I just realized Cherias has the spell Detect Undead on his spells known and I could have used it before we entered to determine whether there were actually vampires in the coffins. Damnit.
I will be traveling starting tomorrow afternoon to attend Mid South Con where I am helping run PFS. I'll be busy and often without access to the internet so my posting will be very limited if at all. Everyone have a good weekend.
Cool, have fun!!
It might be best to sell the pipes. Without training in Perform for them we are at best using a standard action to have a 1 in 3 chance to activate an item that is negated by a DC 13 will save and will not effect creatures one level higher than us. The will sell for 3000 gold.
We don't have a Bard, either. And we keep running into things that have high Will saves. :D
I'd rather have a necklace of fireballs!
Hmm. True. I'd like to keep that ring of jumping, though. And we should consider using the proceeds from the pipes, at least, to buy our more fragile comrades some more protective gear.
We could always try using once and then sell it... :D
You could start taking ranks in Perform (wind instrument). ;) It could be a whole new way of life for Melianthe. *chuckles*
I am good with you keeping the ring Ab. Seems to fit your character. Not sure you can really beef up fragile comrades with gear. Better to keep them out of combat somehow.
Sorry, I am in Breckenridge Colorado for a quick ski trip. I hope to have time to post some, but that did not happen this first travel day. Totally exhausted and have to get up early. I'll be home Sunday.
Have a good trip, Segang!
Ring the city bells of Korvosa and let us bow our heads, for Mike McArtor has passed away.
Another great person gone away from us...
Sorry, Seren. I kind of flaked on your wizardly specialization... Shame to have robbed you of an opportunity to shine. :-/
Mel has her much neglected Ventriloquism, as well.
Shall we keep my action as a proposed action, then, in case diplomacy falls through...?
I don't think we can propose plans in the moment. Cherias is confused and thinks Absinthe is actually attacking the guy.
Nah, let's roll with it. Melianthe doesn't mind mayhem, dropping Stinking Clouds on crowds, and the like.
I wanted to give a heads up that I will be traveling from Friday after work through late Monday and my posting will be light and in the evenings, if at all. I should be back to normal Tuesday. Please GMbot me if needed.
Happy Friday! I'm traveling the next few days... I'll get back on track after the weekend.
Have fun. ^^
Camping this weekend myself. Have a good weekend all.
What do you feel about issuing a warning, and then dropping Stinking Cloud on everyone? Providing the PCs clear out. That will stop all the fighting for a bit.
I'm all for it!
Not sure completely why, but Segang would prefer you drop it on the crowd and not the Maidens.
Hope everyone had a great weekend! Apologize for the disappearing act... I'll also be on the road the next week, so my posting may be (more) sporadic.
I feel like we have totally failed this encounter… :(
Concur, Segang. I think it's a big miss for us in execution, but it is giving an indication of some draconian measures being put in place. Seems a bit misguided for a disease outbreak.
We need to focus on solving that issue ... finding the source / finding a cure.

I don't know--I don't think that melee was the answer. If we attack the crowd, we look awful. If we attack the Grey Maidens, we are fomenting anarchy and defying the Crown...hard choice.
Yea. Seems like we were to talk it down, but failed. I doubt getting the instigator away was part of the boxed text mission. :)
I rather blame myself. :-\ I honestly thought it'd be a good way to defuse the situation... but now I can't help but think this whole situation was a setup. My questioning of the 'mob leader' may provide some information.
I am certainly not unhappy that we saved that guy. I am just unsure it was the goal conceived by the module writers. All I can think of is that if we had managed a DC 30+ Diplomacy we could have calmed things down. Unsure of course.
It was a fine call, Abby. Maybe we can feed him to the wererats and kill two birds with one stone.
If he had an assignment to cause a riot and lead all those civilians to their deaths, I'd need to take 20 for a Bluff check convincing enough to make the wererats believe he's our precious friend we're sacrificing to them to soothe their rage...
I think we maybe could have convinced him to surrender to the guards. Cherias will be improving Diplomacy further at next opportunity. A circlet of persuasion would be very useful.

I'll be on vacation from 6/3-6/7...bot Melianthe as needed! Hex, hex, hex the unwary!
Time and internet are more sparse than expected... I'll resume again this weekend.
I was traveling with family last week. I was sure I would have time to post to my games, but did not. Sorry for my absence. Ready to start back though. :)
Same, so you didn't miss anything =)
Work's been kicking my ass, so no worries.
Yes, Seren is intentionally c***blocking the intimidate attempts. He's sick and tired of emotional folks going off half cocked and him having to clean up the mess (his selfish perspective :))
hey, just using Mel's best Cha skill. :D (damn dice).
I may have asked this before, but are you guys familiar with Roll20? (I know Segang and Seren are, from other campaigns).
I've used it, yes.
Yep, I am!
I've used it.
I'll be out of town until Sunday. Bot me as reqd.

Okay cool - I'm going to set up a Roll20 game and email out invites... will do that this weekend.
Sorry for the delay... I just sent out e-mail invites to the Roll20 campaign. Once you accept and join, I'll be able to assign ownership of your tokens.
The Carowyn Manor map is loaded. I'll post what Abby sees after work today.
Gazebo looks like an Abby thought bubble
Sorry I took a while to accept. I've been traveling the last couple days.
