I can't in good faith let you take a 1 on a HP roll, that just hurts and I feel like you are making it too easy for me to kill you. How about if you get less that half of your hit die you can take hitdie. That way it's still below the hitdie+1 if you took the risk.
Typically I like to wait until a new day before awarding new stuff, however we are not at the end of this day so let's just give it to you and trudge ahead.

Alright, one last question. With Hvita being a Sage archetype familiar, she gets 2 skill points per level with no restriction on what skills it can be put in. Is it possible for her to take linguistics to be able to speak a language? I'm guessing no but I thought I would ask anyway. Also, since we've been using bonus skills, including lore and such, can she put a rank in lore?

Trying to decide my spells I gain. I'm definitely taking flurry of snowballs, not sure on my other one though. I'm debating between blindness/deafness, spectral hand, or cure moderate.
Paizo hates me. Once again I posted up the next scene today and once more Paizo went down afterwards and the post was lost apparently. Next time I'm writing it in notepad and saving it, I swear.
Lialda - I think in order to speak a language she needs 3 INT as a prerequisite first..
Intelligent Animals:
Increasing an animal's Intelligence to 3 or higher means it is smart enough to understand a language. However, unless an awaken spell is used, the animal doesn't automatically and instantly learn a language, any more than a human child does. The animal must be taught a language, usually over the course of months, giving it the understanding of the meaning of words and sentences beyond its trained responses to commands like "attack" and "heel."
Even if the animal is taught to understand a language, it probably lacks the anatomy to actually speak (unless awaken is used). For example, dogs, elephants, and even gorillas lack the proper physiology to speak humanoid languages, though they can use their limited "vocabulary" of sounds to articulate concepts, especially if working with a person who learns what the sounds mean.

Yeah, she has like an 8 because of her archetype. So she can, just can't speak it. Crap. You'd really think they'd have thought of that with Sage Familiar. It'd be lovely if they swapped deliver touch spells and speak with master or something.

Since Garri is now a good melee combatant, after releasing the logs and boulder do we want to try having Garri, Sarada, and myself fill the portcullis entrance to limit their chances at out flanking us?

Given how effective my alchemist fire was 1d4+3 will still hurt these guys enough for a kill every 2 rounds on average. And the wall is more important as a blockade to let Renliat use his AoE like Freezing Burst, which at 5d4 will pretty near guarantee all the orcs in its radius die.
Also, Renliat, any reason why you have Intensified Freezing Burst written? Intensify won't help you yet (you don't yet surpass the 5 die max) and it would be a second level spell slot. Or is it just for later convenience? Or am I missing something? (I'm a bit of a rules/power gamer so I'd like to know if I am missing out on something to make my casters better here!)

Ah good catch. Paizo must not have saved my most recent edit where I realized that mistake. I haven't met the completion conditions of my story feat so I don't subtract 1 from the total metamagic cost of created spells yet.
Although between eldritch researcher and spell specialization I am casting freezing burst as a 6th level caster right now.

Ahh I was missing eldritch researcher. Never seen it before. That's actually a pretty sweet story feat I need to remember.

Lol looking at the map I may have made a mistake in moving forward.

Are we just waiting for a confirmation from Lialda that she continues waiting?

Hey guys I've been sick for about a week now and finally took my broke butt to the doctor. I've got three bottles of pills and hopefully will feel normal in the next few days. I'll get us moving along then.

I will be unavailable from June 3 to 11 due to racing in a mini baja competition. I will try to check in from time to time but don't expect much from me
DM feel free to bot my actions in combats as needed during that time.

I will be mostly unavailable this entire week. I am volunteering as a camp counselor and the only free time we get is a little bit in the late evening before we go to sleep. I may be able to slip in some small posts during that time, but I wouldn't count on much. Apologies for the short notice, and please DMPC me as needed.

I am back in one piece. Enjoy your time counselling Renliat
Hey guys, I think I'm signing out of this one. It's just moving painfully slow, and it takes more mental energy to keep track of it than I'm getting enjoyment from it. I hope all of you have fun with it, and I'll see you around the boards.

Have fun in your other endeavors Garri. I will hopefully play other games with you.
Sorry to see you part ways in all of our games Garri, I hope I'm not the cause of the other ones! This one I definitely accept responsibility for though. I brought this topic up in the other game I'm running on here, so I'll do so here:
My availability to post has greatly decreased since I've started this game. If it's moving too slowly for everyone and you'd like to drop it, no hard feelings on my end. If you want to trudge forward I'll continue as long as you guys are willing.
