Question. Should we level based on where the book expects us to, or shall I hand out experience? entirely your choice.
I'm a fan of leveling where the book expects it, since that way it's a lot less micromanagement.
I second that. Too many times in past games we'd end a session 40 XP away from leveling.
Pretty sure this is Canon, but in any case my ruling:
LONG REST is a period of at least 8 hours of leisure or sleep. This time can be filled with conversation or relaxing pastimes, but no training, crafting, or business. All daily abilities can be refreshed except those that specifically rely on a time of day (GM discretion).
Seem fair? Silly to have to waste a whole day or pretend that your characters can just fall asleep at noon because you're out of spells.
Seems good by me. It's worth asking if Oracles are at a specific time of day or if they're 8 hours of rest+15 minutes like sorcerers are, tho.
I like that ruling a lot. Since I feel that as long as you are resting and not focusing your powers should naturally recharge or something. Like Alexis stuffing her face and being social wouldn't hurt nothing but if she tried to scribe a scroll that would require focus and not allow her properly rest her mind. This makes a lot of logical sense to me. Also allows more fluid role play than just "Rest time everybody falls over for 8 hours." I am a fluff bunny I like me some good ol RP in my RPG lol.
As of yet oracles are no different. Only very powerful things have 24 he limits, and I'll let you know if I see one.
That's very good to know, then.
(Also I filled that final Spell Known slot with Sanctuary to fit Septima's role of "squishy cleric that needs to be kept away from fights")
I did think of an exception, though I don't think it applies to any of you yet, spells that last for a day or more use up a spell slot for an entire day. That way you can't repeatedly take long rests and fill a castle with three death runes a day or something like that.
Oh yeah that's fair lol, I am perfectly okay with balancing such things for some of the more ridiculous spells in the game. Also why for balance In NOT going to attempt to argue for the spell Suffecation. Fricking spells let's you begin choking something on a failure but if they succed on their fort they still become stunned. It's brutal and honestly something I feel is too broken as it is.
For reference here is a link to the spell proper

Staggered, not stunned.
It's not completely broken absurd, just a little bit broken absurd.
It seemed worse than it actually because I suck at rolling, so too many things just fell over and suffocated.
I dunno play the game of Keep the fighting guy from being able to swing and move while the rest of the part pumble them was pretty useful.
You guys can have all the RP time you want during this rest. I'll get replies to Mira and Amara specifically tomorrow, and Gremlin is still around.
I guess now is as good a time as any to warn you: I usually don't mind you looking at stuff we've already done so long as you don't mind mild spoilers of future books. HOWEVER, looking into the Fair Fortune Livery AT ALL will spoil a bit that I'd like to play up towards the end of the book. Please don't look at the book until we move on to the second one from here, k?
Don't worry. I personally got no reason to look back lol.
Foreknowledge changes character behavior, and I'm all about legitimate reactions to stuff. You've no worries about me reading ahead.
Oh god, are we getting epona?
I hope we're getting epona.
But yeah, I will avoid trying to find a pdf to look.
Dunno what the pendants are worth,but here's the loot list so far:
9 light maces
6 manacles
7 bronze thrune pendant
24 gp in assorted coins
A man offers to make a suspicious deal. what do you do!?
A: Accept
B: Decline
C: Attack!
D: Put it in.
+5 points for the Excel Saga reference. XD
Just for you :3
I like this mental Image or this thrune Guy with Amara literally is dancing around at this point with his coin in Amaras face and she is just ignoring him agressivly.

Your daily reminder that I play a Good Person who is 100% Innocent and Pure.
Feel free to have Mira get hit by random rocks if it makes you feel better lol, they don't even have to kill her.
Well, I start 3rd shift tonight, so my posting habits may change fairly significantly. I'll be trying to sleep from 8am to 4 ish eastern, so posts during the day won't be as consistent as they were.
Thanks for the heads up. I'll be plugging along as best I can as well.
I'm the lonely one over here on the West Coast, so my timing is a bit wonky compared to the rest of you anyway.
Good luck with your new job! ^_^
Okay so like.......I know Amara and I have a bunch of characters so like how many do you want. I know Mira kinda just summarized it but with things like this I.....kinda love going into detail but don't wanna fill up the entire board. So like maybe 6 or so? Or more? Or less?
...I'm just laughing because Mira would hit on far too many of her 'past lives' to be considered sane.
I guess I'll just try to stick to the more interesting characters I have run....abd jewels.
(Alexis says no one wanted to hear about her past lives as if we don't love them. :P)
I'm not sure how Septima would feel about how many of her past lives are gay men. Or, in some cases, planty-elf-people.
I would never have expected the Mognificent Kupo Khan to ever be relevant to anything. XD
...I forgot the panda.
I FORGOT THE PANDA.
eh, it's okay, Mira wouldn't have paid much attention to the panda in a deep crow suit.
Oh geez Jake was a panda wasn't he?
Omg I'm so glad you guys ran with it I've been looking forward to the stained glass room for a while now. Don't worry, hopefully we'll be back here, so if you think of things to add you can notice them another time. I'll move us along after supper :)
Wow, Yeah also if you feel I should keep it shorter just let me know. I get a bit over excited a d just go, works well when I GM but can be annoying to the GM orz.
All I know is 'grab sword, give up magic.'
And then just mash X forever.
Somewhere in this dream dimension sits a duck. His room is not stained glass, however. It's lined with padding that he's decorated with sharpies.
I knew it!
Don't feel like you have to create a massive interaction or perfect post. I like to give weird opportunities for creativity in these things. They won't all be this weird, and I fully expect some prompts don't jive with you. Feel free to have a one sentence reaction if you're not feeling it or a nice long post if you are. (No, Alexis, I don't mind :))
I will always reward you for indulging me in these screwy side quests.
To be honest, writing that was more fun than I initially expected.
(Now we all lie in wait for Alexis to post a reference to Persona.)
Jokes on you! It isn't a shadow but literally my sassy ass....do yeah no person a reference.....unless suddenly we do this in an elevator or limo.
Did anyone else notice that paizo stopped giving notifications for a little while there? Threw me off a little
