Lost Lands Campaign (Inactive)

Game Master brvheart

Actually, someone check my math, but I think we have exactly 2000 xp, so we should ding second level now.

That is what I have also Hagrym, all but Shandar who missed a fight or two. ding. Roll some hit points!

Hit Point roll: 1d10 ⇒ 2

Ugh!

Added 13 HP (8 rolled, 4 Con, and 1 FC)
+1 BAB
+1 Fort and Will
Skills: Heal and Know. religion
Lay on Hands: not actually accessible yet, due to Cha penalty
Heartstone: +1 NA and DR1/Adamantine. Replaces Divine Grace.

hit point roll: 1d8 ⇒ 4

so six after con. and FC, I can live with that.

Go ahead and reroll Hagrym. You will need the HP.

Reroll HP 1d10 ⇒ 2

It is meant to be.

Reroll again, if allowed on a two.

1d10 ⇒ 8

take the 8. If this were level four I would make you take the 2, but not at level 2.

That's fine DM. I listed the level two bumps I recieved in my next to last post.

Cool, you can make a knowledge (religion) in game play then:)

From here it is up to the party to decide how to proceed. Even broken such an old holy relic would command a high price in Bard's Gate, or they could decide to pursue the necromancer and whatever was released from the tomb. Options for adventure here are broad and wide starting in Bard's Gate. As I said, this is sandbox so it is up to the players where they wish to go.

I would love to pursue the Necromancer, but unless Naomi nails a couple of saves it could end here for her.

Also, are there any knowledge checks that she should take that no one else has covered? She has seven skill points to use and nothing is super pressing, so any recommendation of Knowledge?

I'd be sure she has a point in everything except religion, just so we can be sure to have at least a class bonus modifier to every roll.

After you get all of them covered, then you can start to specialize in whatever weakness we have, IMHO.

Before you leave the place then you might want to get the rest of inscriptions on the doors.

Naomi, Almery will help with your Fort Save. It is only a DC of 13 and you are getting a +4. If you fail it is only a d3 of Con. What are your mercies Hagrym? Nevermind, you don't get mercy until 3rd and remove disease as a possibility until 6th.

Stonelord loses its mercies for something else too, DM.

Yeah, I suppose we should get all the inscriptions written down. Those are probably important with the construction or repair of the scepter.

We can stay for one more day, and clear out the above rooms, but I'm worried about Naomi.

We should probably make sure things are cleared out first.

Then go to Bard's gate with the relics and stuff; in pursuit of cash! Amongst other things.

Ghoul Fever: Bite—injury; save Fort DC 13; onset 1 day; frequency 1/day; effect 1d3 Con and 1d3 Dex damage; cure 2 consecutive saves. The save DC is Charisma-based.

Ok Naomi 2.0 is ready, I feel a little guilty that she doesn’t have bardic knowledge so I looked at the groups knowledge skills and tried to round it out a little. Brv if that is too much metagaming let me know and I will change it.

Some round numbers on leaving for Bard’s Gate, its one hundred miles away, those with 20 ft movement travel at 16 miles a day, without forced march, those with 30 ft at 24 miles a day. So Naomi reaches Bard’s Gate in five days, late morning. So she needs five days to get there and get well.

The cure is 2 consecutive rolls so even if she saves the first day she still takes the damage to Con and Dex. Worst case scenario she rolls three’s on the Con and she is dead on the road in four days.

Ok, if she makes the save in the morning she will stay one day, if she fails she’s headed to Bard’s Gate, alone or with company. If she stays one day the next morning she will make a roll, if she succeeds it’s all good, if she fails she needs to head to bard’s Gate. Unless there is someone or someplace closer.

Sorry for slowness. Sick wife and baby means no time for fun. I will level and catch up tonight when things are less crazy.

The Tradeway between Freegate and Bard's Gate is fairly well maintained so you will make a little better time, at most four days to Bard's Gate. Let's get the game rolling so we can get to that save roll. I am betting you made it.

Moved this over here so, lets let Cyrus post before we leave the crypt, he may want to say or do something. We still need to use the wand to heal everyone, whether we role play that or just roll it is up to him. Then we gather the palanquin, get everything we find, get all the info off of the doors and report back to the priest Almery, role-play that and go to bed.

If we need to do something else somebody jump in!

Oh, maybe check and see if out prisoner actually took the oxen and horse to the village like he was instructed ;b

I thought we just hand-waved a couple of you taking the prisoner back to the village or am I wrong? Ok, will wait on Cyrus and anyone else that wishes to add. The horse would also aid in Naomi getting to Bard's Gate if necessary.

yeah, I didn't remember how we handled all that, but your right the horse will speed up the process, if we need to.

You can also add touch of good for another +1 to your save from Almery.

Hi! Wasn't quite paying attention to levelling up. I've been a bit stunned with a really persistent cold.

Here's the new HP for level 2 for Turvijagal:
level 2 hp: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

Pretty average. Will also take +1 to HP for levelling up, instead of +1 skill or FCB. So, the basic bits for Turvijagal at level 2 are:

HP 16 | BAB +1 | FORT +1 | REF +8 | WILL 0 |
gets Evasion (woo!)
takes the Offensive Defence as his level two rogue talent

I'll sort out the rest and add it two his profile sometime today.

is it a save based on constitution or Charisma? Or do I have the wrong Ghoul Fever?

Know the feeling Turvijagal, been fighting a nasty cold all week:( The CHA based is how the DC is based on the creature meaning the ghoul as undead have no CON so their saves and HP are based on CHA. Fort Saves are based on CON. So if you up your CON you up your Fort Save:) With your +1 you will be getting +4 from the heal check, +2 from bears endurance and +1 for the touch of good, meaning you will need to roll a 5:)

@ brvheart:

It's not the most wretched cold I've ever had. But it is persistent!

I've got Turvijagal v 2.0 done up too, if you wanted to check the profile to make sure my maths aren't off. Didn't take me as long as I thought it might.

Thanks!

A quick perusal looks ok:)

Biggest issue I see for the party getting to Bard's Gate is a few of you have no rations. It is going to get quite lean! Does everyone even have a waterskin? You need 1 gallon of water per person/day and 2 pounds of food.

I have rations and a water skin. But, is it possible that we could trade some of the items we won to the villagers for more potatoes and water? I'd bet they could use some of the items, and sell them for more gold than the vegetables would cost them.

That way both of us would prosper.

After that, I agree with Naomi's proposed plan posted 2 hours and eleven minutes ago.

Ok, Turvijagal, your issues as I see it are not with armor check penalties but weight. You are just a tad over showing medium encumbrance which is a -3 on those checks. Dropping below 58 lbs and you are ok.

Been out of action all weekend. Sorry. Getting the house ready to sell, getting ready to move to across the pond to Copenhagen, and wife just broke her foot. Oi. Should be able to catch up tomorrow.

Not a problem Galerio:) Catch up when you have a chance. International move for you?

@brvheart. I'll just set aside the sling bullets, then. That drops 5 pounds and puts me at 57 pounds of gear.

Easy. Easy-Peasy!

Oh, yeah, I'll hang on to that masterwork short sword in favor of the one I started with, since it improves my chances to hit.

Updates for Cyrus

hp: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2 if reroll allowed hp: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
Here is hoping, as 5 is much better than 2.

Skills: 1 {racial} + 1 {FCB} + 4 {Class} = 6
+1 Heal
+1 Know (Religion)
+1 Sense Motive
+1 Spellcraft
+1 Knowledge (Arcana)
+1 Perception

Spells: 4/(2+1)+1

BAB: +1
+1 to Fort/Will saves

Edit: Updated his spells and will be incorporating his new "knowledge" in future posts. To reflect the gods dumping an encyclopedia into his brain, I broadened his skill reflection to match.

Also create water is an orison for Cyrus, so we will always have fresh water as long as he is able to cast. All we really need are a few loaves of dwarvish bread and we will be good to go on rations.

Indeed. Moving the family to Denmark for wife's new job. Excited and scared at the same time. Don't speak a lick of Danish and it appears to be one of the most difficult languages to learn out there (no Rosetta Stone to help either). At least most there speak really good English and we will endeavor to learn Danish as best as possible.

I know a little german so I can pick out a word or two here and there, but it is quite different! Best of luck on the move:) or Held og lykke på farten (The wonders of Google translate. It might be your best friend for awhile!)

Danish is not half bad. Try hungarian. Gave me major headache.
Well I am German, so it is also a germanic language, but still.

I used to drive a taxi owned by a guy from Hungary.

He taught me some really useful things to say in Magyar. All very rude things, of course! The first things you learn in any language! :D

BTW Lucky, what kind of cleric are you? Clerics usually just get 2 skillpoints per level?

BTW Lucky, what kind of cleric are you? Clerics usually just get 2 skillpoints per level?

Humans get +1 skill each level, then +1 skill for FCB, then 2 for class and then 2 for Int bonus, so he gets 6 skills per level after all is said and done.

No prob, was just wondering because you said 4 class.

While not as skill heavy as Naomi, I was trying to make sure Cyrus could help out somehow since he isn't a martial cleric build. His first wave of stats were designated for his prior gambler life, but barring us returning to a poker heavy side quest, this will be more of a standard skill dump for him. :)

Well there were no cards, but the thugs did have dice if Lucky wants to start a dice game after hours!

FYI Jarvis, unless I am just missing it I don't see your alignment on your character.

Hate it when the server goes down all night. Shandar checked in via voice while it was down.

I allow rerolls of 1's on HP.

Sorry it is now applied to the profile. I got a 2hp... if you pity a poor 3/4 bab soul...

And post 1K.

Yes I saw that. We are really rolling along here!
