All, once again I will be making my way to Italy tomorrow. I will be there, without internet (because I'm too cheap to pay around $20/day), until August 7th. Please feel free to DMPC Yang to move the story along in my absence.
The wand is something Yang would like. As for the recipes and embalming tools, I think eventually Yang would just sell them. While he may find them interesting, I don't intend on taking any alchemist levels.
Happy trails, Bryan!
I messaged Randall and Jelloarm to see if they're still around and into continuing, so hopefully they're still around.
Do you guys have anything else you'd like to go about in the Ossuary? The Shattered Star player's guide is out now- if anyone wants to re-evaluate and change things about their character let me know and I'm sure it'll be fine. I'll wait until I have the PDF for the next adventure and some prep work done before really diving in, though.
I will be moving later in the month, so I may drop off again briefly.
So we're gonna go with Shattered Star next? That's awesome!
How should we handle our characters, are we staying second level?
Are we going to travel to Magnimar in game or will we have to retcon our backgrounds? Should we choose traits?
Sorry for bombarding you with questions that you probably don't answers for yet. If you can't tell, I'm sort of excited..
Well, I want to read the PDF first at least and figure out how to edit it into pbp shape. And see if it's something I want to spend a year DMing.
The plan would be to stay second level, perhaps recruit one or two more players. We spent so much time on this game, I don't want to just hit reset on you all- I'd rather figure a way that the Pathfinders come looking to recruit you. We could use traits and just file off the more Magnimar specific stuff.
Ooooh! Didn't realize the Shattered Star player's guide was out yet. Will definitely take a look.
Can't think of anything else to check out in the Ossuary if the entire place has been explored either by us or Wasp's group. Sister Mara's willing to check out with the Pharasmans and leave this crazy city. She's a Varisian and used to traveling.
Maybe the orb we found in the feathered eye statue could be some type of Macguffin for Shattered Star?
Any word back from Jelloarm?
I've sent him a message but haven't heard back from him.
Ah bummer. Hopefully he's just on hiatus from the boards for a bit.
So, it looks like the upcoming Varisia book is going to double as an extended Shattered Star players guide. Link.
I guess $8 for the pdf isn't too bad. The player's guide did seem a little on the skimpy side to me, but maybe that's because I already had a lot of that info from other books.
I guess Sister Mara isn't big on discussing her religion. :-P
Sorry! I'm really tied up with work this week, trying to meet a big deadline today (which I should be working on instead of quickly checking the boards, but I need a break!). I should have a post up this evening or tomorrow. Mara's just trying to think how to best frame her response.
Ha ha, I was just goofing around. Don't get into trouble with the boss man/lady on our account!! :-)
So Jelloarm has gotten back to me that he won't be able to play anymore because of his new job. So, once I've got the adventure PDF and some time on my hands, I may look for one or two more PCs.
Ah that sucks, I liked roleplaying with him. Real life happens though.
On another negative note, it looks like the PDF got pushed back a week.
Just got my shipped email a little while ago- I'll give it a read when I can. Looks like another giant dungeon, which may or may not be a problem.
So my plan: once you guys have divided and sold or kept your loot and we've wrapped up this last bit with the Cryptsmistress I'll see if the remaining players I've got from my Tatters of the King CoC pbp are interested in joining up and then we'll go forward. I kind of want to check out the Varisia player's companion for that Duskwarden role as well and spend some time (for reals this time) putting maps together for our use and maybe trimming some encounters down.
Okay here is the list of loot again. Kua will hold on to the two potions, an alchemists fire and the tanglefoot bag. If anyone else in the group wants to use them, feel free, I just want to pull them from the sell pile. Yang has dibs on the Bone Wand.
Assuming we sell for half, prices are below. If anyone wants to claim something before liquidation, go for it.
2 Acid flasks - 10 gp
1 Alchemist's Fire flask - 20 gp
2 Smokesticks - 20 gp
2 Thunderstones - 30 gp
Masterwork Studded Leather Armor - 87 Gp
+1 spear - 1,001 Gp
Masterwork Embalming Tools (as artisans tools?) - 27 gp
Recipe Book- contains Alchemist extract recipes - ??
Scrolls of Delay Poison x 2 150 gp

Sounds good. I've been really excited for the Varisia guide to see if anything will be relevant for Kua. Didn't know there was anything about Duskwardens though! C'mon flgs..
Honestly, your ranger level pretty well encompasses what the guide has. It's a "role" not an archetype, so no new abilities just advice on kitting out your character.
The PDF looks really nice; I may buy the physical copy for my players.
And is everyone else still around?
Okay, selling loot at the assumed price gives the four of us 336.25 gp each
Add in the 450GP of gold and goods from the last two crypts and we're at 448GP 7SP 5CP total each.
Ha ha, I forgot that the first adventure in this AP is written by Greg Vaughan. We're gonna need that extra level to survive. :-P

Not sure if I want to go through with this, but would like to bounce the idea off of you. Would it be cool if I changed Kua to straight ranger, went with two weapon fighting and worked toward the thunder and fang feat in the new Varisia book? Also, I would hope to use my great axe instead of the earth breaker. Sort of a mix between Kua's orc and shoanti heritage.
Another question, I haven't gotten to use Kua's favored enemy yet. Is aberration still relevant?

I don't have a problem with that; anyone else that wants to re-spec between the end of Godsmouth and the start of Shattered Star can do so as well.
Aberration will be helpful later on in the Path, I'm told, but at the beginning not as much. According to the almighty campaign guide, vermin, humanoid and fey are good low-level choices. I think aberration fits well with the Duskwarden background, but vermin or even humanoid can also work.
I'm going to start up a discussion thread for the Shattered Star game soon and I'll post a link here.
And speak of the devil, here it is.

I'm good with selling everything that was sold. Thank you for dealing with the treasure disposal and loot allocation!
