Roles at the Opera:

Leading Male (Sheng) There are two leading male roles for the performance, the General and the Monkey King.
The General wears a long beard and fights with a wooden sword (1d8 nonlethal) and armor (treat as splint mail).
The Monkey King wears an elaborate monkey mask. The Monkey King is portrayed as an acrobat and trickster and is permitted to cast spells.

Leading Females (Dan) There are two leading female roles, the Warrior Woman and the Wizened Crone.
The Warrior Woman wears full armor (treat as splint mail) and peacock feathers, and fights with a dulled, bladed polearm (1d8 nonlethal).
The Wizened Crone wears long robes and walks with a cane. She is permitted to cast spells.

Painted Faces (Jing) The Jing role represents a strong and forceful male. The two choices for this performance are the Noble Warrior and the Cruel Bandit.
Noble Warrior wears red face paint and full armor (treat as splint mail), and wields a large club (1d10 nonlethal).

The Cruel Bandit wears blue face paint and wields a long wooden knife (1d4 nonlethal), specially balanced to allow a capable individual to make nonlethal sneak attacks with it.

Clowns (Chou) (2) These humorous characters are allowed to speak with the audience in order to make jokes at their opponents’ expense. Chou are also permitted to cast spells. Male Chou identify their characters by painting wide white circles around their eyes. Female Chou paint their faces red with black circles about the eyes. Clown costumes do not include weapons; however, Chou can carry and wield a broom or stick (treat as an improvised weapon dealing 1d6 nonlethal damage), claiming it to be whatever weapon they desire for the sake of performance and comedic value.

Just to confirm, the new monk is the pink or cyan guy on the east edge, right?

"Another one? Sheesh. They're like rats."

Deluge moves over closer to the Monk but not within easy striking distance. Them monks pack a whallop when they get to work up all their mojo.

The "Kiang Zhen" rushes forward, swings her big honking oni weapon with one hand while twiddling her claws with the other and repeating the magic words she used six seconds before.

spellcraft DC 16:
Faeria burns her arcane bond for the day to cast every GM's favorite color spray vs. monk #2 (DC 17).

He had a great club.

rounds: 1d4 ⇒ 3
This monks too is taken by surprise. However, unwounded, he fights on.

To make things faster you can all post four rounds of actions (5 for Victoria). He is flat footed being stunned. Victoria, for the first round he won't be flat footed vs you and he is an able opponent, so no worries about honor there. For reference, his AC for these rounds is effectively 12

The team descends on the poor monk, and Deluge gives him a right Whopping with the druids enchanted staff.

The action pauses for a moment while a third monk breaks off to keep you away from the master.

Well done everyone./

Just surviving is quite a challenge at times and you all did a fantastic job. I wasn't tracking how many wand charges you went though, but I think the local temples will be doing a good business in replacement items over the next few days!

I'll try to get chronicles out ASAP.

We also have a voucher winner in our table. Hurrah I *think* is is Victoria (wow, boon and a voucher, you did well!) but Shifty will be confirming if I got that right over the next few days.

Without warning, the entire cavern begins to shudder. Atop the dais, Sifu Xho Nuo’s slight form begins to glow with a soft, white light. Slowly, without breaking his meditative stance, his body rises, levitating a few feet above the dais.

Then without warning, a burst of bright energy ripples from his body, striking all of his disciples and causing them turn gaseous and explode in a shower of rose petals. The Emissary remains motionless, amidst the fluttering petals, waiting for his new champions to claim their victory.

The cavern is thrown into chaos from the ripple of magical energy as the Emissary finally allows touch, and the assembled horde rushes over each other to get to the top of the dias! From the throng of warriors, a single arm reaches forth and touches the Emissary - It is Davorin of the Silver Crusade!

Slowly, the Emissary opens his eyes and his body unfolds. Standing before the crowd, he bows graciously and his mouth curls into a contented smile.
“I’m truly touched by your efforts; this has been a stellar competition thus far. To those who have fallen, I give my heartfelt regret and sympathy—however, I seek only the greatest warriors"

“To the rest of you now standing before me... Congratulations! You have all succeeded in qualifying for the illustrious Ruby Phoenix Tournament. But be forewarned— tonight’s competition was mere child’s play compared to what is to come"

“Still, for the moment you should celebrate, for yours was a victory not easily won. But waste not too much time in celebration, for soon enough you must travel to Goka on the western coast of distant Tian Xia to compete against other competitors from across Golarion of your skill... or better. And for this, you must be ready.”

Upon his parting words, Sifu Xho Nuo vanishes in a puff of pale white smoke.

"That guy is..."

This is a CORE table. Please check, and then DOUBLE CHECK that the character you put down is registered as a CORE character with Paizo.

To make my life easier when it comes to filling in chronicles, if you could each put in a single post with:

If you are currently in a game or expect to apply a GM chronicle before play, hold off putting in the information.

Chronicle: What chronicle number this is for the character
History: What scenarios has the character completed? (or been credited with); any other chronicles (special boons etc)
Name:(the player) real name (as you have it appear on your chronicle sheets)
AKA: Character name
Faction: Your faction
PFS: # for the character
XP: starting XP,
Prestige: Starting prestige
Fame: Starting Fame
Gold: Starting wealth you bring into the adventure. This should be the total on your previous chronicle. If you want to buy any new stuff... see further on.
Day job: include the roll or that you don't have one. If you want to use a reroll at the end just note here you may want to use a reroll. If you don't include a roll I'll be assuming you take ten. Spend: If you want to buy anything before the scenario starts (apart from your initial 150gp if you are a new character) include it here. This will appear in the "items bought" and/or "items sold" part of the chronicle.

Try to hold off actual discussion here until we have one post per character with those details (makes life easy for me to make the chronicles for you all at the end).

Please add an Icon for your character to the map. If you don't know how, let me know and I'll help.

You should be level 1 or level 2

Great, six checked in!

If the last three of you can dot into game play that would be fantastic. Word of warning, I'll be awol on day one of the special, poor timing, but likely travelling. I'll make sure you are not adversely affected because of it though.

Those of you who shared a table with me in the last special (hmm, hard to remember, but I think at least one of them came back :-) will remember I had to go away for a week in the middle, and we still managed to get through everything in the end. Aside from the first couple of days, I should be around for the whole time.

If YOU are away, please, just drop us a line and let us all know. RL happens, and if we know you will not be posting we can NPC you for a round or two. Pace is really important in the multi-tables, and having a non poster puts the whole group at a bit of a disadvantage.

Normally I'm pretty relaxed about non posting, but to keep up the special pace, I'll be putting you on delay (or someone can suggest an alternative action) probably a shade under 24h after each of my posts.

A note on time zones. Shifty who is running this is based in Australia. I'm in New Zealand, so a few hours ahead of him. If he posts as Overseer first thing in the morning, I should be able to post pretty quickly after him most days. If he does it last thing at night, there will be a gap of many hours. I know most of you are US based, so there is often a gap between my GM posts and your player posts - so don't worry about that.

Single most important thing - Have Fun.

How do you ninja-stealth dot a thread? Inquiring minds want to know!

let me guess though, post and delete?

Yep, you post then delete. You can check who is in on Characters or Players as you go there when you post on Gameplay but not when doing so in Discussion ;-)

And we are off... please post in gameplay.

Sir Ninn, if you can put in a post here with your details that would be helpful.

An ooc explanation would be nice. I think a lot of us assumed that we would be one of those that grabbed a ruby, and I, personally, assumed that would be what brought us together as a team. but maybe not so much. Did Deluge snag a gem or does that require a roll? Also, there was no 'private' mission briefing where we met, is that correct? If not, is there any reason for us to help each other out since we have not met and are probably not wearing pathfinder emblems openly?

Okay, slightly behind the eight ball on this one as I was away during the settling in phase.

You do know each other, and were at the VC briefing at the start (the first overseer post is the briefing, where he tells you to find some accommodation and then head down to the pub).

You are expected to operate together as a team.

In the "surprise" round, those with combat reflexes could attempt to grab a ruby before it hit the ground.

Subsequent to that you get to make perception checks, but as you managed to grab one at the outset, one of the competitors basically tries to do a claim jump on you. After he is dealt with you can try and get some more if you wish.

Or, if people want, they can make perception checks instead of helping defend your ruby.

Are the Perception checks move actions or standard actions?

Lantern Lodge

SFS 05-99 BftB

IF you want to make a perception check instead of taking an action against your attacker you can do it as a standard action.

I saw that but since it is a multi-table special and since all the tables received that intro, I figured all the tables characters would have been there for a large room meeting. I guess there were 10 different small room meetings with the same intro.

You were broken into teams after that.

The gathering of the pathfinders by the Decemvirate is supposed to bring groups together as they address all of us at once. Like, there's a hundred of us in the meeting, but we kind of just look at the guys beside us and are like, "hey, we're all pathfinders, we should team up."

Not the best way to "bring the table together" as it just kind of assumes we are going to ignore motivations and all, but hey, it's what we got.

Blame your GM for being away during the soft settling in part.

Nah, it's more how the scenario is set up. It just kind of assumes that you, out of a group of hundreds, randomly decide to team up with no motivation.

But I swear I remember you, Gregory from "We Be Goblin5". The one where they made the number '5' into the letter 's' so that it would fit their naming convention. I though it a bit much, but....


VC - Sydney, Australia

Just doing the rounds - all seems to be going along ok :) Cool stuff!

Yeah like all PFS events, there is a certain level of 'must have been the next five guys in the line', rather than well composed and purpose-built teams. It's not like the cool crime caper movies where they are always looking for 'just the right guys'....!

Thanks Granta.

Is that Quain Martial Artist a GM boon chronicle from somewhere?

Silver Crusade

Tian Ancestry, Sinscarred, Student of Runes, and Sacred Trust are all convention (non-GM) boons. Basically, I got sick of holding onto them, waiting for the perfect character, so I just put all of them on my next core creation.

I am not sure I am understanding the map layout. Can Elneth move into the position I placed her in the map?

Lantern Lodge

SFS 05-99 BftB

I asked about this in the GM forums. The map and scenario are totally unclear about this. So I ruled there is just a single exit from the pipe where the arrow is. So she could exit and move (with a jump check, DC 6), but would get an AOO from yellow and green while doing so.

Hey all, I was without wifi for a while there. I switched providers and they told me there wouldn't be a lapse in service... Then I got a lapse in service because they had to run cable to my block. I'm getting everything updated now.

Some of you have noticed I have put up a spoiler with Opera roles.

That hasn't been explained in game yet, but as we have a day's breathing space I figured now would be a good time for you to look through them and choose which roles you would like. Each role can only be taken by one person, apart from the clowns which will have two costumes.

Deluge will be a Chao if he can use shillelagh on his broomstick. I'm thinking not though. In that case he will take whatever role is left over.

I see no reason why an improvised club cannot have shillelagh cast on it. Does Deluge normally memorise shillelagh?
