Hmmm now that we have Asmodia how do we get her in.....

Thoughts?

METAMACHINEWARNING!!!!!

OK so she's a Cayden, so a bit rough around the edges, and not a fan of the establishment, could it be that she was hooked in with Janiven etc as a known 'sympathiser' and brought in to look at our wounds? We seem to have collected a few, so maybe 'Le Resistance!' are trying to look out for the active members and give her the tap on the shoulder. Bloodless would be all for giving her another pretty speech of invitation no doubt on seeing her value and her dedication, relishing the opportunity to have a fellow true believer who was upbeat and for the cause...

Meta-off...!

Hi Asmodia :)

RPG Superstar 2014 Top 16, RPG Superstar 2012 Top 16

If it were me, I'd simply say she was already part of the league. They've given us a dozen NPCs already, so it's simple enough to add one more. But I don't know if that works with the overall game.

Welcome aboard, Asmodia.


Female Human Cleric/4

howdy, all.

Asmodia would certainly enjoy a fine speech, after her work has been done. I imagine her as Hawkeye Pierce from the film MASH. Yeah, she can be a little crude and doesn't care a fig for the establishment, but when it comes to healing, there's very little funny business.

And the list of good films I need to see in the near future expands by one.

So, a rules question before it comes up. Would some light knife-work and Cure Light Wounds be sufficient to clear the Hellknight markings from their horses, or are they too deep?


Male Orc Expert 5

It would still leave a sacr and piss off the horse but it woudl remove the markings. The trouble is the equivalent to such a thing would be scratching the serial number off a stolen car. So long as the Dottari don't notice it's fine. The moment they do however and the questions start flying you better have some bribe money on hand.


Female Human Cleric/4

Ah yes, please let me know if that Asmodia follows Cayden is immersion breaking for the group. I was considering Milani for a time, but assumed Milani were more of a militant god than I typically make my clerics, with the blood watering the rose and what not. These are things that I assume that I can change before I am introduced, if it is required of me. I noted elsewhere that someone would like a tiefling, again, I am still open to suggestions at this point.

So you tale a tiefling and an aasamir and place them in a non-conductive box separated only by a perforated non-conductive plate. Standard conductive pickups are attached to both subjects and lead to a voltmeter.

The box is then spun rapidly on its long axis withing a hoop of copper wire. This will generate no current but is a great deal of fun.

From Poor Pollux's almanac.

HAHAHA! As the daughter of an aerospace engineer who watched Nova as a kid, I love it. :D

I will look into changing, if ya'll would believe it would be more fun.

Edit:

Alright, after a look tiefling stats would be as follows:

Str 8, Dex 11, Con 13, Int 12, Wis 16, Cha 14

I suppose I would pick up the Infernal Bastard trait to "de-power" the race for just the +2 to saves vs. Cold, Fire and Acid and... not too sure about the 0-level spell instead of Darkness. Would it have to come from the sorcerer/wizard list? in that case, acid splash is always handy.

If I went Milani I would change travel domain for liberation (Freedom) domain, and gain the ability to help people out with saves as opposed to teleporting all over the map. I've seen teleport pretty much near break a game before, so, I will allow the GM to make the call.


Honestly, I see no need to change from exactly what you built to start with...

To be honest I prefer your normal build... that 8 Str is a bit of a pain for a Medium armour wearer for starters ;P

As I say, its your call, but I like the original flavour Asmodia, but its your character to play so play what makes you happy...!

I was going to comment that you stopped watching it, but I noticed your profile indicates you're in Norway now.

Offhand, you can still find several good PBS shoes from http://video.pbs.org, but Nova doesn't appear to work from overseas (or at least Germany). You can still find (some) American Experience, Frontline, and some other interesting ones.

It's a real pity you can't even get it though (at least the German) iTunes store. :-(

Cool beans. I am actually really psyched to play Asmodia as is, since I just viewed MASH again, and fell in love all over again with Hawkeye Pierce.

Where am I going to get my nubile teenaged boy who can make a mean martini, though... *strokes chin* what is a girl with positive charisma and the ability to create wine and beer at will to do?

I am not a fan of the Martini. Blech.
The wine and beer sound much better; more the wine than the beer.

In fact I have some in this box.

I love the martini, made with real gin and no more than a passing mention of vermouth.

Looking forward to getting Asmodia in soon :)

Don't go getting all broken hearted, I just had to act indifferent to you in front of the party or they'd get jealous about our 'relationship'...


As we've only played out about 2 days time, I'd agree with Motteditor that Asmodia is best introduced as part of the league, who had other business the past few days.

Perhaps Janiven or Areal could be sending her along to oversee the burial.

I just realized I've been presenting myself like Lily Von Schtup from Blazing Saddles. Oh my goodness. Whelp, if you're gonna ape anyone, it may as well be Madeline Khan in one of her best roles.

Well the being part of the league thing is easy. Overseeing the burial probably not so much. One it would kind of ruin the exercise. Two I don't see Arael sending the cleric of a chaotic god to oversee a burial of someone who was undoubtedly lawful and might take offense at the idea of having a service done for them like that.

Don't worry we'll get through this as quickly as feasible and we'll get her introduced.


Female Human Cleric/4

No worries. I'll just set myself up behind the bar. Sample some of the local brews, inspire a few duels for my affection by showing favor to one patron over another... that sorta thang.


Got to say the 'carter' piece is fairly amusing to me. I had LeVash do the Bluff/Disguise as a take 10 because I figured that he wasn't too stressed about whether y'all saw through it, but I wasn't counting on Calla's abysmal luck (and Bejis in-character apparently never gave it a second thought)...

It was a pretty severe crack for LeVash to break character once, he couldn't bring himself to do it again :)

That all being said, some questions about horses...

Would the Gather Information aspect of Diplomacy be useful in locating an 'equine chop shop'?

Could the Disguise skill be used to color-match a coverup for the tatoos?

That's ok, Bloodless worked it out...

Lucky you did, because otherwise Bloodless would have tipped Calla off that the Cart driver can now connect us to a shallow grave for a murdered Hellknight - he knows too much!.

Reckon that would have been a grave for two :P


Half-Elf (Chelaxian) Female HP 109, AC 26/18/21, F +13*, R +11*, W +15*, Init +8, Per +22 Inquisitor 13

She'd had told you to just go deal with it yourself then. And then commented how you were too soft-hearted to deal with someone who wanted us dead, but some poor carter was worthy of your blade. A queer sort of bloodlust, indeed...

Wouldn't have cared, but seeing how worried people were about being caught, an apparent stranger coming to the hideout (no less) identifying us all, then going for a ride with the body we were trying to hide is possibly even more shady risk :p

Combat Maneuver Bonus link

When you attempt to perform a combat maneuver, make an attack roll and add your CMB in place of your normal attack bonus. Add any bonuses you currently have on attack rolls due to spells, feats, and other effects. These bonuses must be applicable to the weapon or attack used to perform the maneuver. The DC of this maneuver is your target's Combat Maneuver Defense. Combat maneuvers are attack rolls, so you must roll for concealment and take any other penalties that would normally apply to an attack roll.

I think Bless would apply to the Combat Maneuver.

Male Orc Expert 5

Just one more goblin to clear out then we can get asmodia and the rest of the adventure good and properly dealt with.


Female Human Cleric/4

Asmodia stirs from the position in which she fell, rising awkwardly, with peanut shells clinging to her clothes and hair, grabs the nearest tankard and quaffs its stale, flat contents. Her expression changes rapidly after the vile concoction passes, leaving her somewhat green, but otherwise unfazed.

Mornin', all.

She does a quick body check, peanut shells falling from her person and hair, surveying her environment, then gives a slow and wry smile.

Guess it ain't all that good for everyone, hmmm?


Male Dwarf Monk/2

So, Tark, what's your thought on adapting our characters to reflect the new archetypes in UC?


...and yes, as indicated in my last post, LeVash is juggling at least 3 identities on a regular basis. :)

What did you have in mind?


Male Orc Expert 5

Asmodia you can go ahead and post for your downtime stuff. For now we'll assume that you've been out of town dealing with "family business" before coming back to the haloran league. You know of the new members and of their deeds but it is up to you whether you actively seek them out at this time.

I'm thinking flowing monk. Tok's graceful, right?

Yes! Whenever I think of Tok I think of the Martha Graham dance company


Female Human Cleric/4

Hmm, I am rather uncertain how to approach. It is not as if Asmodia is nervous about approaching Bejis in and of itself, but... Is there some sort of secret handshake I should know that would identify her as being part of the league or the children so he doesn't look at a flirty gal asking for alcohol like some manner of looney?

If holding down a man and bludgeoning him into submission is considered graceful than swans aint got nuthin on you.

Yea, nixing that idea. That being said I do rather like the archetypeseven above those in the APG.

Well by dint of just being inside the hideout at the behest of Arael you prevent yourself from getting sworded to death. That's a plus. Other than that it's up to you.

That being said Bejis is probably the easiest TO approach. He's practically the straight man in this party of disgruntled maguses, scarlet pimpernel druids, and angels walking the streets hunting devils.


Female Human Cleric/4

Scarlet Pimpernel Druids? Those Chelaxies seek him everywhere? But but... If he is in hell, wouldn't Asmodeus let them know that he's got it?

Thanks for the clarification, I actually don't remember what I was working on before, but I can get something up tonight, I am sure.
