya was recruited into Andoran’s secret espionage organization, and her first real mission would not send her far from home. She was to assume the role of an exotic dancer and lady of the night, and look for opportunities to gather intel and blackmail on various nobles and politicians in Taldor. These intel would aid in future machinations to engineer a political change in Taldor.
Having relatives in Taldor, Matanya actually cares about Taldor enough to want to improve the lot of Taldor’s citizens. As such, she firmly believes in her mission beyond just her zeal to spread freedom. She has been in Taldor for the better part of a year now, and has had some success. Matanya, whose undercover name is <Rebecca Romos>, has built quite the reputation as a brazen and beautiful escort, with skill in song, dance, and conversation. When Lady Martella Lotheed’s invitation to the Exaltation Gala arrived at the brothel, Matanya was quite surprised. Surprised, but not unprepared. This even would be a goldmine for her. Armed with a working knowledge of the various nobles and political faction, a scandalously revealing and distracting dress, and the willingness to do anything to succeed, Matanya will change Taldor, one way or another.
Spoiler: PersonalityMatanya's true personality is hard to determine because when she is playing a role, she tends to play it to the hilt. In her current role, she often plays up her sophistication and her worldliness. When she does let her true self shine through, Matanya exudes playful energy combined with an abundance of confidence that only youth can bring. She perks up whenever the topic of societal change and liberation is brought up and is willing to talk someone's ears off on the subject.
Everyone don't forget to DM Farmerblink on discord after joining, so he caa add you to the War for the crown sub-channel on his server.Last edited by Frosty; 2023-12-25 at 02:36 AM.

Re: War for the Crown PF1 OOC Thread
It's a super minor and unimportant nitpick, but it doesn't seem like what's being voted on here is ending primogeniture - that just means rule by the eldest child, no gender preference inherent in the term - what most European kingdoms had and Taldor is voting on is specifically 'male primogeniture' or 'agnatic primogeniture'.
Or is there more to the proposed change than just letting a woman into the line of succession? I could be making a fool of myself

Re: War for the Crown PF1 OOC Thread
You are correct. I thought I wrote male primogeniture. Sorry, that is what I meant.
EDIT: I just had a look, and the bit about simple primogeniture was what was written in the book, which I copied word for word. I think I mentioned male primogeniture somewhar, but it might have been in a PM with a player.Last edited by paradox26; 2023-12-27 at 04:38 AM.

Re: War for the Crown PF1 OOC Thread
Lillian would be very effective at accomplishing Discovery and Sabotage, I think with +10 Appraise, +7 Disable Device, +9 Perception and Sense Motive.
She'd be less likely to be successful at Spy, but could still succeed: +5 Disguise, +6 Stealth, and the aforementioned +9 Perception and Sense Motive.
Lillian would be willing to help with Aide, Politicking, or Theft. Her Sleight of Hand is +6, so not enough to succeed 50% of the time without assistance. She'd be able to aid another on the skill, though, with good odds of success.
Given all that, I plan to have Lillian volunteer to first do the Sabotage task. Then, once complete, she can attempt Discovery. If anyone wants to help, they might speak up in-character after my post.
On the other tasks Lillian will help after someone else volunteers.

Re: War for the Crown PF1 OOC Thread
Weird question: Seresey has 34 of the 45 mentioned gold to afford noble's clothing. However, she also has a disguise kit. Could I use one to supplement the other, or is someone willing to loan me 11? XD

Re: War for the Crown PF1 OOC Thread
Sorry I have been slow to get a response up. I have been both busy and put off by the current unreliability of the forums.
ALso, a courtier's outfit should be sufficient for most purposes. Not sure anyone will need to be dressed as a noble, but it can be arranged if you feel it necessary.

Re: War for the Crown PF1 OOC Thread
Sorry for being absent for so long, everyone. I had a lot of RL things going on, and have barely been online. I was able to access the forum through my mobile, but I wasn't at my computer where I could access the modules, so I couldn't post. Things should return to normal now.

Re: War for the Crown PF1 OOC Thread
Here and excited to get playing!
It is worth noting that until my schedule improves (the week of 19 FEB) I will be very hot-cold. On days I work I go from very early until very late (12+ hours at work) for 3 days in a row. I then have three days off, during which I can post plenty. Life gets better mid-month and should stay that way for some time.

Re: War for the Crown PF1 OOC Thread
Hey, folks, I’m posting on behalf of paradox26. Between forum problems and RL issues, he is putting all of his games on hold for now.
He intends to pick up again when he’s in a better place, but no timeframe yet. Please send some good thoughts his way.

Best of luck paradox -- I'll be around when/if you're able to resume, but of course life comes first.
