Hey guys,

We'll get started soon. I just gave the missing player a nudge by PM. If I haven't heard in about 24 hours, I will find a replacement.

Hi, I am still here - I just couldn't get through to the website until just about an hour ago.

I am here. The site is very unstable for the last couple of days. I'll post when able.

I've likewise been having some issues with the Paizo website. It works perfectly fine with my work Verizon Jetpack, but my home service is intermittent. It was working fine last night and then this morning it was not working again. So, if I'm silent for a while it is likely that my home service won't allow me to access the website again.

Also, I think I finally found the avatar I want to use.

Hey all, had a rough day at work today and don't really have spirit for a post today. Business as usual tomorrow.

Update to all my games:

I will be moving tomorrow. I will shut down my PC sometime tonight, and with luck will be back up running by Saturday (Sunday at the latest).

If my home internet goes sideways, I will try to keep up via the Wayfinder app on my phone

Please bot me as necessary.

Are we going to use the info about his complacency to get support or turn that info over with everything else?

Grand Lodge

Male Half-Elf DEAD

I see no difference between one, and the other.

If we are turning over info to the authorities, we might as well turn *everything* over.

Also, PM sent to the GM :-)

"While Tercio seems to be corrupt... that he would be willing to hand his daughter over to secure political advantage speaks poorly... The other senator seems to be a more honorable man. "

He looks at the documents for a while. "And complacency is not criminal. Seeing his cousin brought before the courts may well cause him to pick up his standards. I think we should approach him for support for the military expedition."

He gives Thalia a nod. "And Thalia, the heir apparent has already agreed to assist with the financial side."

Thanks, everyone, that was fun. I'm going to get chronicles finished and sent out soon.

I do have a few questions about chronicles. The game was run at the settings for level 1-2. Most of you are in that range, so that makes it easy; you get the gold and the chronicle rewards for that level. Jarlaxle is level 4. I know he gets gold for level 4-5, but what about the chronicle rewards?

Also, could you please each PM me an email address I can send the chronicle sheet to?

As I said at the beginning, this is my first PFS scenario to GM in any setting, and I would appreciate any feedback you have, particularly things I could have done better. You can either do that in this thread or by PM if you have things to say that would be better in private. Thanks!

With Jarlaxle, since it was run at tier 1-2, he will be getting out of tier gold.

Add up both tiers gold and then divide by two and round if needed. I always round up.

And you cross out all tier 4-5 item rewards since we did not earn them. And also cross out any items in tier 1-2 we did not come across.

What about the box you found and carried but did not open? The wording in the adventure is,

If the PCs fail to recover the hidden wealth,
reduce each PC’s gold earned as follows.

I would say that by grabbing the box, you recovered the wealth, but I wanted to make sure that is correct.

I would rule it the same way. We recovered it, just need to take it back to the lodge to find a rogue or some one who could open it.

Game is reported, although I'm still working on chronicles. Khellek, yours didn't go through properly because the system complained your character is not core.


Venture Lieutenant, Play by Post (online)

Current status:
Roran, you should have gotten your chronicle sheet by email.

Jarlaxle, Khellek, Meran, and Emilia, your sheets are done, I'm just waiting to get PMs with your email addresses to send them.

Althera, I'm waiting for the info to fill out your sheet. Your profile had enough to report, but not enough for the chronicle sheet.

Chronicles now sent to Meran, Emilia, Jarlaxle, and Roran.

I still need an email address (by PM) from Khellek.

I still need an email address (by PM) and information to fill out the chronicle from Althera.

Khellek is core, just keep him in it. He had a GM reporting issue at one stage that it looks like they fixed but have not got round to resetting his Core statue, I'll talk with someone about that as all the games on his reporting record show as core.

BTW, does recovering the Essays of Alysande Benedict count as recovering a named text for FJC purposes?


Venture Lieutenant, Play by Post (online)

No, I don't think so.

Chronicles are all sent; if you didn't get yours, PM me.

Thanks, everyone.

day job- oratory: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26

If the book doesn't count, then
I don't suppose we retrieved any magic items from the alchemist, that box or the kidnappers that Khellek could have identified?

spellcraft #1: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (12) + 9 = 21
spellcraft #2: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (8) + 9 = 17
spellcraft #3: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 14

Yep, Koriana had some potions of cure light wounds among the gear on her body, so go ahead and check that box.
