About all you get for that is that it's some type of construct, and probably acts similarly to other such creatures (i.e. construct traits).
Hey, guys, I want to ask a favor. I need a couple (at least) people to run a playtest of a little project I'm working on. It's D20 (loosely Pathfinder) based, Superhero genre, but not M&M or any other hero system. Quick explanation is players will create normal humans who are potential super-heroes, and I will place them in a situation where they gain a suite of super-powers, plus a chance to use those powers. If people are having fun after the test, I might turn it into a regular campaign.
Any takers?

Eh, I'm in far too many games, far more than a mere mortal can handle. Might as well see if I can get the super powers to go with it. I'll give it a crack.
Sure, why not?
Okay, 3 people will work quite well for the test. Thanks guys. I'm gonna whip up a thread for it and link it here. For now, don't think too far ahead; think only about a normal human, doing a day-to-day job. We'll deal with char gen in the new thread. Worrying about "builds" won't happen until after the first session when everyone gets their power suite.
Malavine should be done. Not much to do this level.
Also, I should point out my campaign trait allows me to sell Tomb Plunder at 60% of the going rate, so...yay the extra 10%.
Is anyone keeping track of all the loot we've gotten, or shall I start up a Google Doc tomorrow?
Well, if you're the one with all the connections... ;)
Hickle would inspect the items for anything that seemed overtly magical, and the following day he'd try to figure out what that ring did if Payn or Zelda don't get around to it.
+2 strength, +2 strength from raging, +2 for two-handing, +3 two-handed power-attacking, +1 from Champion spirit bonus, and +2 from Champion seance boon = +12
Bloodragers + Medium Spirits = More ridiculous than I expected :-P
Also, do we get max, average, or rolled HP on level up?
Also, Rando, what's your feeling on Summoners?
I've only ever seen one played once. I've heard they can be OP, but that the Unchained version is "nerfed." So I really have very little opinion on them personally; if you're asking if I'd allow on, I believe I would.
Also, do we get max, average, or rolled HP on level up?
Average or rolled, your choice each level.

Noted. I'll take that into account.
I personally have a list of everything I think you took, if you need me to post that for reference, I can.
I'll need to rebuild Hickle's sheet before I update, since I never got around to doing that after the Great Mythweavers Purge. But, I should be good to go in a few days!
No problem. The next section of the module is RP heavy anyway, related to the returning party at Tooth and Hookah.
So my take is:
85 gp, 46 sp, 30 cp (real coin)
cestus with citrine hilt (61 gp sale value)
two vials of alchemist’s fire (22 pg sale value)
hammer and 3 pitons (eh, 2 gp, close enough)
Tapestry, 220 gp value
2nd Tapestry, 220 gp value.
Burial Mask, 550 gp value.
1050 gp worth of ancient Osirian coins and gems (real value)
a potion of lesser restoration (165 gp)
an ornate pendant worth 220 gp
a magic suit of padded armor of bolstering (550 gp sale value)
a normal metal helmet (26 gp to a collector).
ring of insight (+2 on chosen skill for 5 minutes) - Keep?
skins (55 gp to a collector)
chariot (110 gp, allow diplomacy check)
chest with gold inlay (22 gp)
masks x 4 (82 gp each)
Hmmm... I reccomend keeping at leastthe alchemist's fire (Hickle finds their use to be, well, useful), and the potion of lesser Restoration.
I assume the armor has a +1 bonus as well? Or is it simply bolstering? Either way, it might come in useful for the party depending on armor proficiency.
The ring, is that only one use? A per day thing? And does it already have an assigned skill, or is it capable of being attuned to one? I've never heard of a ring of insight before and can't locate it online to see what all it does.
I assume the armor has a +1 bonus as well? Or is it simply bolstering?
Using the Automatic Bonus Progression alternate rule, which was agreed upon, it does not count as +1 but, like any armor, can be attuned at 4th level. Per our house rules, the bolstering won't count against the +1 attunement bonus.
Oh! I'd forgotten about that, been some time.
Hickle should likely grab the Ring, too - it'll be a nice boost to Disable Device and such.
Traps...traps everywhere...
It would indeed be such, I'm still just wondering what all the specifics about it are is all.
The ring, is that only one use? A per day thing?
Sorry, yes. Per day. You assign the skill each time you activate it.
I've never heard of a ring of insight before and can't locate it online to see what all it does.
I'm just a crazy DM throwing new items your way.
Hmm... Not so great for Hickle, but at least Shmick's getting some good numbers.
Okay, so far no one has claimed any items except the ring of insight, correct? If no one wants any of the rest I'll calculate the loot totals and give you a cash amount each. We can assume that you do the selling during the day before the party at the Tooth and Hookah that night.
Feel free to make any purchases you would like once you get the amount. Since I doubt equipment is going to play a big role in the RP scene about to start, I'm going to go ahead and jump to the next night.
Also, if Hickle or someone else wants to try a diplomacy roll to boost the value of the restored chariot, I did say I would allow that.
The rings, vials, and potion. I suspect someone else should take the potion though, if only so I dont feel like I'm hoarding our spoils ;p
Also, Rando, I had made Hickle with being our item crafter in mind, but I wonder if I'll even have time to do such?
I believe I can easily work some time in between Book 1 and Book 2, and probably during Book 2. There can be some limited time in this book, as well; you'll receive your next exploration assignment soon, but there's really no deadline to have it completed, so you can take a few days here and there, so long as it is not unreasonably long.
I'm not much of a diplomancer, if Malavine or Kephyr would be willing to haggle the chariot though?
Working on Hickle's stuff now, he should be done soon.
And finished!
Full Metal Lonely Alchemist...
Er, I mean, S'all good Atlas! You do you, mate.
Sorry, everyone, sorry.
I'm on FMLA right for the birth of my third child, AND I decided that now is a great to go back to school and get my MBA. (I didn't say that I had a lot of good ideas. =p)
Should be back to better posting next week.
Sorry.
Sent you a PM related to the situation and our previous conversation. Let me know what you think.

Family and Medical Leave Act. Or Fully Munchable Lettuce Attack. One or the other.
Mummy and baby comes first, so no worries on being busy.
Kept Treasure:
alchemist fire x 2
ring of insight (Hickle)
potion of lesser restoration
706 gp, 10 sp, 6 cp EACH
I added Malavine's 10% bonus to must of it, so you might have gotten a few gp more than intended since some of that was actual coin and would not get a resale bonus. If any of you come up with better numbers, feel free to question, within reason.
It's been a bit slow recently with at least two of our players goign through the joys of Real Life, but I'm sure we'll be up to speed again soon. ^^
Zelda, I'm considering having Hickle ask her to construct a firearm as part of Shmick's arsenal. Think we could do that?
Nature or Arcana, for this thing?
Counts as a "Magical Beast," so yes.

Hi there!
Okay, whew, yes. Sorry, I was gone for a while, but I'm back now. ^_^
Yes, I'll be swapping out characters. Payn fits best in an anti-hero, "gritty reboot" kind of setting as someone walking the line between the light and the dark. In this light and airy normal adventure, she just wasn't working out.
So here's a charismatic UC summoner! =D I've never played one, and I'm looking forward to taking it through its paces.
Read the background. Intriguing relationship there. Welcome to the group, Anton. You'll find your way into House Pentheru shortly.
no problem, thanks for letting us know. post as you can.
I'll be sad to have my party of babes ruined by another dude in the mix, but I think I'll live. He seems charming enough after all.
Oh, and you've never played summoners before huh? I suppose all your other arcane casters don't count? ;)

"Sweet Jesus our reality no longer exists and I still can't get away from you. What have I ever done to deserve such a fate that yeah no I probably deserve this. Dosn't mean I can't still complain about it though."

I've heard tell the paranormal activities in Arzata, NM predated the Mi-Go invasion in Cavalier, IL but a year or so...
You know, I'm not sure how I'd feel about those two games being interconnected like that, but they're your setting.

"OH hey bro, 'Sup?" Brian says as he comes and gives Dave a high-five. "Hey, we got a mega-za an' a case a' dew all set if you wanna come over an chill--"
Brian suddenly stops talking. There is no sound.
"Oh, hey, I gotta run bro, my dog's been sick, but you can totally come an' hang. Totally."
The man runs off, and the shadow of a great eagle seems to follow him.

So many realities...so little times...
