As always, PLEASE let me know if my math's off. I also added the Smart Armor and Starfall Spade to my gear, but I'm not sure how much other loot we've actually divvied yet.

First thing I do when we get a breather is enchant the Smart Armor to shore it up.

I will be out of town on a camping trip from 4/10 through 4/17. I will be unable to post until the following Monday.

Enjoy your camping time GM! Be careful with the giant spidres :)

It's been a busy week for me. I'll try to get a post up tomorrow morning.

Take all the time you need, DM!

Heh, I like how some of these scenes are just "yeah, you're too UB3R for these n00bs, moving on!"

Well we are...

Although I do like the feeling we became real heroes when we have easy combat against goons, the speed up is almost needed on such long adventures.

This has been running for 4 years already day after day, it is just epic if you think about it.

It will be four years next month!

This adventure features a lot of extra combats against weak foes. It would take months for us to play them out with little doubt as to your success, so I'm just hand-waving the easier ones.

I always approve of this. They only serve to make us expend resources...

Are we unconfused now?

I think so...

Yes, you were only confused as long as the kyton was screaming.

Short on time today, I will update tomorrow.

Had a busy few days, I'll have more time to post tomorrow morning. :)

I'll be out of town from Saturday 5/29 through Sunday 6/6. Posting will be sporadic until I return.

HoohoohooBOY! I've been waitin' for this fight THE ENTIRE CAMPAIGN! XD

And that time is finally here :)

What's the layout of the battlefield? I presume the enemies are close to each other in some way, but how close? The map isn't showing me any characters.

I think we are playing this "theatre of the mind".

Brainiac is on well deserved holidays, so you won't get an answer soon. Perhaps you want to post on assumptions.

My assumption was the enemies could be reached with a move action, then full action attacks there on :P

It is a bit more tricky for spellcasting, specially area spells, but we are mostly glasscannons, strike fast and hard or suffer, so I guess our tactics would not change much with a map anyway, perhaps some flanking opportunities for Fifteen's sneak attack.

Well I have some of the Cleave line of feats, so it can be helpful for me if foes are adjacent.

You can cleave the redhead and the kyton if you move past Zaidow, who is about 15 feet in front of them.

FOREVER SHINY AND CHROME!

Yay! Book 6 here we are! Those are major words. Thanks DM Brainiac, and everyone else!

Level 15 stats coming soon.

~~~~~~

We had also discussed in the past converting Molly's +1 distance musket into something like this (pistol of the infinite sky). She would gain infinite ammo, no misfires, and an additional +4.

If she takes the time now, would she be able to do that?

Yes, you can upgrade the pistol.

Yes, you can upgrade the pistol.

It would still be a musket, though, right? She's a Musket Master so that's kind of important. :)

Yes, sorry, meant to say musket.

Yes, you can upgrade the pistol.

Say'ri says 'thank you'. :)

"All hail Kaska, the Black Sovereign of Numeria!"

WHA....? HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Hi everyone! I've been curious to see how things have been going so I popped in to take a look and I found that!

Incredible! This is the best, most perfect case of failing upward I've ever seen (Well, outside of politics and business).

Anyway, I just wanted to drop a note to say hi, that I'm glad things are still cruising merrily along, and that Kaska now being the Black Sovereign is the most amusing thing that's happened to me all week.

Have fun, take care, and I'll see you all around.

It was a great moment and highlight of this campaign! All the best for our flexible GM that made it work! :)

Happy to see you are doing well Kaska! Have fun and health you too!

It was a great moment and highlight of this campaign! All the best for our flexible GM that made it work! :)

Brainiac is awesome like that. One of my characters has married Abrogail Thrune and born her son, the new heir to the throne of Cheliax!

HABAWHAT?!

Pfht! Please ...

My monk is about to become queen of Korvosa.

...

If she can just hit the bloody woman!

Those are awesome stories :)

If we do survive this I think I will look for Holg to go fight to the Worldwound with Fireday, that is, if his android does not become the AI that replaces Unity, hiz hiz. Or perhaps he will look back for Viv, who knows!

What about Molly and Fifteen, are you planning to prowl Numeria with a new tribe of little children? :D

Only if Fifteen really wants some. Molly has no interest in having children - too much work, you know. But if Fifteen had her heart set on having some, the halfling would oblige. After strongly recommending adoption first, of course. ;)

Pfht! Please ...

My monk is about to become queen of Korvosa.

The fact that she's going to owe her throne to Vox is just gonna eat her up inside... :)

---------------------------------------
Regarding kids - Fifteen doesn't expect to procreate since Androids don't. So Molly is safe on that front. Besides kids are the worst. They leave you, run off to the Shackles, become pirate queens, get killed and scare you most of the way to death, then come back and try to marry unsuitable women. And you have to be supportive or else you're the bad guy!

I hope someone thought to send for Gelati in Torch. Kaska will be needing proper decorations for that throne.

Perks of Being a Sovereign

But honestly her tastes are more simple. Not that she won't look around at other options first, but they'll probably end up married.

Is everyone levelled up yet?

Molly's leveled up and sporting her improved magical boomstick. :)

Do we have a loot split?

I am very behind in the update of the treasure sheet (Holg's profile has links to the last gear found but I have yet to insert them into the table).

I hope to have that during this week at some point.

I finally found the time to input all the items found and prices into the treasure sheet. Please, have a look and claim the items you wish, there are some very cool things like a null blade.

If an item has blank cells for K and L columns, assume no one else wants it and pick it up. I only move the name of the claimer from K to L when I can confirm they have written down the item in their profile.

From my initial numbers, we will have more than 50,000 gp each for purchases. This time I will not make the effort to assign items. If you do not make your own picks, you will end with a weaker character, not profiting the wealth offered by the adventure.

You might also wish to check the previous treasure share in case you are lagging behind in equipment.

I will do a final recount and sell after the weekend. Anything not claimed by then will be cashed into coin. We will know the final share by then.

Enjoy the nice goodies kindly provided by the Technique League and cia! :)
