Any chance you could delay until Burglar's Jester's Fraud is done? :-D
I almost played it, but went with Kortos Envoy instead.
Ah, ok then. If Burglar comes over and Desmond, that'd be four. I sent a PM to Wise Fox as well. I told him I would when this one came up. If he's comes in, I would guess he might bring a Paladin??? I am not that familiar with characters.
Des will be 8th level when he comes over. Lotta pre-gen chronicles to apply.
Don't know which I'll bring yet. I got a few characters I can play with.
@ Amira: This does not take place in Wanshou.

I understand there has been a call for Pathfinders. Fear not mortals for the "Sandtiger," Panfalcon Dryadson shall aid you.
------------------------------------------------------
If there is room, I'd like to join up. But I don't want to throw off the APL if that's an issue. I haven't played this character in nearly 1.5 years. Cheese and crackers.
Hey, welcome Neb. That'll make six then.
Xian -10
Mordo- 9
Amira- 11
Des- 8
Pan- 7
Wise Fox- ?
divided by 6 is 8.6666666666666
So even if Wise Fox brings a seven, the APL would be 9 with six players equals high tier.
NEB!!!

Heidi-ho there Des and everybody else.
Pan should be able to survive at higher tier*. After all he's a blaster sorcerer with some assisting spells. I usually play him with a set crew, thus the spell selection I have. I guess its time for Panfalcon to fly out on his own ;)
In posting news, I'll be at Yosemite from Friday through Monday should we be starting before then.
*He does have a Breath of Life scroll.
Which lodge are we starting from this adventure?
Technically, Absalom.

For the curious;
LN god of cities, law, merchants, and wealth
Domains Earth, Law, Nobility, Protection, Travel
Subdomains Defense, Inevitable, Leadership, Martyr, Metal, Trade
Favored Weapon light crossbow
Sacred Animal eagle; Symbol golden key
Centers of Worship Amanandar, Goka, Hongal, Lingshen, Shokuro, Xa Hoi
Nationality Taldan
Abadar is well known throughout Golarion—in Tian Xia, however, he is known as the god of Walls and Ditches, symbolizing humanity’s penchant for transforming the land by simultaneously building upon it and taking away from it. That walls and ditches can aid greatly in the defense of a city is seen as common sense as much as it is the teaching of Abadar.
The god of cities and merchants, Abadar seeks to bring civilization to the frontiers of Golarion and wealth to all who support law. Most cities in Tian Xia have at least one temple or shrine to Abadar, calling on him to protect their cities and citizens and bring wealth to their coffers. His greatest temple in all the Dragon Empires—and perhaps in all the world—is in the bustling city-state of Goka. He is typically depicted in Tian artwork as a handsome and clean-shaven Tian-Shu man carrying a golden crossbow and wearing golden robes that are muddy along the lowest edges.
So I just realized I spaced Panfalcon, after I sent him a note on Fri.
Sorry Neb! Wasn't thinking...technically the first encounter would have worked the same....
Going to hold until Neb can check in here. Again, my apologies Neb, total mess-up on my part.

Hey everybody, I'm trying to make sure I have ol' Sahrek's information correct. Now that he's grown into a Large animal companion, I need to make those adjustments and I want to make sure I've got them done correctly.
As I understand it, Sahrek will have a -1 size modifier to his attacks for being large. Thus, his bite attack is calculated thusly:
+6 for STR, +5 BAB, +1 Weapon Focus (bite), -1 Size = 5+6+1-1= 11.
Then, for his Trip attempt (comes free with successful bite), he gets a +1 to size for being large. The trip is calculated as:
+5 BAB, +6 STR, +1 Size, +1 Weapon Focus (bite) = 5+6+1+1 = 13.
I'm about 75% sure that I'm correct, but I appreciate any clarifications you guys can share with me.
So what are we doing? Talking or sleeping. If splitting up and talking, what are the groups?
They will take you to the Mothers, at the Copper Mine Office and Coffee Warehouse.

That looks right Des. I'm not sure what the +4 trip Xian mentioned would be from. Although if you don't want him to be large you can take +2 Dex and Con or something like that instead. It's somewhere in the Druid companion section.
I advocate speaking to them one at a time as a whole group and not splitting up.
|
|
Because the leaders made it sound like we were able to have meet with both Mothers at the same time in a common area.
"We wish to speak with both of your leaders and assess the situation fully, though we do not wish to bring dishonor to either of the Mothers. By my honor as a cleric of Abadar, I only wish to see all parties satisfied and hold the city's interests in highest regard."
Both men bow, ever lower, trying to outdo the other. "As you wish." The say, almost in concert.
I guess it should have been phrased "Is it possible to meet them simultanesouly?
But the GM is saying this isn't fesable and we are going to have to meet them one at a time? Or did I just make a mountain out of a molehill?
:(
Yeah, I meant as you wish, as per splitting the party to meet them simultaneously. Since that was what you had been talking about. Bad response on my part.
Bottom line: You have to go to them to meet them.

I've GM'd this one before. It's assumed that you speak to them one at a time. They have some not-nice words about each other (and perhaps a mission to give us concerning the other one should we decide to ally with one or the other).
So, I'm not saying we can't do that (meet them at the same time) but it's a little easier for the flow of the scenario to meet them individually.
Yes, it would take a fair amount of changing, but the other point is that I'm not sure that the two rivals would meet in the open to essentially discuss recruiting the party to "destroy" the other rival. In my mind it just doesn't make sense. They're bosses with henchmen. It not like you guys are that overpowered, and at this point, the Mothers, know next to nothing about you as the LT's haven't reported back.

I'm sure Amira's peacemaking mission is bound to fail by the scenario's standards; One wants trade, the other wants tradition, so it's a lose-lose situation for everyone in some aspect (to Amira.)
On one hand, "Promoting Trade" is Amira's Subdomain a big part of Abadar's portfolio. On the other, deposing the legitimate heir to a position of power destabilizes a LOT of any locale. So, Amira will speak with whichever group first. Any thoughts?

Side note from, like, days ago: Grab, as per the Universal Monster Ability, gives a +4 to the CMB to start/maintain grapple while using it.

For those of you who know (and possibly expect) my classic posting tendencies, I want to apologize for the lack of big and quality posts (especially as face in a social scenario.) Work having blocked the Paizo domain via firewall really put a far bigger damper on formulating big posts that end up being too big to risk typing in on my "prone to eating posts more often than the postmonster and wasting ten minutes." It's a little bit of a disappointment on my part, too; this scenario really ties in with a LOT of Amira's political, religious, and personal beliefs that clash with each other.
Disclaimer: I fully expect most people to respond with "No, you're fine", but wanted to preemptively apologize, do ho ho.

How can you say that? This is clearly an affront to Marisa, who requires a straight woman to her shenanigans, and that your "low quality" posts are putting a damper on her style! She demands that you post more, if only to make fun of Amira's professionalism more!
Sorry for the radio silence this weekend. We were supposed to just drive up to Indy on Sat. and drive back home, but it turned out that we stayed and didn't get home until last night. Then I come down with food poisoning/a stomach bug. Ugh!
