So I guess hiring someone to appraise the work actually wouldn't be very expensive -- we'll call it 25 gp (which is probably actually way more than it should be, but is just pocket change at this level).

She tells you the telescope, astrolabe, sextant, star charts, and other astrophysical instruments, are worth 7,000 gp as a set.

Her eyes grow wide as she looks over the stone, which she eventually tells you is a meteorite -- with 15,000 gp worth of adamantine!

The shawl appears to be a nereid's shawl, which could be used to force the fey's compliance.

Sorry, keep trying to get to loot sheet and trying to get disbursements. Today is busy, but still have dreams of getting it done with the new potential sales above.

Grunt, Hektir comes out of his room with his face sotted with ink. In his hands is a piece of paper with an obscene amount of calculations upon it...with resultant crossouts, errors, and 'new math'.

"I've done it. We each get about 29560 gp each. There you go."

Hek drinks a toast to himself at completing his difficult assignment only a week late.

Hek's Crafting:

2000 gp Headband of Wisdom +2
4000 gp Upgrade Cloak of Resistance +3
8000 gp Upgrade Amulet of Mighty Fists to +2

15560 gp to spend.

Thanks for lootz tally, it is much appreciated. Quinn will get a cloak +4, tree token, and winged boots with his lootz and left over coins

not so fast, Quinn - don't forget the crafting cost for your crossbow! 9,000 gp

same for Tsin - though her's came in at 5,000 gp

Lightning Fast Quinn has been holding that dough for a little over a year now and he just needs a +2 enhancement to the existing +1 crossbow, so it should only be 8,000 gp and Mal has an extra day to rest

Kudos to the bean counters! Doing the jobs the rest of us aren't willing to take...

Likely will invest heavily in armoring up...

So, my schedule's pretty slammed through the weekend, I think, before checking out the Caribbean ladyfolks and dragging one back home April 21-28 (and don't anticipate posting at all during that time).

If you guys seem to be ready, I'll start us up again Monday and we can play for a few days before I depart, but if not, we'll get going again when I return. (I may also find my schedule a bit packed during that week as I get ready for my trip, but we'll play it by ear.)

I'd like to spend the following:

12,000 gp to upgrade my Headband of Intelligence +2 to +4

The rest I'll offer to anyone who needs it. I don't really have anything I'd like to purchase!

RPG Superstar 2014 Top 16, RPG Superstar 2012 Top 16

OK, I think you guys are close enough (and I've got a little time) that we might as well start again even though we'll be interrupted in a few days.

You can do some retconning in, if need be.

Getting slammed following Easter weekend... should be able to update games later tonight, sorry for the delay.

RPG Superstar 2014 Top 16, RPG Superstar 2012 Top 16

No worries. I think none of us are surprised a holiday weekend included a slowdown in posting. :)

RPG Superstar 2014 Top 16, RPG Superstar 2012 Top 16

Head's up: I'll be heading back down to St. Martin one last time to drag Dr. The Old Ball and Chain home, and won't be updating April 21-28. I'll hopefully get right back into it when I get home, though since the wife will be back it may take us a couple days to unpack and get back into a routine.

Hey guys, sorry I've been quieter of late; we're in the middle of a big system conversion at work and I've hardly had a spare moment. On top of that, I've been trying to prep like crazy for my annual CabinCon trip this weekend (Thursday - Monday), so I'll be entirely offline during that span as well.

RPG Superstar 2014 Top 16, RPG Superstar 2012 Top 16

So I know Pain and Bomby are going to PaizoCon? Anyone else? I'm looking forward to meeting folks.


HP 98/98; AC 19, T 14, FF 15; F+9, R+14, W+15; Init +8; Perc+23 (24 vs traps); SR 27; immune to cold

Alas no. I'll be off to GenCon but not PaizoCon.

Graduation Weekend, please feel free to GMPC.

RPG Superstar 2014 Top 16, RPG Superstar 2012 Top 16

I'm heading to PaizoCon this coming weekend, leaving Thursday afternoon and not getting back until Tuesday night. I don't expect to be posting in that time.

If any of you will be there (I know Pain and Bomb-y will), please look for me and say hi!

RPG Superstar 2014 Top 16, RPG Superstar 2012 Top 16

Hey all,

Just wanted to kind of mention that I hope we can all be patient with the current Paizo site outages (which I also hope will end ASAP). I know it's disrupting my posting flow/times and I assume it's doing the same for you all.

In addition, I'm having some workplace drama: My immediate supervisor retired effective immediately last night (i.e. he was more or less forced out) and I suspect I'm going to be picking up much -- if not all -- of his work. I have no intention of stopping any games and still hope to update 5-10 times a week (as the site allows right now) as I'm a STRONG believer that regular momentum is critical in PBP. However, just in case there is some disruption, please be patient. I promise I won't abandon you!

I'm afraid you're stuck with us, Mott. We can all see the light at the end of the tunnel, having entered Book 5...

Uh, much more worried about fast healing 15. That's the concern.

RPG Superstar 2014 Top 16, RPG Superstar 2012 Top 16

I think that'd be less of a problem if you guys were at full strength instead of cowering. It's looking a tough fight, though, especially with him applying negative levels to you.

I went back and read through most of our game here over the last two nights and a slow day at the office today, and I gotta say, this is one of the best things I think I've ever participated in and helped create.

You guys are all phenomenal.

RPG Superstar 2014 Top 16, RPG Superstar 2012 Top 16

I'm actually afraid to go back and read all that, I think. I worry about keeping Hektir's character consistent...and I feel he's strayed a bit over time. I hope he's still mostly the same over time.

But it's neat that you did that. I think I might get enough courage to do that sometime too. This game and my completed CotCT and Shackled City, of course. There are years of group-built memories living in those games.

RPG Superstar 2014 Top 16, RPG Superstar 2012 Top 16

Just FYI, these are a new monster type called troops. They're similar to swarms but with grown-ups. However, like swarms, you can't really target individual ones with spells.

Also, FYI, if you guys like them, I have a book of monstrous troops that's my best reviewed thing so far. :)

RPG Superstar 2014 Top 16, RPG Superstar 2012 Top 16

Also, just to make sure it's clear, the enemies have cover from their burned-out shelters. The explosive device was fired in an arc.

RPG Superstar 2014 Top 16, RPG Superstar 2012 Top 16

I was writing up a couple locations in one of my other PBPs (that almost all of you are in) and realized I handle Perception checks in a couple way, so want to make sure it's understood how I'm doing it in all my campaigns (I know its late to make sure this is clear, but better than never, I guess):

Perception checks that I consider more passive, I'll do under spoilers, i.e. if someone walks into a room and has a chance to notice something broken (or a hidden body/critter), I'll do that under a spoiler and you can see if you succeed.

I don't tend to do that if a module says "if a PC searches the rubble/body/whatever, he notices XX on a Perception check..." I only give you those checks (sometimes under spoilers, sometimes I'll roll myself, sometimes I'll ask you to do it) if you guys specifically tell me you're searching that area. I just want to make sure you all know that so if I don't give you a spoilered section you don't think there's nothing there to be found.

Let me know if that doesn't make sense/you have any questions.

RPG Superstar 2014 Top 16, RPG Superstar 2012 Top 16

Man, this fight is brutal.


retired (AP completed)

yeah, guaranteed damage from multiple sources each round has a way of chewing through hps!

Yeah, I'm going to confess ignorance here. Wasn't sure where Pems laid down his fog, thought she was advancing under its cover back towards our line. Then the Run forward 120', towards the southern building, seeking cover, and I find Tsin's standing out in the middle of everything on the map.

RPG Superstar 2014 Top 16, RPG Superstar 2012 Top 16

Sorry. I do have the fog on the map (the gray circle, but I should have noted that). You actually do have cover, but there's just limited cover in this case (and some of the mortars and explosions are indirect fire, so the cover's not pertaining in these cases). The 10-ft. squares also mean you started fairly far away.

RPG Superstar 2014 Top 16, RPG Superstar 2012 Top 16

Hey guys, sorry for messing up the end of that last fight. I didn't realize Quinn's hp status and thought we were about to have a near-TPK.

Also, FYI, work is hitting me hard right now. I've also got my folks coming to visit over the weekend -- Long story short, my posting may be spotty through the weekend (though I'm hoping I can sneak in some time tomorrow and/or Friday).

Assuming we can get 1000gp worth of oils (or something close to it), Pems, do you want to do the roll? Who does the roll? Who do you want to do the roll?

Hektir is geared up to make you man (could happen...you could be a real boy).

I would love the GM to roll. Only question is: the d20PFSRD has two charts, an official chart from the CRB and an expanded one with all sorts of odd races. Which one should I use?

RPG Superstar 2014 Top 16, RPG Superstar 2012 Top 16

I'm comfortable with the expanded chart if everyone else is. I'll let any answers be posted tonight/before I get up and roll sometime tomorrow (before 2 p.m. Eastern).

The chart(s).

Ironic.

Also different than the result I rolled when I did a test check the previous night, which is a little disappointing.
