I just had to explain to some of the players in another game that whatever my character is supposed to be good at, I will almost always fail.
Well, that's not entirely true. I haven't seen anyone kick Zileska out of bed.
On-camera at least.
Removed my post for the time being to give Zileska and Maria a chance to interact.
Oh, Zhi's all over having the Raven's agents watching Yander Merkondus. Hmmm... can't tell what the DC is supposed to be - or even what skill should be used. Sending 7 nameless agents.
It seems like an oversight in the text. I would make it DC 20 with either Sagacity or Subtlety. Will include that when I repost it.

And you just watched it happen!
I will keep my mouth shut in the future. ;P
I stand by my previous comment, you must be the most impressive roller I've ever seen!
It does make me feel useless, though. :(
I've updated the map of Yanmass with some of the locations you've heard about.
I overlooked Sara's Greater Dirty Trick feat. The man could not have pulled his pants up and attacked, so he was still entangled and missed Maria. Thus, Maria did not take any damage.
I'll post IC in the morning because... well... it was a public holiday so I slept in. Then I started playing Kingmaker. Then it was nearly midnight. I'm... not sure what happened in the interim there. :P
But I do have to say - is anyone else imagining Farkin sounding like a female version of Victor, or did watching that second Halloween episode of Critical Role where Matt was dressed as Victor get the character lodged in my head? :P
In my head she's played by a wide-eyed Kate McKinnon.
Zhi, it's a move action to draw the weapons unless you have Quick Draw, so you can only make one attack this round.
Ack. Yep. Sorry about that. Trying to do too many things at once. :)
Zileska beat 'Not Farkin' too, does she get to act? :)
Yes, sorry. Posted quickly and overlooked her result.
Question:
Is Farkin's house large enough to comfortably house all of the group?
There's one living room with a couch and one bedroom with a single bed. So long as you don't mind being a bit cramped, you could camp there.
I think we've established that most of the group doesn't have aaaaaany problem with sleeping on top of each other.
Lol at trying to charm the elf enchanter.
Yeah, probably not one of our best moments. :)
Apropos of nothing, reminder that dream shield is a level 2 mesmerist spell.
Zhi, Mel is the closest creature to you.
Yeah, well *BLEEEEEPPP*.
Map update is posted.

Anyone got a new level so I get more spell slots? :D
I realized I was looking at the map wrong. I had misinterpreted where the entrance was, so I rearranged a few of your icons to make more sense to where you would have been standing. It doesn't really affect much though. Proceed!
Still need actions from Maria and Zileska.
Hey Everyone,
My Hell's Vengeance game based on three changelings forming a coven and seeking revenge for the destruction of their clan by the Glorious Reclamation, has been one player down for a while. I recruited Brainiac to join in and his concept was so witchy and generally Brainiac-like creepy, that he promptly scared one of the remaining players away.
So if anyone wants to game with Myself, Brainiac and Wandering Wastrel (who's just as trigger happy as B) then please read the thread and feel free to make a character at level 2, but otherwise fitting the original recruitment rules.
If not, no worries!
It looks interesting but I don't wanna stretch myself too thin, I just joined two other games
I'll read it, tho, :)
Wandering Wastrel is a competent roleplayer and a good character builder, I've read a couple of his things in the past.
After reading the discussion thread for your game, Mel, I'm interested but nervous. ;) Wow, ran off a player via theme, that's an achievement. I'm interested, but I'll have to skim the gameplay thread first to make sure there's nothing there over my limit. :)
I haven't done anything gestalt yet, so I would have to bring myself up to speed on that.
Gestalt is pick two classes and wherever they cross over take the best. For example one class has 2,2,0 saves and the other has 0,0,2 then you get 2,2,2 saves at level one! :)
As to the theme... its meant to be a LE campagin, and both Wastrel and Brainiac made CE characters - who tend to jump straight to the stabbing. That might be the reasons for the problems so far. Somehow I imagine you could fit in their sweety. :)
I only made a CE character because the other players were LE and NE. I was going for the trifecta. Also tried to complete the maiden, mother, crone trio. But maybe I did go a little extreme. :P
Alice is CE, no matter what her character sheet says! :D
Conversation's reminding me of my one idea for an evil character. Neutral Evil, specifically.
Formerly a bandit lord and the rare kind - the kind that manage to live to old age. And who managed to die in his bed after illness. One snag there; the cause of death was a scythe to the chest from his protege.
Some time later, he found himself waking up in a mad druid's lair. Only now stuck in the body of a kobold in the prime of its life. Couldn't make sense of why the druid reincarnated him (seriously; this guy was starkers, completely off his rocker, it just sounded like incoherent raving) but something must've gone wonky as he'd lost almost all of the power he'd accumulated over his first lifetime.
The idea was that he'd work with the party purely out of enlightened self-interest - it gets him paid and makes people even less inclined to connect him with his past (if they even realised he'd been reincarnated and wasn't just a particularly clever and erudite kobold). But he still wants to find the b$#+~ who performed some impromptu open-heart surgery on him along with some caches of magical equipment and lore he stashed over his life to try and get his old power back. And, occasionally, that means talking to people his old gang was dealing with when he was running thing. People who may need some... convincing.
Had the idea in my back pocket ever since the days of 3.5 - was originally going to make him a Psion. If I made him for Pathfinder he'd probably be either a Psychic or an Ultimate Psionics Psion. Had some nice ideas for scenes where he'd be talking with a former contact of his gang's. Play up the "affably evil" angle a lot and banking on his old reputation when they realised who they were talking to.
A cult-leader mesmerist could do it very well too. Has some good tricks and so forth and his power would grow again nicely.
Perhaps, but I much prefer the idea of a psion/psychic who uses more conventional forms of interrogation. The kind that involve a very sharp knife and making the target constantly wonder what you’re going to do with it.
lol at Maria being gay: not one of us is straight, I feel like, whether gay bi or anything else, being a wlw is almost the expectation at this point for the party
Just five gal pals being friends and stuff, holding hands and saving the country
Also Persona roll: Subterfuge Rank 2, DC 19
Cool, so I can do sneaky operations now.

Fortunately, few of the NPCs have stated sexual orientations, and there are no shortage of pretty women for you to woo. (Well, for mostly Sara to woo I suppose. ;) )
Summarizing:
Maria: Gay
Melodie: Bi/Gay
Sara: Gay
Zhi: Bi
Zileska: Gay/Bi/Pan?
The odds of that happening by chance are ... pretty slim. I wonder if Lady Lotheed had other hiring criteria that wasn't expressed. ;)
Question for Brainiac:
Is Yanmass a large enough community to be able to purchase a magical tattoo here?
The odds of that bunch all being hired may be slim, but a lot of my friend groups are almost exclusively gays, often by accident (like, friends we thought were straight or cis people come out and it's like wow we're all gay what a strange happenstance)
But you're right, we were selected and chosen, which makes it weirder
Yes, Yanmass is a small city of almost 7000 residents. Base Value 5,720 gp; Purchase Limit 37,500 gp; Spellcasting 6th
Since that's the case, Zhi's going to spend her morning shopping for the magical tattoo that we had discussed previously. 3000 GP was the cost, correct?
Yes.
I guess Zileska's the oddball because as an actual sex worker she engages in practices for reasons of faith that have nothing to do with her own personal preferences.
But pan covers it well enough!
Did we give the wand back to the enchanter from Savories, or keep it?
I assume we gave it back - we were trying to leave on good terms afterall...
* grudgingly pulls the wand out of her cleavage and returns it *
