You also had bad luck with Oskar going down. If he had stayed up a round or two more, it would have gone a lot differently I think.
yeah, groups have like, A small character. Usually a rogue. Who would have been eaten.
Paizo really overestimates low level characters and doesn't get how fast the dice gods will get you dead.
If you had gone left, you would have stumbled on the next with sleeping goblins, and you probably would have gotten a round of coup de grace in, reducing their numbers to half in one go.
As it was, the dogs start barking, roll perception till at least a few gobbos wake up. One gobbo gets kicked out of the next to go deal with the dogs. Then gobbo stumbles onto you and raises the alarm.
If perception checks had been bad all fight, they might not have woken up untill much much later.
might be one less point of damage because you're shrunked
They're 6hp Goblins. We don't need CdG. We just need to *hit* them, Lol.
I forget, how did we do HP? Roll it? Take half the die? None of the above?
We had an option to roll or take the average i think
In which case, I'm gonna take average. May I safely assume 5.5 rounds up to 6?
well, half +.5 as there's no zero on the die.
I manage to roll it anyway but theres no zero...
And HERE is "Flurrying Grace", the custom feat Woran is letting me "playtest". It's also linked on my profile for future reference.
This puts my damage back on par with a regular strength-based Monk, but after a while if it seems like it's overpowering encounters I'm happy to replace it with something like Power Attack instead.
Feel free to comment if you have any thoughts, now or in the future. The basis for this feat is Two-Weapon Grace.
Assuming we loot the place and get out scott free
Justin is adding youthful appearance and unseen servant to his list
(he was trying to make a longer lasting reduce person and accidentally hit on that spell)
taking average for the die. We know how much the dice love me.
3rd level feat : Extra arcane reservoir. because..
At 3rd level, the brown-fur transmuter learns to harness the power of her magic to empower her transmutations. Whenever the brown-fur transmuter casts a transmutation spell using one of her arcanist spell slots, she can expend 1 point from her arcane reservoir as a free action to bolster the spell. If the spell grants a bonus to an ability score, the bonus then increases by 2. If it grants a bonus to more than one ability score, only one of the ability scores gains this bonus. The brown-fur transmuter cannot expend more than 1 point from her arcane reservoir in this way.
This ability replaces the arcanist exploit gained at 3rd level.
Its half + 1 for HP, but if you are feeling adventurous you can roll.

Not that adventurous. I'll take my 6hp bird in the hand.
Come to think of it, that's quite a bird...

It's not like he actually has Wolf ears and fangs, but everything about him is wolflike. When he was found, as a baby, he actually was covered in a fine grey-white fur, and he still shows it when the light catches him at the right angle.. A white diamnd-shaped patch in his hair gave him his Birthname:"Snowflake". There was only one problem. Whenever Snowflake became upset, he yelled in a tongue the common folk didn't understand, and although the cleric in Sandpoint said it wasn't an evil tongue, people mistrusted him. Snowflake therefore shied away, and stayed with the cleric, who had a soft spot for foundlings. Snowflake learned a lot about healing peopl. This way he could 'redeem'himself a litle bit to the townfolk. Still, when the temple burnt down, Snowflake knew they wanted a scapegoat, and he fled.
He took to traveling, and took a name, Vy Baro, after a folkhero, the Wise Wolf. On his travels he learned how to defend himself, and he learned what he really was

BTW, I plan on keeping Kn.(religion) and Kn.(history) maxed, to show that Dayo is learning more about his faith and the outside world, respectively. They're both currently at +8.
Diplomacy and Acrobatics are the other two I'll keep maxed, both currently at +9.
When we get back to civilization, I'd like to purchase a Masterwork Tool (flowing monk robes) that provide a +2 circumstance bonus to Acrobatics vs. attacks of opportunity ^_^
Oh! I'd forgotten! Thank you!!
Downside to PbP: so much time elapses after a cool idea that you can forget about it entirely
I do the same for most of my characters, too. It's easier to list "Kn.(local/religion/history) +8" than "Kn.(local) +8, Kn.(religion) +9, Kn.(history) +7".
Justin and I have History maxed. It's thematic for the two Paladins to have Religion. Thematic for you and Justin to max Arcana. Thematic for Justin to have Dungeoneering. Oskar has Local. Nobility is at least covered if we need it.
So if someone focuses on Nature and Planes, and dabbles in Geography and Engineering, we should have everything covered ^_^.
Have fun! Dont do things I wouldnt do ;)
So. Weird question. Would any of you be up for a PFS play by post of a scenario? I have a real life player that isnt doing too well with his health, and therefor likes PbP. He can sometimes not post for a few days due to this, but that is no problem for me.
Due to the nature of his absense, I rather not make a public recruiting post (it all not being a big deal is part of why its so nice for him).
He is lvl 2 at the moment, and has played very little. Both scenarios and modules are an option.
I'm in, i can do a lot of the newer 1-5s but the market for pfs scenarios is pretty dry.
I dont know if you feel like an evergreen? Crypt of the Everflame is an evergreen for example. Can also be done 1 time at lvl 2.
I'm not set up for PFS. /shrug

Would you like to be? Its not that hard.
Maybe? I mean, no harm, right? What's the whole process entail?
Yeah, the wolf made a guide. :)
The super super super short version is that you need a 20 point buy character of either a core race, wayang, tengu, nagaji, kitsune, oread, sylph, undine, of the fire guys.
Classes are all OK, and for some you can pick between either normal or unchained (except for summoner, that is only unchained).
Archetypes are on a case by case basis.
You get 150 GP starting gold.
Make character.
Have fun.
If you like, we can do the paperwork later :)
Call me a "definitely probably". :-)
How long would I have to settle into a character?
Paul, our intrepid bartender from concordia. He used to do a ton of D&D back in the day.
As for setteling into a character, once you reach lvl 2, you can no longer change a character. As long as you are lvl 1 you are free to change literally everything.

That's all well and good, but I've still got about five different character ideas I'd like to try. :)
Nothing stops you from making all five. And if you play in PbP, you can even play them all at the same time! :P
Mmm, yes, because maybe I'm not schizoid enough! :P
It would need to be 5 different games :P
Lau, Wolf, would you 2 be up for crypt of the verflame? Its a repeatable, for 3XP.
If not I can check if there is a scenario. But I rather not eat into your precious 1-5's unless I have to.
My first impulse is either an UnRogue, or a fighter with an axe, eventually going into Smashing Style.
