So long as all of you are available we certainly are.

This group is too roleplay heavy for me to feel comfortable 'botting' somebody.

Ability Drain

Ability drain actually reduces the relevant ability score. Modify all skills and statistics related to that ability. This might cause you to lose skill points, hit points, and other bonuses. Ability drain can be healed through the use of spells such as restoration.

Ability Score Damage

Diseases, poisons, spells, and other abilities can all deal damage directly to your ability scores. This damage does not actually reduce an ability, but it does apply a penalty to the skills and statistics that are based on that ability.

For every 2 points of damage you take to a single ability, apply a –1 penalty to skills and statistics listed with the relevant ability. If the amount of ability damage you have taken equals or exceeds your ability score, you immediately fall unconscious until the damage is less than your ability score. The only exception to this is your Constitution score. If the damage to your Constitution is equal to or greater than your Constitution score, you die. Unless otherwise noted, damage to your ability scores is healed at the rate of 1 per day to each ability score that has been damaged. Ability damage can be healed through the use of spells, such as lesser restoration.

Strength: Damage to your Strength score causes you to take penalties on Strength-based skill checks, melee attack rolls, and weapon damage rolls (if they rely on Strength). The penalty also applies to your Combat Maneuver Bonus (if you are Small or larger) and your Combat Maneuver Defense. A character with a Strength score of 0 is too weak to move in any way and is unconscious. Some creatures do not possess a Strength score and have no modifier at all to Strength-based skills or checks.

Strength drain doesn't kill you
just knocks you unconscious


Kitsune Game Master

He was dead after the first failed safe and this had nothing to do with the poison.

As I wrote: He is dead and has a Strength score of 0.


F Azlanti Pally 8 ___ HP 63_____2 Negative Levels

what ability is that?


Kitsune Game Master

Assassins death attack. One shitty roll and you're dead.

You see why I wanted that for Tauriell?


F Azlanti Pally 8 ___ HP 63_____2 Negative Levels

Indeed I do
That is seriously powerful

Also, our first full character death
Shit


Kitsune Game Master

What do you mean first? You've been killed. And this one will be considerably easier to fix.


F Azlanti Pally 8 ___ HP 63_____2 Negative Levels

Except I didnt actually cease to be a character
I atleast was brought back to life immediately


Kitsune Game Master

Also I always thought poisons were shitty. But if there is no one around to cure that quickly? Screwed.


Kitsune Game Master

As soon as I have more time Tauriell will carry him to the next temple. Raise dead is pretty low level compared to what you need.


F Azlanti Pally 8 ___ HP 63_____2 Negative Levels

The problem is more that at higher levels the dc's should become very easy to beat

Fort is like Abomentollors worst save.


Kitsune Game Master

But to one hit a level 8 character as rogue 5/ assassin 1 for 250gp is bad ass. And the DC is 10 + int mod + assassin levels. If you really want it you can push that pretty high. Build an investigator that can make a roll count with the additional 1d6 to the attack with int 18 and some magic item to increase that. At level 8 where we are you could have a DC of 18 already without breaking a sweat.

It is not as powerful as I made it to be in game as you need to make a melee attack. That makes it a bit harder to study for three rounds with true seeing at higher levels.


F Azlanti Pally 8 ___ HP 63_____2 Negative Levels

Agreed, it is very good for players in RP scenarios, harder for npcs


Kitsune Game Master

Actually I meant it to be harder for players, as a lot of the high level outsiders have constant true seeing. As a player you have almost no chance to prepare yourself for such an attack.

Besides walking around in a permanent force cage.


F Azlanti Pally 8 ___ HP 63_____2 Negative Levels

If it has to be a melee attack you just keep your eyes open for people following you
or people you are socializing with


Kitsune Game Master

You can just stand there invisible at the corner and stab someone coming past. And you can check for a week which corner he always comes along. Stab him while he pays for the grilled chicken he buys every Tuesday on the market. If you don't expect it you have no chance. If you expect it you'd better be a high level diviner or have some luck and misfortune abilities to force rerolls.

Or you have some clones lying around.


F Azlanti Pally 8 ___ HP 63_____2 Negative Levels

Suppose so


Female Halfling Bard (10)

Do you still know how much money Niamh gets?


F Azlanti Pally 8 ___ HP 63_____2 Negative Levels

16300.67824


Female Halfling Bard (10)

Wrong alias again :o)


Male Human Pally 10 ___ HP 85

Yeahyeah


Male Human Pally 10 ___ HP 85

I am not sure how far I want to take Jimmy finding out which god it is.

Have you decided which it is?


Kitsune Game Master

Why should I? I'm just throwing options at you. If you stay in the fog, or want to come out and place a gods symbol on your armor is up to you.


Male Human Pally 10 ___ HP 85

At no point do I think Jimmy is going to become a typical paladin
As in holy symbols and such.

I think it would be a cool sort of sideplot you could get into if you wanted


Kitsune Game Master

Good morning.
It seems you have missed that someone is standing at Harrold's door knocking.


Kitsune Game Master

Also I remembered that some paladin carries still some silver bracers around since lvl 2.


Male Human Pally 10 ___ HP 85

Yeah yeah, I know I still have them


Kitsune Game Master

What archetype of paladin is Jimmy?


Male Human Pally 10 ___ HP 85

He isn't, why?


Kitsune Game Master

You said something about some oath instead of a deity. I thought this were an archetype.


Male Human Pally 10 ___ HP 85

Oh, I said that by the book the paladin doesn't actually have to worship a god
they can instead embody an ideal


Male Human Pally 10 ___ HP 85

Very nicely wrapped up


Kitsune Game Master

I'm throwing in the opening of the two temples now.
How did your exam go?


Male Human Pally 10 ___ HP 85

Mind my french:
Absolutely f@&+ing shite


Kitsune Game Master

Skype?


Male Human Pally 10 ___ HP 85

Sure


Kitsune Game Master

There is a little sidequest for Jimmy.
Some glass golem is standing around in Underbridge waiting for new commands from a certain runelord. What are you going to do about that?


Male Human Pally 10 ___ HP 85

Forgot about that
Might disguise self and bluff fool it? At some point I thought I told it to follow Gwen's orders?


Kitsune Game Master

It's mostly about the forgot part. There are quite some possibilities. You just have to decide if you want to keep it, or if you send it back. Or place it as a statue in front of the orphanage.

But if some poor soul wants to enter the temple now without being accompanied by someone from the group then an old order of yours could have unwanted consequences.


Male Human Pally 10 ___ HP 85

Very definately. Hmmm. Do you remember who it will listen to at the moment


Kitsune Game Master

No. I would have to look it up too.

Drama:
Jimmy and Gwen enter Mrs. Heidmarch's office.
Gwen: We need to change Jimmy into Runelord Sorshen.
Heidm.: What?
Gwen: Only temporarily, we forgot about the glass golem that only takes orders from the runelord that stands in Underbridge.
Heidm.: Banging head on desk.


Male Human Pally 10 ___ HP 85

Well that is one way to do it. I will have a search quickly


Kitsune Game Master

That is a way it will not be done. That would be much too embarrassing for Gwen. And disguise self is a first level spell. For 25 gold you can have a potion that lasts for 10 minutes.


Male Human Pally 10 ___ HP 85

The last order I can find myself giving it was hauling large bits of debri


Male Human Pally 10 ___ HP 85

Just found this "He then goes outside and commands the golem to stand outside the front of the temple, and that if anyone hits Carl, it must subdue them."
Which gets updated to ""You are right. Ok. I can get it to attack someone you command it to. Don't do anything you might regret later." Jimmy tells Carl, and then updates the Golem's orders, specifying non lethal attacks"


Kitsune Game Master

Sorry, my bad. Disguise self can't be made into a potion and can not be cast on someone else. Only on yourself. So either you learn magic, or you buy/rent/borrow a hat of disguise.


Male Human Pally 10 ___ HP 85

Time to go ask our friendly gnomish shop keep


Male Human Pally 10 ___ HP 85

It doesn't stop people from going inside, or at least I can't find the post


Kitsune Game Master

Disguise self doesn't change your voice. That could become an issue. You'd have to fake a throat ache or something ;)
