How many days left to the election? I say we do half of the remaining time and then track down the ring. That should clear us up to finish off the election and then get back to the Lieutenant.


8 days. Which divinations are you casting Zil?


ADVENTURE PATH COMPLETE

The aforementioned divination and prognostication to find out "Will Melodie and Zhi's child be born without complications or health issues?" and the appropriate variants and follow-ups of that. Divination is the early-warning system because if it works it will tell me that something is wrong this week and we should take immediate steps. Prognostication is the long-term version that will tell me something about whether the child will be successfully born, whether it will have any life-threatening health issues, etc. Or cryptic hints about it not being what we expect.

Detect life miiight let me make sure that the baby is still alive and kicking and that it's not unexpected twins (or more...), depending on whether you interpret the baby as being a separate life from the mother's, or when in the pregnancy that occurs, or if it only counts as a separate entity once it's born. (I am emphatically not opening the can of worms about "life begins at..." so just... whatever you decide.)

I think there's also a spell that will enumerate how many things are in a container, which might alternatively work, but I can't remember it off the top of my head.


Got it. I will consider the spells and post in the morning when I have more time.

Lets do 4 days campaigning then, then chase down the ring, then finish off. Sound good?

Three days is enough to finish the book! Hooray!

Ok, Brainiac, the question has been raised regarding how much of Mel's gold Zhi is going to spend.

So how much will leather bondage gear cost? Considering the far majority of it will be the labor since there's very little actual materials. ;)

If you need something more specific, I'll PM you a link. :)


RETIRED - happily married and ruling Taldor.

I'm happy to pay for 'masterwork' gear if it makes a difference. ;)


Let's just say 30 gp and leave it at that. :)

Are we just waiting on Maria to post her persona rolls?


I was waiting to see if you wanted to do anything else before investigating the last lead.


RETIRED - happily married and ruling Taldor.

Last lead I think.

Also - Zhi sweetie, roll some will saves for me. DC26 with a -4 penalty on your save, if you can pass 6 in a row then you're off the hook. :)

*raises an eyebrow*

I imagine the poor girl doesn't have her cloak on? Yeah, that's what I thought. Mind-Affecting? Of course it is. ;P

Will Save DC 26: 1d20 + 12 - 4 ⇒ (13) + 12 - 4 = 21
Will Save DC 26: 1d20 + 12 - 4 ⇒ (15) + 12 - 4 = 23
Will Save DC 26: 1d20 + 12 - 4 ⇒ (6) + 12 - 4 = 14
Will Save DC 26: 1d20 + 12 - 4 ⇒ (10) + 12 - 4 = 18
Will Save DC 26: 1d20 + 12 - 4 ⇒ (15) + 12 - 4 = 23
Will Save DC 26: 1d20 + 12 - 4 ⇒ (2) + 12 - 4 = 10

*waits for the hammer to fall (or the riding crop as the case may be).*


Okay, short on time today but I will post tomorrow morning.


RETIRED - happily married and ruling Taldor.

Well since you failed only the first one matters... :D

(And this is entirely your own fault for not following the rules!)


Game Concluded

Did you really think Zhi would follow the rules? Really? ;) ;P

Hey all sorry for disappearing, the wife and i are house/horsesitting for my MIL and we have been WAY busier than I was expecting. I'll try to get a post out tonight but if i can't i'll do so in the morning.


Game Concluded

I thought about this post for a while before sitting down to write it, but decided that I needed to do it.

I want to apologize to Sara/Lobster regarding the way the interaction between the group and the Crowntop Coup went. My intent was simply to move the story forward and complete the next objective on the list. It was not to step on toes or hog the spotlight. However, someone much wiser than me pointed out that I was being ignorant of how other people might feel.

This was a perfect place for Sara to shine and I jumped right in front of her. I'm sorry for that. :(

I'll try to be more considerate in the future. Along those lines, if I'm doing stupid stuff like that in the future, feel free to call me on it.


Sara may still conclude her interactions with the birds in the manner of her choosing before we move on.


RETIRED - happily married and ruling Taldor.

Are people ok? Been nearly two weeks... Mel worries about team moral you see...

Thanks Zhi, I appreciate that. I'll admit, I was looking forward to Disney Princess-ing my way through all these small animals, but the timing just sucked, not upset about it.

Things should settle back to normal shortly, back home and done with the horses and now I just need to catch up in all my games.


ADVENTURE PATH COMPLETE

I don't have any contributions at the moment. Don't mind me.


We are about to wrap up this slower investigation phase. The action will pick up again soon!


ADVENTURE PATH COMPLETE

It's fiiiiine I just have nothing to contribute right now but want to make sure that people know that I'm still here

Same here. I just can't think of what Maria could do to contribute and I'm also getting somewhat burnt out on Pathfinder as a whole. It's the only RPG I've been able to properly play for what must be more than a decade by now. I'll press on with this game and the two other campaigns I'm in, but I'm certainly not gonna be looking for any new ones. It may just be a while before my writing picks up in quality again.


It's all good. Thanks for checking in at least! I will post in the morning. We are about 2/3 of the way through this adventure, then there is just one more to go afterwards!


Game Concluded

Sorry about no post today. I'll get one out tomorrow morning.


RETIRED - happily married and ruling Taldor.

Can I just say thank you to everyone for being such good sports and putting up with the election? I know it would have been much faster to ignore it, but I'm really glad I got a chance to use all my agents and have some fun with it - even if Sara is the candidate!

So thanks all :)


I will need a map for the next encounter, so I will update in the morning.


I've edited my previous post. Everybody may act now!

Well, looks like the Inspiration was well-spent there on the Reflex Save. Wonder if I should spend a bit more on the attack roll. Bit reluctant to do so since I don't want to spend a quarter of my daily Inspiration points all in the one turn.


Just need Zileska's actions now.


Just need Zileska's actions.


Game Concluded

And the rest of the evening will be spent perusing the 2.0 Core Rulebook that appeared on my doorstep this morning courtesy of the US Postal Service. :) :)

Mmmm... I love that smell. :)


I have the first book of Age of Ashes. Just saying. :)


Game Concluded

So, have you decided whether you're going to run it or not?


I'm not sure yet. Probably? I will get back to you in a couple of weeks. :)


ADVENTURE PATH COMPLETE

I wish there were a complete DARK SUN campaign so I could get you to run that!


I do love me some Dark Sun. Once upon a time, I had grand ambitions to convert several of the 2nd Ed modules to Pathfinder and run a game. Alas, I no longer have that sort of free time.


ADVENTURE PATH COMPLETE

I played a short-lasting DS game on the forums that was terrrrible - I played a water cleric who couldn’t create water because the DM thought that it made things too easy.

If yer character is built to use a first-level spell to solve resource problems and the DM won’t allow it, but is fine with a half-giant smash monster to solve the problem “combat,” you have some serious inequities.

Anyway I’m currently trying to get the license from WotC to do the 5th edition version of DARK SUN, we’ll see if it pans out.


Melodie's turn in the initiative isn't up yet but I will factor her action in after the enemies go. Still need actions from Sara and Zileska.


RETIRED - happily married and ruling Taldor.

Sorry - missed that. :)


Sara, are you delaying for now? If not you may act after Zhi casts haste.


Female Human Fighter (Cad) 13, Brawler 2 | HP: 55/185| AC: 19/17 (11 T, 17 F)| CMB: +19/+28, CMD: 28| F: +19, R: +12, W: +7| Init: +7| Perc: +17, SM +12, Dip +45, Intim +39| Speed 35ft| Martial Flexibility 3/4, Serpentine Tattoo 3/3, Beast Form 2 (Lion) 1/1, Terrible Cost 5/5| Active Conditions: N/A

The plan is to cast haste and then invisibilty on me and then I rush in and grab the arbiter, yeah? At the very least, Sara'll delay to see the results of Melodie's spell; if it's held successfully, she'll grab the modron and get gone.


Okay, got it. Forgot the invisibility part. Zileska, are you acting or delaying as well?


Need Sara's actions for this round.


RETIRED - happily married and ruling Taldor.

Sorry - phone posting makes checking hard but Braniac are you including the -4 to hit from Mel's hypnotic stare?


Yes, they have been rolling high. Can you stare at multiple foes?


RETIRED - happily married and ruling Taldor.

Just 1 i tjink... need to check if theres a feat that lets me fet more than one at a time....
