Oh! Also will be putting together our traveling troupe we had discussed before during this month’s downtime. I still have it all built up in my alias.
Technically Freya has a +11 at minimum with the free use of inspiration on Handle Animal checks, if that matters.
Oh! Even better!
plus any applications of aid other
Wow, that sucked...
Well, my +2 makes it 16...if Isabel gets a 10 that is 18...and if I’m allowed to use Inspire Competence that will get us to 20! So we still have hope!
|
Alternatively I take 10 and with your aids get 20 :D That way theres no chance of failure.
That's probably the way to go actually. Isabel takes 10 on the primary check and if Freya and Darian both take 10 on aids then we'll always hit 20. Works with Freya in the lead too, but she has pets already! I'm already earmarking level 7 for Leadership and a cute owl bear cohort! :D
Sorry, I've got a splitting headache and am off to bed. Update tomorrow.
At least the dice hate everybody.
Sorry, very busy ATM. Updates will resume in a day or two.
I have spells that can make that happen if I can get close enough. With the party hanging back and relying on missile fire (which is the smart move), I can't get close enough without making Freya very vulnerable.
I had mentioned us having some alchemists fire in the group loot. I thought I had mentioned handing them out...
When I used my Lorenaster to identify them, in the last paragraph, I said:
After a brief pause, he adds "He later told me he had learned that acid worked well against the beasts too. So on his future hunts, he always carried a flask of acid and a flask of alchemist fire with him. I believe we have a couple flasks of the fire with us. We should distribute those. And when we get them down, pile them up and burn them. After we get the troll blood we need, of course..."
__________
So...I think it’d be reasonable for those to have been handed out before hand.
Loot:
MW Banded mail.
Studded leather +1.
780gp in various precious stones.
Anyone want anything there?
nope nothing
Been a hectic stretch for me lately. Had some life things crop up that have kept me occupied, and picked up a second job to try and help out with some financial strains I’ve been having. If I’m a bit more silent than usual, please don’t take it as a lack of interest.
I will continue posting as I can, but anything involving heavy mechanics posts may be slower than usual from me. If it comes down to it, this is my official authorization for the DM to take an action on my behalf to keep things moving rather than risk slowing the game because of me.
You heard him! He just volunteered to throw himself off . . .. Uhhhh . . .. Nevermind.
Sorry, no update tonight. Too busy at home.
Loot!
3 pieces of amber worth 100 gp each (Coinage)
robe of vermin (???)
42 cp, 55 sp, 6 gp, (Coinage)
simple silver ring worth 65 gp. (Sell?)
Goodberries (5) (Group Loot?)
Potion of cure moderate wounds (2) (Group Loot?)
Scroll of summon nature’s ally II (Group Loot?)
Wand of cure light wounds (CL2 ,26 charges) (Group Loot?)
6 feather tokens (tree). (Nixie)
As you saved herself and her lover without asking for reward she also promises to aid you in guarding the Narlmarches and keep you updated about threats within its borders. This grants a +2 bonus to your nation’s Stability. (Isabel: can you add this to the spreadsheet?)
Also, as a side note to Isabel: in another game I just started, one of the PC’s is named Isabella. My autocorrect is having a lot of agony with this. Hahaha
This one, in fact.
No update last night as the board crashed while I was doing so.
Cut'n'paste for all my games.
Thursday, 18 July, in the wee hours of the morning, I get on an airplane and leave for the international Boy Scout World Jamboree. I'll be 1 of the roughly 120 people working on JUST the archery ranges, helping the attendees have some fun.
I will have only my phone for electronic access, but AT&T has wired the dickens out of the facility, and a signal should never be my problem. Power on the other hand . . .. There will be a limited number of places to plug things in (compared to the tens of thousands of attendees) and no safe place to plug something in and walk away from it, which means time spent charging is time spent NOT doing any of the things people are there to do.
I am going to try to check in and cover anything I should cover, but I don't know for sure how well it is going to go.
I won't be home again until 3 August.
Actually, part of the reason I've been less responsive the past little bit is I've been getting ready to go. Still have a lot to do, honestly.
If you need to bot me to keep the story moving, BOT ME.
Sorry, it's been one of those weeks from hell for me. Can't update at the moment, I hope to get some free time tomorrow.
Not trying to jinx anything here, by any means, but I’m asking to get a feel for the scope of power in the world in this game:
How prevalent IS resurrection magic in this campaigns Golarion? Is it something that happens commonly amongst the wealthy? Is it generally considered something only “the greatest of clerics” can do, if for a good cause? Or is it the stuff of legends?
I mean, in basic Golarion, there aren’t very many NPC’s (that aren’t enemies) who have very many PC class levels...
Sorry, no update today. I have to be up early tomorrow. As in before the sun rises early. :(
There are actually quite a few and it's a hazard of doing business inside the pathfinder society. If you have ever played society. Death is common and PC's come back all the time if they have the money. The Pathfinder lodges are very prevalent throughout Golarion. Raise Dead only takes a 5th level cleric.
How does a 5th-level society cleric cast raise dead?
It’s a level 5 spell. So it would take a 9th level cleric.
And as a reference, leaders of the various orders within the church of Abadar are level 9-10 from what I can tell. And these are the leaders. And the ruler of the city of Absalom is level 13.
So...unless our particular version of Golarion has high level NPC’s just scattered around all over...then I’d have to think resurrection magic isn’t just readily available.
Not to mention the comparative expense of such a diamond compared to people’s incomes. Using the cost of living rules, an average person gets by on 120 gold per year. A wealthy one 1,200 gp per year.
So, 41 years of the average persons living expenses, or a bit over 4 years of a wealthy persons expenses. Assuming said diamond is even available.
_________________
Basically: are we dealing with a high magic Golarion where if we have the coin, we can conveniently find someone capable of casting it? Or are we in a low magic Golarion where if we have the coin, we may still be in a pickle to find someone able and willing to do it?
Asking for a friend...
;-P
My early morning involved a pair of broken teeth being yanked out, so I'm floating on painkillers at the moment. Normal service resumes tomorrow.
Ouch.
Speedy recovery.
Sorry about last night, I had a few problems with the computer. All fixed and running smoothly again thankfully.
"Life is what happens while you are making other plans."
On my arrival day at the World Scout Jamboree, I got caught in a DELUGE of rain. My phone refused to charge because of water detected in the charging port. It has been drained of power sitting in a ziploc bag of rice for a couple of weeks, and STILL reports water in the charging port.
I'll find out later how bad off my phone really is. It can charge through induction, at the worst. Just didn't have any induction chargers at the Jamboree!
Posting this to my games, and I will come back later today and try ot catch up through them.
Thank you for your understanding!
Oh, and the group of 16 staffers (including me) running the 30-target 10m static archery range had people step up to the Shooting Line and throw arrows downrange almost 10,000 times (for 50,000 arrows), including 1 blind archer, 1 wheel-chair bound archer that we held up so she could hoot standing like everyone else, and 1 one-armed archer.
Sorry, I've been very busy all week and now my schedule is shot to pieces. So no update tonight. Hopefully things will settle down in a day or two.
Thankfully no Boy scouts are involved. :)
Argh. I just noticed that everyone else is level 6 and somehow I missed that level-up.
Thanks for botting me. It's been a busy last couple of weeks.
No time to update tonight, sorry.

Anyone have thoughts?
I'm fine selling/liquidating everything and splitting up the profits.
Sorry, no time to update at the moment. Should settle down in a day or two.
no worries thanks for the heads up
Okay, with no comments beyond “sell it all” to the above loot, I did just that except for the stuff marked group loot.
So far, everyone’s split would be 1,154 gold each.
Group Loot will gain the above items + 1,156 gold, 3 silver.
Though, I need values on the Masterwork Harp and the Robe of Vermin...
New Loot:
3 handaxes,
1 masterwork greataxe,
A suit of +1 studded leather armor,
+1 keen spear
Also, after updating the Party Loot, I noticed a couple things:
1) We now have 6 Potions of Cure Moderate Wounds. Do we wanna each take 1 for our personal inventory?
2) We STILL have the Stag Lords helmet and bow in there. Do we wanna keep hanging onto it, or sell it? Save it as a trophy? Someone wanna use either?
Sounds like a good idea on the potions of CMW.
No need for any of the new loot items here, and no opinion on the Stag Lord's stuff.
Robe of vermin is a cursed item and as such is worthless. MW Harp goes for a 100gp.
I could take the helm for the bonus to perception too bad the flat footed ability is for ranged attack, but it is just once a day. But as the trap spotter the +2 is a +2. :)
