I was going to bring this kineticist but it looks like we could use some divine support. I have several other characters available but they are all arcane or martial. Does anyone have a divine character they want to switch to? I have an idea for a cleric I have been playing with in my brain but it would take me a day or two to get that put together.
Or we can play with no divine if that works for everyone?
Kita Kyuichi |
Stats and Fluff updated. No day job.
As to healing, that is why I bought a couple of potions of CLW. I do have 2 XP (and 2 PP remaining that could be spent).
I could purchase a wand of Infernal Healing that the Wizards could use.
Presumably the wizards would also have skill in UMD which would allow them to use the wand of CLW outside of battle.
@DM: I believe that I entered my PFS ID with a "-1" in your spreadsheet. This character is actually "-2".
Kita Kyuichi |
Yidric has +7 in UMD.
Excellent. So, with the previously mentioned Wand of CLW, we should be fine with healing unless Bigguyinblack doesn't want it used on anyone else.
I think that I am still going to spend my points on a wand of infernal healing. I'll need it eventually.
Boolar Rejic |
Wizards don't get UMD as a skill. A wand of Infernal Healing is more efficient for post combat healing but some characters either won't use it or won't allow it to be used on them.
Boolar has no problem loaning his wand to Yidric to use on whomever needs it. Nor does he have any objections to Infernal Healing.
Funny thing about that spell, I know a guy who misunderstood how Infernal Healing worked and built a Sorcerer who could cast extended Infernal Healing without increasing the spell level. It doesn't give 60+ points of healing like he wanted but it does give 20. He saved players a lot of wand charges with that character.
I'll stick to playing Boolar.
Kita Kyuichi |
Wizards don't get UMD as a skill.
No it is not a class skill. However, it will be a very useful skill for a wizard who eventually wants to try to read a scroll of a higher level. True, though, not likely to be invested in at 1st level.
A wand of Infernal Healing is more efficient for post combat healing but some characters either won't use it or won't allow it to be used on them.
I can certainly understand RP reasons to not use/allow the spell, but it is not actually an evil spell interestingly enough.
I've purchased the wand on my character sheet as long as GM allows the purchase before the campaign.
Boolar Rejic |
Using higher level scrolls is a fairly easy caster level check. UMD could be used to read high level divine scrolls but the UMD check is actually pretty high.
Skaf |
Ok, cool, I will just bring Skaf then. I am also buying a wand of CLW with the 2 PP from my first chronicle so we have that available to split some charges as well.
GM Chie |
You most certainly have time to make purchases before heading off to the Dragon Empires. If there is any other purchases you would like to make, now is your time!
Skaf |
Forgot about this:
1: Player / Forum Name - Tundran
2: Character Name - Skaf
3: Classes / Level - aerokineticist 1
4: Faction - Grand Lodge
5: Day Job Roll (if Any) - none
Boolar Rejic |
In case it comes up.
Know Your Basic Bear Attacks.
Yidric Belove |
A possibility is he might not have dotted the thread and forgotten about it. Happens all the time.
Kita Kyuichi |
I am the samurai. I have posted several times.
Is there another thread that I am missing somewhere?
Edit: Ah, I didn't see that there were posts in the Gameplay thread. Very sorry. I will take catch up and post very soon.
GM Chie |
Thanks ;D
Holiday weekend was a little rough, I'll have a post up tonight.
Kita Kyuichi |
I am purchasing a Silver Wakizashi during the downtime.
After looking at my character sheet, I realized I didn't have any silver weapons. I also don't have any cold iron, but I don't quite enough money to convert my flail to cold iron.
Anyone willing to loan me 5 gold?
Kita Kyuichi |
Sure, I have 5 gold I can loan you...just took it off of my character sheet...
Thanks. Selling my Light Flail and buying a Cold Iron Light Flail.
Boolar Rejic |
You can't actually give other players gold in PFS. But since Mythryndyr is level 1 there is an easy workaround. Mythryndyr can buy the cold iron flail, Loan it to you during the quest, then sell it for full value because he is still level one and can sell anything for full value between adventures except consumables.
Mythryndyr |

Thanks Boolar, I'm still kinda new at this...
Kita, that's what I'll do...
Buying cold iron flail and loaning it to Kita...
Boolar Rejic |
Boolar doesn't have any desire to kill students or potential guards so he would switch his spells to 1 magic missile 3 grease.
Kita Kyuichi |
I apologize if I am taking over the story for this first part of this chapter.
It is important for Kita to at least make the attempt to reacquire the map diplomatically. If this last entreaty doesn't produce results, I will obviously be done with diplomacy for the likely remainder of this quest while the stealthy folks take over.
When that happens, I'll take on whatever role will help the party, stepping back and letting Mythryndyr or whomever to take the lead. I imagine any role I play would be the part of a distraction at that point.
Mythryndyr |
No worries, Kita. Your character has given us an "in" so to speak, in this entire scenario but even moreso in this particular quest, that we wouldn't have had otherwise...I'll continue to follow your lead...
Abolt Greenseed |
I felt it made complete sesne. Abolt is pretty our of his element with a new culture so he would be a bit more circumspect, which unfortunately in PbP is hard to play.
Boolar Rejic |
Boolar isn't comfortable with all of the lying so he is staying silent.
Kita Kyuichi |

Everything Kita has said has been truthful. I have been very careful to walk a narrow line.
I wanted to avoid mentioning my Daimyo's name and country, but felt that it was needed for the story to work.
Well... I never fleshed out if the Daimyo actually had any children, let alone grandchildren. However, what I said was that he might send his grandchildren in the future.
I have certainly reached the extent of where I can take the story without starting to lie, and that is something I am trying very hard not to do.
Yidric Belove |
A little early, but just to note I will be organizing the PFS portion at a local convention Thursday May 25th - Monday May 29th, so I will be either post-lite or unavailable during that time.
Botting Yidric: Pretty simple. He goes up and attacks, then does a Parry and Riposte if necessary (dice in his profile). He usually tries to help on Diplomacy with a +6 modifier.
Yidric Belove |
Just a reminder, I'm in going into convention organizer mode starting now. I have botting instructions above.
Abolt Greenseed |
The problem with playing a halfling when a mysterious woman stands up and declares "I am the late Princess" you want to respond "Your not late, we just got here." but as a player you know she will probably melt your face.
Mythryndyr |
I agree with Kita...means we probably gotta fight all four though...got the magic missiles (and maybe another classic insult) ready to fly Boolar?
Boolar Rejic |
Boolar is prepared to cast many Magic Missiles.
Kita Kyuichi |
However this ends up, this mission has been a lot of fun.
This is probably the best written session that I have been a part of.
Chie, you have done an excellent job as the GM! Thank you for organizing this!
Boolar Rejic |
Completely agree. I did this at high tier in a single 4 hour slot. Needles to say I missed out on much. This has been entertaining.
And much of that was Chie and Kita.
Kita Kyuichi |
Looks like Jiang Fei, if she is still alive after Yidric's massive hit.
-Posted with Wayfinder
Mythryndyr |
I was confused...your readied action hit her, she attacked you and missed, so I thought you would attack again before her...but I'm still sort of green when comes to this...
If Yidric took her out, perhaps Skaf's last spell took Zheng out as well...that'd put them both at 20+ damage...if Zheng's out, I'll probably fire at Jianghong to discourage him and maybe with just him and Yu Xin left, they'll call this off...
