GM Kamro's Curse of the Crimson Throne

Game Master overlord_laharl

Still in book 1. Should finish shortly after you hit level 4.

Woot! I will try and get a post up later tonight since I am up way to early and my eyes will not focus on the text wall of plot! I should have Emma leveled later tonight as well. No promise on a feat though.

GM: query: do you think that a Vigilante character would work ok in this campaign, or would it suck?

Appraise / Spellcraft checks

garnet amulet appraise: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19

2-pound gold ingot appraise: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13
gold crown appraise: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18
scrimshaw carving appraise: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

Weird key dagger appraise: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18

Woot that might help!

A vigilante would work fine in this setting. There's actually a fairly important one as an NPC in Korvosa.

I've updated the loot sheet with values for all the items Emma and Makall just appraised.

That’s interesting. I wonder how they statted him/her, since the Vigilante is a pretty new Class.

character updated
spells known: magic missile, bless (bloodline)
resist acid/cold 5 (bloodline)
5 HP (4 base + 1 favoured class)
+1 SP to appraise, know (arcana), spellcraft, heal
Superior Summoning

Question is it possible to purchase a wand? Was thinking a wand of grease or befuddle

Invulnerable Rager 3

BAB +1
Ref:+1
Will +1

Intimidate +1
Knowledge (Local) +1
Perception +1
Survival +1

CMB +1
CMD +1

Extreme Endurance (Ex): At 3rd level, the invulnerable rager is inured to either hot or cold climate effects (choose one) as if using endure elements. In addition, the barbarian gains 1 point of fire or cold resistance for every three levels beyond 3rd. This ability replaces trap sense.

Korvosa is a big city, so even in its current state a low level wand like Grease of Befuddle would be available.

We have an opening for a martial character in our Rise of the Runelords if anyone is interested.

I could put some brute together if desired.

Have the GM drop me a note, or let me know to post into the Discussion if you want me.

I won't be offended if you pick someone else.

Shaeda is levelled up. Got some hit points, saves, nothing amazing, except...

2 Feats:

Combat Reflexes
Bodyguard

Henceforth, when my adjacent allies get attacked, I shall use an AOO to attempt to "aid another" on their AC. The GM is welcome to roll these on the fly, to keep the game moving. I'm +6 to hit, and I need to hit AC 10. If I succeed, I give my ally a +4 to their AC!

So stay close and cuddle boys!

Cool, I'll make a note of that for next combat.

I am all leveled up but I forgot to mark it in the discussion. I can appear really meek and get sanctuary on myself. Cause I am weak and squishy.

I’m making every effort to make us all less squishy!

Of course, we also need damage output to drop the bad guys.

Thats what dwarf is for I thought?!

Searok sulks in a corner! :)

It wasn't meant as a rebuke! Go kill stuff!

We're heading into a den of vice with shady characters? Shouldn't be too hard NOT to kill stuff! ;)

As a warpriestess of the goddess of one of those vices, and a shady character, I endorse this message.

lol

Hehe. Curse me for making Emma a responsible person. If I had gone reckless things could have in bloody. But I the player encourage violence.

Oh! I forgot my feat. I'm going with

Extra Rage
You can use your rage ability more than normal.
Prerequisite: Rage class feature.
Benefit: You can rage for 6 additional rounds per day.
Special: You can gain Extra Rage multiple times. Its effects stack.

Oh snap! I need a feat. Hmmm. I will try to figure one out tomorrow.

Hey Emma, if that Throne of Night game you’re in needs another player at some point...

Just an FYI...

This Wednesday, 12/13, I will be going out of town to visit family with almost no access to the internet until the end of the year. Please bot me as necessary.

No prob, expecting a lot of that as the holidays draw near.

The dwarves? I could ask.

I love me some Dwarves!

I might have noticed ;)
I can let them know but no promises

No problem at all.

Ok, and with that last email having been sent, my Christmas/New Year Holiday begins!

There will be family, and friends, and out of state travel, so I will do my best to post, but at least during the Monday-Friday of next week, it might get a bit tough.

GM, feel free to bot me as necessary.

Happy Christmas to all!

Yeah, I figured at least a few people would have trouble posting for the next few days. No worries, enjoy the holiday.

I myself finally finished a work project that was eating up far too many of my nights and weekends, and passed a certification exam that's been hanging over my head for months. Looking forward to some well-deserved merriment. :)

At all the semi-nudity, Searok blushes even more. Well, Shaeda this is yer area what do we do? The Dwarf asks making it clear he does not want to be left alone in this den of lust. He scowls as attractive females smile and wink at him.

In Shaeda’s defense, Searok DID defer to her expertise at handling this encounter.

My computer is down for a while and my phone sucks to post from sucks. I will try but bot me if need be

Anyone want to bot Emma, since Shaeda and Searok's scene is over for the time being?

I'd end up getting Emma laid too, and that doesn't seem right for her persona, so "not it!"

My luck, I'd have Emma play Knivesies and she'd end up losing a hand!

Makall what do you think you would make happen to me.

Also My computer is back now and I am trying to play catch up.

Other gambling games I know of.

Makall what do you think you would make happen to me.

You shopping around to see what sins are most attractive before you choose?

I think I wanna try chatting with the people betting. But I am sick so my brain is a little fuzzy. Feel free to suggest a conversation starter.

And that question was cause you thought you would get me laid and Searok would damage me. I was curious what Makall thought he would do.

I think you should participate :) I can cast mage armour on you hehe :)

I'm totally gonna die! What rolls do you need from me for this game? Also not sure if this will be helping in the quest but it should be entertaining!

Can I use

You can use it if you want. I'm sure the bouncers keep an eye out for magic use in the games, but this would not be a very common or easily recognized ability, and Spellcraft wouldn't help them spot it as it is not technically a spell.

And I suppose we would treat it as a combat, even though there are other goals. Roll for initiative, CMB if you want to try to shove them off the table, etc.

So CMB to shove off the table. What check is it to grab the dagger or to grab coin?

As I understand it the goal is to knock them off the table, knock them out, or collect more money. Right?

Grabbing coins doesn't require a check, but the amount you get is determined by rolling 1d10. If one of you goes for coins, and the other threatens (neither of you has improved unarmed strike, so that would require the dagger), it provokes an AOO.

Assuming you both go for the knife in round 1, whoever wins initiative can sort of decide what happens. Normally one of you grabbing the knife would provoke, but again, you technically don't threaten if you don't already have it. If the winner of initiative grabs the knife, the loser could either A) grab coins B) try to disarm (hard when you are unarmed) or c) CMB to shove the opponent, provoking an AOO from the now armed opponent, but hopefully winning the game.

On the other hand, there's actually a case to be made for the winner NOT grabbing the dagger right off. They could instead ready an action that triggers when the loser goes for the dagger. Since that would interrupt the loser's lunge for the dagger ("the action occurs just before the action that triggers it"), they'd still be technically unarmed, so you could make your CMB without provoking.

I was thinking of doing the delayed action while I was at work but then I checked and remembered that strength was Emma's dump stat.

Was she able to get the Harmless Performer off before the the game started since there was a chance? If not I will be foregoing it and hope I don't die :)

I'll say yes she was able to do it.

I all feel like I am monopolizing the show
