Glad to hear that @Rafael. It has been a pleasure playing with you so far!

So far I feel like my "experiment" has been a success, even though it has increased the complexity of GMing several-fold. I am having fun with it...really helping to "tell the story", I think.

No, back to the game!


Male Human (Minnesotan) GM 5 Gallows of Madness |Midnight Marauder

FYI - when I get home tonight after bowling, I am going to fast-track the discussion with the prisoners... Kali and Rafael are welcome to ask more questions, but I think that their quick investigation questions are probably pretty obvious -- just to keep things moving.

Hope that's ok

By all means! Let's keep the story moving forward!

I am leaving for Las Vegas tomorrow and have three days of trade show. After that, it is off to Disney World with my family. Not sure how reliable my posting will be for that time. If you want, I can send an overview with my actions.


Male Human (Minnesotan) GM 5 Gallows of Madness |Midnight Marauder

@Kali, it would be great if you could do that. You could post it here, in the game play, or just send me an email. Any would work.


Male Human (Minnesotan) GM 5 Gallows of Madness |Midnight Marauder

Sorry, got distracted and didn't get back to the game as fast as I would have liked... three locations are updated, waiting to see what you all do.


Male Human (Minnesotan) GM 5 Gallows of Madness |Midnight Marauder

I believe everyone has completed what they were expecting to do in the afternoon, and are heading back to the inn? I'll move forward on this assumption, but will give you all a little time before that to wrap up anything I have missed.

Rafael + Ehr'lynd, are you planning on breaking in during the day?

Depends on Ehr'lynd's position on it, we'll likely end up chatting with the others about the idea first.

As this is our first instance of combat, do you want me to make rolls in my post or just describe my badass fistacuffs?


Male Human (Minnesotan) GM 5 Gallows of Madness |Midnight Marauder

Rolls in the posts are fine for combats, if'n you are planning on fighting.


Male Human (Minnesotan) GM 5 Gallows of Madness |Midnight Marauder

@Rafael - you are in combat, which has a tactical map (slide number 5). Please move yourself (remembering that acrobatics takes double movement). Also, I will need to see your acrobatics roll.... then, the other combatants can react.

We are in combat, so we need to act in turns, etc... you have not made it to the inn yet.

Thank you.

After the completely broken Occult Adventures BS

What do you mean broken? It is no different than shocking grasp. At least you get a saving throw for half damage, unlike shocking grasp.

Just because there is a super cheap ioun stone that allows me to cast Divination spells one level higher is, well, unfortunate but by no means game breaking. The spell still has a maximum damage dice pool (5d6 for Mind Thrust 1).


Male Human (Minnesotan) GM 5 Gallows of Madness |Midnight Marauder

You are trying to argue it isn't OP?

And comparing to Shocking Grasp honestly isn't a good comparison, since it is pretty broken when in the hands of a magus.

But, will saves are typically weaker, on most classes. Just saying, my opinion is that rather OP.

and you got lucky.

And the stone wasn't created with divination attacks in mind.

Really, Mind Thrust should be enchantment.

Scarab Sages

Female samsaran AC: 16 (16 Tch, 14 Fl) | Speed 30ft | Active conditions: caster level +1 for Divination spells

Oh c'mon.

I'm not a magus. I gues I could have ended the combat right there if I were a witch and used the slumber hex.

With the ioun stone at third level I am doing the same damage as scorching ray and the victim gets a save attempt rather than a touch attack, and some how this is OP.


Male Human (Minnesotan) GM 5 Gallows of Madness |Midnight Marauder

Scorching ray is a 2nd level spell... but now we're all just getting argumentative.

Man... some people cannot be teased :P

I am traveling this weekend, so I will try and check in as often as possible. If you want, I can send a couple options for actions to you via PM so I don't have to hold up the group or weigh them down by just "delaying".

-T


Male Human (Minnesotan) GM 5 Gallows of Madness |Midnight Marauder

That would be helpful, @Kali.

Thank you.

As an FYI - I am typically far more lenient on response time over the weekends, especially when I am not as responsive on weekends in PbP :D

@Rafael
you would need to have Profession: Sailor to make day job.

Or, more generally, a craft, profession, or perform skill, or a vanity that opens up other skills for day jobs.

Looking at your character sheet, you do not have one.

I didn't actually start with this much gold, I forgot the PDF of my character wasn't the one I played with.

So change this to 596 gold.

I would suggest going back and reviewing the investigation posts... a lot of time (in real life) has passed, and memories might be a little fuzzy. I know they would be for me!

That's why I did the hopefully gentle nudge of Rafael, there. You did know that he got the note from Ekira.

Also, not-so-subtle hint. Ekira is not on trial you and Dalton Krunne are.

Yeah, Rafael is a bit short sighted and stubborn with his grudges.

Question - are you sure that the effect is panicked and not frightened? I know of few low-tier baddies (if any) that are capable of immediately triggering the panicked condition.

Frightened would mean we can stand our ground (at a -2 penalty) if we can't take any other actions to flee (in which case, would the crowd count)?

Frightened would also mean we don't drop our weapons (which is of course, important).


Male Human (Minnesotan) GM 5 Gallows of Madness |Midnight Marauder

If you look at the conditions, I said "FRIGHTENED" :P

frightened wrote:
Frightened: A frightened creature flees from the source of its fear as best it can. If unable to flee, it may fight. A frightened creature takes a –2 penalty on all attack rolls, saving throws, skill checks, and ability checks. A frightened creature can use special abilities, including spells, to flee; indeed, the creature must use such means if they are the only way to escape.

The crowd does not block you running, it just counts as 4 squares of movement.

I only have reporting information for two players... please post this ASAP as we are about to finish!
