Have you picked your item yet?
It was hard trying to figure it out, I was thinking a pearl of power.
I believe my math should be right, the dagger is silvered. Big assumption on the alchemical so I take a -1 damage thus don't get my strength bonus.
As for the claws, I can grow two but only use one if I have a one-handed weapon. let me know if I'm mixing something up, it's been too long since I've played so, I could use a refresher.
The way I read the power, you don't gain two attacks. You gain two claw attacks which means it applies to the claws only. Not a claw and whatever your holding. I know it sounds odd but those rules do keep balance and make sense.
The numbers I was referring to was not the dagger but the -3 on your claw attack. The way I read it with your stats, your claw power gives you two claw attacks at +2 (1d4+1/x2) as things stand. The two weapon rules don't apply because the power states specifically that you use your full attack bonus for them.
the minus -3 well -5 comes from having a dagger in my hand. All natural attacks become secondary and thus take the penalties.
Of course this changes based on how you interpret the power.
Well the power doesn't grant additional attacks it replaces your current attacks. So the natural attacks are not just primary but your only attacks.
Assuming you survive you will find a pearl of power (1st level) in any loot.
You still around Jawahar?
Yeah, sorry about that.
Work got cancelled to going to post now.
Well that was a quick response time. xD
Haha, I usually have a tab open. I meant to post last night to be honest but past out before I could.
Now I'm just trying to get all my games on track, a small new years resolution.
Work is catching up on me, will post when it slows down. Should be by the weekend.
Alrighty, post when ready to move on. :)
The move is back on and now I am sick. So my posting may be slow.
Moving things along, but fair warning I am still not set up with everything. So more winging it and less planning things out on my part until I am back to normal with all my resources back in hand.
Thanks for your patience and hopefully we can keep on running.
P.S. Sent you a PM, in case this new layout does not let you know.
The new site layout doesn't display when I get new messages, but I checked and told Gramork to message you.
Figures, this new layout does not amuse us. xP
Hey would you be willing to do me a small favour?
Could you send me a pm that contains the build rules of this game, my race and whatever kind little bonuses you granted me? I just want to fix up this character a little bit and keep all that important information all in one message.
Sadly that's packed away at the moment. So if your willing to wait I will go through the PMs, I think everything we went over was there.
Oh how could I forget the troubles of moving.
At work, but I have a moment.
Spice Trade Event Results
4 Heavy Wagons (Now owned by Jawahar)
16 Camels (Rented and must be returned or bought)
1000 gp worth of gems (Leftover from expenses and must be returned to Akorian)
Just wanted to let you know how things stand before you post anything between now and the meeting. Also wondering where your going to put your new wagons sense they can't make the trip to your place. >;)
When I get back from work I'll update my sheet and add that quick bar I usually have on my aliases.
Now I just need to think of where to place the wagons.
There was a death in the family, so if I don't post today, sorry.
If I do, I'll post my plan in the discussion thread and then post in the gameplay.
My condolences, take your time.
Thanks Omni, I appreciate it.
So I believe my first order of operations will be to return to the temple of Abadar. Here I'll see if I can pull a favor to store my wagons here, if not maybe I can make a deal at the harbor. I'll return the camels here because they're rather expensive and while Akorian reptillian crew would eat the camels, best not to spend his money. I'm going to see about maybe even making automatic deposits to Granvog.
Aside from what I will fully update this character, with a description and backstory. You can pull whatever details you want from there, I have no excuse now that 4-5 of my storyteller games got canned.
Sadly the temple does not store things like that for people. I suggest you rent space in one of the many warehouses to store them. Granted you may want to find a good one as things tend to go missing in such places if their not secure. (Yep so surprising in Okeno with it's upright folks ;P)
As for Granvog's pay outside loot. Just toss it up to background. So long as you remain "solvent" so to speak his pay is taken care of. ;)
Yeah to be honest I was bummed about the forgotten realms game going under. Certain things aside it was my current favorite out of his games I was in. x)
Yeah same, actually. A chance to play in the realms again, there are a few games I would of traded to save that one.
Alright, I'll keep to your guidelines. Should makes things drag on less, I'm going to make a quick post and from there return the camels search for a warehouse to store the wagons untill i have my own.
You trusting the mercs with the wagons and stuff or going with them?
Well technically they're empty now, just wagons and the camels. But yes I will journey with as I have little other choice.
Oh dice gods, I beseech thy. I merely pointed out that I must return these surprisingly expensive camels, lest a drunken roving barbarian punches one in the face.
I beg for a prosperous harvest, have mercy on me.
For the record the half orc is a fighter not a barbarian, and your no thief sidekick.
Seems the boards are being nutty again. Didn't show your last post. I'll have something up shortly.
No bonus points for the Conan reference? Damn, can I be his willy roguishly charming sidekick at least?
If you want to play second fiddle to him, that's on you. But it may hinder you plans in no small way. ;)
Maybe once I become a sorcerer king, he needs to save some woman to become king by his own hand or something?
Or so the story goes ;).
So, how do you feel about the current cold war with the announcement of PF2.0?
I haven't looked into PF 2 yet. Hopefully they don't make to many changes. But what do you mean Cold War?
It all has to do with the coming edition war, also a play on flame war.
Ok do you mean between WotC and PF or PF and PF 2?
Cause if it's WotC then buddy they lost that war like the nazi's in WW2. 5e is like screaming "I take it back" after they realized that pissing off the community and trying to shove something down their throats in the pursuit of profits, instead of good story telling was not going to work on a massive scale.
Now if your talking about PF then I think they have shown themselves to be smart enough not to make the same mistakes that caused their success to begin with.
As you can see my anger burns brightly for hamfisted story telling to explain system changes. Don't get me rolling. xP
Trust me, I lived in the trenchs of 4e. That was lost time, I mean between Pathfinder 1e and now pathfinder 2e. From what I've seen it looks like paizo is looking to take aspects from both 5e and 4e. I'm not looking forward to that, it gives me some bad déjà vu.
We can go into, I've lived it and I understand the ire it creates.
Thanks for catching that, I would like to say it has been a long day but that'd make me a liar.

Really have they learned nothing! Faster is not always better, simple does not equal good. This is RPG table top and pbp format for heaven's sake. Stop trying to turn it into a video game minus the eye candy and voice overs. Give me in depth lore and wonderful stories or so help me I will see you burn in the eternal inferno where 4e lives along with the broken souls of investors whining for their lost profits. It took all of five minutes for me to come to grips with how bad 4e was, it took WotC a decade and major loses to their business and community base.
Pathfinder don't forget your roots. You did the right thing, the smart thing. Your entire existence is based off WotC screw up. Show the wisdom of your beginnings or you risk following the same path.
HEED MY WORDS!
P.S. You happy now Jawahar, people are giving me strange looks after I said that part in caps out loud.
Sorry for the delay, my internet suddenly died. Yes my 4e wrath is strong indeed. ;P
Haha, it was a pleasure to burn. Hey I don't blame you, I was coerced into playing it and it built up a lifetime of resentment towards my brother.
In case it got lost in the discussion blast, their was a gameplay post.
I blame the site, I don't remember seeing a message.
Your reward.
1000 gold coins
Akorian's Jewel Blade if you accept it (Masterwork Wakizashi, grants a +2 to Diplomacy and Intimidate against those that know Akorian or his reputation)
Oh yeah one last thing, once you leave Akorian's ship. You level up. :)
Woot. Time to level up. However I have two questions on that. Do you allow a once per level change? Ie: swapping a skill rank or spell known,etc. And is health max or half+1?
HP is half +1 or roll.
You can change one spell known at level up and one skill rank. What skills are you thinking of changing?
I'll take the half +1 one for this level.
I don't think I'm going to change the skill for this level, I may change my spell since you gave me a wand of mages armor.
Anyways, I'll quickly change my health and then post in the game thread.
At this point, I think Jawahar is going to find an apothecary, afterward walk about to city looking for rumors or an abandoned warehouse that he can try to claim as his own.
If you want to do a timeskip or roll for encounters. That's fine, i need to make diplomacy checks anyways for rumormongering.
