Legends of Katapesh - Legacy of Fire

Game Master justaworm

Probably won't get a chance to post til Sunday...

Hey everyone, I forgot to mention I was out of town this weekend.

Start thinking about your next level ... you know, assuming you live. :)

Thoughts for new spells (I get one 7th and one 6th or lower):
7th: Mage's Sword or Mass Fly
6th: Cold Ice Strike (swift action 30' line attack), chain lightning, acid fog, repulsion or greater dispel magic

Thoughts?

Fly is not that important to Hazreem as he can wild shape if needed. Mage's Sword gets my vote.

That Cold Ice Strike is nice, yet I am leaning towards Gr. Dispel Magic as a better option.

I can fly with my Angelic Aspect spells, so I vote Mage's Sword.

Cold Ice Strike is really effective against all these fire based critters we continue to run into. Of course, Greater Dispel Magic is always a staple but we haven't been running into too many buffed things (However, it does work against spell-like abilities but haven't been subject to too many of those either).

Definitely as dire of a situation as I can recall for you all! It only took you all being nearly completely spent going into a major encounter (and a few mythic levels).

Before we decide to expend that Wish spell, keep in mind Hazreem does have a Heal spell as well.

If we manage to survive this encounter (unlikely since our main damage dealer is down) then we should be able to bring Bahir back to life should he perish here.

Hey everyone, I am out of town through Tuesday.

Terrible week at work. I've basically worked, got home, spent time with kids before bed, slept, and started each day over. We have a big design review with the government coming up next week and hopefully normalcy returns afterwards. I will push as soon as I have a free hour.

Efreat had unlocked this particular weakness but you all didnt catch it back then. :)

So where to rest? Fountain room with Shazz, here, or the garden?

Fountain room I guess.

I think I fixed the Post links in the campaign tab from when I changed the name of the threat.

An impossible eye recap is here
post

LEVEL UP:
80% of d8 HD: 7 hp, +1 for toughness, +2 CON = 152 HP
+1 BAB
+1 to Fort and Will saves
+1 to Wild Shape per day (Huge Elemental unlocked!)
Skills increased: Handle Animal, Heal, Knowledge (Nature), Perception, Survival
+1 to 6th level and 7th level Spells Known.

As for the Loot, I suggest Pae grab the Ring of Protection +3. Not sure what other items should be claimed.

EDIT: He will cast Goodberry to create 2d4 ⇒ (2, 2) = 4 berries

HP: +6 (4 reg +2 con)
BAB+1; Will +1
+1 skills know(arcana), know(planes), fly, sense motive, spellcraft
spells added: mage's sword & cold ice strike

LEVEL UP:

+1 to Wild Shape per day (Huge Elemental unlocked!)

I remember in the old days when polymorph had an HD limit instead of a size limit and I spent nearly all of levels 17+ as a Colossal Red Dragon. I’m sure th GM just loved it.

LEVEL UP:
80% of d10 HD: 8 hp, +1 Con belt, +1 Con, +1 = 174 HP
+1 BAB
+1 to Fort and Will saves
+1 to 4th level spells Known.
+1 to Divine Bond
Aura of Faith
Channel Positive energy and Lay Hands On: +1d6

Skills increased: Diplomacy +1, Knowledge(Religion) +1, and Intimidate +1

Actually, think I'll put all my skill points into Fly skill instead. I'll still be terrible at it but got to start somewhere...

Sounds good, I'm sure there's no way it'll come up again ... :)

So, Camris hasn't checked in a while to either this or the MM game. I may do a "notional" level up for Mah'ysa until Camris does (hopefully) check in again.

Level 13 cleric, level 14 overall looks like involves no actual cleric decisions except spell memorization, so it shouldn't be too bad.

I am also going to ping Camris through PM. We are still waiting on Pae anyway at the moment.

There is no recruitment page. Does anyone have any idea what the character rules were?

I guess for the most part I am interested in stats... 15 pt buy or 20?

----

edit: ahh, there is a lvl 1 Pae hanging around. Looks like the point buy was 20.

Since we aren't too far off Pae's retirement (though Pae will still exist in the story), Sanathoma needs some character creation rules.

Since this started in 3.5e, I don't want to unbalance the party. I am thinking the following

20 pt buy.
Core races.
Level 14.
No gunslingers (bolt ace ok).
Unchained summoner only.
Wealth dependent on party wealth at character creation time.

Sound ok to everyone?

Sure thing GM J. Did we lose Camris permanently?

LEVEL UP:
80% of d8 HD: 7 hp, +1 CON = 123 HP
+1 BAB
+1 to Ref saves
+1 Rogue Talent: Offensive Defense
Skills increased: Acrobatics, Disable Device, Perception, Sense Motive, Stealth, UMD, Escape Artist +3, Bluff, Knowledge(local)

Pae will happily grab the Ring of Protection +3, trading out his +1.

Sure thing GM J. Did we lose Camris permanently?

I hope not. But Camris hasn't posted in a while now under either game.

Here's what we will use if we need to continue on as a NPC for now. Mah'ysa can override anything when she returns.

We are likely a few days away from needing stats anyway and hopefully Mah pops back in by then.

It looks like Mah'ysa's player has dropped from this game, plus the MM game as well. Should we recruit a replacement player or just NPC Mah'ysa for the time being?

I think we will just npc Mah'ysa for now. You guys are thiiiissss close to the end of the book and then there will be some churn in shopping and setting up the next book. That will give ample time for Camris to possibly show back up again.

If that doesn't happen when we are ready to proceed, there are some options. I think Mah'ysa's character will just become an NPC in the story and not travel with the party. That leaves the option for Camris to come back in one day.

Sanathoma is going to make a new character and if he would rather make a replacement healer that would work. We could decide to move on with 4 or recruit a 5th. I am fine either way. I am sure we wouldn't have trouble finding someone to jump in for the final book of an AP.

I meant to just have you find the cleric's body the next time you went through the treasury room, but I forgot. So I hope you forgive the Dues Ex Shazzathared. :)

Mah'ysa, level 14 skills:
+1 Acrobatics,
+1 K(Religion)
+1 Perform(Sing)
+1 Spellcraft

Will have Mah'ysa's character sheet posted in our google drive area sometime soon.

Here is what I have for armor, initiatives, perception and saves.

Let me know what needs to be updated from your level up...

Mah'ysa- Curr: 23/T17/F18; 24/T18/F18 (haste); 23/T17/F18 (base); 27/T21/F18 (tot def);
Bahir- Curr: 29/T12/F28 (base); 36/T19/F34 (haste, smite); 31/14/27 (defensive, enlarged, haste); 29/12/27 (enlarged, haste); 30/T13/F28 (haste); 29/T12/F28 (base); 35/T18/F34 (smite); GAA: (+4 / +3) saves

Paellat- Curr: 22/T17/F17 (base, +4 vs traps) ; 21/T17/F17 (no ring); 22/T18/F17 (no ring, haste); 23/18/17 (haste); 22/T17/F17 (base, +4 vs traps)

Hazreem's AC increases by one as he swapped out his +2 ring of Protection for a +3 ring.
Perception is +23.
Will is +18.
Note the additional changes for being a Huge Elemental.

Efreat should be
AC base 18(15/15)
/w mage armor AC 20/t15/f17
/w mage armor & haste AC 21/t16/f17
/w mage armor, shield & haste AC 25/t16/f21

I am not really interested in open recruitment, but any of the 3 players that had been recently added to Camris' Mummy's Mask game would certainly do well. Bahir and Efreat (who interacted with the), and Hazreem and Pae, what do you think?

I have no problem with your player suggestions GM J.

that would probably work.

Fine by me

Ok, I will see if any are interested.

Sorry everyone, had a crazy 2 weeks. I will get it moving again here soon.

Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

I am in business travel/vacation for the next week. I’ll keep up as I can, though the Disney days are likely out, hah! Keep the exploration coming though ... getting close.

Well Hazreem, Pae, it looks like we aren't going to hear from Bahir and Efreat. I wouldn't want to just push through this final stage of the book with 3 NPCs and this is a pretty good stopping point if this gets picked back up again. Additionally, I am struggling to find any free time to make posts happen (more of a problem with my other game).

I will leave the Campaign active and maybe the stars will align in the future to finish it out.

I was going to post about this, but RL issues have interfered for me. I think now would be a good stopping point for this game as well.

I would prefer if you did mark this game as Inactive, but unfortunately Paizo has a bug currently where you cannot Edit a Campaign to mark as Inactive. They should have the bug fixed some time before Thanksgiving though.

Ahh, that makes sense as I cannot edit the Campaign tab information in either of these games as well.

It is a shame because we are so close to the end of the book, finally. We could easily reboot this thing with a mostly new cast, even if we just get through the end of this book in story mode to retain continuity.

Still around. Just haven't been checking as often because haven't seen much activity.

Just FYI, they did fix that bug where you couldn't Edit a Campaign, so you should be able to mark this as Inactive now.

Hi all,

I know this has been marked inactive now but hope you will see this. I had a flood that took out my home office (and thus my ability to post here easily) and caused me to have to renovate 75% of my house. On top of the hardest semester of college, trips, and other personal issues I fell off the face of the internet. I am now set all back up (as of last night), my next semester will be relatively tame, and not going anywhere. So both able and willing to come back and give this the attention it deserves. Just throwing that out there if there is still interest.

Bahir

I'm still here if everyone else wanted tot proceed.

I certainly don't mind picking things back up if the interest is still there. The rest of January will definitely be slow for me due to work circumstances.

I think I would like to see this game through but I hope we can get a fourth player to join up. Right now only Bahir, Efreat and Hazreem are definite to pick this up again. I would recommend we get a fourth to play Mah'ysa/Pae until we escape the Palace.

What if we split them up between us?

Well that could work during combat scenes I suppose.
