DM-Camris' WRATH of the RIGHTEOUS Part 1: The Worldwound Gambit (table 2) (Inactive)

Game Master Camris

Hey, no worries :)

So any survivors of this fight will hit level 2 :)

"Any survivors??" Well that sounds promising... :P

Tess is going to be missing for a few days to focus on school and handle some personal things. So just bot her for now (and don't go recruiting!).

Got it good to know.

All I can say is, about dang time I hit something in this fight. :P

So the two cultists were just enough to put you all over the edge, welcome to level 2.

Feel free to level up, just keep any current penalties and HP totals. For any new spells you can learn them now but you'll have to wait until you've rested to use them.

Might be best to just wait until the encounter is over before we confuse the issue.

Can't level up... Still sleeping :P lol (unless the two new posts heal me. Takes forever to check on my phone.

As long as we've been playing this game, have you gotten even one sneak attack in, Xaivan? If not, that's absolutely criminal.

Also, I agree with holding off on leveling until after this encounter is over, it just feels right.

Lastly, I have a question for the GM: can we start getting XP earned posted after encounters/events? I'd just prefer if it were tracked publicly.

Even more lastly: PbPs that make it this far feel rare and I have to say I've enjoyed playing with all of you guys. I look forward to continuing in the future. Making it to level 2 with the original party mostly intact is a pretty nice accomplishment. Keep up the good work Striker, and everyone else, I'd love to see where this adventure takes us.

As far as I'm concerned I have no problems with the way XP have been recorded till now. The GM knows when it's time to level and when it's not, counting every XP (and all the math involved) is not what levelling should be about imo.

As for level 2... I admit I would have liked to level now, but if the rest of the group feels it's better to wait I will go along with that decision.

That and I agree with Pollux about the group, I'm having a good time playing with you all, and I hope we can go on for a long time (I have had PFS that lasted a couple of years so I know it can be done... :P)

If you would like I can just post the current totals when you earn them so you get a visible cue but don't have to worry about tracking them yourselves.

On another note any clue when Tess will be back?

Yeah, since its an AP I guess the leveling can be done however we feel is best.

I think that if I have had sneak attack chance it would have been with my bow. I don't think I've had good luck with my initiative rolls so I haven't caught anyone flat-footed. Not that it matters since I didn't really build this guy with heavy combat in mind.

I'm fine with whatever as far as XP is concerned. Leveling...I definitely can't tonight (way too wiped, sorry), and it might be cleaner to wait till after the encounter. But all's fine by me. :)

I also have really loved playing this; I'm still relatively new to PBPs, but I've found out quickly how easily they can fade/wither. I'm hoping that this stays strong for a long, long time--I've been having a blast. :)

Looks like we're still in initiative. Besides Tess, who hasn't gone this round?

Also I'm not sure when Tess is coming back. Hopefully soon.

w00t no longer bleeding out lol
At least I played a relatively effective hit soak XD

Way to be a meat shield Ce-Eshna!

Might have to alter my plans of being an archer... Can I take levels in "carpet"? Lol

NO you can't.

It's a well known truth that "carpet" is an OP class and therefore banned from play!

Seriously though: "Archer" suits you fine, it's just that without real tanks your job is going to be difficult, I'll try to get harder but it's not going to be soon...

:P

Oh archer tank isn't that hard to do with mythic tiers. I do have to reevaluate now that bard levels are pointless. Probably replace it with sorc. Playing an archer interceptor will be interesting heh

...now that bard levels are pointless...

Did I do that? :p

No big deal heh

So the map is now interactive, please put your selves on it ;)

Hey-o! Sadly I can't seem to interact with the map. It says "View Only" at the top; do you need to unlock it for editing?

Also, what's the rule for HP on leveling? Half-HD plus Con?

same here

Seems like the option for moving our icons (which are separated items from the map it seems) wasn't made avaiable.

Karthak will move near the first meat shi... mongrelman and slash at him/her/whatever asap...

Edit: I'd like to level, and I think we need to stay togheter if we wish to survive this. I know there are rooms we didn't explore above yet we can very well do that after we deal with the opposition down here.

Alright then, lets level.

"Feel free to level up, just keep any current penalties and HP totals. For any new spells you can learn them now but you'll have to wait until you've rested to use them."

So I guess we might get an extra +1 to our BAB or something, better than nothing. I'm not familiar with the mythic aspect of this but I'm assuming that has no bearing on anything yet.

There's no mythic aspect yet, we need to do some mythical quests first and then gain mythic tiers... and I guess we didn't do anything that qualifies yet...

Anyway I'll level now...

Word on the street is we don't get mythic tiers until the end of the first adventure. So I'd say don't hold your breath for them ;)

That's correct you get tier one at the end of this adventure. Map should be fixed.

Just updated my character sheet to lvl 2. I didn't raise the hps though, so Karthak should still be at 2 (6) hps... ;(

Edit: Map works for me now, TY GM!

Hey. Sorry to go dark, guys.

Without going into too much detail, I've just been dealing with some crap. It's not going away anytime soon, but I would like to keep playing if you'll have me.

<3

NP.

Unfortunately bad stuff happens and of course RL takes precedence.

Hope you solve your problems, Tess!

:)

Hooray for map! Working for me now too.

Also, sorry to hear about your bad crap, Tess. Take the time you need--life happens! :)

Glad to have you back Tess, if you need time to deal with RL that's fine, we can save your spot as long as we know your coming back ;)

I'll do one last summery of the current round to make sure everyone is on the same page as we transition.

So I'm going to change how combat works, this will greatly reduce my workloads and should help keep me from burning out. That should help me keep running this to it's completion. I'll post initiatives, and have the monsters combat stats in a spoiler tag, roll up your post and check it against it and you can add plenty of flavor for your actions. Should make things run a bit more smoothly for combat, if you don't post in 24 hours the next person should post and your delayed until you post again.

If you use an attack/spell/ability that requires a save roll it for them using the stats in the spoiler, and feel free to flavor the results. Good luck and have fun everyone.

Sounds like a plan!

Following up on what I posted in-game... Another option would be to make a mad dash for the spellcaster and take them out before they have a chance to do any more disruptive magic. They can't have that much hp.

Well I'd like to save up some spells for true strike, considering the enemy AC seems rather high. But if he's forced to Karthak will heal himself, ofc...

Unfortunately unless Tess comes running down with her CLW potions (if she has any left, I haven't been keeping track) then you're going to be your own source of healing. At level 2 you have more spells per day, right?

At level 2 I have 3 (including the bonus one for high wis) but if we are using lvl1 spells then I have 2 and one was used already. So 1 left.

Hmm. You think we could possibly barricade the door? Maybe shut ourselves in for a moment to regroup? Also, I know this is a lot of OOC coordinating so if I'm suggesting anything your character wouldn't do feel free to say so.

This is a tough situation, feel free to discuss it as much as you need.

Tess has used two CLW potions, looking at the Loot Tables, the party had 10, not sure where they all are myself. If you need her yell for her.

I yelled for her ;)

Lol good call.

I seem to have successfully grappled our obnoxious archer (unless Karthak killed her, I suppose...but I'm not counting on that). So we might have a situation from which to keep things not-incredibly-stabby.

im lost as to initiative as well, going to drop into the hole and fire, hehe second time I get to use the no fall damage trick

Its turned into a more, everyone acts and then all the enemies act fight at this point.

Just a heads up, my roommate has decided to drink every night for the last 4 months instead of paying the net and power bills so I'll be limited in my posting ability for the next little while. I can still post from work and my phone but that limits my ability to update maps and spreadsheets.

That sucks C.E. :( I moved you, let me know if you'd like to be moved someplace else!

Xaivan will fire an arrow at the once-grappled enemy!

Bow: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27 for Arrow: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
