This is one of those tests where having none of the party rolling above 10 is a good thing right? R-right? >.>

The bit you are looking at is probably the initiative rolls for this round, which on the whole were not great, but shouldn't significantly change much in the grand scheme of things. There are probably a few saving throws coming though, so start warming up your dice. ;)
Yeah better flubb this then vs Flesh to Stone :p
What I find a bit worrysome is that there was this intermission, followed by Ser Richard effectively opening the meeting and allowing this lich to speak up, then throwing him the skull of his servant, while his guards start lining the balcony.
Getting very "red wedding" vibes here.
A bit yeah :p
And is mr king skeleton pulling his punches - or are someone else using this as an excuse to throw indiscriminate fireballs at people :d?
It's a Simulacrum, maybe, with half-strength spells? We all survived that, and Durgan just healed the whole room for two-thirds of the damage. Though lucky dice on my part.

Or more than half my dice came up 2 or less. ;)
Worst fireball ever.
In case people are still having difficulty logging in to their Paizo accounts, here's a brief overview of the cause and how to fix it.
While we wait for everyone else to post, sit back, relax, and enjoy this--my more interesting alter ego. ;)
Stay thirsty my friends.
Hmm maybe I should put Spellcraft into the status bar?

If you like. I always put Knowledges, Perception, and Sense Motive, and Spellcraft in mine. I take 10 a lot on Knowledge skills and ID checks and it just makes it easier to find/remember. I also keep the charges for things like class abilities, daily spells by level (for spontaneous casters), and wands that I use most often, and keep them up to date along with my character's hit points.
Pushing us onward tonight.
Sorry for the disappearance, I lost access to my account for a bit, and with a plethora of other things going on the past week or so didn't feel like dedicating the time/frustration to getting it back.
Understandable. I ran into similar but then a couple of days later had the vague remembrance of this sort of thing happening before. If it happens again I'll try to remember to post directions (if I can find them) sooner. ;)
I'm thinking maybe carve off a few slivers for good luck at least :d
There will be a delay of game. I apologize to everyone, but this is unavoidable. We are putting an expansion onto our house and when they opened the wall, they found extensive (very extensive) termite damage. So In addition to the uncontrolled chaos of having my home torn apart and remodeled, I am dealing with a rather expensive termite treatment bill (and they just keep finding more). Finally, I have a convention coming up that I serve on staff for (running the entire game room and taking care of the website). This has left me frazzled and has overcome my depression meds to the point that I am on the edge of a razor over the abyss.
I am not shutting the game down, just letting you know that my posts will be sporadic for the next several weeks until we get this resolved (hopefully by the end of the month). I will try to update as often as I can, but please be understanding if there is a long delay.
Was curious and poked around. Apparently Serena's player is having a lot of trouble right now, which explains why we haven't seen them around.
Can't do anything about that sort of bugs over the net. But some well wishes, for what they're worth! Take care and I hope stuff works out as well as it can :)
Good to know. Thanks Illthir!
Aye aye.
It was copy-pasted over in the games where they DM (I think?). And considering that getting your house and wallet wrecked is extremely upsetting it kinda figures they didn't exactly have the energy to calmly sit down and go over everything :/
Moving us along after work tonight.
What PCs can endure in PF is just astonishing.
Durgan fell 50' onto some spikes, and that did less than half his HP in damage.
I didn't see any way to narrate that plausibly; at 5th level he is just that tough.
Fortunately, he has Fly as a domain spell, although ascending vertically may be a challenge.
Oh I know. The same goes for most D&D-style games. I just thought it was funny.
I have a funny Vampire story about a bloodcurling sigh.
I'm playing an Iron Gods AP atm, the barbarian recently charged a robotic monster with the equivalent of two miniguns tanking them with his face. That aside, spells, even evocation type, are often farm less dangerous than "sword to face" /shrug. a level 1 character can hit with the same force of (on average) 40-50 ft of falling.
I'm back. I tried to get in a week ago, but the site had me locked out and with the convention, it has taken until today when I had time to fix it. As Ilithir (thank you) explained above, we are having some... issues. However, the convention is over and I'll be catching up over the next few days, but then I should be back to regular posting.
YAY!
My apologies. I was lured - by a group of friends, no less - into playing Lost Arc. And my personality is seriously ill-suited to online RPG's. (as is my available time. None of those friends have kids. So I struggled trying not to fall too far behind - and failed anyway.) In a burst of addiction, my priorities temporarily shifted into a unhealthy pattern.(did I mention my personality is ill-suited to this kind of game? I'll say it again.)
And normally I at least get to get a post or two in during work hours, but had some events(first aid refresher etc...) that kept me away from the computer.
I started catching up and will try and get a post in tomorrow.
Sorry, can't blame the site for this one(last time I did have issues with it), this time around it's entirely on me.
YAY! (Again.) ;)
Busy weekend. I'll be back on Monday (EST) at the latest.
I did want to post, but I figure I am also inside the maze - but had no prompt yet because I was MIA?
Did I hear Zokon? Because if I hear none of MY companions, I would probably remain silent myself and look for some exit.(that can be considered a declaration of intent for gameplay purposes if I understood my situation correctly.)

Not knowing when Alia would return I had given myself a possible out by placing her in a possible other maze. I call this solution Schrodinger's elf. I would have had to do something similar with Serena and Durgan had they both failed their save even though there were more than a half-dozen possible teleportation end points. So yes, Alia is in the same maze as Zokon and most definitely heard Shepherd Keegh (because he was yelling), and probably Zokon (even though he wasn't), though at the very least Alia would know that Keegh seemed to be speaking with him.
Anyhow, I'll put you on the maze map.
Small hammer is silver, if it matters :)
@Illthir, are you factoring both Inspired Rage and Haste into your attacks?
Yes, though only typed that out last round. Shaken pretty much removes the positive bits on the to-hit side :)
(The spirit totem is unaffected by modifiers, both ways, as per some faq.)
((And I see now that the second line specifies living foes, so not helpful here anymore sadly!))
Benefit: While raging, the barbarian is surrounded by spirit wisps that harass her foes. These spirits make one slam attack each round against a living foe that is adjacent to the barbarian. This slam attack is made using the barbarian’s full base attack bonus, plus the barbarian’s Charisma modifier. The slam deals 1d4 points of negative energy damage, plus the barbarian’s Charisma modifier.
Sad doot.
Oops. We'll let the rage results stand, and move forward using the errata.
How "dense" is the hedge? Specifically, could one push through a wall? Or scale it to get an overview of the surrounding area?
Alia would probably have to do a lot of chopping. The core of the hedge is made up of thick boughs with sharp spiky branches. They go up 10 feet, and unless you are Tiny or smaller are not really scalable. Small creatures could squeeze through them for the cost of some possible scrapes--a little like passing through a damaging wall spell. The stone sections of wall are 12' tall.
A perfect time to be a halfling /w reduce person in other words :d
---
Welp at least we're not shaken anymore. But the dice rolls certainly took a turn south ...
@Illthir - maybe a Gallant Inspiration?
You can cast spells while under Inspired Rage, right? We can't, but I think you can.
Aye aye she can. Think we may need Glitterdust spam in the future though ... So hesitant to dump spell slots into extra attacks. (only got 2 more slots!)
And right now the battle *looks* like it is going well.
I moved Illthir a bit further, swapping the 5-foot for a move action and some change. Figured she'll use one attack on the last undead - but rerolling seems unfair :p
That's fine though I probably won't post until later tonight.
Posting tonight after work.
Posting tonight (again) after work.
Happy Ramadan, Easter and Passover, everyone!
Happy Stuff indeed!
Apologizing as well, won't get sit-down-and-post time until the immediate holidays have passed at least I think. So hopefully tomorrow monday :)
My ISP has been down for a week, and will be for another 1-2 weeks, so posting will be a bit more difficult for me.
Is Illthir aware of what an efreeti is, fable wise? (aka some sort of spirit reluctantly and assholishly grants wishes)
Feeling that perhaps she'll have better luck trying to loophole it (or some other cunning word-trap) then actually beating it down with a stick :p
This reminds me of the time I got a huge roll on my knowledge (identify monster) check and instead of asking for its defenses and weaknesses I asked what languages it spoke and what it's diet was. ;)
I guess let's see what Illthir, an character from the frozen north knows about the creatures of Arabian legend.
I'm a creature from the frozen north and I know about Arabian legends. Globalism helps though :p
This was my idea, if the command was something vague like "fight" or cause havoc. Hopefully the dice really agree :d

For good or for ill there is no social media.
In Golarion, no one can hear you post.
Say, where's everyone else at?
Durgan was looking for bloody footprint tracks in the room he was in.
I am not sure what he hears from outside.
