GM Chadius's Gameday VI: 8-05 Ungrounded But Unbroken (Table 2) (Inactive)

Game Master chadius

Ugh, typed out a huge post with every check flavored, then realized it said TWO consecutive Acrobatics check, which changed every dice roll. Will redo when I'm home.

No problem, it may be best to do one post at a time. I just didn't want to ask you to handle one trap at a time, it would be super slow...

Yeah, I don't have a problem with how it's done. Man it makes a wall of text though haha. When I hit submit, there was a moment of panic because it was taking awhile to load and I was afraid the forum troll was going to eat that post. I rolled a lot better than expected.

FYI, I'll be away most of Tuesday and Wednesday for work, so if I get to post it only will be Tuesday early and/or Wednesday late.

Forgot Frankie and Mort were the same for a second. Got a moment of Deja Vu.

Does everyone have to pass? Or is this like the perform check where only one of us needs to pass?

If I have to pass, I can keep rolling. (Or take ten.)

Everyone does not need to pass, but you do need to try.

I'm assuming something is going to happen because of those rocks he mentioned (and I can imagine what) but I tried making my post vague enough in case something happens.

Phew, I was kinda worried about that wall. 1 more obstacle to go, though!

I'm going to be moving across the country via car over the next 4 days. My posts will be sparse, if at all, and Botting is encouraged. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Brain games? Frankie can't win at those! This is inconceivable!

I am really happy with my rolls so far! Nigel is really stepping up his game here. Last adventure, he went the whole time with his highest roll being 12 and that was his only double digit number the whole time.

Nigel recalls that the Shaitan Stone Curse ability relies on bull rushing an opponent into a stone wall. He knows it's impossible to bull rush anything that is extremely larger than you.

Family emergency, will be MIA for another day or so, sorry for the absence.

No worries Xynen. Family comes first.

Is slavery legal on this plane or in this city? Many of my faction goals deal with slavery. Frankie is very anti slavery. He was his Mom's slave at home for years... "Frankie clean your room, Frankie clean the kitchen, Frankie go get me some wine..."

I'll paste some stuff about it below:

FREEDOM FIGHTER (2+ goals): Gain a +1 bonus on attack rolls and weapon damage rolls against known slavers. For the purposes of this reward, a slaver is a creature that owns at least five slaves, is maintaining a compulsion spell or effect to control a creature for at least one day, or is explicitly cited as trafficking slaves.

*Some of the goals below:

(2/3)Liberate one or more slaves, captives, or hostages during an adventure.

(0/1)Defeat a known slaver whose Challenge Rating is at least equal to your character level. For the purposes of this goal, use the definition of slaver from the Freedom Fighter reward.

(0/1)In a region where slavery is legal, deliver a speech against tyranny, slavery, or corruption to a crowd of at least 20 participants. Doing so requires a successful Diplomacy or Perform (acting, comedy, or oratory) check (DC = 15 + your character level).

(0/2)Fulfill one of the goals above on an Elemental Plane or in pursuit of the freedom of a creature with the air, earth, elemental, fire, or water subtype. Checking one of this goal’s boxes doesn’t prevent you from checking one box for a different goal.

Yes, there is slavery in the Outer District.

Excellent, I'll be attempting to complete one of those by the end of the adventure depending on what comes up or I'll make my own trip to the Outer District for a speech.

Thanks for the reminder, I always forget my faction goals during PbP. Out of sight, out of mind I guess!

They add in some extra character development and some of the boons can be pretty handy too.

Hey Johnny, I didn't realize you were in the same starfinder pbp with me. I was Altronus.

Ah, small world! Glad to play with you again!

If a weapon is Broken, that would be something like a snapped blade, correct? Where it's much less effective, but still a dangerous weapon?

As opposed to Destroyed, where the weapon is impossible to wield it's so smashed?

Trying to wrap my head around Sunder rules (this is my first PbP Campaign) and I think I did enough damage to break the Scimitar but not destroy it. Which is what I was hoping for, to snap the end off of his blade.

EDIT: Also, damn Ulena. Rolled a 20 on your d20 and 6,6 on your 2d6. Dice loved you!

Ya that was a great round to be the good guys, I think everyone hit there, even our little gnome!

And I hit for max damage too!

Broken weapons are still usable. Destroyed weapons are not. If you would destroy an object by sundering it, you may choose instead to break it and leave it with 1 HP.

I'll be outta town until Monday evening at least. Don't have too much fun without me!

Enjoy your weekend Frankie.

So should we mention the gang that is supposed to jump us or just be ready for them?

Mention them to dell? Could be good. Also we should try to find our original guide.

Now that we know they poisoned their blades might be worth going back and getting that poison we found in her office.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who can't resist reading spoilers I'm not supposed to read.

Unfortunately, only Frankie saw the bottle and he didn't recognize it as poison. However...

"Just a vial of dark liquid, I put it back."

He did tell us about a mysterious hidden vial. That may warrant going back and searching her office again. Johnny is terrible at Sense Motive though, I don't think he would think of that.

We do have two incriminating letters, a poisoned blade and a written confession. So, when the time comes to rat her out, I feel like we have enough dirt.

Eh, we found a vial of mysterious liquid in her office the day before they poisoned their weapons.

Worst case Captain Fart-Breath can always have an "accident." Don't think Tita would mind helping with that, heh.

The site has been very unreliable over the last few days. I'll continue tomorrow so you have a chance to catch up.

The website is struggling so much! Hopefully it settles down soon since the end of Gameday is getting close.

Tell me about it. We have about 3-4 weeks left for about 3-4 encounters.

Oh, wow! Well, let us know how we can help. Whether it's more posts or rolls or something. I know this group tends to have more fun than the scenario calls for. ;)

Yep. If helping us get it done in time means you have my number so you can text me tell me that we are waiting on me, I can normally find a way to get on quickly. Let me know if that is something you want.

Hey! we are back (for now at least...) This week has been brutal. I hope everyone has stuck around the slog and that we are all still here and want to play?

What direction are we going on this map? Where's this bridge? I'm confused!

Naturally the guide doesn't tell me anything...
The bridge is from East to West. Agatha is on the bridge.

I'm going to roll for boons now, so I can get your email and submit on time. If you get a 19 or 20, rejoice!

GM: 1d20 ⇒ 9
Ulena: 1d20 ⇒ 19
Tita: 1d20 ⇒ 14
Johnny: 1d20 ⇒ 14
Nigel: 1d20 ⇒ 14
Frankie: 1d20 ⇒ 18

Congrats, Ulena!
Boon: 1d4 ⇒ 1
You have won the "Scholar of the Sages / Model Pathfinder" boon! Please PM me your email address so PFS can email the boon to you.

Frankie you were so close! Nuts!

Also, you need all of our emails for Gameday games. I guess there is a lottery for some Paizo gift certificate.

Braaten5tribe@msn.com for me!

Ya too bad I can give it a boost with my halfling luck! I've only ever won one of those boons. They are nice for making character concepts.

I need all of them? Oh, uh, PM or post your email, then!

My email is vlaovichpbp@gmail.com

And darn. Was hoping to win one. I still have one more chance (as long as we finish in time).

I haven't heard of this gift certificate lottery and I ran a few games this gameday, hopefully I didn't accidently cheat players out of a potential gift.

Ordonezst@gmail.com Looking forward to the boon :-)

I have played a few games and only one game mentioned it so I am not too sure about it.

I haven't heard of this gift certificate lottery and I ran a few games this gameday, hopefully I didn't accidently cheat players out of a potential gift.

The good news is that I'm wrong, it's not tied to a gift cert. I asked Hmm about it.

As a side note, we're blazing through this. We should be able to finish by the 17th.

I haven't heard from Tita in a while (another GM mentioned she had some RL stuff happen) and this trial has slightly different rules for 4 PCs. Should I use the 4-player adjustment, or I should I bot Tita?

Shoot... 4 player adjustment may be easier.

Tita isn't one for words anyway. ;)
