Map

Special rules - Remnant of Iovo:

Each turn a character may move and try to do one special thing (or take a normal standard action)
Defuse the spirit
In order to tame the runaway magical effects here, you need to understand what is happening, interpret the inscribed runes around the basin, perform emergency repairs, and calm the spirit. This requires five checks using Diplomacy, Disable Device, Knowledge (arcana), Knowledge (religion), Linguistics, or Spellcraft. The DC is 15. Once a PC has successfully used one of these skills, future uses of that skill in this encounter is harder.
To do this you will need to be within ten feet of the pool, and it may attack you.
Rather (or in addition to) a skill check you may use an appropriate class ability or spell and I'll adjust the DC arbitrarily.

Distract the spirit
PCs who attempt to defuse the spirit are vulnerable to its attacks, and a PC can try to distract the spirit by succeeding at an Average Bluff, Intimidate, or combat maneuver check. Again the DC is 15. This would draw the sprit's attention to you rather than the people diffusing the spirit.
Alternatively you may try to hurt the spirit to draw its attention to you, make an attack or cast a spell as normal.

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. Add the actual gold amount if you want to save me looking it up...
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.
XP TRACK: Slow or Standard

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.

Given the unreliability of the site, I ask you all to make sure you have some Bot-Me instructions in your character profiles, ideally with dice tags for me to use for your more normal attacks and such.

If you want you can also send me your email, that will let me get hold of you if there are larger site problems and we need to take some drastic alternative action to keep the special running. Exactly what that would look like is a little unclear at the moment, but the Overseer is concerned enough to want us to be able to make plans if things do go toes up.

Idna always defaults to a tank role, interposing herself between monsters and vulnerable party members and using Stand Still to hold them at bay.

Sorry for bringing a level 3 to a 1-2 party-- there weren't any other slots open. Goldur's main contribution is skills, though, so anyone who's built for combat will definitely not feel outshone (at least not by me). But if anyone really doesn't want him around, I can always roll up something new.

Lasair is going to mostly stay at the back and fire his crossbow. Should we encounter a dense group of weaker creatures, Lasair will fire his Burning Hands. Against a BBEG that seems susceptible to mind-affecting effects, Lasair will use his Color Spray.

Magni keeps out of melee and blasts opponents with his spells (whatever seems more useful at the moment), left with no other choices he will resort to his sling.

Boards have been &^%$&^%$! the last 24h.
I'll hold off advancing this for another few hours to give folk a chance to do stuff. The last elemental is getting a right pasting, you don't think it will survive much more of it.

Does anyone speak Aquaran?

Whether you mean Aquan or Auran, I didn't see either on anyone's character sheets. I've not been having too many problems with the boards, but I also didn't try logging in more than a few times. Hopefully Paizo stops acting up soon and the special will start flowing.

Sigh... of course as soon as I try to post this, my network adapter stops working. If it can't be Paizo servers, it might as well be my hardware...

Hello Cosmonauts!

The lovely staff at Paizo gave me 15 ten-dollar gift certificates to distribute across the Cosmic Captive Special. Alas, we have 25 tables, so not every table can win one. In order to pick winners, I’m hosting a Cosmic Giveaway!

The Rules:

You cannot nominate yourself. You cannot pick me. Pick someone else (fellow player, GM, backup GM) who made your experience of Cosmic Captive fun! Tell me why!

You can submit only one name, but you can make a submission on the above link from now until July 9th.

Some names will likely get chosen because of the stories you tell me. Some may get selected in a random lottery. I’ll try to spread the love around to as many different tables as I can.

Hugs,
Hmm

Hi all, I'm just doing chronicles.

Xuan - I need your details, either in this thread on in a PM.

Mentys - can you double check your gold on entry. To have that much you would have had to do every single scenario up to this one out of tier and pretty much not spent a dime. I suspect there is a misplaced decimal point.

Everyone else, your chronicles are ready

here

Please look them over and double check them for mistakes.

Please note, you must select one of the Earth and Water boons, not both. As you didn't take the fire path, you are ineligible for that one.
