Good Luck P33J

Sorry to see you go, Fren. I hope things settle out for you soon.

Fren, I am sorry to see you go as well, and I hope things in real life turn out very good for you.

Sad to hear that Fren, I hope things get better for you soon.

Fren is welcome back when real life settles down. Thanks for being straight up with us, I appreciate it.

I've sent out notices to the short-listed people. If they aren't willing to join now, do you want me to recruit a cleric or just play as is and use the Paladin as your healer when the time comes?

I will GMPC Fren in your upcoming combat vs. Kessel.

Probably going to need a cleric. Really hard to get along without full divine casting.

My preference would be for a cleric, but I won't be too upset if one doesn't appear....we'll just have to deal with it (and order up a Cure Light Wounds wand when we have the cash :) )

So you'll have an Urban Druid who's going to build into a Mystery Cultist or Empyreal worshiper if I remember right, so that would get you some decent divine.

I'm fine with either though I agree a full divine caster would be mighty useful. If there isn't I'm fine.

I'm okay with either ^^

Darvan will volunteer for first watch. He intends to sit about 20ft outside of camp and cover himself with some leaves. He also makes sure that Fren will be awake at all times when Spike Tail is.

Stealth: 1d20 + 8 + 20 ⇒ (13) + 8 + 20 = 41
Perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

+20?? How did you get that? Is there something the slayer gives? I would like to have that stealth bonus....

When you're not moving you get a +20 to stealth.

Edit: I actually just went to double check that, and I'm not so sure it carried over to Pathfinder, I might be wrong on that.

I only found a reference to that but for invisible creatureshere

Yeah, when I played a few years ago it was "if you're not moving at all you get a +20, if you're invisible you get a +20, both of these circumstances stack."

Still, you'd think there is some kind of bonus for not moving.

That sounds like the 3.5 rules. Used to love it for snipers.

-Pops into metaphysical existence in a poof of smoke. Cus. Why not?-

Hello folks. P33J has apparently chosen me to replace the Dwarf Cleric. I'm Jake, I live in the Mid-West, where its currently freezing, occasionally colder than the N and S poles. This'll be one of my first PBPs for Pathfinder, been trying to get into some for a while and at last, being on the shortlist pays off.

Sadly, not quite as useful as a Cleric. I'm fond of Faore, so I'd love to play her, which P33J is fine with, but I can pull out another character if you guys feel it necessary. I try to roll with the flow, unlike Faore~

I've got 2 others joining us as well.

An Urban Druid with some healing and a Divine Hunter who has ranged Lay on hands.

The urban druid would be my PC, based loosely on Yuuka Kazami. Still trying to find just the right avatar picture, though.

And don't worry about lacking support, druids have heals and buffs too.

Eek! Ranged lay on hands! Now my paladin won't be as unique!

Kidding :P

Well, that got us crowded rather quickly. And oh joy, another paladin! >.>

Welcome guys, glad to have some more healers on board. Although looking at the current situation there's a pretty good chance I might go back to the drawing board soon.

Welcome, all

Welcome all. Like Darvan said, I might need to go back to updating my char with 2 paladins. :P

I think the LE Hungry Ghost Monk will have more difficulty than either of you...around about 6th level there's going to be some 'splainin' to do...

Well, I'm always ready to distract a Paladin with some lovely but rustic architecture.

TWO on the otherhand? I might wanna dip into assassin...

More so curious on how you're gonna introduce us folks.

lol Evil? I didn't notice that.

I can see it now...

"Huh. Did you know you're evil? Have you ever tried not being evil? I've got some literature for you on the subject if you're interested..."

And I'm just like "Lol how does this chakram taste?"

Damn, does Darvan do it with style.

"Oh man, I should probably get outta here...but maybe one more."

There will not be a 2nd Paladin, she politely declined. So we stay with 6. No ranged healing :D

Aw! I was hoping they could team up!

Presuming Kern does end up using Enlarge Person (in part for extra damage and reach), at an increased size would he be able to cross the water as part of his normal stride?

Rules say no. Logic says yes. I side with logic. If you use Enlarge, you can cross as a step.

Not to tell the wizard how to do his job, but wouldn't either the fighter or the paladin benefit more from being enlarged?

Enlarge might get him shot at more often since It's a full round action to cast. I'm not doing too well in the shooting department too.

On the bright side, Darvan slew the lady boss. The not so bright side has the others screaming for his blood.

Also is Darvan leading the bandits away from the party by himself into the forest?

I don't want to add getting shot at on top of being outnumbered by melee. I'd rather face three men by myself then face three men and have two archers firing on me.

Makes sense. You are better in melee than I am. Archers would make life difficult.....
1 archer down..

It's a cost-benefit analysis. Kyra is already fighting defensively...enlarge would up her damage (really not needed) but damage her AC.

Brok is currently using a bow, Enlarge Person would have no benefit whatsoever...and Darvan is haring off far across the battlefield.

Kern loses a bit of AC (he's in good shape due to other spells), and gains damage, reach and mobility, all of which will benefit him. At first level, there are limited spell options, so expect to see Kern in melee (or ranged) combat or a regular basis until the BAB discrepancy begins to build up.

Enlarge is a wash on AC, unless you count heavily on DEX. You get a +2 to Natural Armor while taking a -1 from DEX and Size. It's really just +1 Damage and the extra damage die and reach.

Tactically, the bandits may soon have a much bigger problem in the form of a paladin right on top of them...

Also, I am not ignoring that she got hit by arrows ^^ Someone is going to be in a lot of pain once the adrenaline wears off :D

Unless you've houseruled it, the *spell* doesn't actually give you the extra +2 Natural...you only get it as part of creature progression/templates.

Okay, I need to remember to alter those stats underneath my name...

Writing that down for the future.

And, it looks like the bandit boss gets a warning from his people. This could be bad.

You have mounts, they do not, you have survival tracking. Go nuts.

Poor guys... They never stood a chance with Kyra and Darvan around did they?

Don't you mean Kern and Darvan? :P

Nah it's Kyra and Darvan. Both killers. :P
One for Might, the other for Right.

You can make survival checks to find the runners

BTW, I am paying attention, just not posting because Kern's not there. With luck, Kern will have all the loot catalogued (good thing he's an honorable guy) by the time you pick him up.

So...is my PC waiting at the trading post?

Yeah, they'll be there after one quick meeting.

I've been popping in every day, awaiting the chance to trip mobs.
