Just a heads up. I will be leaving Thursday morning for a 4-day retreat at the beach that lasts til Sunday afternoon, then I have a Sunday night concert to attend. I will take my computer with me, but I may not be able to post much til after I get home. Please feel free to bot me if I delay the game at all.
On Monday, my dog goes into surgery and when he returns home on Tuesday, I will be on a full-time home care regimen with him. He needs to be walked with a belly band whenever he needs to relieve himself or get up to get a drink or eat, so it will be a busy time. (He's an almost 100 lb st. bernard puppy, so he can't be carried for these things).
I'll be able to post regularly again starting Monday, but perhaps not as frequently as usual for a while.... Anyway, sorry in advance for any lack of posting on my part. I will do the best I can.

This week has been filled with taxes (mine and my mother's), making offers on a house and my oldest son's fourth birthday (today). So, no appearances from me until tomorrow, probably.

GM, for clarification, what does the bolded part of that statement mean? Is there an additional enemy in play that's not represented on the map, or was something else visible?
hahaha no, it my personal oracle curse. xD I tend to forget words in my sentences.
The correct sentence is:
"Carax opens the door and sees a woman with tangled black hair laughing as some smoke comes out of a metal bin."

@Xanderfel: Your character has no idea if the captain made her save or not! Please refrain from metagaming and select another action, for instance another attribute to give -2.
GM I am confused by this post! Selecting another attribute is exactly what Xan has done? I chose attack instead of AC this time, and indicated it out of character, so I'm not sure what I've done wrong here. How should I have written my post? I'll try to do better. Thank you!
Edit: rereading my post I understand that Xan notices her "avert her eyes". I assumed that hexes work like targeted spells in that regard.

if a creature's saving throw succeeds against a targeted spell, you sense that the spell has failed. You do not sense when creatures succeed on saves against effect and area spells.

I am the one that has to apologize. I read your post too fast. Everything's good for me. Sorry for the harsh words!
You have successfully completed the scenario and earned the 2 points of prestige. You also earned a special boon, the Budding Friendship (Lady Silviana) boon on your Chronicle sheet.
Reporting and chronicles will be done this week. :)

Thanks Zinou! Thanks everybody! 'Twas fun, tracking down them thar evil doers.
Great job everyone!
Yelek got rather lucky with his rolls so combat wasn't really troublesome but he could have done nothing in social and investigative situations, so everyone contributed fairly to our success! Besides everyone roleplayed their character very well and it was great to read each and every post by all of you.
DM: Thanks for the game, it was fun and I hope we'll play together again sometimes!

I didn't forget you all. :)
It's just a long week at work, I barely can post once a day in my other games. I should have enough time this afternoon, though.

Sheet looks great, thanks Zinou.
Also, looking through the Season 8 Faction sheet, I'm assuming Lady Darchana qualifies for the following? Would like to make the attempt if you don't mind? I should be able to auto succeed with a take 10 Knowledge: Arcana for a 19 vs DC 16.
(0/2)Recruit a named NPC scholar, knowledgeable spellcaster, or similar figure to the Dark Archive. Recruitment requires a Diplomacy or Knowledge (arcana) check with a DC equal to 15 plus your character level.
She does qualify but you have to roll the check, you can't take 10 or 20. Furthermore, you can't take 10 on a knowledge roll, unless you have an ability that says so.
I let you make your roll to see if you succeed.
