Arcanium ~ A New World (Inactive)

Game Master BloodWolven

I thought this was a dark soul wish. Also I have spoken to my wife about this and unless her basset hound Gracie could be here she would not want me to wish her to this world without the knowledge of being reunited in heaven with our families. I also thought as much. She would believe I was in heaven and proving that not true would be too much for her.

I think the only way that I would allow this wish to work is if your wife wanted to join the game. Just saying.

Without having a whole conversation about Heaven, I think it is best to just to leave it as how Niversal stated it above! :)

I'll accept whatever information The Library deems to give.

That might be acceptable but it doesn't help me with specifics. I could go back and sort through the posts and find what we had last time for the library. Though I am having trouble just keeping up with regular posts. If you or someone else could look back and repost those rules that would be great, otherwise we will just go with what we have now.

Sorry. It wasn't my intent to make this difficult. I was just looking for lore on The Lady of The Lake because Joe hope to visit with her someday. As for the wish research, Joe wants to word his wish so Morgana gets imprisoned, yet Merlynn would still have some form of communication with Camelot/access to The Library, making her an unofficial Night Hawk. And my sublime creature and overpowered feats research went nowhere.

Maybe I should ask here what the gestalt bath thing is. Sounds like a way to become gestalt if we're not? What would we have to do?

I have remembered that the draught is gone now and just the mental bonus is permanent so fixed that. We still have the temp hp from the erastil temple blessing?

Wolf, do you want me to post my Day 4/5 Research before you resolve my stuff or are you planning to resolve it before I do my Day 4/5 posts?

Go ahead and post Day 4 and 5!

Gestalt bath... not in notes... so someone would have to look back.

Pretty much if you put Morgana back Merlynn is away too.

Wolf, I found the relevant post about your 20k post celebration here. The search thread bar isn't perfect, but it's pretty good.

Yes I have potion to drink to become familia of the Mistress.

So the wish I do to be half celestial template can I add that now?

Here is the earliest reference to the completed gestalt bath.

So we gotta get baptised.

For HOURS!!

Yikes. I can't hold my breath that long.

Also, are we in the library for 5 days? Or is it 7? I thought it was a week.

Straws are provided.

I can actually cast water breathing if that would work. Unless the mixture is not mostly water?

You have to make the wish, but you should be fine with making the adjustment now.

Water breathing or aboluth lung would work to breathe in the mixture.

Hold up, i'm not level 5 yet to cast water breathing. Aboleth's Lung will work and I can cast it on anyone else that is doing it too. Lasts for 4hrs.

So Serill and Markas are now gestalt godlings! Have you thought about what 'flavor' of godling you two will be? Both the adept godling and the eldritch godling gain spellcasting abilities, and you can choose between whether you cast arcane or divine spells and what ability attribute your spells are based on.
The clever godling is a martial class and gives you a huge suite of skills to choose from, while the mighty godling is a also a martial class and gives you the largest BAB progression and high hit dice.

Wait, i thought we just became gestalt from that. I didn't know it was to specifically become a godling.

Delman begins the ritual bringing each of you one at a time into the emerald mixture. As each of you leave it, you notice that any scars, patches, or skin alterations by damage are gone, also an emerald can be found embedded on your right forearm. He tells you, "The emerald is the activation for your vigor healing. 3 times per day you can cast lesser vigor at your level. Welcome godlings and chosen of the Mistress to your new power!"

That's what I gleamed from this. I might have misinterpreted that. I'm sorry.

I wasn't aware that Ryada was a bard and that Artemis had range covered with his gun. I feel a bit like a third banana and was trying to think how I could better help the group.

Niversal, play what you want and what makes you happy. We once had inspire courage from two different sources. It's fine. I'm enjoying playing with Niversal and Ed, and the group is really gelling.

No worries Niversal, with gestalt the roles quickly get covered. For a while there I didn't know if Artemis was going to come back and join us. Remember I wanted you to play what you wanted to play.

Delman did welcome you as Godlings and Chosen of the Familia... perhaps he was merely meaning by the power you now have you practically are a godling. You might want to ask if you are concerned. Your second class is up to you.

Markas is not aware of a godling class. Jedi Counsolar/Wizard coming up likely!

That is the way I took Delman's welcome as well.

Serill will take Alchemist (Mindchemist).

Do we keep anything from the expert levels (class skills/hp)? Or does it all go away?

Another Alchemist? Yes.

As I have said before you do the work and you can have any class you choose.

If you want them to become a godling you would need to have the idea introduced to you, do some research that leads you to the class, or something!

Everyone may choose to have a different class which can easily change 'ONCE'.

After the first time you will need to do some major retraining and research. Such as what Ryada had done and that was just to add an archtype to Slayer. Even at the end I decided to forgo the change.

-----
As you go gestalt and forego your expert levels, the only thing you keep is your added HP.

Alright, now I am the Wings of Death, beware Death to the enemy of the innocent. I am coming!

Wow, that seemed to be a spiritual event!

Ok, any Research that I am missing. Most of the NPCs have their own focuses but feel free to ask for help!

What else did Niversal ask to be made again?
HHH, easily done, +1 weapon, and pick two more of your wondrous items.

Anyone else ask for items? I hope everyone has at least an AC of 20 now!

Am I missing anything else?
Gestalt: check
Research: check mostly
Craft items: wip
Ceremony: in progress

We are doing 5 days, then there will be a meeting to determine if you want to stay longer or not.

Yep, that's why Serill made several days of his research about alchemy. He wants to learn more ways to enhance his mind and body with magic. So 1 Mindchemist/Internal Alchemist on the way. Is there a time element to how quick it happens?

So i have done 5 days research so far. Alchemy, Dragons, Umbral Dragons, Dragon Magic, Dragon orbs.

Serill would also like a Cloak of the Hedge Wizard (Conjuration) if it's possible to make. They're pretty cheap.

It is a spiritual event. I prayed the Jewish prayer of mourning and am doing mourning for my own death and sitting with my family in mourning of our loss.

How large is The Garden? Because this might be a good opportunity to Joe to meet his divine steed if large enough.

What is your divine steed?

Gertrude

Did we lose our rogue?

I reached out to his player, Captain Generica. We'll see. It looks like he's had a family emergency at the beginning of the month.

"I am still here!!! XD LOL!"

Just a moment of all our time: I wish now to salute in honor all military fallen in the line of duty who have purchased tomorrow's freedom and every day leading to and from this day. I raise my cup to the true heroes I served with who never held their parents, their spouses, or their children another day so that I might stand here now to salute them.

I raise my cup in honor of the fallen. Thank you for the salute. I know it is a somber and well wishing holiday. May there ever be the hope of freedom in our future and those willing to fight for it!

As Niversal used his wish to become half celestial, I was going to wait to have a description of him. I suppose I will let him do that.

Artemis if you want to talk about making Borealis stronger we can do it one of two ways. Here in discussion with players or in gameplay among characters. You might question what is the difference but here the DM can help you figure out mechanics and such. Whereas the NPCs are not the DM. XD

I have spoken to players via phone and PMs to help sort things out first and I am fine doing that here in discussion.

You said you wanted Borealis to mimic the quality of Excaliber. Well what does that mean? Do you want it to be a legendary item or do you just want it to have more abilities?

What does Excaliber or Excalavar do exactly that you want to mimic?

Well lets look and see what I do:

First it is a +2 cold iron longsword.
Eskalaver Bane of Undead Holy Avenger
+2d6 vs. undead [undead bane]

Well, I have been thinking and after giving it some thought, I want to use my wish to have Borealis morph into a legendary item (though I haven't found a good equivalent yet) and mimic Excalibur's sentience/intelligence with a small stat boost.

Well it can't morph into something we don't know. Though Borealis is a unique weapon which is similar to a legendary item.

You could have the wish give the weapon sentience. What purpose would you give it? What special ability would you give it? Use Magic item creation rules.

You will need to be very specific.

Joe please link Mental Avatar, I shouldn't have to look for it for 5 minutes after the 20 minutes searching for the rules! :(

Sorry, Wolf, I usually have Joe quite indexed. I shall fix that problem.

Ok, I have come out of my slumber in a mess of Paizo content and magic item creation rules and I think I have an ultimate winner for Borealis after the upgrade:

This is why I wanted you to describe your own transformations. Though for one reason or another you all wait for me to come up with it and then complain... :(
---
So on a completely different subject:
Artemis from what I can see you are not making a legendary item, instead you are enhancing the one you have.

Each wish can adjust or make a magical item by at most 25k. Then again asking for a legendary item would likely come with some curses.
---
If you are just going to make a post with ooc material that has nothing to add to the game put it here!!!

Should have posted here about it, oops.

I had no complaint about your description. It was in my follow up post that I even neglected to mention how Serill would look naked so that's all on me not you.

He looks like a giant "tickle me" Elmo doll, it's the end days!

Am I still waiting where Jellena put me?

Niversal you can't come back in, mere minutes have passed at most for you. The portal is also closed.

Ah
