GM Rednal's Wrath of the Righteous (Inactive)

Game Master Rednal

I like to have both roleplaying and rollplaying - the game is more than just dice. XD

True. Especially when Rowan is a diplomacy w... nut. XD

However i have to admit can be hard to roleplay scenes as well as they could have been. ;D

Ooooh updates! *Runs to see* ♡

Got my mutant side updated too. So i am ready to go!

No, no, diplomacy is good! It suggests an effort to resolve things in ways besides swinging your pointy weapons at them, and some possibilities/rewards are only available via roleplaying. ^^

True. Good thing Julian doesn't do the Diplo thing. He's good at exploding things.

I just got my Mythic Mania books (I wasn't in Kickstarted but I see a Certain Rednal's name that was!) The Mythic Alchemist stuff is Awesome! However having a Mythic Grand Discovery! WHUT!? Shut The Front Door! XD

Is there any limits on these books Rednal? Because my build is coming into question lol. Though Rowan has the books too and I wonder when they will Talk About the Savior Clas :3. Looks somewhat up here alley!

Muwahahahaha~ Yes, my name is indeed in the books. XD The Mythic Mania supplements are basically completely available (though if anyone grabs Mythic Vital Strike, expect to use the alternate version in the back of the Hero's Handbook), though as usual, I'll want to sign off on things when you level up.

By all means, though, dig through 'em and have fun. o wo b

Despite having Vital Strike, I wasn't intending to take its Mythic equivalent. It's just for making nasty AoOs combined with Defensive Focus and Seize the Opportunity.

The Living Saint is a very neat and fitting Mythic Path for a Paladin such as Rowan with her Path. However I don't think it fits the overall scheme of this AP.

Its too bad there isn't any Arcanist in this book. Oh well.

Magus and Alchemist though. Yooza Julian. You don't have enough feats/tiers to have everything you want but you could make a hell of a feral mutant build though lol.

I will post if I find anything interesting Rednal. I also don't mind the idea of Rowan leading but Irabeth is still very fitting.

I will vote for Irabeth to be the commander, she has a great Boon and is only -2 from what Rowan is capable of.

I agree with Rowan. Irabeth's boon is a major plus in this. If we acquire more forces or something then Rowan would be my second choice. :3

Man...

Alchemist -

Mythic Feral Mutagen Is just plain neat, combine it with Enlarge person and Julian would be fairly fierce up close, if I could bypass DR he'd be a terror.

Mythic Bomb is pretty neat, powerful but I don't know if its so useful when my choices for bomb creation are already limited lol. Demons narrow the field quite a bit...

Too bad there isn't a Mythic Holy Bomb XD Guess there bad ass enough as is.

Magus -

I love the Arcane Accuracy equals Mythic teir in rounds for use. That is crazy strong.... And Awesome.

So many great options here. If Julian was more of a gambit-esq and this wasn't Wrath of the Righteous character I would emphasis his INcubi side by taking Lustful and Mythic lustful. Seducing Succubi kinda backfires lmao.

Lmao...

So that will be the only 20 I roll for the rest of this area. xD

#jinxed

Are we sill injured from the last fight Rednal or are we fully healed? Just wanting to know lol.

You rested between exiting the cavern and setting off today, so presumably, you're all at full health. ^^

Yay! XD Wait I was at full health... Ripoff! XD Just Kidding! This is gonna be a fun dungeon delve I am sure of it! XD

Oh, yeah, all two rooms of the place!

...Of course, if you'd seen what I've seen about what can be done with two rooms, you might not laugh...

But I think you will enjoy this. ^^

Lmao, two rooms. XD Damn. Got all pretty for nothing... Wait. no. Two rooms could be an epic slaughterhouse run too. O.O;

Man I learn more and more about MAgus everyday. I didn't realize I could cast Defensive spells with spellcombat. XD Wth. That is crazy cool but seems a bit. Unbalanced. However seeing as I am a bit of a glass cannon in the way of HP I will take what +'s I can get.

Just checking in anyway! Have a good day. :D

Well, it is another dice roll and a chance for failure... but yes, defensive casting is pretty useful. XD

True but learning more about magus realize just how out of touch I am with the class sometimes but it'll make Julian more useful. Granted I am loving this Alch/Magus combo. ;3

School must be busy for Tarov. :/ Hope he is okay. ^.^

Working like crazy atm, 16 hour days again but its good to be working. Looking over my build and love this mythic hero handbook. So many options!

I am assuming we won't be able to retrain Mythic stuff huh? XD

If we don't get a post by the end of today, I'll bot him and move us forward. ^^

As for retraining mythic... it's true that it's not meant to be the kind of power you can retrain on a whim. XD Expect to need to pay a lot of gold and get some help from your patron if you wanna do that.

Understood! :D And makes sense lol. A scolding from ones patron would be expected. ;3

If you feel regret over a decision, acknowledge it was wrong, and promise to be more thoughtful in the future, your patron would have no further scolding to do - they wouldn't need to, since you'd already punished yourself enough by feeling those emotions. XD You'd have to mess up pretty badly to get a real scolding from them.

(And even then it would probably be second-hand. Kariel isn't going to be popping in all the time...)

Sorry guys, I'll get a post up now. Student teaching has been an absolute bear, and I'm not even fully in charge of the classroom yet.

hehe, that's what we were thinking! No bid deal bud, take care of your business and we will be here. :)

Woo Victory is ours! Kiss our swords ya undead punks!

Lvl up on the way, probably by tomorrow lol!

Whoops forgot one feat! Sorry about that!

So quick question - Is Leadership off the table?

I was thinking something interesting to do with Julian and these captured prisoners. Perhaps he could sway some of the tieflings to join him or maybe they rally to him as an inspiration.

Just an idea, Julian is fairly strong as he is and adding more splat to him is desirable but ultimately I want him to have more personality then just the usual vanilla Kensai, Bladebound Magus, blah blah.

Like that last fight he totally tanked the guy. granted he had all his buffs, +Tarovs and Rowans help but still in the ideal fight he is fairly strong already.

So I was thinking about something flavorful but that depends on your take about leadership. ;)

I did check to see if it was discuss in OOC before and couldn't find anythign lol. ^^; So forgive me if I missed it. XD

I will keep looking at other feats in the mean time, just thought I would throw this out there as Tarov and Rowan are probably way greater leaders lol. Cha +0 XD

Working on my build, it'll be the first level of Mystic Theurge + an additional level of paladin.

Apologies for the wait.

Will throw in some character posts to liven things up for Rowan before the day is over. Besides I am sure we will have a strategy meeting before the next battle as well.

I will try to get Tarov leveled up tonight. It's probably going to be pretty straightforward.

@Julian: It really depends on what you want to do with them. Combat help is a no-go - the NPCs are never as survivable as PCs, and many foes would specifically target them to get rid of them as nuisances. If you wanted some kind of background help - say, crafters - that's a little more workable.

Alternately, you can go for a somewhat more unusual companion. There's a thing in this adventure that might end up working out rather well. I'd have to tweak it, and it'd be a surprise, but... XD I don't think you'd be too disappointed (and you could always dismiss it later).

Also, given that they're NPCs, the GM technically gets to make and control them.

Also, I think your Leadership score'd be 7, arguably 8 if we take into account being one of the Dawnbringers' commanders? I think you literally could not have a group of normal followers yet. o_O So perhaps that's not the best feat option right now...

Having issues picking a feat that fits Mystic Theurge, however the build is coming along. Anyone have any suggestions?

Worldwound Walker seems fitting, as does spell penetration of Critical Dispell feat (can't remember the exact name)

Most likely Rowan will be ditching her armor and front line status soonish. Going full mage/healer and leaving the heavy lifting to the men. Doesn't mean she won't get in and cut a rug every now and again but someone has to do blasting from the back row.

Think carefully about what you want your build and character to be able to do - don't be afraid to go for fluff-improving things. XD If blasting is gonna be your thing, though, Consecrate Spell may be worth looking into.

Sorry this took so damn long! I'm sorry that I've been so flaky, and can only warn that it's going to probably get even worse until I graduate in December. ;_;

7th level: Warder (Zweihander Sentinel) / Cavalier (Inspiring Commander)

Saves: +5 F, +2 R, +5 W (no change)

BAB/CMB/CMD: +7, +11, +23 (from +6, +10, +22)

HP 137 (118 + 18 + 5 Bonus + 5 Mythic)

Skills: 63 (54+9) - Acrobatics, Craft (armor), Diplomacy, Knowledge (history), Perception, Perform (oratory), Sense Motive, Survival (I think I had an extra skill point somewhere that I had overlooked previously)

Feats: Steel Soul

Warder:

• Adaptive Tactics
• Gain Silver Crane's Leap (boost)

Cavalier:

• 20 rounds Inspiring Commands (18 + 2)
• Inspiring Commands can be activated as a Move action

Looks good for you, Tarov!

Whoops. Forgot to mention that I get another use of Challenge and that Inspire Competance is +3 instead of +2 now, too.

Tarov should be updated and ready to go.

Since Leadership will be a bit underwhelming atm I will take Weapon Specialization instead. With 13/d of bombs, upping my melee prowess will make Julian a little more useful in the air, also being able to overcome the 10/dr is a must too.

Updating character now.

Rowan has been digging through my books all day lmao. This Mystic Theurge is gonna be rough on him. XD

That bad, huh? XD;

I think he and I have said it before. We are both more martial then magical types however with mythic we will balance out our inadequacies enough lol. I am definitely more flavor centered. Granted I built him strong stat wise but I would rather have more fun with their story then be a pure hulking hyde or mad bomber. But I am looking forward to fast bombs.... Which means I will need rapid fire eventually.

Nontheless, apologies for the wait, been cleaning house like a maniac since I came home and work remains...Difficult atm. Low Oil is no good and it appears its gonna be this way for awhile. :/

Building the stat/char changes atm. May take longer then expected but I finally settled on a feat. It fits the direction I am going to take Rowan's story.

Leadership. Boom. Base Score of 11, though if her reputation is known from the Inquisition days I could see it dropping by -1-2 but it'll probably be a wash with her leadership role in the Dawnbringers.

It'll be an interesting dynamic. but at 11 she can get a decent Cohort - More to be a sergeant or other leader role among her followers and her followers would be craftsmen type as I plan on making her into a magic building warmachine.

However, I would do Mythic Leadership at some point as well. Later on of course and not for the purpose of adding a Mythic Cohort to the group dynamic. I think the three of us are doing just fine lol.

Let me know if that is possible please and I will have the character additions posted her in a few. Thanks!

Well, I think they're all 1st Level, so there's not much crafting ability at the moment... but yes, I think that's workable.

(Remember the important details, though - Cohorts and Followers are NPCs, and as such fall under my control. Active stuff like helping you in battle is bad - they WILL die - while passive stuff like crafting items at your base is good. ...If you want crafters, they're not going to appear out of thin-air, and the plot'll require a bit more stuff to happen before you can get them. Those Paladins in the army are busy, yo. XD Not that this is too important at the moment, since you don't exactly have weeks of leisure time to be crafting anyway. The Cohort will generally be the intermediary between you and the other followers, and I'll probably write them up soonish. Sounds like we're pretty much on the same page, though. ^^)

I'm honestly just hoping we'll get to 9 soon (for the Silver Crane stance that gives a fly speed), because Tarov is effectively worthless against anything that can fly, which seems to be a large number of our enemies lately.

Perfectly fine, I am not expecting these followers to do a great amount. I was looking at some of the converted prisoners making up the beginnings of her humble following. I fully understand they are yours to create and control. :)

I can picture them being a workforce for Drezen's rebirth and other such flavor.

The Mythic Leadership will only add to the flavor if it is allowed. But I am on the same page as you. ( ^.^)-d

Tarov

It sounds like Julian is distilling some potions of Fly for us land bound folk. It's not a great fix but it'll mean we can at least get off the ground when it matters and fight the worst of our airborne foes when needed.

Rowans Update

Took longer then normal due to file being corrupt on herolab -.-;

However I went off my profile here and it was easy enough to fix. Also found that the Add Bonus feat option doesn't actually add ANYTHING in Herolab's feat tab for some reason. So apparently I was one feat short for awhile... Sigh.

Anywho, that's fixed and simple enough to do.

Rowans Gains

Feats:
Leadership
Summon Good Monsters - Any Advice on how to prebuild them in herolab or will I just have to jot them down on pen/paper Rednal?

Skills
Sense Motive
Diplomacy
Knowledge Engineering

HP 92
Saves No Change
BAB/CMB/CMD +7/+10/21/21FF From +6/+9/20/20 FF

Mystic Theurge Gains

+1 Arcanist/Oracle Spellcasting

2 Spells added to spell book
Summon Monster II
Summon Swarm

-Will Trade with Julian for spells as allowed in game by Rednal

Oracle Spells gained/prepared
Summon Monster 1
Flex Armor

Other Gain
Combined Spells 1st

Paladin gains

Divine Bond - Weapon 1/day for 5 mins gains +1 to weapon enhancement

Additional 1st level spell
Honeyed Tongue prepared

That's all the changes I can note/see, herolab doesn't make it easy and Tarov is the god of updating his char. :)

I tend to write things down one-by-one as I get them. XD Much easier to keep track. To add a bonus feat, use the Adjustments tab. Otherwise, looks good.

For Summon Good Monster, you should be able to get them through the "Show Encounter Builder" tab - most celestial monsters are already there if you've got their sources - followed by manually adding Diehard.

*Writes up the Cohort*

o wo;;;

Wow.

Yeah, if you want crafting, that's all this'll be used for. XD Leadership is stupidly good as it is, and I actually can't justify more than this. I think you're going to enjoy the end result, though...

Rowan/Tarov with Mythic (Or even Regular) leadership would be scary (Because they would be so good at it!). I just wanted a small band of Tieflings made up from the proisoner pool lol. ;3

Well that is the funny thing, I have the bonus added, but it doesn't add it to the Number of feats allowed per your level. Which I verified as being correct for her level. So even though I added, checkmarked the bonus feat in adjustments my feat total remained the same as if I hadn't been given a bonus. Just a glitch or something I guess. THe adjustment tabworks for everything but that so far. xD

Ty for the advice on adding the summons I will get them built today hopefully!

The feat adjustment should be a flat up-or-down, not a per-level thing...? Works on my end, at least, so I'm not sure why it might be glitching for you. XD

And major post in the main thread. Laying it on thick. Rowan does believe they can win this main battle, that Drezen will fall and that they will prove the 5th Crusade shall not FALTER!

FOR IOMEDAE!

Character updated btw!

Looking forward to whatever comes up with leadership and if it ends up being a Tiefling Cohort then even better. xD No matter what it'll be awesome!
