Temple of Elemental Evil (Inactive)

Game Master Thomi Gallowshade

Thanksgiving is coming up.

I am thankful for Storymaster running an awesome old school game. His maps and links are awesome.

I am thankful Uldar our rogue tries to move things along.

I am thankful we have a fighter that deals massive damage, but sad our bard that gave +2/+2 buffs is gone as we were using six of them a round with my animal companion and druid on full attacks.

I am also thankful we have a good group and less than 2K XP to get to level 6.

Thanks a lot Trane! Those are very positive and encouraging words :)

I also give thanks for having the fierce and wild Trane that tears down our unlimited enemies!

Thanks a lot for this whole year of fantasy you have gave us so far John!

I am thankful we all have the opportunity to explore and share a story together.

Some inventory management is required. Let's try to summarize:

Anyone interested in:
- +1 War Axe (gleams with a soft white glow)
- handaxe +1

Some distribution of party items I propose:
Uldar
+1 shortsword
Endure elements potion
Cat's grace potion
Reduce person potion
Holy water vial
Spikes (iron) x52

Kalizama
Cloak of resistance +1
Wand of hold person (CL 5; DC 15) with 8 charges
Animate dead scroll
parchment sheets x17
pouches, small x6
pouches, large x5
Friends scroll (CL 3)
Magic missile (CL 3)
Mirror image scroll
Web scroll
Slow scroll (CL 3)
Endure elements scrolls
(can you please keep a list of your equipment in your profile here? At least those the party finds in the dungeon and you keep. It would make it much more easy for me to know what you have effectively claimed :) )

Thrane
Magic weapon oil
Ring of protection +1

Roran
Quicksilver
Potion Cure Moderate Wounds

Velcore
Chainmail +1
Morningstar +1
Prayer scroll
Cure light wounds potion

Once we agree with the distribution, I think we should mark any of those items with a [p] in the inventory so we remember the money if we sell them goes to the party.

About Brandor
He has a Heavy steel Shield +2 (from the dam), a scroll of restoration and a potion of cure serious wounds which are from the party. Shall we retrieve it before he leaves? Or is it lost with him?

Available money
With current selling we have an amount of 24967.18gp (will be a bit more if we sell the axes) after selling all the stuff. Yes we have been for months in that whole it was time to cash.

I propose to give back 4000gp to each of us 5. The remaining 4967.18gp I propose to spend on healing meterials, such as 2x wands of cure light wounds, scrolls of neutralize poison, remove paralysis, calm emotions and the like useful stuff we are going to need at one point or the other.

Any thoughts? Do you know what to do with your 4000gp? ^_^

You can find a link to the treasure spreadsheet in my status bar. The reasoning on the numbers you can find it there. I made an assumption of what we probably want to sell, but please, feel free to propose keeping anything with the "Selling" tag in red.

Wow Uldar this is awesome. I would love to have the gear you outlined for Velcore. I have not been with the group for most of the 1st level so I will only take 1000 gp of the 4000 gp the gear is more than enough.

Oh yeah, belt of giants strength +2 for me. Gotta get this stat maxed out haha.

Uldar, you are awesome with keeping track of all our loot and appropriately distributing it! Yes, I will take all of the items you suggested for me, and thank you! And I will see if I can figure out how to keep a list of my equipment in my profile. :-)

Velcore, I think you should go ahead and take your full 4000gp and use it to beef yourself up for our future endeavors. You were there for the worst of the battles.

If Brandor has left us, his character leaves with the equipment he had on him. I am hoping he is just temporarily out of action...

Trane buys an amulet that makes his natural strikes enchanted.
Amulet of might fists +1 = 4000gp

We could use some haste scrolls--to buy them 375gp. Half that to scribe. Wands at 225gp per charge is best value.

Definitely doubles Roran's effectiveness.

If everyone is fine with me taking 4000 gp then cool. But if someone wants something just out of there price range let me know I'll help you out.

Velcore will take all the gear and look for something to buy. Anyone have any recommendation for a cleric?

Most of the magic users you have met use divine spells instead of arcane spells. The wizard Burne in Hommlet is willing to teach the following spells to an arcane caster, at the price of 1,000 gp each. (Yes, he is somewhat greedy...).

First level
burning hands
magic missile
protection from evil
shield
spider climb
ventriloquism

Second level
audible glamer
continual light
levitate
ray of enfeeblement
web

Third level
dispel magic
fireball
suggestion
tongues

Since Kalizama can scribe scrolls, my suggestion is to allow her to scribe the spell Haste into her spellbook, if one of you has a scroll with the spell inscribed on it, and then she can scribe additional copies on scrolls.

During your downtime, Kalizama analyzes the scroll found among the remains of the Otyugh creature recently defeated. The scroll has seven spells written upon it:

Friends, Magic Missile, Knock, Mirror Image, Web, Slow, Mnemonic Enhancer.

She may cast them from the scroll, or can use the scroll to transcribe new spells into her spellbook.

I think I will scribe a lot of scrolls like Remove Disease and Remove Curse stuff like that so I can sure almost anything while we are in the dungeon. Sound Good?

I have the Scribe Scroll feat so I can make a lot. Anyone have any other cleric spell recommendations for me?

Communal pro evil
shield of faith
prayer
Bull's strength
magic weapon

shield of faith
prayer
Bull's strength
magic weapon

Thanks Trane - I just don't want to try to buff someone and the buff doesn't stack with whatever magical item they are wearing.

I have made the scrolls below.
Cost was 1950 gp it will take me 36 hours to scribe them so 3 days.

Scrolls:

of align weapon, bull's strength (3), dispel magic, invisibility purge, magic circle against evil (2),remove curse, remove disease, remove fear, remove paralysis (2), resist energy (2), lesser restoration (2) silence, of prayer

Bull's strength should go on me when I no longer can cast it myself, it won't stack with belt of strength.
magic weapons should go on Uldar when he is shooting his normal bow versus a target needing magic weapons.

1000 gp is too much to learn a lvl 1 spell. Guess we can pass there.

My shortbow is magical, it just deals so poor damage because I am small :P

I suggest also having something against confusion:
Calm emotions
Supres charms and compulsions

Kalizama can remove the staggered condition also with haste :)

I will make a scroll of Calm Emotions as well that will fill out the time I have on the third day.

Cost is 187.5 gp

I would like to buy a Cloak of Resistance +1 as well 1000 gp that leave me about 850 gp.

We can move faster with spells active.

I do not have the spell Haste and it is not in the list of spells that can be bought, so we are out of luck there.

I have transcribed the 7 spells on the Otyugh scroll into my spell book, and will scribe backup scrolls for several of the more frequently used spells.

I have also transcribed the 6 spells on the scrolls that Uldar allotted to me that are not already in it.

I learned the spell Protection from Evil from wizard Burne (1000gp).

I will scribe a scroll, one each for the following spells:
Protection from Evil, Mage Armor, Knock, Lightening Bolt, Flaming Sphere, and Stone Call. (750gp)

That will leave me with 3254gp.

Looks like Cananthir the elf barbarian may rejoin the group...

welcome back Carp!!

It's ok I guess. Perhaps would be useful to clean up the Character's tab list.

Welcome Carp!

Thank you!
It's good to be back.

Welcome back, Carp! Glad you came back!!!

Going to be traveling the next few days so I will not be able to post on a regular basis. Please DM PC me if you need to use my skills for checks.

Half Orc Cleric:
He wears a red robe with a gold skull emblem, but with plate mail armor underneath, and carries a shield and Warhammer as well. His gold fire amulet on a gold chain is worth 100 gp. He wears a ring set with a large violet garnet (jewelry value 700 gp), and carries 16 gp, and 7 pp in his purse.

Human Cleric:
He wears a red robe with a gold skull emblem, and masterwork splint mail underneath. His gold fire amulet on a gold chain is worth 100 gp. He carries a masterwork longsword and +1 light steel shield, and is wearing a cloak of resistance +1. In a pouch he is carrying a potion of bull’s strength, a thunderstone, and 271 gp.

Human Cleric:

He wears chain mail armor and carries a shield, and also wears a ring of protection + 1. In the pommel of his mace is a small but carefully set ruby worth 1,000 gp. He keeps 9 gp, and 21 pp in his purse.

Room 205a Anteroom
On the table are quills, an inkpot, and a roll of parchment. Uldar unlocks the chest, which holds average garments, a potion of poison, and a leather bag containing 37 gp.

Room 205b Main Chamber
One tapestry sewn with gold and silver thread is worth 2,000 gp, but the others have no worth. The ewers and cups are of pewter and small worth, and contain wine. The robe under the pillows is the garb of an important guest of the Fire Temple. The box by the fireplace is filled with billets of wood, charcoal, and kindling for the maintenance of the fire.

Hit Dice: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

hp: 1d8 ⇒ 7

HP: 1d10 ⇒ 7

Woohoo!

If I remember correctly I have the option of taking half +1.
If so, yes please.

Also, how are we deciding who takes and/or recording loot?

Uldar Level 6 briefing
----------------------
HP: 47 + 1d8 ⇒ 8 + 2 Con + 1 Favoured class = 58

BAB: +3 +1 = +4
Base Fort: +1 +1 = +2
Base Ref: +4 +1 = +5
Base Will: +1 +1 = +2

Sneak attack: +0 = 3d6
Talent: Combat trick (Deadly aim)

Skills: +9 ranks
Acrobatics +1 rank
Bluff +2 ranks
Climb +1 rank
Disable device +1 rank
Escape artist +1 rank
Perception +1 rank
Stealth +1 rank
Use magic device +1 rank

I think that's all from me, level up!

I am adding the loot to the Treasure sheet

Are we doing half HD + con for HP?

I'd like to request 'need' for the +2 composite longbow and the cloak of resistance +1

Approved?

Good to me.

Go ahead and write your name under the "Currently in" column for those items.

If someone else wants it, I am sure we can reason out of the dispute.

I have no desire for the bow. My dex is too low to make good use of it.

I'd like a cloak of resistance at some point but I'm not in a dire need of it. I don't seem to be targeted by too many spells.

Roll for your HP as normal with the hit dice of your class. Our house rule is that if the hit dice results in a 1 or 2, you can reroll for a better result. Then add your CON modifier, plus any other HP bonuses that may result from a Feat, the +1 for advancing in the same class, etc.

HP: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5
HP reroll: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10
HP=45+10=55

I would like the Thunderstone from one of the human clerics in Room 204; and from the western room - 205c - I'd like the scroll with the 3 spells on it; and from the eastern room - 205d - I'd like the bone scroll case with the Protection from Devils scroll, and the strange book Uldar found.

That sword will add a lot of damage capability to my character which right now has none.

It sounds as a very good idea Velcore :)

Is everyone ok if I take the Flametongue Lingsword?

If so story master can you give me all the info on the sword please.

Thanks

I'm fine with it. It's a nice enchantment, but I have bonuses for 2h weapons and I would never hit anything at range with my awful dex mod.

Also, Story Master I need a quick favor from you. I accidentally posted with my default alias. Could you please mark it as an NPC so it doesn't keep popping up on my campaign tabs? Thank you.
