Kingmaker: Stolen Lands of the Shining

Game Master BloodWolven

I assumed I was under the effects of both.

Suggested to defend and drawn to Selena. Though I guess it was Sulvanii that attacked.

Quince was trying to keep the ladies from fighting I guess.

The guy had a total of 74.5 HP, with the damage already taken you just blew him away! XD

Now you have to attack Sulvanii.

Attacking a conflagration seems unreasonable and harmful.

Unreasonable, no. As he is attacking her and you are under the defend her, so you're going to have to do something against him and trying to pull her from him didn't work so.. attacking would be the next step anyways. Also attacking Sulvanii will not harm you, only him. It would be different if she asked you to punch him, then the fire damage would kick in.

On it.

My problem is it is unclear and I wanted you to do like the following:
STATISTICS
Final, base, wishes, magic item
Str 32, 23, +3, +6
Dex 26, 17, +3, +6
Con 26, 18, +2, +6
Int 20, 12, +2, +6
Wis 22, 14, +2, +6
Cha 26, 17, +3, +6

So you could use 3 wishes to make your STR +3.
So you could use 3 wishes to make your DEX +3.
So you could use 3 wishes to make your CON +3.
So you could use 3 wishes to make your INT +3.
So you could use 3 wishes to make your WIS +3.
Using a total of 15 wishes.

So your stats would look something like this:
Final, base, Racial, wishes, magic item
Str 23, 16, +3, +4
Dex 26, 15, +3, +4
Con 26, 15, +3, +4
Int 20, 14, +3, +0
Wis 22, 13, +3, +0
Cha 26, 16, +3, +0

Though with the lack of information from your race it will take more time! Also why am I doing this for you! What did you do with your rolls? Also you have no notes of where the other bonuses have come from just the F*********** Stat! Yes for the last day everywhere I have turned I have found reasons to explode. I am sorry that you had to see that... you should have seen me storm off and take a quick run away from the computer... Anyways please help me out here!

Original rolls:
15
16
13
16
15
14
Your present stats before more wishes and magical items: Str 21, Dex 18, Con 16, Int 16, Wis 11, Cha 22

----
And once that is done and you don't want to change your other stats, you just make 3 wishes to give your WIS a +3.

So I am trying to go over 7 years of this game. In addition to wishes. We got stat bumps for guessing your gifts for Christmas. As well as a Thanksgiving food bonus.

LOL!!!!!!!!!!

So with all of my google-fu I have learned a few things about Quince.

Whoever is in charge of his profile did not update it well. LOL.

For that I am sorry.

I was able to find original rolls and what I think is all of the bonuses and such that were added of the history of the game. From "Gameplay," "Discussion," & "PMs." Which included random bonuses for Thanksgiving dishes, guessing Christmas gifts & Bearik's Pyramid.

I did have to fix a few things. In both up and down directions. I think the issue was not accounting for Kitsune bonuses and penalties because I had made Quince for a different Kingmaker that I was not chosen for. So when I signed on here. I did a re-roll but my STR was too high and my DEX was too low so I think that was my problem.

So before any new wishes or items my stats laid out in the manner you wanted (Because there are values from even more sources than were listed in Sulvanii's profile I added "Race, Ability Boost, & GM Bonus) is:

STATISTICS
Final, base, Wishes, Magic Item, Race, Ability Boost, GM Bonus
STR 18, 16, +3, +0, -2, +0, +1
DEX 19, 14, +3, +0, +2, +0,+0
CON 16, 13, +1, +0, +0, +1, +1
INT 17, 15, +1, +0, +0, +0, +1
WIS 13, 13, +0, +0, +0, +0, +0
CHA 22, 15, +3, +0, +2, +0, +2

Christmas Guess
+1 to STR
+1 to CON
Thanksgiving Choice
+1 INT
Previous Wishes
+3 to CHA
+3 to STR
+3 to DEX
+1 to CON
+1 to INT
Pyramid Bonus
+2

Now that I know all this. I can burn through a bunch of wishes.

Yup sounds good Quince!!! Thanks for doing that for me!

I'm going to say that you used plane shift?

Oh. Hey I forgot. Cleo, in the course of all the Kingdom Managment/City building stuff. I added Academies to both Tazlford and Ft. Promise as well as libraries. So part of the downtime considerations for Cleo are going to be additional higher learning opportunities.

I am finding the idea of 72 Wishes rather hilariously overwhelming.

Stuff to work on:

Wishes for the Wardens and NPCs
Hunting Parties
What they couldn't handle
Stolenlands - explored (done)
Expansion - (leaving to Quince)
Events for all 12 months... gotta find the list and roll!

Anything I miss?

Please forgive the questions. I can't help myself. I hate screwing things up.

Does Quince have 72 wishes or is it among all of us there are 72 wishes that need to be spread around?

Yup, planeshift. And if that doesn't work, then he will use his infernal pact planeshift. Which if they don't go with him he is replaced by a Devil... A powerful Kyton to be precise.

Quince gets 72 wishes.
Clenora gets 72 wishes.
Elizabeth gets 72 wishes... etc.

72 wishes for a year, 6 each month. Sulvanii will use them if you don't want them... or offer suggestions!

Quince let me help you... post what you have so far!

Alright brace yourself.

73 Wishes (Still had one unused)
As established in gameplay all Stat boost wishes include the "With no detriment to my self or others."

Adding to that all wishes for equipment or items include a similar protective clause. "The creation of The Item In Question that bears no drawback or curse that has had no previous owners."

The unique items have links.

GM Wolf just to keep you posted on my thought process. I am retooling a few things so some of these will change.

I thinking the Shifter's Headband is better than the Alluring CHA headband. I had asked about earlier and then really didn't have a lot of Polymorph effects. But there are a few options so I think it might be better.

I also hated the idea of that many wands so I am switching as much as I can out for Pages of Spell Knowledge.

Well outside of the bond they have I don't know if Elizabeth and Cleonora are actual friends....

Getting Cleo to do double, or well triple dates might be hard if only because she isn't as... open as the rest of you are with affection. She'll get better with time but Jorne is Cleo's first relationship in such way.

Though that doesn't mean that Katrina wouldn't set up to have lunch with both Jorne and Cleo then also set something up with Quince and Liz at the same time. Because that is the kind of person Katrina is! XD

Before the time jump Quince doesn't know Jorne well. Quince will likely get to know Cleo a lot better in the course of study of magic. For one he was always interested in education for the kingdom. Hence in the year of down time an Academy in two more cities is encouraged. Neither I would think has the prestige of the first but they will likely be on the agenda of things to talk about. Also Quince will himself need some help learning (part of the RP of dealing with the fact I have a ton of Pages of Spell Knowledge).

I thought the idea of all of us hanging out would be a natural way for us to get to know each other over that time.

I edited this post.

I had asked a question that is now moot.

Looking good 13 more to go!

For Scram

How about +4 Elven Chainmail barding 21,150 (+4 16,000gp & 5,150gp Base for Elven Chain)

A belt of Giant Strength +4 16,000gp
With healing on it: 1,500 gp

Sure that sounds good. Those are better options.

I thought that animals only have barding and neck slots unless its like Horse Shoes.

I will start updating my sheet.

IDK, I would give them belt as well.

Works for Scram!!!

Depending on your response to my PM that might account for a few of those wishes.

A belt of Giant Strength +4 16,000gp

With healing on it: 1,500 gp.

So this is some kind of regeneration effected added.

Also the way you stacked this.

Is this 2 wishes: 1 for the Belt and a 2nd for the healing effect.

Or is it 1 wish with 2 effects that total 25,000 or less.

If it is the second option I would be a fool not to look over my list and add a lot of secondary effects that add up to 25k for those items that are under the wire.

Sooooooooo

On my list of wishes/purchases were a few presents for friends.

Presents for Cleo.
Blessed Book

Bookplate of Recall

Present for Elizabeth.
Blessed Book

Bookplate of Recall

Ring of Protection +3 18,000gp Wedding Band for Elizabeth. The ring is a band that is engraved with knotwork pattern on either end of the pattern facing each other are the head of a bear and a fox. The bear a symbol of House Medvyed and the Fox with obvious Kitsune connection.

Minor Ring of Spell Storing This ring was made for and given to Elizabeth as an engagement ring. It is a gold ring with a trio of diamonds the center one is larger than the one on either side.

I updated my character sheet.

The healing property gives you 3 charges daily. It also gives you +2 on heal check. You can expend 1 charge for 2d8 healing, 2 charges for 3d8 healing or 3 charges for 4d8 healing.

Yes you can add other effects as Sulvanii would help you with it. But remember the second quality is 50% more.

That's cool. That means I could add that healing bonus to my own belt in the same way.

Stuff to work on:

Expansion - (leaving to Quince)
Events for all 12 months... gotta find the list and roll!

Anything I miss?

Revisiting this list.

The random kingdom events were covered in the month to month breakdowns we did.

I still have a few wishes left and after the suggestions for Scram I am going to revisit some of my less than 25k wishes and see if there is room to make those items a little better.

The spreadsheet work on expansion is done.

That leaves hunting parties/exploration.

As well as things for us to pursue during the downtime. If we have any ideas.

Okay! Now that, that storm is over I can focus on other things... Like 72 wishes...

Also! Thank you for the gifts!

Alright so knowing we have a few threads and directions we are going to go during our "downtime year."

I propose we label the general threads so that we aren't waiting for one to finish before we tackle the next. For instance. Quince has proposed a trip to make good on some promises/visit Tazleford and allies. Let's label that the The Tazlford Tree Tango.
This will keep it separate from any hunting/exploration teams which can get their own labels as they begin.

GM Wolf- Can you refresh me how Sulvanii's lamp works. He has served the kingdom so long I hadn't given his lamp much thought until Katrina reminded me. I had in my head figured that he was autonomous and that I was not his "master." We had counted his labors ended which I thought freed him. Do I need to worry that his lamp might end up in the wrong hands?

So with these loose end events like the Tazlford Tree Tango. Are we playing them out, playing them out partially where we set them up make a few rolls and talk through results, or handwaving them.

If we are fully playing them out. Should we create secondary alises that don't have 72 wishes?

I started this thinking it was a good excuse to rp a little, set some of the tone for the next stretch of time while getting a little feedback.

Just trying to gauge how much we can assume goes off without a hitch. Because I am already working on the next exploration trip "Easter Exploration Extravaganza."

I realize that I thought I asked a question or missed an answer. This will either be hilarious oversite or nothing.

Buuuuuuutttt do we have Tree Feather Tokens. I know they are not expensive. I assume its something that we would have been able to procure before now without having to hold things up.

I assume it is it safe to have the number of tokens that Melianse wanted already on hand?

The feather tokens have not been made or purchased. In the down time before leaving you could get someone to make them otherwise the trip would be moot.

You know most of the encounters you will be doing will be RP. So go ahead and put the wishes on.

Would they be available for purchase. They are 400 retail.

No I thought it would be a hilarious oversight now I just feel stupid.

My mistake I am not understanding how the pace of downtime was going to go.

Okay! Now that, that storm is over I can focus on other things... Like 72 wishes...

Also! Thank you for the gifts!

Your welcome. We are still mid Down-Time but the Bookplate is in the Blessed book so it can be summoned.

I've a question about the wishes! If I wish for a scroll of every enter number of spell level here, would that count as one wish or a wish per scroll?

I am sooo happy right now! I found this post from Nov 10, 2016, 09:52 pm by GM Wolf. The list of items was in a spoiler so I couldn't just quote normal. LOL. But here it is.

The day passes by with plenty to eat, good food, great companionship, and just a great time. There is likely quite a bit of praying between Katina, Kevros, and Quince. Stalker returns with a deer to eat for the rest of the time.

Other notes...:

Items to be split up among the group: (5) goodberries, (2) potions of cure moderate wounds, a scroll of summon nature’s ally II, a wand of cure light wounds (26 charges), and 6 feather tokens (tree).
This grants a +2 bonus to their nation’s Stability. Who is record keeping? The next time you go to Oleg's there is a big surprise waiting for you.

Staying in her glade for over 24 hours grants you resistance fire 5, for a week.

On the new dawn you all appear to be well rested and break camp.

When we helped Tiressia she gave us 6 Feather Tokens (Tree).

Alright after looking over my wishes and taking your advice about stacking enchantments I do have a few tweaks. For approval. The original gp value of the item wished was under 25k and the second effect was 2x the price.

• Ring of Protection +3 18,000gp Wedding Band for Quince. The ring is a band that is engraved with a knotwork pattern on either end of the pattern facing each other are the head of a bear and a fox. The bear a symbol of House Medvyed and the Fox with obvious Kitsune connection. - 7,000gp Remains - Additional Enchantment Feather Falling

• Suzerain Scepter 20,000gp - 5,000 Remains - Additional Enchantment Items like the Rod of Splendor have are also a +1 Mace so I figured that this could function as a +1 Morningstar as well. Which at double the price would be still be under budget.

• Boots of Speed -13,000 Remains - Additional Enchantment Springing & Striding

Deliquescent Gloves Another item popular in the war on trolls. - 17,000 Remains - Additional Enchantment Swimming & Climbing

Good question, I still don't have an answer... looking through old notes and posts...

Looks good Quince!

Now to answer Cleonora's question: it depends on how you wish for it. Should you wish on the safe side like Quince has been doing above then you would wish with for one scroll to be made that has all first level spells for a wizard in the transmutation school. Thus the price of the scroll made would be under 25,000 gp. Now you might/would have to specify spells at higher tiers.

How many feather tokens did you need?

Cool, that helps me greatly!

Melianse wants 5. Tiressia gave us 6 I found the loot drop. Unless we are assuming that we sold them off they have been in our stores.

I would assume we have them in our inventory... at least someone's inventory/bag. So yes, we have them... Onwards to the Tazyleford Tango!!!

As Sulvanii would tell you at your next meeting, "Ah yes the lamp. I am the counselor to the Wardens but as the Wardens have chosen you as the leader, I too have given you more power. You may summon me with it. I don't have to call but it is good to have a connection to you and you to me. I can use it to divine you should the need rise, I could also come unbidden to your side with it. It is a handy item. Though to the other question am I locked to the lamp as the magical item, no. I am free. Free to do what I think is best for this kingdom."

Quince nods, "Forgive my knowledge on this one based on old tales. So no one could take the lamp from me and force you to act . . . in any sort of way. Whether that was a foe of ours or just someone who desired your service. You couldn't be made a slave or kidnapped from us if someone took the lamp?"
