COD: New Mission - Clan Battles

Post by kabkal »

NEW MISSION PARAMETERS

Mission Title: Clan Battles

Brief description of the Mission:
Your clan has captured a prisoner from an enemy clan, and they have one of your clan members held prisoner. You need to free your clan member and get back safely before the other clan does. This can be done by force, negotiation or guile.

Rule System to be used: Pathfinder

Validation Frequency:
Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday, please use the other days to talk as a clan, as working together will be crucial.

Minimum/Maximum Number of Players requested:
Minimum players: 4; Maximum players: 10. Players will be split between the two clans.

Source Books Allowed/Denied: Pathfinder Core book only

Classes and Races Allowed/Denied: Any class/race found in the core rulebook is acceptable.

Starting Level for the Champions:
Starting at 2nd level.

How to Generate Attributes:
20 point buy. Max HP at level 1 and use the following table based on HD type and level as follows:
  • d4 = 2 (odd levels) or 3 (even levels)
    d6 = 3 (odd levels) or 4 (even levels)
    d8 = 4 (odd levels) or 5 (even levels)
    d10 = 5 (odd levels) or 6 (even levels)
    d12 = 6 (odd levels) or 7 (even levels)
Starting Equipment/Wealth: 1000GP + starting wealth for class as found on page 140 of the core rule book, please roll at invisible castle as described below.

End Conditions: TPK or your clan’s prisoner is free and back to your starting spot.

Notes about this Mission:
As stated above, the players will be split into two teams, as evenly matched as possible. Your clan will need to get from one end of the cavern to the other, free your fellow clan member (an NPC) and then get back to your side before the other clan accomplishes the same mission. During the mission there will be a pixie that will take a message from one clan to the other on alternating on turns (used for negotiation, taunting or just plain annoying the other clan). The pixie is not good at this and can only remember 10 words at a time. And even then, there is a 40% chance that any given word will be forgotten and replaced with a random word, even if it makes no sense or alters the meaning of the phrase. The list of replacement words will be posted at the start of game, along with the role needed to get such word.

Also, one character in each clan should be adept at setting traps and should have the Crafts (traps) skill, and should take some skill points in this skill. There will be materials given to each clan to make three traps: Arrow, Javelin and Poisoned Dart. Use these wisely, as it may be the only thing between you and defeat.

Throughout the caves there are lairs and wandering monsters you may encounter, so the enemy clan is not all that you need to be concerned about.
Leveling up will be done off XP for both clans. In other words, if one clan levels they both do. XP will be awarded for battle, trap making, trap removal and a few other things that may be a surprise to the clans.

Since there are two separate clans, it is expected to play with integrity and not look in the posting for the other clan. There will be a third posting area that is general knowledge, and will be open for either clan to read. The expectation is that no player will post in this area, except for OoC questions.

We will use the InvisibleCastle.com (http://invisiblecastle.com/) for all die rolls. Please use Clans for the campaign.
