DM B's PbP Game Day 3: Decline of Glory (1-7) (Inactive)

Game Master Beckett

The rain lets up for a little, yet its cold sourness remains and the overcast sky shows no effort towards cheering the mood. When Osprey assigned you this venture to Taldor’s wine country, he said the region was pleasant. As usual, his words were misleading. The coast was pleasant, the mires surrounding the Railford Distillery are not.

“This mission is easy,” he said, “All you need to do is travel to Railford, find the son of Iodon Railford and convince him to let the Pathfinders use part of his distillery as a lodge. We have finances, we can protect him, and if nothing else, we can help him honor the work of his father, who afterall, was one of us.”

The path to Railford is hardly an easy one to follow, especially after the spring thaw waters turn the thick clay soil to slough. Only a few crudely scarred trees denote the secluded route as it winds through the syrupy mire of flooded vineyards and vague remnants of rotten trellis with grapevines choked out by prevasive briars and heavy blankets of peat.

Yoshi lifts one sodden foot and puts it down, then the next.

"I am thinking Osprey-san was hopeful in his outlook of this land." says the Tian man.

"Do they really grow grapes here, or just mud?"

I like it. Hisao comments as he keeps pace with the monk. Easy to hide in such places

Tuka says :This mud is just a uncorfortable decoration... IF ... we don´t have to move quickly ... . But anybody can see she is not pleased or unaccustomed to this kind of conditions.
But I should keep in mind Osprey´s definition of pleasant...

"I must have a word with Osprey-san about his bright career in real estate. Blech." Mirima trudges alongside the party, cleaning her hot-weather outfit every so often with a gesture of her hand and a drawing forth of arcane energy.

"Are we there yet? Umph." In her lack of attentiveness, the lithe elf bumps most unceremoniously into the tall Tian man. "Yoshi"

"Oh, hey, by the way, you look healthy as ever. Glad that disease didn't stick on ya. I'd hate to have had to attend your funeral so soon after meeting you."

A step. Then another. "Are we there yet?"

Yoshi looks seriously at Mirima. "Thank you." then up at the sky. "You won't get to wear your new outfit." he adds, somewhat disappointed.

Parumartish shrugs. "I have come to expect that many of our Venture-Captains will say whatever they believe will entice us to accept a mission."

"And it seems to work. Every time." muses Yoshi.

"The last venture captain I met was dead." he adds with wry amusement.

"And I thought that new outfit I bought on our trip would be perfect for the occasion! Look at me! I'm soaked." The elf complains, to add to the myriad of complaints she's filed verbally since the rain started. Only her newly bought cloak saves her from being truly indecent before the group.

"Can you believe that Osprey? Shooing us out so fast, I didn't even get a chance to paint our portrait on his wall to commemorate this soon to be memorable mission." Mirima pauses a moment, and draws forth yet more arcane energy to dry herself and clear off yet more mud. She looks up at the unceasing rain sullenly. "Are we there yet?"

I had swapped the starter outfits and tossed the travelers outfit for the much cooler hot-weather outfit before this journey. Go figure.

Yoshi nods to the elf.

I wonder if all elves complain as much. Or about anything other than their clothes?

"I will buy you a new outfit in Railford. I may get myself one too. This land is so cold."

Dot

-Posted with Wayfinder

Mirima stares at the suddenly appearing dot warily, and tries to wipe it off with prestidigitation.

"Are there any threats we should watch out for?" Davor asks as he looks a little bored.

Yoshi looks on with concern.

"If you are seeing dots Mirima-san, we should take a rest. Fatigue has killed as many as Orcs."

Ok, well it looks like we have everyone, and no answer from the other player that wanted in, so I'll go ahead and start soon.

The rain starts again and all darkens. The creepers and overgrowth do little to help the situation, blocking some of the rain but casting strange twisting shadows. Markers become more difficult to see.

As you travel, it becomes clear that the once famous vineyards that once held Railford up have fallen into disuse. Both a change in climate and a major river flooding years back altered it's normal path, and turned thee once fertile lands into a marsh. Killing most of the vines and ruining the land, it forced the Railford Winery to close, but with the death of the elder Railford, the younger one inherited the land and in an attempt to dig both himself and his town out of the proverbial muck, converted the old winery into a whiskey distillery.

But as you come closer to the town, you first notice a group of Taldan soldiers camping off to the side. Within your sight, you make out another camp to your left, and then checking, you see a third to your right, and quickly suspect that for some reason, the Taldan Phalanx has begun to surround the town, though has not acted yet.

Sending a scout up, you overhear that they are under the command of one Lieutenant Grald Kretchmoor, and the soldiers are expecting to march on the two in a few days. Some seem to indicate that "Railford's not going to find it". Others seem to just want to attack and get it over with, while others grumble about being here at all.

Using the rain and darkness to your advantage, you manage to easily avoid detection, (and also the guard dogs the soldiers employ), begin to travel closer to the town, just a few miles more.

Atop a hillock stand half a dozen small stone cottages surrounding a tall brick and timber building topped with a massive tin-covered water drum. A sign over its looming doors reads "Railford Distillery est. 4693". From a squat brick building sharing an adjoining wall with the distillery rises a long cylindrical chimney. A low, moss-covered cobblestone wall surrounds the entire property. Walking into town, you see that it seems abandon. All of the windows are shut, and many seem either vacant or some boarded up.

"Nobody home?" nodes Yoshi, knocking an old board aside.

"I wonder if they know of the Taldan soldiers and have fled?"

He looks around for any sign of life.

perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14

Suddenly, as you begin to knock on a few doors, or peek inside shuttered windows, something come flying out form on of the buildngs, hitting Yoshi square in the face. Caught by surprise, he is completely blinded for a moment, wiping off tomato juice, and worse, old tomato juice, from his face.

"We told ya, get out of here, scum. We are not jus' gonna lay down and let you take our homes. Get out!"

Probably going to need some Diplomacy checks.

Yoshi looks surprised.
"You are maybe mistaking me for someone from Taldor? I wear no knights armour. What is going on here?" asks Yoshi.

aid another diplomacy: 1d20 - 2 ⇒ (20) - 2 = 18

Mirima jumps in to Yoshi's defense. "Hey now! Is that your way of treating guests?" Now what was it we're here for? Oh yeah.

"We're on your side! That is, if you're on Railford's side..."

If anyone's taking the reins, this is an assist. Else, this is it.
Diplomacy: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

Buawahahaha

Yes, we do not have anything to do with the soldiers. We had to tramp through mud to avoid them to get here. We just wish to meet with Iodon Railford

Diplomacy aid or lead: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24

Mirima hears Hisao's strangely convincing words, and looks over at the smooth walking, smooth talking ninja. "You almost had me believing you! Oh, wait, that is what we did!" The elf wizard evokes a bit more arcane magic, to clean herself and the rest of the party up.

Davor jolted in surprise as Yoshi was struck and draws his sword ready for an attack, but relaxes for a moment.

"We are not here to harm you. We are here to speak with Iodon Railford." Davor stats, getting right to the point as he tried to assist Hisao

Diplomacy Aid: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (1) - 1 = 0

pfft, well I've only ever seen that happen a few times. Clearly Davor is pissed that someone on the team got smacked with something and he hasn't stopped gritting his teeth.

Tuka looks surprised when the tomato hits Yoshi, and looks around to search for an ambush.

The tossing of garbage, stones, and whatever else stops, and after a few minutes, a handful of villagers come out, believing you that you are not Taldan soldiers.

Most that remain are retired soldiers or town guards, and the explain that they plan on fighting back unto the end, though you know that with their meager forces, just don't stand a chance against the larger and more experienced soldiers camped around the town. The speaker for the townsfolk is a grizzled Andoren mercenary named Dalard Fritch.

"We are sorry, folks, but you've come at a bad time. We are just not going to be able to offer you the hospitality of the tavern, and I doubt you'd want to stay if we could. There is a small army outside, and they say that Railford's theirs unless we can produce a deed showing legal sovereignty, or some such. I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you to pass on, ladies and gents, for your own safety."

"We are looking for Iodon Railford-san, or his son. Is he not the lord of this land? Where may we find him?"

"Doesn't Taldor have more important things to do than bother you?" Davor grunts, not understanding why they'd bother this town being such a huge nation, as far as he knows. "Surely they should be killing monsters or protecting their land?"

Must be something important about the distillery that we were not told. Hisao mutters. We represent the pathfinders he says to Dallard It may be critical to all our objectives that we speak to the Railford clan as soon as possible

"We're the good guys. And, if we're here, that makes you the good guys, and those people out there are the bad guys." Mirima grins happily at the conclusion.

"I'm with the brute squad here. Taldor really need to get their priorities straight. Well, until they do, where do we find someone who can speak for the Railford clan?"

"Well, I doubt it is quite so simple as all that, my dear, but all the same, we are here on Society business, so the petty concerns of the Taldan army are of no consequence to me," Parumartish states flatly.

"We're the good guys. And, if we're here, that makes you the good guys, and those people out there are the bad guys." Mirima grins happily at the conclusion.

"I'm with the brute squad here. Taldor really need to get their priorities straight. Well, until they do, where do we find someone who can speak for the Railford clan?"

"Is good and bad so easily defined?" Davor asks wisely "These soldiers are most likely following orders from whoever leads them. We're not talking about bandits here, if they get in my way I won't be lenient."

Davor nods to Parumartish, agreeing with his comment.
"Agreed, let us secure this distillery." then a thought occurs to him "the thought comes to mind...if these poor people are unable to find the deed then even if we were allowed to use the Distillery by the current owners, the new ones may change plans or request tribute instead."

"Yes, it really is that simple. I know I'm good. I may side with the wrong side, but I'm still the good guy. If I turn out to be mistaken, I'm just the good side who made a mistake." Mirima answers innocently.

145 years old, going on 6. The elder elven wizards really should've thought twice before teaching Mirima how to evoke the elements. :P

"Well, Becher's not here at the moment, but I'll,. . . Look if you are so interested in getting involved, you'd better come with me."

He takes you into one of the houses that also serves as a small temple, and to a man laying in a cot.

"Becher, the owner of the distillery and the closest thing we have to a king or mayor in these parts, he took a small group out into the marsh to retrieve his late father's deed, indicating that these parts are rightfully his. This morning, this fellow stumbled back into town alone, nearly dead from fever."

The bed ridden man stirs, then wakes, looking up to you feebly, while Dalard asks him to tell his story.

The man indicates that they had set off two das ago to Becher's father's hidden cache, but just as Becher had retrieved the deed, a group of abominations fell on them, slaughtering all. He just barely escaped, and it's a miracle he managed to get back here with his wounds.

Bulgo looks at the poor man.

heal: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 1 = 19

"Can you remember how many of the creatures attacked you? And how many were in your group that was attacked?"

Stepping away he gathers the group and the Dalard together.

"We have a problem. That man... he is dying of Ghoul fever. If he dies, he'll rise again as one of those same abominations that attacked him and the group."

He looks around.

"That also means to get the deed, we'll be fighting ghouls."

Turning to Dalard he asks "Do you have any holy water here? If so, would you be willing to part with it? And if that man dies.. which seems likely at the moment, you must burn his body."

Knowledge Religion: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14
"Ghoul Fever, that is what I think too." he states as he nods towards Bulgo. "Holy Water will help, but I'd like to know what weapons I'll need to use on these things when we face them. I hope my own knowledge can give us some answers."

Knowledge Religion Monster Lore Ghoul: 1d20 + 4 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 4 + 3 = 27 if DM is fine with this

Basically I'm looking for DR or any other weakness they may have without meta-gaming so I'll know if it's better to have my sword out or Heavy Flail.

edit: I'm not entirely sure whether or not you can take 10 on a knowledge check, but it doesn't seem prudent, so I'll roll.

Knowledge (religion): 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 15

re-edit: That roll was to know more, possibly different stuff about ghouls since the ghoul fever has already been pointed out.

Oopse, That post from Bulgo was supposed to be Yoshi. I was getting confused.

I wondered what rogue crashed our party :)

"Ghoul Fever?" Mirima looks over to Yoshi. "You seem to attract diseases." Seeing as the tall Tian man has already asked the sick man a whole lot of questions, Mirima kept herself busy thinking about ghouls.

"So, how do we beat up a ghoul?"

Let's see if Mirima knows.

K(religion): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (14) + 8 = 22

was going to point out one of the rules on here was not to use the same character in 2 or more games at once, lol. S'arkee is in a game with him.

Yeah, I had a panic moment that I'd stuffed up and got into two games at the same time somehow.

"where can we buy holy water?"

-Posted with Wayfinder

"Can't we just whip some up? Where's Sylph...oh, yeah. She's not with us this trip." The wizard elf looks slightly disappointed at the recollection that her new-found friend the prior adventure is not with them this journey.

"With or without the water, we should go retrieve the deeds. That is likely key to taking care of all this fighting and sieging going on."

"Look, we could really use your help, here, but I understand this isn't your fight. Only Becher knows where the vault is, we just know it's out there in the marsh. And, well, a humble town like this, sad to say, there is no one to make holy water. I'm afraid you are out of luck on that."

With a few clues on where to look, you begin heading out into the marsh land to attempt to track down Becher and his crew, though they are likely dead. Hopefully though, you might be able to find the families hidden cache, and with it bring back the deed that would save the town from a brutal battle they can't hope to win.

Can I get some Survival Checks please.

A narrow footpath leads down a gentle but muddy escarpment, disappearing into thick tangles of shrubs and swamp-weed. At the base of the hill, the dirt path turns to soft sticky mud. It winds back through the shadowy mire. Nailed to a nearby tree hangs a moss-covered plank crudely cut into an arrow that points towards the mucky path.

Yoshi lifts another mud covered boot from the ground and inspects it.

"When I was being a small lad. I was sent to work in the fields. I didn't like it then, and I don't like it now."

survivial-aid another: 1d20 ⇒ 4

"You know people drown in mud, don't you?"

and the knowledge checks earlier for knowledge on Ghouls?

Survival: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

"I am unfamiliar with this countryside..." Davor states, seeming to struggle with the mud or finding his way.

Survival: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

It appears our dice are infected, and contageous.

Mirima trudges through the mud, finally giving up keeping her outfit clean after the umpteenth splatter. "What are we looking for, exactly?

Survival: 1d20 ⇒ 11

Survival: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22

Just follow me, and don´t get too far ...

Tuka gets the bow ready... just in case...

Survival: 1d20 ⇒ 17
This brings back memories Hisao mutters I believe I see something here.

Mirima follows Hisao and Tuca as she continues the dreadful journey. "I see mud. A LOT of mud." The mud-stained elf sighs, hoping for something of more comfort, and soon.

Also, Mirima. I was under the impression one of my spells had to be from my specialty school also, but I can't seem to find that rule now...

edit: Apparently that was a 3.5 rule and isn't in Pathfinder.

Well, that's all six, so Mirima's gonna post a response. I think paizo removed the requirement! I have a pretty old core book. I wonder if it's still in mine. I'll have to check when I get home tonight.

A relevant post

Yeah, apparently they removed it with errata that went unnoticed. Good.

Are we playing up?

I didn't think so. None of us brought someone above level 2. If Sylphiette brought her L4 character and I brought my L3 ranger we probably could make a more reasonable case of playing the L3-4 tier.

I can swap for a level 3 oracle if you want.

Ok. I'm going to load up my Ranger in preparation. I'd like an ok from our GM before I make this swap, but I'll be ready and waiting. Just give the word, Mr. GM.

Ah. Doesn't really make a difference to me. I was just curious.

So, I have just been made aware that all Online PFS play has been made illegal, through a new inadvertent ruling. I plan on continuing on in hopes that this will be fixed, but as it currently stands, as far as I can tell, unless you can hand me a physical copy of your character sheets and all Chronicle Sheets, Online PFS play is now illegal. Even Dropbox is a NoGo. Of all of my current games, I have 1 player out of maybe 30 that I could get a physical Character and all Chronicle Sheets from right now.

Now, I'm not trying to cause a panic, or anything, but at the same time, I think it might be a good idea to get in contact with your local Venture Officers let them be aware of this and hopefully deal with it. I've already Emailed Jesse Davis (online VC). And again, I plan on continuing with my Online games, as this seems like both a hasty decision made without looking at all the sides and also not intended to make Online Play illegal or unofficial.

Chris Mortika made that point before, there are many people who´s handwriting is just a mess. Some of those are also very special at keeping documents or organizing them, but still want to play more complicated characters with lots of attacks/buffs/stuff.

You make the investment to buy the books and herolab, be welcome to use both. Just stick by the rules, meaning own what you play and have the legal resources at hand if necessary.

As written in the guide if you play at a table, please bring printed chronicles. It´s fair to bring copies of the chroncles and not carry around the originals i guess.

I don't understand the point of requiring physical chronicles, especially if copies are acceptable. Apparently it is, or will be, the rule, but what's the advantage?

If you have a boon on a sheet that is required to be crossed off when used, it's hard for the GM to do so if it's on your tablet.

Physical sheets are required. As a GM, I'm not comfortable with someone handing me their tablet. What if I drop it by accident and it breaks? Am I going to be required to replace it or pay for repairs? We don't want GMs to come under that sort of pressure.

Physical sheets are required.

To clarify: Chronicle sheets, character sheets, or both?

Both

LINK HERE

The thread itself was locked the same day that this ruling was made, and as far as I can tell, no mention of how terrible this would be for Online play has been made. I could be wrong, and I'd love to see a link showing how this is false. :(

This is going to get messy, as of recently I have been writing my cronicle sheets in english, but were i play we do it in spanish.... you know what I mean.
It NOT a problem for me but... this is going to make things dificult.

Send my a pm with your mail I will send you everything.

Don't worry about it right now. Like I said, I'm going to continue as is for now in hopes that this switches back.

If not, I'll vouch for you that you flew to my house just to show me your chronicles and character sheet.

:P

I think that is more about having paper copies for face to face play.

the issue about breaking someone's tablet by dropping it on the internet hopefully won't crop up.

Now a virus embedded in the PDF....

yeah I agree with Yoshi. I have all my chronical sheets, but I'd need to scan them in.

I don't think many DMs are going to want a look at them unless I have something like a unique intelligent item and they want to know what chronical it came from, how much gp it was, how my gp I had at the time and so on.

Jesse said he's going to talk to Mike about changing it to exclude Online play. So, not freaking out, just wanted to make others aware, as it's hidden in a locked thread I just happened to see.

:)

No freaking out here. There is a market for the products built up by the online game play (I know how much I've spent since playing online - being near Christmas sure helped Paizo there, and I can't be the only one). If Paizo decides to seriously hamper this marketing avenue, they've got problems. I fully expect they'll find a way to allow online play to continue and thrive.

I'm not worried. The purpose of all this is to make it easier to find and run fun games and it worked as we're in a fun game :).

I'm just sad because it's a weak argument. I don't stop being responsible for what happens to my things because I hand them to someone else unless that person does something unreasonable with whatever it is. If my tablet breaks and most reasonable people can agree that it was an accident, then it could just as easily have happened while it was in my possession. So I would have no reasonable argument to support monetary compensation. If you break my tablet because you decided it would make a nice coaster or football, on the other hand, that's completely different.

Honestly isn't everything far easier to find on the online psrd than going through books individually anyway?

Yes, I really don't see any wisdom in the ruling. I'd say it should have ended with a little suggestion that if the DM is not comfortable with electronics at the table or handling other people's things for digital character/chronicle sheets, than they have the right to disallow anyone to play, or something.

Anyway, it's been officially fixed to exclude Online Play, so no worries.

I'll be attempting to update the game later tonight. :)

I'll update today, and I'm going to try to be very active today in hopes of finishing up. This and one other game are the only ones likely to finish or get close for Game Day. So I have a question for everyone. There are kin of three options here.

I'm going to finish the game no matter what, but would everyone rather trying to push it as fast as possible, and even if we don't completely finish it, I could report it for the Game Day, and then conclude the wrap up afterwards, or we could not worry about the Game Day at all, and just play until done.

There are essentially 2 combats left, with the possibility, and generally combats are what slows the game down the most (not a bad thing, it just requires for the most part everyone's participation). And I'm not clear if the Game Day ends at the start of or at the end of Feb 01.

Well, if you bunch them together in a 3x2 row formation, and make sure the two wizards can go first, we may be able to finish a combat in one round...

I'm with Mirima here.

BOOM

Good with any approach.

I am good with the decision of the group. 2 a.m. here but can post in RT almost till dawn.
Checking the Character i didn´t have in it the wand of cure light wounds brougth with pp, corrected.

Thanks for that. I retconned, since grease would've just been stupid in that environment. Party (in RL) over now, and I'll be able to keep close tabs for the night. Go team go!

5 a.m. no moment on sight, sleeeeepy... sorry, I am going to bed.

Same here.

I do still kind of need to hear an answer from people. Not really clear what either Mirima's or Davor's was.

Happy to push it if folk want, but not expecting a boon out of this (my luck with boons this GD is totally non existant).

Sorry, I thought we were going ahead with the pushing forward as fact as we can. I'm happy to enjoy this experience with the group (admit it, we're fun together, even when we are diseased or knee-deep in the mud).

There are plenty of boons to be had in the career. I'm not overly concerned about pre-reporting and trying for one here. Let's just enjoy this game quickly, hope we come out alive (I hear ghouls do bad things to you if you let them), and enjoy a long career together :).

I guess that means Mirima votes we keep a brisk pace, but enjoy the game, and not worry about the boon.

Well put. Yoshi votes for that too.

exactly :D

Also I agree it is a fun group and Mirima his entertaining in her way to piss off Davor in the last adventure, lol.

Davor! What did I just say about the ghouls?! Some people never listen. Hrmph. :)

I try to be pretty allowing with illusions. Ill take a look at this one specifically, but I generally interpret Illusions so that you dont even get a save unless you physically interact with it, but its also case by case, where circumstances may give a bonus or penulty. Let me look into it a bit, though.

-Posted with Wayfinder

Right, but mindless undead are immune to mind-affecting spells, so I'm not sure if an illusory stone wall would hinder the zombies in any way.

So, lets say you create a Silent Image of a warrior beside the zombie. I'll roll a random target roll including the illusion, as there is no reason the zombie wouldnt attack it, unless its really the only reasonable target, or someone else is closer. The zombie wouldnt get a Save at all until after it successfully hit the Illusion (AC 10+ size). If it fails the save, it will probably continue to attack it. Otherwise it might ignor it, or if circumstances changed, it would act appropriate to its nature.

Now, against a more intelligent creature, lets say you forgot to mention you want the Silent Image to (and this is more example than literal), forgot that you are in water and didnt have the illusion include splashing or ripples, that might give the enemies a clue, or even an auto pass. Something like an Earth Elemental with extra senses, for example would know its not material, or not corporeal, but doesnt know its an illusion, just that something is up.

-Posted with Wayfinder

Ah, if it doesnt say its a Mind-Affecting Effect, its not. :)

-Posted with Wayfinder

Alright then. The rest is just up to perceived zombie behavior. :)

Ok, we are close enough that I'm going to go ahead and report it. Now, that being said, I have no issue with continuing on and finishing up, BUT, (and honestly this is Season 0 so not really a huge threat anyway), that does mean that anything after this point can not alter the Chronicle Sheet, so it's just for fun and a sense of closure, and I'm not going to lie, I need a break.

:)

Boon Roll-Off

Davor: 1d20 ⇒ 17
Hisao: 1d20 ⇒ 12
Mirima: 1d20 ⇒ 15
Parumartish: 1d20 ⇒ 6
Tuca: 1d20 ⇒ 7
Yoshi: 1d20 ⇒ 14
DM: 1d20 ⇒ 16

Told you my luck was rotten. Yoshi must have caught the non-boon disease from his PFS cousins... and it looks like it moved on to everyone else too.

Okedoke. Please note I would like to do a spell swap with Mr. Parumartish here, if he's amenable to it. I'll edit this with a list and cost shortly.

With Parumartish's blessing, I would like to copy the following spells:

Level 0:
resistance
spark
haunted fey aspect[UCo]

Level 1:
protection from evil
mount
obscuring mist
comprehend languages
color spray
enlarge person

for 75gp.

In exchange, I would be glad to share my spells with Parumartish as well.

O.o Boon, wonder what I get!

Sadly, only a 20 or a 1 gets a boon, so no one won. However, Im not particularly interested in what was offered, so I wouldnt worry.

Sadly, only a 20 or a 1 gets a boon, so no one won. However, Im not particularly interested in what was offered, so I wouldnt worry.

Just been reading up on boons and it said players don't get them anymore, just the GMs.

I'm interested in getting certain race boons, however one of the races I'm after, Hobgoblin, there doesn't appear to be a boon for.

Shame as I have a really interesting idea for a Hobgoblin who is a ex-soldier of Molthune who fled due to being framed for the murder of his wife.

If you've seen Farscape, I basically got the idea of Dargo from the series.

In GD3 GMs get a single sylph boon.
Players (and GMs) get a 10% chance per character/session to pick from
improved animal companion
racial weapons training and
special ammunition.

The player boons are situational at best. But that is okay, if they were too good there would be complaints from folk who didn't get them or more cheating around the boon rolls.
