I have my second interview tomorrow. Wish me luck. Also, I won't be able to post until the evening at the earliest. I wanted to give you guys the heads up, since I was a bad guy and didn't do it last time.
Because awkard people can and will show up or because the community has certain expectations? Or both ;)
Because PFS forces players to try and "win" at Pathfinder.
They aren't upset at the players for being bad people, but playing "bad" characters. In fact, they like the people...but the entire thread is all about "well they should know how to make a character..." Ugh. Pathfinder Society is the worst.
I know what you mean, but it sounded like the couple caused numerous TPKs. I'd be annoyed by that tbh.
I'm afraid I won't be able to post tonight or tomorrow. Travel across state to family is underway. Obviously Christmas Eve and Christmas are kind of iffy too for obvious reasons. Many apologies
For past feats, those are some poor str rolls.
Dicebot must be sharing good ones elsewhere.
I've been having problems with Windows 10 on my pc, infinite reboot bug... Now posting via I-pad before I depart for my family, will not be able to post much for the coming 4-5 days. Sorry guys.
In advance, Merry Christmas all!
Ok. That was a longer trip that I expected. I'm back and I have access again. I'll try to play catch up
Either I'm being extremely obtuse or you guys just aren't reading what I've been posting (or looking at the maps)
Happy 2016 to all!
Please be aware, tomorrow and Wednesday I'm gonna be in trainings all day so my ability to post during the day will be severely limited. I should be back to normal on Thursday.
Guys, I'm in a difficult position here. Jaxom won't be rejoining us, and Luc's posting has been exceptionally spotty. Unfortunately they are the two characters that are in the best position to save the party from these dire straits.
I don't want to look over their character sheets and bot them because honestly its way too much work doing the DMing and botting two characters. So, if someone wants to look over their sheets and bot them that would be helpful to me.
I very much want to see this game through to the end but I'm not going to run 2/5 of the characters in it too.
I have some thoughts on this:
1. We shouldn't bot anyone. Rather the minions of hell grow weaker.
2. This should be the final adventure, we've had a good run (wow thats a lot of posts) but motivation seems to be wavering in general.
#1 Sounds good to me.
Where did i hear that before.....Diablo III multiplayer?
#2 Was something bound to happen. One hell of a ride though.
Yes Diablo multiplayer.
Apologies, folks. Holidays and their fall out have been hell. A constant stream of house guests, ill health, and other problems that are actually worse, but aren't completely my secrets to tell have not been kind to any in my household.
Hey everyone, Jaxom's player contacted me. Seems he had a stomach bug and a hospital visit...so he should be back soon. I'll wait for him to post before moving us forward.
And let me please say this once more for the record, you guys have been an awesome set of players that have stuck with this game for over 2 years. That's a damn impressive feat.
As i recall, this was the very 1st pbp i started playing.
You've been a good GM Niles, one of the factors people would stick this long. ;)
I also got exciting experiential data on extreme dehydration. I'll be posting every day (EST), but I'm still feeling a little low energy.
Well, I'm glad you seem to be on the mend, Jaxom
And Niles, thank you for your more than fair amount of patience
So I know incorporeal things take half damage from physical sources. Would bane damage also be halved since it is tied to the thing being undead?
Yep, because the source of the damage remains unchanged.
It's wierd, but ALOT of rules for 3.X/Pathfinder are that way.
Out of curiosity Niles, how big is the dungeon?
This is it. The last part...
Sorry for not posting yesterday, I tried for an hour, could not get on
I've been having a lot of problems trying to post on this forum of late. The forum itself is a creaky pile of php (php is not exactly known for speed) and I think somebody is trying to DDos them from time to time too.
For the record,
Dying's part of the game, true enough.
On a nat 1 is a tadbit sour, after 2 1/2 years of campaigning.
I sincerely hope you can defeat them and maybe resurrect me?
Sad part of Mohrg's....well, they turn their victims into fast zombies and heal 1d6 per HD of the killed humanoid. It'll be pricey.
Go team adventurers, kill em, kill em all!
Assuming Silas was able to use it, Hecktor would get a second fort save with saving finale and potentially a minor retcon.
*Crosses fingers for Hecktor's reroll*
Three cheers for Silas!
See, this is one of those moments Hecktor's very glad to have a friend like Silas.
One 'great uncle', whom stories will be told about, if Hecktor survives to have kids.
Niles, you might notice my increase in AC, without the buffs.
I did a double check, it's the finale after all.
A +1 full plate = 10 AC, unless the +1 simply means a slot for enhancement.
+1 dodge Feat
+2 DEX
+1 amulet of natural armor, bought when putting the undead bane on my scythe.
I think Silas could move 80 ft last round since triple time adds +10 to movement rate. However, he could grab the dimension door wand from my belt to achieve the same effect.
Silas has a quick runner's shirt. Can retcon to say he used that as a swift action to gain an extra move action.
We'll keep the wand in mind for later?
Good enough, its why I went ahead and went with the posted actions. I figured some way it was legal.
Heh quick action spells, well that means Silas really really needs inspire back up. Can't 5' step, move action inspire and standard action attack in one round. Going to try the silence sword. I doubt it will stick, but it would be epic if it did.
That was a long time for the site to be down.
Yeah it was, no connection last night whatsoever.
I know..... 'not on the server' / maintenance.
Anyway, it's back up, that's good.
I'm away for a sudden trip to the zoo today, I'll post something bigger tonight.
Sorry for not posting last night was exhausted.
Anyway about this encounter. A lich with DR 15 blunt AND magic? Oh dear. I think we either need to fade to black or retcon something since neither Hecktor or Silas have a blunt weapon as far as I can tell.
That is unless the staff of healing can be used as a weapon, in which case Silas would be OK thanks to arcane strike.
Yes we well I the bard player should have made the requisite knowledge check, sorry got something else on my mind (D-Day is the 26th!)
If he is a skeletal lich then yes, he looked like a fleshy one on the picture, though.
It's a quarterstaff. So it can be used as a weapon.
OK, cool. That's Silas sorted, what about Heckor? We have had magical maces and various other bludgeoning weapons in the past but they all got sold ;)
I've got to make do with my scythe, if i deal 15 damage less, so be it.
I don't have weapon versalitity.
If you ever build a fighter again Hector, Paizo in their wisdom have fixed that with martial versatility.
Yeah...brawler feature too.
I don't know if i'd make another fighter on short notice.
The only other fighter i made, a spiked chain specialist, got recycled.
I've got some standby unused PCs, but those are low lvl casters from stranded games.
Hecktor deals 30+ damage per strike. He can muscle through it.
