Topic: Orion Group take 2: QA Subject: other possibilities
Things were found in the forest, no tracks, and they couldn't be tracked with scent. Sounds like a druid with trackless step ( level 3 class skill ) and or pass without a trace ( level 1 druid and ranger spell ) . Or it could be a ranger whenever they get their first level of spells.
Would anyone that's talking to the sherrif know anything about these things? I have knowledge arcane and I'm sure others do too. I was thinking we could figure out if that spell was being used with a knowledge arcana check with the info that we have received thus far.

Topic: Throne of the Phantom King-Q&A Subject: characters positioning
How are we going to have our guys set up while traveling? Is there going to be anyone scouting for the group? Should we all bunch up near the wagon or should we spread out just a little?
I was thinking of having Garrik stay close to the wagon to protect Talon in case we get attacked.

Topic: Throne of the Phantom King Subject: A new day
Garrik couldn't seem to get out of bed and moving at a decent time.
I think the ale was drugged. There is no reason why I should feel this tired and sleepy after only having one ale and then getting my supplies for the trip. It looks like Bruno and Ms. Moon Cat are already heading out. I better get a move on, that way Patrick can be the last one there.
Garrik doubled checked his supplies, equipment, and mounts for the trip. After making sure he had everything he headed out to the agreed upon meeting place even though the agreed upon meeting time had already slightly passed.
Upon reaching it Garrik heard in a loud, rough voice,"Glad to see you all could make it! Did someone put stickem in Y'alls bed last night? Well, lets get a move on,I'd personally like to make the foot hills of Mt. Harauk before sun set."
"Sorry about being late. I think the ale went bad we had yesterday. Okay, let's get moving then."

Topic: Throne of the Phantom King-Q&A Subject: gnolls
i left the gnoll business out of my post that way the Crimson Chin can have the conversation with Talon about that. Seeing as his character is the most affected and concerned with the gnolls i didn't want to take his conversation away from him.
Is there anything i need to work on in my posts or are they ok so far?

Topic: Throne of the Phantom King Subject: onward! yeah!
Upon entering the tavern, Garrik hung back a little from the members of the group asking questions to the patrons.
Content to let the others do the question asking and deal making he just listened in on the conversations.
After a few minutes the group came across a gruff looking man, with a pint of ale in front of them.
"Is there something I might help you people with, today?", he says. 'Hopefully this is the man we are looking for' Garrik thought. We had already talked to almost all of the customers in the tavern and if this wasn't him we might have missed him already. Isilifeline answered "Yes, there is. We are looking for a merchant who needs guards. She gives the man the name that Guard had given the. Do you happen to know him or where we can find him? His son mentioned that he could usually be found here."
Luckily for us he answered "Yes, M'lady, I know him. I know him well. Won't you all have a seat? I'll buy the first round. Been watching you and your friends there, asking questions, gettin' directions. Well, you follow directions well. You found your man!" At the now smiling, friendly merchant's suggestion Garrik had a seat and took him up on the offer of the free ale by signaling the waitress for one mug.
Talon wasted no time getting the conversation going. "So, you say my boy Tom sent ya? That boy has a good heart but not too much of a good head on his shoulders, though."
Garrik agreed with the Merchant's assessment of his son. If he was brighter he would have steered clear of working for such a cold, seemingly heartless person.
"He working for that witch of a woman, right? He also doesn't realize how bad business has been for me, of late."
Garrik was hoping it was the gnolls interrupting his trade, not that that was a good thing, and it wasn't something more serious that Talon didn't want to share with them. After a pause the merchant continued.
"Though I'd love to hire some wagon guards, I really can't afford it. I can pay you and your friends each two silver a day, which would be an insult to any respectable guard in this city. It's a five days travel to Leafhaven, soooo......" Talon paused shortly to take in the group and then continued, "Is this all of you? Well roughly I'd have to pay out almost one gold piece a day. This was most likely going to be my last ride, given the gnoll raids on a few traders in the past month. If I were raided, chances are I won't be coming back, but a man's got to make a living, don't you agree?" Certainty, Garrik thought as he nodded his head in agreement at Talon's question. Luckily for the merchant this group was looking for someone who knew the way to Leafhaven , and not looking to make some gold working as caravan guards.
Patrick reinforced this idea with his talk with Talon. The good natured Cleric even offered to pay the party for Talon if thats what it took to get them to go along. Garrik was puzzeled by this. Why would you have to pay your friends and allies to help your friends and allies? And asking for interaction with the gnolls almost sounded like Patrick thought that poor Talon had any kinda control over the savage creatures. Was he being paranoid or just hoping the merchant wouldn't want us all to flee at the first sign of a gnoll? Lost in that thought Garrik just half listened to the chat while thinking on these things. Patrick and Talon wrapped up their conversation.
Talon then said, "There are questions that I will answer on the road and not in an environment as this. I promise you that. All I ask in return for helping you get there safely is that you help me and my cargo get to Leafhaven safely. Have we got a deal?".
"Sounds good to me" Garrik answers. Talon then raised his mug in a toast and said, "Let drink on it. "To a safe haul all the way to Leafhaven!"
"To a safe haul", Garrik answered back while lifting his own mug. A quick chug and the drink was finished. "Let's get our supplies and get this trip going" he says to the rest of the group, before heading out to find himself a decent horse for the trip.
Hopefully Bruno and Behufil were busy getting ready for the trip and not in any kind of trouble. Garrik was hoping his other friends weren't in danger while the rest of the group was busy chatting and drinking.

well it looks all ok to me except for the bit about you paying money to the group. thats just kinda weird.
I'm sure the gnolls will have their own plans on interacting with us. (DMs are evil like that)

Topic: Orion Group take 2: QA Subject: another way into town
maybe there are caves nearby too. even if the town doesn't have city walls a cave could be connected to a basement such as in a church or other bigger building in town. I guess it could be a smaller cave entrance/exit and be in a regular basement or even connected to someone's well too.
Is the town completely surrounded by woods or are their any cliffs or hills nearby?
Or old ruins that could contain some kinda magical portal or gate?

Topic: Best D&D Hybrid class choice Subject: Gestalt (hybrid) class 3.5
I've had fun playing a fighter/cleric (dwarf) , a barbarian/sorcerer (kobold) , rogue/fighter (human) , a paladin/monk (human,this was funner than it sounds) , and monk/fighter (gold half-dragon,human).
A duskblkade/cleric (tiefling) channeling his own inflict spells was also in our group once. That is a nasty combination.
Rogue/sorcerers also tend to be a party favorite. We got one just about every gestalt game.
The warmage/swashbuckler was interesting too.
My personal favorite that the DM made for me because i didn't know what to make for a campaign was a psychic warrior/warrior (unearthed arcana version) . He was an Elan and wielded a 2 bladed sword. He gave him a psi crystal, and a psychic crystal weapon. He is the deadliest melee character that i have ever played.

Topic: adventuring Subject: kobold
races of the dragon d&d 3.5 has kobolds in it as a playable race. The have special feats and everything.
I think i saw goblins in an old issue of dragon magazine as a playable race but i don't remember which one.
If you haven't looked at savage species take a look at it. It shows how to make monsters into playable classes.
Also check the monster manuals. Some races already have information in them that says for player characters or something similar.
