Ongoing PFS campaign. (Inactive)

Game Master Chyrone

I already spent my last 4 Prestige for the negative level, so if the adventure's truly done, it's as good as removed.

As for reviving Lot, I don't suppose anyone else would like to chip in? I'd be all in favor of doing the same for Alacorta if we could pool the whole thing - it is comparatively cheap.

Weird secondary condition, I must say - and unfortunate, too. I'm still (lightly) kicking myself for not trying to pacify the elephant with Handle Animal.

Would anyone happen to have that Prized Find Boon from "The Wounded Wisp" or whichever one it was that gives you a 1-time grace on gaining secondary condition Prestige you wouldn't otherwise have gotten? Now's a good time.

Also, if I'm not mistaken, did we "recover blackmail or incriminating evidence against a named NPC aristocrat, noble, ambassador, or similar figure" this adventure? It's a Sovereign Court Faction Objective (and if so, I think I'd also be able to check another "Fulfill another objective without revealing your faction allegiance" box).

In other news, I'm level 6 now!

While you found incriminating letters, the bad guy here is none of the above. He's a merchant.

I will make one last-ditch attempt at that by pointing out that, in many societies, a sufficiently rich and influential merchant would qualify as a "similar figure" (and, though this be meta, I'd wager this is one of the Scenarios the designers would say qualifies for that objective, since finding blackmail material on anybody, while it does happen sometimes, isn't the most common occurrence in this game) - certainly here in ultra-mercantile Qadira, that social equivalency would almost certainly apply.

What say you: Persuasive?

He's not described as a person of importance, other than the plot.

If talking rich and influential, it could be someone of any profession, such as a restaurant owner, a thieves' guild's master, the rich village elder.

Sorry, but this desert cur doesn't quite fit the bill.

I'll get to the chronicles tonight, and we'll see what we can do next.

In that case, what about the newlyweds? Is one or both of them a "named NPC aristocrat, noble, ambassador, or similar figure" whom I could try to discreetly take aside and recruit?

The groom is a pathfinder, a humble scholarly type.
The bride is the daughter of the head of The House of Silver.

And i'm reading back into that, so expect edit in 15.

Edit:

The House of Silver is the term for an establishment that sells rare jewels and alchemical silver.
The merchant who runs it is elderly of age, and plans to retire to a monastery. He's respected for being wize, but is not influential or politically connected.

Spenser, you mentioned you spent 4 PP to remove a negative level.
Raise dead gets you 2 of those.

Unless you meant the 4 last PP earned, you're crossing onto your next mision with 1 negative level.

In other news:
You have enough money yourself to buy Lot back to the land of the living.
Unless others care for partial funding, it will be from your account.

Therefor i will wait with sending the chronicles, until that's clarified.
I have them semi-ready atm.

Other than that, game reported. :)

You misunderstand; I started this adventure with 8 Prestige, and already spent them all (the latter 4 preemptively) to cure the negative levels.

Ah, ok. :)

So guys, about what's next.

Season 0 missions that are with subtier 5:
Citadel of Flame (Tier 4-5) (I think this should be low threat, as enemies come in few numbers overall, only the final encounter might be a nuisance.)
To scale the Dragon (Tier 5-6) (I haven't read this, so i don't know what threat level label i should put on this.)

Something other for lvl 5: the module: Dawn of the Scarlet Sun.
A module would get you to lvl 6.1 after completion, i think you guys are 5.1 now, right? Lvl 6+ anyway with that.

Spenser's played more missions from the earlier list than you have. Plus he's lvl 6 now. Lady of Silver was the only one he hadn't mentioned as played before.

What are the thoughts?

I was thinking (as mentioned a while back) I could take the DM's chair for the next adventure, having played all those (I'd need some assistance with technical rigmarole).

For which mission?

As far as credit, i only have GM credit on Citadel of Flame.

Aside that, i don't have a lvl 5+ PC.

Citadel of Flame is season 1, but that said, I haven't played either of those on your short list, or Dawn of the Scarlet Sun either, so any of those would be fine with me.

I'd like that module for my own credit, as it can get that PC from lvl 5 to 6 in 1 go.

Of course, he still needs 2 tier 3-4 missions and 1 (preferably) 4-5 mission credit.
It would make it possible for the PC to keep up as a sheet dump.

I was thinking of doing "Citadel of Flame," if that's alright.

Sure.

What are the thoughts?

I played Dawn of the scarlet sun, also this is not a modelu, but a "free RPG day scenario" and it gives only 1 XP (and more o less the same money than a 5-6 season 4 scenario)

GM, do you have season 1 scenarios? there are some 5-9 in them and maybe Spenser haven't played them.

If it's a scenario, then why is it listed under the modules? :)
When downloaded it's also mention as a module.

Season 1 yes, but likely those missions will be included in the Season 1 group's GM credit.

I'll take a look tomorrow, as it's almost 23:30, and i have to get up early. :)

Nvm, some other thread mentions what you said.

Ugh, such a pity.

I've done none of them... this is my highest pc so i'll always be clear

Spenser, if you want, you can use my 'ongoing' map for this.
Everyone's pics and bubbles are ready after all.

I'm not sure, but since this isn't a gameday thing, you might be able to continue in this thread. I've not yet had to produce/link a recruitment or game thread to report my games after all.

If you're making a new thread, i've got to dot, i want to see you guys tackling this. :)

I've done a split-DM game thread once before (with Baerlie, if you know her); it works.

Can you send me the adventure?

I think it's because it's not a Society scenary. But a short module produced for the Free RPG Day in the same way that WBG, but that's just my opinion.

Keera is right. Same with We Be Goblins and others.

No it isn't. It is your guess/conjecture about an objective fact with only one correct answer. You are not presently certain, nor is anyone else who has yet posted, but your guess can be proven either right or wrong. Basic epistemology, try to remember :)

Just waiting for Chronicles and (if possible) a copy of "Citadel of Flame" from Chyrone.

Oi, i forgot about them?

Whoops, sorry ^^. Those chronicles will come tonight.

Get him my robots!!!

Robots?

I've sent the chronicles.

Spenser, a copy of my PDF is included, i'll be looking forward to this. :D

So is everybody ready? Make Day Job rolls, please.

Chyrone, please remind me how to put the maps up (or perhaps you can do it yourself).

I've put those maps up.

It's 2 parts only, the 2nd one is underneath the rectangle.

day job, prof cartographer: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (18) + 9 = 27

No Dayjob

Gm Spells are Heros Defiance and Firebelly

Purchased hot weather gear

No Day jobs.

I still haven't looked at the chronicle, but given the limited gold, I don't think I am getting much.

I should be ready tomorrow morning.

I was thinking on something.

As this is tier 4-5, my summoner (pre-unchained) is applicable.
So if nobody minds... savvy? :)

ok w/ me chyro

Be my guest!

Mind you, I'll still need your help with technical map/reporting stuff.

That's okay.

Just ask when that happens.

At least we don't need to pay for an AC rez if the eidolon dies because this GM hates them as much ;)

Er..say what?

Rude!!!

I'm the very example of exotic beauty. :3
And are you speaking about IDIYC, or you yourself?

I'm sorting finances currently.

Should be ready this evening.

Do you know yet what the next adventure will (or could) be?

I'd like that scarlet sun, but i know you have done that already.

I'll look into it when we're near completing this one.

Take 10 for 17 on Craft [Translation Dictionary].

I'm guessing Keera will either bring a giant wasp, vulture or pteranodon.

Vultures are such endearing creatures.

If she really doesn't want to bring him bck, maybe Keera wants to take Alacorta's senseless, Tasha Yar-ish death as an excuse to take a 'dark' turn and retrain as a Blight/Death Druid?

I don't know about PFS legality, but i've read about Accursed Animal Companions.

AC (or mounts) that come with a benefit, while the benefit becomes a temporary burden upon the PC. It usually involves a violent/brutal death.

Alacorta being shredded by lions.....

I was thinking in understanding that life and death all or part of the same thing and joining Green faith, but I need to check if I can join. (by PPs and haing the book)

Also, I like Rocs and no other flying creature feels "in theme" with her (flying dinosaurs? unintelligent companions? heck, no). Maybe the vultura, but I like so much the high AC of a Roc, even if it serves nothing against Chyro.

So I`ll let the profile and search a new name and background for my animal companion.

Stupid pfs ambushes and spell that only last minutes, couldn't cast my prot spell as i had no idea how long it would take .. and then of course ambushed.
