*gently pokes at Shathira*
Sorry, work blew up right before the holiday.
I hear ya.
Normally that is how it is around here. This year it has been eerily quiet.
Happy Thanksgiving US folks.
I got in-lawed this weekend. In law came for Thanksgiving, and then stayed a day or two later than expected...
Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays. Happy New Year!
Dropping in to pass the word, if you didn't see this about Selindra's player:
I am thestrongangel's (Nick Goodner's) brother. I am not sure if he knew anyone on here but I know he was very much into pathfinder as a community.
Nick has passed away. He became sick around the 27th of December. He had been fighting a virus which destroyed his immune system. He contracted the flu and was not able to recover. He passed on the evening of Jan 1st.

If you know anyone he might have known or have any questions please ask, I will do my best to reply - but I may not have access to this account for very long.
That is absolutely terrible news. Thanks for letting us know.
That is terrible news. Condolences to his family.
I agree.
Wow, that is terrible. You have my condolences as well.
My thoughts and good wishes go out to his family.
Sadly, I have to ask what we'd like to do about the missing spot in the group?
I think Selindra/strongangel would have wanted us to get as far into the AP as possible.
I have no intention of stopping play, but do we want to add anyone else?
I would say that we might be able to use a divine caster? Vadran and Godwin are frontline with Godwin having a bit of healing. Drakra and Fomiel are arcane casting/support.
Godwin stepped in and did his spectacular whiff for this round BTW.
Another player would be useful. However, we really need to get the posting back up. This game has really slowed recently.
Agree -- with both of those statements.
Being slow over the holidays make sense. I think we should be back to normal now though. Hope you guys aren't waiting on Godwin for anything.
Holidays slow things down. They did last year ;) I'll be more regular again, since the go lives here are under control.
I think the only one left to go is Thorne? Or is he sitting this out?
Just getting pummeled at work lately. Bear with me for a little bit of a rough patch, probably through Jan, and then it should get better. We had 4 major projects go live, so we're smoothing out the waters so to speak.
Hey guys. I took my Round 6 action. I think everyone else is up for this round right?
I thought I'd posted mine... I'll go double-check.
Edit: I had edited the post with the AoO to make an attack, not sure what happened. Annoying, but I'm now up to date.
Does levelling up refill our goodies for the day? Or do we need to rest up? Maybe we can rest in the shop before we continue heading out?
Really would like to go ahead and level up but are we stopping for the day in the shop or do we push on?
You'll need to rest before skills and spells are replenished.
Ok, Vardan's levelled to 3. Debating doing the first Paladin dip -- but couldn't pass up Cavalier's Charge.
I am good too. Sadly sorcerers wait for level 4 the level 2 spells.
Fomiel, not sure if I'm just missing it, but I only see Eschew Materials, which is a given feat for Sorcerers and Spell focus, which would mean you still have one feat left.
Just a warning -- I'll be out of town for 9 days -- leaving Sunday the 14th, and back the 23rd (a Tuesday, I believe). I won't have internet access during that time (though, hopefully, I'll have a lot of sun and a nice beach).
Free free to bot Vardan, as needed -- though I'll still be here and active 'til the end of the week.
[His general approach in combat (as you'd expect) will be to charge (especially now that he's got both Cavalier's Charge to take no AC penalty and gain a +4 to hit, and Spirited Charge to double the damage) -- using ride-by, if possible]
Forgot, augmented summoning to buff the summons (+4 str and con)
Not going to level up until we rest up for the night. So what're we doing guys? As far as I can see the options are. Push on to the archer's house and then to the merchan'ts house, Push on to Defender's Heart, or rest as the wrecked tailor shop to recharge and then push on to one of the two above?
Godwin may be alright to push on even though he's out of magic as he's going to take the scale of weapon alignment. He'll be able to stick Holy on weapons that way to get through demon defenses.
What does everyone think?
Vardan would want to push on -- but he's not one running on magic, and a bit eager.
I've updated the map with other call outs and a legend of sorts. Remember from the note you captured from the priestess, it mentioned three safe havens for Templars of the Ivory Labyrinth in the city.
Hah, don't know what each of those points are. But it seems to me that if we're pushing on then we should go to the archer's house and if we're still okay move on to the merchant's house (sorry forgetting name). If we run into trouble because it's been a long day then we could retreat to the tailor shop or the remains of the library and rest up, level up, and get our daily resources back.
So basically push on to archer's house for now? I'm going to add the weapon echanting scale to Godwin's sheet.
HP:
Anyone got any opinions on cross chasm or skirt wall?
Chasm. Though I am sure we get some excitement
Two for wall, one for chasm. Vardan?
Well if no other votes I guess wall it is.
I think we can go ahead with skirting the wall.
Yup - Drakra is going to oppose most anything, but that is because he is a complete wimp.
Sorry -- was away as I'd said. Vardan'd generally go for the bolder course of action, but wouldn't force the group. ;)
Do you need anything else GM?
I made some changes to the maps. I've added a Kenbres before the fall, to show you what Kenabres as the PCs knew it beforehand looked like, and covered up some of the Kenabres after the fall. It may take a little more work to figure out which direction to go, but will give a more true feeling of what Kenabres is like now. The PCs know the city and what roads *should* lead to where they want, but not what is now clear.
Happy Easter everyone.
Are we waiting for anything?
No clue. Waiting on DM I think.
Aye, I think so.
