So... first time I have played a barbarian. Even un-optimized as she is I am surprised by the amount of damage at 1st level.
Yeah, It's a total opposite with mages, low level we suck in the damage department, but once we hit lvl and take fireball we turn into essentially cannons.
Ah, this just makes me think of Treantmonk's guide to being a god xD
edit: BTW Vors, it looks like you'll have to make 2 saves while Grilnik tries to get Beth and Brynn into range xD
(He didn't notice her drink the healing potion, lol)
Now hold on, I was planning to be a Cleric myself, A mystic theurge to be exact, but if we are all chomping on the bit don't you think the amount of healing will be outrageous? ;P
Hey a full party of clerics of different gods sounds fun :)
lol, maybe just the guys xD
Beth or Brynn wanna join in? XD
edit:
OH, hey Verik! ... you wouldn't be planning on Desna by any chance, would you?
edit2: nevermind, Nethys makes more sense anyway. Oh well xD
Nah, I actually had the plan to, but with a cleric on the party already I rearranged stats to optimize for a wizard.
Looking over Vors's stats, I hope Cayden wasn't looking for a powerful cleric. Still, I never played a character's conversion before. This should be fun!
I love watching the RP happen that way. You can always try warpriest instead of cleric.
Thank you for being willing to go non-optimal with stuff like that. Makes for fun gameplay, I think.
Edit: Hey Vors, just looking over your stats. I might be missing something, but how are you getting the +2 damage, for the Mithril Dagger? I know you get +1 from your STR. Mithril counts as Masterwork so you get the +1 to hit, but not damage. Where is the extra +1 coming from?
Honestly I would have picked the Cloistered Cleric Archetype if I was going Cleric (it makes more sense), but that Punch man... Heh, makes what I said all the more better!
Also, I was thinking, What Check would one use to Interrogate someone if they where using torture? Would it still be intimidate, but with HUGE modifiers? I know them being helpless grants bonuses and such, but would then inflicting pain grant a larger bonus?

Weren't those daggers masterwork?
Yes, but masterwork is just +1 to hit. It would need to be a +1 Dagger (or +1 mithril dagger) to get the +1 to hit and the +1 to damage.
Masterwork is kinda the stepping stone to a real magic weapon.
Fixing it.
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
Yeah, Brynn will be a Cleric of Brynn, goddess of selfishness and fake kindness. Lol
There was a guy who did something like that in "Will Save World for Gold" xD
Just in case anyone was wondering about tying people up:
There's no extra check for pinned, unconscious, or otherwise restrained targets, and the DC is CMB+20.
Also, you can't escape from being tied up if the tied up person's CMB is less than the other guy's.
Good to know. I feel like at one point in the past few decades I knew that lol.
It changes with edition too, so you can know Thac0 one year, and need to do something different the next xD
The trick is to stick with one system for a while :P
So level time!
A few things.
1. Let me know what unique things you pick up.
2. If you wish to keep something secret from the group feel free to DM me
3. Till you rest you have access to any new things you pick. But you will need to pray/study to get new spells.
4. Things like new spells in spellbook should happen at night.. unless you can come up with some reason to have it done.
5. When in doubt RP over just sudden leveling.
Let me know if you have any questions.
How would you explain how Vors leveled when practically dead?
If it was a miracle, Vors could multiclass into cleric upon awakening.
I guess it depends on what you want to level. If you wake up being touched by divine power. You would need to pray to get spells, but you would have your channels.
Actually, in some ways, that would be the the easiest leveling to explain :)
Well, if it's alright with you, Vors wakes up a cleric.
Wow! Spontaneous conversion! Cayden's da man!
Rolling hit points..
Added: Reckless Stance which allows +1 to attack for -1 AC.
Honestly I'd think you'd emerge more as an oracle, or something spontainious, as to show that your God has smiled apon you with his belssings/terrible blindness and magic.
Hahaha! Hey Vors, it seems the wizard has more HP than you ;P
Edit: Notable changes- added a rank into Knowledge (nature) as Verik has realized he needs to study more in that area and has been doing so in his share time, so he has been neglecting his study of language to do so.
Also, Verik has been studying The spell Vanish and a spell to make an item temporarily Magical.(magic weapon)
Also because we have a large amount of gold, it's a good idea to give some to Verik as I have the PackRat feat which allows me to pull out any random useful item worth 25gp+10gp per level. So at lvl 2 I can pull out any random tool worth 35gp or less, so long as I have the gold for it and of course the rationality that such an item was being sold in town.
Sounds good! I like the PackRat feat. Most common tools and items should be available in town. So that works.
Since he's been carrying around a holy symbol and presumably worshipping Cayden anyway, I think a spontaneous ordainment for Vors is great xD
Also re: packrat, can we put Verik in charge of a packmule for maximum rat-packing? :D
Woot! Level!
I've had a crazy weekend, so I probably won't get to the level up until tomorrow.
LOVE that you're multi-classing into a divine class, btw Vors.
OH YEAH, I forgot to roll for things:
lol, ouch. Guess I'll be putting my favored class bonus into hit points again...
LOVE that you're multi-classing into a divine class, btw Vors.
Well, Vors is a victim of circumstance and the Will of his god. I look forward to rp his sudden conversion.
When Grilnik is done praying, you'll get 1d8+2 hitpoints, and that should help a bit...
Vors, because of your conversion I am going to say you come prepared with spells already. But they have to all be from your god's domain spells. So options to fill your slots: Protection from law, Charm Person, Protection from Evil, Enlarge Person, Longstrider, Expidicious Retreat, Hypnotism, or Bless.
I think that is a fun RP chance.. He preloaded his new cleric.
Charm is a domain offered by Cayden, Azata is an alternate option to Chaos or Good. In the Good Domain it describes you have pledged your life and soul to goodness and purity. Goodness yes, Purity..that doesn't sound like Vors, so I choose Azata instead.
How are we doing hp? Just rolling?
yup.
If you double check recruitment: max hp at first and roll after that.
Also, yes ouch. However 2 is better than two of your teammates xD
Not the best rolls for people.. I have to resist being too nice and letting you reroll. :-)
But hey an extra cleric cant hurt.
IKR, even though he wont have many spells, he has channeling for DAYS AND DAYS ('cause charisma) xD
Well, when the wizard has more HP than half the party it becomes kinda concerning...
But yeah, so long as I have the gold I can randomly pull out tools 1/day+my level I believe... I have to recheck how often I can do that, but if ever we need more rope a grappling hook, or some tool someone forgot to buy, I somehow purchased it and forgot about it.
Nifty New Things:
Brynn got the ability ranged spell strike, allowing her to deliver ranged spells with bow attack. She has no spells currently prepared that will allow her to take advantage of that, but she'll likely start using it after resting, even if only to deliver an acid splash or a ray of frost with an arrow for extra damage.
She has a new spell slot of level one and zero, but can't fill them yet. She needs to study.
She has two new spells known, which she also needs to sit down and write out to access, but she will be choosing expeditious retreat and vanish when she gets a chance to study. ...Let's not look too closely at those spell choices, guys... lol
Otherwise nothing exciting enough to note. Still working on the same skills and she gained +1 BAB, Fort and Will.
OOh level summary, good idea xD
Grilnik finally has enough background skills to get (max) appraise as well as (half) know(geo) and (half) prof(guard)
Likewise, Grilnik put his two non-background skills into Perception and Knowledge(religion) since he was rather lacking in those ^^;
For spells, I pretty much changed everything. Let me know if you want a cold iron (martial) weapon, Grilnik has your back beard xD
Also, same as Brynn: +1 BaB, Fort, and Will
Brynn: Sounds good. One small thing. You will need the Magus Arcana "Close Range" to be able to use ray ranged touch attacks in your Spell strikes. So things like Ray of Frost wont work. (I did a ton of digging when I wanted to make a magus)
Ah, specifics:
Once per day, when confronted with a situation that calls for a particular mundane item, you happen to have such an item on your person. The item must cost no more than 25 gp plus 5 gp per level, and you must pay its cost when you “find” it (in other words, the money you thought you had on your person was actually the item). The item must be something you can easily carry—for example, if you are on foot and have only a backpack, you could not have a large iron cauldron. You can’t find magical items using this feat, nor can you have specific items, such as the key to a particular door. If you are stripped of your equipment or possessions, you lose the benefits of this feat until you have at least a day to resupply and acquire new items.
So, Currently my limit is 35gp once a day.
Specifically my character has a backpack, so most tools are on the table for this feat. However I'm sure I can't carry a sledgehammer.
@Gm
Eldritch Archer archtype allows her to deliver targeted ranged attacks with a bow. A little different then the normal magus, also, she cannot do it with a melee weapon or spell.
It gives a fairly limited amount of spells but a lot of fun, I am playing in a Giantslayer game.
Same as with normal magus she gets a free ranged and then her normal but both are at -2.
Ah. I didn't realize all the changes for the Eldritch Archer, but that makes sense.

@Verik & GM Nex: But what if you carried your somehow-forgotten sledgehammer on a pet mule? :D
I don't have spell strike. I have ranged spell strike. It's a part of my archetype and is on my alias for reference. It only works with ranged spells that require an attack roll.
Oh, just realized Bethany beat me to it. Lol
lol, we can always just bring the kobold with us to point out traps directly. I suppose Grilnik wouldn't be up for springing said traps with the kobold, though...
Heh... Well, Verik may look the nice guy, and he quite often is, but he does have a distaste for quite a few things, and when he's met with these things, he venomously states his opinion.
Normally Brynn would pretend to be nice and heroic and offer to bring this kobold to the jail, so on and such, but right now? She's pissed she nearly died, and extra pissed at Grilnik! She's in no mood to act like she cares. lol

And she's severely torn up about Vors. Look how she weeps over the body, cursing her pride for not taking the chance to be held in his strong masculine arms.
lol, yay drama and pretend melodrama xD
I think Beth might be the kobold's only chance of surviving at the moment xD
