Be careful with slayer, brvheart has some very strong opinions about them!
24 HP and mean with a falchion, that's quite the Sorcerer!
Provided I multiclass in the first place, of course.
If I did, I suppose bard, rogue, or ranger might be better choices.
Actually, Skald would be a good second class. Give him more "oomph" in combat, AND he could still cast spells while benefiting from his own ragee song.
But that's all maybes. Might happen in the future. But, for now at least, I'm satisfied with the way he's shaping up.
@ brvheart:
I levelled up Gruk already, if you want to check his profile for "oopsies".
I picked Raging Blood as his new feat (from ACG). That would give him a lesser bloodrage like a Fire Elemental bloodline for a bloodrager:
• Can add 1d6 fire damage to a melee weapon three times per day
• Also gets a lesser fire rage twice per day up to four rounds: +2 STR, +2 CON, but no WILL bonuses. The entry is unclear if that's four rounds per day, or four rounds twice per day.
If Raging Blood won't work for you, let me know and I can replace it with another feat.
I also added three (!) new spells for him. First, a cantrip (Arcane Mark) for a Human FCB bonus spell. Second, Magic Missile (good old dependable) for his first level spell. Third, the bonus bloodline spell of Burning Hands.
For his four new skill points: +1 Perception, +1 Bluff, and +2 Intimidate.
Hope I got the maths right for my profile update. Thanks!
Don't multiclass unless you planned to: easiest way to cripple a character. My two cents.
yeah, had no plan at the start, just wanted to play a barbarian, but that is sound advice, if we need a thief later I can always add a couple of levels...
blah, guess I will live with it, 3rd level here we come
I have heard nothing from Dolgrin since 8/14 so I am sending his character back to the castle with the lunatic. If he comes back he can rejoin later, but I cannot keep DMNPCing a character for weeks on end. You still have six people which was what I wanted for this game to start out with.
that makes good sense, can we send a large portion of the coins with him and keep more of the supplies he would have been carrying?
Sorry about wanting to hit every room, it's as much about the map being complete as is it not wanting to leave any creatures behind us, yeah I really am that anal, sorry!
Sounds good.
Well Mitleid level 3 Zen archer monk.
Feat: Deadly aim.
Skillpoints: Acrobatics +1, Perception +1 Sense motive +1 Swim +1
New Abilities:
Zen Archery (Ex)
At 3rd level, a zen archer may use his Wisdom modifier instead of his Dexterity modifier on ranged attack rolls when using a bow.
This ability replaces maneuver training.
Point Blank Master (Ex)
At 3rd level, a zen archer gains Point Blank Master* as a bonus feat, even if he does not meet the prerequisites.
This ability replaces still mind.
Hp [dice=]1d8+3+1[/ooc]
@Elatheras I once learned the very hard way, if a gm gives you a nudge you can think about it, but if he gives you a friendly piece of advice you just say "YES SIR!" ;-)
Not much new for a cleric. My Channel went up by one die, and I took Extra Channeling for two extra channels a day, giving me a total of 6 a day. Figure we will need it down here.
Also, picked up second level spells, which are pretty awesome.
Yeah there are just places ya don't wanna go in RA. At least at your current levels. Maybe not through that door, but there will be!
ok stuck with barbarian, can always add rogue the next level if you guys want me too.
HP +9=6+2+1
new feat: furious focus
+1 to base attack,reflex and will
two skills added, perception and swim
barbarian trait added: Trap sense +1
I'm fine with you taking some rogue levels, Ela. I think a level of rogue could definitely help a martial character in Rappan Atthuk. Any extra trap finding is good!
Furious Focus is a good one.
Is everyone leveled up?
I am! Are we doing a loot distribution right now, or waiting until the next time we stop?
Virgil is ready.
So who are we waiting on, just Irenicus?
not sure, we can move on and let him update when we run into something
I'm all levelled up. Hope the Raging Blood feat from ACG is okay for you. It seems a good choice with this melee-intensive setting.
I updated the RA loot spreadsheet to include 250 CP (wow!) and the 100 gp silver statuette recently found.
I've also assigned the +1 dagger to Irenicus, since it's one of the few weapons we've found that he can us.
@ Irenicus; if you don't want to hold on to that dagger, let me know.
I can use my scrolls as short swords and shields, which become magical with higher level spells, so keep it.
I finished the leveling I think just need to finish spell selection and write down the ones I bought in town on scrolls. Completely forgot until yesterday lol. How many days were we in town or castle/travelling before returning here?
I also have rope trick now for 3hr per day.
I would like everyone to add Dolgrin's daugher to their prayers. She is in treatment for cancer and will be through christmas. He did say her prognosis is good!
Oh goodness....thoughts to his entire family!
Will do. Let him know we are.
In my thoughts and prayers, Dolgrin.
Thoughts & Prayers as well...
of course, thoughts and prayers.
You have my best of wishes!
Since we're back at Zelkor's Ferry for a bit of R&R for Elathras and all, should we cash in the loot we found this last excursion?
According to the Treasury sheet, we've got a total of 6,178.72 GP. Which would include things like weapons selling at half value. So, if we sold,that would give us each 722 GP. And the same amount to the party coffers and the castle fund.
If we hang on to both magic daggers (Irenicus and I each are holding one) and the Magic spork (I think Virgil is holding that one), then the total prize plummets to 1,515.27 GP and each share will likewise plummet to 189 GP.
Anyway, that's the treasury maths while we're trying to find a way to bring back Elathras' nose!
I vote we keep the magic weapons for the time being. Until we find better magic weapons that is. Then we can sell the daggers with no worry.
What, you don't want to eat breakfast? Besides, it is a magical weapon for times when you HAVE to have something!
I don't mind holding on to the new magical gear.
Just wanted everyone to know how much of a dent it will make in the cash profits.
Ironically, we'll be so busy looking for more loot we'll be too busy to spend what already have lining our pockets.
I think we should also pop by the castle on the way back to the Mouth of Doom to let the lads know how we're doing.
Besides, I did want our little arms-smith,Gorbaz to make me a spiffy new great axe to look that much more stylish with. Should be ready by now.
I'm going to go ahead and write down 189 gold on my sheet. If this changes, let me know.
once Elathras is healed he will sell the guisamre, great flail, falchion, battle axe, six javelins and shortsword, then get a Lucerne hammer. He is enamored with the rapier and it will be his "close and personal weapon" along with the two daggers he just picked up and the longbow.
He will also post the 189 gp. probably cost more than that to get healed
We should be able to pool our resources out of the party coffers to help out Elathras. Or any other member of the party who is likewise in a bit of bother.
If anyone has no objections, I'll post these changes to the treasury spreadsheet:
• the flash rapier is with Elathras
• one +1 dagger each to Gruk and Irenicus
• the +1 spork is with Virgil
• each member gets a 189 GP payout out of the total prize of 1,515.27 GP
• the party coffers gets 189 GP
• the castle funds gets 189 GP, 2 SP and 7 CP
So, we're looking in pretty good shape for the common funds:
• Party Coffers: 645 gp 5 sp 0 cp
• Castle funds: 358 gp 6sp 4 cp
Please feel free to check the sheet here and let me know if I missed anything.
Are we sure we want to sell the spork?
What if it's a magic key to a door later on?
@ Virgil:
The spork and other magic items we just found were not up for sale.
That's why the cash pay out was a bit of a tiddler this time around. :o
Hadn't thought of the spork being a key or something. But it's not up for sale anyway, I've got it marked as in your possession on the treasury sheet.
Just wait. We'll be in the deepest, darkest corner of the dungeon, practically all hope lost: that spork is gonna save us.
True enough. Anything could happen here.
There's been enough oddities already.
Elathras just hasn't had a whole lot of luck all round.
Your luck has been mercurial with disarming traps.
Gruk has done way better in melee than sorcerers should be able to do.
On the whole, we're doing quite well for not getting killed. Much.
I think the first Dolgrin was the only death we've had. So far.
"You look rather sickly my freund." Bjorn does a heal check on Elathras
"I dunno whut is ailin ja. Perhaps we sweat it out? Build a big fire in his room and bring lots of blankets."
Elathras sells the four diamonds from the bugbear pouch for 1600 gp. and the weapons: 6 javelin 3 gp., Battleaxe 5 gp., Heavy flaif 7.5 gp., Falchion 37.5 gp., Guisarme 4.5 gp., Shortsword 5 gp that he has been carrying, and Purchases a Lucerne hammer for 15 gp. and the payment for Bjorn at 288, gp.
hey brv, how many XP for the exploding zombies?
Any chance you allow the spell masterwork transformation. It would lessen the impact of being really out of the way. And I mean at level 3 I guess everyone deserves some masterwork items:-)
Soon you will be rolling in items. RA is like that, you start out with less than what you expect then later you have a lot MORE. WBL has nothing to do with RA or any FGG product. Most of my mid to upper level players are now 2-3 times WBL, but they all started dirt poor.
Smile i do not mind saving money.. it is the being in iowa that hurts :-)
LOL, obviously Helikon has been to Iowa! Sorry about your luck, Helikon!
