@Craig, looks like you need to update your Character info header

Thanks Tom!

I figured at level 4, you had more than 15 HP especially as a Barbarian. Hmm. Well, maybe not if you keep getting body parts cut off! (It's only a Flesh Wound says the Knight of Nee!!!!)

Will play Lem again but need to update my character first. Hope to do tonight. Sorry for the delay. Yard work all day!

Well if others will be higher level (not sure what Barboo and Lem will be), I am still trying to decide which character to put the S&S on. If needed, I can put on this character.

Barboo will still be level 1. We tried to sneak a quick adventure in yesterday to get her to level 2, but ran out of time. :(

ah bummer. oh well, go ahead and put the S&S on my -5 as i said in the text. lvl 4 sorc with lvl 4 animal companion should help keep her alive i hope unless it skews the levels too much, if so i'll need to put those on a different character. let me know

1. Matt Stonecypher/ MattS
2. Lem the slip
3. Unchained Rogue - 3
4. 96620-5
5. Liberty's Edge
6. No Day Job

I'm prepping for Origins and want to be sure to have Crugeon available for that. Plus, I have a druid that would be interesting to try in a PbP. I'm not as comfortable with my druid's abilities, so the slower play of online would be helpful. So.. Without further ado - Cizish Windwalker!

Sorry to be late to the party but yard work yesterday

Whoohoo! Welcome back Karen! Glad you're joining us again! Want to come do my yardwork too? 8) .. lol

Excellent the gang is all here.

Tom go ahead and roll your day job, it just speeds things at the end.

So average party level is 2.75, round to 3, guide says party of 4 plays down.

Off we go shortly.

Day Job: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (20) + 9 = 29

LOL. That will probably be the only 20 I roll the entire game!

@David, when we get to maps and combat, do you have an image of a tiger that can be used as my animal companion?

Also, do you want me to roll initiative for both of us and act separately or just use the same initiative roll for both to act at the same time?

Updated my stats after buying new armor. Then updated my character again.

Hey Mrs. B, glad you're able to join!

Not sure what the bardic knowledge means. Do I just add 1 to my knowledge checks? I have 8 on knowledge so do I put 9 when I do a check. That would help.
Thanks for the info. Seems like I learn something new each time I play.

@Karen, I believe at level 1 you could roll any untrained knowledge and add +1 as you get 1/2 your level minimum +1. Most of the time a 10 is all any untrained knowledge could get but you can actually get up to 21 (1d20+1 Untrained Knowledge) with the roll. Plus I didn't see that you rolled Survival check either so maybe you can be the one to get a 20 8)

@Karen - Yeah, just to build on what Tom is saying.

Bardic Knowledge (Ex): A bard adds half his class level (minimum 1) on all Knowledge skill checks and may make all Knowledge skill checks untrained.

So, looking at your profile the +1 is already added in for the knowledge skills listed, as they are "trained". Meaning they have at least 1 skill point assigned to them.

Knowledge (arcana) +8
Knowledge (engineering) +8
Knowledge (local) +8 (+10 on checks that deal with the local art or music scene)
Knowledge (nature) +8
Knowledge (religion) +8

Those are all +8:
+1 for Bardic Knowledge, + 3 for Intelligence (a 16 Int gives you +3), +3 for being "trained" in the class skill (which means you assigned a skill point to the knowledge and since knowledge is something bards are good at you get an extra bonus, and finally +1 for a "rank", this means putting a skill point into the skill. Characters get a certain number of skill points to assign to there skills each level.

So the other Knowledge's you can make are:

Dungeoneering (aberrations, caverns, oozes, spelunking)
Geography (lands, terrain, climate, people)
History (wars, colonies, migrations, founding of cities)
Nobility (lineages, heraldry, personalities, royalty)
Planes (the Inner Planes, the Outer Planes, the Astral Plane, the Ethereal Plane, outsiders, planar magic)

You can make these checks at +4 (+1 Bardic Knowledge and + 3 for Int)

Normally, the best you could do on these checks in a 10, as they are untrained knowledge. But since bards know a at least a little about a lot, they are allowed to roll any knowledge they want.

@Craig - not sure if your Mom has access to Hero Lab, but it might be helpful for her to know the other skills not listed on her profile she can try and the +/- bonus.

For example, Survival -1.

Which means, Tom that Barboo can't hit the DC20.

Thanks all!!
I do have Hero Lab but did not see the other knowledges that you listed. I will add them to my list as these might come in handy.

Karen in Hero Lab, go to the skills tab, and then select Additional Skills at the top in yellow. You can then add the other knowledge skills.

Hey Gang, off to pick up Grayson tomorrow. Won't be back until Sunday evening. Likely won't update until Monday am...have a good weekend.

@Barboo - Since you are a bard you are trained in at least one Perform skill, you can use this to roll a day job check which gets you extra gold. Just go ahead and post a d20 roll here add your Perform modifier.

Chronicles up soon

Alright chronicles are here:

Chronicles

Good job on the adventure! Hope you had fun...

Want to do another one after Origins is over?

Woo hoo! Another one after Origins would be great. Thanks again for the smooth GM’ing David!

LOL -- your welcome!

Yeah, Thanks for GMing David!
