History RolePlay / ANewAge

* GenreSavvy: ''Everyone.''

* BeyondTheImpossible:
** The Sky Worm. The largest size a creature can be in D&D is Colossal. The Sky Worm was as large as ''four colossal creatures in a line.''

A series of what used to be one-shot {{Pathfinder}} adventures that have [[CerebusSyndrome slowly come together in a plot.]] Hosted by {{@/Renagade}}. A New Age is a Pathfinder campaign set in a world [[AlternateUniverse Parallel to Golarion]] named Catheridge. Specifically on the continental islands known as Palagaia.

* CopyAndPasteEnvironments: Maptool is a great device for playing D&D and {{Pathfinder}} online, but in terms of backgrounds and tokens, it is still rather limited, leading to a few instances of this.

* DeusExMachina: Tiamat promptly unleashed a very powerful attack that should have immolated the entire party to ash, if it weren't for the fact that Apsu[[hottip:*:An actual god, mind you]] delivered a very timely astral teleport for them to his personal plane of existance. Nice timing, Apsu.

** Tiamat [[UpToEleven one ups the Sky Worm]] by being ''five colossal dragon heads.'' Being a goddess, this comes as no surprise but her stat block simply lists her as a huge creature and Ren responded [[DefiedTrope by going "lolNOPE" and completely redoing her size.]]

* WhoWantsToLiveForever: Raus and Tathar sure don't.
** EternalLove: Though Raus wouldn't mind if it meant he could stay with Anna.

* BeyondTheImpossible: The Sky Worm. The largest size a creature can be in D&D is Colossal. The Sky Worm was as large as ''four colossal creatures in a line.''
** Tiamat [[UpToEleven one ups the Sky Worm]] by being ''five colossal dragon heads.'' Of course, being a goddess, this comes as no surprise. But her stat block simply lists her as a huge creature and Ren responded by going "lolNOPE" and completely redoing her size.

* IncrediblyLamePun: Countless

* InterspeciesRomance: Floats around in the history and campaign in general. At least one of the 5 Dragoons of Legend got busy with their dragon mount. And [[strike:2]] 3 members of the party are in known romantic relations with their mounts.

* ShipperOnDeck: Anna. ''A Gold Dragon,'' of all things, is the mastermind behind [[OTP SethXVincent.]]

* AlternativeCalender: [[http://pathfinder.wikia.com/wiki/Calendar Here!]]

* BodyCountCompetetion: Several across the campaign. The End of Act 1. The Siege of Morden and Imperium. Players were keeping count of how many kills they were making across the campaign.

* BoringButPractical: Mickey. All he ever used was boring mundane bows and sneak attacks. No flashy magic, no crazy damage bonus. No [[MagicGlows glowy,]] [[IncendiaryExponent flaming]] [[InfinityPlusOneSword ultimate sword of asskickery.]] Hell, his ultimate weapon was literally just an [[ExcaliberInTheRust old, dingy, well used bow.]] It was just him, a whole lot of arrows, and a good strong, composite longbow. Mickey is up there for best damage dealer and highest body count in the game.

* CerebusSyndrome: Surely yet slowly, the sessions have gone from happy-go-lucky comedic one shots to a serious and engaging plot.

** And Aerlissa was Aerlissa.

* BookEnds: The campaign hasn't ended yet. But it is worth noting that Acts 1 and 2 both started and ended in Desna's Gate.

** Tiamat one ups the Sky Worm by being ''five colossal dragon heads.'' Of course, being a goddess, this comes as no surprise. But her stat block simply lists her as a huge creature and Ren responded by going "lolNOPE" and completely redoing her size.

* EverythingsCoolerWithLava: Firestone Rift and The Orb Of The Fire Temple. Ren pulled out all the stops with that lava tile.

In some Fine Leather Coats?'''''

The campaign has since come to a happy close and conclusion. Having had a 32 session run.

* SerialEscalation: Just where will Ren throw the party next? What crazy boss will they have to defeat? The party's gone from running around cleaning sewers and wiping out run of the mill bandits to flying around on ''dragons'' trying to save the world from an EvilArmy. Their first real boss fight was a bugbear. Then they went and killed flaming minotaur twins who could fuse into an even bigger version of themselves, a bigger than Colossal Sky Worm, and they're most recent accomplishment was killing a ''ancient God-King.''

'''''SESSION END.'''''

* BeyondTheImpossible: The Sky Worm. The largest size a creature can be in D&D is Colossal. The Sky Worm was as large as ''four colossal creatures in a line.''

A New Age is a Pathfinder campaign set in a world [[AlternateUniverse Parallel to Golarion]] named Catheridge. Specifically on the continental islands known as Palagaia.

* DisproportionateRetribution: Mickey planted a dead mouse under Eliza's bed. In return, Eliza ''sawed a hole in Mickey's roof and put his bed on top of it.''

* DragonRider: The custom made Dragoon prestige class, along with the 5 Dragoons of Legend and the Generals of the Obsidian Army. More than half of the party is this trope now also. In fact, the only member who doesn't ride a dragon is Vincent, and he can ''become'' one.

* InterspeciesRomance: Floats around in the history and campaign in general. At least one of the 5 Dragoons of Legend got busy with their dragon mount. And 2 members of the party are in known romantic relations with their mounts.

* NoOneGetsLeftBehind: Ren has a pretty strict attendance policy. And most of the time refuses to have a session if so much as one character can't make it.

* RefugeInAudacity: The episode aptly named ''Refuge In Audactiy.'' When your players are talking about a ''foursome'' with each other, two of these characters being ''Dragons'' and one a ''Paladin'', you know some lines are being crossed

* WorldTree: In Ashwood. [[ShownTheirWork Appropriately, the actually Yggdrasil is said to be an Ash tree.]]

** EternalLove: Though Raus wouldn't mind if he could stay with Anna.

* RefugeInAudactity: The episode aptly named ''Refuge In Audactiy.'' When your players are talking about a ''foursome'' with each other, two of these characters being ''Dragons'' and one a ''Paladin'', you know some lines are being crossed

* ThatOneBoss/BestBossEver: Horizon. Opinion is split between the various players. The Sky Worm, however, is largely regarded as the best boss ever.
* TheBusCameBack: Eliza

* CerberusSyndrome: Surely yet slowly, the sessions have gone from happy-go-lucky comedic one shots to a serious and engaging plot.

* RuleOfFunny/[[RuleOfCool Cool]]: This is Ren we're talking about here, his DMing style thrives on it.

A series of what used to be one-shot {{Pathfinder}} adventures that are now slowly starting to come together in a plot. hosted by {{@/Renagade}}. A New Age is a Pathfinder campaign set in a world [[AlternateUniverse Parallel to Golarion]] named Catheridge. Specifically on the continental islands known as Palagaia.

However, as time went on for this guild, a looming threat, known as the Obsidian Army, slowly makes itself known to the adventurers. The army gathers in secret, plotting to bring about a war to rend the world asunder and plunge it back into darkness. Only time will tell what the adventurers will learn of the army, and what they can do to stop it.

* AdventureGuild: Where the party currently operates.

* BelligerentSexualTension: Starting to look like this between Mickey and Eliza.

* DoomedHometown: Desna's Gate was sacked by 3 dragon riders and a small force of knights. Suffice to say the heroes won't be staying there much longer.

* SuddenlySober: Most of the party get's raging drunk at every tavern they enter before realizing that there's actually an important conversation going on.

* WorldTree: In Ashwood. [[ShownThierWork Appropiately, the actually Yggdrasil is said to be an Ash tree.]]

* ClockworkCreatures: The Shrine of the Gold Orb was predominantly filled with Clockwork Golems.

* CatchPhrase: "Would you like to buy some fine leather coats?" [[hottip:*:Note: The selling of fine leather coats marks you as a merchant of death.]]

* DragonRider: The custom made Dragoon prestige class, along with the 5 Dragoons of Legend and the 3 riders who sacked Desna's Gate.

* IncrediblyLamePun: The entire party indulged in making "axe" jokes when Iria rolled a critical hit against a Bandit Second-in-command through a door.
* InterspeciesRomance: Floats around in the history and campaign in general. At least one of the 5 Dragoons of Legend got busy with their dragon mount.
* [[LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters Loads And Loads Of PCs:]] 11 of 'em, when they started! It has since then shrunk to a much more manageable 7, and again down to 5.

** TheHero: Vincent.

** TheChick: Orpheus.
** SixthRanger: Raus.

* PragmaticVillainy: The main reason the party as a whole isn't completely eliminated. Their already after what the villains are after, so better to let them gather all of the orbs, ''then kill them.'' Rather than just kill them outright.

* RedshirtArmy: The Desna Gate's guards. They were essentially there to die to show how powerful the dragon riders were.
