GM, fellow players,
I am super sorry but I really thought that the scneario that Andor was in had no encounter anymore and that we were finished. Unfortunately, that is not the case.
I have an alternative character that is a frontline dwarven archer level 11(Monk 3, Inquisitor 8). Frontline because he has feats that allow him not to provoke AoOs when shooting his arrow in melee and that threatens in melee because of his unarmed strike feat. Level 11 is quite high but I think it can work for a challenging adventure like this.
Would you want me to join you with this alternative or should I rather drop out so you choose one of the other applicants?
Depends on how much longer you feel the encounter will take. The pace we take with this group is...leisurely...for lack of a better word. By the time we finish with beginning RP, you might be finished. I am also getting married next week, followed by a honeymoon to Hawaii for 1.5 weeks, so we may have wiggle if you need it.

I was thinking about upgrading my Belt of giant strenght either to +4 bonus or to a +2 belt of physical might (STR and CON)
Honestly, more Con is not really needed. You're better off getting in more damage and dealing with the threats sooner.
@GM, I'm going to use 2 prestige to grab a scroll with 2 castings of Fly in addition to upgrading my headband to +4 and my belt to +2 Dex/Con. I had a bit of gold sitting around...
Anyone know if there are restrictions on making multiple purchases with prestige in a scenario? I think I remember that, but can't say for sure.
In any case, I will be picking up at least 1 scroll of Dimension Door with prestige, and 2 if I can.
I also grabbed the 2 scrolls of fly, so will be two prestige from last chronicle, and two from this one if I need to split it up. Otherwise, 6 total for 2 fly and 2 DD.

A question, GM: can a weapon receive multiple Bane effect (Demon&Devil bane), and at which cost?

Hi Brallenera, why do you have demon subtype at all? Why don't you just take evil subtype? Then you have bane vs. any outsider with the evil subtype which is much more than only demons, devils, kytons etc.

Because Bane works only on one specific type of creature (outsider: devil, or demon, or whatever else. Idem for Bane-Elemental, Bane works only against one type: fire or earth or water or air). Thats how I understand it anyway
A weapon that works against all evil (outsider or not) is a Holy weapon, way more costly

Of course this is in the rules. ;-)
[url=https://www.aonprd.com/MonsterSubtypes.aspx?ItemName=All]Please see a list of Subtypes here.[/rul]
There you see DEMON as a subtype and of course also EVIL as a subtype.
Now compare to the monster entries. Just for example:
Devil, Pit Fiend
LE Large outsider (devil, evil, extraplanar, lawful)
or
Demon, Succubus
CE Medium outsider (chaotic, demon, evil, extraplanar)
~ ~
So if you have an OUTSIDER (Evil) bane weapon it applies versus any creature with the Outsider (Evil) subtype which includes devils and demons and many more creatures.

Andor, if we exchange formulae, were we required to pay money, or was that only if doing so from copying NPC spellbooks?
Here the text
An alchemist can also add formulae to his book just like a wizard adds spells to his spellbook, using the same costs, pages, and time requirements. An alchemist can study a wizard’s spellbook to learn any formula that is equivalent to a spell the spellbook contains. A wizard, however, cannot learn spells from a formula book. An alchemist does not need to decipher arcane writings before copying them.
So it costs money. :-(
Writing a New Spell into a Spellbook
Once a wizard understands a new spell, he can record it into his spellbook.
Time: The process takes 1 hour per spell level. Cantrips (0 levels spells) take 30 minutes to record.
Space in the Spellbook: A spell takes up one page of the spellbook per spell level. Even a 0-level spell (cantrip) takes one page. A spellbook has 100 pages.
Materials and Costs: The cost for writing a new spell into a spellbook depends on the level of the spell, as noted on the following table. Note that a wizard does not have to pay these costs in time or gold for spells he gains for free at each new level.
Spell Level Writing Cost
0 5 gp
1 10 gp
2 40 gp
3 90 gp
4 160 gp
You should never be buying scrolls to copy from - at the most, you pay half the scribing cost for spellbook access from an NPC. https://www.aonprd.com/Rules.aspx?Name=Adding%20Spells%20to%20a%20Wizards%2 0Spellbook&Category=Arcane%20Magical%20Writing
Remaining 4th: 4/5, 3rd: 7/7, 2nd: 6/7, 1st: 6/7, Channel Energy: 5/5, Master of Pentacles: 1/1, Energy Body 9/9, Boots 3/3
Oh, I should make clear so it's posted here. I'm buying the Winged boots that we found with the Dragon (or another copy). But that will happen before the adventure. That takes almost all my cash.
Purchases look good. You would have had at most one hour to scribe something before the harbor master will send you out, the other scribing options will have to wait until you have more time.
My wedding is today, I will attempt the next post to get things Rolling tomorrow after post-wedding brunch. Hawaii trip starts Monday, will be sporadic for the following week.

I’m super sorry GM but I think I broke the map. I usually post via my phone and ppt in Google Drive does not work well. Have you ever tried using Google slides?

No problem, map is fixed. I actually am not the original GM for this campaign; I inherited when this group needed a replacement GM. The previous one used the Powerpoint for the tabletop, and I continued use of that for easy transition. I have been on the player side of Google Slides; I actually much prefer use of Roll20 for maps, but not everyone can load the program easily so I just defer to the Powerpoint.
HP:32 (-14 from con loss) | AC:15(19) (13/12(16)) | Saves:+2/+5/+8 |Initiative:+3|Perc:+3|Diplomacy/Bluff:+19/+16| Sense Motive: +12|+1 Longbow +7 Atk 1d8+1 dmg 20/20
It works for now, ill be able to place myself when im off work.
Roll20 is a delight. I enjoy the Dynamics shadows a lot. Easier to 'unnerve' my players, ha.
They should be able to finish their move action (e.g. keep moving if a space is available or move back through portal if someone keeps it open), as well as standard.
