I went with the 1/2+1.
Okay, I'm leveled! Vulpidin is getting another tail, but I think I'll wait until an appropriate moment for that to happen in-game.
I have added a list of plot points to Sami's profile page, it is the first thing on the page. I will try and keep it updated as things come up. I know, given the speed of PbP we cna forget thigns.
Sami, that is great. You are correct that it is easy to forget what's going on. The GM created a Notes document (see the campaign header near the Combat Map) for us to keep notes. It might be hard to keep track of if we have notes in more than one location.
What do you think of moving your notes to the Notes document?
Yes, that works. I try and do this in ever game but that is better.
GM Fuz
I just realized that you did not start a loot sheet for this one and I was lazy and did not stat one either. You spoiled me in Giantslayer I think! I am happy to run one if you like though your sheet is better then mine!
Ideally I would like to sell any equipment from Tsuto and anything else we can. He bullet supply is ok but it will become an issue after the next stretch of activity I would think.
I doubt there would be enough gold to upgrade to MW but she would want to find out, she is pretty new to all this after all.

Yep, I can set it up.. I recently took over another RotR group and promised to set them up one as well.
Loot tracker added. I cannot edit the campaign info (site bug), so I added a link on a $ next to the map link in my status bar.
That's a nice loot sheet. Vulpidin, you took the composite shortbow? That's fine. I'm going to take the masterwork tools if that's ok with everyone.
Who wants the ring of protection?
Can someone identify the potion?
Finally, how much gp do we each have to spend before we attack the tunnel?
Many thanks for the loot tracker!
Vulpidin is unfortunately short on actual magical training, so he doesn't have Spellcraft to identify things.
Hmmm... I'm trying to remember if Vulpidin has used his lightning breath yet today, since I apparently haven't been tracking that on his sheet...
I think we rested since last time but cannot say for sure.
You used it last on the goblins, I think. That was a previous day.
I will make sure to write it down this time!
...does anyone in our party have Knowledge (planar)?
No Knowledge(Planes) for me.
Only local and religion for me.
I know the things!
My internet connection may be spotty from today till Friday.
Who still needs to go?
Probably me... I have been slammed by a huge deadline at work this last week, and today was first chance I really have to catchup.
As a heads up Sami is sitting at 3hp. If anyone has anything to help with that it would be cool.
I'm afraid I don't have anything to help with that.
I'm out of spells for the day.
Side note--my recollection of the half of the campaign I've played is that, while not necessarily the hardest fight, this one was the most annoying because there's no source of weapons to penetrate its DR.
A few things that will serve you well in this campaign - invest in some knowledge skills, because knowing what can help will save you a lot of heartache. Invest in some alternate weapons... silver, cold iron, adamntine, etc.
I only have a few silver bullets and need to craft some more but it costs gold.
Did you do a loot sheet for this one like your other game I am in or should one of us do one?
I haven't yet, because honestly you have found little.
Loot:
A quick search of Tsuto reveals that he has:
a potion
a composite shortbow with 14 arrows
a nice, but plain ring
masterwork thieves' tools
masterwork flute
silver earrings
a journal
6 pouches of gold dust
8 pouches of silver dust
10 pieces of platnium
Before that, I think everything was individually tracked.
Cool. Still enough to make some more special bullets next break.
Thank you sir.
I don't need any of that stuff.
Now is a good time to update characters to level 3- congrats!
Also, since you are back in town, if you want to sell off some stuff? It turns out I did already have a loot sheet - click the $ in my status bar next to RotR for this group (or the Loot Sheet at top of page).
Hmmm... so one of us should definitely take the ring of protection. If any of us can use the +1 longsword they should take it. The scrolls and wand should probably go to Lucien or be sold, as I don't think anyone else could use them. The cure light potions should probably go to those who don't have their own source of magical healing (i.e. not me, possibly not Sami). The lesser restoration potions are generally useful--we should keep those around, though I don't know who should carry them. The potion of spider climb is nice if we remember to use it--who would most benefit from being out of reach?
We can re-roll identifying the potion from Tsuto once we've leveled. The masterwork flute, silver earrings, ranseurs, and ancient prayer book can probably be sold. Someone may want the silver dagger for penetrating DR. Not sure about the masterwork hand axe--anyone want that?
There's my thoughts.
EDIT: I also just realized Vulpidin isn't proficient with that shortbow, so someone else should take it.
I would not mind the spider climb potion. Climbing up out of reach and shooting things seems like a valid plan.
I need gold to make some bullets, that is my number one priority. I need to make more silver and some cold iron, both as alchemical cartridges. Realistically that is going to be a constant process along with either crafting or upgrading guns as we go.
Label the sheet with what you want to take and we can sell off the rest.
[u] Leveling Up: [/u]
Level in Paladin
Feat - Extra Grit
Skills:
Knowledge skills
Perception
Diplomacy
Craft Blacksmith
Craft Firearms
I don't have the STR to use the composite shortbow.
I added a column for "who wants it?" The Ring of Protection should go to either Lucien or me since I think we're going to be doing most of the melee. My AC is 19 already but I don't have spells to increase it.
Correction to my leveling. I put two levels in craft alchemy not blacksmith/gunsmith. Needed that to make alchemical cartridges.
I would like to craft the following bullets, this can be done in a day next time we have time off.
20 Cold Iron Alchemical Cartridges = 240gp
40 Normal Alchemical Cartridges = 120gp
Total = 360gp
Clearly this would be after we sell things and divide up some gold. Being a gunslinger is expensive even with the crafting discount!
Cartridges cost a far amount more, but you are getting a lot of bang for your buck relative to other classes at this level. But from her on out, the costs for bullets should become less of an impact.
Meanwhile, might I recommend you also stock up on plain ol' bullets of a variety of materials? Not as good for multi-shot, but fairly cheap and versatile... and you can always load up a non-cartridge between combats to save costs on your first shot. (Can you tell, I also have a gunslinger or two?)
Don't forget to update your status bars too...
I think I'm all leveled up and my status bar is updated.
Updated all but ammo, I want to be sure I have the cash. Once I get those I will get some, much cheaper, non-alchemical bullets. I use them anytime I do not have to move.
Stats update. I included the ring of protection, but I do have Shield, so I can boost my AC well above Tiyuvi. So, if you want the ring I can take it off.
You can keep it for now. If I start getting hit too much we can trade.
Has everyone figured out what they want? We should sell the rest so we can buy some gear.
I got all I want from the list. Now I just want some cash so I can get oil of keen edge for my rapier.
Can I actually use the scroll, wand, etc? Technically, psychic magic and arcane magic are different things. If we're eliding that difference I'll take them, otherwise someone with a high UMD would be a better choice.
I should probably take at least one CLW potion.
Does the composite shortbow have a strength rating?
Nothing else really jumps out at me. I guess I could take one of the melee weapons as a backup, but I can just reform my mind blade, so I don't really need a backup (except maybe the dagger because silver) and we're probably better off selling them.
I marked the ring and the potions as "wanted" in the spreadsheet. One CLW potion for Lucien and one for me. There's one up for grabs. I am taking the two lesser restoration potions just so that someone has them. Of course I will give them to the person who needs them at the time.
I've also marked the silver dagger for me for overcoming DR if needed. I'll pass it to whoever needs it at the moment.
Otherwise I'm fine with selling the rest.
So mark what you are keeping in the "carried by" column on the loot sheet.
GM Fuzzfut makes the best loot sheets. Once you enter your name it will fill in on the last page to show what you have gained so far.
Thing you purchases will go on the second sheet and populate the same way on the last page.
I am entering my bullets that I would like, I can change it if we get short on gold.
Oddly, I never find composite bows in modules with a rating. But the person you took it from had +1 strength bonus, so we will assume +1.
I updated the loot sheet
Lucien - I did a bit of research on psychic items, and here is what I have found.
You can use psychic scrolls that are on your spell list, but not arcane or divine unless you use UMD. Any scrolls you create would obviously be psychic scrolls.
Wands, however, you just need to have the spell on your Magus list.
I also saw that Concentration DC is +10 ? Were you aware of that? Do I have that wrong?
I must admit, I didn't really read up on the psychic rules much, but I am pretty flexible too.
I am aware of that. It’s why I took a trait that boosts my concentration (albeit only by, I think, +2). That and I’ll be scheming my tactics around not having to cast defensively.
If you all want to have separate treasure, I will track it as both an asset and an expenditure. For example, let's split 2000 four ways. That will result in 4 x 500gp expenditures, and 4x500 gp assets.
Take a look.
Hello, everyone. I am afraid this week just got away from me with so much to do before I leave. I will be travelling until March 25, and I don't plan to have much time or access during, so I will pick this back up when I return. Thanks for you patience!
No problem. Have a good trip.
