The Story so Far
SEASON 5:
YEAR OF THE DEMON
The Pathfinder Society discovered the location of Jormurdun, a dwarven sky citadel whose very existence had been lost to history. Following the monumental discovery that Jormurdun was in the Worldwound, Pathfinder agents flocked to neighboring Mendev to prepare for an expedition. However, an invasion of demons interrupted the announcement of their grand foray into the abyssal wasteland.
With the Fifth Mendevian Crusade underway, the Pathfinder Society knew they could not reach Jormurdun without assistance. To gain support, the Society sent diplomatic envoys to recruit influential luminaries in Absalom, the Eagle Knights of Andoran, the elves of Kyonin, and the Riftwardens. At the same time, Pathfinder agents gathered histories of Taldan victories against evil forces, gained control of powerful Jistkan artifacts, and acquired a powerful relic to rally behind.

This info is for Doctor Drokk, at level 9. If the group prefers to go low tier, I should have a level 5 option. (Both subject to surviving a few face to face tables at upcoming cons before Gameday).

Character name: Doctor Drokk

Faction: Dark Archive
Day Job Roll, if any:
____
1) What special rules, boons, or corner cases should I know about regarding your character?
Drokk uses a protector tumour familiar. He has a bunch of chronicle sheet boons, but nothing I'd say was likely to throw a serious curve ball.
2) Why is your character in the Pathfinder society? A few sentences about your character and his or her previous adventures, either in or out of character.
"I originally joined up as a sell-sword. I needed money to rebuild my laboratory. My idiot parents blew it up and killed themselves, incompetent fools! It turns out that the Society is a good place to gain knowledge though, as well as funds for further experimentation. Why, I have collaborated with some of the finest Alchemists in all Golarion! My name will be recorded as a contributor to a new elixir of immortality. And recently, I have joined the Hellknights. Chaos must be forced back! Science shall prevail!"
3) What are your strengths, interests, or skillsets outside of combat?
Drokk is a scientist, an alchemical engineer. He has a few knowledges, as well as maxed spellcraft. He can intimidate reasonably well, especially with Gravelly Tonic.
4) What are your go-to combat tactics?
(Please also include this on your character sheet as a Bot Me! spoiler.)
I still need to make Drokk's pbp character sheet, I've only used him face to face so far.
Combat tactics: Drokk uses alchemical extracts and feral mutagen to buff, then enters melee. He is armed with a magic No-dachi (+1) but is most effective when using natural attacks from his mutagen. He has a vicious amulet of mighty fists, but can split damage with his familiar and has feats and discoveries to enable him to take a lot of hp damage and stay in the fight.
5) What deity does your character worship? Do they carry religious texts, holy symbols, or other symbols of their faith?
Drokk is a man of science rather than faith, but he is proud to have been asked to join the Hellknights and is a member of the Order of the Gate. (Not a member of the prestige class, but has the Hellknight vanity and completed the Order of the Gate scenario siding with the Hellknights). He wears the symbol of the Order prominently on his spiked fullplate armour. Drokk believes in order.
6) What time(s) of day are you usually online to post?
I'm on GMT+1 (British Summer Time). I usually check my campaigns morning and evening, so I can generally post twice a day.

Character name: Hakaam Al-Ajam
PFS#: 43451-6
Race/Class(es)/Level(s): Tiefling (Daemon-Spawn) Barbarian (Urban Barbarian) 1 / Investigator (Empyricist) 8
Faction: The Exchange
Day Job Roll, if any:
____
1) What special rules, boons, or corner cases should I know about regarding your character?
Hakaam is a Zjarran Entrepreneur, gaining a +2 on his diplomacy or bluff checks against creatures that speak Kelish or Ignan.
Hakaam also gets a +4 on diplomacy or intimidate checks against pathfinders his level or lower from his Unexpected Discovery
Hakaam further gets a +2 on his diplomacy checks against people who are friendly towards the Society, and a -2 against those who hate it, courtesy of his diamond-inlaid wayfinder.
There are more, but I'm not sure that they are any more relevant than these.
2) Why is your character in the Pathfinder society? A few sentences about your character and his or her previous adventures, either in or out of character.
Hakaam is a member of the Society because it is a great way to travel, meet new people and discover new markets. And even more importantly, to make money. There is a considerable amount of money to be made, and he will need a considerable amount of money indeed if he wishes to foil the cult that spawned him, deep in the deserts of Rahadoum.
3) What are your strengths, interests, or skillsets outside of combat?
Hakaam is interested in exploring psycho-active substances, brews that will alter his mind and through it, his body. The magic of the gods, while beneficial, is a troubling gift, and he need not look further than Aroden's disappearance to see how relying on such gifts could be devastating.
Hakaam has also developed a interest in breaking into places he isn't supposed to be in, a penchant for palming away what he believes would be necessary, an affinity for staying hidden, a knack for using wands and scrolls, an eye for body language and a silvered tongue.
4) What are your go-to combat tactics?
Consume an extract (the nature of which is dependent on the combat, but barring anything else, shield), Rage to Dex, and go on ahead!
If the fight is a serious one, use the Mutagen instead.
5) What deity does your character worship? Do they carry religious texts, holy symbols, or other symbols of their faith?
None. Worshipping is a weird subject for Hakaam, whose family is either composed of mortals wishing and praying to bring about the end of the world and "hedonistic" Daemons who want the world to suffer endlessly before destroying it and then each other in a senseless orgy of destruction. His entire upbringing has made Hakaam a rather... pragmatic man.
6) What time(s) of day are you usually online to post?
After 5:00 PM Monday, Tuesday and Friday, after 10:30 PM Wednesday and Thursday, and most of the day Saturday and Sunday. (Eastern Time)

Plays SLOW
____
1) What special rules, boons, or corner cases should I know about regarding your character? Iso is a pretty run of the mill barbarian. DR doubled vs non lethal.
2) Why is your character in the Pathfinder society? A few sentences about your character and his or her previous adventures, either in or out of character.
Iso was a bit of a pirate in his youth. He joined the Scazni faction, and has transitioned over to the exchange.
3) What are your strengths, interests, or skillsets outside of combat?
On a technical level, Iso is a competent, but not exceptional tracker. That said, he loves social interaction. He is absolutely awful at it, but has no real self awareness of that inability. Rest assured that while mechanically he is built for fighting, RP wise he is a load of fun in social situations.
4) What are your go-to combat tactics?
(Please also include this on your character sheet as a Bot Me! spoiler.)
Iso typically hits things with his axe. If he hits them easily, he power attacks. If he or one of this companions (and Friends in particular) are hurt he will rage.
5) What deity does your character worship? Do they carry religious texts, holy symbols, or other symbols of their faith?
Such a lovely man obviously worships Desna. He has no overt signs of his faith, although there are small silver bells woven into his beard that someone might take as a sign of faith to some god.
6) What time(s) of day are you usually online to post?
I'm in New Zealand, but generally post during the day.

Bones jointed the Pathfinders as a way to repay a group of Osirion pathfinders whom helped him defeat an undead creature which killed his beloved.
3) What are your strengths, interests, or skill sets outside of combat?
Bones is good in Perception, Sense Motive, all Knowledge skills, and all Professions. With the Memory Recall ability he can usually make knowledge checks that are not time critical.
4) What are your go-to combat tactics? (Please also include this on your character sheet as a Bot Me! spoiler.)
Bones cast his false-life spell on himself, if he expects possible combat in the next few hours. Also, he can cast shield another on an ally if they need are likely to need extra protection during the mission.
During combat: Bones usually attempts a knowledge check to identify a creature's weakness and strengths, before casting a bless or prayer. He may cast a spiritual weapon if it appears to be an extended fight. Otherwise he will engage in melee with his war-hammer or at range using his Icicle domain power.
For emergency, Bones has scroll of Breath of life in a spring loaded wrist sheath, if he can get to the fallen ally.
5) What deity does your character worship? Do they carry religious texts, holy symbols, or other symbols of their faith?
Bones is a true neutral cleric of Pharasma, he has a holy symbol about his neck and a Reliquary holy symbol on his shield that can be used as a holy symbol.
6) What time(s) of day are you usually online to post?
Weekday usually check in the morning (8am CST ~1400 GMT) and again in the evening (6pm CST ~2400 GMT) when I normally will post. Weekends vary, but usually will check and post in the morning.

Hakime - level 6 (paladin/monk)
Doctor Drokk - level 9 (alchemist)
Hakaam Al-Ajam - level 9 (investigator)
Iso - level 5 (Barbarian )
Bones - level 6 (Cleric)
Uktar. TBD
That is an average of 6.7 - goes to 7. It looks like it doesn't matter what level Uktar brings in, we will end up between 6.5 (rounds to 7) and 7.2 (rounds to 7). That is high tier with 4 character adjustment. Slightly less worrying for a front liner sitting at the bottom of the level range, but only slightly.
You'll need to play smarter, not harder, but I think you'll be able to manage.
You all will be going to Rahadoum. I'd like to know how Bones and Hakime plan to behave in The Kingdom of Man.
|
|
Hakime will respect the laws of Rahadoum and keep her faith pretty much to herself, avoiding obvious public displays of any kind of faith-based magic as much as possible. Might loh if a life depends on it, but isn't going to loudly proclaim Erastil's name in doing so. She'll say her morning prayers in private and in her mind, not aloud.
|
|
Assuming we knew where we where going, Bones would buy a Pathfinder pouch {link} to place all his scrolls, wands, potions, holy symbol into. Also he would buy a normal large shield to use in place of his holy symbol shield.
As for the laws of Rahadourn, Bones will also say morning prayers in private and try to avoid public displays of faith

Character name: Turathal Amonra
PFS#: 100685-10
Race/Class(es)/Level(s): Aasimar, Sorcerer 4/Cleric 2
Faction: Dark Archive
Day Job Roll, if any: Diplomacy (Caravan Vanity):
____
1) What special rules, boons, or corner cases should I know about regarding your character? Toppling Magic Missiles, Variant Negative Channel-Rulership Portfolio (character profile has full description, but basically does 1d3 neg energy damage, and must make DC 17 Will save or be dazed for 1 round)
2) Why is your character in the Pathfinder society? A few sentences about your character and his or her previous adventures, either in or out of character. Turathal was a natural recruit for the Dark Archive, with his interest in both the arcane and the ancient ways. While part of him wouldn't mind spending more time in dusty libraries, he does enjoy field work a lot more, and he has a natural wanderlust.
3) What are your strengths, interests, or skillsets outside of combat? Turathal has always tried to use diplomacy first. He does love to spread the word of Ra, trying to bring back to prominence a faith that has waned for a loong time. Occasionally that leads to channeling the negative energy of Ra to daze the unruly and uncivilized. Oh, and part of the reason he is so in awe of Ra is that he is literally dazzled by his god's presence (i.e. has Light Sensitivity, so when the Sun's out, he's dazzled.)
4) What are your go-to combat tactics?
Wand of Bless, Toppling MM, Variant Negative Channel, Glitterdust
5) What deity does your character worship? Do they carry religious texts, holy symbols, or other symbols of their faith? Ra, has golden holy symbol and holy symbol tattoo on palm of his left hand
6) What time(s) of day are you usually online to post? online much of the day from 10a-10p Eastern US

Oh yes. Special things. When Iso rages... he is superstitious, so he has to save against all spells. That includes buffs and healing. So please, if there are buffs to go out, put them up early!
Amusing scene from the previous scenario was a battered Iso on (I think) single digit hp, making his save against a cure serious wounds.
We aren't actually starting until a little after Gameday begins. The Gameplay thread is open mostly for dotting, but back and forth roleplay is just fine. Just don't expect much from NPCs until August. Enjoy the refreshments!
I prefer separate initiatives for combat-active companions, but with block initiative it might not matter beyond the first round.

I prefer separate initiatives for combat-active companions, but with block initiative it might not matter beyond the first round.
Ok, makes sense to me.
Nigel has Combat Reflexes and Bodyguard (Protector archetype variant), so whenever combat breaks out he is able to use up to 3 attacks of opportunity per round to boost Doctor Drokk's AC by 2 against a melee attack. Nigel only fails to make the AC10 attack roll on a 1. I can pre-roll these AoO's round by round, or you could make the roll whenever Drokk is attacked in round 1 or a surprise round, as you prefer.
I'll roll if you haven't, but it's helpful if you roll for Bodyguard and prioritize which enemy attacks Nigel defends against.
For instance, if the enemy combatants are three guards and a champion, will he hold his AoOs to (maybe) defend against the stronger threat?
|
|
Typically Nigel will use his AoOs against the first three melee attacks against Drokk per round, but this will vary depending on circumstances. If Drokk is toe to toe with a Marilith and three dretches, Nigel will be ignoring the dretches! Let's assume the first three attacks until I post different tactics - which will depend on what the enemies are doing, and how many buffs Doctor Drokk has up.
Yay! I love watching these. Carry on! :D
|
|
Drokk is now levelled up after adventures far and wide.
I didn't take Absorbing Touch yet. Doesn't look like we're in great need of it, but I am happy to grab it before we start if the party wants.
@Hakaam, shall we compare Formula Books? Mine is all in my character profile, feel free to examine it.
@GM, Drokk's level increase results in his Day Job result being 35 now.

Turathal's Tattoo familiar is strictly noncombatant, but she does use move action to pop up, make an ID check on foes, and share info from any successful knowledge check, then uses standard to meld back into tattoo form. Have never used her as a scout yet, and probably never will--much too attached to his little precious, even if she is a little know-it-all. (Soon she'll be smarter than Turathal!)
Since mechanically I only use her for knowledge checks and the occasional flavor, I'm assuming you don't want me to worry about separate init.
I imagine the investigator and alchemist will smoke her on the knowledges front, but it never hurts to have backup.

Well, while I would be eager to do so, I think you are about to get a taste of disappointment.
Level One
Ant Haul
Cure Light Wounds
Enlarge Person
Reduce Person
Long Arm
Monkey Fish
Shield
Level Two
Alchemical Alocation
Barkskin
Invisibility
Spider Climb
Focused Scrutiny
Level Three

Heroism
But thank you for allowing me to look over my character sheet and realize that for the past nine levels, I have not bothered with a damn FORMULA BOOK. I took the liberty of correcting that, and going through my spells to add them to the formula book.
Anyway, if you don't mind terribly, could I scribe
|
|
Be my guest Hakaam :)
That'll cost you a good bit of gp in scribing costs I think. You're familiar with the costs? (In case not, it's 10gp x (spell level squared) per spell/extract you add to your book. If you want to obtain spells/extracts from NPCs it's half as much again).
Looks like the only ones I don't have are heroism and focused scrutiny. I might take focused scrutiny, looks like I could pile on the intimidate bonuses there. I use potion + alchemical allocation + enhance potion for heroism.
I like to collect extracts. Alchemists being able to fill an empty slot in just one minute makes them so flexible. There just aren't enough slots. I shall have to get more boro beads and preserving flasks, especially for level 2 extracts.
I really like the look of those lenses of situational sight. Never saw those before. I don't have the book they appear in.

Did I mention he's spent a ton on his formula book? You're losing formatting on this, and many descriptions are specific to his character stats, etc. If you want to PM me with email address, I could send it as a Word doc, with formatting, including highlighting of the best ones (for him, as a bomb-focused grenadier)
Impressive formula list there.
Your characters have plenty of time to scribe formulae. Just post any necessary skill checks (or your take 10 total), your list of scribed spells, and the gold total for me to note on your chronicle.
I'm off to GenCon this weekend, eclipse viewing on Monday, and organizing a LAN event next Friday, so I might not get us moving right away. Thanks for your patience, I look forward to gaming with you all.

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.

Hakime will wince as she reluctantly lets Iso hug her briefly, then sidles over to Turathal.. and with a sigh asks him softly... "Iso seems to have a bit of company and some of it is now on me... LIVE company if you catch my drift... before they start biting... have you a prestidigitation spell you can use to clean me up again and rid me of said visitors?"
I added up +18 for your Diplomacy bonus, Turathal. Am I missing a +2 somewhere? ( 6 ranks, 6 Cha, 3 class, 3 familiar)
I would move us forward more, but work has been very busy this week. Besides, I enjoy it when you interact with my NPCs. Enjoy some extra roleplaying!

It looks like I mistakenly added the Aasimar Racial Skilled bonus (I have several Aasimar characters, and Turathal is the only one who took Crusading Magic). I've now removed it (oddly enough, I hadn't added the Skilled bonus to Perception, so that +14 is correct) Thanks for catching that. If you spot anything else, let me know (I do all my characters manually, so extra eyes are a very good thing.)
/me looks from Drokk, to Hakaam, to Iso.
Yeaaaaah, he'll never figure out that you three are part of the same group. You totally blend. ;)
But it'll be fun to watch. :D
There is a lot of talking in the first part of this scenario. I'm sorry if it seems like it is dragging a bit. I do like when you all give idle thoughts or reactions to the scene, even if Turathal is doing most of the talking right now. Keep it up!
Between Bones and Hakaam, you know all you need to about the compound. Now to plan your assault!
Now you all need to decide on a course of action for getting into the compound, rescuing the captives, and getting out before you are rounded up by the Pure Legion.
The four suggested methods of entry are:
Posing as Food Delivery
Posing as parties interested in purchasing slaves
Through the Sewers; or
Direct Assault
