Nice! The party has gained a worshipper of an Old God of Procreation and a worshipper of an Empyreal Lord of Sexual Freedom.

Time to run that PFS classic: The Steamy Slave Pits of Love! ;0)

@Jelani: It has recently come to my attention that the Strange Aeons AP has cooked up a few new gods for the Lovecraft Pantheon, and one of them is literally the perfect deity for Sabrina: Yig, The Father of Serpents. He is the Great Old One of Cycles, Procreation, and Serpents and is described as doubtlessly the most benign of all the Lovecraft gods. He is Chaotic Neutral. As such, I'm retconning Sabrina into worshipping him.

EDIT: Forum ate my original post when I tried to edit it. Reposting here.


Cool :)

Sabrina, I went an hour early and I'm disguised as a commoner. I doubt I'd need a bodyguard.

Hi folks

I've been more silent than normal the past couple of weeks for two reasons:

1. I started a full-time job two weeks ago for the first time in 6 years, so my availability for multiple posts in a day has been almost eliminated.

2. Due to my lack of infrequent posts, Hrim's role in the group has worn on me to the point of not being fun enough for the little time I have. Fortunately, Jelani is open to me changing characters like Gyrfalcon. Unfortunately, my lack of time also affects my ability to find a fun character concept to play. I haven't researched for a new character in over a year. So, I'm asking for help.

I enjoy playing game mechanics that enable the character to be effective and useful in and out of combat. I like the character build to drive the fluff description.

For fluff, I was thinking about a born noble character to look down on Argor's aspirations, just for entertainment, but I'm not married to the idea. ;D

Please send me any of your character concept ideas.

cheers

Hmm. Character concepts...

I had always said that if I lost Cladissa at some point, I would bring in a rogue-type who was sent on a mission to steal a vial of the serum. After getting exposed to it during the heist, I'd have to then seek out the Freaks for help and guidance (and then join the team that way). Now that I've got the gold and influence for a Raise Dead in case Cladissa bites it, I'll probably never use that idea. So feel free to take that, in case you like that idea.

Another possible idea would be the use of the vigilante character class. I haven't really looked at it, but it seems like the campaign could support the class -- with the added bonus of the mutations from the serum (or now Nyugusk's body fluids) that could aid in the alter ego of the dual persona. Something to think about, anyway.

Those are a couple. I'll see if I can think of anything else for you.


Hey, first, coverage on the new job. I hope it's a good one for ya!

I like the accidentally mutated thief idea. Here are some more of the top of my head:

- cleaning up Nyug's goo mutates one of Argor's servants
- Hrim gets Batbongle pregnant, and the serum causes his child to come off age super fast
- Or (if she's not too similar to Hrim) have his serum wear off on her, and take her over as a cleric.
- Nyug actually "re-forms" in some way out of the goo (and becomes your PC instead of mine... likely changed mentally and physically by the process)

EDIT
- or bring Grommuk back, or HIS kid


Thanks for the ideas. They get the creative juices flowing.

How long has Grommuk been gone in game time?

Cheers


I haven't been keep strict track, but a couple of months by now at least.

Have fun, Argor!

As for how long Grommuk's been gone, I'm pretty sure he left within about three to four months of our adventures. We've had a few spots of significant downtime since then, so I'd say it's been close to at least six months.


Orcs live short lives anyway right? If he'd gotten someone pregnant shortly after getting the serum...and the serum started working in utero on the babe, who's to say it wouldn't have come of age yet?

(Of course, it could also have been captured by Time Travelling Aliens and lived elsewhere for decades and just now gotten back to Golarion. The sky--and Jelani's tolerance for us bending his world--is the limit!)


I'm pretty flexible within the bounds of what's reasonable on Golarion.

Sabrina, thanks for the flank. FYI, when I flank with someone, we both get +4 (my CHA bonus) to hit instead of +2.

EDIT: Jelani, no time/brain-space to read the new Athakihs doc but definitely intrigued. Cheers,


OK I've a concept approved by Jelani.

Does anyone have any interest and time to build a character? Between my new job and going away this weekend, I don't have enough time to build him soon.

cheers

Should I DMPC Hrim for this fight?

If you need him. It's my gaming tonight, so I'm slammed.


CDL, what all is going into your AC this encounter? On your sheet you list 23, and in your post you mention 33+3.

As far as flanking, yeah, I think RAW it's yes...but I can see ruling it either way.

In my experience, Jelani generally favors RAW. I mean, I guess he could rule the other way, but that would be unusual.

It's 23 unbuffed. Slap on Mage Armor and Shield and factor in Small Air Elemental Size and Dex bonuses, and it shoots up to 33. It's 34 with Haste, and 36 against Evil creatures thanks to Magic Circle.


Nice!

I like seeing how you're manging a tanky druid.

Haven't had time to edit my tracker. Have used 8 reservoir points and 1 first level spell.


Yoiks! I'm down to 7/60 HP in one round (and I'm grappled).

Jelani, did Cladissa succeed at dazing it?

(Also, did you catch to roll to see if I dazed it last round (DC 19 Fort, which it was likely to pass...but might as well check.)


No, I did not roll for that. Apparently I forget everything these days.

Sabrina, that's a life saver. Thanks!

Now the question. I'm at 7/60 HP (and this thing hits me on a one, and his average damage is 60 / round. which is all of my HP). I could try to take it out with a full attack. If I fail (as I'm likely to, based on his red bar) I think I'm burning two hero points to Cheat Death....but perhaps that buys yall time to finish it?

Or maybe we just need to keep this thing at bay for another few rounds as Osprey talks to Dunnamast?

The thing is, I don't see a lot of ways for me to avoid getting killed next round anyway (if I try to get away, I'll likely trigger an AoO and die from that, and Withdrawing doesn't work against things with reach) so I suspect I might as well try a hasted full attack.

Before I do though...and other thoughts? Ways to coordinate?

I say give it all you got and full-round attack this sucker. I really don't see any better options. You can use your hero points, but I can also bring you back for 1,000 gp. Hopefully, we have some Classy hexes coming next round. Evil Eye-Slumber-Slumber is a favorite of mine.

Well, I flubbed my SR check (thanks Jelani), but Hrim also routinely memorizes ear-piercing scream, so there's the slimmest of chances he could punch it through and daze the creature for a round.

Or has Hrim already gone this round?

New profile for Sabby. With that demon running around, she changes her surname during the downtime. Her selection is a major slight against a certain Yellow King.

Oh, and her second mutation results in Large Size and an Extra Head.

Evolutions:
Base: +3 Str; +3 Dex; +6 Natural Armor
Extra Head - 2 Points
Large Size (+8 Str, -2 Dex, +4 Con, +2 Natural Armor) - 4 Points
Ability Increase: Dex (+2) - 2 Points

As for her new gear, I sold a bunch of stuff and then grabbed a Large Scimitar for her base form and a Holy Amulet of Mighty Fists for Wild Shape.
