Redelia's Ironfang Invasion (Inactive)

Game Master Redelia

I would be interested, yes.

Are any of you guys interested in PFS credit? This AP was sanctioned during our break, and the way they're sanctioning APs recently I can issue old chronicles when I issue the first one after the sanctioning. I can issue them to some but not all of you if some are not interested. I also will have to look and see when you joined to see which chronicles you get.

If you could give credit/chronicle for this it would be awesome, thank you!

I'll find someone to apply to when we know the levels.

okay I added the +8 to favored class bonus so...how is my HP supposed to be 71 again?

I'd be interested in pfs credit for the parts I was/will be there for.

Hi everyone... good to see you again.

I'm not interested in PFS credit, thanks.

Xakroo, Redelia's HP rules for this game are that you take the better of the average HP for the die rounded up (i.e. 6 on a d10) and the actual roll. With that, the max HP at 1st level, your one die roll above 6 and your Con bonus your HP are 10 + (6x6) + 9 + 8 = 63. Adding your favored class bonus makes 71.

Good to see you again Kwiazy.

wait wait wait, I'm confused on where the second 6 comes from. I get the rules of the better of the average HP for the die roll is 6, but where did you get the 6x6?

You're 8th level. At first level your HP are maxed. At one other level you rolled a 9 for HP. That leaves 6 levels (of your total 8 levels) for which you have the 6 HP per level. I don't think I can explain it any more clearly than that.

okay I think I get it

got it all fixed, thanks. sometimes I'll just be a complete idiot and have things fly over my head

Poxy is retiring, but will be replaced with some other demented goblin.

I'd love PFS credit! Thanks!

Also: I'm back! I hope you guys had a great weekend.

Welcome back, two of the craziest goblins I've ever met!

For some reason this thread is refusing to show up in my active campaigns. Even with a re-dot and delete.

Let me look at the settings, Petrahk. If the GM has removed you, you can't add yourself back by dotting in again.

HP L8: 1d12 ⇒ 8 Taking another level of Dragon Disciple

Question, do we want boring/bog-standard, or flavorful-fun-related to things we've done as far as 'new gear'?

Leveling:

HP: 1d8 ⇒ 6
BAB up to +6/+1
Fort and Will both add +1
+1 third and fourth level spells per day
Ability Score increase: Charisma
+6 skill ranks: diplomacy, perception, linguistics, dungeoneering, Religion (2)

She also buys a +1 Adaptive Flaming longbow

GASP!

I just realized I forgot to put a rank into Craft (Hats)! This must be fixed! Instead of one of her ranks in perform (song) Trinket will put that rank into Craft (Hats).

Whoo!

All is now well in the world.

HP: See above post
BAB up to +5
Fort and Will both add +1
+1 1st, 2nd, 3rd level spells per day, +1 1st, 2nd, 3rd level spells known (Unseen Servant, False Life, Resist Energy: Communal)
Skill points: Fly +10 (2 ranks), Intimidate +8 (1 rank), Diplomacy +10 (2 ranks), K: Nature +4 (1 rank)
Ability Score Increase: Strength +1 (to 14)

Above is provisional pending approval, willing and able to adjust things as necessary.

Kryptyk has ranks in craft (traps). Is there any feasible way to put that skill to use? Can I make traps before hand and set them up later in the appropriate terrain? Is there any good reference on the cost of making traps?

I want to say that there's a whole section about trap-making in... Ultimate Magic? As well as maybe Ultimate Wilderness?

Yeah, there's DEFINITELY some source on traps in Ultimate Magic (there's a whole ranger archetype that replaces their magic for trap building). and it wouldn't surprise me if Ultimate Wilderness would talk about that too. And you can look at any source involving kobolds (I think Kobolds of Golarion is the best one) talks about traps as well, cause apparently kobolds are supposed to be REALLY good at traps

I'd like to make this work, if you have any ideas how. I can tell you trapmaking is more likely to fit in well later in the book.

Jynnjun has craft (traps) too. Without craft wondrous item, learn ranger trap feats or the cryptic class by Dreamscarred Press it's a bit limited though; slow, expensive and ineffective vs. enemies, and there's nothing about trapping for food.

yeah. The base cost for a trap is 1000 gp x CR. It does say that simple traps such as snares and pits would be cheaper (GM discretion) than complex trapped rooms.

Hit dice for Dripple:
hit dice if better than 5: 7d8 ⇒ (8, 1, 2, 4, 5, 5, 8) = 33

+6

Right now, I don't think you guys need me, so I'm just here watching and grinning. When your goofing around in characters slows down or enough of you sound ready to move on, I'll do that.

In-character - why did the gameplay thread not show new posts to me when the discussion thread did show them? That's why I've been silent BTW. I didn't know people were posting.

You had not posted there in long enough that it's the same thing as if you had clicked the x after '4 new'.

When did that become a thing and how long does it take?

It's always been true, and it's something like 2 or 3 months. It's the same mechanism by which a campaign moves to inactive if the GM disappears and the campaigm moves itself to everyone's previous campaigns after a few months of nobody posting.

On a different campaign I didn't get notices of new posts to the gameplay thread all day and I last posted on Saturday.

That's a different issue, then.

Sorry about this. I know it is bad timing.

I am moving to Texas next week, and won't be able to post for sure Monday-Thursday, and it just depends on what is going on whether I will be able to post the rest of the week. Hopefully will be back up and normal on Monday the 29th latest, since I start my new job that day, so things have to be resolved at least that much.

Please bot me as needed.

Thanks for letting us know, Alaka.

I would be interested in a couple of 'shakedown' things but also more interested in the journey and what we're seeing as we're travelling -- ie, the impact if any of the Invasion.

That way it has a bit more of a personal face, and if we can help folks along the way it has a lot of oomph narratively?

Also, I'm good if everyone else is with taking it 'slow' until Alaka gets back to net-connectivity?

That's nice of you. :) Seriously though, I don't expect you guys to slow down for me. I am refraining from voting since I won't be really participating for a week, but whatever you choose I am sure that I will read it and get a good laugh at the antics of the team when I return. :)

OK, it sounds like we have a consensus that you guys would like to do not only the story combats, but also the flavorful other combats on the way, especially if I can give them more flavor or story impact. The next post (or maybe several, this may be so long I break it into pieces) is going to be too long or complicated for me to post until tomorrow.

Also, I may be increasing the difficulty of combats a little from what's written, considering that right now you have 8 characters in an adventure that's written for 4. I'll try adjusting it a bit, and we can talk about if you'd like it adjusted up or down a little.

sounds good!

sorry for not reading and replying to the posts today... Emergency medical procedure this morning... and I'm in a lot of pain... the meds are making me loopy. I will try again later.

Here's praying that you get better Kwiazy!

If this is related to some of what you mentioned on Discord, I hope you feel better soon, Kwiazy.

Hope you feel better soon Kwiazy!

Apologies for not posting Petra's camping gear yet, been a bit swamped with work and trying to unwind from it.

Actually unrelated to previous issues, Redelia... I lost a crown yesterday, and when I took it in to the dentist today, he said the tooth underneath was too far gone to save... He had to do a long and complicated extraction, which included splitting the tooth in two and then pulling out the pieces (which further disintegrated into more pieces during the process)... then he did a bone graft (for the implant which will follow in a few months). All in all, it took about 2 hours and I am in a lot of pain... my jaw aches from all the manipulation and pressure, and the actual extraction site hurts a lot too... It's all very swollen and I'm using a cold compress and taking a lot of pain meds to keep it from being unbearable. I hope it feels better by tomorrow so I can get off these meds and be able to concentrate and read with some modicum of comprehension.... thanks for your well-wishes. As with most such matters, of course, 'this too will pass'.

Losing a tooth is no picnic.

Oh my, that sounds horrible, Petrahk. Yes, that would be much worse... this was not put off, though I wish I had gone to an oral surgeon... After what I experienced, next time I will bite the bullet, pay the extra $500 and go to an oral surgeon so I can be asleep during the process. Anyway... it's 4am here, and I'm awake. The swelling has gone down some and the pain is manageable now. I've caught up in the gameplay thread and now have to go 'shopping' for camping gear...

ps: I love Trinket's pajamas and her fluffy pillow... hehe

*bows*

Sorry for not shouting another alarm.

Felt it was more important to get airborne and try to see what is coming from above than announce Petrahk's location because shouting isn't getting people up.

Hey guys, I’m going to have a crazy busy weekend. It’s unlikely I’ll be able to post Saturday, and I definitely won’t be able to post Sunday. Sorry if I hold up the game. Feel free to bot me if needed.

Thanks!

Thanks for letting us know, Trinket.

On another matter, sorry for not posting yesterday. Thursday is my crazy day of the week, and I ended up heading to bed much earlier than usual.

It's okay.

Yesterday I was so burnt from work I could barely think straight.

Since we're giving advisories and the like, in a couple of weeks (over Thanksgiving) I'll be running some tables at a local convention for Starfinder, so I definitely will be unable to post over that weekend until Sunday sometime.
