Dotting in for now, have characters from lvl 1 to 4 available. Thanks for making this happening!
Something to keep in mind for anyone signing up at level 1 or 2. Part III is Tier 3-7. If you're not level 3 by the end of part II, that character can't join in for part 3.
Dotting for now, will bring either level 3 psychic or unchained rogue depending on others.
I have a aerokineticist who is a ranged stealth disable device build, but that seems to be partly covered. I also have a melee tank occultist who is quite knowledgeable, which seems to be missing now? Any preferences?

I'd say go for the character you'd like to play the most, even if I'm partial and would love to play alongside Bamberg or Hikari (the two characters I've GMed for).

This has got to be the longest I've taken to decide which character to play. :p Finally decided to go with Fung, my aerokineticist, just because it would be most thematically appropriate.
Khalib, unfortuntately Hikari is currently heading to Blloodcove and is indisposed right now. Bambang took quite a bit of beating from BuA so I should probably let him rest a while. :)
Name: Xuan Fung
Character name & levels: Kineticist (Air) 3

Faction: Grand Lodge
Day job:
Also sorry bad timing but I'm traveling til Sunday so my posting would be slower. Also, haven't updated his character sheet since the last game. Will do so on Sunday when I return. (posting now on mobile)

Ekujae’s Blessing: You rescued Ekujae from the forbidden caves of Dehu Inu, and the Ekujae elders granted you a ceremonial blessing. You gain the permanent benefits of endure elements but only in the heat and only to temperatures of 110 degrees F and below; you gain no bonuses in extreme cold. This is a supernatural ability.

Question for GM. Fung has thundering infusion, as follows.
Your lightning brings with it a peal of thunder. Whenever your infused blast hits a foe and penetrates spell resistance, that foe becomes deafened, even if the blast doesn’t deal damage.
Since the sandman is standing beside Nemis, if I blast the sandman with a thundering infusion, is there a chance it would wake Nemis?

Slapping or wounding awakens an affected creature, but normal noise does not. Awakening a creature is a standard action (an application of the aid another action).
It's not clear to me too. Thundering isn't "normal" noise. But awakening a creature is a standard action. I probably would rule it that there is a chance, granted some sort of check is passed.

I will probably post a bit less in the coming days since I have a couple of very busy days ahead of me. Our eldest son did not get into the high school he wanted to join. Now we have to choose again from the schools that are left. Needless to say his second and third choices are also not available anymore, so we have our work cut out for us.
In our city you apply for 1 school. If there are more applicants than places there is a lottery. After the lottery you can apply again for the schools that still have places available (and then also indicate 2nd to 4th choices). The schools will take care that everybody is placed in the second round. Problem is that the weakest schools tend to be left...

I'm not sure how balanced some of the occult classes are though. Especially the telekinesis basied ones - a CON based caster? They do however remind me a lot of the 3.5 Warlock, which I thought over powered to begin with (essentially could blast at will, which back then was a Big Thing) but eventually decided wasn't quite so overwhelming.

To be honest, I have been rather underwhelmed with my aerokineticist for a while, because many of his abilities are rather situational. Most games just involved him moving around and shooting lightning bolts. It has only been in this scenario that they have come in useful. In fact, this is his first scenario where air's leap (the one where he doubles his jump distance), and thundering infusion (the deafening one) has had some utility. His only other ability is to increase his blast range from 30ft to 120 ft, something bow users can already do by default.
Blast-wise, it is has some limitations comparing to what bow users can do. Kineticists can't get many of the nice ranged feats like deadly aim, rapid shot, etc and also can't enchant their weapons. So while damage scales well, the to hit will lag behind. One way is to get energy blasts instead of physical blasts which then targets touch AC, but you lose out on damage. Also, should a creature be resistant or immune to electricity, or have good SR, Fung would become completely useless.
The burn cost also limits the kineticists. Unlike actual spellcasters, kineticists take damage everytime they use abilities beyond a certain baseline. And it is damage that can't be healed.
So basically, some good points but also quite a bit of limitations. What I like though very much about the occult classes is the flavour. Other than Fung, my other one is an occulist which is great fun! So many options!

Quick check for Faction Journal Cards (scarab sages)
(season 7, preferred)
I don't suppose any of those folk we encountered (maybe the one at the end) counts as a scolar or archaeologist ?
Did we find any gems (work 700gp?)
(season 8)
Did the leader at the end count as an extraplanar authority (or similar figure)
I'm guessing we did successfully conclude an encounter with an elemental creature, so that is my check of last resort!
--
Toctep, how do you purchase a belt of constitution with PP? I thought the limit was 750gp?

Sorry I think I posted it on the first Page, but Felicitas needs to be on slow track, otherwise she will ding 6 now. Could you please amend this.
You did. I forgot about that! I'll amend it soon. Will post here when I've updated it.
@Belinda,
you didn't meet any of those season 7 goals. I didn't emphasis or even put it on but you did find 5 gems, worth 50gp each, in the chest. Did not think it played significance since goal is reflected in your chronicle but I guess I was wrong!
Yes, she does count as an extraplanar authority.
