Okay, I'll get him looked at this evening and post notes. Let's plan to start on Monday. I have posted a "what has come before" post in the gameplay thread, but let's assume that we kick off on Monday then, as ( may have mentioned this before) I assume the weekend posting is not mandatory, since I am usually away from my computer on Saturday and some Sundays.)
** Etna spoiler **
...
...
Finally got around to fixing and updating.
I do have 4th level spells (I don't have 5th level spells)
Current Tiefling Bloodline was reflavoring of Rakasha bloodline
+4 Cha is because I rolled for alternate SLA and got +2Cha, and with +2 racial already it became +4.
For skills I forgot to add the background skills as I was interrupted, and did quick calc to get base skill points and forgot FC is not with PrCs
corset of the Vishkanya is more of a flavor item choice that'll be helpful in small spaces given her figure...
You are correct about your spells Etna (been meaning to post a correction, but life and whatnot). Other than that, once you get your character sheet converted to my template, you will be good to go.
First off, please use the template provided to post your character.
Second, your base reflex save is off by one (you get 1 from paladin and 2 from sentinel)
Also, your AC is tracking a +3 deflection bonus to AC that I don't see anywhere on your character sheet. What am I missing?
Your damage bonus is really high for your melee weapons. By my count, it should be 7 str +2 sacred +1 enchantment, for 10 total for your longsword, and 7 str +1 enhancement, for 8 total for your warhammer. Please let me know how you are getting it that high.
Your diplomacy bonus is also a little high; I count 6 ranks +3 class +4 cha +4 deific obedience +1 ioun stone, for a total of 18. What am I missing?
Also, a quick note about masterwork tools for UMD: you will need to actually pull out your masterwork tool to get the bonus in conjunction with a wand, which means you will need to do...something with your weapon if you attempt to use a wand in combat, and you will in all honesty not be able to use it in combat quickly, as you will need to pull out your wand and tool (a pair of move actions) and then make your check to use it next round.
A quick sidebar about Paladin and UMD: If you use UMD to attempt to use an evil item, it will be an alignment violation (unintentional if you don't know it's evil, intentional if you do).
Equipment: You will need to change your primal iron weapon to something else, as I am not allowing 3rd party sourced stuff. Also, we will be using the errata for clear spindle ioun stones located here. Additionally, could you please provide a link to the longarm spell that you have a wand of? Also, you are over wealth by level, as you have 59,719 gp worth of stuff before you get to your consumables and mundane equipment. All of your gear should total 62000, including any mundane equipment you might have (normally I wouldn't be so strict about equipment for characters of your level, but that is one of the things this adventure uses to increase the challenge).
Additionally, you will need to track which arrows you have stored in your haversack (if any) and which ones you are carrying on your person (for weight and combat-action purposes).
Also, I like the names for your weapons.
You need to change the notation that shows your weapons are holy, cause that is not something you budgeted for. (I'm assuming you're tracking that your weapons do good-aligned damage from Sentinel, but that's different from the Holy weapon enchantment). Also, the bonus good-aligned damage only applies to your deity's favored weapon, not all weapons you wield.
Once you get the above resolved, you should be good to go!
I'll be ready to go tomorrow, prior week was not the best.

I already added the Power attack bonus for wielding the weapon two -handed.
My quickdraw feat and my Quickdraw shield allow me to attack twohanded during my attack and staying with my shield for the rest of the round.Your diplomacy bonus is also a little high; I count 6 ranks +3 class +4 cha +4 deific obedience +1 ioun stone, for a total of 18. What am I missing?

Removed UMD tool. now just 18

ABSOLUTELY I am totally agreed with that!Equipment: You will need to change your primal iron weapon to something else, as I am not allowing 3rd party sourced stuff.
Corrected

OUCH. No problem
Additionally, could you please provide a link to the longarm spell that you have a wand of? Longarm Spell

Non. Arrows are in an extra quiver.
Also, I like the names for your weapons.
Many thanks!You need to change the notation that shows your weapons are holy, cause that is not something you budgeted for. (I'm assuming you're tracking that your weapons do good-aligned damage from Sentinel, but that's different from the Holy weapon enchantment).
Also, the bonus good-aligned damage only applies to your deity's favored weapon, not all weapons you wield.
Changed to good. In my defense it is absolutely strangely written.
Paraphrase: For example, a sentinel of the Inheritor can treat his weapon as axiomatic or holy, but not both.Once you get the above resolved, you should be good to go!
I already added the Power attack bonus for wielding the weapon two -handed.
but you didn't note that anywhere on your sheet, nor did you factor in the penalty to hit from Power attack (as Furious Focus only applies to the first attack you make each round, not all attacks). If you want to switch from two to one handing each round, you'll need to track all types of combat (one-handed no power attack, one-handed power attack, two-handed power attack).
OK, finally ready. RL has been kicking my ass on a daily basis.
Is there a map for this encounter?
I typically do not use maps in PBP, as they tend to slow the game down considerably.
We might have a problem. I'm all about area of effect spells ><
Crapo, need to clarify my armor. I'll try to get to that tomorrow. Sigh.
Leaves me with 8 K. With that I'll acquire 2 Rings of Counterspelling. One with Lightning Bolt cast into it. The other with Fireball cast into it.
Without a map, I really cannot aim any fireballs, so I'd better just delay.
Hello?
anyone?
I'm here and I know our GM is somewhere on the boards, but without proper maps... I'm not sure what I can or cannot hit with my area of effect spells so I'm not really sure how to handle this.
Should I still play an area of effect based character and just continue to ask how many people I can fireball, or switch to a buff based character that is less dependent in map positioning?
Yeah, Amy will have similar problems with spells like confusion and glitterdust. Not having a map is kind of frustrating, but I suppose we can always just say "I place my spell to hit the most enemies possible without hitting any allies" and let the GM figure it out. Seems like a map might be easier all around, though.
I'm still here. As I mentioned in my last post, I'm waiting for everyone to have their characters set up with my templates and then we'll begin.

I'm waiting for everyone to have their characters set up with my templates and then we'll begin.
I've got mine, done.
But As A GM, you should also be allowing for some deviation from your template as the Player might have reasons for their deviation from the base.As long as the info is required is near the same spot it should be more then good enough.
I am fine with that, but we definitely need to have the field information (the stuff in the alignment field, race field, and so on) because if I have to go looking it'll probably triple the amount of time it takes this game to run.
I think I am ready as well.
Same. If we are still waiting for someone, I will inform you if I need to change some things during this period.
Who are we waiting on?
I updated my profile last week or the week before, losing track of time.
Okay, great. Looks like everyone is good to go. Expect a post tomorrow.
Does Mihail see what J'Victus sees? He made a perception check as well.
Yes, that's fine.
Can Mihail cast displacement without alerting the band?
Unfortunately not, because even when invisible casting spells has visible signs that allow for identification.
Do we have a map? I have a hard time picturing our positions. From what I grasped in summary is that Mihail and Amelia are invisible and outside while the rest are inside the house.
Are we waiting on Fuego or are we botting him?
I did not see my initiative rolled so I have no idea when I should go.
Without a map I can't really see what I should be doing, so I figure if Zoren can toss fireballs I should be able to toss fireballs too, so just drop a fireball on where it catches the most bad guys and hopefully not too many good guys.
Sorry, I've been fighting the flu for the past week and a half or so. I'll try to get a post up this evening.
Sorry guys. Flu has been worse than I thought, as I now get coughing fits if I sit up too long. I'll try piecemealing a post.
Okay, so quick update: I'm finally well enough to head back to work, so expect an update tomorrow.
Did Fuego disappear or something? I thought he is with us.
I am around but the GM did not roll my initiative nor did he tell me if I am allowed to join combat.
As it turns out, I will need to withdraw. RL will begin to keep me too busy to play in the number of games I am currently playing in. Thanks for the opportunity DM.
Hrmmm. I thought I mentioned everyone. My bad. Let me fix that.
As far as the question about area of effects goes, I will just assume that you want to hit the most number of people you can without hitting your allies.
Can we get an update on the effectiveness of the last fireball?
Who are we waiting on? Can we bot someone and move forward. It has been over a month with only two rounds of combat.
I asked a question did not get answer, yet
Sorry, I had thought that I answered your question. Yes, you would only provoke 2 AoOs.
To answer the other question, we're still waiting on posts from J'Victus, Mihail, and Ahadiel.
I am at -6 hit points, so my post would be to gurgle some more.
Mihail already acted in round 2. He casted vanish on himself and hid.
I think I am going to bow out of this game. While promising at first, the pace is going too slow for my taste and I dislike the way that the GM run this encounter e.g no map.
