Had a minor crisis with my youngest granddaughter yesterday. She is fine, just needed to be watched since her babysitter had to back out last minute. Will get a full post up today.
No problem!
Hope y'all are enjoying Wrath of the Righteous on the PC as much as I am!
So far so good. Only logged 2hr so far, half of which was deciding I wanted to run a stonelord paladin.
I will be off next three days. Both if needed.
Isabel's player is slammed until the end of the month. Please feel free to give orders for her.
I was waiting for her. I will post orders for her more quickly during September as needed.
Nice to see you, CariMac! Hope you make it through the month okay!
Going to be a busy week for me. I may not get the chance to post. Please bot Tilver if needed. I will be back to normal by Friday.
Got caught up in preparation for Yom Kippur. Will not be on again til Friday so please bot as needed.
I'll be attending GenCon Online for the next four days, so please don't expect much of me.
What would it take to move this rune off of the Falchion onto another weapon?
How do you determine how many runes a weapon can hold?
In the couple of hours we were waiting to heal up could we have moved the rune to one of the weapons we use?
The rules on runes can be found HERE.
It takes a full day to transfer a rune and requires a Craft check.
The number of property runes a weapon or armor can have is equal to the value of its potency rune. A +1 weapon can have one property rune, but it could hold another if the +1 weapon potency rune were upgraded to a +2 weapon potency rune. Since the striking and resilient runes are fundamental runes, they don't count against this limit.
Have some IRL stuff going on. Might be less responsive the next week or so. Please bot as needed to move things along.
Will be off for next two days, bot as needed.
"I'm less worried about us overruling them, and more worried about anyone who comes after us or sneaks by us. These banes are open now and it's only a matter of time before some evil finds it way down here to release what's within. Evil draws in evil.
If you say leave it sealed, I'll not contest you, but I pray to the Saints that the wards continue to hold, especially when we know some are failing or are compromised." Tung replies.
We might want to discuss this as a group to have a general gameplan/understanding of how we want to deal with the banes. Tung is right that now that the vault is open, others could come find them. On the other hand, can we actually destroy them?
I've played this before, though it's been long enough that I don't remember all the details. However, I am happy to hear what others have to say.
You have been told that Danar's theory was that evil could not be destroyed. Destroy the banes and the evil simply reforms elsewhere. He believed sequestration was the answer.
You've also been told that repairing the Warding Generator (which requires the Staff of Shards) is the only way to seal the Banewarrens.

Is this common knowledge (Lore:Ptolus/Demons/Celestial)? I'd imagine the group would have recollected this to Tung when he joined up, but I don't recall him being present for these discussions. In Tung's mind, the Saints have him means to thwart evil and he intends to do just that.
Mirko is curious why this trap is designed to prevent non-LG creatures from getting in. Haven't all the banes been designed to contain something? This seems like a bank vault door, not a prison cell door.
It's also possible Danar was crazy. Just saying.

Yes, this has been explicitly stated by both the Church and the Inverted Pyramid. Please assume that Tung knows this.

Because he wanted to assure only Lawful Good people could ever access the vault? Y'know, to put more stuff in there prior to its sealing?

So, I've been trying to convey a bit of Danar's story as we go along, but you should at least understand that Danar and his companions were exceptionally selfless and holy people. Danar was a living saint when he built the Banewarrens. But he was eventually corrupted by an evil artifact and became the most dangerous figure in Praemal's history - Eslathagos Malkith, the Dread One. After decades of the Dread One's evil domination of the world, his former companions (including his wife, Parnaith) managed to kill him and close the Banewarrens forever. Or so they thought.
Skar for one us just happy to be along. If he is told something would probably kill him in particular he is probably going to avoid it. Other than that, he likes the kid and wants to see what kind of man he grew into, though he keeps klucking his tongue at tung.
I have not been hit by a bus, but it feels like it. Work buried me this week. I'll try to get posts up tomorrow.
I hate the end of the federal fiscal year.
Oof. I hope things get better, Isabel.
Ooof. Glad to hear you're able to come up for air. Federal end of year means TONS of accounting and everyone scrambling to figure out budgets for next year.
That's it exactly. I have close out reports due, and people wanting the new fiscal year budgets. All like last week. Never mind that Congress hasn't even "given" us our money yet.
I'd love to get your thoughts on Adventure Paths HERE.
Questions have been answered. Good luck.
Gah! I am such a completionist, haha. I want to open ALL the doors. This is why I'm only just liberating Drezen in PF WotR CRPG after 112hrs.....
Go on. You know you want to...
I want it to be know, I am always readying an action to nope out if they ipen a vault and unleash Yog-sathoth. King in Yellow and Shub Nigurrath are acceptable alternativw triggers.
Funny you should mention them.
Ah, elder evil cat in the hat. Well played.
FYI, I'm looking for 1-2 players for my online "home" game of Age of Ashes Online.
@Silas, for what it's worth, I home rule spending three actions to cast a two action spell. Haven't had it break anything yet but I'm sure higher levels I'll encounter something that will be broken with it.
It's one of the changes that I haven't quite grasped from a game design standpoint as to why you can't do it. I imagine I'll need to put a level cap on readied spells for higher level play not that I think on it a bit.
It seems unnecessarily punitive to caster classes.
True. But given that casters were somewhat nerfed in this edition (as a martial heavy player, I'm not too upset...), it seems on brand. However, I'd love to see a trait for spells that could be readied or something. Time to browse the boards for some reasoning behind the design decision!
That trait is: One action.
Sorry I've been away. I've been ill. I'll try to catch up over the weekend.
My family arrived today, if I don't post until after the weekend it's because my wife's scowl of disapproval has prevented me from opening my laptop while family is here. Haha!
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone! Its super wet here. Hopefully, everyone has a safe and healthy holidays!
Merry Christmas, Gang!
Merry Christmas, all!
Happy Christmas everyone!
Nice thinking outside the box.
Happy New Year all!!!!
Hey folks. I'm back but may be intermittent in the coming weeks. TLDR; my dad had a massive heart attack and is in the hospital, so please send positive thoughts and prayers.
Ritual sacrifice to the Elders gods are acceptable too. (dark humor is a coping mechanism...)
Anyway, I should be able to get back on a schedule but things could change immediately. Will keep GM posted at least if anything turns south.
Happy New Year! And thanks for pardoning my absence.
Prayers for you and yours, Tung! Take all the time you need.
<3 you peoples.
I will be going on vacation from Saturday through Wednesday. I will try and check the boards in the evenings but I may be slow to post over the next few days. Feel free to bot me as needed.
Friends, I’ve very badly injured my hand today and can’t move it. I’ve had many stitches. I’m typing this with only one hand.
I’m going to step away from my games for several days to a week. If I am a player, please bot me. If I am the GM, I’ll see you in a few days.
