Hooray! Can Hiram purchase a +1 rapier before we begin?

Only if you've got the money for it, do ho ho. Seriously, though, yes. +1 weapons and armour are always available when in a settlement of more than 4000(?) residents (which Absalom handily includes.)

checking in

Will make some purchases...

Checking in, need to possibly make some purchases.

Need to level, but otherwise ready.

We need a cleric? If we dont have one should we recruit for one? A cleric (or oracle) can save us some resources.

I'll note you've made it this far without a cleric...

Cool, I'll spend the 2,320 gp and purchase a +1 rapier!

If we continue to higher tiers with this group I will note that I have both a 3rd and 5th level cleric that are available if needed. If we are in 1-2 we should be fine without though.

Are we doing Tier 1-2 ?

Unsure, it is up to you guys. I have no problems playing up or switching characters if needed.

Pending no new players, everyone is level 2. So we would be subtier 1-2 (exceptionally so with only 5 players). 3-4 would be possible if people brought higher-level characters.

Assuming Harboth is coming, he's level three?

2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 3 = 11

11/5=2.2

Tier 1-2 it is.

I thought we were down a player - with Harboth we should be good.

I might sit this one out, but please let me know when the next one comes around - this is a great group and I've enjoyed playing in it.

That said, if you need a fifth and don't find a good one, I'm sure I could be convinced (or bribed, cajoled, blackmailed, bullied, etc.) to step back in with Harboth or with one of several 1st-level characters and/or concepts.

Cheers!

That's all up to you guys. I do know a guy. Lemme shoot him a PM, see if he's played this or not.

The player that was in the failed one from before, that I mentioned also plays Danyn, GM. If we want a fifth, I'm sure he'd want in.

Or good ol Zantir.

I have been summoned...

Oooh, that summon brute spell does work after all, haha.

Hey Zantir/Opal

That is the lower level version of the spell. The higher level version summons a whole Brute Squad...

Is this what we will be rolling with, or do we want to stuff this like a clown car?

Are there other options? Is Harboth really out?

*shrug* He said was out for this one. Though if he wants it, there's still a seat for him before we start.

Though the Sanos Abduction I was in just ended, which had an Archer Ranger 3rd level and a 3rd-level paladin candidate from my Sanos Abduction, if you want to bid on one of those.

With a full level 2 party, a level 3 character would put us in the next tier. What do you think of the difficulty of the next tier? I thought I heard that this scenario was one of the harder Season 0's.

Oh, yeah, this is a 1-7. I'm so hardwired on the idea that "3 means pick-a-tier." As always, your guys' call.

That is the lower level version of the spell. The higher level version summons a whole Brute Squad...

Does Tim get an honorable mention already for attacking a carnie "test your strength" game?

More players means more places to spread the damage :) that said I'd like to keep it T1-2

If we're staying 1-2, I'd vote for five. Kinda like to play up, though I've heard this one can be hard.

Correcting this.

Spending 2pp on a Holy Symbol Wayfinder - I think of it as a gift from my Family for successfully joining the Order. It is made in the shape of the Symbol of the Godclaw, though still noticeably a wayfinder.

I think thats a better tie to his future direction.

Holy Symbol (2 PP): This wayfinder has been carved or molded to resemble your deity’s holy or unholy symbol and may serve as an icon of both the Pathfinder Society and your chosen faith. You can use a holy symbol wayfinder as a divine focus.

That leaves me 1013gp... and buy an amulet of natural armour +1

Takes me to 13gp.

We can't edit the map.

Ffffffffffuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu---

I think I fixed the settings. Buttons intended for Desktop-use are little on phones.

Probably no posting today during the workday, because the wiring closets that our building have on a few floors have water damage. I'll see what I can do, though.

I’m really sick today, and was yesterday, so posting will be slow until I shake this.

I will be unavailable Friday through Sunday this weekend.

Day Job: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23

Day Job!: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13

To those with no Djob, we salute you

Other are on the way, though now would be the time for future plan discussions.

EDIT 1: PMs with links for Opal and Hiram are out; Please let me know what I messed up when it inevitably happens!

I don't know if I can handle another session right now or not. I am feeling stretched thin at the moment. But I am open to the discussion.

I also need to re-establish Opal in my head. She went through a couple of level 1 rewrites before I settled on her current build. Her personality and focus is feeling a little muddled at the moment.

I also have a level 1 Barbarian who could use some table time, or I could fall back on my level 2 Ranger/Cleric.

Are there any level 1 modules that people would be interested in?

Ander is now third level. Up for anything, picking one Burglar can get credit for; Silent Tide, Murder on Silken Caravan, Frozen Fingers, Tide of Morning, Throaty Mermaid, or Shades of Ice 1/2, all are playable for me.

I can do Tide of Morning, or Throaty Mermaid off that list.

Haven't done Shades of Ice 2 (have done 1), haven't done Silent Tide, Murder on the Silken Caravan, tide of morning, or throaty mermaid. I have a level 1 Samurai/2 Magus I am happy to tap in, though the Magus is a specialist in Dark Tapestry or culty type things. If we are starting level 1-2 games, I may tag in another character or make a new one. I do have a cleric with 2 chronicles under their belt that I could bring in.

Note that there is no requirement for "me getting credit" for scenario selection; while XP is nice, everything gets me closer to the next star.

Now that I think about it, the only real requirements for me running something are "Scenarios Only (No APs or Modules, plus Quests are kinda dumb)" and "Not 'Rivalry's End'," because I want whatever happens in that to be a surprise.

Everyone good on Chronicles? The Scenario is unofficially reported (since I don't know if I'm supposed to do stuff with the new Online VC or not. It's all reported, though.)

Silly, unrelated self-tangent: After looking through my Sessions tab, I realized that John Compton (the Developer for PFS) was the guy who ran Shadow's Last Stand for me at Dragoncon 2011. When he asked for special senses, I wrote down 'Inbreastigation,' and he let me use it. Does that mean it's PFS-legal, or only at his tables?

I vote for anything! Also, Hiram is now 3rd level, but I could definitely start a new 1st level if necessary.

I'd love a T3-4 game. a) I need the dough and b) I am 1 adventure from going to 4th.

Otherwise let me know. Luccinus could also do with another run.

Are modules potentially on the table?
