Rappan Athuk set in Nirmathas, Golarion

Game Master baldwin the merciful

I'll get an update done over the weekend.

I'm not feeling well, I'll get a post up tomorrow.

feel better!!

The better you feel, the better for all ;-) Get Better.

I'm going to be offline till tomorrow late afternoon or the evening... work.

Feel free any additional interaction with the goblins.

I'm not going to be on tonight, I'll pick it up tomorrow.

I've a busy morning, so I won't be online till the afternoon. I'll update then.

Karnog - the master of the treasure log - and others. When you get to the the goblin city several thing to note: 1. Any non-small item sold by a non-goblinoid is sold at 45% not 50% of it's value. 2. All small items are sold at the normal 50% value rate. 3. I'll need a diplomacy roll with when dealing with each vendor.

Influencing Goblins in Greznek

The goblin city details is unusual for The Dungeon of Graves in that it is not necessarily a dangerous place for the PCs to explore. In fact, depending upon how the PCs decide to deal with the locals, it could serve as a place to rest, prepare spells, and even trade in some hard-won treasures. Should the PCs grow hostile, however, Greznek, like all of Rappan Athuk, quickly becomes inhospitable and deadly. This is a roleplaying level. If the PCs take the time to get to know the natives, they may learn of a curse that has befallen the city.

Fair warning...the level of commerce here will keep me interested due to my deity, but otherwise, I will not be very interractive or much help, with a race my character views a dangerous monstrosity and an enemy.

Karnog will have a hard time with it too with Torag, being LG, and a dwarf. Even being LG and a holy person/pally your deity has no deathwish for you and understands the greater purpose of the limited association.

That being said, I understand the purpose is to reload and upgrade gear, so unless you all do some foolish things you should be able to accomplish your goal. There is also a may which I will explain with your goblin guide on how you all can actually be semi-heroes as long as you don't flaunt your deities/LG alignment.

Malcolm I see you have varisan as language I'll let you swap that out for undercommon if you want. role wise you would have learned the tongue of the enemy.

Feli I'll let you swap one of your languages you don't really use if you like maybe the sylvan. although the abysaal will be spoken by some of the more elite creatures you see.

The rest of you don't really have languages (which you haven't used) to spare or swap out form a quick review.

Well how close to levelup are we ;-)
I think I will do the swapping and relearn sylvan as soon as we levelup ;-)

Does anyone have the link to the post when I had you level up last. I thought I had you level up in the spider/advanced troll cavern.

Sounds good.

I can see you leveled up Sept 29th to 8th level. I could have swore it was after that but that did not happen. Apparently you rested up when you were corned in the spider cavern back in late Sept. Afterwards you fought the three advanced trolls and headed to 9A dragon/Gug level, which leads to the goblin city.

That being said everyone can level to 9th now.

Yay

Grung has orcish

He will be grumpy but won't look for a fight

Dm are those gems I traded for worth anything?

Big thing I get at this level is my armor counts as it is fortified, and I finally get weapon training.

Took Greater Shield Focus

1d10 ⇒ 8 hp

i lied about orcish. That was an old build i had of him and I forgot.

Woa nice

Yay!

Level 9 karnog is happy dwarf.

Will have full level up later.

High points : craft (armorsmithing), Linguistics (undercommon) craft (weaponsmithing)

Unless craft (blacksmithing suffices...in which case, 2 more in that.

Big spells : fabricate, raise dead, breath of life.

1d8 ⇒ 7 hp

Yay

Grung has orcish

Dm are those gems I traded for worth anything?

yes but your roll wasn't that good if I recall.

Ultimately they are worth gp: 5d100 ⇒ (84, 91, 85, 81, 6) = 347 in value.

holy hell. that ws a good trade! I was kind of expecting them to be worth like 10 silver or something.

my roll was good enough to know they weren't glass, but not to know for sure, I figure we get someone to explain to me their value.

I'll keep the lawful stupid characters from killing anybody, don't worry.

I'll level Des up when I have some time.

one of the other party members could have examined them for you.

"Hehehe stuupid dwarfy traded guud burn stuff for pretty pebbles that's everywhere."

Almost done leveling here.
Highlights are tongues and crushing despair.
Also the important skills are raised, (diplo,Inti, Sense motive and Perc)
Feat Lingering performance for another few rounds of Bardic performance. And... inspire greatness.

All leveled except HP...what are we doing for that, again? No big advancements this level for Malcolm.

Roll Hp but reroll 1's

hp: 1d10 ⇒ 5

HP: 1d8 ⇒ 4

HP: 1d6 ⇒ 5

I was thinking of taking leadership ...I can't remember if that's OK in this campaign. Meathead maybe? Just running it by ...I don't have my heart set on it.

Hmmmm. Probably going to go with spell focus for some DC boosts.

OK, so more hit points, better Reflex and Fort saves, Know (Dungeoneering), Intimidate, and Spellcraft go up. Kalim's anatomy is starting to get weird, giving 25% chance of avoiding crits and sneak attacks. And some delicious new spells:

Hypnotic Pattern! Hold Person! Black Tentacles! Aaaaaand a DC 22 Phantasmal Killer (as Kalim summons images of Those Beyond the Void)!

HP: 1d8 ⇒ 4

Desmond is ready to go.

Ooops, DC 21. Still, pretty scary.

Leadership does complicate matters a bit with followers and posting.

Rappan Athuk lists the following for the goblin city Greznek

Base Value: 1,000 gp; Purchase Limit: 5,000 gp; Spellcasting: 5th
Minor Items: 3d4 items; Medium Items: 1d6 items; Major Items —

Excluding writing (scrolls, books, and so forth) most items under under 5,000 GP will be available. Goblins fear writing, but if there is something you really want or need, let me know and I'll see if something is there on the black/white market. Remember good items will be white market items also.

Let me know what you are looking for and I'll see if they have have it.

Wands: Bless(1), Cure light wounds, Cure medium wounds, any with 1-5 charges left.

Bless will be white market material (get it white as opposed to black market. It's all a matter of point of view.)

Hmm I would guess some of the smaller races would use it gladly. Makes swarmtaktic easier. I mean you can have a blessing from lamashtu ... too ;-)
Bless weapon... thats diffrent

Loot Disbursement

Assuming we sell all the various weapons/armor which noone has claimed as of yet.

Also keeping all potions and scrolls.

Potions :

Selling everything else nets us:

48,363.05 GP total, 8,060.51 GP each for equal shares

huzzah. and we can get more gold ore!!! muahahahaha[/ooc]

Sweet, thanks Karnog.

Could I get some of those cure potions? I chugged through mine during the gug fights.

I'm also interested in: Shield of Faith, Sanctuary, Expeditious Retreat, and Haste. Just listing what Des could make use of.

Let me know what gear you are looking for.

There are lots of cure potions.

14 CLW
14 CMW
8 CSW
6 CCW

2 expeditious retreat
1 haste
1 shield of faith

Grung is interested in upgrading his ring of Deflection +1, his cloak of resistance+1, and in obtaining an amulet of NA.

obviously this is not somewhere to get enchantments added to his armors etc. so just looking to purchase the better models.

I'd love to get a ring of protection and a sorcerer's robe.

Personally I'm looking for:

Masterwork tools (woodworking, stoneworking, blacksmithing, armorsmithing, weaponsmithing) or some item/set which will allow their use.

Raw materials for 1 large suit of plate mail and 1 large greatsword (presents for Meathead once I can fabricate and masterwork transformation them)

Upgraded shield (+2 or better heavy shield, or +3 or better light/buckler)

Metamagic rods (extend, reach in particular)

Anything that will increase Cha or crafting skills (especially if something that will increase all craft(x) skills)

yes an upgrade to my shield would be good as well
