The Carrion Crown (E7 goodness with House Rules frosting)

Not sure if the site being up and down is impacting. I'll bot Elidal in a few hrs if worse comes to worse.

One houserule I am glad I made is Charisma to channeling. It fits, and it rewards charismatic builds. It would be more evident in a 20pt build game than here but its a nice bonus none the less.

Gonna rely on my players here :) what's the point of having good players if I can't do that from time to time. Given Emmett is adjacent to the skelle can he use the ranseur as a reach weapon? Does he need to move 2 down the corridor instead? Would cover apply to either a single or two square move? I'll listen to you for the next few hrs and use your guidance when I log back

As a GM I allow my reach players to attack on the diagonals.

That's one of those perennial questions : ) Some do, some don't. I don't let reach weapons attack ANY adjacent square, diagonals included. that's why I know the haft rule ; )If he moves to the other side of Nalun, he's out of reach.

Emmett should just hit with the haft (a bludge weapon I'll point out), should take the skelly down I think, and w/ 5 step end up where he is.

I'm with Voodoo on this one. However the result WILL be the same... the skeleton will go down and Emmett will end up where he is now.

Here is the link to Elidals experience - treat it as ooc.

On return to Ravensgro and resting?

Older player level up 2 steps.

New players level up 3 steps... Everyone should be one step from 3rd.

New players? Go to obsidian portal - link is at the top of the page, navigate to house rules and check out the rules on step levelling.

That was a very bad arse encounter that potentially could have gone very wrong for you. The haunts worked well together to turn a potentially average encounter of skeletons to something else greater than the sum of its parts.

yeah, nice synergy. I do think there was some bending of the haunt mechanic there, but all's well. Not having a channeler could have been pretty awful for a party.

Haunt siphons are included in the game to manage that.

And yeah, I fumbled a call or two on the haunts mid way through - had a lot of person stuff on and wasn't on my A game but it all worked out, albeit a bit wonky.

I like the siphons- cool Ghostbusters feel :)

btw I'm throwing a particularly interesting zombie-esque mob encounter at my players in my PbP pirate game right now. mwu-ha-haarrgh!

i'm taking A and C steps. remind me again is it +5 hp for d8?

As an FYI, I'll be out of town Monday and Tuesday this week. I'll have my phone and possibly my laptop but I'm not sure how much time I'll actually have to post. Sooo, feel free to bot Elidal as needed. Once I have a little more time to actually peruse things (I'm not at home atm) I'll post which steps she'll take.

On return to Ravensgro and resting?

have we cleared to top floor? if so, home again, home again.

Average +1 hp a level...

And noooo Father Toth. The top isn't cleared yet mwhahahahaha.

That's a good idea Simeon

I want you guys talking with each other so I'll move it along in about 12 hours or so.

Did I level Nalun up correctly? I did the AB and C stuff...

Leveled Emmett: A, B, and D. Feat is Iron Will. I'm trying to weave it in, right now, as he gets closer to faith.

One question: Favored community... Should I hold, or pick Ravengro?

Hold. We will end up in carrion hill in a year or so and that was your home town. Hold back on level 3 feat until you are level 3.

Okay. I was looking forward to Iron Will (for obvious reasons)... :)

Level 3 is just around the corner

Need me to push the game along?

I made the last gameplay post, so I am kinda holding back till someone else posted.

@ Emmett, yep Iron Will seems like one of those things that we will all be looking into at some point

Did I need to go ahead and do the step leveling now or wait until we actually get back to town and rest?

Re: feats - One thing that I think I might enjoy about this E6/7 setup is that once we hit the level cap, it gives the chance to pick up feats that would be handy but don't typically get taken in most games (in my experience) like Iron Will or Great Fortitude and such. Of course the limitations on feat sources narrows things down a bit but there should still be plenty to choose from.

I think others have done it now so go ahead.

I'll update the loot thread as I think it's behind - remember you still have an unidentifed wand from the prison chapel. I think that was the last time - that and the stuff you traded to Jominda - that I updated loot that wasn't handed out already to you already.

I am sure that the undead bane bolt was used by Jaru against the poltigiest. Does anyone want to rejigger the list so the right ppl have the right stuff ?

I did. We still have the one Lament had though. I could use that maybe. I believe Emmett and I have the best ranged attack numbers.

I guess give the rest of Lament's stuff to Nalun and Nighteyes' stuff to Emmett. We do need to update the list though.

I have spellcraft now so whenever we have the time after the level up-

ID wand- 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25

Lsr restoration 12 charges

I think I got all of Elidal's step leveling done and her profile updated correctly; went with A & B this time around.

This probably won't be that unusual considering that Thursday is a holiday for the US folks, but I wanted to post that my posting may be a little sluggish this week due to an odd work schedule. Night shift tonight and tomorrow night, Thanksgiving meal at noon on Thursday with my in-laws and then back up at 3 am on Friday to come back to work. Oy...

Yeah - no worries.

I think I'll just wait for posts to come it until they do or next Monday which ever comes first.

Okies...

Need you all to check this Loot Link.

If you used any of the items let me know. If there is something I missed find the post and let me know.

The IOU from Jominda is on the list and those Whispering tyrant coins may be worth more than their face value.

Elidal is still carrying all of the items listed for her and I actually had forgotten that she even had them. Oops.

That's good then right?

Update your sheets everyone and post when you have

Updated my consumable log with the items I am carrying.

as mentioned above, I should retain the second undead bane bolt as I have the better attack bonus and a reroll yet. worked well last time.

Nalun should take the wand of healing though. I have plenty of back up for that.

art obects (painting, medals, etc.) should just stay at the Kendra's house. we could sell those at the silk purse, I think.

Hey, just wanted to say that I hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving, if you celebrate it. If not, I hope you had a good day! If the holiday season just isn't your thing for whatever reason, then hang in there - it'll be over before you know it :)

How many charges does the wand posses? I'll add it to my consumables sheet.

Its on the sheet. 15 for CLW wand.

Jaru take the 2nd bolt of undead slaying.

Loot is on my sheet.

GM, you've put my name beside the siphons. Shouldn't it be Simeon's?

Didn't he give them to you ?

I gave him one spent and one unspent siphon

Can you update the page?

Thanks! I've updated my sheet, but I don't have access to the Loot Sheet.

You can't edit？

I tried earlier and couldn't edit the file either.

Okay. File should be editable. Give it a try, and lay out who has what.

I included the coins and gem you found on the body of the long dead gnome.

Unless I miss my mark you've used 3 or 4 of the siphons. My count (off memory because I am not reading 20 pages of notes) is 4.

One downstairs when you started (vs a cold spot I think), one for something I cant remember, one for the big encounter on the 2nd floor and one more just now vs the animated axe.

Happy to be corrected.

S@@~ hit the fan later today. Apologies - will post when I get a min but prepare yourselves for something big
