Done.
About to head to the airport on a family emergency, not sure what my ability to post will be. Will post as I'm able.
Good luck, hope that it isn't too serious!
Tik, you still around?
Hey gang, sorry to disappear hear. In hindsight, I should've bowed out a while back and I'll do that now.
The pace of this game has made it harder for me to keep track and stay invested. Thanks to yall for inviting me in, and my apologies for taking so long to realize I needed to bow out.
Best of luck!
My posting will be limited for the next ten days or so. I have friends coming to stay from out of town, a busy work week coming up - and then PaizoCon! Will post as I'm able, maybe I'll see some of you in Seattle.
Avora levels up as a Druid!
She receives:
8 hit points (5 plus 2 for Con and 1 for favored bonus)
+1 Reflex and Will
+1 Know (geography), Know (nature), Perception, Spellcraft, Stealth, Survival
Improved Natural Armor
I will update my sheet and status bar when I learn whether we can rest or not.
Okay, pondering the level up. Options are to take Horizon Walker 5 or Ranger 7. Both give +1 BAB and 6 skill points.
Horizon Walker: +1 to all saves, another Favored Terrain, +2 to existing Favored Terrain (would likely add to Cold)
Ranger: Woodland Stride, progress toward 2nd level spells (but no spells of that level yet), one more use of Ranger's Focus per day
I had been planning to go to level 6 in Horizon Walker, to get Cold Dominance, which gives me Cold Resistance 20 and +1 att/dam vs cold subtype creatures. I guess I'm still leaning that way, but not sure.
Anyone got any insights, inspirations, insults?
Well since you have a 14 wisdom you get a 2nd level spell slot if that helps. Plus, I will tell you that you will not be in the cold for that much longer.

You're right, I had misread the stat table and thought I didn't get one at this level.
Plus, I will tell you that you will not be in the cold for that much longer.
That is useful information indeed.
I'm going with another level of Ranger.
Sven, you interested in that +4 Str belt? Because I sure am. I'd give you my +2 Str belt, if you'd like it.
Cool, thanks.
Anyone have strong feelings about the +2 Greatsword? I'm guessing no one else wants it, but didn't want to assume that.
Other things I'd be interested in: one of the Rings of Protection +2 and one of the Pearls of Power, but I'll defer to others' wishes on those items.
Fair enough.
Anyone else object to that?
Sorry guys, I've got a bunch of personal stuff going on and need a few days. I'll check in with an update on Thursday.
HP Gain: 7 HP (5 +1 Con + 1 Favoured Class)
New Extract: Monstrous Physique II
New Feat: Mother's Gift (Claw Bonus)
+1 BaB
Skills:
+1 Bluff
+1 Diplomacy
+1 Intimidate
+1 Perception
+1 Sense Motive
+1 Stealth
+3 Acrobatics
I'm going to need to level up this weekend. Sorry, folks.
Are we all good to go?
I will likely be unable to post for most of next week. I had planned to go camping with my family at a place I know there is cell signal, but the road to that spot is washed out. We're going to a different place where I understand there is no cell reception, so I will likely be unable to post June 19-22. My apologies, please bot me as necessary.
I apologize for the radio silence. That isn't representative of who I want to be, and I'm sorry.
I'd like to suggest that the rest of you go ahead and get started without me, and if I can't manage to get leveled in the next week or so, I'll bow out.
I know you've been going through some stuff so it's alright. I just need someone in the party to move things along.
I've started the process. May be able to finish it up tonight.
Would love some spell suggestions to make that step faster... that's usually the slowest part. :)
For 2nd, Soothing Word or Spiritual Weapon are both good. For 3rd, Prayer, Remove Blindess/Deafness, Remove Curse, or Remove Disease. Air Walk, Freedom of Movement are good for 4th level spells.
I did it!
Yay!
If no one posts by tonight, I'll move on and you'll start the fight with General Malesinder. Last chance for any buffs.
I'll put up shield other on whoever wants it.
DM, what kind of time do we have for buffs? That is, is pre-casting min/level buffs acceptable here?
Yes.
Okay. Shield other on whoever wants it, Life Link on everyone (as always), freedom of movement on myself, and shield of faith (+3) on anyone that doesn't have a better deflection bonus already (I don't).
This +2 frost scimitar has been forged from a single piece of razor-sharp, superhardened ice. A rimeblade automatically resizes itself to match the size of its wielder, and if a rimeblade is damaged, the wielder can cause the blade to melt away and reform with full hit points as a full-round action. This ability cannot be used if the weapon is destroyed. It also increases the cold damage dealt by wielder by 1 for every 2 dice of damage(minimum 1), including the bonus cold damage from itself. Once per day on command, the wielder can transform a rimeblade into a beam of ice-cold flame called rimefre. The weapon is still wielded as scimitar, and attacks with the bladelike beam are melee touch attacks that deal 1d8+4 points of cold damage (regardless of the wielder’s size). Because the beam is immaterial, the wielder’s Strength modifer doesn’t apply to damage. In addition, a creature that takes cold damage from the rimefre beam is covered in clinging frost and is entangled for 1 round. The rimefre beam lasts for 1 minute, after which the weapon returns to its normal form. In addition, once per day as a swift action before an attack, a rimeblade’s wielder can cause the blade to glow with a pale blue radiance. On a successful attack, the rimeblade deals an additional 4d6 points of cold damage and causes the target to be staggered for 1 round. If the attack is a critical hit, the target is staggered for 1 minute instead. This effect ends after a single attack, regardless of whether the attack is successful or not.

I am on vacation this week until next Monday, Please bot me as necessary. If I'm running the game, I will do what I can to check in, but don't expect much activity from me this week. Thank you.
I will be camping Aug 21-23, not expecting to have any signal. Please bot me as needed.
So do y'all still want to play? I don't want to force anyone to play if they don't want to. I mean, this book has taken 9 months since I've taken over and we're not even in the final dungeon yet. This combat alone has taken nearly a month.
Well what can I do to get that back?
I'm good to keep going, though I agree this combat is dragging a bit. Part of my hesitation is that I'm not sure how much I can contribute (even if I weren't entangled).
As Sven said, it's just been hard to stay enthused... it feels very grind-like, at least to me.
I'm not sure of a solution, unfortunately, which is why I haven't posted before now.
Well I can basically skip the next/final dungeon and just give you the 2 major encounters which are cool and will end the book. I would love to do the next book but I understand if people want to bow out.
That would be, Book 4? Book 5? I agree that I would like to carry on if possible. I'm enjoying the on-again/off-again relationship with Sven and I really want to get to Rasputain Must Die!, if not complete the AP. That's what attracted me to this AP in the first place.
What's the ability that lets you use Perfect Strike with a sansetsukon?

Okay, bad news on my end. My computer is down for what duration I cannot say. I might be back online in a few days, it may be a few weeks. Needless to say, this suspends my gaming. I can log on through my wife's computer, but I cannot access any of my files. Hopefully, this will be resolved within a week. Please bear with me.
If I am in your game, bot me as necessary (though I will try to log on once a day).
If you are in one of my games, I don't know what to say. I will try to keep things moving as best I can with what I have to work with, but as I said, my files are inaccessible right now. Just hang in there and we'll be back!
Just waiting on Lana.
I'm confused. Did I ready the spell (if so, my init changed when it went off), or get to cast it last round?
