OGGM's Sins of the Saviors (Inactive)

Game Master Old Guy GM

I'll do that -- provided I'm no longer stunned by the Abyss' turkeys.

That's Abyssal turkeys to you. Remember the stun lasts one round.

Praxim, that's a good question regarding Seeking. But seeing as Mirror Image is not concealment, it does not help.

Thordak, I added the damage to your hit on the yellow vrock for Crusaders Edge.

I pulled Rexil's icon off the map because I believe he is down.

Cool. Thanks!

I have been off balance this entire combat. Time to take some control back.

Sorry guys, been really sick for a few days. Getting caught back up at work.

Are you feeling better?

Yes, I am now. Just pretty far behind here. I'll get things moving again shortly.

Get well soon.

No worries at all, bud. Take your time and get yourself better for sure. It's all good.

Thordak: as stated in the room's description (way back when) the large pools of sewage are 10' below the floor level (the grey area). Even enlarged, it's going to take you a turn to get out of that pool via climbing. I'm going to use your turn to do just that. I'll finish up the round here shortly.

That's cool. I really didn't exactly know what I could do so I just went ahead with what I did and figured you would correct it if need be.

Well, that was fairly epic, if I do say so. Hopefully you guys enjoyed that fight. It was definitely a challenge keeping it all straight.

High level fights are like that.

For future note, if a wall of ice is cast next to a character (within reach) they can attempt a Reflex save to disrupt its formation.

Raise dead and a couple of restorations should do it for Rexil. Praxim will pay out of his share of any loot.can they break the immovable rods out of the throne, or are they...immovable?

Don't those doodads usually have a button that makes them movable?

It's the throne that's the problem.

If it's Disintegrated, will the rods also be disintegrated?

Does someone have the loot list?

That was a pretty epic fight. Pretty dang awesome. And you ain't kidding, high level battles are absolutely insane trying to keep everything straight. Gives me a headache just thinking about it. :P

@Praxim: understood. As this combat went on, I had to go back to making some rolls 'off-screen' as it were, just to save on typing time. This was one of them...I think. It's very possible I missed it. Will keep better track.

The immovable rods can be moved...as long as you take the proper precautions regarding the 6-ton throne sitting on them. I guess you could disintegrate the throne, not a bad idea at all. But it might make a neat souvenir in Castle Lym once it's cleaned up...

My search-fu is imperfect, but, as far as I can tell, this is the list of loot we have since entering the Rune Well, minus any gold and books and any items claimed by a character.

Illusion: 
*ring of protection +1 x6 
*cloak of resistance +2 x6 
*headband of vast intelligence +2 x6 
*golden peacock statue 800gp 
*Robe of the Archmagi (evil)  
*cape of the mountebank 
*Tome of Leadership and Influence +2

Enchantment: 
*+2 glamered mithril chain shirt 
*sadist's lash 
*+1 dagger 
*belt of physical might +4 (Dex, Con)

Transmutation
*cloak of resistance +1
*rod of metal and mineral detection

Conjuration
*rod of absorption
*cloak of resistance +3
*handy haversack
*ring of protection +2

*silver mirror worth 1,000 gp
*Immovable Rod x2
*Scroll of Planar Ally
*Scroll of Teleport
*Scroll of Stone to Flesh
*Manual of Gainful Exercise +2

Thordak does have the Tome of Leadership and Influence +2. He tried to give it to Aurora but it never happened because she vanished on us.

And for some reason neither Tomaru or Praxim want it either.

So, in that regard, he'll dump it back in the pile. And if nobody just flat out don't want it, he'll read it and increase his already fantastic good looks and equally as great charm and wit! :)

But he'd really like that Manual of Gainful Exercise +2. I won't deny that that could come in quite the handy for him.

Oh! And that Handy Haversack. He doesn't have one of those but he'd take it if no one wants it. Technically it's not really necessary because he doesn't really need it but it would allow him to carry even more stuff. So, again, only if no one else takes it.

Praxim would take that Tome...we just wasn’t going to take it over the party sorcerer.

Ohhhhh okay. I see. Well cool. At least that's settled.

I've been looking back on our adventures in the Runeforge…
Did anyone claim Delvahine's sadist's lash, and if not, how do you guys feel about putting it in an offering fund for future binding occasions?

No one claimed the Sadist's Lash. Let's offer it to her.

Note: I plan on performing a more thorough search of the loot we've acquired while in the Rune Well. I will try to include who claimed which item to help make sure it is as correct as I can get it. Hopefully, I will be done in a few days.

Praxim will be returning a +4 belt of dexterity to the communal pot with his new belt.

Thordak definitely needs the cape of the mountebank, for both practical and stylistic reasons.

Rexil will take the +2 ring of protection, putting a +1 ring into the pot.

Also, just so you know, it has been a year March 15 since we leveled up. Just so you know.

What's your point? ;)

OK fine, you all can be 15th level. Sheesh, no making players happy...

YES!... the cape of the montebank! Praxim's totally right. Thordak'll take that. (and mostly for stylistic purposes) :P *Yoink!*

And cool! 15th level. Has it really been that long? Hasn't felt like it, that's for sure. Couldn't've told you that.

@Praxim: I've already included your belt in the enchantment section. I did forget to note to note it was from you, though.

@OGGM: The spellbooks are all claimed by Lym. When I was speaking of books for Brodert, I meant the rest of the books we've come across, though we want to make sure none have much evil knowledge in it. You know, just in case.

Also, could you list the items she did take so I can keep record of what we have left?

Illusion:
*bookcases full of tomes and scrolls 1500gp Brodert
*ring of protection +1 x6
*cloak of resistance +2 x6
*headband of vast intelligence +2 x6

*Manual of Gainful Exercise +2 Thordak
*spellbooks Lym

Lym already posted an account of the books she has. I believe she's turning those over to the Deva (she should already have any spells from them).

Did Praxim lose a Leadership point for Rexil dying or does having him raised nullify that? Either way, his score should be high enough to also level Rexil. I was planning to give him a level of barbarian, but he’s lawful so that’s a no-go. Therefore I’m thinking of thug rogue instead.

OK. What about any other items?

BTW, this time, I plan to level Aurora.

Cleric Level 15
Hit Points: 1d8 ⇒ 5

Spells: 5th level +1, 8th level +1

Diplomacy +1
Fly +1
Knowledge (religion) +1
Sense Motive +1

Superior Summoning

Praxim doesn't lose anything for Rexil.

Tomaru: I'm not sure if that question about items was for me. There aren't any more that I can think of beyond what you've already noted.

Rexil adds a level of unchained rogue (thug).

+2 Reflex, +4 Intimidate, +4 Perception
Feat: Furious Focus
Sneak attack +1d6
HP: +5+4+1+1=11

Frightening (demoralize lasts longer, can frighten).

*DING* LEVEL-UP!

I'll take another level in Wizard, for Evoker 9 / Cyphermage 6

HP: 3 + 1 + 2 Con. + 1 Toughness + 1 favoured class = 8 (97)

Fort. +1 (+9)
Ref. + 1 (+8)

New feat: Improved iron will

Skill ranks: 2 + 5 Int. = 7
Fly +1 (+16)
Knowledge (arcana) +1 (+25)
Knowledge (planes) +1 (+19)
Linguistics +2 (+23) - picking up Aquan and Terran.
Spellcraft +1 (+25)
Use magic device +1 (+10)

Spellcasting: One additional 5th-level slot; 8th-level slot open.
Spells/day becomes: 4/7/6/6/6/6/4/3/2

New spells:
Three spells from the dead guy in Sloth - Create demiplane, Greater planar binding, Summon monster VIII
Lym's own spells: Dimensional lock, Telekinetic sphere*

Lym will take a moment to fill her new 8th-level spell slots with Summon monster VIII and Telekinetic sphere. ;)

Praxim gets a new mercy. Considering injured (gives fast healing 3 for 7 rounds), stunned, or paralyzed. Thoughts?

@OGGM the question was for you. All the Deva wants from the loot list are the evil cloak of the archmagi and the sex whip?

@OGGM the question was for you. All the Deva wants from the loot list are the evil cloak of the archmagi and the sex whip?

She's not touching that whip with a flaming greatsword. She takes the robe and the spellbooks (I thought Lym had offered those up).

She did offer spellbooks she had prior to the Runeforge. I'm only talking about what we have from the Runeforge. I think we're on the same page now. Thanks.

Aurora
Sorcerer Level 14
Hit Points: 1d6 ⇒ 6

Spells: 7th level +1 (Power Word Blind)

Fly +1
Linguistics +1
Perception +1
Spellcraft +1
Use Magic Device +1

Level 15 Paladin
HP: 6+3+1=+10
Reflex +1
All skills up
New feat: Improved Snap Shot (he now threatens out to 10 feet with his bow).
New mercy: ??? He already has paralyzed, so it’s a toss up between injured and stunned, and given how devastating stunned could be at this level, I think I’ll go with that.

Injured! Fast healing is pretty awesome you know. Yeah I meant to throw my opinion out there but for some reason didn't. Not exactly sure why to be honest.

Of course, I guess all you're really talking about is 21 hp's. So, stunned is probably the best bet. I'm just a fast healing fan is all. Now if it was like fast 5 for 1 minute, then you're talking about 50 hp's so that would be cool.

You are cordially invited…

Terribly busy here at work this week, appreciate your patience.

Just starting to get my head above water here, should have this thing going again today or tomorrow.

My bad again. TOTALLY meant to check this yesterday but freaking blew it. So annoying. Got to run a quick errand but should have it in about an hour.

We're back, baby!

@OG: You actually hit Thordak with the G mummy.

@Thordak: yes, the green one was still (un)alive at the time they attacked.

With everyone jumping forward in the order, I have to scroll back and forth many times to try and get the order of who hit what when correct. It's something I struggle with, because if I just do blocks of you v them, it doesn't really do the initiative roll justice. But it's easier for me.

On the other hand, if I do smaller blocks like this combat, it's slows things a bit while we wait for each block to post their actions. If people get out of order (by Group A vs Group B) it's far more complex for me.

It's a conundrum for sure.
