Fyi with opportune parry a tie goes to the attacker. In this case it doesn't change anything since she would miss Cael's AC and he didn't hit her. But for next time.
Norm walks up to Zelinda and touches her shoulder
"Maybe you can get through like this"
"අදෘශ්යමාන බව"
Zelinda disappear from everyones view.
Thought this might be worth some discussion.
I was doing some rules checking about this. There's been some debate about this issue before, but here's what I'm getting from it.
RAW, Invisibility does not negate the need for an acrobatics check, but it does remove the dex modifier to AC (and assuming CMD as well). When you are invisible, and make beat Perception with Stealth, they don't know that you are there, but could still block access, thus the need for Acrobatics check (if maybe a little easier).
One thing I was thinking. If the Stealth check is successful, maybe the +5 to the CMD for going through an enemies square can be negated as well, due the the fact that the enemy doesn't know what you are doing, so it's almost like tumbling around them normally.
So, - Dex bonus regarless, but also -5 if Stealth is successful.
Thoughts?
I hope it was okay i did it, without asking, but thought it okay, since it doesn't hurt or changes your stats in any way.
No worries with me. I'm all for spontaneous ideas now and then. :)
Norm, I'm not sure how you could have long of effect to cast acid splash from there
Ansgar, so you want me to fall back and swap who's on the front line, or should I keep swinging while you heal me?
Sorry, forgot to move up. Done now.
Not even sure I can see her from there. Up to GM, if not, I'll just look pretty :-)
@Cael, I'll jump up front. There's no way I can out heal her damage output, but I might be able to beat her to death.
Ideally, you should make an attack then 5 foot step away. I want to cast a buff spell then 5 foot step forward.
I don't think we can swap places like that. There is a feat (i can't remeber the name right now) that does enable that. I'll have to withdraw, which isn't the worst thing ever.
I've set it up as a readied action if required, so however you vacate the opening I'll buff and then 5 foot step into place.
I don't think you can ready an action and a 5ft step, but I've been wrong before. I'll put an attack roll into my post and leave it up to the gm. Should post later tonight.
I've updated the loot sheet.
When we sell stuff, is it so for the standard 50% or do we roll something for it?
There's some good stuff there that can be used by the group.
+1 Bastard Sword for Ansgar
Strength bow for Quiary
Armor could go to just about anywhere, but Ansgar may be the better choice. Zelinda could use it, but I think I'd rather keep her as mobile as possible.
The medallion is a tricky one. Not sure who would be best for that one.
Selling works as per normal rules.

Great.
I've made a few small changes to the loot sheet.
We can now mark if it's a party item, meaning mostly single use items like healing or spells, where it's something everyone benefits from it.
If we put a number in the sold column, it'll automatically set the value to 50%.
I've change the overview, so it's now showing the sales value of the stuff we have that is unclaimed and the split if we sold everything unclaimed and divided it up.
There is actually quite a lot of usefull items we should have someone claim, like:
the elf bane arrows,
the now 2 composite longbows,
the ordinary arrows
and the magic weapons and armor we just got.
Go in and mark what you want!
And we have a pair of masterwork manacles we could use on her!
Sorry Quiary was no use in that fight, it was a bit of a bummer but I thikn I will have to buy a cloak and maybe take Iron Will
The loot sheet is view only
The loot sheet is view only
Sorry, I've changede it. Should work now
Quiary canot use the bows as the Str bonus is to high for him to draw.
Doesn't mean you can't use it... just means that you can only use up to your max Str. bonus. ie. he can't draw the bow to it's full range.
It also means that you would have a bit of room to improve your Str.
Nothing really there for Zelinda to use, though I am half tempted to make use of the medallion.
If you use a bow with a strength rating higher than your strength bonus you take a -2 penalty on your attack roll.
Ya I thought there was something more to it than just not being able to get the full draw. I mean I could keep it around since it is master work and just get a Str belt or the Str/Dex Belt.
That's a really nice sheet Norm. More sophisticated than what I've tried making so far.
In the locked/hidden cells beside our own columns (ex. Column L) are you multiplying the quantity taken and the value of the item, then summing them into the first row (ex. sum in to cell L1) for use on the overview sheet? And something similar in column G for the overall loot?
And on the Party Expenses tab, what are you using column F for? (G is a sum of some kind I think, not sure what F is for)
If you don't want me to pry then that's fine too.

Thank you :-)
Nothing secret about it at all, ask away :-)
On the Items sheet, column G is a sum of the items no-one has claimed and that hasn't been sold.
Column J is a sum-up of the things that has been sold.
The column after each character is a sum-up of the value of the items that character has claimed, without counting the party items (so for Cael, the warhorse count, but not the everburning torch as I marked that as a party item)
On the Party Expenses sheet, F and G is a sum-up of Purchases and Pay-outs respectively. They are used on the overview in cell B7 and B8.
And it was a good thing you asked, I saw a mistake i've made!
Now theres some hidden rows on the overview to.
In those I calculate the share we can use for payouts.
Before it could say that you had a negative share. That didn't work. I've changed it, so it only divides the funds we actually have to divide.
A bit late, but I am unavailable until next Tuesday. Have a good weekend everyone!
Also, I won't have much time this week. I wrote my car off and have insurance stuff/buying a new one to deal with.
Yikes. Glad to know that you're okay, Ansgar. Take care of yourself.
Hopefully things are ok
I just wanted to be clear on what's going on. Ansgar, Shalelu and Father Zanthus are going to question Nualia, while the rest of us go talk to the mayor?
Maybe?
I'm waiting for confirmation on that as well.
Let's go with that, then we'll get back together after. I'd like to hear if there's any direction from Ansgar as to what we should tell the mayor though. I know we're not actually working for Ansgar, but the deference feels right given the circumstances.
Sorry for the delay. Got a new car though! Insurance/car stuff is dealt with so I should be more available now.
Should we split the party since Ansgar has been in the party since the start it makes sense he talks to the Mayor
I'm a little on the early side, but I just wanted to give everyone a headsup.
We recently sold our house and bought a new one, and our moving date is August 28th. So needless to say that next week is going to be busy, and there will be a time where I don't have internet access.
I'll keep posting for as long as I can, but if I seem to go silent, then please be sure to bot me as needed.
Congratulations! Good luck with the move and any small reno's you're doing right away.
Thanks!
Thankfully there's not much that needs to be done, other than having to have a bit of electrical done, and an egress window needs to be installed soon-ish.
I just want to give everyone a heads up, but I will likely be unavailable from August 31 to September 18. I am doing a canoeing trip over the long weekend and then need to get ready for a two week trip I'm leaving for on the Wednesday. I will try to post from my phone but I will likely not have time/signal depending on which part of the trip I am at.
DM feel free to bot Ansgar as needed. He will keep to the front lines and act as a shield for the others.
I know this is a bit poorly timed for the game, so let me know what you need to make it work.
We can do a lot RP and some set up while you are gone
Actually we're in town so it's a great time to so some in depth role play. Have fun on your trip.
Figured I'd drop a note here.
Hopefully no one cares too much that I did that. I really don't see how Ansgar was coming out of that room with Nualia still alive . The scene kind of also cemented for me that Ansgar is not likely to drift toward LG anytime soon... LN is where its at for him.
I tried to keep it tasteful as well, I know of some people who... describe to much in situations like that. If it's too much let me know since its the first of probably a few executions Ansgar will perform.
Now... just need to wait and see if Hemlock stops me.
It was definitely a dark scene, but handled pretty tastefully in my opinion. I have to decide now who Cael will think of this. Stoneface is definitely a perfect name for Ansgar.
It was done well, PG for anyone who doesn't enjoy more.
Perfectly fine with me
Hey folks.
I'm all moved and (mostly) recovered, so I should be able to start posting regularly again.
I'll try to get something up either tonight or early tomorrow.
Sounds good, no rush really
Glad you're back :)
Gm, this is a more narrative portion, is it ok to assume some npc actions? Things like Ameiko brining us food and talking with us. I'd like to write some, but it's hard to write too much without having responses and such.
I'm ok if you'd rather keep control over the NPCs but I thought I'd ask.
Feel free to assume their actions.
That tale was awesome.
I'm glad you liked hearing out :) I'm especially glad to have had a chance to play it. Thank you for all the hard work as a GM :)
