Hey guys, I drew Vashi. Here's what she looks like if anyone's interested: Vashi
Her left leg is transparent?
No. She's wearing tights.
Iskender, your action for this round?
Doh! Sorry!
Each of the Klaven had two potions of cure light wounds, a masterwork net, a masterwork shortspear, and 63 gp. One of them also had an odd flat glass thing that, when you touch it, makes an image appear in the air of the three of you.
Kit,
You tracking loot?
12 CLW potions
6 MW Nets
6 MW short spears
398 gp
An odd flat glass thing that when we touch it makes an image appear in the air of the three of us.
Loot has been updated. Do we want to divvy up the potions and when do we meet the newbies?
Just saying, but you guys might want to... say... actually look inside the wagon before you finish stealing it and dumping a pile of pointy things in it.
Hahaha, we get it!
12 MW weapons is 3600 gp right there, well, 1800 I guess.
Do we have one or two carts and beasts of burden we can sell (or keep if we want travel around and tour the countryside.) :D
From what I understand, we have one of each
Yes, one cart and one beast of burden. For purposes of stats, assume it's equivalent to a heavy horse.
Quick question before I move us along--do you want to acknowledge Hilde and Min's absence in-game, or just have them vanish from everyone's memory? I have some thoughts on how it could work in-game, but I'm afraid it might become a bit of a plot tumor if we're not careful.
If no one cares, I'll just have them vanish. It's easier and less likely to become a huge side plot.
I'll get the plot rolling again on Monday if none of you have things you want to specifically do over the next couple in-game weeks.
They can watch the hideout and if we ever get the gates working, we can geab them. They will be busy keeping our street safe. :P
Any option is fine.
Maybe I'll go with that, Kit. :D
I am sure that will keep them both 'busy' until it is time to go! ;)
I have a party of dwarves I'm running through Giantslayer and they just lost their cleric. If anyone is interested in playing a healing type character who must be a dwarf? The gameplay thread is here. They are currently 6th level.
That sounds awesome! Oh wait, I’m already in that game!
Random off topic gaming geek thing: So, if you've never watched "The Expanse," you're missing out. First of all, it's excellent Sci Fi, and as my pedigree for watching Sci Fi goes back to watching Star Wars on screen in 1977, I've watched some good (and terrible) Sci Fi. Ok, so the TV series (3 seasons so far, and season 4 is coming) is based on a series of books. Naturally there are differences between the shows and the books, these things happen.
Ok, here's the gamer geek part! What a lot of people don't realize, is that the books are based on the authors' home Sci Fi RPG. So, it's a little funny that a home RPG game turned into a series of books, and then a TV series, and then an actual RPG. Oh, and I've RPG'd since 1978, so I've been around that block too.
Now the really funny part, to me at least. While reading book 3, there's a scene where the characters, whom I view as "the PCs" are about to go into the final fight against the BBEG and the minions, etc. One of the PCs turns to the other (in the book, but I don't think I recall it from the show) and asks, "so if you die, can I have your stuff?" I nearly spit out my drink at that point. How many times have I heard that line, and ones nearly identical to it come out at a gaming table? And to have it copied right from, I'm sure, their gaming table into the book was priceless.
Anyways, enough off-topic geek speak from me!
XD
This Saturday I will be visiting family for two weeks. I will try to post but feel free to bot me as necessary.
All right! Hopefully we'll be finishing this combat soon.
Loot
5x chain mail
5x sap
5x potion of cure light wounds
5x javelin
5x masterwork warhammer.
The module's description of this is kind of vague, so I had to debate on exactly how the chime of opening would interact with it. Since the other option was to get only two of the five successes necessary to open it the 'right' way, I thought you might prefer this result.
Someone in the party should definitely take Disable Device, though.
The funny thing is, the module doesn't even say what was in that box.
One thing I think may not have been made clear up to this point--Zel-Argose is a wretched hive of scum and villany. The Coteries that control the city are basically warring criminal cartels. Order is only maintained in the city because none of them want to kill the golden goose of taxing gate travel--as a hub city for the gates, Zel-Argose is wealthy largely through trade (and 'taxing' that trade).
This module is unfortunately very railroaded. :/ Not even some suggestions of what to do if the party doesn't go right along with everything.
Not that I can't adapt if we have to.
This isn't a Paizo product so I guess the writers are writing under their own code of morality.
It's just a very morally objectionable thing to ask of the PCs. Some parties may not mind at all, but others will abjectly refuse.
The family and I are heading out of town for a week.
I would expect that I'll be able to post again next Saturday. GM, please bot me and keep me alive!
It's just a very morally objectionable thing to ask of the PCs. Some parties may not mind at all, but others will abjectly refuse.
Yeah, that's why I'm more than a little surprised by them not even discussing alternatives.
There's always the unspoken alternative of going on a murderous rampage, but that's not really less objectionable. And it sounds like this place isn't even fully developed, so you'd just have to make it's defenses up.
Actually things here are statted up enough to deal with that. You might not want to try at this level.
So, does it list at all what this 'property' is, or are we supposed to have no idea what we're trying to retrieve without damaging?
It's deliberately being kept secret from you.
Wonderful. We don't even know what we're trying not to damage. This will certainly end well and not in a chaotic mess of blood and fire.
I guess you'll just have to be careful with it. :D
Any last questions before Mr. Sarlu dismisses you?
Let me know when you're ready to enter the Emporium.
Looking for inputs from the team on an approach method for this guy. Some way to get the talk going, and you know, make killing him his own fault, hahaha.
Do note we need to get the whatever intact, and he may not be carrying it on him. Dakkar may not look sneaky, but he can actually stalk things pretty well.
I might suggest, if you have no other ideas, sending the most discrete members of your party to scout things out.
I’m a little hazy on which ones those are, haha.
We can always just knock on the door and say that word on the street is they are hiring and we are looking for work...
Dakkar is actually *decent* at stealth, though he's not up to rogue standards. But he had been figuring he could try to stalk this guy a bit.
It being summer, it's time for the family and me to head off for a week of vacation. Be back next Saturday!
So...Is the plan to have Dakkar follow the guy for a day and then see how we want to proceed?
Up to you guys. Admittedly around here Dakkar doesn't stand out any more than the humans do.
We're in no hurry right, so why not?
