Thirst - A Ravenloft PbP

Game Master Celestial Healer

Set in the land of Ravenloft, a band of intrepid heroes searches for a way home, but their fate may be inextricably tied to a vain, power-hungry madman. Uses the Pathfinder ruleset.

You would have had one turn where you were bleeding.


Do you use fatigue rules for characters running on fewer than 8 hours of rest?

Silver Crusade

I suppose I would, but you were attacked only 1 hour into your rest. Assuming you can continue uninterrupted, 8 hours of rest is still very much possible.


I was wondering more about a double watch to sub for Nat.

Okay, doing some quick research.

I like this from AP 44:

Quote:
Characters who do not get a full night’s sleep may suffer the effects of fatigue. If a PC does not get at least 6 hours of sleep, she must make a DC 15 Fortitude save or be fatigued and take a –1 penalty on all other checks and saving throws against sleep effects. A second night without sleep requires another DC 15 Fortitude save. A failed save results in the character becoming exhausted and the penalties increasing to –2. A third failed save on the next night increases the penalties to –3.

That is what is needed to avoid fatigue.

To regain HP or be able to prepare arcane spells, you need 8 hours, though.

Tiffana is your only arcane caster, and she only cast one 1st level spell in that fight. If she wants that spell slot back, she will need a full 8 hours. The rest of you can get by on as little as 6, although you won't regain HP for a full night's rest. Any less than 6 and you need to roll a save vs fatigue.


I'm not sure the scroll is gone.

If she meets all three requirements but her own caster level is lower than the scroll spell's caster level, then she has to make a caster level check (DC = scroll's caster level + 1) to cast the spell successfully.

So the caster level failed and spell was not cast.

PRD wrote:


The writing for an activated spell disappears from the scroll as the spell is cast.

So the writing should still be there?

I don't think that applies. I meet the caster level of the spell. But the text for remove disease says my caster level check needs to exceed the disease dc. So I think the spell was cast, but simply failed. It was worth a try.


Ah, gotcha! Is that how scrolls work, though?

To be fair, Nat isn't all that badly impaired at this point. You just want to get this looked at before the situation turns ghoulish :)


Human

Angalia is just seeing the worst, since that's what the party have been getting since they arrived.


Leandro doesn't want to speak for the party, since he doesn't know the afflicted guy very well, nor does he know much about the guy they are following, so he is letting others ask the questions.


Human

Angalia just went ahead and probably put her foot in it.

I'm really enjoying describing this hospital. It feels more "Ravenloft" to me than the other settings you've been in.

Hi Celestial Healer. This may seem a little cheeky, it does to me, but if ever you need another player I would love to be considered.

Frankly any game with Ravenloft in its title gets my interest. However I realise that I am an outsider to this and that you have a solid crew of players. So this is not something I expect to bear fruit.

But of the four games I have joined in the last six months, two are dying or stuttering along and I am looking for a consistency and decent players I can bounce off. Oh, and Rev Rosey is an added benefit since we have gamed together before and she provided me with a great sloe jam recipe.

Cheers and apologies for stepping out of lurker mode if this offends.

Silver Crusade

Male Celestial Cleric of Myself 10/Radiant Servant of Me 10

I'm going to give it some thought. I like your enthusiasm!


Human

If it's any help, I'd warmly recommend French Wolf :)

The Exchange

Thank you Rev. How you doin'? Family good? My two kids are old enough now to afford me a few spare moments these days.

By the way, take your time CH. I'm not going anywhere and nor is your game.

Cheers


Human

Family fine, but son scarily just started A levels. Been a bit pushed this year one way and another, but it all seems to be settling down a bit.

The Exchange

Wow, that makes me feel older. A bit like my having to check a higher age category box on most forms.

Speaking of pushed, my wife has just been told that her company is in serious financial trouble and has about three months to turn it around. Her CV is getting a workout.

Right I'll stop interrupting and let you guys get back to your game.

Cheers

I think there's room for an addition. I am going to try to work you in before the PCs enter the East Wing, as it will be tough to introduce a PC while the party is wandering through a haunted abandoned asylum wing.

I am private messaging you.

Welcome to the game French Wolf!

The Exchange

Thanks Tordek. I am building a nice little warrior. More when we meet but I'm excited playing a class I rarely touch.

Off to the the garage to dig into old books and find my old Ravenloft stuff.

Cheers


Rev got in touch with me, and she asked that I let all her games know she is still struggling with computer woes. Rather than keep everyone waiting each time, she's declaring a PBP hiatus until Oct 16.


I don't know why I never saw the new posts here, but belated welcome, French Wolf. PotNP's post generated a 'new post' flag, but I missed all the rest and wondered why the heck this French Wolf guy was dotting the gameplay thread. *eye roll* Anyway, welcome!

Poor Rev. What will we do with her situation? :(

Silver Crusade

Male Celestial Cleric of Myself 10/Radiant Servant of Me 10

Thanks, Pat! I know Rev has been having some connection difficulties. I'll just roll for her.

Don't thank me; thank H.P. Lovecraft.

Quote:

Witnesses said it had long hair and the shape of a rat, but that its sharp-toothed, bearded face was evilly human while its paws were like tiny human hands. It took messages betwixt old Keziah and the devil, and was nursed on the witch's blood, which it sucked like a vampire. Its voice was a kind of loathsome titter, and it could speak all languages.

I am facing a busy couple of weeks day and night so posting may be a little terse or spotty. Please NPC Sir G if my man flu gets worse too!

And thank you Treppa. Let's hope Rev is back this week.

Cheers

I am :)

Welcome back Rev!

Update coming soon... Sorry about the delays!

The Exchange

Sorry for not posting sooner. My wife is away for a few days having a break (she has just finished a half marathon in Birmingham). Leaves me with the little darlings. Also I have just realised that I forgot to spend some cash. I'll do it tonight.

Cheers

Silver Crusade

Male Celestial Cleric of Myself 10/Radiant Servant of Me 10

No problem!

The Exchange

On holiday for the next week or so. Should be back in action next Wednesday. Feel free to NPC my character until then.

Cheers


Our GM may be without power for the week - ohnoes!

Silver Crusade

Male Celestial Cleric of Myself 10/Radiant Servant of Me 10

Here's hoping that doesn't come to pass!


I certainly hope not. What happens to your work? Will they shut down if the city is not running public transportation and there are orders to stay indoors? Or will they try to get people to live at work for a few days?

Silver Crusade

Male Celestial Cleric of Myself 10/Radiant Servant of Me 10

My work is in the suburbs, not the city. They don't need transportation to run. It is mostly likely going to be open.


Outstanding! You can post from there. :P


Human

Eesh. Take care. It doesn't sound much fun at all.

Silver Crusade

Male Celestial Cleric of Myself 10/Radiant Servant of Me 10

It's looking more likely that my office will be closed, which is remarkable. Financial services companies do not like to close.

Silver Crusade

Male Celestial Cleric of Myself 10/Radiant Servant of Me 10

As long as I have power, I seem to be updating the thread faster than ever!

Mostly because I have nothing else to do while I weather a hurricane in my 1 bedroom apartment...


I received word from Moorluck. He will be taking a hiatus. I will run Tiffana through your current exploration, but then we will have her stay behind.

Is anyone interested in running her during combat?

Shadow Lodge

My killer work schedule seems to be lightening finally, as the new people I hired get up to speed. I can run Tiffana.

I am back but my broadband may need an Engineer. It is very iffy. Will post later if I can. Cheers

Silver Crusade

Male Celestial Cleric of Myself 10/Radiant Servant of Me 10

I'm a little bit curious... What do all of you think is going on in this place? I get the feeling that all of your characters have been holding their tongues on any suspicions they might have.

Shadow Lodge

Male Husband/10 Dad/10 Gamer/5 RPGer/2

Up to now, I thought we were trying to save the sister. Now after hearing the female voice directing things I suspect the sisters have restarted the experiments.

Edit: Interesting, I typed this response before reading your last game post. You'd think after a this much time in Ravenloft - I wouldn't still be so naive.


Well, holy crap. That was not what I expected. Were-rats, sure. But the rest? NO.

The Exchange

I'd say that Andrzej is just trying to find his feet. The others are the pros.

cheers

And you thought it was just a dire rat...
