No further rooms here.
So, sorry... help me out. I don't really know what we are supposed to do next. Did we do everything we need to here? Just trigger the trap?
Looks like it. On to the next one? Or do we want to try searching thoroughly and see if someone can get above 20?
Hoenstly there isn't much left in this building, no. It's basically empty. Nothing to loot, everyone already ditched.
How can I help move along?
Mostly, I think a lot of us just didn't have much to do in that spot. We should be good as we get moving again.
I am moving to Texas next week, and won't be able to post for sure Monday-Thursday, and it just depends on what is going on whether I will be able to post the rest of the week. Hopefully will be back up and normal on Monday the 29th latest, since I start my new job that day, so things have to be resolved at least that much.
Please bot me as needed.
Will do! And apologies for the delays, I'll get to moving this along sometime later today or tomorrow.
Thank you for your patience and dealing with my garbage.
No worries. :)
There really was nothing else there. The baddies had more or less cleared put already.
No problem. Just wanted to make sure we did what we needed to do for the survivors.
As a note- detect demon doesn't only detect demons- it also detects those with the demonic obidence feat, and those under significant demonic influence.
That said, considering how thoroughly this man emulates demons, I'll let the favored enemy apply to this guy.
Your call. She thinks it is a demon, and so she attacks. You can't actually choose just "Demon" as your favored enemy. She has the demonslayer archetype which gives that bonus to "Evil Outsiders," which is the classification of Demons, but also other things.
Weird that Detect Demon finds other things than just Demons though. I never knew. Thanks for the clarification.
Ironically enough, this adventure path might be the only one where automatically attacking all demons is *not* always the right response...
I was about to cite Hell's Vengeance but those are Devils, not demons.
Anyways, I know very little about how WotR progresses past book 1, and a demon army flattened Kenabres. We've already seen stragglers attacking people and wreacking havoc. Is it wrong to assume that everything demonic or wearing demonic paraphernalia is bad news? I'll accept a surrender but I don't want to be the stupid paladin who announces her presence wherever she goes.
He's talking about something way later. Your assumptions are fair.
I suppose it's a good story beat. Anyways thank you, I've got enough moral ambiguity in Kingmaker.
Indeed. There was another option with this guy, but neither was wrong.
Sorry for rambling.
Man I really need to get a mapmaking tool of some sort.
He's talking about something way later. Your assumptions are fair.
This is true. :D I've been a bit spoiled on some plot points due to almost GMing this in the past.
Shayde, I didn't forget perception, this guy just can't pass that.
Uerto?
I thought his casting doom was Haruto's action for this round?
And then the man acted.
It's round 2.
Ah, that's what I missed.
Don't quite have time for a post at the moment, but should have time later today.
Sorry.
He's got a +14 to his damage rolls...
Ayup.
Luckily, he's only one guy. Still, a high strength and power attack does a lot.
Anyway, shayde, when you have time, it's your turn.
Testing this out.
One two, one two.
A reminder, you're totally in the right for attacking this guy.
He's a little bit of a grey area, but only a little.
There's less a wrong choice here and more an easy way and hard way with this villan.
And both are totally viable so I can't wait to see what you do.
He is, at least, honest about being damned. XD
And I do think he's interesting! I just have a feeling our party full of divine wrath isn't even going to give him the time of day.
Alright, what can I do to un-stuck us here?
Kinda a mess. Can't focus right now.
Lemme know if you need me to move this along?
Not sure. Should we just barge on up to the door and look at it?
That works fine. You also have a passphrase.
Ok, I seem to have gotten us stuck. How can I help here?

I think we're headed downstairs and waiting for the description of the person who matters.
If you had fought any of the cultists, or failed that bluff check, that would have been much harder.
As it is, he was unbuffed and unprepared.
Good job, in that regard.

For once, making short work of an encounter isn't because of us being gestalt or enemies being severely outnumbered. Though, I do get the sense that Faxon is one of those baddies who, in the AP, is given a lot of backstory that we have no reason to ever learn.
Hmm, not really that interested in the loot. Weapons need to be cold iron for hurting demons, and +1 leather armor is kind of silly in being basically studded leather that costs way more. Potions could be handy, but not sure if we want to have specific people carrying them or not.
In general, the people who don't have any healing ability should probably carry them.
I'll take the invisibility potion if no one else wants it, but totally fine if someone else does want it.
Yeah, Haruto has enough ways to heal he doesn't need a healing potion.
Shayde can do a little bit of light healing in a pinch, but isn't a very potent healer.
