The Carrion golem has AC 17 (T 11, FF 16)
I forget, five foot step doesn't exist in Revised Action Economy right?
It does, it's a "step" action; you can take more than one a turn.
So... I've heard nothing back from Gehenna; and her player isn't active in any other games on this board. Which is a shame, I'm sorry if we've lost her - she was a great character.
I suggest we run without her for the moment (Carrion golems are immune to magic anyways), but if she hasn't reappeared after Easter (say by Tuesday 29 March) then I'll start looking for a replacement; and possibly a replacement for Vaenathis, although I'm open to your thoughts on both counts.
I can ask around in some of my other games if anyone wants in, it'd be easier than waiting for a recruitment.
Yeah, maybe we can look for a replacement anyway and if Gehenna comes back we'll be back to 5, and if she doesn't then we'll still be at 4.
Agreed, Gehenna is a great character. Hope she's back.
If not, at least one new player would be good. Are you concerned with roles, DMU? Our lack of healing could be an issue. Juliet could also start MCing bard or mesmerist to help with that if need be, I'd like to get at least 3 levels into swash to take advantage of that sweet bonus to damage.
I can pick up a wand of infernal healing and be a healer!
Also, I'm pretty salty with Mr. Eidolon right now. I'm considering putting him back in the boneyard for a while.
Evelyn - he's done a good job right now, though.
Juliet - I can sort healing issues etc, either with new player or with magic items; pick the character class you want to play.
Happy Easter everyone. I guess we could bot Gehenna to be a healer for the next little while maybe?
^ Sounds good to me! Evelyn's roughed up a bit.
*whimper*
Then again Gehenna isn't built as a healer and Lorick has no CLW potions left :(
Chill - you'll be fine. Once Paizo actually stabilises long enough for me to post, that is...
Grrr. This is getting ridiculous.
Ok, I'm treating Gehenna as officially gone now.
Two of the players in the other game I'm running applied to this one but didn't get in; I'm planning to offer them first dibs on a spot before I cast the net more widely.
Sounds good. Do you think it's best for them to be in this dungeon or back at the fort after we're done?
I'll bring them in separately - let's get this finished first.
Heh. Typical Juliet. Only 2 actions in a surprise round, though.

That's right, thanks for the reminder.
Yeah, I wrestled with whether she'd do the smart thing and decided, NOPE!
EDIT: I'll go ahead and spend those stamina points on the parry & riposte then.
Ooops, forgot the healing. Retcon ho!
The thing has AC 20 (Touch 11, FF 19) - masses of natural armour.
Just FYI, I've updated the NPC and PC listing in the Campaign tab to include all the NPCs met thus far. If anything's off, let me know.
Does anyone have an accurate idea of how much loot you've all received? I've lost track.
From the drug den:
-2 light crossbows
-17 crossbow bolts
-8 daggers
-8 short swords
-198 gp
-1 gold ring (worth around 50 gp/25 gp sell price)
-1 silver earring (worth around 20 gp/10 gp sell price)
-1 brooch (Jewel of Great Worth, 1000 gp/500 gp sell price, PLOT ITEM)
-2 flasks of alchemist's fire
-gold ring (worth 25 gp/12.5 gp sell price)
-1 potions Cure Light Wounds
-1 potions Cure Light Wounds (LORICK USED)
-1 potion of Invisibility
-1 potion of Bull's Strength (LORICK)
From Kroft/Vancaskerkin:
LOOT: The night's assorted takings (including Kroft's reward) comes to 2150 gp, which is 430 gp each - assuming that you don't have an attack of conscience and give the gems away to the nearest orphanage...
From Queenie:
With a gesture, the Queen directs Sabina Merrin to hand over the reward for returning the brooch — the bodyguard swiftly does so, handing the small silver chest (itself worth 50 gp) to you. Inside the red-velvet-lined interior rest 12 gold ingots imprinted with the royal seal of Korvosa — each bar is worth 100 gp.
-----------------
I think that is it?
Thanks Juliet, much appreciated.
BTW, my house rule (which I'm convinced is based on the way it used to be played, although I've no idea which edition) is that the value I give you is the sale value; so a 50 gp brooch is worth 50 gp to you, not 25 gp.
Incidentally, you handed the jewel of great worth back to Her Majesty.
So by my reckoning you have 3,693 of gold, jewels and suchlike, plus a few weapons and potions; divide that up between 5 of you and it comes to 738.6 gp each.
Just wanted to make sure that the new arrivals get the same.

Cool, good to know! I'll remember that for the future.
Blurbers is turning out to be a tough little bastard.
Well done those of you who are left; in the morning you will wake to find yourselves at Level 3!
Dingdingding - don't forget that Automatic Bonus Progression now kicks in.

Noice! This is the level where Swash starts to kick into gear.
Out of time this morning - I'll get a post up later but I've got think about how Juliet would respond to Vaen's death for a bit, now that she's out of immediate danger. Just not sure what the appropriate level of inappropriate is (i.e., the Juliet level).
So, Evelyn, you want the bone wand?
DMD, are Tyrion and/or Adhan coming on board?

Still working out final concepts. I'll keep you posted.
Not counting the new arrivals, pretty sure I'm the only one that can use it. Forgive me if I don't post for a bit, working out what I'm doing with my character.
OK, level up:
+8 hp
+1 BAB
+1 fort, +1 will, +1 resistance (ABP)
8 skills (4 class, 2 background, 1 int, 1 human)
- acrobatics, bluff, diplomacy, escape artist, intimidate, knowledge (local), perception, perform (sing)
favored class: swash (+1/4 stamina point)
Deeds:
- Kip Up (stand up from prone)
- Menacing Swordplay (swift action intimidate)
- Precise Strike (+ level to damage)
- Swashbuckler Initiative (+2 init)
Nimble (+1 dodge to AC)
Feat:
- probably dirty fighter, iron will, or extra panache, not decided yet
Alright Evelyn is all rebuilt and updated.
Shall we add Rolfe to the "enemy" list?
It's "Rolth" - I've already put him on the NPC list in the Campaign tab.
He's also CR 9; when I said SOP for the Korvosan Guard when they encounter him was to run like hell and seek backup, I wasn't kidding.

This would be way more exciting if I hadn't levelled Lorick up THREE MONTHS AGO :p
+10 HP, +1 BAB, +1 to Will (lol), Get my Ki pool (woo) but only 2 points of it as Lorick's Will is pretty low :(. Maybe I built Lorick sub optimally :(.
Oh wait no I didn't. VMC Barbarian feature kicking into gear. 6 rounds of Rage. Har!
Kinda excited for this level.
I'm going to be using the 'unchained' version of rage. I think that makes the most sense.
When would the new players be introduced? Also. Hello New Players!
Apologies for slow posting; I've had a promotion at work, which means I'm considerably busier than I was 12 months ago.
I'm not going anywhere and I'm still committed to running this game, but for the moment at least, this slow posting rate is the new normal.
I've been away with work, but am back now and will have something up tomorrow.
New players are currently finalising stuff and will be introduced soon. Just don't ask me what 'soon' is...
Congrats on the promotion!
Congrats, DMU! Slow posting is better than no posting. Juliet's misadventures must continue! She's gotten rather fond of Lorick and the Kid (and the DM ain't half bad either).
DMU, is the 1000 gold we got from Kroft split:
1) 3 ways (Lorick, Evelyn, & Juliet)
or
2) 4 ways (L, E, J, & Gehenna)?
From the narrative, it appears to be #1, but I wanted to be sure before updating the character sheet.
3 ways. Plus anything you want to give to Alina, to make up for, you know, depriving her of her son[/guilt trip]...
Ah yeah, Juliet did say something about making things right, iirc.
Damnit!
What do you all think? Is 1/4 share a good guilt payment?
Lorick thinks the Field Marshal can be convinced to get Alina a bereavement pension just like any other Guard who died on duty. If course it might require some sweet talking...
So yeah for the week off, Lorick will first want to meet with Lamm, then the Field marshall to try and sweet talk Vanen's ma a bereavement pension and then just retrieve what little he has at his hovel and chill at Sia's pad.
OK - so you're going straight to Lamm's? You're not going to Alina to tell her about Vaenathis?
Just want to get it clear in my mind what you're doing and in what order.
Hmmm, maybe we should break the news about Vaen first? If Lamm sidetracks us, Alina could be delayed knowing about her kid, and that would be cruel.
Alright Alina first sounds good.
On a related note it's impossible to not get spoiled on paizo APs. Was looking up some info on the Gray District and what do you know... Spoiled.
Right, well at least after that, a trip to see Lamm can't go any worse...
Right?
I think Lamm himself would have run from that scene.
He would have just thrown Anevia to his pet to just not have to think about it anymore. It's simple when you're a crime boss.
