take it!
And yes, broadsword/longsword? In game they're the same thing. I had pondered making a broadsword do 2d4 damage instead of 1d8 (like in 1st edition) but decided it was too fussy. Unless someone would prefer that mechanic?
Right then, updated loot list!
-+1 guardian broadsword - the weapon's bonus can be allocated (as a free action) as a bonus to the user's saves. This choice is made at the beginning of the character's turn, each turn. The bonus stacks with all other bonuses. (Davin)
-composite longbow is +1, and is set for a +2 strength user
-composite longbow +2 (Davin)
-unidentified scimitar
-+1 courageous flail
-regular spear
-regular handaxe
-Masterwork Composite Longbow (Janiries)
-+1 longsword
-regular longbow
-Masterwork Plate
-Masterwork Chainmail
-Masterwork Studded Leather
-ring of feather falling. (Janiries)
-unidentified amulet
-ring of spell knowledge 1 (Nijena)
-3 small vials - a potion of enlarge person; a potion of cure light wounds; and a potion of protection from evil
-2 small scroll cases, stopped with wax with magic missile, and summon monster I scrolls inside. one ivory scroll case with an unidentified scroll inside.
-172gp, 12sp
-two small amethysts
Oh, and I had a vanilla longbow as well. You should go ahead and add that to the pot.
Have I tried to ID the amulet before? If not, I'll try now:
Nijena will give it a shot:

Given her will save of +1, I think the Mind Sentinel Medallion would be pretty useful for Janiries. Though boosting the fighters will save is always a big priority.
thats fine with me
Fine with me too. I guess I'll give in to reason and take the +1 comp.longbow with +2 Str, and drop off my MW light crossbow and its 20 bolts. We did have arrows for the bow, right?
Is the +1 included in the +2 Str damage, or on top of it?
Hezar has tons
Sorry, have to just ask: is Matthias proficient with the longbow?
Also, the +1 is on top of the strength bonus - composite bows rule! And I generally assume that you guys have ammo, within reason of course.
D'oh, you're right! He's not. I just had a brain fart about it. :P This is what I get for playing so many fighters and rangers.
OK, I'd better keep that crossbow!
Also, I kind of laid claim to the composite longbow. But if anyone else needs it, I'm more than happy to give it up again.

My brain flatulence knows no boundaries! It pushes me over tall buildings in a single blast! It penetrates the strongest iron will! It uses all my money and leaves me a crummy IOU.
I'm going to be away on Saturday, though unfortunately not for brainfart surgery.
Just a note that it's totally fine for characters to realize that Nijena didn't actually know ahead of time whether the fire would heal Davin...
When the party has just been forced into ignominious retreat, and is surrounded by corpses, that's always the best time for a little humor. :-)
Happy 4th of July to my American players! Hope you have a long weekend of fun and relaxation waiting for you!
Yes, Happy Treason Day you colonials! Enjoy your burgers and 'beer' :D
Traveling today, there may or may not be posts in games I am running, games I am playing in I will try to get something up!
I'm curious. Anyone here get a chance to read the new D&D 5th Edition rules?
Personally, I like 'em. I'm actually getting a little nutty waiting on the Starter Set box. Don't get it until next week.

I wasn't too interested in them until I read an interesting review the other day. Now I wouldn't mind taking a look at them, but as you say, there's a bit of time to wait yet.
Try downloading the free basic rules from here. It only includes the four base classes, a few races, no monsters or magic items; but it will allow you a pretty good look at the bones of the game. Im liking what I see, generally; a few quibbles, but overall good stuff.
Cheers Locke, I'll have a look.
The basic rules seem great, but without monsters I can't run anything. The Starter Set at least has an adventure. I'm looking forward to running it.

If anyone wants a copy of the last playtest packet (which does have monsters you can use in the interim, understanding the published versions may be different) I can upload it to my google drive and give you a link.
There's a lot I like with the basic rules. The background and lifestyle rules are nice to see.
I'll certainly pick up the starter set and run that at some point.
By the way, what advancement track are you guys using? Fast? Medium? Hard?
I think we're on the fast track, but I'm not 100% sure.
Sorry friends, had a little mishap at work and fractured my left elbow :-( Am back at home right now but exhausted; will resume regular posting soon. Typing one handed for the time being. Not that you'd notice the difference, of course.
Ouch, bad luck. I hope you recover quickly!
Yeah, sounds rough. Best wishes.

i dont wanna tell you how to live you life...but you shouldn't do that...
Feel better bud!!!
LOL :-) Final tally from my fall - a dislocated break of the lower humerus (not aptly named, in my experience), a dislocated shoulder and a fractured collarbone. Ouch! I'm riding a desk for at least the next month and a half :-(
I've got a couple of busy days coming up starting tomorrow, so feel free to DMPC Matthias if I don't manage to post.
taking a quick weekend trip and will not have my laptop, I might get some posts via phone but don't count on it. I might be MIA until Sunday evening.
If I am playing in your game please bot me as needed! If I am running the game fear not I shall return
My apologies again, had - let's call it a reaction to the painkillers I was on. As in, it felt like they weren't working so I took too many and had to go to the hospital.
Feeling better now, though!
Yowsa!
Living dangerously. Glad you're feeling better now, though!
Rough, man. Try not to do that again. It can't be much fun.
Seriously though I'm glad to hear you're doing better.

I'm glad nothing worse happened! Whew, you get into a lot of trouble. :P
You really have to stop getting hurt you know!
Hmm, time to look around for miscellaneous untyped +1 bonuses to certain skills.
I had asked earlier if anyone had interest, with the release of the ACG, in switching their class to one of the new ones in order to better fit your concept.
The classes are up on the srd here.
Take a look, and if you want to make a change message me and we'll work through it.
Kevkas might work as a warpriest. I'll have to look at the class some more.
Meh,
None of them combine Sorcerer with Monk. This leads me to believe there may be a reason for that... ;-)
Taking a prestige class might be a solution down the road for Nijena. Take a look at the prestige classes (including 3rd party) on the pathfinder srd and see if anything might fit a monk/sorc character. Worst case scenario, we could try and build one ourselves, using an existing prestige class as a basis.
Alternatively - there is a barb/sorc hybrid class, the bloodrager. We could strip out the barb-y bits and replace them with monk-y stuff.
Nijena, is your bloodline Empyreal? If so, then your spells already have a divine slant to them. In which case a War Priest that uses unarmed strike, might be just the thing.
Another option might be to stay multiclass but substitute your monk levels for brawler, which has full BAB and 4 skill points per level. That will help you a lot, I think.

Thanks, DM, I am going to take a closer look at the Hunter...depending on whether or not Apollo is still alive.
