At 3rd level, any cure wounds spells a vindicator casts on himself are automatically empowered as if by the Empower Spell feat, except they do not use higher spell level slots or an increased casting time. If the vindicator targets himself with a cure spell that affects multiple creatures, this ability only applies to himself. At 8th level, these healing spells are maximized rather than empowered.

@DM - Do you mind if I re-tool, as in take 4 of the 9 skill points I currently have in Escape Artist (never used) and put them in Disable Device (hardly ever used). Originally, I'd purposely left Disable Device weak so as not to step on "toes". Those toes are gone?
@The rest of ya'll... I don't have "Trapfinding" so magical traps are all yours.
Also, you folks have more experience with the shadow-whatevers. We're going into their nest and we've seen the Morrowfall is less likely to be used...
Wand of Daylight anyone?
Also, as everyone was a caster, Gerard was not built with Use Magic Device in mind. Maybe Phem will rub up... I mean off on him. Is one a prerequisite of the other logistically speaking?
Worth considering.
Also
Self lay on hands
Anybody else want a tap?
BTW can I have a charge from the wand of restoration?
Now that we are in town, we will probably be able to get Lesser Restores from our allies. Remember the wand gives FULL restores so we should save it for the level loss.
Wand of Daylight sounds good
Since the place will be lusy with undead, we should get holy water, hide from undead items, detect undead, plus (Lesser) Restore potions and scrolls since we will be getting slapped. Death Ward is a good idea for the inevitable vampire showdown.
Gerard sneak attacking with rapid fire holy water vials sounds awesome.
Anyone want anything from the treasure pile? Daggers for Gerard?(There is a +3 silver dagger in there, excellent against vampires and devils0
Orsin, want anything? I can get the tallies done up today.
Sneak is precision... doesn't work with splash.
+3 dagger is fine, but no hemming/hawing about $18K, like the rapier incident.
:)

That is fine.
How much coin did I say I owed the needy for killing Madjaw?
I don't recall you saying how much coin you would pay. We can RP you praying for your conscience and atonement.

Can't look until I'm home... What have Trap DCs been like? This AP is deadly. We had that trap when I first joined.
Maybe I'll shoot for DC 33 or 35, Disable Device. I hate hate hate traps, was glad it wasn't my job.
Alright,
That ended up with alot of coin.
The issue now is how the hell we get rid of so much coin in short order.
For instance I have a little over 16, 000 gp woth of coin.
Westcrown is big enough (I think )for most stuff but takes time.
Don't suppose the Iomedaen church would have some high value stuff?

The only open church permitted in Westcrown is Asomedues. Others are outlawed, some like Iomedae and Calistria.
Your half-brother will buy the gear off you Daniel at half-price. He'll act as broker.
Gerard, take a look at the rings like Ring of Maniacal Devices. +5 Craft Traps and Disable Devices for 5k. There is a vest item but you are wearing quick runner's shirt.
Eyes of Eagle(+5 Perception)
Goggles of Minute Seeing(+5 Disable device)
Andrea will probably be upgrading her Cloak of Resistance to +2. She'll no doubt be coughing up money to help her prostitute friends gain liberty.

Gerard, too bad you weren't here when Baldwin hit us with the amnesia trap.
I'm in something of dilemma here the AP has the next event happening the next day once you get back to town. There is little if any rest before the 6th book begins. The events following Drovenges death come to rapid succession.
I know Andrea and Orsin want to free the working girls from the Grotto the last Big Side Storyline to clean up other than Orsin's personal problems but that actually coincides as a conclusion. The same can be said about Gerard gaining control of the COT - its more of a conclusion or a coda.
I think I was! Cause I don't remember!
Are we at about 30K gp?
Well ending the Shadowcurse could allow us to take a break. I don't expect us to really get anything done before hitting Walcourt for the penultimate plot point(Ending the curse)
Being able to take a few days off after killing Ilnerik doesn't sound out of line.

I can probably slide something in between book 5 and 6 regarding the Grotto. If you all defeat Ilnerik that should rattle the city and perhaps the owner of the Grotto will be receptive to hearing a deal.
I just don't want you thinking I'm ignoring or not doing anything with that sidestory.
Yeah, if there's going to be any ignoring or slighting... It will be of me!
Right boss?

Right. Paperwork takes time to clear, especially in Westcrown(Need to get everything in triplicate)
Cheapest way to upgrade is to have current stuff Improved.
Eg +1 nat armor to +2 is just pay the difference.
3000 gp.
Selling a +1 for 500 and buying a +2 for 4000gp is a 500gp loss.
Is there time to upgrade?
One lot of 500 is not much but there are a number of items in the Xmas tree.
you haven't been ignored or slighted.
I'm off to baseball game. I won't be on much tonight.
Andrea's expenditures.
50 GP trust fund
Will upgrade Cloak to +2
Pick up Torc from Alistar's
Will think of scrolls and stuff to get.
I was teasing... Enjoy the game!
So, Possess Object, maybe? I can't imagine Ilnerik's peeps are going to be succeptible to Cloudkill...
My wish list
Upgrade Amulet of Natural armor to +2
Cost: 3000
Upgrade Cloak of Resistance from +1 to +2
Cost: 3000
Buy Dusty Rose Ioun stone (+1 Insight to AC) cost:5000
Buy Quick runner's shirt,
Cost: 1000
Total cost:12000
Also have to pick up my Jingasa helm which is already paid for.
Net AC gain is +3
+1 to saves
One extra move action per day
Anyone have any suggestions?
Maybe sell boots of the cat and buy FEATHERSTEP SLIPPERS.
need to keep the tank mobile?
If you don't plan on falling much, sure.
I'm also going to look into a wand of Lesser Restore. Our Wands of Restoration can clear up things like STR damage, but the (YMMV) 'small stuff' like str damage can be solved with a Lesser Restore unless we have a NEED HEAL NOW! situation.
Edit: Fully charged Lesser Restore runs 4,500
So, Possess Object, maybe? I can't imagine Ilnerik's peeps are going to be succeptible to Cloudkill...
Being able to bludugen people as a statue can be fun, but you would be helpless while doign that. Perhaps for scouting?
The advice section has a guide to witches that gives tip if you are interested
@Phem - Hellmouth Lash?
@Andrea - So, we have how much to spend? I got lost.

- masterwork composite longbow (+3 Str) with 20 cold iron arrows (200 gp) s/b 350 (comp lbow 100, msw 300, str 300)

Looks like I was off. How much gold do we get going by your figures?
Andrea's kept a running list of the items gathered. you can go through the post if you want to and add up the gear. I post it pretty quickly after the combat.
I will PM the list to Gerard
@Phem - Hellmouth Lash?
That's a racial spell - no advanced race guide.
You all forget this AP came out in 2009, years before half the stuff you all incorporate into your characters. Stiggor in the last section was using +1 weapons and he was wearing +1 breastplate. He was sporting a whopping 24 AC, as 10th level ranger, CR 9 character. Had I not added "the Dealer" to the last scene you'd all plow through this game.
@Daniel - Amulet of Nat Armor from +1 to +2 is 6,000gp (2K-8K).
Good spot.
I'll forget upgrading the Amulet then.

Time for us to stop getting our butts kicked and kick their butts! If we can catch th Dealer we could toss him to the Erynies!
I was going on the vomit swarm motif... The juxtipostion on the wholesome and well... The nasty. What a kisser!
As for loot, before going back to check... Just math assistance looks like...

@Daniel - You can have my quick runner shirt, gratis.
You just got an extra 2705gp. That should get you there with the 1000 not spent on the shirt .
So
My TOTAL CASH (GOLD+PP)
is 16971
-3000 upgrade cloak
-8000 Snakeskin Tunic (+1 AC, +2Dex, +2vs poison)
-3700 for Atonement
-2000 featherstep Slippers
Leaves 271
Net gain +2AC, +1 Ranged attack, +1 saves and ignore difficult terrain
And Iomedae is cool with me.
That's if Baldwin allows this stuff.
EDIT: Thanks Gerard, but snakeskin tunic is better. With the extra gold you mentioned my leftover cash is 2,976 enough to help out with a WAND of whatever.
Okay, Loot list of what I believe we would be inclined to take. The large sized greatclubs and hide armor seem to be junk since nobody can wear them and I can't see anyone really wanting to buy them.
(4)+1 rapiers
(4) comp longbows, 14 str.
2 thunderstone
1 acid flask
4 CLW potions (2 for Euph)
4 CMW potions (1 for Dogtongue, 2 for Euph)
3 anti-toxin
9 diamonds (1000GP value total)
4 skins with weak mead (drink this)
4 studded leather
8 daggers
(4) +1 ROP
8 sunrods
137 sp
248 GPI combined the coins.
Also. Gerard,Euph, we normally drink all booze we find as treasure. ;)
Just speak up if you want something. ANyone short of potions?
First scouting party in Hagwood.
Also, I remember now... We fought the initial camp group, then advanced quickly, so as not to lose our buffs. Gerard grabbed as couple of potions as he spoke to Mark.
Archers on the big rock, swordsmen, etc... Did we lose all that? We turned the tide about 1 minute later.
I belive these were what were gained during the fight with the archers/swordsmen.
7 CLW, (5 distributed, 1 for each PC)
7 CMW, (5 distributed 1 for each pc)
2 CSW potions
3 other vials
Black Smear
Cockatrice Spit
Striped Toadstool
Gerard got the poison
So it looks like we did pass over the swords that were wielded in the battle against the swordsmen and archers. This was the fight where we first had The Bug fight with us and the Charmed Giant(next battle after this was the big fight at the tree)
Remember the bug ate most of the men it encountered in the ambush. Body and gear but he has been leaving dung presents occasionally.
Well it is a good thing we didn't dig around too much, we got enough disease in the sewers.
Does anyone recall how many in game days it's been since we hit level 9? Orsin has been using his arcane bond from his Eldritch Heritage (arcane bloodline) feat to improve his bonded longsword from a +2 to a +3 weapon. I've assumed he's been working on it during downtime every day (I made a post about starting the project way back when [I can find the post if necessary]), so I'm hoping to spend my gold mostly on that.
As for the loot, Andrea, I don't think I need anything from the gear. I'll likely spend my gold on my sword and more scrolls.
