Any GM Glyphs?
Or anything in particular I need to know about your character, such as Dubious Knowledge?
How do you feel about taking friendly fire?

This is a GameDay game, so you should be signed up on the spreadsheet before you come here. That also means we have a scheduled start date of September 4th.

Friendly fire is ok as long as Lokoloko isn't dying or in danger of such.
I have played this but it's been awhile.

He's lvl 5 -- just haven't updated his statblock yet (which is par for the course with PCs I don't play as often)...

Fixed the access issue with the Slides.

Horizon Hunters

3-11 | "Sunshine" | male (he/him) liminal kayal (Nidalese) ranger (precision) 6 | ◆◇↺ | AC 24 (25) | HP 90/90 | P+10, F+12, R+14, W+10 | Explore: Avoid Notice | DV, 25' | Focus: 2/2 | Hero: 0/3 | Active Conditions: self-flagellating

1. 3 glyphs

2. Nothing unusual about the character other than he is a melee ranger, so despite being DEX-based, he will prefer to be up front. Edit: Also, Sunshine has a Belt of Good Health, an Uncommon item from the Beginner's Box.

3. Friendly fire is okay as long as Sunshine isn't dying or close to dying, and gets to deal a reciprocal amount of damage out of combat in retribution.

Envoy's Alliance

Cond: Razmir's Blessing (8 THP)| Male Skilled Human Tempest Oracle 4| HP 44/44 (+8)| AC 21| F+7, R+9, W+9| Speed 25 ft |Perc(T) +7 | Init +7 (+1 if scouting)| Exp: Detect Magic| Hero: 2| Spells DC 20. Slots: 1□□□□, 2□□☑☑, Focus□| ✋✋| Cursebound 0/2|

Brother Nebulous has not yet reached level 4 but he will just before Game Day, so I will fill in his details first as if he were level 4. I have his profile typed up and ready to upload to his character page and will do so once I complete the scenario which levels him up.

1. No Glyphs (yet).

2. He has the Razmirian Priest dedication, so he can once per minute as a 2 action activity grant 8 Temp HP which lasts for 24 hours. This temp HP can awaken a dying or unconscious PC. He can keep doing this an unlimited amount of time per day, so there will be a guaranteed flow of Temp HP if you give him even 10 minutes to reapply it.

In short, everyone is getting 8 Temp HP.

3. Friendly fire is okay as long as Brother Nebulous isn't dying or close to dying. To be honest, he's probably going to be the one dealing friendly fire and healing it off, so...

4. For anyone who uses the Paizo Campaign Tools extension, this is what he actually looks like.

5. He 100% sounds like Palpatine.

Dinardin is okay with friendly fire so long as it's used judiciously. He would have a problem with a mad bomber hitting him repeatedly, as that's just disrespectful.


Male Fleshwarp Talos HP 60/60 | AC 23 | DC 20| Fort +11, Ref +10, Will +10 | Perc +10, Darkvision| Thaumaturge 5 | Hero Points: 1/3 | Active Conditions: None | Speed: 30ft

I also have 3 glyphs to share, though it sounds like we already are well above the threshold to each being with 2.

I ran this 2 years ago, but have never played it.

Ephesian is going to be level 5 by the time that we start, and is fine taking some friendly fire.

There are a couple oddities for Ephesian:
1) He has the Willing Host Background from 03-98, so I might try to channel spirits to make a check I normally couldn't.
2) He has the reaction:

Infernal Detonations:

From 01-11 Flames of Rebellion
You are the rightful master of the infernal keep known as Diggen’s Rest. Once per adventure, you can
use the following reaction:
Infernal Detonations [reaction] Trigger A creature within 30 feet of you targets you or an ally with an attack; Effect The creature
takes fire damage equal to 1d6 + your level (basic Reflex save). The DC of the Reflex save is equal to your spell DC or your
class DC, whichever is higher.

3) Ephesian is a Regalia and Mirror Thaumaturge, so everyone who stays within 15ft of him gets a +1 status to saving throws against fear and I reduce frightened values of allies within 15ft of me by 1 at the end of my turn. There might be two of me when this happens.
4) Finally, Ephesian has the flame oracle archetype, so he's going to be casting Oracular Warning at the start of combat and lighting himself on fire a little bit (1 persistent fire damage per round.

Just so we're clear -- everyone is ok with splash damage? Lokoloko doesn't have the hostile-only splash damage ability... and he loves fire :)

And to those who haven't played with this PC before, Lokoloko in Filipino means 'Crazy' :)

Looks like everyone's signed in to the thread, but we still need some on RPG Chronicles, macros, and tokens on the Slides.

Looks like there are enough Glyphs for everybody to start with two Hero Points.

Unless there is an obvious reason to do them out of order, visit the sites in the order they are in the scenario.


Pathfinder Provisions ◆◇↺

Still need:
Dinardin and Tieri on RPGChronicles.
Macros for Sunshine and Tieri.
Tokens for Sunshine and Tieri. We can always use your forum avatars if you don't have other tokens.

My apologies. Macros and tokens for Sunshine are filled in.

BTW, the formulas for the Lore skills were off on Dindarin and Sunshine's sheets. For example, on Dindarin's sheet, cell F34 has his Warfare Lore modifier, but cell J34 references cell F35 (the next line). This causes the macro to be blank. I fixed Sunshine's sheet, and the first four sheets are already fixed. You (GM) may want to check your template to see if it's a problem with the template.

Huh, weird. This is my first time using it. Not sure how I managed to do that.

Sunshine for keeping up the RP.

Something thats been causing me considerable delay is our approach to this situation. Are we telling her the whole truth, part of it, or lying about it?

Brother Nebulous feels like we've got enough clues to tell her the truth. If we could get our stories straight I think it would help.

That sounds unnecessarily complex - you need dangerous chemicals just to worship. What if I just take your money for tithes and beat you instead?

LOL yes, that's a yes. As long as it doesn't kill me.

Only the faithful of Zon-Kuthon are allowed to participate in the beating rituals.

Phantom Menace? You mean from a Galaxy far far away?

Maybe...we'll see how many Star Wars references I can squeeze out before the scenario is through. That's the reason why I took this PC along.

Brother Nebulous mumbles that it's treason, then

So for Lokoloko's downtime (assuming he comes out the other side), he's going to create 4 vials of Moderate Bottled Lightning. So assuming I'm reading this right (8d downtime):

1d - spend 20gp up front to prep and get raw materials

Make a crafting check (DC 18 for a lvl 3 item)

Spend the next 7+ days with another crafting (or other downtime) check to pay off the balance?


Pathfinder Provisions ◆◇↺

All correct, except you don't need another check to keep working.

As a level 5 Expert, you'll earn 1 gp per day towards the project (or 2 gp per day on a critical success). That's not enough to fully finish it, but you can either shelve it and then keep working on it during your next downtime, or pay the balance to complete it immediately.

I think we've gotten everything we can out of this NPC. Should we try and find Admina (the one who runs a salon and may be kidnapped?)
