Updated,

If Jarreck fronts the 150gp for a Darkvision scroll and 40 gp for the ink to copy would Omo or Seven be opposed to learning the spell. Thought is not an everyday thing but when scouting caverns and such, it would allow Jarreck the chance to range farther ahead using the darkness and negate the "silly" 50% miss chance when attacking in the darkness, at least until Niles drops Dark slayer back in :-)

Or better yet copy it from Alotuna's spell book, believe Niles has to roll for that though. Niles?

Secondary question.... Niles would the light created from cyberart , basically candlelight in 5' radius, be considered a magical light to overcome the slayers magical darkness??

Seventeen will be happy to learn dark vision, if its available.

It isn't magical light its technological light. However, I'd rule that certain sources of tech light might cancel darkness spells.

However in that case, no the cyberart would not.

Niles was the darkvision available as a spell from Altouna for Seven to copy or would Jarreck have had to find a copy in town for her to copy.

Darkvision to Copy: 1d100 ⇒ 99 Not there sorry.
Darkvision Scroll: 1d100 ⇒ 91 Wow, nope sorry.

Well there's alway the next town...

Guaire cannot speak his own native tongue? No respect for one's heritage. :-p

Meh, I thought if you were a certain racial heritage you got that language for free. Guaire can speak Hallit because it wouldn't make much sense if he couldn't.

Oh, you definitely can. All people of a certain ethnicity get their language for free. What always bothers me is that most everybody can speak Taldane (Common). It seems rather odd to me.

I feel the same way, but Pathfinder is based on the idea that everyone can communicate pretty easily with everyone else. I've seen other campaign settings where Languages are treated much differently.

Ok, then i do speak it...thankfully.

Niles would it be possible for Jarreck to have found a trader to trade his adamantine longsword to for a adamantine dagger during his rounds selling items. If possible will you ok the retcon?

1d100 ⇒ 57 Yes and sure.

Probably going to break out the aqueous orb next round. Should be fun.

Re doing things differently, I don't want to slow the action down but perhaps Niles shouldn't post 'good guys are up' (which I take to mean its the start of a new round) if he's waiting on an action from the current round.

Also we the players should try to keep up.

But, the good guys are up. If you look at the initiative order its

Jarreck <---good guy
Omo <---good guy
Hellion <---good guy, well kinda

Round 7
Guaire <---good guy
Seven <---good guy
Mort <---good guy
Raiders <---bad guys
Jarreck
Omo
Hellion

Would you rather I said

"Jarreck Omo and Hellion are up", and then once they post say "Guaire Seven and Mort are up"? That honestly seems like it might slow things down a bunch.

Wow...Niles your rolls are hot.
I mean...30 raiders?

Might it not be wise to escape here, guys?
It's not that Guaire's chicken, but the odds are bad, and he's died shortly before.

Seven's and Mort's chances are best to come out alive.

Ok, just FYI this encounter was pretty random. I rolled for a random encounter and got one, then rolled in the appropriate chart and got
Kellid Tribe...so this being Blood Gar territory I made it a full war party. I honestly didn't think you would stand and fight these guys...

Neither did i......but Hellion needed a field test, it seems. :)

Jarreck <---good guy
Omo <---good guy
Hellion <---good guy, well kinda

Round 7
Guaire <---good guy
Seven <---good guy
Mort <---good guy
Raiders <---bad guys
Jarreck
Omo
Hellion

I agree it's not worth waiting after hellion's turn, but perhaps it's worth waiting before posting the raider's actions? Reason being it's the 'natural break', stuff that happens on their turn (e.g. movement) tends to change what we'd do in response.

I do wait after their turns. You guys all post your turns and then I post a recap of them along with the bad guys turn, and then I say GG UP. So basically initative is

You Guys Go
They Go
You Guys Go
They Go

Where the rounds fall doesn't really matter... I have a feeling people aren't really reading the thread all that well when they post their actions.

Would you guys rather I resolve actions in post order rather than using initiative in these situations?

I may have screwed everybody up a bit but it was inadvertant. I posted Jarreck's first round action before the Raiders went so Niles wouldnt have to wait on me to get out of work. I knew where I was in the lineup was just trying not to hold the rest of you up.

I wouldn't say that Jarreck. Rather I didn't expect the fight to happen or snowball quite so much.

Happy belated Thanksgiving all. I'm in the mountains chasing deer will post as Internet availability allows.

I might be unavailable during this weekend, bot me if I'm holding things up.

Hey guys, I'm taking my family on a mini vacation tomorrow through Sunday evening. My ability to post will be limited.

I have my second interview tomorrow. Wish me luck. Also, I won't be able to post until the evening at the earliest. I wanted to give you guys the heads up, since I was a bad guy and didn't do it last time.

Good luck with the interview tomorrow.

The forcefield seems like a cool item, we should use this one ;) Who wants it?

I'd say either you or Jarreck since you have the least hp Seven and Jarreck is our frontliner.

The Pilo might also be an interesting and hilarious idea ^^ though perhaps a bit of a waste of using such an item

I say Jarreck.

Merry Christmas all and wishes for an enjoyable holiday weekend to you and yours

Are we all back? Would be good to get going again. Think right now we're waiting for some kind of water breath spell.

Back

Back, busy days after Christmas.

Happy 2016 to all!

Please be aware that tomorrow and Wednesday I'm in trainings all day for work and so my ability to post during my normal times will be severely degraded. I should still manage a post from home but not much during the day.

Omo contacted me and let me know he had a stomach virus and a hospital stay which is why he has been absent. He will be rejoining us shortly.

Hate you're sick Omo, hope you are on the mend now....

Thanks! It's gone from the unable to keep anything down to tired all the time and dehydrated. So progress!

I'm taking my wife on a brief birthday holiday. I'm expecting internet but its possible my posting will be slow till Monday.

Minor Items +1 leather armor, +1 shock warhammer, headband of vast intelligence +2, potion of undetectable alignment, robe of useful items, scroll of enlarge person, scroll of obscuring mist, scroll of remove curse, wand of detect thoughts (50 charges);

Omo do you want to buy this? I think the party will benefit more if you have it (and more bombs) than if seventeen has it. I can lend you 3000gp so you can afford it.

I do want it. I wasn't going to ask, but I appreciate and accept the offer.

Ok, then after you finish at the Lumberyard you guys can go buy the headband.

Seventeen, do you want the potion of fox's cunning I made back in the day?

Is Wayfinder an IOS app?

Might be useful if we need Seventeen to land a spell on something.

No, its an Android only app but the creator took it off the Play Store for some reason. The guy that wrote it is on these forums, his handle is D-Kal.

D-Kal?

I've followed one of his campaigns, but he suddenly abandoned it.

Niles,

My mind's occupied by facing unemployment, imminent in two weeks.
Sorry for this hampering my attention in my post.
