I generally give the choice. Either 1/2 +1, or you can take your chance with a roll. Since Heinrick beat me to it, for this level only, you can take the better of the two

I'm away from my desktop (and therefore Hero Lab), but here's the low-down:
+1 BAB, CMB, CMD, Fort
5 skill points (yet to assign, but I might just stick with putting another rank in each of my trained skills)
Order ability - add +3 instead of +2 when using aid another to improve ally's attack roll or AC
1d10 ⇒ 10 12 hit points

Allocated skill points thusly: climb, diplomacy, handle animal, perception, ride. A mix of things he needs to be good at, and a couple of skills he's been exercising since he ended up down here.
I say we sell off anything we aren't using - the brooch, the ring, the statuette - if possible. Perhaps see if we can buy any common curatives, or if we need more light sources.
The treasure list, including the money split after selling items should be up to date. Let me know if you think I missed anything. Are you going to sell the masterwork warhammer?

Sorry, I've been through this part of the campaign soooooo many times, I keep getting confused about what has and hasn't happened. >.> I'll just keep my mouth shut now.
I'm happy to hold onto the hammer, but if somebody else wants to, feel free. I think I have the highest carrying capacity...

My posting rate will be a bit slow over the next three weeks. My smartphone has met with an unfortunate accident, and I'm using an old piece of crud with no internet connectivity. So no posting for me during workdays, or while I'm at tabletop games, or commuting... you get the idea. Once my contract gives me a free upgrade, I'll be back and swinging! In the meantime, please bot me if I go more then 24 hours without posting in combat, or if I'm holding us up from moving on.
Also, how are we going to do this? I haven't had time to post much beyond the initial suggestion, but are the two in disguises going to go in, set people off guard, and try to get us a surprise round when we kick in the door and start swinging? Or are we going to try to bluff our way past altogether? I would have suggested putting Iolana as one of the decievers, since as a bard, she's best-equipped to talk her way through it.
I just went with the outfit because Tats is already strange-looking and she might be able to blend in better (circumstance bonus, maybe?). She has no plan whatsoever beyond that, and if we decided to let Iolana give it a shot instead, she'd hand over the disguise without too much of a fuss.
Female Human Bard 3; hp 21/21; Init +3; AC 17 (Touch 13, Flat Footed 14); Fort +2 Ref +6 Will +2; CMB +3 CMD 16 ; Move 30ft ; Perception +5; Diplomacy +9; Intimidate +9; Sense Motive -1; performance 9/11; chance encounter 1/1; Spells: 1st--4/4 per day
Now that I have my first versatile performance my diplo and intim skills are really good. I'll stand in as a "cultist" with Tats if you guys want me to.
ON another note, weekends through the end of July are going to be slow for me. I'm a baseball coach, and after 6 rainouts to begin our season, we now have doubleheaders on most weekends, which take pretty much the whole day, where I'll be away from any kind of technology.
Do you all mind if I use Hero Lab to determine init, and just post the results? I'm good with rolling here, but HL would save me a lot of time, and I use it to track damage, effects etc. I'm completely okay with it if you want me to continue to show rolls here, I've got all your inits listed on the campaign page, so it's a simple cut and paste for yours.

Just posting here to avoid cluttering gameplay. Yes, I've been using the masterwork warhammer from the temple. I believe I stated that once in discussion and mentioned it in gameplay that he was using it (not to mention the 'hammertime' quip); if not, I apologise for the confusion - I've been a bit muddled and absent-minded lately.
If it helps, since I'm now carrying the mwk warhammer and my own cold iron longsword, I could be more specific in future.
Sorry if I'm spotty over the next few days. I was treated for chest pains, which thankfully turned out not to be any kind of heart attack, but still recovering, and just plain exhausted.

Ouch. Understandable. Chest pains are serious business; look after yourself. It's the most important thing. (My stepfather recently had four stents put in; my mother flipped out when she came home to find him doing sprints on the exercise bike!)
I've had a busy day with my sister, mother, and best friend (something I needed after a rough couple of weeks), so I'm pretty flat now. I can get a combat post up sometime tomorrow, or if I've held this up too long, feel free to do it for me.

On Wednesday July 29th when I leave for work I won't be home until August 2 due to my trip to GenCon Indy. I will post as I can during that time but it will likely be infrequent. Feel free to bot me during that time.
Ah, Gencon. Might be a few years before my wife and I (and now our son) get back to GenCon. Taking a 6 month old would just provide more distracting than anything, and I doubt he'd get much out of it. Figure when he's around 3 ish? Well, early starts in gaming are good. ;)

Gen Con is an unattainable dream for me. International travel is ridiculously expensive. :-(

I've had a rather rough few weeks. My home situation is growing ever more hostile due to a particular family member moving back in, and I've found out that I won't have my job much longer due to there being no funding for it. So I'm looking for a job and a house, both of which are pretty unattainable right now - I can't get a home loan because I have no reliable income, and I can't get a job because I'm inexperienced in everything that's hiring. I've been stressed to high heaven at work, and when I get home, I've wanted to do nothing but sleep.
I'm still around, but I'm pretty absent right now, and trying to get my life back on track, and to not post when I'm feeling so depressed (which is pretty frequently). Please be patient with me. I'm trying to work my way back into everything.

Yeah, that's the tough part. I try not to post when I'm feeling particularly depressed, but that's becoming more and more common. I'll be seeing my GP soon to talk about my meds; it might be time to up the dosage or try something new.
Guys, just wanted to remind you that weekends are tough on me, as far as posting much. I do some work, and then watch our 6 month old while my wife works on the weekends. So if I don't post, don't fret, it just means that I'm chasing an infant all weekend. ;)
