No problem, we need all the help as we seem to be really bad at our tactics to this point.
That is why there is a disclaimer with the Summoner(Master Summoner) telling people that the class can essentially take over a campaign because of the number of summoned monsters that can be called.

Reading the description, Shifting Sand is a 20' spread.
Meh, squares are easier and I'm not going to put that fine a point on it. I believe >50% of the square'd be affected anyway. I'll agree that the corners ought to be outside, however.
A step back to column 17 will get you out. That said, targets are outside of the light spread of dancing lights (20') and have a 20% miss chance.

Can we have Auri make a spellcraft check to see if he knows about the spell the druid used to transform since I can't roll above a 3? If you want us to make the check then please don't use mine.
Kzrira Maiwith |
Just thinking. I think that through DM fiat Auri should be allowed to take Dragon Form I/II/III at higher levels. It would be cool if he could become a real brass dragon, if even for short periods of time.
Ok, so this is probably a few (hundred) weeks off, but it would be really cool.
Karethas ibn Faradin |
I think the epic long fights have come from our lack of damage output, Kzrira not withstanding. Amir would do more, except that the dicebot hates him, and the rest of us are not damage focused. Plus, VooDoo likes to throw creative fights our way, which make us work a little harder to get in a good position :-).
Kzrira Maiwith |
Creative fights, you mean like having multiple air elementals, one of which is probably the real enemy, all over the place? If I could just hit mine once or twice more, I think I could help the rest of you. Unfortunately right now I have the big one trying to tornado me.
Kzrira Maiwith |
Perhaps Voodoo could create a new 11th level Mystery - Dragon Form - may use Form of the Dragon I as the spell. The duration is 1 minute per level. The time must be used in 1 minute intervals, but need not be continuous. At 13th level this increases to Form of the Dragon II, and at 15th level, Form of the Dragon III.

i'll be out of contact most of this week.
The AP has a year long break before the next chapter as Kelmarane redevelops. You are free to use the time as you like, Kelmarane related or not.
Some areas of interest to the PCs with possible future benefit suggested in the AP include:
Business, Reconstruction, Religion, Crime, Research,
Patrolling the Highlands, Travel, Romance, and Personal
Faelar Braegen |
Once getting back to Kelmarane (hopefully with Qilué) I shall spent the year either :
Researching (No surprise)
Business (Where I will sell and buy in books, to create a library or recreate the library in the monastery.)
Which ever you think would be more beneficial. I don't know what I could research, but I would research everything that I possibly could.
Kzrira Maiwith |
Hunting and patrolling is my key interest. Kzrira is also interested in magic and will likely study with Karethas to learn some magic --> eventually she is likely to take a level of wizard and then go Arcane Archer.
Helping fight crime, researching the Kelmarane area, and business are all of interest to Kzrira.
Aurichalcum |
I guess Auri would take the personal route, trying to untangle more about his growth into the great big dragon he's supposed to be, and any more legends about his fellow cousins, the great Brass Dragons. Ultimately he's looking for the mystical key to unlocking the might and power he feels he should have... as quixotic as that may be.
Karethas ibn Faradin |
Would there be a level up in order? Can we spend our ill-gotten gains?
Karethas will spend his time researching, building items for himself and others. I said it before, but i wanted to make sure everyone remembered: Anyone who wants wonderous items can get Karethas to build them, so half price.. Any spare time would be spent overseeing the reconstruction of the monestary, funding it by making minor wonderous items for the community.
Karethas ibn Faradin |
I believe this was the last figuring. Of course, it does not take into account any value that shield may have.
Okay...Look this over: (Bad news the count was slightly off on Karethas's sheet so the overall money is a little less but I triple checked it so I'm pretty sure its right...Excel is my friend.)

Amir Awad Hajjir |
I thought we agreed to ultimately sell it for distribution/fairness sake but I am noting that we didn't divy it up in the list above.
Karethas ibn Faradin |
Even if we sold the armor, wouldn't the total just go back to Kzrira in the form of gold? Oh, and can't Amir sell things for an additional 10%? Can that apply to the stuff we sold above?
Anyway, assuming the amount above is close to what Karethas will receive, then here is what I was thinking I would buy. Any input would be appreciated.

Karethas - Mount might be a good spell to pick up as well. It is a cheap 1st level spell, but if we get caught out in the open again, having a summonable horse for 8 hours would be nice.
For me, a Efficient Quiver and a Handy Haversack are my two principal purchases. Better armor perhaps.
A wand of Gravity Bow would be nice as well.
Karethas ibn Faradin |
You might want to consider:
Price 4,000 gp; Aura faint transmutation; CL 3rd; Weight 1 lb.
Each of these crimson leather bracers is emblazoned with the image of a soaring golden falcon scanning the ground for easy prey. They continually grant the wearer the benefits of the aspect of the falcon spell, though without the spell's physical transformation.
Construction Requirements
Cost 2,000 gp
Craft Wondrous Item, aspect of the falcon
Karethas would need a scroll of Aspect of the Falcon to create it because the spell is not on my caster list.
Amir Awad Hajjir |
1. About the armor - Oh yes, duh, that is just Kzrira's to sell.
2. I only save 10% on purchase of mundane goods but I supposedly get +10% on my sale of anything. I guess it is really up to Voodoo to determine whether I could see all of our stuff (conceivable over a year for sure) which would net us a decent extra 2000+ GP even if I only sold the unclaimed loot.
3. Am I out all my gear on Hota? I was never clear on that...I know she is dead at this point but was I able to retrieve my stuff to stash with our other treasure?
4. It seems to me Faelar should get scrolls, wands, utility type things. An animated shield? I think if you spend money on gear it should be things to keep you safe over things that make you hit harder, your singing/dancing is the biggest boost to damage so we need you conscious :p
Kzrira Maiwith |
Faelar - Make sure you have points in UMD. You already have a Headband of Cha +2. Using UMD, you can make great use of many wands and other items - scrolls for instance. As Amir said, it is boring, but your +1/+1 to Amir, my, and Karethas' summoned friends attacks is invaluable.
Faelar - I do not know if we sold them, but Amir and I both had Mithral Chain Shirts. It will cost 1k for a +1 enhancement, 4k for a +2 enhancement. That would help your AC. Also, the regular boring items, +1 Cloak of Resistance, are great.
Finally, you can always be creative and make up items that fit your character. A Lute of Grease or a Banjo of Entanglement or a Piccolo of Ear Piercing Scream or something of that sort. I assume that between you and Karethas, he would be able to create any of these. There are fairly good rules on the cost and methods of making specialized magic items in the magic item creation section of the d20 site.

Amir - I had the same thought. Realistically, a bunch of our stuff is probably buried as well, at least the heavy stuff like extra armor.

You might want to consider:
** spoiler omitted **
Karethas would need a scroll of Aspect of the Falcon to create it because the spell is not on my caster list.
As previously noted I'm axing the crit multiplier on that spell. It and all objects referring to it only give the percep and to hit bonuses. This makes it reasonable for a 1st level spell...
Also I'm not sure Karethas could access it from a scroll if he is not the right class to cast it in the first place unless he is UMDing it? You could hire a cooperative caster though.
Sheik Voodoo |
Karethas- no problems with any items requested though I do think mad monkeys is rather silly. :)
as for potential loots. I do think I went overboard due to whining by unnamed players. the loot in the AP is fine. I really want to hold you all as near as possible to the WBL found on the chart though.
At 5th level you should each have about 10-11,000 gp worth of gear. magic items are counted at full value. Amir is a bit over with his two magic weapons, but since he can't seem to hit anything, i'm ok with that for now. course, it wouldn't hurt if he sold off the scimitar and enhanced his heirloom weapon.
objects you may want to hold on to:
+1 good-aligned mace
diamond and jacinth
+2 lt fort breastplate
all shall become clear...
