Yeah, I finally got internet back this morning and then had to wait another hour for Paizo to get back up and running.
As a warning I'm going to be gone the 13th - 17th for GenCon.
Getting ready to head off to GenCon. I will resume posting Sun. night or Mon. morning.
Heading off to GenCon and won't be able to post much for the rest of the week-weekend. I know Tek will be there too but just wanted to alert everyone that I might not be around until next week.
Bummed I didn't get a chance to meet Pirate Rob. I went down to the card demo a couple times, but didn't see you. Maybe next time.
Yep, me either. Come find the Tek/EF duo next year, Rob!
I spent about half my working hours down in the dealer's hall demoing the ACG and the other half working on Organized Play up in 232, sorry to have missed you guys.
Something something PK ;)
Could get exciting!
It is a dangerous profession! Has to go poorly sometime.
I will be flying tomorrow, and on a work trip until the 20th. I will have internet, but my expediency in posting may suffer.
Thanks!
I'm going to be out of town and have limited connectivity Sept 4-8
Please apply the chronicle sheet to 7514-5. (Yes, he is in tier)
Since it's 1-2 I will apply the chronicle to Skip Flaxseed (#55162-21). He's also my only level 1 not counting Melody Flaxseed, who's committed to Emerald Spire likely for the duration of her career. I guess I need a new level 1 already but I can't decide what to make.
Shamans are pretty neat :)
15001-19 Liberty's Edge
I am back in town, but my sister is in the hospital, I'm not sure when I'll be able to post next. Feel free to NPC me or whatever else needs to be done etc.
@Pirate: hope everything is ok!
I changed my mind; apply this to 55162-23 Harun al-Rashid. I need to keep Skip level 1 for Rah's halflinder society.
Amusingly enough, I have a character named Hassam al-Rashid... I don't suppose you also happen to be from Rahadoum?
No, Qadiran sultan.
Harun al-Rashid was a real Arabic leader who features heavily in Tales of the Arabian Nights, which I've been working my way through. I've also got a bard named Shahrazad, who is the main story-teller of the Tales.
Thank you for the kind wishes. It may be several weeks (or more) till things are back to normal enough around here for me to keep up with pbps, so please feel free to continue without me, or whatever else needs to be done.
My sister was diagnosed with terminal cancer about 3 years ago and given a prognosis of likely less than a year. She's done remarkably well until this last week when she had to be hospitalized. We're not sure how long she has left, but I am doing what I can to help take care of our mother and her kids.
My best wishes for you and your family.
As I said in the other thread, I hope the best for your and your family Rob.
I'm going to NPC Ankhef a bit, in order to get you guys through this last level.
Side Note: I will be away this weekend, taking the family camping. Likely won't have any meaningful posts until Sun. eve.
With the update to "Google Sheets" (ugh), the links on the LOOT sheet aren't working right. It just takes me to my "Sheets" page that shows ALL the spreadsheets in my Drive or that I have ever looked at. Could someone fix that if possible?
Seherab would like to (potentially) sell his armor and a weapon or two to get masterwork versions if we have the gold to do so.
That's weird; it opens for, even when I'm signed out of both Paizo and docs. I have no answer for you.
I am happy to handle the bookkeeping though; I've been told my sheet is indecipherable. ;)
I currently have Seherab listed as having:
Seherab Armor, Akhentepi's (Padded) (+1 stanching armor (stops up to 1 bleed); 1/day +3 on initiative. AC 2. ACP 0. 8 dex. 5% failure. Light.)
Seherab Armor, Studded Leather
Weapon, Light Mace
Weapon, Short Bow
Weapon, Short Sword
Weapon, Dagger
What would you like to sell? What do you want to upgrade (we can just buy masterwork transformations. This isn't pfs - unless you want to change materials of course. :)
I'm recalculating money now; it comes to about 1544 for the four of use, so on the order of ~300 - 400 each. Teos doesn't particularly need anything right now, and can do without (Yay monks!) - if you guys want masterwork something, go for it.
*****************************************************
The idea about keeping the mummified guardian is interesting. I can definitely see your angle. Here are my objections from a bookkeeping standpoint:
-It's 3500 gp. Selling it doubles our party wealth.
-Using it requires a coffin or box. Which maybe isn't that big of a deal; we are dwarves after all :)
-we can get much the same effect with a scroll or two of gentle repose (although only the oracle can use it).
Yeah, that's fine, we can sell the mummified cat. It just always hurts me a little to sell AP-specific items because they're usually kinda unique and fun (although admittedly not always useful). Like that padded armor; it's not as good AC-wise as my studded leather but I'm having trouble parting with it. I can't decide if it's worth the -1 AC to put it on for it's other abilities.
For now I'll definitely get a mwk transformation on my shortsword and leave it at that. I'll wait for your opinion(s) on my armor before doing anything there.
Oh, and I actually do like your sheets although they have a bit of a learning curve. I'm not sure why the links just take me to a list of my many many spreadsheets but I'll play around with it later.
I'm just giving you my breakdown. I have no personal investment one way or the other. We can keep the cat... after all, Kitty!
Neh, the cat's a little more icky than the armor, which is actually a little more useful. Like you said, we can replicate any benefit we'd get from the cat with a couple scrolls. The armor would be a hit to AC but it'd give me a few other (small) benefits that might be worth it for a level or two.
But I think in the end we should sell it. I'll keep my studded leather for now and just masterwork my shortsword.
Oh, hey, we have a 3rd level druid now who can cast Mwk. transformation for us! Handy!
So, I went through with a finer tooth comb and it turns out we have a lot more money after selling a few magic items that aren't really useful for this group.
After the transformation on the sword, selling the cat mummy and armor we still have 6900 left over. I recommend casters build up their scroll libraries.
I don't really know what an investigator needs. We could get a headband for one of the casters - never a bad investment, more spells, high DC's and whatnot.
We also have a heavy adamantine flail (which we should probably keep) and a +1 light crossbow. Does someone want the crossbow?
Oh! And I really need mwk thieves' tools (100 gp).
I'm proficient in crossbows so I might as well keep the magical one and sell my shortbow (worth 30 gp). I've also got 15 cold iron arrows that can be sold for 2 sp and 3 cp if my math is right.
Then I'll buy:
And if we've still got enough, I'd like to make my studded leather masterwork for 150 gp.
That should be it for now! I don't really know what to get an investigator either except nicer weapons and armor/AC boosters (my AC is pretty pitiful and I don't have many HP). Eventually a belt and headband would be nice but those can wait.

A magnifying glass, pipe, and hunting cap.....
Hrrrm. +2 pipe of inspired revelation; adds +2 to all inspiration rolls and all living creatures gain the scent ability versus user for 1 hour.
If Seherab is working towards a mithral shirt we could just buy that. No big thang...
Yeah, that would be nice too. Also, I haven't looked through the ACG items yet, I'm sure there are more investigator specific ones. Anything boosting skills would be welcome!
Hmmm, this is a houserule game.
Pfft, Seherab, we already bought you a set of masterwork tools. Are you laundering them on the side? :D
Heh, so apparently the designers are ahead of us:
PRICE 9,000 GP

AURA faint conjuration and divination
This long-stemmed, wooden pipe can burn any number of substances, but is primarily used for smoking tobacco. The pipe smoker can command a small, smoky servant to emerge from the pipe to do minor tasks. The servant can move or fetch small objects, and in general acts as an unseen servant, except that it is visible as a small, wispy cloud of gray smoke. Additionally, the servant is capable of clearing one 5-foot square of smoke or fog per round. The servant can be used for up to 1 hour per day; this time doesn’t need to be continuous, but must be used in 10-minute increments.
An investigator gains some additional benefits while smoking the pipe. He can use inspiration on Survival checks to track or Perception checks to notice fine details without spending a use of inspiration. Additionally, once per day he can attempt a Knowledge check as if he had the eidetic recollection investigator talent.
CONSTRUCTION REQUIREMENTS COST 4,500 GP Craft Wondrous Item, guidance, unseen servant
Anyways:
silver weapon blanch x2 (10 gp)
ghost salt (200 gp)
adamantine weapon blanch (100 gp)
mithral shirt (1100 gp)
Also, we have 5 extra cold iron bolts. You get those too (55 total)
OK, so I took the liberty of spending cash to build us a scroll library for "what if" situations:
Harkuf can Cast and should take these
scroll of feather step, 4
Ankhef can Cast and should take these
scroll of remove curse
scrolls of remove paralysis 2
scrolls of remove fear 2
scrolls of sanctify corpse, 2
scroll of remove blindness
Harkuf or Ankhef can cast
scrolls of lesser restoration, 2 (I think Ankhef should carry)
scrolls of remove sickness, 2 (I think Ankhef should carry)
scroll of daylight (I think Harkuf should carry)
This leaves us about 3576 in stuff for Ankhef, Harkuf and the snake!
I say we buy something nice for the snake...

I like the idea of getting those scrolls. What do you need me to cast masterwork transformation on?
-I'll spend 300 to cast it on my quarterstaff
And we can wait before getting anything nice for the snake, he's gonna grow next level.
Assuming the amount of loot we find increases, would a handy haversack be appropriate? Or should we wait for it.
I'll admit, I'm having a hard time thinking of stuff to get, I'm just not that creative a thinker.
The MW Xformation is on Seherab's sword.
Given the prevalence of traps, anything for perception or disabling is awesome.
Druids kind of end up being the "I spot the left handed kink in that guy's nose hair from 100 yards" anyways - why don't we grab you eyes of the eagle and you can be our duly appointed perception monkey.
I think that would probably conclude outfitting for now.

I hesitate to say it because I feel like I'm hogging all the loot this time around but Seherab now has Trap Spotter so eyes of the eagle would be nice for him. If we get some now Harkuf can keep them but next time around that would probably be a good investment for Seherab.
Ok, I'll add them to his stats later. It would make sense for you (and anybody else who wants) to get a pair later too. Nothing wrong with an all-around high Perception party just in case I miss something!
