I've been wanting to play a wizard for a while. But the gunslinger has become more appealing to me of late.
I love the flavor of the gunslinger in Golarion. they're suitably rare and easily removed if you're not into them, but man the pirate stuff is awesome...
Anyway, I know it's been a long time since being up top in the game, but you're currently deciding to try to kill the most powerful crime lord in the city (who currently opposes the queen if even indirectly.) The party's decision is yours to make, but your characters would have a much healthier appreciation for the power Arkonas wields.
The next update from me will be massive as we are starting chapter IV. This means I have a lot to do:
1. Large prose recap of chapter III.
2. Video #4 for the Harrowing.
3. Large prose intro to chapter IV.
4. Massive Obsidian Portal update.
This is going to take me a fair amount of time, but I'm hoping to be done by Monday. (Rise of the Runelord Players, with a bit of help we can film tonight. That would make my life easier.)
Update all... Vanessa and I were both accepted into Georgetown University for a Master's program in Emergency and Disaster Management. We start this August.
Grats! I shall endeavor to make children more scientifically literate so that you can hire people who aren't stupid.
Thanks from both of us!
Hey gang, back in the saddle. St. Paddy's season kicked me arse! Last weekend alone 640 miles and 30+ hours on stage. Looks like we're about to board a ship, cool!
Congrats Adam and Vanessa the Viking Princess. I think it's hilarious that players with characters bent on total destruction are studying disaster management.
Damn Degrog if you were anywhere near Fayetteville and didn't let me know ........
But glad you made it back safe.
now back to the story thread.
Hey gang, back in the saddle. St. Paddy's season kicked me arse! Last weekend alone 640 miles and 30+ hours on stage.
I forgot that St Patricks would be a huge working weekend for you Reagh.
Its been a while but my shift used to go down to this Irish bar in DC right after our shift and start drinking by 9-10 in the morning. Then be done by 12-1pm and go home to sleep for a few hours before having to come back into work that evening.I of course never drank but would be tired. I dont see how the other people did it barely being sober by the time they came into work.

I believe you have answered your own question
Keen observation, Mike. I drank copious amounts of whiskey just to stay awake - this could only make sense to an Irish musician, or Service personnel (or a Dwarf).
Do any of you watch Community?
If the answer is no, or if it's yes and you've not seen the last episode, you need to make time for it. Right now if you can.
Episode is titled, "Advanced Advanced Dungeons & Dragons", and it is worth your time and efforts. It's the second D&D episode they've done, and it is really something to see.
I second Tony's recommendation. You should be watching Community is general anyway, but the D&D episodes are great.
That's fine by me.
Don't forget my armor also.
I did, in fact, forget your armor. Please remind me of what you're looking for!

otherwise very nice.
Hey y'all, what's the best way to quickly access the back story referred to with the current NPC's, etc. I've picked up some from recent recaps, but am quite lost hearing a lot of these references for the first time.

Ferox's back story involves giant toads and some other messed up stuff. Read at your own risk...

Looking through posts, I believe you're looking to add the Deathless to your current +1 armor. so, going +1 to +2 would cost 1,500 gp and 3 days' time--assuming we find someone who can cast Death Ward who will work with Morkeleb. The gp cost does not account for that other person.
S, how should we handle that?
Death Ward? You should handle that by requesting that your trip stop in Kaer Maga for 3 days.

I'm heading out to San Diego for a couple of days. I likely won't be posting 'till we're back mid-week.
Have fun (?)

Cool, thanks
clarification on current downtime: Sandor needs 3 days for his armor, and we need access to the Deathward spell. You'd said we could spend 3 days in Kaer Maga. Do we just add that to the downtime we currently have, or od we need to arrange for that special?
Also, if Morkeleb wants to gain "Magic" during downtime, is that location-specific, or can it be applied anywhere?
That down time will have to be separate.
OK--so Sandor, we'll have to make special arrangements for your Deathless armor. Sorry! :-(
DAY 1: transferring scrolls to spellbook. 3 scrolls (Fly, Phantasmal Steed, Make Whole) 8 hours, 220 gp.
DAY 2-7: work on Headband of Intelligence boost from +2 to +4. 6 days remain.
DAY 8: scribing scrolls. 1 scroll of Fly & Phantom Steed. 750 gp value (cost 375), 1 day.
DAY 9-10: Works on building Magic capital, using Alchemy skill.
Day 9: = 2 Magic
Day 10: = 3 Magic
5 magic total, spend 250 gp
Question: can we find buyers, considering our current situation, for the goodies we've got??
Chris, how big is the town we're in, for the purposes of earning capital?
Would "Research Facts and Lore" and "Scheme for an upcoming adventure" be appropriate uses for capital here?
Yes you may earn capital that way here. Unfortunately I can't get to the city stats until after school.
Hey gang, had my head buried in the king's taxes. Unless it's especially useful, DeGrog is happy to drink and sharpen his cutlass during this so-called 'downtime'. He doesn't have tons of cash to spend, but could be a bouncer or do some manual labor somewhere.
Hello all... sorry have been busy for a bit... so downtime How I hate thee
I still have a weak understanding of how these new downtime rules work. Apparently you either loose the business, or it becomes a money pit if your out of contact for more than 30 days even if you have a "manager" there. So I'm sure we will be gone from the City for longer than that. What a huge waste of resources that turned out to be. If I'm wrong than please let me know.
So for Downtime I will be doing things the old way.
Day 1: Imbue my shield with Magic to make it a +1 333gp
Day 2: Imbue Odric's Spare MW Chainmail suit with Magic +1 333gp (-166GP Each)with Odric's approval.
Day 3-9: Sell Chainmail +575GP (+287GP Each) with Odric's Approval (+131GP Net Odric -202GP Net Sandor)
Anyone have any requests for additional Magic to their Armor or shield?

You took Craft Arms/Armor?

Day 3-9: Sell Chainmail +575GP (+287GP Each) with Odric's Approval (+131GP Net Odric -202GP Net Sandor)
Question: why not just let Odric use one of the existing + chainmail, rather than imbuing one, and selling another?

I don't want to use chain mail, I'm wearing Deathless full plate… Why would you need my permission to do anything with the old chain mail? Let's sell it.

Yes I have had Mastercraft Armor for awhile now...
I figured that you wouldn't have any problems selling Odric's old armor. It was just worth spending one day to increase it's value and selling it.... Wait I need to redo my math.. I didn't include the MW value on the armor.
I think I did my math wrong... ok revised figures
Change of Wealth:
- Odric: -166+(650/2)= +159
- Sandor: -499+325= -174
Values:
- MW Mithril Shield 1170GP
- MW Chain Value= 300
- Adding +1 Magic 1,000/3=333GP
Costs:
- Sandor: 333+(333/2)=499
- Odric 333/2=166
Shield (Sandor has all the costs): 333GP &1 day to create
MW Chainmail (Odric and Sandor Share costs and revenue): 333/2GP=166 &1 Day to create. Changes it's value to 1300 (Sell Value 650)
Change of Wealth:
- Odric: -166+(650/2)= +159
- Sandor: -499+325= -174
Maybe in the context of a conversation or explanation I could follow, but at this moment, I am staring, mouth open and lightly pounding the side of my head with the palm of my hand. I have a befuddled look on my face and as I pound my head I shake it as though to clear the confusion. This is an expression Mike and S will recognize if they picture Jim saying something cryptic to O-Sensei on any given Saturday circa 1996.
I prefer to picture the expression you had when S paired us off upon my return to the school and I did 19 combination on you (because I wasn't confident in my ability to roll you, I surprised you by essentially picking you up and flipping you over. You were visibly delighted)
Right, but Joe has me dumbfounded not flabbergasted.
Sorry for the slow advance guys. This chapter is markedly different than the first three. I'm still prepping. Meanwhile I can advance the plot a bit.... after work today.
Right, but Joe has me dumbfounded not flabbergasted.
Mayhap "Flummoxed," or even "bamboozled??"

I'm sorry to be a wet blanket, but I don't think you can enchant armor, Sandor. Master Craftsman allows you to qualify for Craft Magic Arms/Armor. It doesn't actually give you the benefits of that feat. I didn't see the Craft feat in your feat list. If I overlooked it, I apologize.
Saw these and thought of Mike.

They should give you a free magic missile "to hit" die that has all 20s on it.
