Did some research on King Bogud and the Mauritanians... This little tomb crawl should be fun! A little Raiders of the Lost Ark style adventuring...


M Human unchained monk 8/paladin 6

@Wulfgar: I looked your character sheet over, looks good! The healing ability should be a big asset to the group.


M Human unchained monk 8/paladin 6

BTW, everyone at both tables is 2nd level now... Doing my best to keep both tables even XP-wise so you are all the same level when the two tables eventually combine into one... That's way ahead of us now, but thought I'd keep you updated... They are busy fighting ghasts in the Roman Catacombs and trying to unlock the deeper levels by solving a dungeon puzzle lol... Good times!


So, in game:

Has everyone purchased their bullwhips and fedora's?

Lol


interesting read on King Bogud so were looking at roman era loot...

Sorry, your teaching a history lesson and Wulfgar's only concerned about the loot :-(

Yeah, now you got me looking for some Fancy Roman armor

Basic buys for Volreg:

2 sunrods - 4 gold
2 potions of cure light wounds - 100 gold
Flint and steel 1 gold.

I think that'll be it for Volreg, putting the rest of his share into getting a cart and animals for our new venture in tomb rai.... Archaeology!

Is a cart going across the desert? I'm assuming horses or camels.

I was also wondering if we should sail out of Anfa (Casablanca) to Azemmour or El Jadida. There we present ourselves as the entourage. Then sail to Safi and purchase the animals to 'head inland' to Marrakesh to head to parts beyond (or so the story goes)

That way there is less chance when were in Marrakesh to tie us to anyone who saw us in Anfa.

Quick advice: should I get grease, or silent image as a new 1st level spell? Grease is handy, targets reflex (which I haven't got a spell for yet), but silent image is super handy. What do y'all think?

Also, for loot I took one CLW and the 147 gp and 527 sp we each got, anything else I'm missing?

Imagine the hasty grave robber’s terror as he starts to slide inexorably down the chute into whatever trap awaits in the darkness below...


Back in the day I played in a AD&D game (I don't remember the name of the Mod.) where the hall floor was a teeter-totter and once the party walked past the fulcrum the floor tipped into a very deep pit... TPK...

Classic 2e :)


So having had a bad experience with halls and such before, and having seen 'raiders of the lost ark;' is there a large stone ball above the lintel that's rigged to roll down the hall?

Seriously, my first GM stole the crypt from the beginning of 'Raiders' and put it in the beginning of a homebrew. I had not seen the movie yet, so when I did I was like "Hey, I've been here" My date did not understand.

Cue Altin's joke about big stone balls.


I'm sorry, I didn't hear you, I had my ear buds in, did you say something about big balls?

Just so long as Altin doesn't try and change the situation were good...

Alright, where's the golden idol, I got my bag of sand right here...


Ok, due to work I'm three hours past bed time, I'm ok if Wulfgar goes first, but are we waiting for lord P to report? If we have to move in the next six hours send Wulfgar, but he's taking 20 on perception, if we get in combat he will rage and use the sword, if there happen to be undead, and more than one, he will channel...


M Human unchained monk 8/paladin 6

Roger


M Human unchained monk 8/paladin 6

I assume everyone is going down the chute... or does someone stay topside and guard the rope?


Male CG Human (Romani) Archaeologist 5 | HP 45/45 | AC 16 T 13 FF 14 | CMB +5, CMD 18 | F: +3, R: +8, W: +4 | Init: +3 | Perc: +9 | Speed 30ft | Luck rounds: 6/8 | Spell slots: 5/5, 2/3

No way Altin's staying behind! He's keen to go first, but I'm happy for others to lead if they want.


M Human unchained monk 8/paladin 6

So: Wulfgar, then Altin, then Sulayman, then Volreg, then Mwikali, and finally Giovanna? Lord P flying about?


M Human unchained monk 8/paladin 6

Weeeee!! Muahahahaha!!

Well your all on your own now. Lord P is going to try fix the rope.


M Human unchained monk 8/paladin 6

Each PC now has 1,718 XP after dealing with the chute trap...

Haven't read the thread yet, but I'm ok if anyone ever want to go before Wulfgar...

See, it's reasons for posts like this that Wulfgar said 'take 20' on perception checks. It's ok if we take our time, we brought cookies...

@ Lord Perpireen McGibel note that I asked if we were waiting for you! ok, now that I'm done whining I will go back to the game thread.


M Human unchained monk 8/paladin 6

When there is a penalty associated with failure (such as not noticing a deadly trap), you cannot take 20 on a skill check.


booooo, yeah somewhere in my head I knew that, like I said, just whining, but on the bright side it let Wulfgar test the new halo...


M Human unchained monk 8/paladin 6

Hehe! Yup! ;-)

Ok, started thinking about this, generally, we can take 20 looking for traps, but not for disabling traps, right?

That’s correct, so really, you could have taken 20 to spot the trap, DC 26, but it still would’ve been out of your reach lol ;-)


I'm cool with that, I was just double checking. There need to be some traps, that go off just to keep everyone honest :-), anyway it was a nice way to let Wulfgar introduce the healing thing.

I haven't quite figured out his relationship to Raphael yet. Without realizing it he was a good choice for a 'healer' I figure when Wulfgar gets to the 'spirit' part of 'spirit guide' that he will talk to different angels as the 'spirits.' But for now his 'sponsor' or 'patron' is Raphael.

Awesome


M Human unchained monk 8/paladin 6

The XP total goes to 1,946 XP per character after dealing with the scorpion darts trap...

...and then up to 2,174 XP apiece after surviving the poison gas trap...


M Human unchained monk 8/paladin 6

Just curious... does anyone else besides me read both tables’ gameplay threads for the story?

Haven't been... But I'm playing in two games and running two others, so I've always got plenty to look at!


I have not been either.


Male CG Human (Romani) Archaeologist 5 | HP 45/45 | AC 16 T 13 FF 14 | CMB +5, CMD 18 | F: +3, R: +8, W: +4 | Init: +3 | Perc: +9 | Speed 30ft | Luck rounds: 6/8 | Spell slots: 5/5, 2/3

So Wulfgar should get the wand... Who's having the amulet and the ring, before we face this boss?! I plan to stay at a distance, so don't really need either.


I have not read the other table as I want to be fresh when we all meet up one day. Meta knowing what the other players will be like would kind of take something away I feel.


Hey, why does Wulfgar have to take the wand? Does he look like he waggles wands?

Just sayin...

OH and I will be away from the computer for five hours, but I will check to see what's going on before I go to bed!

Yeah Wulfgar, I completely forgot that Mwikali has CLW on her list... Forget I spoke!
