The Worldwound Incursion (Inactive)

Game Master DireMerc

The wardstone of Kenabres has been broken and the demons of the worlwound are loose! How will this crisis be contained?

Houserules:

Casting: When casting a spell defensivly if you fail you do not automaticly lose the spell, rather you provoke an attack as you normally would for not casting defensive. If you are hit you must make a concentration check dc 10+damage taken if you fail this check you lose the spell.

Rolls:
Many rolls will be handled by the GM in secret.(don't worry, I don't fudge.)
Any result that can influence the character behavior will not be rolled open.
Rolls that will be handled by the GM:
Perception
Sense Motive.

if you make the check I will send you a pm or make a post and put it in a spoiler depending on the situation.

Sometimes I will roll Initiative others I will ask you to roll depending on the situation. In some situation (rarely) I will bypass init entirely and have you all go first and enemies second or have enemies go first and you all go after.

Combat rules:
I'm a fair GM, I dont roll combat in secret, I don't change results, I don't ignore bad calls from the characters.
Sometimes, character dies, but I'm not a player killer, if I think that an encounter will be easy handled, when it should be more challenging, I will make it a more challenging, if the party it's not prepared to face something, I will drop hints, if they insist... well killing one or two players never made me lack sleep...

Actions:
I'm a GM that do not punish the character for trying something new or cool, or even strange. Visual appealing actions are encouraged, the dc will of course depend on what are you trying, but you can try! If what you want to do is wicked cool, I can even bend the game mechanics to allow it! The most importat part is: You are villains. Villains are smart, resourceful and have style! Have you ever seen a memorable villain that could just swing his sword and do nothing more?

Posting Rate
If it could be done, I expect 1/day posting, if you can post more, it will really good.
During weekend, this rule does not apply. If you are able to post, great! But dont stress over this, everyone need some time to rest (In my case, I need time to play and DM :D on my tabletop games).

Level up
Aside from character creation, when you level up, if you want something not from core rulebook, you'll need to search it inside the game. basicly what you need to do is just show in game your character is searching for that knowledge. This rule is not meant to prohibit anything, I just don't like something like this: "Character always as a full caster, never picked up a sword in his entire life, and then he gain a new level and says: Master, I'll level up as a fighter now..."

Just for reference, whenever we're in combat, I'll generally be the last person to post each round. After all, I'm the party healbot. :-)

Okay... now I get why spellcasters need to many wands! First time I've really actually got to play a wizard at lower levels. I need to pick myself up a nice little wand of magic missile...

This is a heads-up to all the games I'm in right now. My wife and I are in the process of moving, and the official day is July 28th. Due to all the packing/traveling/getting setup craziness, my posting will be slow to nonexistent for a little bit. Feel free to bot me as needed.


Loot Tracker Human 4 Ranger | HP 38/38 | AC 18 | T 14 | FF 14 | CMD 21 | Fort +6 | Ref +8 | Will +4 | Init +4 | Perc +10

Alright so this is the distribution of loot from this fight so far:

Varn - Wand of Magic Missile
Raven - Studded Leather +1
Orlando - Potions of Barkskin and Invisbility

For the Ring of Protection, I suggest that the interested parties roll off (highest of d100) to see who takes it. So far that's Varn and Orlando.

We'll save the Alchemy Kit, MW Dagger, and Silver Dagger for sale. Leaves:

2 CLW
1 CMW
1 Spider Climb
1 unknown potino
1 Ranseur

I suggest Aeren take the CMW potion as the front liner. Tessai and Orlando take the CLW potions.

I already have a spider climb potion, but will add another if no one else claims.

If Aeren or Tessai want the Ranseur, we will keep otherwise sell.

Any problems with this plan?


M Human Warpriest (Arsenal Chaplain) of Iomedae 2| HP 19 | AC 18 | T 14 | FF 14| CMD 18 | Fort +5 | Ref +4 | Will +5 | Init +5 | Perc +2

Tessai has Radiance and due to the nature of Fighter feats, Aeron will almost never use anything other than a earthbreaker.

In case it hasn't been done yet, it would be good for everyone to hold onto a healing potion in case I go down at some point. As we continue to level, I'll gradually become a massive damage sponge and will often have low HP for a round or two during combat. I should be able to keep it balanced, but there's always the possibility of a lucky crit.

I'll take a Cure Light potion and a Spider Climb potion as well.

Dice for the ring?
1d100 ⇒ 76

I think everyone's got at least a CLW potion. The big hitters should start upgrading to CMW as we get them. Adalric, cry out if you want some of this loot etc. I got Orlando's potions assigned to him as well.


M Human Warpriest (Arsenal Chaplain) of Iomedae 2| HP 19 | AC 18 | T 14 | FF 14| CMD 18 | Fort +5 | Ref +4 | Will +5 | Init +5 | Perc +2

Meh, I can't actually think of a time in combat where Aeron would be better off drinking a potion over dispensing a hammer to the face.

Sounds like a plan to me!

Also... Ring: 1d100 ⇒ 20


Slow posting - working both Saturday and Sunday.

I'm cool with the loot distribution. Raven, as for the weapons, I am sticking with Radiance ;)


HP: 13/13 | MP 14/22 | Condition: 12 | Status Effects: x | Fumble Points: x Farmer 1

@Aeron: the potion isn't for drinking. It's for feeding me if I pass out. ;-)

Re: loot distribution - I haven't seen anything I'm particularly interested in, so it's cool. :-)

@Everyone: This is going out to all my campaigns. As most of you know, I'm preparing to move to the Orlando/Winter Park area. Today is the fun "pack up all nonessential items because the UHaul comes this afternoon" day. Once I end this post, I'll have no computer access until I get Wifi hooked up at the new place - hopefully only a couple days, but we'll see. Bot me as needed; I'll be back soon. :-)


Loot Tracker Human 4 Ranger | HP 38/38 | AC 18 | T 14 | FF 14 | CMD 21 | Fort +6 | Ref +8 | Will +4 | Init +4 | Perc +10

looks like Orlando landed the ring as well. I will put the rest of the items on the "sell at next opportunity" list. Thanks

Adalric - having just moved (albeit locally) on Friday, I feel your pain. My cable/internet doesn't get hooked up until Thursday, and I am having the DT's already using just my phone's hotspot.

Hope all goes well for you on the move.


Guys, I want to apologize for a crappy quality and rate of posting these last days - going into my 8th straight day of work today... Still will try and post later on.


Loot Tracker Human 4 Ranger | HP 38/38 | AC 18 | T 14 | FF 14 | CMD 21 | Fort +6 | Ref +8 | Will +4 | Init +4 | Perc +10

Just when I thought the loot was sorted out, Merc dumps a pile more on us. This time cry out if you want it. The name beside is anyone who has made a claim so far.For items claimed by multiples, rolling D100 seems to be a fair resolution (since Thumb wrestling is out...). Unclaimed items will be taken and then sold at first opportunity.

Here is the list:

1) 3 MW CI longswords - Varn
2) 2 MW CI shortswords
3) 2 heavy crossbows
4) composite longbow (+2 draw) - Varn
5) MW CI heavy mace
6) 2 CI longspears - Varn
7) 50 CI crossbow bolts
8) 100 CI arrows - 25 each for Varn and Raven
9) +1 CI longsword - Varn
10) 5 +1 holy arrows - Raven
11) arrow of evil outsider slaying - Raven
12) 2 MW chainmail
13) +1 breastplate - Aldaric
14) MW steel shield - Aldaric
15) +1 blinding shield


HP: 13/13 | MP 14/22 | Condition: 12 | Status Effects: x | Fumble Points: x Farmer 1

I'd actually wanted the blinding shield if possible. :-)

My bad, I knew that, just marked the wrong one. Consider it updated. We'll see who else chimes in, if anyone. Tessai? Aeren? Most of these items would be up your alleys. Orlando, any choices?


Male Human Bard1/Swash(Insp Blade)9/Myth Trick 3 AC27(31) (T21F17) CMD33 | HP97/97 | Saves F7R21W9 | Perc +7 | Init:+12 | Panache: 4/4 | MythPower: 8/9 | Bard Perf: 7/7 | Status: OK

Orlando will set his Light crossbow and bolts aside to pick up a heavy crossbow and twenty cold iron bolts.
He will also pick up a Masterwork Cold Iron Shortsword.


Loot Tracker Human 4 Ranger | HP 38/38 | AC 18 | T 14 | FF 14 | CMD 21 | Fort +6 | Ref +8 | Will +4 | Init +4 | Perc +10

Restated list:

1) 3 MW CI longswords - Varn
2) 2 MW CI shortswords - Orlando
3) 2 heavy crossbows - Orlando
4) composite longbow (+2 draw) - Varn
5) MW CI heavy mace
6) 2 CI longspears - Varn & Aldaric
7) 50 CI crossbow bolts - Orlando (20)
8) 100 CI arrows - 25 each for Varn and Raven
9) +1 CI longsword - Varn
10) 5 +1 holy arrows - Raven
11) arrow of evil outsider slaying - Raven
12) 2 MW chainmail
13) +1 breastplate - Aldaric
14) MW steel shield
15) +1 blinding shield - Aldaric


HP: 13/13 | MP 14/22 | Condition: 12 | Status Effects: x | Fumble Points: x Farmer 1

I'll grab the other longspear if nobody else wants it.


Tessai has been 2-handing Radiance, so I guess will stick with that MO - I can most likely use the +1 Breastplate. Will do the math once I get home.

The MW Steel is probably useful as backup.

Sorry...I wont do it again!


From my end, feel free to do t at every possible chance DireMerc :D

I checked and the Breastplate +1 means a net +1 to my AC so... Don't think it is that worth it for me - all yours Adalric ;)

Added also the CLW potion to my gear. I don't think I am interested in anything else.


Loot Tracker Human 4 Ranger | HP 38/38 | AC 18 | T 14 | FF 14 | CMD 21 | Fort +6 | Ref +8 | Will +4 | Init +4 | Perc +10

Just need to hear if Aeren wants any gear from the armory, then we can allocate/pile up for sale.


M Human Warpriest (Arsenal Chaplain) of Iomedae 2| HP 19 | AC 18 | T 14 | FF 14| CMD 18 | Fort +5 | Ref +4 | Will +5 | Init +5 | Perc +2

Nope. None of that stuff really helps.


Good enough. We will take as posted above for our own use, and donate the rest to Irabeth's cause. We do want a receipt however, to use as an income tax deduction.

None of the goods will be added to the Loot Tracker, except those assigned to individuals.


Male Elf Wizard 6/ Riftwarden 4/Archmage 3 | HP 77/77 | AC 15(22) | T 14 | FF 11(14) | CMD 20 | Fort +10 | Ref +11 | Will +13 | Init +7 | Perc +14 | RW - 12/13 | MP 10/11 | PC 10/10

Okay, Varn will take the +1 cold iron longsword, the Comp longbow, and 25 CI arrows. I'll pass on the rest of the gear since we are going to donate it to the good cause! We can also give them Varn's current longbow, or sell it. Whatever you guys want to do.

Also, now that Varn has a magical longsword he will get rid of the morningstar. Who would like to claim it?


HP: 13/13 | MP 14/22 | Condition: 12 | Status Effects: x | Fumble Points: x Farmer 1

@Tessai: I have a +1 breastplate already that I'd be happy to give you. I just wanted the special Iomedae armor for flavor purposes.

@Everyone: After many complications, it looks like I'll be able to move in tomorrow. Bear with me for a couple more days. :-)


Male Human Bard1/Swash(Insp Blade)9/Myth Trick 3 AC27(31) (T21F17) CMD33 | HP97/97 | Saves F7R21W9 | Perc +7 | Init:+12 | Panache: 4/4 | MythPower: 8/9 | Bard Perf: 7/7 | Status: OK

Going camping, back 8 Aug. Bot me as necessary.


Be sure to check the sky on the nigh of august 8th for that lunar eclipse.


M Human Warpriest (Arsenal Chaplain) of Iomedae 2| HP 19 | AC 18 | T 14 | FF 14| CMD 18 | Fort +5 | Ref +4 | Will +5 | Init +5 | Perc +2

Either Aeron or Tesasi should go out to face the demon while the other helps Orlando mop up the cultists. Lady's choice.


Loot Tracker Human 4 Ranger | HP 38/38 | AC 18 | T 14 | FF 14 | CMD 21 | Fort +6 | Ref +8 | Will +4 | Init +4 | Perc +10

Anyone have Know Arcana to give some IC knowledge of this thing? For example, would Holy Arrows be effective against it, or the Evil Outsider slaying arrow?


Male Elf Wizard 6/ Riftwarden 4/Archmage 3 | HP 77/77 | AC 15(22) | T 14 | FF 11(14) | CMD 20 | Fort +10 | Ref +11 | Will +13 | Init +7 | Perc +14 | RW - 12/13 | MP 10/11 | PC 10/10

Varn does, I will get a post in shortly; I hate to take a shower and get my little man ready to head over to grandma's for the day. Wife and I both work tonight, so after I shower I'll get a post in!


HP: 13/13 | MP 14/22 | Condition: 12 | Status Effects: x | Fumble Points: x Farmer 1

I HAVE INTERNET AGAIN!!! It'll take me a while to catch up on all my campaigns, but I'll resume meaningful gameplay posts soon. Right now, I'll make a quick check to see if anyone needs immediate healing. :-)

Welcome back, Adalric~!


Hello people,

Wanted to let you know I am going on a few days vacations with my family this Sunday, and will only be back on next Friday.

I am supposed to have wifi coverage, and will most likely be able to check the boards, but my posting will surely be spotty, if any.

Feel free to bot me as needed to keep the game moving ;)


In other news I became an uncle this weekend.


Male Elf Wizard 6/ Riftwarden 4/Archmage 3 | HP 77/77 | AC 15(22) | T 14 | FF 11(14) | CMD 20 | Fort +10 | Ref +11 | Will +13 | Init +7 | Perc +14 | RW - 12/13 | MP 10/11 | PC 10/10

Congratulations, Merc! Hopefully the baby is happy and healthy. Boy or girl?


A boy named Mikeal.

My sister had a small complication and they had to do a c-section. However both the mother and baby are doing fine.


M Human Warpriest (Arsenal Chaplain) of Iomedae 2| HP 19 | AC 18 | T 14 | FF 14| CMD 18 | Fort +5 | Ref +4 | Will +5 | Init +5 | Perc +2

Very exciting! Glad to hear mom and baby are doing well.


Loot Tracker Human 4 Ranger | HP 38/38 | AC 18 | T 14 | FF 14 | CMD 21 | Fort +6 | Ref +8 | Will +4 | Init +4 | Perc +10

Congrats Merc and have a nice trip Tessai


Please make a note in your post when you heal 5 from the lifelink. Just so I can keep track a little better.

Basicly when you take 5 or more damage you can heal that much and it's transferred to Alderic. I just want to make sure that Alderic is taking the damage each time.


Male Elf Wizard 6/ Riftwarden 4/Archmage 3 | HP 77/77 | AC 15(22) | T 14 | FF 11(14) | CMD 20 | Fort +10 | Ref +11 | Will +13 | Init +7 | Perc +14 | RW - 12/13 | MP 10/11 | PC 10/10

Hey Merc, question about Resist Energy. Could one have multiple castings of Resist Energy of varying energy types? Or would a second casting override the first casting?

For example... Varn just used Terendelev's Scale to cast resist energy (electricity). Could he use another charge to also protect himself from cold energy? So in theory he would have Cold & Electricity Resistance 30. I checked the Messageboards, but didn't really find a definitive answer, mostly just opinions.


Yes you can cast it more than once to gain resistance to multiple elements.


Male Elf Wizard 6/ Riftwarden 4/Archmage 3 | HP 77/77 | AC 15(22) | T 14 | FF 11(14) | CMD 20 | Fort +10 | Ref +11 | Will +13 | Init +7 | Perc +14 | RW - 12/13 | MP 10/11 | PC 10/10

Excellent! Varn will be double stacking some energy resistance for the upcoming fight me thinks... Not looking forward to getting squished by energy damage. (Of course, knowing my luck... it'll be all for naught! lol)


Male Elf Wizard 6/ Riftwarden 4/Archmage 3 | HP 77/77 | AC 15(22) | T 14 | FF 11(14) | CMD 20 | Fort +10 | Ref +11 | Will +13 | Init +7 | Perc +14 | RW - 12/13 | MP 10/11 | PC 10/10

Hey guys, just found out my wife wants to go away on our vacation that starts tomorrow... So I have no idea what my posting will be like yet. I will try to let you all know as soon as I know. I will also try to keep up as best I can! Sorry on the short notice... I just found out this morning myself... Wives...


Not much time I will put up a map tomorrow. He is blocking the top of the stairs, Aeron is at the front and can 5 step up to attack him. Anyone else would need to provoke and attack to move up. Orlando can move into a flank.


M Human Warpriest (Arsenal Chaplain) of Iomedae 2| HP 19 | AC 18 | T 14 | FF 14| CMD 18 | Fort +5 | Ref +4 | Will +5 | Init +5 | Perc +2

ouch.

So with Orlando in the way, everyone should just fall back?


How wide are the stairs? 5' ?


5' yes. You can go up and around the minotaur but because of his reach the first person will provoke and attack.
