@ GM- in the current combat, I think the Dark Young is supposed to drain Adder with strength damage.
Adder gets a DC 24 Fort save -
Sucking Maws (Su)
A dark young of Shub-Niggurath that successfully pins a creature it is grappling automatically inflicts 1d4 points of Strength drain on that creature. A DC 24 Fortitude save reduces this effect to 1 point of Strength drain.
@ Adder- sorry to hurt your character, but I was wondering why this creature would want to pin you instead of attack us with all it's tentacles. I.E: what the purpose of the pin would be-- and it's the near auto strength damage.

Elena Nethermore |

Hey guys if anyone is so interested I've joined a PF2 game where the GM is doing a riff on the Hell's Rebels adventure path. We haven't started yet and are looking for a couple of more players. Lemme know if interested.
Would love to but my plate is quite full currently.

I have two games that seem to be dying (not this one, although I think I am the last original character :) ) so I'm up for it. Can you post a link?

GM SpiderBeard |

Congratulations everyone on completing Chapter Four! Huge accomplishment, particularly for Lena who has been around since the very very beginning.
We're now moving onto Chapter Five of Carrion Crown. As you may know, this AP loves to play monster of the week. We've seen ghosts, a Frankenstein monster, werewolves, and Lovecraftian horror. Next up: vampires.
Please level up your characters and I'll process loot for sale when I have a bit. Ashes at Dawn is coming up next!

Just a reminder. Lena grew up in Caliphas as the indentured servant (slave) of a rich family. She was kicked out when they decided she was a nuisance after her sorcerer powers first started. She was rescued on the streets by a priest of Desna (one Alice), who educated her. She went wandering after that. The prof saved Vladlena from zombies one day. She went her own way for a time but returned when the prof died.
So a few of things
The family lena was the slave of might still be around.
Whoever sent the zombies might be still around.
Lena lived on the streets of Caliphas for a while, so she likely knows her way around the poor areas. Or doesn't. Your choice. But she may be remembered.
Alice, priest of Desna may still be there
This is just a few ideas. Use them as you wish. :)
Also, Lena really does not like undead.

Loot table is updated. This last dungeon was very scant on loot but I suppose that's this AP in general.
Waiting on Whiskeyjack and Lena to level up before I get going, but the fate of the Face of Dagon/Sausage Effigy needs to be determined and your planned way to get to Caliphas.

GM SpiderBeard |

Also total value on the loot table is 6673 each IF you sell the Face of Dagon, and nobody keeps the belt of giant strength which seems like an obvious pick for half the group.

Wren the FeatherMage |

Well, I think the Face should be destroyed, so yeah...might be a thin payout.
Jameson, please take the belt.

Whiskeyjack Dunaldthal |

I hate to agree with the bird, but yeah Whiskeyjack would be in favor of destroying the face.
As for leveling up, I am without my computer today or I would get it done. Don't let me hold you up. I'll play a level down until I can get my character updated.

GM SpiderBeard |

Remaining gear is a paltry 1839.67 gold each. Accepting that Whiskeyjack will level up when he can you guys are good to go. I need to know if you're walking, riding, teleporting, sailing, or whatever to get to Caliphas.

Phantom charioting, I would say. Lena casts it (ten minute cast) then away. Fast (100ft/rd), lasts 11 hours, ignores much terrain.

I use half plus 1. Easier

Bronin Dohari |

Excellent. Half Plus 1. But, as an aside, I do love the Glass Cannon Podcast rule for HP's: Both the PC and GM roll the HD die and the PC takes the larger of the two.
Updating Bronin and his horse Patience with correct HP's.

Wren the FeatherMage |

For buying/selling your base value is 13,600 and the purchase limit is 100,000.
Lol. I don't think if we rubbed all our gold together as a party we could hit 100,000.
With not much money to spend, Wren's shopping will be RP and gossip based, mostly.

![]() |

Sorry, have had the flu. Back now.

GM SpiderBeard |

Actually guys further to Wren's comments I've been slowly icing some of my games for the holidays as the posting rates have slowed. This one has around half the group posting regularly, but I think if we wanna kick off this chapter in style we can wait until the new year.

![]() |

good plan.

Whiskeyjack Dunaldthal |

FYI, from tomorrow though the New Year, I will be on a really crazy schedule. Between work, the holidays, family visits, and trying to get my wife's new vet clinic open for business, I won't be able to check and post on the boards as regularly as I'd like. Please bear with me.
So, with that said, I'mm all for it, SB!

Bronin Dohari |

Sorry for lack of posts recently. My work revolves around Obamacare and it's Open Enrollment. So, I was stupid silly busy with 12-14 hour days.
That's all done. I'm back to posting daily.
I also want to wish everyone a Very Merry Christmas! I hope you all have a terrific time with your friends and loved ones. I just love how the kids get all giddy about Christmas and it's infectious. Hope all of you are getting the same loving vibe.
If I may ask, what are your Christmas Movies for today/the week?
My goals are to see Die Hard and I want to see Adventures of Baron Munchausen (I hope it stands the test of time). I may even try to "Time Bandits" if I don't get booted off the T.V.

Happy new year from Australia. We get it before most of you. :)

Bronin Dohari |

Happy New Years! Wow, It's sort of amazing that Australia and The West Coast (I live in LA) are soooo far apart time zone wise.

Whiskeyjack Dunaldthal |

FYI my grandmother died yesterday and I will be traveling tomorrow and Thursday to get to the funeral and back. If I am in your game, please bot me as needed. If you are in my game, carry on and be patient. I'll post when I can. Thanks for your understanding.
also - unless someone dragged him out of bed, Whiskeyjack is still sleeping off his drunken stupor.
