Just a rmeinder to have all your sheets updated by the weekend when the special begins.
Also, please let me know if you have played any scenario with this character where a piece of the Sky Key was recovered. For the record, those scenarios are (spoilers for some of Season 6):
Legacy of the Stonelords
Scions of the Sky Key Part 3: The Golden Guardian
Test of Tar Kuata
Tapestry's Toil
Returned to Sky (seeing as this is a 7-11 tier, I will assume no)
GM Zoomba |
I've added a link to the Slides doc that will be used for our table in my profile and to the campaign, as well as the 'Global Map' for the special and a link to the overseer thread. If you have issues accessing any of these, or editing our table's Slides, please let me know.
GM Zoomba |
It begins on Saturday. That said, there is about a day of mustering/preparation before the adventure begins in earnest. Please let me know later today (I'm EST) whether you can grab one of your own characters or if you'll need a pregen, and if so which one.
Midri |
I always forget. If you have a skill check that lets you use multiple skills and you have all of them can you use them all or only choose one to use?
GM Zoomba |
Only choose to use one. However, in this case each of the skill checks is about a different thing: if you have multiple of them (Diplomacy, Know Arcana, Know Local) feel free to roll each!
Kuwabara Kasei |
OK this is Paladin, I've got this character just about updated to 4th. I had to do it manually because my computer with Herolab on it is still down. Oh well! Even though he's below-tier, he's a hell of a bruiser, especially when he gets enlarged.
Edit: When I get my computer working again, hopefully I will be able to update him using Hero Lab. Can I fix any numbers or anything like that which I've messed up when I do that?
GM Zoomba |
There is always a lot of box text in scenario starters, and this special more than most.
A quick bullet points for what's going on right now, in case Kreighton Shaine's long-windedness confused you:
You can't physically bring anything from the past back with you back with you, but notes and experiences are something else altogether. Not much is know about this time, at least in any detail, and you and all the other Pathfinders have just a matter of hours to explore and discover as much as you can.
GM Zoomba |
The new map has been added to the slides above. Again: let me know if you cannot access or edit it (and if you can't edit, describe your movements for now and I will adjust when I look into what's the issue.)
For thsoe of you who haven't played online with me before, anyone in Bold in the initiative order can go, the precise order doesn't matter. Due to the time sensitive nature of this scenario, if there is no action for a day-and-a-half I will delay you. If you know you will be out of touch for a few days, please let me know and we can work something out
Midri |
I can edit and access the map so no worries on my end.
I do like the bold initiative idea (makes it easy to see when your up.
Also the quick bullet points was most helpful. (good idea that)
Midri |
Is it worthwhile making an alias as the Eidolon to separate which posts are mine personally and which are his or is that not needed?
Wadi Ahk'kolon |
I think as a general rule you should make a separate alias for your Eidolon as they can act on their own initiative separate from yours. Most other players have done so in my experience. Still it is the DM's call as to whether it is required :)
If you decide not to, then you should clearly delineate your Eidolon's post from yours by using a HEADER for example.
GM Zoomba |
I just googled Fire Elemental and looked for something that was quadrupedal and looked interesting. Sadly it's not a Paizo art so not a forum avatar option :(
Kuwabara Kasei |
You're using up one of your PFS character slots for that forum alias, you know? For pet classes it's usually better to make one of the regular aliases since the Eidolon doesn't get a separate character number.
GM Zoomba |
If you want I can use your current Xander profile image Xander's icon on the map.
Also regarding the PFS thing, as long as "Xander Fire Eidolon" hasn't posted more than 10 times, you can always switch teh name over to another (new) character and just remember that PFS # is that name (and create an Alias for the eidolon now.
GM Zoomba |
As you used your aid token this encounter, it will now be shuffled off to a different table. Does anyone have a preference as to which tier may be unexpectedly blessed? (Otherwise I'll choose totally randomly)
Wadi Ahk'kolon |
I elect our Aid Token to go to a Tier 1-2 table!
Kuwabara Kasei |
Sorry for not updating for a couple days. I'll have a post up tonight.

GM Zoomba |
It happens. Normally I'm less quick to go 'moving on and treating people as delaying', it's just b/c this is a multi-table timed special that I'm slightly more trigger-happy
Midri |
so a bit more on what i did with the map
made a 2square by 2sqaure white square to represent the create pit spell (Dc17 reflex 6 rd duration)
Odo's old location was directly above Kuwabara's location and has been moved to his current location to represent Midri's efforts dragging him.
Im waiting to see the result of the create pit spell before i decide what to do with Xander's turn (he either 5ft's and full attacks if the Slaugrak makes his reflex save or he goes airborne (minimum fly skill check roll is 23 and goes in pursuit of the other trog around the corner (perception check?) Speed 40
GM Zoomba |
Oof that was a lot of text when laid out like that. Any questions about anything, let me know.
Midri |
I'm going to say its safe to assume for these checks that we cannot take 10 since there danger nearby.
Also say Midri has run out of skills to use is there a place where she can wait and take not take damage if someone else is still doing checks?
i have all the knowledge's but id rather not get the rest of the party sniped while spending round after round trying to get the number required for a successful addition. (since i cant seem roll above a 10 with Midri this campaign.)
GM Zoomba |
Correct on take-10 not being an option at the moment.
You can essentially duck and cover or hide a bit aways from the Plaza to avoid damage for that period if you wish. you would be fully protected, but unable to either document any of the material in the plaza yourself or try and defend those who do so.
GM Zoomba |
Apologies to Kuwabara for bottoming twice in such a short time: normally I would wait a bit longer but given that one option involves only specific skills and the heavy success of the party on that second 'round' I felt it best to move forward
Midri |
Im assuming there is a very simple solution to this but im not sure exactly how you roll for miss chance. Do you just roll a 1d100 labelled miss chance or?
Wadi Ahk'kolon |
Midri, that is what I usually do. Just be sure you label which die range is actually a miss first.
Midri |
ahh got it so you would say 1d100 100 is hit and then see what it gets you, got it.
I'll do that for Midri's turn, (waiting to see what the melee characters do, as I am debating between moving to close and grease)
GM Zoomba |
Yeah, I usually assume low would miss, high would hit unless you prefer the reverse and note it in your post
So if you go, High misses and then roll an 84, you'd miss. But if you just put down the d100 I'll assume 1-20 misses for blur, 1-50 misses for invisible/displacement/total concealment, etc
GM Zoomba |
So, Now you know one of the reasons I was especially 'push forward' the last week was that we were approaching a new Act.
There a lot to take in those three posts, so feel free to ask any questions. I'll try to put up a summary post here later today. Also check the Global Map link above: it might help give you a picture (sorry, no pun intended)
As a nice side effect however, the rapid shifts through time seem to have paritually re-invigorated you. Each of you can choose TWO of the options below. If you'd like, you can pikc the same option twice instead:
• Recover one or more spells or spell slots whose total levels are equal to your character level.
• Regain one daily use of a class feature. If you would normally be able to use the feature five or more times in one day, instead regain two uses.
• Heal 1d2 points of damage to all ability scores.
• Heal 1d8 hit points. Add your character level to the
number of hit points recovered.
Let me know which two each of you'd like to select. Of course there's that mob growing.....
Midri |
Midri will regain HP and Spell slots as she was fortunate enough to not have taken any ability damage.
HP Regain: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10 so all of them.
and will regain 5 spell slots which is all of them I have used. (grease, mage armor, shield, and 2 for create pit.)
on a side not are any of our active duration buffs (Xanders mage armor for example) expired due to our shift in time or?
Wadi Ahk'kolon |
Wadi will elect to recover spell slots and daily use of a class feature. He will recover 5 total spell slots and 2 uses of his Elemental Ray.
