Sorry, Gramdma took a bad fall, been busy with that
Congratulations again, and don't forget to come back!
Okay, I want to make sure I have this right, don't want to screw this up and this is my first time.
Beaks is at -16, I have a +12 to Heal, the DC for First Aid to stabilize is 15. I have a potion of cure moderate wounds, plus wands for CLW. I also have plenty of spells.
I know I need to save Beaks, but I am looking for the quickest, most efficient way to bring her back.
Or did I read it wrong and -16 is like dead?
At -16 Beaks is already dead-dead. The only thing that can save her is a breath of life.
Dead dead, not mostly dead.
She may have cheated at cards.
Siolad?
Sorry for the hold up--I'm here.
So... who are we waiting on?
Ventus but I'm about to NPC him.
I vote we give the amulet to one of the casters, since by my calculations they seem to be pretty far behind on wealth compared to the rest of us. It'd probably do Siolad the most good.
Works for me. But I'm also drunk on wine! :)
I'll accept the amulet, no problem.
How's the honeymoon going Mott?
Did I mention I'm drunk? :)
Seriously couldn't ask for anything better so far. Just going too fast...
In a few more levels Ensu will be able to keep Mind Blank up on a couple people. That'll protect you overnight. In the meantime you'll just have to hope you start making those saves.
I'm really hoping Ventus reappears soon. =/
Me too!
Yeah, you and me both.
We should consider the possibility that Ventus is gone for good. He mentioned struggling with some troubles and it's possible he's not coming back in the near future.
It's always possible to add new characters but I think I'd prefer to insert a new player into an old character like we did with Ensu. What are you thoughts?
I'm easy like Sunday morning. Either introducing a new character or reintroducing an older one works for me.
I think a veteran player would be better than someone like me, I found it hard to jump in.
Okay, it's time to replace Ventus.
Does anyone know any regular posters we can trust to take his place? I can open recruitment but it's dicey recruiting for a game this far along.
I'd be happy with anyone from my Reign of Winter campaign; they're all solid, regular posters. I can see if anyone's interested...
Sure. Get the word out.
That was quick. Welcome aboard!
We're actually a pretty balanced party at this point. We've got two melee (rogue and barbarian), a divine caster, and an arcane caster. Others may have differing opinions but anything could work.
Any core races should be fine. Anything Pathfinder should be fine for classes but I'd prefer you avoid anything from ACG and on as well as magus, gunslinger, and summoner. That said, if you've got a cool idea that you're excited about and not super broken I'm open to taking a look.
I agree anything could work. Maybe something ranged if you're really looking for a very specific niche, but I think the group's got the four "core" types filled, so anything else goes.
As long as you're not a tiefling or a dirty Chuh-lax-ee-uhn.
Play a short race, we don't have enough of people with 20 movement!
Can't say I've got any real preference as to what I think this group needs.
Sometimes I click on you people's aliases and realize I am a slacker.
If you're not opposed to the idea there's a few characters already introduced in the story that would fit that. Ameiko for example or a shoanti thundercaller named Krojun that's been involved in the story a couple times.
Well I'll leave the specific build details up to you but here are the characters that have come and gone in the story thus far that we could work into the story fairly painlessly.
Shalelu: Elven bounty hunter turned defender of Sandpoint. Sister of Siolad (the party's mage) and Ameiko's former lover/adventuring partner. Likely a ranger of some kind but druid could work if you're still considering druid.
Ameiko: Tian woman who owns the Rusty Dragon and former adventurer. Heiress to one of the more wealthy families in Sandpoint. Her family all died in the early parts of the story but she's close to several members of the party. She's statted as a bard but she could work as a rogue pretty well too.
Krojun-Speaks-With-Thunder: Brawny shoanti lorekeeper and former right hand to Sheriff Hemlock. Mentored the party a bit early on and then left to seek his own adventure. He's statted as a bard but skald would be a good fit too.
Doran: Human inquisitor of Abadar. Son of a big hero in Absalom that came to Sandpoint to make a name for himself and help with the city's 'troubles'. He was an inquisitor crossbowman but fighter, cleric, or even warpriest would be good.
An excellent choice. There is actually a couple more that I forgot and should mention but I am on my way to a dentist appointment and don't have time to write me a blurb for them.

Special Abilities
--------------------
Bardic Performance (standard action) (26 rounds/day) Your performances can create magical effects.
Bardic Performance: Call Lightning (Su): At 8th level, the thundercaller can use her performance to summon bolts of lightning, as per the spell call lightning. The lightning storm lasts for as long as she continues her performance, calling down one bolt of lightning per round. The damage of these lightning bolts can be increased in stormy areas or can be limited as call lightning describes.
Bardic Performance: Countersong (Su) Counter magical effects that depend on sound.
Bardic Performance: Distraction (Su) Counter magical effects that depend on sight.
Bardic Performance: Fascinate (3 targets) (DC 17) (Su) One or more creatures becomes fascinated with you.
Bardic Performance: Incite Rage (DC 17) (Su): At 6th level, the thundercaller can induce a furious rage in one creature within 30 feet. This effect functions as the rage spell and lasts as long as the target can hear the thundercaller’s performance. Unwilling creatures can be affected if they fail a Will save (DC 10 + 1/2 the thundercaller’s level + the thundercaller’s Cha modifier).
Bardic Performance: Inspire Courage +2 (Su) Morale bonus on some saving throws, attack and damage rolls.
Bardic Performance: Thunder Call (Su): At 3rd level, the thundercaller can use her performance to unleash a deafening peal of thunder. This allows the thundercaller to spend a round of performance to create an effect similar to the spell sound burst (having the same range and area and allowing the same saving throw). At 7th level, the sonic damage that is dealt by this blast of sound increases to 3d8.
Darkvision (60 feet) You can see in the dark (black and white vision only).
Energy Resistance, Acid (5) You have the specified Energy Resistance against Acid attacks.
Energy Resistance, Cold (5) You have the specified Energy Resistance against Cold attacks.
Energy Resistance, Electricity (5) You have the specified Energy Resistance against Electricity attacks.
Fast Movement +10 (Ex) +10 feet to speed, unless heavily loaded.
Power Attack -3/+6 You can subtract from your attack roll to add to your damage.
Rage (11 rounds/day) (Ex) +4 Str, +4 Con, +2 to Will saves, -2 to AC when enraged.
Rage Power : Swift Foot (Ex) The barbarian gains a 5-foot enhancement bonus to her speed. This increase is always active while the barbarian is raging.
Scion of Humanity Count as a human for any effect related to race. Pass as human without using disguise.
Trap Sense (Ex) +1 to Reflex saves versus traps and to AC versus traps
Uncanny Dodge (Ex) She cannot be caught flat-footed, nor does she lose her Dex bonus to AC if the attacker is invisible.
Versatile Performance (Dance) +12 (Ex) You may substitute the final value of your Perform: Oratory skill for Diplomacy or Sense Motive checks
Versatile Performance (Oratory) +16 (Ex) You may substitute the final value of your Perform: Dance skill for Acrobatics or Fly checks
Well Versed (Ex) +4 save vs. bardic performance, sonic, and language-dependent effects.
I'll leave it up to you to let me know what sort of funds, if any Krojun needs to be up to par.
Your hit points are way off, James.
I'll look things over when I get home.
Do you have access to HeroLab James?
For equipment pick out 76k worth of gear. You’ll also start with a shoanti totem tattoo granting +4 enhancement bonus to one ability score and +2 enhancement bonus to another one and a Sandpoint militia tabard granting a +2 resistance bonus to saves and +2 enhancement bonus to natural armor.
A couple things:
1) Assuming you're pumping charisma, you're missing a stat bump.
2) You'll need to ditch that 3rd trait.
Let me know what gear you're picking up and I'll herolab for you.
