Find someone to hop in? Especially if they don't mind picking up Tariq or Shad

Do you think anyone would actually hop in to a...geez, 7 year old game for book 6?

I'm not being sarcastic by the way, I'm not sure anyone would.

Hmmm I could run Tariq and just stabby stabby. Just how does his attacks work?

Pretty much he does a full attack when he can and has Ba'set pounce.

It's not that exact but he does like to flank?

If you both/all would be interested, to help fill out our party, my son may be willing to participate.

He is 12 and has played in games for PFS and SFS, albeit at lower levels.
He has been reading some of our gameplay thread for awhile and enjoys reading about our misadventures.

But I also understand if that would impede the more mature playstyles, topics or language people may want to explore or enjoy.

Just throwing it out there since it may be hard to find anyone to join late in this AP. I do not have a preference either way. Especially if any other players join or rejoin our ranks.

Sounds good to me. I'm playing more light heartedly so I will lay off of any mature stuff.

We had some more mature banter between Tariq and Dwalindor regarding their exploits in the past, so I don't want to infringe on that part if GM or Tariq are even a bit reluctant.

As an alternative, I have a couple steady players in the Hells Rebels AP I am running I could ask, but starting in at 14th level and skipping character development may be too much of a jump for them.

I'm more than happy to have him hop in if he'd like! We have one book left after all.

Ok - thanks. I will let him know. He wanted to try a summoner if that is ok. He can build it and introduce whenever appropriate in-game.

And just to be clear, are both Tariq and Shad out for the last book? Or hopefully, one/both can rejoin. I just was not sure if we were botting both.

Honestly I don't know what happened to Mini - haven't heard from him. I'm assuming Tariq is coming back when everything settles down but am not sure.

Given the linear nature of the AP (and after all this time you'd think I knew better than to start a game book 1 - I don't btw) they can tag along and jump back in whenever.

If he wants to play summoner that's fine, we can have him show up as soon as you finish this section.

Sounds good. Tariq will be good to have. Hopefully all is improving in RL.

He fulfills an essential trap finding role. Having 4 PCs will be good to finish. I am not sure 3 will be enough from the AP finales I have seen.

We placed a link to summoner in Recruit thread. 14th levels land standard gold by level.

Several people have just dropped of the boards without a peep. These days we have fire, plague and war so I am no longer surprised by anything.

Edit: He has cheese! Excellent!

I wonder what could have caused the shift - I know there's been some sort of controversy but I'm not sure that causes the issue? Just hard to say in general.

Within the bowl you find the Pharaoh's Key (the item you were sent to retrieve), a scroll of greater planar binding, and two oils of life as made by a philosopher's stone.

Dwalindor scratches his beard some more

This is making my head hurt you know. he grumbles rhetorically.

Knowledge (dungeoneering) : 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (20) + 8 = 28
Knowledge (geography) : 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (19) + 10 = 29
Knowledge (history) : 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12
Knowledge (nature) : 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 24
Knowledge (local) : 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (12) + 12 = 24

Dang - that is about as good as he is going to get for a sage-barbarian

What were the rolls for Dwalindor?

oh, sorry - I think there was a cached post and I thought we were trying to figure out the key and a puzzle...like...or maybe how to find our way back out...and to make it worse, I put them in discussion... DOH!

Ok, so are we at the end of the book where we will be moving to the next chapter and swapping in/out characters yet? Or do we still have a ways to go?

I would vote to keep the lady (monster) unless we are botting Tariq and/or Shad etc. Whatever to round out the party or get us to 3-4 viable actors.

Once we move to the next book, my son's summoner and eidolon could presumably join...with Tariq or Shad or both, but would not want Jazzy-lady to go beyond the wrap up. Don't trust her, nope!

We can always use Tariq and Shad as emergency rations!

End of the chapter, on to Chapter 6!

I can post the end scene when you guys are ready for book 6 - it moves straight into the desert and into the pyramid of Hakotep.

You're going to be level 15 now by the way!

Honestly I think I'm holding you guys back more than the other way around but we probably want to up the posting rate to maybe twice a day if possible?

Toot! Toot! Warp 10 Scotty!

I can try to post more - and same for my son. Should I have him bump to 15th as well? You probably haven't had a chance to check his character yet, but if you see anything you want to change, let us know. :)

Meanwhile I will be adding the 'pyramid breaker' rage power to Dwalindor. :)

Yes, 15th is where he should start - I haven't seen it, where is it?

Level 15

HP 4+2 CON +1 Toughness= +7
+1 Bab
+1 Reflex
+1 Channel die (8d6)

+1 Perception
+2 Disable Device

Background
Know-Planes +2

+1 5th Level spell
+1 8th level spell

Feat:
Extra Channel

Yes, 15th is where he should start - I haven't seen it, where is it?

He posted over in the Recruitment Thread. Ozymandius

Ok, Dwalindor is updated to 15th (including Ring of Free Action from loot)- - and assumed party took the rest - but we can re-adjust as needed.

+7 HP + CON
+1 BAB
+1 Fort
+1 Survival

Rage Power - Knockdown (trip)

Within the bowl you find the Pharaoh's Key (the item you were sent to retrieve), a scroll of greater planar binding, and two oils of life as made by a philosopher's stone.

silver-and-jasper ankle bracelet worth 250 gp inset with three elemental gems (air, earth and fire), a +2 earth outsider bane khopesh (its hilt indicates the weapon’s name in Ancient Osiriani is “Duhua,” meaning “vortex”), a 1-foot-high malachite statuette of a jackal-headed man worth 750 gp which has an internal compartment that holds a golembane scarab, and a wand of lightning bolt whose carvings mirror the runes on the map.

I never went back to the last time we leveled and see what the total haul was. 18k for the kopesh, 2.5k for each elemental gem, scarab, wand etc. But does that cover all we found since the level up? I am not sure if there is an easy way to search back through all those posts.

The oils of life are keepers.

I have no idea how to search back. Easy rule of thumb for us is look at your loot and if you're under WBL adjust up.

LOL - ok that works too :)

Just for kicks, created this...appreciate all you have done getting us to this point, GM DMummy!!!

The Final Party?

Any resemblance to real persons in our party is purely coincidental.

Lulz.

Love it!

Let me know if you to buy something I guess! Otherwise mosey on through the gate to Book Siiiiiiixxxxx.

Yeah - I could not think of anything good. Had the ring and stuff we found. so just keeping that. Ozy spent all his starting money.

So how much do we have? I'd like to bump my Cloak of Resistance up +1. Hmm maybe my Mace to +3 so I can melee after a good Divine Power/Righteous Might

Wealth by level in Herolab was about 185k. So I think we increased by 40k (if we sell everything -that was the price of the ring of free movement)

Level 15 WBL is 240,000 gp according to the PFSRD.

Well that just sounds crazy…crazy awesome. I must have been looking in herolab before the level up to 15th!

Already kept the ring of free action (40K)

Ok, went shopping - we can say with the merchant...up to 238K in gear now.

Upgraded Hammer (Amanda) with "Called" special property

Upgraded cloak from +3 to +4 (7k)

Swapped boots of cat for snapleaf and bought boots of flying (16k)

Added "Comfort" to his armor so he doesn't have to upset Noonan by sleeping in his red PJ's

It is only scary when the back flap falls open.

Pahmets have sand everywhere. Just saying.

Add Undead Bane to mace (10k)
Upgrade Cloak from +2 to +3 (2500)

That is about it unless there are suggestions

How much do you have left? I am always a fan of lesser strand of prayer beads for emergencies. Slotless item. Maybe over priced but has saved my bacon more than once.

Do you have a pearl of power?

Nope

If we will keep using the dropbox for maps, I may need to work on Ozy's to get an account. I know he can use googleslides. I am not sure about the other 'live' tabletop tool we tried earlier...I do not have it on my travel laptop while I am out of town.

We tried Roll20 but Tariq couldn't get it to work on his phone/tablet.

I don't really use Google Slides but I suppose we couild try it?
