I feel you on the windows thing, my signals rather spastic at night and I can never trust my windows to actually load unless I'm staring at them.
The underdark is never boring though.
The last time I got into the underdark we rolled a purple worm random encounter first thing.
Kill it, turn it into a bus with animate dead, bypass 90% of the things that the GM intended for us to encounter.
Our GM was rather chagrined at this turn of events.
On the plus side we don't encounter purple worms anymore.
lmao! Undead Purple Worm bus for the win!
My DM had a thing for using Succubi, a lot. My first cursed item allowed me to avoid energy drain or the equivalent back then, much to his displeasure.
Don't know if I told you the story or not but I have a detailed post about the campaign in a nut shell and all and all it was a riot.
Though our party was usually 10+ members so it was slow going lol. And drinking and smoking weed (Which I didn't do and still don't) didn't help either. All and all it was a good excuse to get away from the parents and hang with friends lol.
I'd imagine most everyone deep into this hobby has some sort of gaming 'wild west' stories to tell.
Several of my early groups were like the one your describe, so I totally get the vibe on that one.
As to succubi I actually just recently encountered one, there is a rather amusing encounter in ROTRL involving them. Suffice to say my GM was not excited when I informed him my bard was burning a scroll of lesser wish in order to give into that fever dream of lust and survive.
If this cleric is of similar power to the sister she just decapitated then between Jen and Jaeger she just got KO'd. If those blows landed that is.

I've decided that Cyra is the fish whisperer. Three Spanish mackerel to my zero....
Oh if only my abilities extended on over to money instead of just fish, we would be all set! But I'll take what I can get...

Money shmoney, I have a sexy gothic gothic gamer geek wife. Who also loves to go fishing and outdoors with me. Others may think they have the perfect wife, but they're wrong cause I do.
And I am back. Internet went out which sucked. Hard. Its break up season for the ice up here and it was quite awesome to watch the comm tower go down like a skyscraper when a massive sheet of ice slammed into it like a battering ram. Slow gold clap I even saluted it as it went down like a battleship.
So playing catch up!
So we've got 3 rooms to potentially explore from here.
The door to the north that leads to H10, where the clerics came from.
the door to the east that leads to H4, where the mongrelman that was feared ran and a third door that nothing has come out of yet.
Any thoughts on the order? I'd kind of like to open the unopened door just to see more of the shape of this place.
Following the path the clerics took to get here will likely get us to the more important bits sooner though.
I'm really really tempted to work my way into shadowdancer....normally as thematic as the class is you lose to much but if we go gestalt it's all "free". It would also be a great way of saying his demonic powers are growing.
For shadowdancer, the real issue is the feats required to access the class, feats being one of the few things you don't get more of as a Gestalt* unless you've built with it in mind those requirements are going to hurt. The biggest draw the prestige class hass in my opinion.
That being said the dancers shadow companion is a brutal pet to have.
STR damage touch attacks add up quickly and the advantages of an incorporeal scout are significant.
*aside from class/race based bonus feats
Primalist bloodrager would be able to trade in one of the powers of your bloodline for two barbarian rage powers.
Which would then let you blood rage while you bloodrage
Hrmm... strange that they didn't write an exclusion for bloodragers on that somewhere.
Would mean you could get the bloodrage of your choice and then add flavoring of another lineage through the rage powers.
The 3rd party shadow bloodline looks pretty cool.
So Lasciel can levitate up and screen everybody in her cloud. It'll make her a huge target but her Ac's bumped up right now. Bear in mind if she gets shot and Jen proceeds to heal the people doing the shooting she's going to have some very unangelic things to say.
Taking a full defensive would give you an additional +4AC.
I'd been considering how hard it would be to just grab one or two from the bottom of the hole with an improvised lasso but it seemed too complex to work in actuality.
However with the levitation effect you could hover up and drag them by the ankles into the shaft, drop them into their own fog and split the battle so not just one person has to take the entirety of them.
crunch wise if my guess is right and this actually is a stinking cloud we just have to wait a little bit for it to dissipate. Stinking cloud is 1 round/CL.
Jen doesn't have the knowledge arcana check or spellcraft check to get a positive ID on that though.
As to being a bleeding heart, well I imagine Jen will make the right choice when it will be needed. Doubtless Jen will have plenty of cultist and demon blood on her hands by the end of this all.
So are we going for the guarded well or one of the three other doors?
Will get a post up later today, flying. A lot for training for going back to an old roll. They dropped it on me a couple days ago and I have been too busy to post hardly at all. Should have one up this evening. Apologies for the wait.
So I take no one has objections to the closest door then?
Man I can't catch a break. INternet is horrid up here.I might get one post in before it crashes. Using my phone now that it reset.
I'm still amused by the mental image of a lizard the size of a large dog leaping out of a barrel of smoked fish and trying to eat Jen.
I am amused by this attempt at animal friendship.
Worst case we beat it unconscious and make friends with it later.
Jaeger, you want to smack this lizard?
He doesn't seem friendly and your wife is in snacking range.
Internet is totally cutting out again at work, not been an easy time. Will get posts up in next couple hours. Apologies for the wait.
Anyone else feel like punching the lizard as it does its best to eat Jen? I somehow get the feeling that my attack roll isn't going to cut it what with the penalty for being grappled and attacking from a grapple equaling each other out.
I'm starting to feel bad, Jen always going first. lmao
See the great thing about being a paladin is i have the HP to burn and the saves to eat traps for breakfast.
