Shackled City (Pathfinder) - GM_Chris

Game Master Chris Shannon 719

This will be the Shackled City adventure path using the Pathfinder rule set. However, the existing deities (i.e. St. Cuthbert, Pelor, Wee Jas) will not be converted to similar Golarion gods.

Congrats Glimmil.


Yeah. An excuse to delay a bit longer. Oh. Oops. Congrats!

Still looking for a laptop and time. Sorry.

Baby, mom and I are now back at home. Everyone's dandy!

For those of you with kids, I now understand why its hard to get even a few minutes for things now.

I should be checking and posting, slightly less regularly, as we adjust.


New computer purchased. I'll be posting tonight. Need to rebuild or convert the map though. Actually, I can upload it to Google Docs from the dying computer and download it here. Duh!

My plan is to post a couple times a day again. The new computer is small enough I can transport it easily. Also, I can take it to a cafe for lunch to post.

Game on!

Almost.

I'll be moving the party into the next room of the current dungeon crawl tonight.


I love it when a plan comes together. ;)

Latte, internet, and PbP. It's a good lunch.

Good lair for a dragon this. I wonder if there's another down here and if so where it is?

Lol. Good timing. How could I resist such an invitation?

Hah. I wonder if a brief update might be helpful? In specific, a sense of how much time has really passed in our last few encounters.


Story Summary 13b
(I owe the party a 13a at some point. This will cover from the beginning of the Fiery Sanctum.)

The party arrives at the front doors of the lair. Glimmil barely avoids disintegration, but does some cool spoon work.
13489 (about 5 minutes)

The party fights the female minotaur and finds a holy avenger. 13522 and 13543 (about 5 minutes with searching)

Fight with tarry demodands. Lots of weapons are lost, but finally recovered from the dead demands. 13561 (about 5 minutes with searching)

Fight with vrocks. 13615 (about 1 minute. Little searching required and party stated they were moving along)

Party encounters dragon at the lake of lava with the tapestry. 13646

BTW, happy one year anniversary since the start of all this in the recruitment thread. 8000+ posts between the gameplay and discussion threads. And we're more or less on track to finish this in less time than it took me to get a bachelor's degree.

Just stumbled upon this. I think it is still true. Let us hope we can maintain things.

It's been good times.


Wow! How time flies. We might make graduation by June 2015.

I'm going to be pretty busy this week with apartment hunting, so I anticipate pretty slow posting. Sorry in advance!


Sorry for my absence. 21 hour days working for Ferguson and now in Seattle to see my brother and my new niece for Thanksgiving.

Dude, I want to hear more about this. What did you do? How did it go?

Also, welcome back.

Also, Hunter Pence?! I'm jealous.


I did my usual thing with spreadsheets so was perfectly safe--can't say I was bored this time though. Looks like things are winding down for now. I suspect there will be a second wave next weekend.

Oh, and Jacob says, "Hi!"

Hi Jacob!

Also glad you're safe. You're working the post-Ferguson protests in Oakland, or aiding the actual town of Ferguson?


Oakland. Although we provided mutual aid to BART yesterday. I think we've also been up to Berkeley.

I haven't seen you in ages. I remember the good ol' days when you used to lurk out in the open...oh, I miss those days.

Also, it appears that you misspelled "D-y-r-a-n-t" in your post, above. Not sure how you felt it started with an 'F'. Weird.

Which usually indicates something inherently heroic and good at tunneling.

As usual, I do feel a need to point out that dragon senses provide blindsense, not blindsight. Though of course a powerful dragon likely has other tricks, so I assume this one has some such ability going on.


Blind sense. Blindsight. You say potato...

You still miss, but if you hit maybe it would do more damage. Maybe. Maybe I'll just cheat. ;-)

+1.

I still hate him, but that's freakin' funny.


Protests every day this weekend plus my son's soccer state cup so I'm a bit busy. I'm going to wait a bit longer for Finneas to post on his own since it allows me to procrastinate a bit longer.


I've read Toffitt and Finneas's posts, just pausing a bit to see if there are any last posts before they collar the tree.


Frankly I think Finneas would work harder to save his mother than he would to save his god, but I really miss the interaction between mom and dad.


Glimmil, the dwarf is dead. It appears you missed a post.


I'll have to do an accounting of which Cagewrights got away, but the party is free to return to Cauldron at this point.

Everyone should also level up.

As of this level, here are infusions that Toffitt regularly hands out to the party:

Enlarge person (Finneas) — this can be renewed if used
Shield (Finneas) — this can be renewed if used
Fly (Finneas) — +7 to Fly rolls
Barkskin (Finneas) — +5 AC
Ablative barrier (Atol) – converts 5hp to nonlethal/attack; up to 50

There's a possibility of more, including:

Delayed consumption + freedom of movement or death ward — can be activated as immediate action


Male Human (Per +7 | Fort +17 Ref +13 Will +22 | AC 29 (f28/t15) | CMD 22)

Sweet. Atol thanks you daily for his infusion. How long does the Ablative Barrier last if not drained of HP?

That said, normally, when I'm not drained, my HP aren't too much of a problem. Might be better to lay that on Finneas or Glimmil both of whom seem to absorb a lot of damage. :)

Important things I must remember for playing...

1) Glimmil has 50% crit resistance from Fortification

2) Glimmil has evasion

I totally forgot these things for the last leg of our adventures.

Yeah I've been forgetting Furious Focus. I need a magic item that lets me drink 4 infusions at once. Is there a magical beer hat in Pathfinder?

I forgot Furious Focus too... And I always forget 25% fortification, although Toffitt so rarely gets hit... Oops, sorry to gloat.

Toffitt would insist on giving the Ablative Barrier to Atol, because we need him alive to heal us. And, well, he feels fond of the big lug.
