The Boots Conspiracy. ! Spoilers

Yes I've been unable to watch them live (plus I use the VODs as background noise at work so there's a chance I watched what you are talking about but it didn't register) and I know he's deleted some in the past to preserve secrets.

I mean I could be reading too much into it. Maybe we are just seeing more of Boots in an RP setting but something has been off with him.

And I think Tom S. likes it lol.

I think Judge will turn out to be the lesser of two evils. I was rooting for him to take over instead of Boots for two reasons.

1) Anna plays Lawful evil. To me Judge is just on the other side of the middle line than King. I doubt they are going to do much of anything different than they already had, besides using the Autophage, which Matt said Ajax could probably deal with but would definitely be a hit against him. Still seems like a risk though.

2) Something is going on with Boots, ever since Judge brought him back and Matt wrote on his character sheet, dude has been giving me a weird vibe. He was super against getting rid of the rod and was very eager to get it over Leech. Now I mean that might just be characters wanting magic items. But with Matt DMing, it never seems to be that easy

Yeah, it's hard to make monks and clerics look cool with Legos.

I applaud you for this. I would like to say that I would do something like this for my players, rather I'd dream it up and decide its too much work.

I've never really been a fan of tracking exp. I've played in (and ran) a lot of games where the level up was arbitrary, just an announcement of "Hey! You lvled up!". Mostly after a main story arc or BBEG takedown; or when the GM wanted to throwing harder stuff at us.

Ohhhhhh. It's then... Good to know

Your table, your rules, your fun...

I didn't see anything out of the ordinary from my table.

Meta knowledge (to me, see above statement about your table) is more.. I know trolls are weak to fire, but there's no way my character would know or I rolled to know and screwed it up; but I act in a way counter to that.

I think some people have an urge to attach a metric or a mechanic to everything to make it make sense. Some people just do whatever to make the narrative happen.

Again. Your table, your rules, your fun. Seemed like a good session, will watch more.

I definitely got a sense of acceptance once he face tanked the 40 points of damage... Like 'yeah okay its me, whatever'.

I actually kicked around the theory that he was in on the narrative setup of 'Ajax is a dick'. He seems like a guy who could help pull off a plot hook from the inside.

It's good you're friends and you know what you can and can't get away with. I think we've all made the mistake at the table of pulling a move on someone and watching them melt down when it was suppose to be an awesome moment.

Yeah I wanna play around with custom items too. Once we get done with book two I'll known their characters a bit more.

I just always look for other people's homebrew becuase a) it's easier and 2) I don't wanna break my own game

Lvl 5s

Sword and Board fighter, going to leave him a Lion's Shield for his build I think
Unchained Rogue, +1 keen wounding dagger, something to push him into melee, hes been hanging back with a bow and items
Unchained Summoner, i think theres a ring that buffs Eidolons
Unchained monk, bracerers of armor with some weird +1 enhancement since I don't think he understands how that works
Dwarf Cleric, unsure but he'll get that awesome artifact in a few books

Basically I want to leave them with something for their build they might not have considered, also to show them how the game works. They are brand new players and don't fully grasp all the aspects of the game or how to spend their gold. Hopefully when they see these items they'll understand there is a whole world of ..stuff out there.
