Do i need to roll perception to see if i notice the signed roster?

Audia - you can pick it up and read it without any issue, you really only need to roll perception to search for hidden items or to spot something in a spontaneous way.

Roll for HP, but reroll 1's.

I wasnt sure which rule you were using so I went to the first page of the discussion thread. This was what I found in the beginning.

Well I'll be, I thought I was doing it the other way. Nevermind then.

Honestly "minimum of half" is a way better system. Keeps everybody with balanced hitpoints in case things go south in a fight. I would rather use that one in the future, can I just keep my 8 and we start with it next lvl?

;P

Works for me.

I have not finished leveling Dwalindor to 4th. I was waiting to see what cash we had for equipment purchases.

the loot spread sheet has the numbers in there, it sounds like they may go up slightly if we are lucky.

So about 2700gp each?

yep, closer to 2800

3d8 ⇒ (8, 6, 4) = 18

working on lots now, I also made a mistake in the money, I forgot there are only 3 of us left, who get paid form that and the others get paid from their loot coming in.

ok DM I grouped the loot sheet.

Green=Jewlery types
Red=Weapons
Blue=Armor
Yellow=Clothing
Grey=Decoration for a home
Pink=Serving stuff
Maroonish/Red=Other

So one more question on the loot (I have not made any purchases for Dwalindor yet). With the new 3-way split and the auction...how much cash in-hand do we have for purchases and how much do we need to wait until the action completes before we receive the gold?

Dwalindor was going to purchase a +1 weapon (or upgrade) and was waiting to see if we have the ~2300gp or not already.

And as a follow-up, how many charges were left on the party CLW wand and do we want to contribute to any other party support items?

To be honest, I'm not keeping track of the charges on the wand. I probably could, but I was trusting you guys to be honest.

Which means I can't any longer in case one of you people tries to take advantage since you're Neutral.

ಠ_ಠ

Anyway, the money should be available after the auction. Once the panic subsides, the auction house will be able to pay you since the bidders had to deposit a reserve. Totally not pulling that out of my rear end.

Edit: Oh, and shenanigans aside you'll be able to purchase enchantments soon.

Quite soon.

I have track of the wand. I think in the loot sheet. I did not so the math of how much cash on hand we had

I have updated the Campaign Info tab with a map of Wati and a description of the locations on the map.

I've also placed some characters inactive - I don't think I hit anybody currently playing but please check for me on the Players tab.

Hey Dwalindor and Calin each of you gets 3549 gold

you others? nothing!!!

unless you want some of the new items.

Wouldn't Albus get his share of the loot from the second exploration site?

And when I get back home this afternoon I'll see what we can do about extra gold/items for you Albus to get you up to level 4 gear from level 3 gear.

I thought albus was coming in with level 4 loot. oops

Honetly I didnt do that other math, and now it is all deleted, and I didnt keep it separated out as what was from where...

D'oh! I'll work with Albus then to get him the loot he should have.

Me wants my shiny.
Shiiiiny!

Its fine DM, let me know what you decide and I will write it down. On a side note carnival just started here in Rio de Janeiro. Its the city's biggest holiday of the year and last a full week. I will probably be drunk a lot of it and I am helping organize one of the street parties, so please DMNPC Albus as needed, not sure how much online time I will manage.

/sadface

Me wants my shiny.
Shiiiiny!

You'll get retroactive shiny sadly. But oh, the wonders!

Copy I'll add it to my list. Enjoy carnival. Don't blame you for not posting.

Indeed, wee bit jealous about Carnival enjoy.

Albus will be botted heroically. If we level up while you're drinking I think I'll take a level in Paladin, Albus is a stand up guy :D

Oh thank you, I knew I could count on you to take good care of him.

On a sidenote: Beatles, as you guys probably haven't seen before.

I want you/Medley

Arrr, me mateys.

No that's not the DM slipping out of character, but here's some news.

As some of you know, and some of you don't, the current campaign we're playing was born when fellow players and I in a Skulls & Shackles campaign were not quite sure if our DM was coming back to the game after a prolonged absence and I offered to DM that game (he did come back, then he left again. Hi Sumak!)

Well, I'd been getting an itch to play pirate again so I was trying to put together a RL table to play the AP and it was *this* close to working when some folks backed out on me. Since I don't have a printer to create maps and hate Kinkos I might have dodged a bullet there.

So I'm going to be starting the S&S AP as a PbP here on the Paizo boards with some of the players I'd signed on at the start of the RL table.

So just FYI I'll be DM'ing two, yes, two AP's on the boards. Apparently I'm not satisfied making an ass of myself for only one group of players. But I won't be losing focus on making this AP as entertaining as I possibly can, at least until you guys break the damage curve permanent and one-shot the end boss.

Tl;dr - if you haven't had enough of me DM'ing for a lifetime and/or are dying to play pirate let me know. I'll be throwing the board open for recruitment later this week and from what I've seen S&S games fill up fast. I'm looking for two or three more players.

As of now one of the RL players, our very own Calin, is playing a brawler and I haven't gotten a character whipped up for the other RL guy I know. Rest assured however that if you do wish to pick up a cutlass and raid the shipping lanes that I'll try just as hard, if not harder, to kill them as I would you.

Oo I wanna play. My brawler is already in another game but I could come up with something for sure!

That'd be great. I don't think I could handle two brawlers in the same game. Well, maybe with lots of archers.

Oh I meant I'll make something totally different

I gathered :D I just didn't relish the prospect of two brawlers because it would swamp all non-ranged folks.

Any odd race options available? Goblin w a heart of gold?

Let me check the Shackles books and I'll put up rules. Probably no on the goblin though.

But with a heart of gold man!!!

But a heart of gold!!

Maybe I'll make a wizard. I never play wizards

Ah, wizard. Easy to love in theory, but I have a hard time playing them at low level. Or I did in 3.5, never played one in Pathfinder before.

Maybe I'll make one of those wierd elemental wizards

I'll make a sylph wood wizard and yes I have a reason for the air race to be wood connected

Arrr, me mateys.

I have played book 1 of the S&S AP three times here on the boards and DMed it for my RL table once. As a result I dont ever want to see Scourge and Plugg again, ever!

But if one day you find yourself in need for more players for book 2 please let me know. I really like that AP and would love to play the rest of it. I could bring Skulls or somebody else.

Note: I will be at a work event this afternoon so after about 11 AM I'm going radio-silent until about 5 PM. Don't worry about reviewing and updating until then.

Unrelated to the rest of you so ignore! :D

MiniGM, I'll take half +1.

and now for your edification

7d8 ⇒ (6, 3, 2, 1, 3, 8, 3) = 26

you chose well grasshopper

After a bunch of reading on Alchemy vis-à-vis the Attack of Opportunity I've decided that Alchemy is pretty darn weirdly thought out.

I personally have always thought of Alchemy as a flavor version of spellcasting and extracts as drinking a potion but apparently there's quite a bit of argument about this that mostly comes down to RAI/RAW/ DM fiat arguments so to prevent confusion I thought I'd lay down some ground rules that make sense in my head.

First, extracts consumed or used (as described in the spell/formula description) as a standard action provoke an Attack of Opportunity as a spell would. They cannot be interrupted short of a disarm maneuver however, and there's no concentration check needed to ensure you finish drinking the extract.

Extracts consumed or used as a swift action, either through the spell description, Potion Glutton feat, or a magic item such as a sipping jacket do not provoke Attacks of Opportunity.

Also I've read on the boards that Alchemists can't create magic items - this is crazy town as far as I'm concerned. If you have the equivalent feat and formula for a magic item you can craft said item "alchemically" - it will work exactly like a magic item.

Rameth, this pretty much affects you right now so if you have any questions or think I've left something out let me know.

I pretty much agree with you DM

The weird things to keep in mind is that in some cases the extract is more powerful, such as enlarge person is only a standard, not a full round

The trade off is that you can't modify them with metamagic (this is why when we were discussing potion glutton being used for extracts I limited it myself to say three, that i have prepared on my belt)

As far as provoking goes, what I was getting at is that the drinking of the extract definitely provokes, but I was saying that the standard action to breathe the fire doesn't provoke. But I was fine with either happening.

I think when it comes to crafting items there are probably some that don't make sense, but in general i think that there is no reason they shouldn't. I have never had an issue with it in my games, though I only occasionally allow crafting.

In some games crafting just makes sense - like S&S where there are literally days/weeks/months where you'll have downtime built into the adventure.

In others like, say, Jade Regent where you're battling to free Minkai from the underground it may make less sense.

I don't really have an issue with crafting because it uses a feat which for a caster of any kind is a large investment.

Sorry for the gaps today guys, just not feeling it is all.

But so close to killing not one but two PC's! MWA HA HA HA HA!

Well, I may have been nice and not pretty much killed one just now, but still, I feel better about this encounter now.

Frankly you guys tear through things so fast I worry the game's boring.

Is this written for 4 characters or are these later ones for 6. I am fine with the pace myself, but as a Gm I know I like to feel like it is a challenge to the party.
