I believe you were down 16 from the two negative channels, Ser Armithia.
DM, I think everyone is healed up (some) now, as Azarra rolled for herself, Ishta did as well, Ser Armithia just did, and I rolled for both myself and Kardas. Let me know if you agree. Thanks!
Thank you, Zane. For some reason, I didn't track it.
Doh, my bad, Fang Dragon -_- apparently my reading comprehension skills can collapse when I'm completely beat after a long day.
Can I confirm if the healing situation is up to date? Everyone was really low from the haunt and Ishta was staggered at zero hp. You're HP totals are much better now but not topped off.
From my calculations, the haunt did 16 damage to everyone except Ishta, who took 25.
Zane healed 14, so he should be 2 down.
Azarra healed 14, so should be 2 down.
Ishta healed 20, so should be 5 down.
Kardas healed 20, so should be full.
Ser Armithia healed 16, so should be full.
Oh yes, sorry. I took the 12 I rolled as the damage, somehow. 5 down it is, then.
@Ishta If I may; a Blocking Spell of some sort really can turn the tide of battle. Spells like Web, Walls, and even Summons can decide how our enemies behave. Just my thoughts. My favorite class is Wizard...lol.
All advice is welcome. Ishta was planned as a blaster, and I'm starting to think it wasn't the best of ideas. Let's see what happens when I get access to Fireball.

DM, this is where I have everyone after all of our healing efforts. I'll of course defer to your numbers if you disagree.
A basilisk did 8 dmg to Kardas so he can't be full. But OK lets say you're right otherwise.
I've updated the HP totals. Unfortunately it's late and I have a headache so I'll update the gameplay thread tomorrow.
Those numbers were pre-2nd basilisk fight, so we're on the same page. Hope you feel better tomorrow!
GM, I excluded the two hounds that were initially hurt by Ser Armithia and Kardas when they first arrived. I had put it in my flavor text, but I really should have specified in OOC below. I'll make sure to do so going forward.
Happy to heal, but only have my tablet till Thursday (moving). Can someone roll it for me? Tags are hard on this horrible keyboard.
2 CLW's on Kardas
2 CLW's on Zane
Okay, that does it for the cure light wand I am carrying (unless Ser's were from his, in which case we still have two charges).
I will subtract 7 charges total?
@Azarra I didn't think you took any damage?
@Ser Armithia who was the target of the two CLWs? Please be more specific.
Myself; others rolled their own.
OK unless I missed something the party are all healed to foo except Kardas who has 4pt of damage.
Ishta has 1 point od damage also.
I think it's time you leveled up before the next encounter. Remember you haven't rested so you can't memorize new spells yet.

Level 5! Whoo-whooo!
I will level tonight; Paly 5; no surprises.
I was just talking about the wand I was carrying. It had 6 charges left, so I was trying to count the uses on it. Except I think maybe Ser counted them on his as well, so...? :)
But yes, I am fully healed and didn't need any charges myself.
And awesome on leveling, but I think I will do it tomorrow. Just finished moving today and I'm out of motivation, sorry.

Okay, I need help with this last one. Which other spell should I pick? Invisibility? Glitterdust? Any other? What do you guys think?
Also, GM: Is it possible to retrain a trait? Well, a part of a trait. The part affecting Burning Hands, which is a spell I thought I would use a lot but then it hasn't been used much because most of the time I would have fried half of the group. It happens when you've never played a full arcane before, I guess. If the answer is possitive, please tell me how much time and coin would it take.
Invisibility is always useful, and could possibly allow you to position yourself for your more destructive spells without blasting the rest of us.
Burst of Radiance would be my suggestion. It is the best level 2 evocation spell, is easy enough to use from a distance and well, it is just amazing. Also, I think you've been doing well and there's no reason to be that harsh on yourself :)

We are using the normal retraining rules . Traits are not listed but they are usually considered to be half a feat. So you need a trainer or it will cost 1.5x normal. The training will take 3 days (rounding up) and cost 10g * 3 * 5 = 150g with a trainer or 225g without.

edit - swapped greater fortitude out for arcane strike, as gr fort isn't a combat feat thus isn't a legal option
Ok. I am at a loss, as to why my Hp is so high. I should only have hp 44 now (6+1+1=8x5=40+4=44). We are doing average for Hd?
I think I derped because I've been using average HP for the last two level-ups.
*hides* ._.
I think we're using max HP.
Yeah, I've been using max all the time, from what I see. In any case, Ser, your 1st level should at least be maxed.
... doh, adjusted that ._.
Whoops, sorry. I said I would level yesterday and I blew it off. Sorry. We can continue with me at a lower level if that is okay. I will try to get to it after work. (Sorry again.)
Since Kardas got Web and Glitterdust, I think I'll pick Invisibility, just to broaden our possibilities. Kardas, you and me, sharing spellbooks, how about it? *Wink*
Sure thing :) and really, Burst of Radiance is the shizzle for evokers!
Seems a good spell, but has a cap of 5d4, so I think I'll keep it for later when I can use it with Intensified Spell. For now, Burning Arc offers the advantage of not needing to care about AoE friendly damage (though I have a rod of Selective Spell) and a higher damage cap.
On the other hand, I could use Burst of Radiance for blinding and some added damage, and Intensified Burning Hands for pure damage if I make use of the rod (3/day). If I pick BH as the target of Spell Specialization, it could deal 9d4+9 damage. Then at 6th level I would pick Fireball and Haste, change the Spell Specialization to Fireball and would have scribed Burning Arc on my book. By then, I would have an AoE that blinds, an AoE that deals tons of damage (10d6+6) and a multitarget spell that ignores friends. Seems cool as well.
The thing is that it can blind, but always applies dazzle for 1d4 rounds. And evil creatures *always* take the full 5D4. I don't know, I'm in love with the spell. It's the same with ear-piercing scream, a lvl 1 evoker spell. A damage *and* debuff spell in one? Yes please!
Level 5:
+9 HP (max+con, right?)
+1 2nd level spell known (Invisibility)
+1 spell per day for both 1st and 2nd level
+10 skill points (perception, diplomacy, disable device (2), acrobatics, bluff, sense motive, spellcraft, stealth, appraise)
Get Lore Master
Inspire Courage goes up to +2
Feat: Rapid Shot
Now Ishta and I can invisibly sneak up on things. :)
Other than the Hp question (max or average?),; ready.
This campaign uses max hp.
Okay, finally picked Create Pit and Burst of Radiance. Thank you, Kardas!
You're welcome ;D let's hope they'll come to good use!
Not a bad battle tactic: having Ishta start our combats with a spell, then Azarra Inspiring, then we go?
I'm taking the family on holiday, I'm expecting internet at the villa but posting won't be priory #1 :) Still I'll see if I can get an update tomorrow.
No worries. I am going on vacation from December 18th to January 4th. I will have internet, but same with lower priority since I'll be hanging out with family, so if the game slows down I'm actually all for it in this circumstance.
Aw, have a good time! The game won't be going anywhere, but those few precious days away will fly on by in no time :)
