Discuss the Haunting of Hinojai here!
I’m very excited to be running this scenario for you all and GMing via PBP for the first time!
This scenario is a little bit different from ones you may have played before. The Haunting of Hinojai is a horror themed scenario (Before there was ever even a Horror Adventures book!), so be prepared for spooky atmosphere and things that go boo in the night. We will be taking all precautions in our storytelling though, so just say the word if something makes you uncomfortable. You can even send me a private message. If everyone is down for a good haunted house story (spoiler alert!) then we should be good to go.

Okay, so I have some Order of the Penitent Constable nonsense. First, I can grapple at the end of a charge. Second, I can perform a tie-up maneuver on someone who is only grappled, not pinned, without the -10 penalty that would normally entail.
Also, I have a shiny badge! It's my Wayfinder. It gives my allies and me a +2 morale bonus on saves against fear, compulsion, and charm effects, as well as a +1 morale bonus on attack rolls against a target I challenged. I'll try to figure out a good way to remind people of that. In person I have an index card.
I am activating my Lingering Resonance boon. If I fail a save against a spell or spell-like ability, I get you to sign off on the boon and I have a bonus against that spell in the future.
Totally down for horror. I will try to get out of silly mode and into detective mode soon.
The Artist Formerly Known as Cudak Tanagak has about 1,000 gp to spend and might make a purchase or two before we officially start.
whoops, didn't realize this was live yet—I'll try to get the pregen profile made and do a post by tonight
No worries Andrew! I just wanted to get you guys situated before my trip. I put a link with templates for everyone to enter their perception, initiative, etc. if folks wouldn’t mind filling those in for me that’d be awesome.
Once we get an interpreter, I want to ask around about burial practices and religious traditions. Seems germane if we're haunt-hunting!
I filled out the slides; The Artist Formerly Known As Cudak Tanagak may be popping Heightened Awareness time to time, so his perception & initiative will be bolstered.
Sooooo, I've got at will detect undead... would it ruin the scenario if I swept things with it all the time?

I think we’re going to have a good time! You can’t ruin the scenario, don’t worry!! (And if anyone ruins it, it’s going to be Cudak. JK!) You should use all of your abilities to get the most fun from your character. Just let me know what you’re using and when, because Detect Undead does require an action and concentration. The walls of Hinojai are wooden, but they’re not 3 feet thick, so you could scan a large swath of the house from outside the front doors even.
Busy day, so I'll probably be slow to post until tomorrow!
The Artist Formerly Known As Cudak Tanagak is back from KublaCon and ready to turn it up to 11!
We have what sounds like arcing electricity in our bedroom walls, so I flipped the circuit breaker for most of the house. No WiFi, so I’m a phone today, and probably won’t have a post up for a while!
Yeah, that was a really cool scenario!
Oh, great! I’m so glad you liked it. It’s one of my all-time favorites, so I’m happy I could share it with you and bring it to life via PBP. I think it translated alright!
Oh, could everyone post their PFS numbers, factions and day jobs? Also, if you’re going slow or out of tier or any other info I might need (we played tier 5-6). Thanks! You’ll receive 1 EXP and 2 PP since you encountered all the haunts and killed off Minasako!

How do day job checks work if you played a pregen?

Can I use my +14 Bluff to fool Doug into thinking I can make a day job check? :)
