There is a new darkness taking shape in the city. It's tendrils are stretching forth to greet the waiting world outside.

Good to have you back, Mr. Lavios. Be sure to read my post earlier in the thread re: post frequency and combat. Also, let me know how you want to make your appearance.
.
For Lavios & Phedron: Would you rather: - Join the group in combat as they make their way to the Abadar church?
- ...or join Agidor in exploring the rumors around town?
- ...or join Opillien as he and Ounura head over to the Imperial Offices to report the loss of his ship?
- ...pair up with Phedron to explore rumors on your own, and perhaps gain some knowledge from that mysterious book in his possession?

I did one thing not seeing Beckett's post - saw it, tried again.
I actually like the image of a glued and blood-lust frustrated Drogan turning and just gutting another one of them by proxy even better. ;)

Little bit of a delay on the post. Got back from church to find that our water heater is leaking. Gonna have to get a replacement. But I should have something for you guys later. I've got the maps updated already.

God is good, we caught it before it blew open. As is His way, we'd just finished a sermon on how God's glory is there to bring us thru the tough times, not around them. Very timely. Reminded us this a very minor blip in the grand scheme of things.

First off -
Holy crap and amen! Water heaters are jerks that way!
now for the game related question:
Since the goo has a max damage to cut myself off - do I have to make an attack roll to hit the goo at my feet? I mean - it's not sentient or moving. It's just a solid block of goo at my feet!
By the way - I HATE THE GOO!
Group Treasure ☨ Current Map
It's the hardness of the goo that's the bigger here. I'd say roll your attack so long as there's no 1, go forth and reap damage.
As for the goo, you guys are getting good with your characters. I'm feeling pretty froggy on having my npcs start using the tactics angle now. Heh, the goo is only the beginning.

Look at those freakin' dice rolls! The only one that was worth anything was damage against myself!

I am loving the story line, but I am especially interested in what's going to happen with Onura and gang. Suspense.

I've gotta test my rolls before posting. I usually pop them in and delete them rapidly. You've seen behind the curtain, pathfinder agents are on their way to your house. Please don't attempt to leave.

Holy moly! Go away for a couple of days and come back to 29 new posts!
I've got some reading to do!!!

No worries. Stick to your spoiler further up on the page. That's the only one you need to read.

Heh. Guess if the guy had a broken leg, I didn't need to offer up all my gold... :)
Always hard to tell if someone has diminished abilities from damage with the d20 hit point system.

Don't worry, ad hoc civilian lackeys are on discount this week for 25% of cost!
On aside note, I randomize wound locations offline as I'm writing the flavor text. With respect to pathfinder rules, I've always wanted to incorporate a % effectiveness chart for damage taken. Say a fighter is down to 5 hp out of 50, since he's at 10%, he's 10% effective in the field. So it translates to a 90% miss chance in combat. It's a far deadlier set up I'd never dream of inserting here, but future campaigns - shrugs - who knows?

Hey guys - I know we just got some crew back - but it's that most wonderful time of the year! I won't be GONE over the next week, but I'll be spotty.
I'll be traveling around with my wife visiting various family members 'til the 7th, so if I'm taking a day or so, that's why.

Hey brother that is a true paladin right there. Risking himself for the soul trapped in the ring. That was a bad ass movie scene in my head. You're gonna need that weapon, then charge. I like that.

You're dang skippy. A paladin standing the line, outnumbered 3 to 1? The stuff of stories.
Karl, Beckett & Drogan - I'll get you guys in next round. Giving the Knight a chance to shine.
Phedron, Lavios - Next actions?
If only the results were as awesome!!!
Roll a natural 1 on the first attack, and then a 2 on the second...
the dice hate me right now.

I'm just speechless... Guess we'll need to go 16 more rounds?

So is spoilers the right way to go here? I figured since I was the only party member in the battle that was how it should be. Let me know if I need to change.
Attack roll #3 is another 2!!!!!
I'm calling foul on the dice roller here :)
How can my Paladin have any epic moments with dice like this?
Group Treasure ☨ Current Map
We can un-spoiler at this point. The band is back together.
As for the dice roller, I've gone weeks with low rolls, but I too am getting the impression that the dice roller here hates you. The again, I've seen the same run of bad luck in my meatspace games.
All I can say is keep slinging!

Busy day that included seeing the Hobbit conclusion (awesome) and ended with a massive headache (historically not awesome). Post coming tomorrow morning.
