Level 2: The Cellars


Scarab Sages

Hi, looking for 4-6 lvl 1 or 2 PFS legal characters to play the first level of the Emerald Spire.

This will be for PFS credit and is repayable for lvl 1's.
Expected posting rate will be once/day

Sovereign Court

I could probably be strong-armed into playing this ;-)


I wouldn't mind having a go at this either.

Scarab Sages

You are both in if you want, just need a few more players and we can get started. I'll open up gameplay and discussion so you can dot in.

I will need to throw together another character, but I have heard a lot about emerald spire and would like to see what the hype is! Any suggestions on build class?

Dark Archive

I'll roll up a character. I can probably post at LEAST once a day

K if this character works I'll go ahead and set it up as an official PFS character and input all the data.

K, looks like we got at least 4 players so it's a go. I'll wait a day to see if more people show up and we can get started once everyone is ready.

My only suggestion on what class to play; what ever you want to play ;)


I'd like to join. I can roll up a character today.


Would you prefer fresh characters? I'm guessing at least a couple 2nd level characters would increase survivability...but I'm up for anything.

Grand Lodge

Tenerek would love to apply.. he needs updating with the spoils of his latest adventure but he is still level 1.

Human Slayer (archer) lvl 1

Grand Lodge

The Goat is reporting for duty, Sir!... Summit, sit!


Woof!


I would love to do this for PFS. I have a 2 gnome alchemist who would be fun for it. I've been wanting to play the spire since it came out.

Grand Lodge

Level 2 paladin reporting for recruitment.

Never before played the Spire and I will really like to go through it if possible.

I can post twice a day or even more. I like both RP and strategy.

Shadow Lodge

I would be very interested in this, I have a few different characters who are level one or two, and a race boon or two lying around waiting to be used.


Interested as will make something up love healy types.

Wizard: Spells per Day: (2+1/2+1 DC:14+spell level), Spells Known: 0th - All but Air School 1st - Expeditious Excavation, Grease, Mage Armor, Magic Missile, Shield, Stone Fist

------------------
SPECIAL ABILITIES
------------------
Acid Cloud (Su) As a standard action, you can create a 5-foot-radius cloud of acid vapor within 30 feet that lasts for 1 round. This cloud deals 1d6+0 points of acid damage to all creatures in the cloud and sickens them for 1 round. A successful Fortitude save DC 13 negates the sickened effect and halves the damage. Creatures that begin their turn inside the cloud can move out that turn without penalty, but those that enter the cloud are affected. You can use this ability 6 times per day.

Air Opposition School You have chosen air spells as an opposition school. Preparing an air spell takes up two spell slots of the same level. You take a -4 penalty on any skill checks made when crafting a magic item that has an air spell as a prerequisite.

Arcane Bond (Su) You have selected to establish a powerful arcane bond with an object.

Bonded Object Objects that are the subject of an arcane bond must fall into one of the following categories: amulet, ring, staff, wand, or weapon. These objects are always masterwork quality. Weapons acquired at 1st level are not made of any special material. If the object is an amulet or ring, it must be worn to have effect, while staves, wands, and weapons must be held in one hand. When attempting to cast a spell without your bonded object worn or in hand, you must make a concentration check or lose the spell (DC 20 + the spell's level). A ring or amulet occupies the ring or neck slot accordingly.

Earth Supremacy (Su) You gain a +2 enhancement bonus to your CMD to resist bull rush, drag, reposition, trip, and overrun attempts as long as you are touching the ground. In addition, you gain a +1 insight bonus on melee attack and damage rolls whenever both you and your foe are touching the ground. At 20th level, earth and stone do not block the line of effect of your spells, although they do still block your line of sight.

Traits

Focused Mind: Your childhood was either dominated by lessons of some sort (be they musical or academic) or by a horrible home life that encouraged your ability to block out distractions to focus on the immediate task at hand. You gain a +2 trait bonus on concentration checks.

Librarian (Dark Archives Faction): You are trained to manage and maintain books, and you find it easy to procure information from tomes. You gain a +1 bonus on Linguistics or Profession (librarian) checks, and one of these skills (your choice) becomes a class skill for you. Once per day when you would gain a bonus on a skill check from reading a book, you can increase that bonus by 1.

Scarab Sages

I've got this never-used Nagaji sorcerer!

Early Life:

Ss'alat remembers virtually nothing of his early childhood, except two things. His nightly prayers to Nalinivati and the traumatic memory of being captured by slavers seeking 'exotic wares'. He vaguely remembers a cramped and long voyage chained in a ship's hold that left him in the Sothis slave markets.

He was bought, then adopted, by a kindly tradesman, Imhotpe, and his wife, Duathor. They never had children of their own. They also bought and adopted the adoptive siblings of Ss'alat: his older human brothers, Djeru and Nenebni, his younger half-elf brother, Mah, and his younger half-orc sister, Anet.

Despite the strange mix of blood, Ss'alat and his adoptive family got along quite well. They all worked hard in the spice and perfume business of Imhotpe and Duathor. Ss'alat had what proved a useful talent in a place like Sothis where vipers are commonplace. Vipers were calm and placid around him. Ss'alat soon made extra money for the family by safely removing dangerous vipers from the houses and shops of many Sothis merchants.

Ss'alat never killed the vipers he caught. Nor would he sell them to people to be killed for food. They felt like kindred spirits. He released most outside the city walls of Sothis. He also sold some to travellers who were in search of exotic, if dangerous, pets or guard animals.

As he got older, Ss'alat started to be bullied by local toughs. Always when he was alone and returning home after releasing his venomous charges. He was an easy target for bulling, with his green scaly hide and his bright gold reptilian eyes. Because of his dense reptilian hide and bones, he was heavy and tough for his lithe frame. But this did not lessen the bullying.

He was strangely stoic about his plight. Whenever he was bullied, he would have vivid dreams at night. Always of a large viper with gold and precious stones for scales and smelling of exotic perfumes. She always talked to him in a kindly way. Assuring him that he was not helpless. He was small, but he was powerful. Just like his legless kindred, the vipers.

One day the dreams of Ss'alat became manifest. While escorting Anet home, they were confronted by several toughs who had bullied Ss'alat in the past. They let it be known that they were going to beat him to death this time and then have some "fun" with his sister, who was scarcely less freakish than him!

This vile threat to his sister caused Ss'alat to lose his temper for the first time. Ss'alat immediately grappled with the ruffian closes to him, which took everyone by surprise. Instinctively, Ss'alat bit the ruffian he was struggling with. Suddenly, two of his fangs were much larger than before this bite and immediately dwindled back to their original size as soon as Ss'alat drew back. His foe started convulsing immediately and died soon after. The other toughs lost their courage in numbers and fled in terror.

Although he was defending Anet and was not punished for the killing, Ss'alat was confused and frightened about what happened. He was fearful he might harm his family. Fortunately, an old friend of Imhotpe and Duathor had recently come for a visit. It was Chatkhanu, a sorceress of no mean skill originally from Varisia. She stayed with the family longer than planned, to teach Ss'alat how to control his talents. She also paved the way for him to become a novice in the Scarab Sages faction of the Pathfinder Society.

Personality:

Ss'alat seems shy and retiring when anyone first meets him. Although his charm and elegance are obvious when he speaks. He is fastidious and will berate friends for slovenly behaviour. Seldom angry, will will become volatile if a friend is threatened, or anyone tries maltreating vipers. With scaly skin banded in stripes of bright and muted green, and round reptilian eyes of bright yellow with slits for pupils, he usually considers disguise an exercise in futility.

Motivation:

Ss'alat is just plain curious about the world. He is interested in finding and experiencing magic. He also wants to find out where he came from before becoming a slave.

Shadow Lodge

More than a plenty signed up, any chance there will be two tables?

Grand Lodge

ill dot in here is my character
sangre
ill admit i dont know anything about the campaign but i would enjoy gettig into it.

Scarab Sages

@Deane Beman; I'm fine either way, but I agree..some characters with xome xp/lvl 2's will increase the chances of your survival.
I'm fine with running 2 table, once I've got the maps set up and read the adventure it's not that much work to run two games.

To tally interest:

Luke_Parry
Deane Beman
Aweynedd88
Dustin Ammerman

Heofthehills - ?
Ss'alat - nagagi sorcerer lvl 1
Vahanian 89 - Quartz - alchemist lvl 2
Hales8808 - Alexandria Shardonz cleric
Doombringer the GM - paladin 1.2
Chaul Drammerson
Erik Sklavos - Toragg the grimm - dwarf wizard lvl 1
Dylos - various
Xien - lvl 2 Paladin (As a note, don't expect too much roleplay in this, it's not a scenario..it's a dungeon crawl module)
Elvis Littlegoat
Tenerek Argentson - Slayer lvl 1

Just to check that everyone understand this is Society play and you need a legal PFS char set up to play and I didn't miss anyone/have someone down twice.

In order of signing up:
Tenerek Argentson and Erik Sklavos can join this game, should make for a 6 player table

I'll set up a second (possibly a 3th as well) table later today

Silver Crusade

Applying with my Paladin, has already 2 chronicles under his belt :-)

Grand Lodge

Level 1 Halfling Roughrider w/dog. PFS experience 2 assignments.


I have a lvl 1 paladin that could join if there is room. he has 2 xp already. or a lvl 2 Arcanist if spells are needed. or even a lvl 1 brawler.


Whew. If you were to set up a second table, I think we all owe you at least a 'thanks'. I at least have my Paladin as PFS legal and should set up all the relevant information from Mythweavers to the profile on Paizo later today.

Liberty's Edge

Applying for interest with Tabitha Roland, an archery Bard with one experience.
