Male Tengu Rogue5/Shadowdancer3

Sliding from a dark shadow a strange creature all done up in black leather and strips of netting like a gillie suit moves into view,"Sometimes you call for the darkness, and it answers you.
Moving along the floor popping up and down is a shadow of what looks like a dragon, only its about the size of a man. It moves about slithers this way and that before hiding the Birdmans shadow.

Seaweed watches the coin spinning. On one side, a good healer can keep a second line fighter in the fight as long as a first line fighter. The cleric looks around the table trying to recall who else was on the duty roster's 'on-call' at the lodge.

Okay, so far we have:

  • Bloodbeak the Rogue - tengu rogue (shadow walker) 5/shadowdancer 3
  • Tytus Umbraeyes - tiefling investigator (empiricist)
  • Lymwin Shinebug - gnome alchemist 7
  • Aikio the Red or Seaweed Brandiday - Tengu wiz/sorc 6/1 or human cleric 7.

On the other side a good mage can down enemies quicker than a good front line fighter sometimes can. By the winds! Don't the venture captains have a better procedure for these things? Somewhere in the bylaws their must be a policy for this?

The child of pirates doesn't like the chaos. The human touches the holy symbols of Gozreh.

The coin continues to spin on the table. Spinning, spinning....

Aikio the Red watches the coin spinning. "Shiny!" the tengu exclaims.

90% certain Aikio is in another table, so I will commit with Seaweed.

A level 3 can't play with a level 8 ....can it?


No. this is a game ONLY for level 7 or 8.

Okay, great! Please update his character sheet.

A short Andoran man steps lightly, coming around a corner. His legs are bent to cushion his steps and his eyes quickly take in any motion. While he doesn't seem overly threatening, his entire stance speaks of a predator seeking out his prey. Arrows hang form his belt and the tip of a bowstave peeks out of an obviously magical quiver. But the arrow-shaped tattoo on his forearm shows that this is not an ordinary hunter. He's one of Erastil's Hunters. He seeks to bring down enemies of the faith. He hunts some of the most dangerous prey of all: Oppression and Evil

I have updated Seaweed to a 7th 6th level cleric. I audited Seaweed while going through the update. I realized one of my chronicles assigned to my -2 should have been entered in my -1. Seaweed also died and received no credit last week (I got better :). As a result Seaweed is still at 16 XP. I am GMing Monday & chose a scenario to apply so should be good to go by the 27th.


Sounds good. Good luck and don't die again!


Okay, folks! Only five days to go! I'm excited! I hope you are, too.

The Venture Captain won't assign you your task until the 27th, but now's a great time for each of you to introduce yourselves in-character and get to know each other a bit.

Seaweed doffs a cap of stone and replaces it with the traditional big hat of the pirates. The cleric traces fingers over the green frond to fluff it up. Despite that efreet's best effort, I survived. And a whole city of oreads! How exciting, definitely one for the Chronicles."

Seaweed survived & can now be level 7. Will there be a gamethread soon? EDIT: Oh there is, 21 minutes ago ;p


Si!

Tytus will make some Antitoxin and Antiplague and also some insect repellant before starting on the adventure.

that moment you post in gameplay thinking its discussion


Just a quick note: This is going to be a busy weekend for me. We'll get started this weekend, but it may not be tonight.


Okay, before we begin, I need to ask you a question.

How many of you have played the precursor adventure to this one (Pathfinder Society Scenario #6–04: Beacon Below)?

If you have played that scenario, I need to know whether you have one of the following boons and if so, which one: Recruiter of Badru or Recruiter of Saruna.

Played, but with different char, and no boons.

I have played Beacon Below. It was with a different character, and he got neither boon.


Which just leaves Lymwin...

So, if no one has either boon, we get to pick. Would you rather discuss the missing Amethyst Sage, target of your investigation, with someone who loved him or someone who hated him?

loved him???

Just waiting to hear from Lymwin, then.


Okay. Loved it is then!


Hey, gang. My computer has died. I still have my iPad and occasional access to a laptop (like now), but it's going to be slow going until I manage to fix or replace the computer. Please bear with me.


Blood beak has informed me that he has dropped from the game for real-life reasons. I wish him the best of luck.

In the meantime, I'll post something today.

Hey all, I can't reach internet from my phone without it opening to a page saying 'click to win an I-phone'. Since I won't click OK (its a trap!) I am unable to lurk. It is also the time of year where I spend ALL day at my day job.
I will be back to posting normally next Tuesday, but it will be sporadic until then. Thank you for your patience.


Please excuse my slowness. I've had some lousy days and in the absence of a computer, this is really time-consuming. Everything should be on track by the weekend, however. Thanks for bearing with me.


OUR STATUS

I am very aware of the impending October 11 deadline. I finished building my computer this morning and hope to be able to post the maps by tomorrow. Thank you for your patience.


Okay, turns out I had that all wrong. The deadline is November 25, so we have plenty of time!

Good to read, was getting a bit worried myself.


I'll be away until late Friday or Saturday. On travel with limited Internet.


I feel physically ill about this.

Wow I have a lot of situational bonuses to Diplomacy with Seaweed.
But no boons to help prevent the party from certain death.

GM:
bear with me a moment: HD+Con+favored class+toughness
avg hp d8=5
5+1+1+1=8
8x7=56 hp (3 more for max hp at first level) 59 hp.

Did I miss something?
It looks like I didn't update hp when I leveled up my profile. If that looks correct to you, I should be at 2 hp. If I channel to heal this round, I should also be able to keep Dyson & Tytus up a bit better. if that looks correct please add 4d6 channel hp to everyone I can reach.


Nothing like the cold specter of death to make us all review our character sheets, eh?

That's fine. Everyone should pull out all the stops at this point. I'm going to revisit this tonight, so anyone with a correction like those above should get 'em in now!

Kargen doesn't have much to help stop the baddies, but he does have a boon to cast a fog cloud (and has a potion of invisibility for himself) if it helps us get away.

If Dyson is still up, another channel, plus a bomb from Lymwin, might clear things out. Still don't know what to do about the statue though. Lymwin, don't forget that they seem to be resistant to fire. Big 'might' though. Maybe we want to regroup first.

i could try another channel but based on the the fact that their base bonus to saving is +7 (even with the channel resistance bonus excluded) means my channel to harm undead is limited as damage. output goes.

If you pop the fog cloud so we have concealment i can channel to heal us and we can regroup and see where we can get from there....theoretically we could fall back and try to take the undead on a choke point.

scratch that Kargen would be out of range of a channel heal from my location. granted my weapon is sheathed and my shield is attached via weapon cord so it could be dragged along as we regroup.

I am at work so i cant check any of my boons till later tonight.

GM Note: Also just to make sure you did remove any of the undead's channel resistance to their will save vs the channel?

GM Note: is it possible to tell how badly the undead are hurt or no?


The ghuls have no channel resistance to exclude.

They are all moderately, but not gravely, wounded.


A tactical retreat may be your only hope!


I'm going to give Dyson another day to respond.

sorry about the delay posting now.

As an aside this is apparently my diplo and knowledge boon character (not one dps boon at all)

next round ill channel to heal and equip shield (standard and move action)
