You can activate the staff yes. When you take a standard action you take 1 damage after the action is resolved so you if heal enough to get positive you're fine after that.

Devyhn already used one charge of the staff to cast the cure serious wounds on himself. That brought him up to 12 hit points. There is only one charge left in the staff. Devyhn has a full battery of spells per day he can burn on cure light and cure moderate wounds, and there is also one charge left in the wand. Should I go ahead and use the last charge on myself, then heal the party with my own spells?

Use your spells first - they are renewable.
For that matter, I don't have to have healing - with Temporary hits from my Eidolon I am currently at 55hp, and I have a full quota of spells to heal my Eidolon with. That's probably more than most people have got when fully healed.
BTW I am away for the weekend, due back teatime Sunday. If necessary DMPC me.
Erik has chosen Devyhn as his charge.
I don't seem to be able to post to the gameplay thread. All my other games are fine, just this one.
It's okay now.
Good to hear
How are we dividing the loot? I don't think Lysander has expressed any preference yet.
If that's the case and no one objects, I'll take the amulet of nat'l armor +1
I'll take the headband of Alluring Charisma (+2)
Ring of protection please
Yep just say what you want and if 2 people want something just roll off. D100 highest roll gets it it. If nobody wants the same thing as you just add it to your sheet.
Hey everybody,
This is a message I'm putting up in most of the games I'm in here on the forums. I feel bad about having to do this, but I'm dropping many of the games I'm in on here--pretty much everything that's been moving at a good clip. Life's become very hectic lately, and I don't see things calming down any time soon. Between everything that's been happening, my focus has been spent elsewhere, and I'm just not able to put in the time and effort to keep up with play-by-post right now.
I've enjoyed all the games I've been in here, and it's a lot of fun. You all put it in a ton of effort and excitement, and I'd love to do the same, but right now I'm not able to do that on a regular basis. It would be unfair of me to keep going dark for days or weeks at a time, but I don't think I'll be able to avoid that for a while, and I need to focus on other things right now. I'm really sorry about having to do this, but life has reared its ugly head, and I hope you all understand.
Again, I've enjoyed my time with you all, and hope that you continue to have great gaming in the future. I look forward to the day when I can return to these boards and join new games, and maybe even play with some of you again. But for now, I have to part ways from you all.
--Loup Blanc
gah... who are you in the game? I don't see anyone as being an alias of Loup Blanc.... Whoever you are, we'll miss you!
That's a shame, but I understand. Good luck with everything.
(Pretty sure it's Lysander)
ah, damn, we'll miss ya, man, but real life always wins, as it should.
He is lysander
So should I look to recruit another or we keep going with 4? Either I think we will finish this dungeon before anyone new comes in and I will NPC Lysander until the end of it.
That sounds sensible.
latter sounds good if it's not too much work for you.
Yeah, guess that's the way to go.
OK, these items still to go:
-potion of Invisibility
-potion of eagle's splendor
-potion of fly
-wand of shield (44 charges)
I will take the wand (now with 42 charges)
I case your not aware I have a lot of stuff going on at the moment. I will try to keep up with posting but I've been offered a new position in Hamburg germany that I have decided to take.
I currently live in canada and I never left the country before and I'm going there for several years so I have a lot of stuff to sort out.
no problem.. take your time... sounds like a really exciting time for you... congrats on the new job!
Thanks for keeping us informed. Hope it all works out for you, as Bleyz said take your time, we can wait. RL always trumps a game.
Sounds exciting!
huh I didn't realize this before but I think Devyhn just died.
woops
I may have made him a little too strong -_-
Made a monk 4/rogue 3/assassin 1 for the boss dude. I thought it was a pretty cool concept were he uses crane style and defensive fighting to stay alive while using stunning fist and sneak attacks to deal damage.
Since he almost died on the 1st round (that was actually a lot more than 50% of his hp it was like 70%. I went for all out attack stunning fist+flurry+sneak attack+spend a ki for an extra attack. Never occurred to me that might kill you thought.
Oh well, the means to revive you is in this vault anyway Although the others are going to need to win first.
[ooc]well if he can take devyhn down in one round, he can probably do the same to me... I hope I can survive.
Is the revived necromancer thing an undead?
Yep
Just to remind you guys, we got a load of loot to divvy up: scrolls, spellbound, rod, amulet of natural armor, ring of protection and cloak of resistance.
fair enough yeah
The amulet would be most useful, but I think Erik would rather give it to Devyhn.

Use of 1500 gp:
400 gp to purchase a masterwork hand crossbow
100 gp for a holy symbol tattoo on the right hand palm
If Erik's sword can be further enchanted, Devyhn gives to remaining 1000 gp to Erik to add undead bane, ghost touch or some similar property to the sword.
Devyhn sells his old crossbow (half-price, IIRC) 50 gp.
Erik's sword can be further enchanted but at double the normal cost.
Does anyone know how to work out what the cost of adding either of those to Erik's sword would be?
depends on what the current plus equivalent is now... price goes up exponentially.
Sword is currently considered +1 and made of a special material.
Adding another +1 bonus to it such as undead bane would cost 12 000 gold.
We have a number of items to dispose of, both from the last fight and previously. As far as I can see, the list is:
Potion of Invisibility
Potion of Eagles Splendour
Potion of Flying
Spellbook
Lesser metamagic rod: silent
Wand - animate dead (10 charges)
Scroll - Teleport
Scroll - control undead
Scroll - false life
Scroll - Dismissal
Amulet of natural armor +2
Cloak of resistance +2
Ring of protection +1
Unless someone has a particular objection, I will happily take the wand and scrolls; Devhyn can take the rod. I don't need the potions or the Spellbook, and I'll only take the amulet or ring if no one else wants them.
I suggest we sell the Spellbook; I don't need it and I don't think anyone can use it. Everything else we can use.

Devyhn would probably have a problem with anyone doing anything with the wand of animate dead other than destroying it.
The same with the scroll of control undead, as well as any scribed undead-creating or controlling spells that may be in the spellbook. He'd rip out those pages before he'd allow it to be sold.
He would happily trade you the rod (which you may sell for cash, if you don't want to use it), as well as any claim to any of the other loot if that means he can destroy those items in Pharasma's name.
Bleyz would happily take the potion of invis...
I'd like the amulet - trade in in my amulet +1 natural armor for it, so that would be up for grabs now too

To be honest, I was only claiming them because I could use them, not necessarily because I would use them. I'm just as happy to sell them and share the sales amongst the party. Or just destroy them, if you'd prefer.
I have no real objections to destroying the icky magic that Devyhn doesn't want... Bleyz's needs are not extensive after all.
Is it possible we can take some of our extra cash from the sale of unwanted magic items and have some items crafted for us while we are here in town?
So Bleyz takes the amulet and gives back his +1 Amulet, he also takes the potion of Invisibility. Devhyn takes the rod. Achren takes the scrolls (not control undead); the wand and scroll of control undead we destroy, along with any similar spells in the Spellbook.
That leaves:
Potion of Eagles Splendour
Potion of Flying
Amulet natural armor +1
Cloak resistance +2
Ring protection +1
I can already fly, and I already have cloak of resistance +2, so I can only use the Amulet or ring, but only if no one else needs it.
What about Erik? Does he need anything?
