So... I'm guessing we missed out on the XP for killing Golario, Vimanda.. and who or whatever was casting all those Symbols... unless those were just 'paid' for traps. As far as I know Symbols spells do have a limited duration... so its likely someone was casting them... or not..scrolls work too I guess.
Are we getting anywhere near the end of this particular chapter in the AP... and do we level? Not sure about the new folks.. but me an Ebon have been here the whole time... through several tumultuous party changes; Ashe and Ebon ..might be close to leveling again.
You are almost at the end of this chapter of the AP. The level *TING* will sound thereafter... for everyone.
For Ashe's next level he will be taking Holy Vindicator level 2. Gaining this..
Holy Vindicator, Spells Per Day-2nd: +1 Level of Divine Spellcasting Class PALADIN}Stigmata-2nd {Su} : Std act, stop or start flow of blood by force of will, Bleed ½ H.V. Lvl - not stopped by magic,
Gain a sacred bonus ½ Class Levels to {attack, damage, AC, caster cks or saves}
- To change effect stop and start stigmata again
- While Stigmata are bleeding = ignore blood drain and bleed damage from Any source
- While Stigmata are bleeding = Spell-like Ability – std act, AT-WILL, Bleed or Stabilize
- Current: +4 Bonus {attack, damage, AC, caster ck, or saves}
I'm defining the bleeding with the following...
- Two pinprick wounds on throat, Four pinprick wounds two on each wrist, Two pinprick wounds on chest/breast – all as if bites from a vampire, and One last cut on left hand where IOMEDAE cut her own hand to feed Basilov his last drop of her blood.
Ashe's 9th level feat will be...
HEAVENLY VIRTUE – Virtuous Creed, -GLv9 [No Penalty to attack roll when using a lethal weapon
to deal non-lethal damage]
... out of the Pathfinder-Player's Companion: Champions of Purity, p.17
http://www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/virtue-feats/creed-of-mercy-virtue
It 'seems' appropriate for him.
Upping his perception to +9
Ashe learns a new profession: soldier +5
And a new language: Infernal, Linguistics +10
Also.. I'd very much like to disperse or liquidate the party Loot... I'm starting to get warning that Ashe's character file is too large!

Zellara's 'haunted' Harrow Deck
'This deck is beautifully hand-painted, images decorate this Harrow deck, the frames gilt in silver so that under lighting they sparkle and flash but the deck is quite worn. Despite the worn condition of the card backs, the images on the faces are so vibrant they seem to move when viewed out of the corner of the eye. The deck itself handles with surprising ease, almost shuffling itself. A bent, torn, or lost card always seems to mend itself or reappear when no one is looking. The cards have the ability to repair themselves if badly damaged. It is imbued with Zellara's spirit and she can sense what is going on around it, being able to manifest herself upon occasion as well as use her considerable skill as a Harrower to manipulate the cards. If you hold the deck, it can also tell you about up to 3 magic items per day, acting as an Identify spell.'

Am I talking to myself... is there anyone listening? Are we getting a post soon? Have we lost Dex?
I'm here.
Still here
Dancing to the beat.
Am I talking to myself... is there anyone listening? Are we getting a post soon? Have we lost Dex?
I hate to do this, but I've lost Ebon's 'voice', and I don't seem to be able to find and keep it. I realise my last few months of posts have been pretty poor. I'm reading what's happening, but I don't seem to have anything to add. Possibly that's also because I've been desperately conserving spells for the last year or so.
I think I'm going to drop out.
Well I'm sorry to hear that Ebon... personally.. I don't think or feel your posts have been lacking at all. In a effectively dungeon crawl where enemies have been sparing and mostly traps have been our only interaction.. there was not much that needed to be said, but you have in my opinion stayed in -character admirably in all that.
We have had no rogue to disarm by-pass all the traps so.. it took a lot of time-consuming cunning and methodical carefulness on the bard paladin's part {the closest thing to a rogue we have had} to make our way through them... not much interaction was really needed so the role-play of the situation has been reasonably light on ALL our interactions.
But something to consider... the next part of the AP takes us into the lands of the Shoanti.. right up Ebon's culture and storyline. It would be a shame to make it all the way through the dungeon crawl and miss out on a chance to interact with the culture that is the core of your character.
But you must do what you feel is best if that is your choice, but I'd hope you'd reconsider. Been a lot of fun to have you in the game...you will be missed.
Well in either case... we seem to have lost Dex...no posts in weeks. So.. I'm ...again going to post in our recruitment threat for two more players...
I say if we have a break we sell some/most of the loot and convert to gold or buy useful items for the party, maybe even do some good for the community with a bit of it.
Yeah, I agree... but I think it will have to be after we leave Korvosa. I think if we are headed for the Cinderlands of the Shoanti.. we will be going through Kaer Maga...which would be an ideal place to sell loot for money and make purchases.
Thanks for picking me to join the game... Do you want to give intros for the new characters to respond to, or just sort of intro ourselves ?
Hello folks. Will update profile when i get back home tomorrow =^^=
Thanks everyone! Great to join in. I'm still doing a little profile tweaking, especially for Nini, but ready to go.
FYI, not sure if everyone knows this, but if you dot and then delete your dot, it still adds the campaign to your list of campaigns.
yup, I already dotted and deleted.
Ditto =^^=
Looks interesting.. welcome all
Asked fiancé to update profile. Looks good now =^^=

Darn. Missed cutoff...
Anyway. Question for GM:
An animal with an INT of 3 can learn any skill. Can they take lunguistics? And if they do, does it cancel out the need for "tricks" if they share a language with their companion?

Good day everybody. Nice to meet all of you.
Hey Garridan. Love Horizon Walkers. I have a lvl4 HW in a home game =^^=

Hello to all of the new Crew! We're glad to have you all! Now we just have to wait for Megan to get us down to the Barge and out of Arkona palace.. so we can at least some of us regroup at the Cathedral/Fotress of PHARASMA.
Waiting on you Megan!
I think we could probably all invent a reason to be at the Cathedral of Pharasma if that would be easiest.
Allready have my reason to be there =^^=

Good day happy PBPers.
I will be flying out later tonight to attend my wedding. For reasons yet unknown to me, my fiance believes I will not have time on our honeymoon to update games I am in. While I am befuddled why she would think such a thing, I am willing to entertain the possibility.
In all seriousness, I will not be posting frequently again until October 15th. I may get a few in, but it is very low on my priority list.
Thank you all for your understanding, and I will see you soon.
Until then, Happy Gaming!
Yay! Happy wedding! I'm running a local con this weekend. I think I'll still be able to get a post in each day, but if I miss any time, that's why. Back to normal next week.
Bada-BING! HEY-Big time Congrats! Best of wishes... and sincerest hopes for your future happiness! :)
Congrats on the wedding! Have fun!
Haha. Mine is 1st weekend in Dec :)
Grats and try and enjoy

People are surprised when they see me and hear my age... i think if i shave and put on an uniform i can go back to school... even if it was about 11 years ago

lol... yes they ARE young, my 33rd was in August.
My 45th was three Tuesdays ago.. :)
Awesome sauce. Great to know it still goes on and has been going on for so long. Hope to have many enjoyable posts with you people =^^=
Bunch of old farts here (in which category I firmly place myself).
Megan: are you a Brit? Only us Brits (or ex Brits, in my case) get to claim to have watched the first Dr Who :-). I still fondly remember playing Darleks in the school playground :-). "I am a Darlek, I will destroy"
Congratulations to you, Akina.
Oh-ho.. you are so mistaken!
I remember being 8 years old and glued to the TV watching Doctor Who - Tom Baker {my childhood's ONLY Doctor} on PBS channel 20 EVERY Sunday in rapt attention... I've lived in US - Indiana/Indianapolis all my life!

“Now the question of the hour is, “Who’s got the Pandorica?” Answer: I do. Next question: Who’s coming to take it from me? [Pause] Come on! Look at me! No plan, no back-up, no weapons worth a damn! Oh, and something else I don’t have: Anything to lose! So, if you’re sitting up there in your silly, little spaceship with all your silly, little guns, and you’ve got any plans on taking the Pandorica tonight, just remember who’s standing in your way! Remember every black day I ever stopped you and then, and then, do the smart thing: Let somebody else try first.”
Oh..sorry for the lateness of my post.. been busy seeing "The Martian".. :)
Course, the big thing is everyone just stands around while The Doctor monologues instead of shooting him.
Ok, it sounds like we should now figure out how all of our characters meet.
My suggestion for Garridan is a fairly simple one. His investigations into what the heck is going on in his home town has led him to some knowledge of the Justicars. Lady Anica ‘Sarah’ Stolyarev (Asherak's mother) is a 3rd cousin twice removed from Garridan. Discovering this link, Garridan approached Lady Stolyarev and informed her that he would very much like to meet her son because he thought that they could be of help to each other.
Asherak presumably drops in on his mother and a message is passed to me to meet somewhere (I'm guessing the temple of Pharasma is simplest).
How does that sound?
Edit: I'm very open to other suggestions. That is just what occurred to me after SECONDS of intensive thought :-)
That could work... though Asherick would be desperately hoping his mother and little sister would have long followed his urgent suggestion that they leave Korvosa to safety either in Magnimar or in among the Varisian traveling caravans of the Sczarni! Korvosa is no longer 'safe' with the Red Mantis assassins openly operating in the city~ for ANYONE associated with the JUSTICARS!
I think that for Iňuksuk, the easiest thing will be for him to be at the Temple of Pharasma when the rest of you come back in. There is a clear connection between Iňuksuk's work with the poor of the city and a similar role that the Church would be playing (the midwife side of the Church for example).
