Seraphimpunk's [core] Crypt of the Everflame (Inactive)

Game Master Seraphimpunk

sorry. MIA from the boards this weekend and today. will post later tonight and get rolling again tomorrow.

I'm currently at 5 STR damage, and probably more incoming. Do we want to completely rest up after this fight, or push through? I'd prefer to rest up, maybe Roldare has some stuff to provide long-term care, which cuts healing time in half. There's still a stairs down, and my to-hit and damage output are shot.

The AoO was triggered because of timing issues. Kwinten moved his mini before the shadow attacked, but this would have happened after.

but then the shadow stood over the dagger, so he'd have provoked anyway for picking it up?
let me go rewind and review the footage.

ahh yes, i see that initally he stepped over the dagger, then he stepped back instead to reach and pick up the dagger. his action would have happened after the shadow's attack not before, so : the shadow attacks ( without having to move over the dagger to reach him ), vanovar steps back to where he's not in reach, and picks up the dagger, not provoking an aoo, and not taking 2 str damage.

he does take 1d6 ⇒ 2 fire damage from the hot dagger . so 2 fire damage instead of 2 str damage. =)

So does Omorose also get damage or isn't the key hot as well?
Oh, if she senses a magical aura on the dagger, she will tell!

the key can be taken without taking damage

CLW >> Channel. 1d8+1 DC15 for half or D6 DC10 for half with an extra +2 on the save! We need to take down this thing quick! And yes, if the dagger is magical Omorose will say, so Rowanne can take it and attack.

DC 15 ? only when casting yourself maybe. from a wand its still DC 11 1d8+1

I don't think we've got any wands, so I was talking about casting yourself indeed.

I have a wand, 3 charges used so far.

Wand won't provoke, but the DC is lower. If the dagger isn't magical giving the wand to the paladin would be good.

Also, Omorose, your Disrupt Undead will be practically impossible to hit. -2 from the room, -1 from DEX, and a -4 if you're shooting into melee. That's a lot of penalties.

I calculated that my chances were exactly 5%. My action was more an indication that we were going to fight the shadow than anything else. (And if I was anywhere close of hitting I'd try to convince the GM that I wouldn't get the -4, cause I couldn't deal damage to my partymembers with Disrupt Undead anyway)

Fair point. :P In a home game, we work with crit/fumble cards. Someone fumbled a Disrupt Undead and did double damage to a teammember. Oh noes. :P

I had a stag party and I will probably be hung over for three weeks, so here is my math, feel free to correct me if wrong. Math hard: To hit, normall +3 with a melee weapon, now +1 from the smoke. +3 from smite evil (charisma 16). Damage, dagger is 1d4, +3 from strength, I have no strenght damage yet, +2 from smite as its an undead?

It's a magic dagger so probably an extra +1 to hit and damage. Taking dagger is probably a move, so you could 5' and ready an attack.

Since you rolled a 10, let's do math:
-2 from smoke.
+2 from STR.
+1 from BAB.
+1 from magic dagger.
+3 from Smite.

That's an AC of 15, if I didn't screw up somewhere.

All bow to the porcelain throne!

Beterschap.

The shadow goes first, so maybe it will al work out?

Rowanne, 5' stepping back after your attack might be a good idea.

Wow! You Everflame players are making for some terrifically exciting reading!!

--from a newbie :)

i do consider CLW used to injure undead a weapon-like spell, as it requires an attack roll to hit, so it benefits from the bardic inspired courage to hit and damage. just included it in the last two attacks from venja and cyrixs b/c i noticed it was missing there and the attacks /damage were close enough to mattering

i'll be away for a long weekend in brussels thursday - monday, so posting will be ... er. slow to nonexistant =) depenging on wifi and when i can check it.

Enjoy ;)

i forget what i'm waiting on. =X

I think we've all taken our actions, and we're waiting for the statue to beat our asses. Could be mistaken.

Either people are waiting (to see if the statue makes it out of the pit), or helping Venja. Which I horribly failed, but Auke thankfully made.

(its like the beginning of a bad joke: a palladin and a wizard try to fish a bard out of a pit)

Don't forget that we are activly looking for a clue to take down the statue (if possible, other then chopping it down with weapons)

I'll be in China for the next two weeks, and I'm not sure what the internet situation will be there (especially, whether I can access google drawings). In the worst case, I might go black until the 21st.

lemmie know. i can take screen shots and email them to you if you hit some kind of great firewall of china.

sorry. been distracted of late.
will try and get this back on track and see if we can't wrap this up soon.

who is who again?
can y'all either message me or post with your:

Your name
Character name
PFS # - character number
Day job if ya got'em.

and either your email address if you want me to send you your chronicle sheet, or if you will pick it up next time i see you ( NL residents )

Thanks, it was a fun run! Roleplay got a bit minimal at some point, but I feel we've exhausted our character traits by then. And we did some fun stuff. I got to grapple a golem, woo!

Thanks for running! (Tough dungeon, but working as a party instead of individuals made the difference!)

Yeah, we all really contributed to the adventure, especially the boss fight. I was damage soak and damage dealer in general, Rowanne's smite did a ton of damage, Omorose did crowd control with the skeletons, and Cyrixs wouldn't have dealt the finishing blow if it weren't for Venja's Bit of Luck and his own performance. If we had a Rogue to disable the traps, we'd pretty much have been the perfect party, IMHO.

Email; you should have it, but if I can bribe you to run We Be Kobolds for me in RL I'm fine with you handing me a chronicle sheet for this adventure in person as well ;)

Anyone want to keep the gang together and roll into another pbp CORE adventure?

the obvious choice: Core Masks of the Living God ?

If Vince is up for it I'm game!

I wasn't even suggesting Vince GM it..but that's even better then me offering to GM something ;).

Never played Mask of the Living God, so sounds good to me.

After looking it up on the products page..it's for lvl 3's..so PFS range of 2-4...means we should all be able to play it..but almost all of us are on the pretty low lvl scale. But a 4 star review..so should be a decent adventure.

Never played it myself either.

It's written for 4 level 3s, 15 point buy, so with 5 level 2s 20 point buy might even be doable!

However, I've got enough core credit to level up to 3. 2nd level spells would be nice, so I'll probably do that!

played through it once. but i've forgotten all about it.
if you wanna GM something, i can take the credit and play one, and then run Mask of the Living Gods when we're 3rd so a little beefier?

could technically play through something like murder's mark or a 2nd level module with a few 2nd levels.

I'd be up for it, but there's a catch. With the Core stuff I've done over time, I might already hit level 4. I've done three Core Society scenarios (well, one with GM credit attached to this character). I've played this, and depending on how much credit Auke assigns to our Forgotten Laboratory PbP (by the way, *poke poke*), I'm already level 4. If that's not a problem, I'll gladly do it. Don't think our playgroup's really into Core mode yet.
Also, I haven't received my sheet yet. Haven't had the time yet, or did it get lost somewhere?

I've been busy and still jetlagged!

BTW, you defeated about 49% of the dungeon, so how many XP do you want?

No matter, no rush. It was kinda to both you and Seraphimpunk.
I think it says somewhere that if you clear two-thirds of an adventure, you get full marks, right? I have no idea how this works, I'm fine with whatever you deem right.

For a scenario yes, for a module, no...

well, i haven't reported this yet. so you can always assign this to a 1st level character, and have a 2nd level character for core games...

did some reporting last night, but i seem to have lost a tracking sheet w/ two tables on it. drow of the darklands pyramid and something else. ::shakes head:: and now going away to utrecht for a weekend of emerald spire madness.

i'll see if i can report this table today and get sheets out while i'm at work, but no miracles promised hope y'all can survive another short wait.

... still missing rowanne's reporting info anyhow...

If the sessions where planned with Warhorn you can find most info there! :-)

How could you forget that was me! Shees, i am so killing your kitsune again tonight :P

yeah, i can use that as a basis and play guessing games with the character #s =)
