[5e] Lost Tamoachan [Completed!] (Inactive)

Game Master mishima

Katra got the axe, she's good at that (since her AC went up again this level anyway =D )

Boy, I hadn't realized how far along we are considering we only started the second week of October. We are a little more than 3/4 complete and could reach conclusion fairly fast depending on stuff. Thanks to all for posting reliably and keeping it fun.

An awesome group, but it couldn’t be done without a consistent GM!

Here Here!!! Great work all round and lots of fun!!!

Merry Holidays to everyone as well!!!

Time flies when you're slapping around your allies or tying them up. =D

Didn’t know it was that kind of game when I signed up...

Dwarves....they sure are weird...lol

"you got it all wrong Cat. Dwarves are the only sane race in a crazy world."

I’m an idiot. I should have one more invocation. Given recent developments, the most IC one to add is this:

Eldritch Sight

You can cast Detect Magic at will, without expending a spell slot.

Wow, sorry for not noticing that. Feel free to pick whichever though.

It’s the players’ responsibility to know his own character. That, and I was thinking about how I now wanted k-Arcana. So this works out fairly well. It shows a lack of formal training, but ability due to warlock powers.

These are pretty nasty really, not sure Lidras has a good option for it...though I think you guys will be fine. Forgoing attack rolls, you would need something like elemental damage without a save (because of magic resistance and its other immunities). Has flight similar to yours, could perhaps use some creative aerial combat trick?

Lidras, you might recall from your early days...as your eldritch powers were just beginning to manifest and you were still desperately searching for information, a certain conversation from an old witch on the outskirts of Neverwinter. For the price of a goblin's liver, she recounted a legend involving a fallen celestial who turned to demons for power during the Time of Troubles. The story, while fantastical, held the lore that divine constructs as these had special wards resisting his magic in general, but also in particular the kind of force energy granted to such a twisted warrior...such blasts were completely ineffective.

Loved this way of telling its immunities!

Also eldrich blast won’t work? That’s why I took the +1 Attack invocation. :)

Also, great time for a crit!

Katra, I'm doing Out of the Abyss in another thread and just realized your AC is only 1 less than the Demogorgon's.

Which is weird, because it's not that high an AC. I have a 5th level fighter in a different group that has a 22 ac as well.

I mentioned this to Daniel in another thread but wanted to say here as well, we are very close to finishing...maybe 2 fights at most remaining. There should be a tie-in to the woman on the beach back in the beginning, but if there are any other loose ends youd like to resolve let me know.

The excitement of finishing an adventure mixed with the sadness of seeing it end...

This has been a great group!

So guys, once you're done questioning the ghost that is basically the end here. The module finished when you reached the treasure and the rest is just a lame attempt on my part to give a little story to it.

Not required, but I would appreciate a little epitaph of sorts for your character. Perhaps they go hunt the other centaurs, clear out and sanctify the temple and turn it into a base, have adventures on the sea hauling the 20,000 gold back to the Sword Coast etc up to you.

Once everyone's PC wrapped up I'll close the campaign and mark it complete! I think this has been my favorite experience yet DMing on the boards, thank you all.

Also special thanks to Ken (cloud's player) for providing me access to all the Beyond material. It makes it super convenient to get high resolution maps and artwork, not to mention easy access to all the rules. :D

Hey, it costs me nothing extra and you put up with me in a few games now despite my erratic posting habits! (Not to mention those games being the most reliable and consistent I’ve played in here!)

Thank you for the fun game!

Thank you for having us! I’ll get an ending written up on Monday.

This has been an amazing experience, and you have been a great GM. It would be worth fighting tooth and nail to get into any game you run. :)

Players make it just as much as GM, and you guys are definitely master-class players.

I put a full map reveal up on the slides if interested, circled the few unexplored areas in cyan. Some highlights from those things that could have been:

a funny little Romeo and Juliet scene involving that wtf crazy sleep poison
wight fight with turn resistance
oni fight with tons of spell scrolls reward
semi-sentient tree with lightning bolts
trap that causes a permanent Otto's irresistible dance ("reward" for figuring out mirror crap...)
winning the Pelota (ball game) would have rewarded a whistle capable of granting a 60 flight speed to anyone

I have truly enjoyed our group and Lidras has the right of it: you are a great GM.

Epilogue done. It felt right for a warlock of growing power and an unidentied patron.

Thank you all once again! I do have to say that this has been a great group. Memorable characters, fun banter, and a fast paced posting cycle that let us finish this in good time.

Also thank you for telling us what we missed. The completionist in me was glad to read that.

Good times. :)

Just want to say thank you to everyone for making this such a great game...will miss you all!!

Hey DM, maybe Pisco should sail back to the Forgotten Realms and give Molok a hand.....looks like he might need it!!!

Epilogue:

As the group dispersed, each going their separate way, Pisco remains at the encampment. The money and fame he had won kept him in food and drink for many months, but soon the lure of adventure tickled his nose and he was back on board ship, this time heading back to "civilization, but with a stop in the Moonshae Islands first. Who knows what those misty isles might have hidden....

Ha, yeah feel free to make a cameo in that game, that might be funny. :)

Alright, marking inactive. If you'd like to be removed as a player (so the game isnt on the list at all) I can do that too, just send a PM.
