I remember reading about a mythic gunslinger that could solo Cthulu in one round.
That would be pretty insane in terms of damage and modifiers. He would be spending more time waiting for C to reform than actually killing it.
Well he couldn't permanently get rid of Cthulu in one round, but he could do all neccesary damage in one round.
Is there anything else anybody wants to accomplish before crashing the meeting with this third party tonight?
If not, let me know when you're ready to move on and I'll fast forward there.
Also, will Ianna be attending this meeting, and if so how is she going to ditch her guard detail?
Bjorkus mentioned wanting to get someone to cast make whole on the hat of disguise and the quick runner's shirt.
If you guy's want to get Ianna, then waiting for her "to go to bed" and then getting her out might be a good option? But if it's more trouble than its worth, she can continue doing her own thing.
The hat will be super easy. A 3rd level caster can do that for the normal fee of 60gp.
The shirt will not be so easy. You need at least a 10th level caster in order to repair it, and there are no normal vendors in the city of that caliber. You'll have to ask around for some specific names.
That cannot be true, since we got that priest of the Rivi to cast Heal for us. He had to be at least CL 11.
Ianna will cast the repair on her hat herself since that is in her range.
I said there are no vendors of that caliber.
Then I must confess that I do not understand what the word vendor means to you in that sentence. We know a guy who sells his spell casting services who can cast the appropriate spell. Is that not a vendor? Would he refuse that casting for some reason? It seemed like we had a good client-patron rapport when last we spoke. Am I missing something here?
You don't even know his name, much less anything about him.
Alia can also cast a spell on you, but that doesn't make her a vendor.
Alia also doesn't charge.
I also know his name: Father Thriun. He hangs out at Nivi's temple. So location and name.
Should I post the link to his introduction and our bartering for his services? It's been a few months. I had to look up the particulars myself.
She just takes it out of your salary :P
Ohhhh, that priest. I thought you were talking about the one that healed Toramin's deafness.
But yeah, he's not a vendor. He's the literal head of faith in all of Grastle Hollow. The only reason he so easily agreed to make a house call is because the recipient was a long-standing member of the community that he has a personal relationship with.
I assume somebody heads over to talk to him than?
Edit: Yeah I couldn't remember for a moment as well, but luckily the Paizo forums have the ability to search through your previous posts with a keyword.
Nah, that would only require remove blindness/deafness. Even Ianna can do that.
I would like to add Father Thruin to the list of NPCs that have achieved base competence. I hope we run into this guy again in the future.
Well the NPC tracker is there for your benefit, feel free to add whoever you want to it.
I have jury duty tomorrow. I probably won’t be able to check and respond to the game until the evening hours. Though who knows. Tomorrow is a question mark.
Ooh, interesting. Tell us all about the case tomorrow! [/sarcasm]
;)
I'm proud that you are doing your civic duty. I've never been summoned.
I've been re-reading the last few months of our thread to get things straight in my head since we have all recommitted to posting. Did anybody else know that Drosil is staying in the same inn as us? So that's either a mark of respect for the inn or there might be a deeper Aestheric connection here.
Did anybody else know that Drosil is staying in the same inn as us?
Hahahahahaha, somebody finally noticed it!
Does Ianna get the message to meet?
Yes Ianna receives the message with no problem.
What do people think about the plan to work in conjunction with our fellow Aestherics?
Sounds good to me.
Sounds good to me.
+1
I was summoned once, but the caster did not make the diplomacy check; I was dismissed midday.
What is the name of our eager beaver guard captain?
Uhhh...
Samielt. Let's go with that.
Jury duty isn't so bad. Granted, it’s a disruption to daily life, with uncertainty concerning the length of that disruption, but I don’t mind going. I spent the day in a randomly shrinking potential juror pool. There were ten people left by the time the two alternates were sworn in after 4.5, maybe 5 hours of questioning by the judge, prosecutor, and defense lawyer. Maybe next year. A trial by a jury of peers is one of the best things in the USA’s Constitution.
Personal details? Was that a joke about how I used the wrong alias at first? :-p
...sure. That sounds like a good answer, I'll take it.
When did wish-craft become part of the universal school and not evocation?
Since the invention of the blockbuster wizard.
Also, I love how I can see when other people get on Google Docs, so I can snoop on Bjorkus who always looks at my maps first >.>
No objections to a segue into the evening here.
Dalton has suspicion the bar is a bit more than it seems, and Ianna's mention of a trap door only aids in that regard.
Let's time skip to compelling parts.
It's local game night tonight (as every Friday is), so don't expect much posting from me. I'll be able to give responses to inquires and might be able to chat a little, but I won't have the time to make a big moving-forward post.
If you guys want to finalize any plans or have any last-minute thoughts, now is the time to go through them. Tomorrow we shall be moving onto the meeting.
I placed everybody according to Toramin's suggestions. How does that look?
I would switch Rilka and Toramin, but otherwise looks great. Very excited to see where this goes. Hopefully, we will see some plot action tonight. :-)
Rilka and Toramin have been switched.
Sorry for having the map editable. There are too many pictures (and most of them are cropped) to have any misclicks happens. It's a really easy picture to mess up.
I'm going to give you guys about another hour or so, and then I will be moving forward.
So I know that there is going to be a lot of listening in during this scene. However the place is pretty full and fairly loud, so you won't be able to sweep the whole area with one perception check. Pick an area (such as a table, or a third of the bar) and then make a perception check to listen into that particular conversation going on. Distance will be a factor, so the closer you are the easier the check is.
You also have two options when snooping. You can either subtly listen in (basically just tuning your ears to that conversation), or you can actively eavesdrop (paying attention to the conversation heavily) and also make either a stealth or bluff check. The former carries no chance of being caught, but the latter is easier while holding a risk of being noticed.
Ianna is doing the ear tuning to the two groups behind her.
Dalton will listen to the cat-lady sitting at the bar near him, the bartender next to her, and the pair of guys above her on the map. They make a reverse "L" together.
I will put the perception here:
Can't make a detailed post now. Will do so later tonight.
We're basically in "social combat" right now. You get a turn (not necessarily a round) to do something, which is probably going to start with eavesdropping. Then everybody else in the tavern gets a turn, which means if there are any bad guys they have a chance to pick up on your presence and anybody that you risk upsetting has a chance to pick up on it and/or do something about it.
It's a quiet but tense situation.
Waiting on Rilka to clarify her first action.
Dalton, what area are you focusing on?
Dalton, what area are you focusing on?
Tables:
K5 first
K12 next
P12 after that
O5 after that.
Waiting on a response from Rilka.
Are you waiting for content or a roll? if it is the latter, then I remember that all of us on numerous instances okayed isolated rolls to continue story events and combats.

Hard to know what he's waiting for because I'm being a good boy and not looking at spoilers :)
True, but there are only two real things that he could be waiting for.
