Sorry everyone for going MIA had to travel for work and didn't get a chance to post last week.

Good to have you back!

Btw, I have another surprise in store for you guys coming up... :)

A shame that we don't have a poison master with us.
It would be kinda cool to have a drow-only poison (inguested) and just offer a drink to all suspects and see who is getting the crumps *lol*

On a more relevant note:
- I could offer to shadow one subject together with someone else (fo SS to kick in)
Otherwise, I am kinda blank, beside plain kidnapping and interrogating them...

Sighted (Ex)
Although it has no physical sensory organs, a psicrystal can telepathically sense its environment as well as a creature with normal vision and hearing. Darkness (even supernatural darkness) is irrelevant, as are areas of supernatural silence, though a psicrystal still can’t discern invisible or ethereal beings. A psicrystal’s sighted range is 40 feet.

I can communicate with it telepathically, but can't see through its sight or anything like that.

Will be able to update a little later today.

crap, I actually forgot my new fancy ring!
Grr, damage should have been 2d6 rather than d8.
Oh well, time to update my macros :-)


Current Date: Gozran 25th Amari Maze Hadha Maze Zaza Maze

Hadha, I realize my map is not as clear as I hoped. Those boxes are stacked higher the further into the pile you go. The first 5 ft perimeter of a pile of boxes is 5 ft high. The next five feet further in is 10 ft high, etc. I moved you to account for the fact you haven't been doing any climbing but should be somewhere with LoS to the mage.


HP: 24/24 | AC: 19/16/13 | F:3 R:7 W:4 | CMD: 15 CMB: 2 | Init: +6 Percep: +9, 11 vs traps

I am on holiday from 04-18.
I will (probably) have internet but I cannot make a guess about my posting rate during those two weeks.
Bot me where necessary please.


Current Date: Gozran 25th Amari Maze Hadha Maze Zaza Maze

You guys have probably noticed by now that a friend of mine has joined you for this last mission. I figured it would be a fun thematic element to actually have to deal with cooperating with a Taldane. And he's saving you a huge headache right now of having that caster's spells directed at you guys.

Amari, you ok? I don't like botting players, especially in critical situations. But it looks like I'm going to need to.


Current Date: Gozran 25th Amari Maze Hadha Maze Zaza Maze

Fyi, I'm at a research conference this week so I'll probably be posting more slowly. I hope to keep up the pace but I can't promise that.

I know I need to bot Amari. Sorry. Busy weekend and week.

No worries to be honest have a vacation and selling/buying/moving in under a month so been tired lately myself


Current Date: Gozran 25th Amari Maze Hadha Maze Zaza Maze

Amari PMed me and reminded me he is on vacation until next week. So if I get time at my conference, I'll bot him but if not he'll be back soon.


Current Date: Gozran 25th Amari Maze Hadha Maze Zaza Maze

Almost done with conference. Will resume pace soon.

Back from no-internet holiday location.
Made it back to civilization after all *lol*
Will catch up in the week to come.

@GM: Wasn't sure whether some of the boxes may provide him with partial cover that's why I asked. I managed to beat the blindedness eventually :-)
On a meta-side of things I was surprised to see my botted-self to miss on a nat 20, so I thought asking about miss-chance might shed some insight on that - but that is very meta so it really is just my curiousity speaking :-)


Current Date: Gozran 25th Amari Maze Hadha Maze Zaza Maze

Sorry about that, Amari. That wasn't your original attack roll. I guess I re-arranged and got mixed up somehow. Not sure what happened there.


AC:23|18|20, HPxx, CMD: 24, Saves (F|R|W): 5|7|8, Perception: +11, Initiative +5, Sense Motive: +10, Ki 2/5, Perfect Strike 4/4, Stamina 5/5 || Conditions: Dead

Np ^^
I sure know that situation from my GM-foo as well :-)
Just was worried for a short while that I was unable to hit a bloody caster on a nat 20 *lol*

Does the non-lethal damage increase over time in this water sphere?

Initially you said 2d6 but you just rolled a 2d10. Now I have taken 9,7, and 17 damage, which means I am unconscious and will drown almost immediately.

well guys...sorry! should have kept my nose out of things...


Current Date: Gozran 25th Amari Maze Hadha Maze Zaza Maze

Nope! I just mis-remembered. You're right. It's 2d6.

Actual damage: 2d6 ⇒ (6, 5) = 11

ok. I'm at 1/28 HP folks. Time to burn my last inspiration points for life or death

the water doesn't disappear now that the caster is unconscious, does it?

p.s. your rolls are so much better than mine it makes me sick. An 17 on a 2d10 and then a 11 on a 2d6?

Typical GM dice :-)
I know that all too well from my old f2f GM.
He killed like three of my characters with exploding dice.
I did the math on one of those deaths and looked at a chance of 0.0125% in the end ...

@GM: would it be feasible to charge-tackle Saul out of the sphere?


Current Date: Gozran 25th Amari Maze Hadha Maze Zaza Maze

Well the dice come and go. I tend to roll a lot better in PBP than F2F, interestingly enough.

When GMing, my wife had an allosaurus that I had restrained have to roll twice and take the lower to hit me. Crit me anyway and got an 88th percentile damage roll, knocking me unconscious from solid HP. I was... displeased...

Amari, you can attempt a bull rush or a reposition against the spell's DC. Fail by 5 or more and you fall into the water too.


Current Date: Gozran 25th Amari Maze Hadha Maze Zaza Maze

Odds of that were around 0.03% so not as bad as Amari's story. That's nuts.

so I can take that as a no, the sphere doesn't disappear?


Current Date: Gozran 25th Amari Maze Hadha Maze Zaza Maze

Ah sorry. Correct. The sphere doesn't disappear. That would only happen if it were a concentration spell. The duration will run out soon, though.[/ooc]

on the map, is there just the one drow left? And is he furthest north? I don't know other people faces well enough quite yet.

Jup, there should be only one left afaik.
I gave him a slight red border to highlight him in a certainly-not-gamey fashion ;-)

Got myself two days off work to chill through my release date anniversary.
Will likely be busy gaming with my wife and eating pizza ;-)
My pbp time will likely be limited until next week.


Current Date: Gozran 25th Amari Maze Hadha Maze Zaza Maze

Sounds great! For reference, you live somewhere in central Europe, right? I'm just trying to make sure I know what pizza means to you. XD

Germany to be precise, yes.
Now I am curious what else a pizza could be than something to eat :-)


Current Date: Gozran 25th Amari Maze Hadha Maze Zaza Maze

Well I just know that I've seen some pizza that deviated strongly from my American expectations while in Europe. To me, pizza should have red sauce, cheese, and some nice mix of meats (like pepperoni) and veggies (like olives, onions, mushrooms, etc) on it.

a week since last post? Let's keep going, Saul wants this battle to end so he can talk to you guys!
