Quiver of Recall already exists, and has a special addendum for Marksman class. 2,000 gp.

You might want to hold off on craft components until you are somewhere with sane prices. :)
As far as I can tell, we have the following characters still...
Adraniel
Alys
Connor
Flick
Roderick
I'm not sure about Elara, she hasn't posted in a month (although her player is active in another game I'm in). I've sent a second PM and asked, if no response, I'll remove her from the game.
We know Rory is dropping out (good luck Tark if you're still watching).
Five is certainly more than enough players.
Before I take us off on another story arc, I thought I'd ask what you're interested in? There's several ways I can go with the story at this point, so do you have any preferences?
Connor of McIntyre |
Ok, holding off on craft components, darn. Just a lot of gold pieces.
Plot points:
- Healing Flick
- Tefna's legacy
- Another smuggler thread? Did we complete the current one given by our 'tel Mintakia bosses? I'm thinking the northern city of Siltharv on Anrive is NOT the place to go, because that's where I think the lizardmen, or Strix, or both, came from.
Given our, uh, "reputation", it might be better to strike out for a less well-known location. Anrive has too much Strix on it (Siltharv to the North, they just had a war with free port Anshrin here; Lithian to the South sounds worse, if that's possible). The only other inhabited island we haven't been to is Antalus, and that's full of Chaotic clans. But they have Halvavians there.
Adraniel |
We could also give the Stalmorta information on the city and why their attack was defeated and details on the city defense. Seems like valuable information.
Connor of McIntyre |
Elara has indeed left.
You'll need to find more crew to keep the ship running with just 5 PCs. I strongly suggest NPCs...
Everyone can level up now.
Whoo-hoo! Leveling! Wait. That's a lot of work for my Shaper, I have to re-do all the stats on my astral constructs! Give me a few days to finish. :)
Do we need to hang out the "HIRING" sign?
mdt |
Up to you, you can hobble the ship along with the former PCs, but once they leave, you'll be unable to fly the ship. Where you get crew is up to you, although with the turmoil right now, crew recruits will be... iffy for a while. :)
Connor of McIntyre |
Grumble, grumble. Given the 'war' status, the good sailors hire on with the government ships, or better yet, mercenaries. We'll get the dregs of the pickings. (again) Maybe we should start making the 'pitch' for sailors about to retire...
Leveling up...Connor is qualified for and chooses the Psicrystal Imprinter prestige class, which means he gets no new powers or points this level, just skill points. But Connor can start etching new powers into Hero (hold still, you). I figure since we're on a ship Connor might as well keep upping his Profession: Sailor as well as the crafting skills. Connor's hp is really low, half of what I'm usually at for Level 6 (can't even take a 50-point hit). Where's Vigor when you need it?
Still leveling.
Elrohir |
Can our two former PCs become NPC crew, or is that somehow not allowed?
Also, should I level as well?
mdt |
They're a bit powerful for NPCs. Especially at level 6.
You could also report in, and ask if your bosses can assign some crew...
Next level, someone could take Leadership to get a crew...
And yeah, go ahead, I figure he's been through enough to have learned stuff
Connor of McIntyre |
Leadership is a funny feat; GMs have in the past, both in RL and on the Pazio messageboards, been as heavy-handed as making a Cohort and Followers GM-controlled NPCs, or as hands-off as having the PCs make PCs out of them and run them at the table as full PCs.
If we need Leadership, then Connor's the obvious choice, and I'll take the feat, even though I was planning on taking Scribe Psionic Tattoo. I'm all about planning a PC ahead to Level 20, but I'm also about the needs of the team.
Let me finish by saying I'm glad people are staying on, and coming back as well. We almost stopped the game on my birthday in April (I'm 44 now), and that was starting to get depressing for me. You guys (and mdt) are a really good gaming team. Please stick around for several more years!

I'm done leveling my character sheet. Another reason I was so gung-ho to get power stone crafting materials: that's how I add powers to Hero. I have enough to make one Gladiator's Guaze, or add one 0-level or 1st-level power to my psicrystal.
Who needs Gladiator's Gauze?
Roderick MacDuncan |
I don't have any at the moment, so it might not be bad to add some. Up to you if you need to add more powers to Hero though. :) I can heal myself ok-ish.
Level 6 - Investigator (empiricist)
- +6 HP (4 level, 2 CON)
- +1 all saves
- +1 BAB
- +11 skill points [5 ranks bluff, 1 rank Acrobatics, 1 rank Diplomacy, 1 rank Sense Motive, 1 rank Craft(Alchemy), 1 rank Know(Arcana), and 1 rank Know(Dungeoneering)]
- Trap Sense +2
- Studied Strike +2d6
- +1 Inspiration
- +1 Studied combat
- +4 base power points/day
- +2 INT power points/day
- +1 formulae known(Energy Adaptation, Specified)
My sheet should now reflect all of the above.
Connor of McIntyre |
I think if Alys chimes in with her leveling and getting onboard the ship again, I think we can shove off.
Alys |
Levelled up. Mostly just more numbers but also chose the Additional Configurations blade skill for an alternate mind bolt with shock instead of distance.
As far as levelling I've been done for a while.
And just posted.
Adraniel |
I like the war soul a lot. There are astral suit augmentations now in path of war expanded. I don't need to retrain just change my suit points.
Connor of McIntyre |
Do I need to get Ultimate Psionics Revised? I'm seeing new powers on the d20pfsrd web site. I know it's been a few years (2014) since the Ultimate Psionics came out, but I'm trying to avoid the "3.0 vs. 3.5" moment with Dreamscarred Press.
Alys |
I will look into the war soul and see if it makes sense to retrain both my archetypes or only the gifted blade (since that's the only one that conflicts with it as far as i could see)
Roderick MacDuncan |
What exactly is Alsatia asking at the end of her speech, with the telepath? I'm not really getting it.
""Before I decide what to do with you, I need to know what you know. I could call in a telepath, if you prefer... Or is there something specific you want?"
She seems to be talking about needing to do some sort of memory swap? But the last bit about what we prefer trips that up for me. Either way, replies tomorrow after I finish parsing Conner's monstrous post.
Elrohir |
Sorry, I was away all weekend. Meant to say something but honestly expected to be able to post. Omw to work, will reply once I get home.
mdt |
NP, and just in case it didn't come off right in the post, her offer was more about letting Flick off on having to talk about something painful. IE: If you don't want to air it all in public, I can get in a telepath to give me the details without you having to go over it yourself.
Connor of McIntyre |
Just saw the WBL to Level 6 notice. Yay! Give me a day or two to re-arrange my spreadsheet on Connor's stuff. NOW he can spend all that gold we got!
Obviously he needs crafting material, and we just got another week off, so he's got plenty of time to craft low-level stuff for 1/2 price.
Roderick MacDuncan |
Willing to go in with Roderick for a alchemist's lab, portable.
I actually have a portable one, the kind of lab I was asking Alsatia about was this one: Alchemist's Lab They are room sized, which is a bit inconvenient for travelling with, but if we're going to have a long term base of operations, this would be handy. :)
Connor of McIntyre |
That one sounds like a major installment on the airship Elephant. 200 gp isn't too bad.
And making a slight adjustment to my purchases:
antidote kit (10 uses) (100 gp, 3 lbs) (Ulti. Equip.)
Adraniel |
Just making bow +1. Will have 700ish gp remaining.
Connor of McIntyre |
I have 178 gp remaining. I'm also loaded for crafting now. Time to survey everyone's char sheets again and see who needs what. :)
What's the best power to stop a runaway airship, like our last battle?
Elrohir |
Sorry, been crazy busy with packing my house up to move. Gotta be out by next Wed. Will try to post later.
Roderick MacDuncan |
Updated my character sheet fully (in theory). Picked up a +2 INT headband, another pistol, and some misc small stuff.
Connor of McIntyre |
Wish I had the moola to pick up a +2 INT headband. More skill points, more psionic power points! Ah, well. Extradimensional storage and/or strength buffs come first.
mdt |
Sorry folks, I was absolutely slammed at work.
I'll also be on the road for the next 3 weeks, so updates will be a bit sparser as we do our first test run for the current client.
MonkeyGod hasn't posted, so we'll skip on ahead and let him post again when he can and retcon responses.
Connor of McIntyre |
I'll be at South Carolina's North Strand beach this weekend (03-05 June), but I will be taking my Mi-Fi device & laptop with me, just in case.
Alys |
I'm sorry i haven't been around for over a month. I just read up on the gameplay thread.
Can someone tell me how much gold each of us got since defeating the smugglers?
Connor of McIntyre |
Just saw the WBL to Level 6 notice. Yay! Give me a day or two to re-arrange my spreadsheet on Connor's stuff. NOW he can spend all that gold we got!
Obviously he needs crafting material, and we just got another week off, so he's got plenty of time to craft low-level stuff for 1/2 price.
Alys, the loot divided up was 2,439.18 gp each (before Flick joined). What mdt said was:
Those who are under WBL, or who want to change out equipment, can do so. This includes picking up firearms... Remember the firearms use the rules in the campaign tab, not the default rules.
So what I did with Connor was first buy everything that I wanted with the gold pieces, then got myself up to WBL afterwards. Which basically came down to a Psionic Bag of Holding for him, and a whole bunch of crafting materials, which Connor immediately put into Hero as additional powers.
mdt |
Sorry I haven't been posting, I've been working 50+ hours a week, plus travel, plus being exhausted and/or sick on the weekends from overworking.
Things should start to return to normal again next week.
Is everyone ready to move forward? Everyone leveled up?
Connor of McIntyre |
Good here. Looking forward to new experiences!
Roderick MacDuncan |
Locked'n'loaded.
