Going to Hong Kong on business until the 20th, please bot as needed.
...and I'm back.
I'm setup at my new place and I've got my computer set up. I should be slacking much less now.
One of the kind of neat things about the PbP format, and the way Paizo's dice roller works, is you can actually get fairly accurate "alternate realities". I was just thinking about how the party would have coped if it just didn't have one member. Cutting Farrukh, for instance, would make traps a much bigger pain (and occasional danger), while losing either him or Tanith would make fights run very differently.
It might be neat to look at where alternative choices would have led in a PbP sometime. But I may just be tired.
The main downside of me being so awesome is we never get to see what most of these traps DO.

I dunno . . .

Clearly, we need to have more dungeons with conveniently supplied livestock in the vicinity of the traps.
I told you guys we should've played Ponyfinder...
Wow, I'm exhausted. That was a rough hearing.
Anyways, waiting on a direction for you guys. What now?
Hearing?
I was watching the Hillary hearing between classes.
Would I be able to try shooting the lever with my crossbow? I want to try to shoot it to raise the portcullis so Tanith & Farrukh can get in and start chopping.
I'd give a shot to knock the lever up an AC of 25, +8 for improved cover for 32. That's a pretty tricky shot.
I'll take that shot.
This is going out to all the games I'm involved in. I'll be unavailable from October 30th to November 1st, as I'm going to a local convention and I'll only have my phone for Internet access. I'll try to keep up to date with my campaigns, but for those games I'm playing in--please feel free to bot me to move things along if it comes to that.
For the campaigns I'm currently GMing--I'll be back as soon as I can on November 1st to move us along. :)
Weren't Rynjin and Gark bickering a little while back on whether or not Magic Circle Against Law was worth having up? :P
Mebbe *sniff* mebbe.
Do I save my Action Point then?
Yes, that's still yours.
So, anyone think we should rest here once we deal with the inevitable?
We're not exactly swimming in restorations are we?
I have one tucked in my back pocket for just such an occasion.
Here's hoping that Cleric hasn't suffocated...
Hrm. It might be worth pooling cash for a wand of restoration. I have little doubt we'll get some good use out of one.
Troof.
Sorry about the loafing today. I had a post ready, then realized I had to make some modifications to the module here, and I'm right in the thick of NaNoWriMo now. I'll get up a post either tonight or tomorrow.
So, so sorry. I'll get the rest up first thing tomorrow. National Novel Writing Month has been kicking my ass and I'm just feeling swamped.
And now the asskicking boot is on the other foot! My foot! I mean I hit 50k. And it's 1L;)) and okay I can't even write "1:00" without having to concentrate on typing.
I will have much more time now that I'm not under any pressure to beat my stinking friends. Starting tomorrow, more time. Eager as anyone to keep this game rolling.
I'm guessing people are bashful about breaking the 300-page threshold with the next post!
Come on, folks! It's a milestone to be proud of! :)
As we're once again approaching the holiday season, I encourage all my DMs to make sure their Paizo wish list is up to date. For reasons.
Taking a short break from the Paizo forums. Will be back later tonight, or tomorrow morning.
I'm sure Fish and Rynjin can guess why.
?!
Everything okay?
I didn't realize anything in my post implied anything was particularly wrong. Things are fine, and I apologize for my ambiguity.
Who's Fish?
Oh, did I say Fish? I meant Gark. That's his Skype username right now. I was in a hurry.
Sorry, I'll get a post up later tonight. Planning for a "demo session" of the Grimm RPG tomorrow at the local library. If it goes well, I may be able to start volunteering there with a monthly tabletop gaming group, so wish me luck!
Or focus your luck on Jelani, because holy crap, good luck with that whole "baby" thing, Jelani!

Okay, home with baby now. Everything went well. I will start posting again when I can.
Happy to hear it! Congrats!
Congratulations! Boy or girl?
Congrats. :)
Gain 500 experience points!
But seriously, amazing news, Jelani! Congratulations!
A girl, thank the gods. Boys are so naughty.
If anybody has any to-dos in town, now is the time to bring them up.
Before we return to the Cairn, I'd like to bring up possibly putting the kolyarut down for good in case it comes back (and to be honest, I'm kinda convinced it will. Seriously, it's more persistent than the T-800).
Astraden, do you have any spells that could inflict chaos damage?
She could prepare Chaos Hammer in her Domain slot (or a normal slot, for that matter)...but none of us know Chaotic damage is required to shut off its Regeneration.
Fair enough. I thought we knew enough that it would work.

Asked a D&D-inexperienced friend about this. Gonna go with the chaos hammer unless KC puts the kibosh on it.
[7:51:30 PM] fish: i need your opinion on a D&D thing
[7:52:24 PM] fish: if you were fighting a lawful devil-type thing would you prepare a spell called "chaos hammer"
[7:54:25 PM] theworstname: how does a chaos hammer work
[7:55:26 PM] fish: basically it slows and wounds lawful people, and neutral people to a lesser degree
[7:55:43 PM] fish: (this isn't a trick question i just need to justify to myself that i'm not metagaming)
[7:57:00 PM] fish: theres this monster we're going in for a round 2 against and we don't know its regeneration is only stopped by chaotically-aligned attacks, but we as players know
[7:57:21 PM] theworstname: i dont see why you wouldnt use it
[7:57:26 PM] fish: alright
[7:57:29 PM] fish: thanks~
[7:57:42 PM] theworstname: i mean if you know its lawful
[7:57:58 PM] fish: yeah we do
Consider the kibosh stayed.
