Rhuul, please choose one of these.
Lingering Resonance: A recent encounter with an enemy spellcaster left your body strangely receptive to spell effects. At the beginning of a scenario, you may announce that you are using this boon. The next time that you fail a saving throw against any spell or spell-like ability from an enemy spellcaster, have your GM write the name of the spell below. Choose one of the following benefits, and cross the other off your Chronicle sheet.
-
• When you cast the listed spell, you may increase the DC of the saving throw by 2.
• When you roll a saving throw against the listed spell, you gain a +4 bonus on the save.
-
You may use this bonus once for free, after which you should check the box below; each additional use of the selected benefit costs 1 Prestige Point.
Long Distance Support: You heard the Decemvirate’s call to arms as the Fifth Crusade began, but for whatever reason the society did not send you to the front lines immediately. You may nonetheless send extra supplies to aid your fellow Pathfinders. At the end of any scenario that does not take place in Mendev or the Worldwound, you may choose to spend 1 Prestige Point to send a cache of necessary supplies north to aid the war effort. On a line below, have your GM record where the scenario took place and initial the entry. Upon filling all five lines, you gain two benefits.
First, you gain a Mendevian Commendation for your tireless efforts to supply the crusade. A Mendevian Commendation grants you a cumulative +1 bonus on Charisma-based skill checks to influence Mendevian Crusaders (maximum +3).
Second, as a swift action while fighting a creature with the demon subtype or bearing an unholy symbol of a demon lord, you may grant all allies that you can see within 60 feet a +2 circumstance bonus on attack rolls, damage rolls, and saving throws against those creatures for one minute. When you use this second ability, cross it off your Chronicle sheet.
Mendevian Weapon Training: Queen Galfrey of Mendev understands both that poorly equipped crusaders are of little use to the ongoing war against demonkind and that an inadequately trained crusader cannot make effective use of good equipment. As a result, those who dedicate themselves to the Fifth Crusade have access to training and equipment that might not otherwise be available. When you would be permitted a Day Job check, you may instead spend 4 Prestige Points to receive intensive training with a specific weapon or suit of armor. You receive a masterwork version of the weapon or armor, and you gain proficiency in that specific weapon or armor (but not others of its type). If you are already proficient with the selected armor or weapon, you instead gain a +2 bonus to CMD against disarm and sunder combat maneuvers targeting the chosen item.
Choose the weapon or armor from the following list: breastplate, glaive, heavy shield, or longsword.
Moment of Glory: Whether it is by fate, fortune, or circumstance, you are able to tap into a hidden reserve of power at just the right moment to perform a truly extraordinary feat. By activating this boon as a free action, you become a mythic character (1st mythic tier) for 3 rounds. If you fall unconscious due to hit point loss during this time, you automatically stabilize without needing to attempt a Constitution check. In addition, once before this effect ends, you may use the surge mythic ability to increase any d20 roll you just made by rolling 1d6 and adding it to the result. Using the surge is an immediate action taken after the result of the original roll is revealed. This can change the outcome of the roll.
-
When you use this boon, cross it off your Chronicle sheet; however, anytime you successfully complete (earning the maximum possible number of Prestige Points) a scenario that using the “hard mode” option, you may have the GM sign this boon. You may use this boon one additional time for each such signature you receive.

wow.
Any suggestions here? Breastplate would be nice for better AC, but then again, spell failure comes up.
Moment of Glory sounds like a "get out of trouble" card - at least the auto stabilise is nice if there is not a TPK.
I think I'm tending to boon 2 though, that bonus to charisma checks may be pretty neat, and being silver crusade faction... it seems appropriate.
Any suggestions from others?

I went with Mendevian Weapon Training, but then I realized after I read further just how little it would really benefit any character I have that might even be interested. If Full Plate was on the list I'd be all over it. Otherwise it's kind of Meh in my opinion, but then I have so many 1 use boons, I just don't even bother with them anymore.
I have a character in another game that just used their first one a week ago or so and he's had it for around a year.

I'll go with boon 2.
I'm also up for part 2!
Can I spent one PP on my long distance support boon straight away?
You can. Just let me know if you need me to change it on your Chronicle sheet.
Otherwise, please (everyone) let me know when you are ready to start part 2. Do you want 1 more player? I try to stick with a max of 6 if I can help it.
Kryssa - 3
Maldoc - 3
Rhuul - 1
Seraphta - 1
Umaro - 2
10 / 5 = Subtier 2

It wasn't that difficult, but then, most really are not. The bad thing is that the Season 5 Guide sort of removed the option to play up, which leaves a lot of scenarios just not very challenging. That, and I don't think the author of this one realized that the Spiked Chain is no longer a Reach weapon, (ie worth having in any way), so it sort of cut her out of a lot of actual threat potential.

Question about costs:
A dwarven waraxe costs 30gp.
A cold iron dwarven war axe costs 60gp (twice normal)
A masterwork dwarven war axe costs 330gp (300 for masterwork, plus 30 for DWA)
How much does a masterwork cold iron dwarven waraxe cost
360gp - (twice base cost) +300 for masterwork or
660gp - twice (basecost +300 for masterwork).

I think Umaro is good on stuff. Can't think of anything right now that he'd need.
@Kyrssa: Yeah I'm excited for the ACG to be coming out. I got a few characters working off the playtest info (thought about making umaro here a bloodrager but it didn't stick). Can't wait for the full book to come out.

Im already annoyed with the Warpriest. But I figure that for PbP, you can keep using the playtest version in the existing game if you want. Doesnt make sense to alter it in the middle, and in a table top game, you wouldnt stop and rebuild.
However, keep in mind season 6 is comming, with 5 (semi new) Factions and limited rebuilds.

In addition to buying a MW Longspear (cold iron), I bought a Wand of Cure Light Wounds for 2 PP.
I'm ready to go.
The only other thing I wanted to mention was my Seize the Initiative ability. Can we change it in initiative to do 2d20? After I've used it my 5x a day, I'll just use the first roll. I can't think of any other way to do it that wouldn't slow things down quite a bit.
Thanks for running a great show!
