I’m really considering Godling for Tanith (if KC will allow it) down the road.
‘Armored by Brawn’ would be a good look for him.
Nah. That's separate from the gun thing.
I'll probably take the Luck Domain.
Oh, KC, does Norebo have any additional domains somewhere? Or sub-Domains? He only seems to have 3.
Go ahead and add Madness and Charm.
I think I'll just stick with the ol' Alchemist/Gunslinger combo.
Can he have the Revelry subdomain too? Seems like it fits.
Regardless, I'd probably take the Luck Domain.
Yeah, I'm not too familiar with the subdomains (I assumed they just came automatically with the main domains), but that sounds perfect for Norebo.

I really like that Seer line, incidentally.
Godling looks okay to me. A fun side effect is that you'd be allowed to wear dragonhide, if it ever came up. The rule goes that, of his worshipers, only Kord and his descendents get to wear it. ;D
I can't find the ability that lets you add Strength to AC. There's Legendary Beauty, which lets you add Con or Cha to AC later on, and Instinctive Parry, which lets you add half your BAB to AC while wearing light armor or less. Parry with your pecs, eh?
EDIT: Oh, and the Force of Brawn ability, which lets you add your Str bonus to saving throws.
You take the trait that lets you gain an oracle revelation and use your highest stat for it. In this case it'd be the one that lets you use charisma (replaced by strength) in place of dex for AC.
So the Advanced Class Guide is available to the public this Thursday.
How do you want Farrukh and Tanith to handle any updates? Wait for level 6 or just make them when the book becomes available?
Yeah, I'm not too familiar with the subdomains (I assumed they just came automatically with the main domains), but that sounds perfect for Norebo.
Sub-Domains are parceled out piecemeal, not wholesale. The general rule is that a god gets 5 Domains and 6 Sub-Domains.
EX. Pharasma gets Death, Healing (Resurrection), Knowledge (Thought), Repose (Ancestors, Souls), and Water (Ice).
I just don't think any of the sub-Domains for Norebo's Domains particularly fit.
We'll wait for level 6, for two reasons.
1. Changing things now may just delay Blackwall Keep further. Currently, I'm planning on just wrapping up current encounters (plus Farrukh's visit to the temple of Istus, if he still wants to do that) and then handwaving the rest of shopping or playing it as one big group.
I'm good with hand waving a chunk of this. I enjoy the minutia of shopping and hanging out with Carina but I wouldn't mind getting back to adventuring soon too.
Just for my own reference: It is the 13th of Planting, mid-afternoon. You're on Day 21 of the campaign as a whole—on the 21st of Coldeven, you set out for the Whispering Cairn.
I really should get those recaps done before Blackwall Keep starts...
Currently waiting for Farrukh's last? gamble, Cuetzpalli's "caught up" post, and anything else Astraden and Eben want to do. Then we'll start speeding things along.
There's a brawling warpriest archetype that's perfect for Tanith but I just blew all my cash on that armor. =/
I'll buy the barding. Should be 30 GP for non-humanoid, medium-sized hide armor, right?
I skimmed posts and am "caught up". I didn't read them in detail as there were just too many, but the gist is people did stuff and I bought barding. Lemme know if I missed anything else important in there.

You can borrow some of mine if you like. Assuming KC is actually using the UCamp Retraining rules.

Sorry, did I forget to say? It'd be 60 gp (15x2x2), but it's only 45, since it's currently Broken.
I'm generally fine with people switching out classes when a better fit becomes available. That said, it might be better to wait until the next levelup.
Anyone want to buy this +1 mithril breatplate off Tanith? Otherwise can we retcon and say that Tanith didn't go through with it?
I suddenly find myself without a use for mithril armor.
What's the second x2 for? Rarity or something?
I'll mark off another 15 GP.
Barding costs double. Having barding made for a bipedal creature like a spinosaurus costs double again.
We can retcon. Can you sum up the archetype for me?
It's called Sacred Fist.
Gives up armor and weapon proficiencies for expanded skill list and some monk proficiencies. Gains wisdom to AC and a scaling miscellaneous bonus similar to a monk's.
Gives up sacred weapon and focused weapon for flurry and monk unarmed damage scaling.
Gives up bonus feats for bonus style feats and something like Stalwart for fortitude saves.
Gives up sacred armor for a ki pool.
Incidentally, Tanith, if you pick up "Force of Brawn":
If you are a mighty godling, you may also use your Strength modifier rather than the normal ability modifier for three Dex- or Cha-based skills of your choice. Once these skills have been selected, the choice cannot be changed.
No idea what "mighty godling" means, but this could allow you to put ranks in Acrobatics and have a "Total Defense" mode where you just focus all your attention on your "brawn armor". So, Tanith just stands where he is and flexes a lot. :P
He already does that! =P
Level six, where are you?
Those of you who haven't refreshed your Action Point totals, do it now. If you spent any number of Action Points during this intermission, just subtract 1 from the total. You're gonna need those.
So, you should either have 6/7 or 7/7 of your Action Points. Also, obviously remember to reset your abilities-per-day/choose spells (or you can do the latter later). As soon as handwaved shopping is complete, we start the third installment.
Encounter at Blackwall Keep is generally regarded as a fairly easy adventure compared to those that precede it, so I wouldn't worry. Use this installment as an opportunity to relax, take chances, and only have one guard during the night shift. :)
I KNEW I was forgetting something while shopping...
What sort of contraceptives are available in Greyhawk? (Campaign setting and/or city?) And would Carina be able to use Craft (Alchemy) to make them?
Between magic and the fact that primitive contraceptives were already around in the middle ages (and maybe earlier), I'm thinking they're available, and Carina can make them.
If you want specifics on "what sort", I'll ask my pretentious friend who thinks he knows a lot about history when I get home.
So I guess my question is would you allow me to make night tea with Craft (Alchemy) then...
EDIT: Ninja'ed! Crafty KC...
Keep in mind that not everything in the PFSRD is okay (Golarion =/= Greyhawk, after all), but yeah, night tea seems fine.
I'm just gonna point out that this adventure path's "romance-to-undead" ratio is absolutely unacceptable. Twilight had more of the living dead than we do.
To say nothing of casualties from worms vs. casualties from beetles.
Unacceptable.
Oh, give it time...
Right, orders of business:
Shopping:
Other:
Everything else has been successfully purchased.
Since Tanith’s armor is no longer a thing, he’ll be keeping an eye out for an amulet of mighty fists instead.
So I guess my question is would you allow me to make night tea with Craft (Alchemy) then...EDIT: Ninja'ed! Crafty KC...
By my reading Night Tea is less a contraceptive and more a guarantee if you never want to have kids ever. I'd be careful.
Note that you guys will be waiting at least a day for Eben's armor to be enchanted.
renders a humanoid female sterile if drunk every day.
If you've resolved it all, that's fine, but you were scribing some scrolls earlier and it looked like you flubbed some of the checks.
Hrm. I just realized I have no idea what hooks we’re supposed to be following to take us to Blackwall Keep.
Maybe I can get a hold of a Sending spell to check up on Alessia? She DID say she was heading into Mistmarsh...
That might work.
The hook hasn't been provided yet. It will potentially be slightly different from the original book (the original adventure path discourages GMs from moving away from Diamond Lake, while this party seems pretty set on never going back), but not very.
That might work.
That said, the hook you guys already know is that the Mistmarsh is where the rumors of the worm-ridden zombies are coming from.
Alrighty.
Carina would still like to contact her mother, if she can.
Well, she can find a cleric. To avoid introducing another character for no reason, Yenaver just happens to have it prepared.
That's convenient!

The AP actually expects the PCs to stick around Diamond Lake?
Did I miss the part of the Player's Guide that says "Make sure every PC is a masochist and has no aspirations"?
