Mazra’s Rise of the Runelords Campaign (Inactive)

Game Master Mazra

It is easy to accidentally shift the map. Should this happen while anyone is in it, the easy way to correct this is to hit the back button; otherwise we will need to re-position tokens on the map.

EDIT: The map is corrected for the most part.

This fight is definately not going the same way as the one upstairs.
By this time in the one upstairs, we had 6 down goblins. now we don't have 1. :(

The RNG has it out for us.
:)

RNG has not been good for sure.

I will wait until tomorrow morning for Garrath, at which time I will GM PC for him to move play forward. Again I understand busy weekends. I have a busy week ahead myself.

Mazra, did you get the email with the .por file for Garrath? Lucerne hammer is in there, and I'll add it to the statblock too.

Yeah, I received it. Unfortunately I am at a conference; and the Herolab is on my PC at home, so I did not have it handy. But I think I calculated right. Sorry about that.

Yep, just wanted to make sure you got it. I usually have it up when I post anyway, just to double check myself. Especially when Raged, Enlarged, power attacking... It can get confusing ;)

Sorry for the absence. Closed up the camper this past weekend, and it was damn cold and rainy. Then getting our life back in order at home after essentially being gone for 4 months, and my son is getting married this coming weekend and we will have out of town guests, so my "honey-do" list got real long. Also, we are taking our grand daughter to the Bronx Zoo on Tuesday of next week, so I am suspending posting till Wednesday October 15th and will pick back up then. Bot me as necessary.

ps. Retirement four years ago was supposed to FREE up time!

Kelvin, no need to apologize. Family always comes first.

Congrats on your Son getting married. Enjoy your week.

I promise not to kill off your character. Anyway the last time I GM PC'd your character, it turned out OK. ;)

Thanks for letting us know.

As of noon, I will not be home, and have no internet until Monday / Tuesday, so please bot me as necessary.

The battle versus Tsuto is all but over. I will bot the last few actions then suspend play until everyone is back sometime next week.

@Brandark - Do you want to go through the doors, or wait for Kelvin to check the doors first?

was going to wait, and that was as far as I could move short legs and all.
I was just positioning myself between possible goblins, and the party.

I might have missed this already, but how are we doing HP?

We have not discussed this. I would say use the RNG. We roll them up in our ftf. But I am open to other suggestions.

I'm fine with that. I just hope they don't do any more to try and kill us.

1d8 ⇒ 6

What if the RNG rolls a "1", then you get a re-roll. If it rolls a "1" again, then you keep the result as destiny.

hp: 1d12 ⇒ 6

Hp: 1d6 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 + 1 = 3 That was sooo clear! Wait I get a reroll
Hp: 1d6 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 + 1 = 3 ROFLMAO

Lyr is all set, up to two and ready to go . . . heal Elektra . . . a lot.

Back, will catch up then post.

hp: 1d10 ⇒ 4

abacus hp: 1d8 ⇒ 4

I can move tokens at home, but the maps won´t open at work unfort.

Sounds like your employer has security blocks on their computers.

Camper closed --- check
Pre wedding chores done --- check (mostly)
Pre "out-of-town" family chores done --- check (mostly)
Son married --- check
Collected money for cancer walk --- check
Welcomed new boss at hospital --- check
Took grand daughter to Bronx Zoo --- check
Fell into bed exhausted Tuesday night --- Priceless !!!

Will have a post out later today and update Kelvin to level 2.

Welcome back, David!

Kelvin

Kelvin HP: 1 + 1d8 ⇒ 1 + (1) = 2 dang
Kelvin HP: 1 + 1d8 ⇒ 1 + (8) = 9 whew

Nice roll. Max hp for your second level. :)

Yea, as a Rogue, and especially since a Scout and hopefully out front somewhat and sneaking around, I will probably dang well need it !

BTW, The +1 Ring of Protection has a 1000GP Sale Value.

Ok, earrings, pearls, composite short bow: 565 / 5 = 113gp

So total haul for the Glassworks is 164.9 + 113 = 277 gp each.

Who wants the Ring of Protection +1?

I would suggest we give it to lyr.

I won't object to that.

Sounds reasonable!

Makes more sense for her to have it, especially since I'll start piling on the DR soon.

I see elektra missed the fact that I was carrying a lantern.

Save the cantrips until near combat, as this way your not casting every 20 minutes. Lantern will last for 6 hours. :)

edit wrong alias AGAIN. . .:(

I considered Brandark carrying the lantern during the long trek on the Smuggler's tunnel that ended at the Goblin Cave. I was not certain of who had the light along the brick strewn West tunnel. I will take it Brandark has the light and Elektra can save her cantrip.

Where I am, 3rd in the line, I figured it was safe for me to carry it, until combat, at which point it is being put down. :)

I think the easier thing to do, would be hire someone just to hold the lamp, and run screaming in terror whenever something goes boo. :)

@Elektra - Since you will always act in the Surprise Round due to your Diviners School, go ahead and provide your proposed first round actions too in posting when Surprise is an issue. This will help move forward game play. Thanks.

No problem. Gladly.

Another house rule: 10' Reach Weapons can count two squares including on the diagonal. RAW has the second diagonal square as 15'. That is fine for movement, but limiting for weapons with a 10' reach. It means that the reach weapon is no better than non-reach weapons on the diagonal. Lyr's Glaive for instance can reach into the second diagonal. That is good enough in my estimation. Plus the same rule will apply for monsters too.

In my ftf campaigns I often use hex grids for odd shaped caverns and outdoor settings. This eliminates such ambiguities.

I have no issues with this. :)

Just to clarify on the DR for Garrath, it's dr 1 right now and it scales as he gains levels. So you'll just give raw damage, and I'll make sure the correct "actual" damage is applied?

That sounds awesome. The same for any spell effects that might reduce types of damage like Fire or Cold, or abilities like Kelvin's Evasion. I may say that the Fireball does 30 points of damage, 15 with the Reflex Save, but Kelvin will know to take no damage if he makes his Reflex Save. Those kinds of things are best kept up with by the player.

I see the RNG hates me, even when it is the GM rolling. :(

My response will be in 3-5 work days. :)

It is a good thing that there was not a trap on the statue. ;)

Luck is with the stupid... or with the brave!
Fortibus favet!

@Garrath - Lyr provided you with 4 points of healing (17HP). :)

what material is the weapon. And how old the statue? AND how heavy?=

no problem shouldn't take very long to finish it all, once i get the mythweavers sheet done filling in the stat block is a cake walk i have a template already set up.

that said how is hp being done? Max or average for level?

Finally finished, Everything should be in the Alias now. Working on an official backstory and appearance but the Crunch is all there.

How about an urban ranger? He was made as an investigator, so plenty of diplomacy (gather Information), stealth and lock picking. I will have to level him up, but he was in a failed Crimson Throne game...I will update him now and submit, if that is ok.

This is Daniel, and here is my submission. I did not add his animal companion (a mastiff) as I know some DM's do not like animal companions.

Good question.

Full HPs from 1st level.

Then roll for the next five levels. Should you roll a "1" at a level reroll. However, if you roll a "1" again at a level, then you must take. Consider it "fate." Note what level you are rolling for.

It is OK.

I have no problem with Animal Companions.

alrighty then everything is done and on the alias now spells and backstory stuff included, going to bed for now but i'll roll before doing so.

hp: 5d8 ⇒ (8, 6, 4, 3, 8) = 29

ok, then I will add mine and re-roll the hitpoints (I only used 1/2 +1 after firsts level)

5d10 ⇒ (7, 8, 9, 5, 5) = 34

@Flynn Eric - We will need to know what skills you have taken and your bonuses.

Sorry, knew i forgot something, updated it.

As one of the players in the campaign, a couple of interesting characters so far.

A note to all:

We will be keeping this recruitment thread open through Wednesday, November 18th. The current party will be instrumental in choosing their next comrade.

Both of your characters look really good, nice job.

Thnx, he's the first character i haven't just recycled into a game. made him up recently

Both look interesting, should fit in well.

Thanks! I see Dhan as a sort of Jim Rockford character. His background could be tweaked, if necessary, as he was originally created for a Crimson Throne game, or just move him from Korvosa to Magnimar.

Again, we will keep the recruitment thread open through Wednesday. Afterwards, I will ask the players to PM to me their choice and I will hopefully announce the new party member by no later than this coming weekend.

Whoa! A Rockford Files reference even!

Lol. I love that show!

Well one more day!! Best of luck Flynn and anyone else who applies!!

We have two candidates:

Flynn Eric - 6th level Inquisitor
Dhan Semloh - 6th level Ranger

Good luck!

thnx

Flynn, welcome to the party.

Dhan, it was a difficult decision. You submitted a good character. We wish you the very best in your future gaming.

Congratulations Flynn!! Have a great adventure and best of luck to the entire party! Maybe next time :-)
