I guess it comes down to which of us expects to be the frontliner!

Arani Thorindal |

¿Por qué no los dos?
And if needed I can step up into melee. In fact now that I have Point Blank Master I can Legolas it up and use the bow in melee.
So I recommend we keep:
6 wands of hold person (9 charges each) (usable by Jessi and Falina)
5 potions of invisibility
potion of cure light wounds
potion of cure moderate wounds
potion of bear's endurance
2 potions of shield of faith +2 (1 to each of our frontliners)
The boys can settle the armor/defensive items between them.
Sell everything else.

Falina |

The cloak of resistance would be useful for me as well as would the ring of prot (though it would better served if a more front line character took it).
I could certainly handle one of the wands of Hold Person.

T'chazzar |

Ok, so, everyone wants the ring. :)

Arani Thorindal |

Lol. I don't

Arani Thorindal |

Okay, let's just settle this.
T'chazzar take the ring and the chain shirt. Boost AC and frontline capacity.
Caladriel, I'm pretty sure we'll have enough gold pretty soon for you to go with your armor idea (which is crazy affordable for the boost to AC) and probably enchant as well.
Falina take the cloak, you have the weakest saves. And definitely grab a couple of the wands (they only have 9 charges each)

Arani Thorindal |

That leaves the following to be liquidated:
LOOT LIST – LUCKY BONES thru RETURN TO LUCKY BONES (5/4/22)
scroll of glyph of warding (sell value 287.5 gp)
+1 buckler (sell value 577.5 gp)
slippers of spider climbing (sell value 2,400 gp)
7 masterwork nets (160 gp ea. -- total 1,120 gp)
masterwork sickle (153 gp)
dagger (1 gp)
masterwork thieves’ tools (50 gp)
facemask worth 500 gp
gold unholy symbol of Mahathallah (worth 100 gp)
a silver bracelet inset with small pearls (worth 250 gp)
cursed Urgathoan unholy symbol (reward – 1,250 gp)
500 pp (partial reward for turning over Varl Wex’s intelligent kukri; 600 pp more still due)
906 gp in various coins and small gems
Although given that someone's been here since we have, Glyph of Warding might be a good thing to hold on to for our new lair.

Caldariel |

288 + 577 + 2400 + 1120 + 153 + 1 + 50 + 500 + 100 + 250 + 1250 + 500 + 5000 + 906 = 13095
600 pp still due to us
3273.75 each. If the amount due is made then extra 1500 each for 4773.75
Will the 600pp be paid to us?
GM, are you alright with purchasing Ioun stones and wayfinders It’s a cheap way to roll on a table

Let's say that the Church of Abadar indeed recently came through with the additional 600 pp for turning in Varl Wex's evil intelligent kukri; it's probably best for folks to update equipment at the same time they level up.
I'm not sure I understand the second bit (my brain may not be fully functional yet--first thing in the AM and no coffee yet). Wayfinders are generally associated with the Pathfinder Society, though, (and there's no PF lodge in the city IIRC) so those should be hard to come by.
There's also the idea of the Traders teams in the Silver Ravens Organization system. With the city on lockdown, I like the idea of stuff being harder to come by, and the Trader teams offer ways to bypass that problem. Of course, going this route would mean that I'd actually have to get that system back up and running again. I'll try to make some time this weekend to work on doing that.

Thank you Arani for the offer on the 300 gold. But as we are getting paid, it wouldn't be fair for you to cover it.
As for the wayfinder, I've had some GMs who say that it's just a magic item like any other which can be bought. Others who say that it's a pathfinder only item. I figured that I'd get your opinion. Personally, I just like having a cheap way to roll on a table to see what it will do. :)
Gold: 4773 + 25 - 300 = 4498
+1 Darkleaf cloth lamellar leather with armored kilt (1830)
+1 Ring of Protection (See? I still got one afterall!) (2000)
Gold Left: 4498 - 1380 - 2000 = 1118
GM, do you approve of these purchases? I'm not sure what the Trader Teams entails.
If approved, AC goes from 19->22. But it will hopefully keep him safer when fighting. Will save up for an amulet of natural armor +1. And next level Caldariel will get armor of the pit. Throw in the amulet, and at lvl7 he will be at AC25. Not truly tanky, but for someone in light armor with a buckler, it's not bad.

Falina |

So you all know I will be out of town on June 8th through the 12th for Origins in Ohio. I will be effectively unable to post during that time.

GM Silversong |

OK...gonna bump us forward a few days in-game.
Where do you want to pick up exploration of the Lucky Bones? The halfling ghost? The addict spirits? The (allegedly) trapped pit?
And sorry (again) for an unexpected delay.
@T'chazzar: You just wanted one of your short swords to get a +1 enchantment added, correct?

T'chazzar |

Yeah, that's all that I can afford.

Arani Thorindal |

I'm thinking we'd handle them in the order we encountered them before, starting with the gambling ghost.

GM Silversong |

Only a month-and-a-half late on this.... @Caldariel: Purchases approved!

Falina |

I will be out of town Aug 3-7 at Gencon and won't be able to post much/at all during that time.

GM Silversong |

Are folks still interested in continuing this game?

T'chazzar |

I'm still here! I was one of the most recent posters! :D

Arani Thorindal |

Yup we're waiting on Caladriel and your post for Jessibel to finish the round other than the enemies.

GM Silversong |
1 person marked this as a favorite. |

OK, let's give this one more try.
I'm hoping to post either later today or tomorrow to get the ball rolling again. If I let things slide, though, my Thursday and Friday this week are unusually busy so things might slide a bit farther.

GM Silversong |

If it's DR 5, that gets 10 points through. If it's DR 10 due to being advanced, that's at least 5 points.

GM Silversong |

This might be a good time to distribute and/or sell treasure; I believe I've done a good job of maintaining the Loot List on the Campaign Info page. Then use some of the proceeds to buy stuff that'll help the party function underwater.
Once you meet with Octavio Sabinus again, he'll suggest maybe visiting the priests at the seaside Shrine of Saint Senex, since they likely use such magic to recover the bodies of the drowned sailors they recover.

GM Silversong |

I've added gp values (full/sell) to the magic items on the Loot List; now you folks just need to let me know if anyone wants to claim anything or if you'd rather sell it all.
We can assume that the party makes use of one of its rebellion teams to return to the Shrine of Saint Senex to borrow the wand of water breathing from the attendants there.

Arani Thorindal |

Thanks. Been a bit preoccupied making preparations for my son having knee surgery this week. Will post soon

GM Silversong |

Sorry for the extended silence; it was in part due to waiting for some responses from players and in part due to my own loss of focus. I'll be pushing us forward shortly.
Maybe folks haven't yet given a lot of thought yet to underwater adventuring. You've got half the problems solved with water breathing, but there are other considerations, the two biggest being combat and movement. Here's a link to the Archives of Nethys Basic Underwater Rules Page.
Here are some quick takeaways: Piercing weapons are preferable; a swim speed is nice; freedom of movement would be awesome.

GM Silversong |

Just a quick check to make sure I'm using the right Swim modifiers for the exploration of the flooded tunnels. I have the following:
ARANI +6
CALDARIEL +4
T'CHAZZAR +1 (-1 ACP from chain shirt not on character sheet?)
FALINA +1
Let me know if you feel these are incorrect.

T'chazzar |

The ACP is included in the skill listing:
Swim +2 [+1] (1 rank, +1 Str)So his normal bonus is +2 but with the chain shirt it's +1.

Arani Thorindal |

All good

GM Silversong |

Last call to T'CHAZZAR for actions before I bot him again.

Happy New Year!
Game restart scheduled for tomorrow!

Arani Thorindal |

Was looking at my status bar, and trying to figure out where I got injured (it's been a while since I took damage), but either way, I'd have definitely healed myself when I healed T'chazzar.
CSW: 3d8 + 5 ⇒ (3, 2, 7) + 5 = 17

GM Silversong |

Save the charge from the wand: only T'chazzar (-2 hp) had any lingering wounds at the start of this fight. I think Jessibel may have healed Arani after the first fight.
Arani effortlessly avoids the worst of the lightning bolt....
Does Arani have some special ability that I missed or forgot about...or did you maybe think you'd rolled a successful save vs. the lightning bolt? In case it was the latter, I rolled a save in my latest post and she saved for half damage. Since I forgot about both T'chazzar's SR and Jessibel's evasion, I'm a bit paranoid about a faulty memory at the moment.

Arani Thorindal |

I'd originally rolled for the save, and copies the post when I noticed the stat bar with the ho discrepancy. When I copies and pasted it it became a mess apparently. So it would be just one shot and I take half damage.

GM Silversong |

After this fight, I believe I'll have Jessibel suggest exiting the flooded tunnels so the party can get some sort of magic that allows them to swim. I had a brain fart back before the party entered the flooded chambers, wrongly believing that touch of the sea had a range of 'personal' and couldn't be made into potions or wands. (Maybe I was thinking of alter self?)
In my defense, no one else came up with a workable solution either, but I think it's become clear this whole 'slog along the bottom' bit isn't working well.

Falina |

So everyone is aware I have been having PC troubles since Wednesday last week and am still in the process of getting it all worked out so my posting will likely be more sporadic than usual lately until it is resolved..

GM Silversong |

Good luck with the fix. I'll keep botting Falina (though I'll probably expend some of her resources in the hopes of ending this fight soonish).

T'chazzar |

My computer broke and I'm told that the replacement I was supposed to get today may not show up until next week. Please bot as needed.

Falina |

Still fighting with the new computer but I have given up. They thought it was the hard drive but the new one didn't fix it. I'm getting a replacement computer now but am back on my old one for the time being. Sadly I lost most everything I had because I did not leave it on the external hard drive when I moved it over. Highly aggravated about that fact...

Arani Thorindal |

So we should definitely sell the following:
2 elaborately decorated hookahs {600 gp total}
a bejeweled silver ring worth 1,500 gp
a Small suit of +2 shadow leather armor {7,750/3,875}
Jewelry worth 2,400 gp. (Room C12)
Jewelry worth 3,300 gp. (Room C14)
gold and silver jewelry (value 3,000 gp)
I think Jessi having the Circlet of Persuasion definitely benefits us all (more rounds of bardic music/ more spells/ longer buff durations etc)
I could definitely make use of the Vest of Escape (boosting both Disable Device and Escape artist)
Tchazzar, the short sword's already yours I believe.
Anything else on the list anyone want or should we sell the rest?

T'chazzar |

I think Jessi having the Circlet of Persuasion definitely benefits us all (more rounds of bardic music/ more spells/ longer buff durations etc)
Note that a circlet of persuasion grants a competence bonus on Charisma checks, not an increase to Charisma, so it doesn't affect her amount of bardic inspiration or number of spells.

Arani Thorindal |

Hmm I think I had that mixed up with a Headband of Alluring Charisma

GM Silversong |

Sorry for the silence/hiatus. I'm gonna consider that a sort of 'spring break' for myself. Hopefully, Falina's and T'chazzar's players have gotten their computer issues straightened out fully by now.

T'chazzar |

I have a temporary computer.

GM Silversong |

Oops--I messed up. I added a treasure trove to the Loot List that you hadn't quite acquired yet...stuff from the room with the halfling ghost that messed up Jessibel a bit and wanted part of your living spirits if you lost a bet against it. I crossed that temporarily off the treasure list; doing so removes the circlet of persuasion from play for the time being.

Arani Thorindal |

Fair enough. lol

Falina |

Yeah, I have a replacement computer now, just got it this week and have been getting everything set up again.
The circlet would be useful for both Jess and Fallina since it does apply to concentration checks for us since those are charisma based checks.
I don't really see anything in particular I needs from that list.
