GD VI: You Only Die Twice High Tier (Inactive)

Game Master Awenydd83

Hello all, and welcome to my table for You Only Die Twice! Dot in and make merry, its going to be a bit of a wait until Oct 6th when this kicks off.
I will be opening the gameplay for dotting as well so that this will show on everyones gameplay tab for notifications!

Looking forward to it! Dotted and deleted.

Figured I would bring a buffer to the party!!

Here is the Undead Template that you will be applying to your characters. Also, I have made the maps link active, so please move a copy of your picture onto the first slide, and fill out the dice templates.

Sorry for the long wait.. 2 months and counting!!

Undead! That doesn't sound good lol. I assume we need to wait till told to add the template in game? Or should we start with it applied already?

OK, I should have my token and dice info on the map thingy now.

Go ahead and apply the template now.. it will save a bit of time at start up.

The only adjustment I really see it the +2 natural armor bonus, right?

So, as a positive-energy channeling-based healer, it looks like it will actually kill us to do that. Am I correct, or am I hopefully misreading it?

Doesn't seem like you are. You might want to field another character for this.

Channeling energy to HEAL doesn't hurt anyone in any case (with rare exceptions) - but yes, you channel to HARM undead, you'll harm us all (unless you have Selective Channeling).

@DM: I don't suppose you'd be willing to rule that alchemical infusions of cure wounds aren't positive energy-based, and work on either side of the coin? Otherwise it would be a bummer that Alchemists don't get inflict wounds formulae.

This is going to be very strange, and I expect difficult with healing working as it does. The fact that I am a Pharasman is going to be interesting as well, what with the way we feel about undead. I can't wait to see where this goes. ;)

I modified the marching order and shifted everyone back one and I took the lead spot. Vex is a sharp eyed scout and he is hard to spot so unless otherwise stated, he will take point and he has Trap Spotter. When actively searching he normally just takes 10 on perception checks for a 38 or a 43/45 for traps/magic traps.

Well, unfortunately, its this or a pregen. Still have some time to figure this out though.

Jaysin: Essentially. If you so desire, you may use claw and bite attacks as well... so if someone were so inclined to "go native".. well, the number one rule is to have fun, after all!! Don't forget the darkvision, either!

Caduceus: That is correct.. you will be harmed by positive energy while this template is active. You will not start out as undead though.. so get through the briefing before you make too many decisions here. I am sure it will work out. Besides.. part of the fun (IMHO) of Paladins is to place them in questionable scenarios and to watch them work through the problems and find solutions that will allow them to participate without compromising their duty!

Dr. Zyphyrus: Unfortunately, the scenario takes that ruling away from me. Any "Cure" anything will act as an "Inflict" while the template is active. The text does not specifically address mutagens and extracts, but the intent is made extremely clear.

Vex: You have NO idea.. I can't wait to see how this plays out.

Sounds like a wand of infernal healing or two will be in order.. Or inflict light i suppose..

I will be traveling from Saturday morning until Weds. night (driving up north to see the eclipse). I will try to check in at least once a day, but if I miss a post time, please feel free to bot me to keep the flow going. I don't want to hold up the game.

Shouldn't affect this game which doesn't start til the 25th, just posting this in all my games... just in case.

This game is actually in the second session of Game Day VI so it starts in October. You should be completely fine.

Unless something has changed and we are actually starting on Aug 25th?

ah... I'd forgotten we were in for part 2... I'm fine with that.

Vex: You are correct.. This game will start during part II.

K'Kei: Stay safe, and enjoy your travels!

Eight days and counting!! If you wouldn't mind, please pop in and let me know that you are still with me here. I see that the dice template and the pictures have all been taken care of.. for that, I thank ye kindly!!

In addition, please make any dayjob checks that you have, then Pop over here and fill out your reporting information so that I can get a jump on the chronicles.

If all goes well, I don't expect this game to take overly long, as long as we keep up our post rate. Speaking of post rate, for those that have not played in one of my games, a few notes about my posting:
Both of my jobs are night shift, so I am almost completely nocturnal. That means that most of my posts will be in the overnight or early morning hours (US time). Fri-Sun, I work at a computer and post prolifically through the night. Mon-Thurs not so much, and either early afternoon when I wake up or after around 3 am CDT. Mon nights and some Tues will see sparse posting from me for multiple reasons, but everyone is entitled to a night away from the computer, right?

Anyways, I hope you enjoy this game and we all have some fun!

"IT'S ALIIIIIIIVE!!!"

Craft (Alchemy): 1d20 + 26 ⇒ (8) + 26 = 34 I have a folio reroll I'll want to use on that, if nothing else.

Day Job Craft(Alchemy): 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (15) + 18 = 33

Oratory: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (13) + 18 = 31

Updated the excel sheet with stuffs :).. Looking forward to this!

Question GM, does this undead template that we are taking on make us immune to my morale effects from Flagbearer and Heroism spell etc? I think per RAW normal undead are. Just not sure we we fall on the spectrum.

day job, perform dance, take 10: 10 + 12 = 22

Still here, hopefully ready by the 6th.

Assuming the other game finishes in time I'll be ready.

same here, actually... Hikaru is in a game for part one of GD... Hope it finishes on time.

Day job (Diplomacy): 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (19) + 18 = 37

Day Job (Bows): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15

Floggentop: Per the spell description of Undead Anatomy: In this form, you detect as an undead creature (such as with detect undead, but not with magic that reveals your true form, such as true seeing) and are treated as undead for the purposes of channeled energy, cure spells, and inflict spells, but not for other effects that specifically target or react differently to undead (such as searing light). Emphasis mine

I will rule that your class abilities and spells will work as per normal with regards to the heroism and flag bearer.

For anyone currently in a game: This being a gameday, I understand the press and volume of games being played right now, and therefore the varied schedules. If you are at such a point in your other game that combat is over and there is no chance of your character dying or having any leftover effects, you may start in this game. If your game is not yet at that point, we will push the start date until you are. There is no need to rush or to exclude people from enjoying this or any other game and I am pretty fluid with being able to adapt things to suit everyone. The only thing I emphatically ask is respect for the first condition, and to pop in and let us know your status so that I don't kick off too early for you, and that we do get started in a timely manner.

Hikaru is still in an active game... no idea when our endpoint will be, but hoping by end of part I... will let you know as things develop.

So now that the special is over, how many are still in games?

Wait, what? Which special are we talking about? Didn't the "special" just begin?

In any case, Dr. Vitruvian's been ready and waiting this whole time.

Hikaru's previous game is in the final encounter phase... not sure how long it will take... have to beat one minotaur and one brimorak.

Dr. Zephyrus: One session of Solstice Scar has been running and just finished. The session about to begin was added when there were so many on the wait list that didn't get a game the first time around.

Duh. Right.

I am free to start at any time. I have had a great gameday experience so far with all my characters, but I kept this one free for this game. It should be exceptionally challenging.

Ready List:
Greymore: GTG
IHIYC: GTG
JAFO: Almost
RychyRych: ??
TriShadow: ??
WerePox47: ??

I am ready to serve.

Now I have a Warcraft voice in my head. Thanks for that Duce!

Ready to go but im working all weekend and monday in a noservice area so not much psting till monday night/tues for me.

I'm ready, just got my chronicle for the last session.

JAFO: We can slow roll the start here to give you an opportunity to RP and get started while waiting for your other game to end.

ok.. that's fine...

I have been having computer troubles, and this is the first time I have been able to log in since this weekend on the work computers. I do apologize for this interruption. If I am a player, please bot me until I can establish a permanent connection, and if I am the GM, I will be back just as quickly as I can. I have made progress with the software, but will be tearing apart the hardware tonight

I'm official here now.... finally got my chronicle from the other game... sorry about the delay.

JAFO and RychyRych, could you please Follow this link and fill out your reporting information please?

Done.

done too.

Whaddya know, this would be the first time a Pathfinder Society adventure's actually managed to inspire something resembling horror in me - reminds me of an "O. Henry"-style short story I wrote years ago about an alien fast-food franchise factory-farming human stock (granted, I took it a great deal further).
