Hey all, I got hit hard by a bug on Wed PM, and I'm not quite recovered yet. Thanks for any botting you've done. I'm going to share this message in all of my games first, and will then circle back to posting in-game. That may not happen quickly, however, so please keep botting me until I post again in Gameplay. Thanks!
I'm always a sucker for resistances / DR, special attacks, or... well those. I like those usually. After that I start getting silly like "favorite color"
Iago had seemed like he intended to do the ritual. I suppose I was waiting on that. If nothing by end of day I'll move us along.

Standard Chase Rules (for reference)
While a character’s actual speed doesn’t directly affect how often he moves between cards, it does affect how quickly he navigates obstacles. For each 10 feet slower than the chase’s baseline speed a character moves, he suffers a cumulative –2 penalty on any check made to navigate obstacles. Likewise, for every 10 feet faster than the baseline speed he moves, he gains a cumulative +2 bonus on these checks. Significant mobility advantages over the baseline speed type (such as flight) grant an additional +10 bonus on checks made to avoid obstacles, simulating the character’s use of enhanced movement to bypass obstacles entirely. Used properly, extremely powerful effects (such as teleportation) allow a character to instantly move forward a number of cards (use each card’s distance to determine ranges).
Using the base assumption of 30-foot cards, it takes a move action to move through a single card. When a character exits from a card, he must choose one of that card’s two obstacles to face as a standard action before moving to the next card. Success means the character moves to the next card, while failure means the character must face the obstacle again on the next round. Instead of exiting a card, a character can choose to take another action not directly related to navigating the chase’s course, such as casting a spell or drawing a weapon.
A character who wants to attempt to move three cards during his turn can do so by taking a full-round action. That character must overcome both obstacles on the card he is leaving. In this case, if a character fails either obstacle check by 5 or less, he only moves one card forward and his turn ends. If a character fails either obstacle check by more than 5, he cannot move at all that turn. A character unfortunate enough to fail two obstacle checks in a turn becomes mired in his current square (he might have fallen from a ledge, gotten a foot stuck amid roots, or got caught in a crowd, for example). A character who is mired must spend another full-round action becoming unmired and effectively loses his next turn in the chase. In some cases, becoming mired might impart additional penalties (such as falling damage).
A character can also choose to make a ranged attack or cast a spell during his turn in a chase. If the action is a full-round action, he can’t move at all. Use the number of cards and their established distances to determine ranges as necessary. The terrain where the chase takes place might provide the target partial or even full cover or concealment, as you wish. A character can only choose to make melee attacks against targets that are on the same card.
Yep. If anyone gets "within range" (two squares), I'll let you know. Currently you do not have visual.

Sorry for the delay. I am traveling.
I think the bonus will go up to +8 total including the movement bonus for faster speed, right?
Also, I am unsure if I advanced or not. I did not make the DC of the first roll. But I seem to recall something about advancing if you only try one roll? No?
I will try to post tomorrow, or someone please bot me. Eagle forrm.

Weekend also took me by surprise, very busy. Still catching up.

Move through a card
Take a different move action not related to the cards (draw a weapon, etc.)
Exit a card by attempting one of the challenges listed on the card
Against the Odds: spend 1 mythic point to automatically succeed at a card challenge
Take a different standard action not related to the cards (cast a spell, attack, etc.)
Exit a card by attempting both challenges listed on the card (to move three cards forward)
Take a different full-round action not related to the cards (cast a spell, full-round attack, etc.)
Clear the Path: spend 1 mythic point after succeeding at a challenge to remove that obstacle from a square (i.e. everyone behind you can auto-succeed at that challenge)
Yep, sorry, your GM hit a bit of a snag. Will be focusing all energies today on moving games forward. (Sometimes you need a break, and the weekend took literally all my energy from me. Took time to recover.)

So, my thought is to use Legendary Magic to cast charm person on Kafar (who I assume is the older of the two). Farzinel does not have the spell prepared and it is in one of his opposition schools.
Can Farzinel cast it? Does it require a cost of 2 points of mythic power?
Text for Legendary Magic reads: As a swift action, you can expend one use of mythic power to cast any one spell without expending a prepared spell or spell slot. The spell must be on one of your class spell lists and must be of a level that you can cast with that spellcasting class. You don’t need to have the spell prepared, nor does it need to be on your list of spells known. When casting a spell in this way, you treat your caster level as 2 levels higher for the purpose of any effect dependent on level. You can apply any metamagic feats you know to this spell, but its total adjusted level can’t be greater than that of the highest-level arcane spell you can cast from that spellcasting class.
Mythic overrides opposition.

Hi team, my apologies for disappearing at the end of last week. My life took a bit of a messy turn, but I'm getting it back on track. I don't know that I'll catch up entirely today, it may be until tomorrow or Thursday until I get get back on track with all of my games. Thanks for any botting you've done, and please feel free to keep botting until you see a post from me in Gameplay. Thanks!

No new posts since my vacation?
Let's rally the troops and get this one finished. We're in the final scenario of the run.
@GM, could you pull together a roundup post to refresh everyone as to this scenario's goals, and what we've accomplished towards them? I think our slow gameplay has lost some folks and that may help get us back on track.
Your GM got slammed at work, I'll get something of that nature up slowly. I had a post that got eaten about the other guys not getting into the special chamber, but alas, luck is not with me.
I'm getting there also, which is part of why my posting has been slower. Been struggling irl a bit, but trying to keep my posting here until we get these finished.
Pssst, Stormy, you're up.

Hi all! I had an extended weekend trip outside of cell service, and forgot to notify my games before I left. I'm back now, and will be checking in and posting in all of my games hopefully tonight but definitely by tomorrow (Wed). Thanks for any botting you've done, and sorry for my unexpected absence!
Yes, your turn again.
