Everyone?
=(
We may need to go back to shore to buy some potions or a wand or something. BTW. Most of my abilities are absolutely nothing underwater.
I can use my handy underwater crossbow, but that's it unless I can get into melee. I can't throw anything or use my fire magic easily.
Ashlei hates swimming too...so...yeah.
A potion of water breathing is 750 gp and lasts for 10 hours.
But you can't drink a potion underwater without a special device (a bladder or sponge I think?). Or the Air Bubble spell.
NOTE: One of the most powerful underwater combat spells when fighting creatures from above water? Dispel Magic. Nasty.
BTW...there are rules for deep water actions. They are not good/easy to mitigate if I remember correctly. Even with magic, they are tough on surface dwellers.
You drink the potion before you go into the water. An extra round isn't going to make a huge difference with a duration of 10 hours.
If you want an extra in case of dispel, a potion sponge costs 2 gp.
Pressure rules start to apply if you go more than 100 feet down (see Aquatic Adventures), I think - my copy is at home so I can't reference it directly at the moment.
DAMN IT I was posting in the wrong thread.
Okay updated my spell list. Between that and whatever Cass retools with we should be able to cover and prep the party pretty well.
Spells (Current prepared list)
Prepared (WIS bonus + Domain), Concentration + (1/2 caster lvl, + WIS)
0 4 [Detect Poison, Purefy Food & Drink, Light, Stabilize]
1 5+1 [Air bubble, Bless, Murderous command, Obscuring mist*, Shield of faith, Marid’s Mastery, Command]
2 4+1 [Mirror Image*, Ironskin, Burst of Radiance, Lesser Restoration, Spiritual Weapon]
3 2+1[ Water Breathing*, Hydrophobia, Free Swim, Free swim]
4 1+1 [Confusion*, Summon Monster 4]
And yeah Ashlei's going to be pretty nerfed.
Fire: Nonmagical fire (including alchemist’s fire) does not burn underwater. Spells or spell-like effects with the fire descriptor are ineffective underwater unless the caster makes a caster level check (DC 20 + spell level). If the check succeeds, the spell creates a bubble of steam instead of its usual fiery effect, but otherwise the spell works as described. A supernatural fire effect is ineffective underwater unless its description states otherwise. The surface of a body of water blocks line of effect for any fire spell. If the caster has made the caster level check to make the fire spell usable underwater, the surface still blocks the spell’s line of effect.
Ok, give me a list of who is going into the water, and what spells or magic items they are using to breath and swim please.
If you're finding this tough you should try Ruins of Azlant. Just finishing it now with my live group and it's a good AP. The first two book don't take you into the water too much, but after that you better have water breathing and a swim speed or you're dead meat!
Ok I'll spend the cash for material cost to scribe four more scrolls of ride the waves. 1,330 gp and one day of work total. Then I cast one on myself and use the scrolls for everyone else.
Rhialla and Ashlei can help with backup spells in case our spells get dispelled while we're under.
Also, is our captain still here?
Thank you Cass - Herzag can use Wands, and will contribute with cash for spells as needed. But he cannot cast spells :P
I only have one spell-like ability. (Burning Hands), but I have a great UMD skill too.
=)
=/
So ride the waves for Percy, Ashlei, Herzag and Cass. I'm all good underwater. Swim speed 60, which I can bump up to 80 with Tidal Swiftness, breathe move as normal, piercing weapon and a stinger when underwater.

Amazing spell Rhialla, thanks!
Tuesday has ambushed me again, sorry but no time to update tonight.
Cass, I hope you speak Aquan, because I doubt any of the rest of us do.
Indeed I do.
Happy Thanksgiving to all who are celebrating it!
Happy Turkey day! =)
Remember! Any shark that's fascinated will do nothing as long as I concentrate on the spell unless you attack it. So once you've taken out the two that didn't get fascinated, the rest of the sharks are out of the fight and you can concentrate on the mer-shark-man.
Yup ignore the fascinated ones
Sorry, I've been very busy the last few days and have no time to update tonight.
No worries DBH - my own posting will probably slow down as we get closer to Christmas ;)
The Christmas madness has hit me again. So no update tonight sorry.
Apologies for the lack of posting guys - had a medical emergency last Thursday, and I am still recovering from it... Trying to catch up as best as possible.
I will also grab this opportunity to let you know I will (hopefully) be travelling from the 18th to the 27th to visit family over the Christmas holidays, so posting will definitely be spotty.
Feel better!
No update tonight. I have a lot of drinking to do. Free drinks! :)
I have no free time this week. Since my parents are elderly I'm going to be spending my time at their place helping out over Christmas. So I'm calling a break until 30/12/19.
I hope everyone has a great time over the holiday and try to stay safe.
Understood! See you at the end of the year.
Still very busy this week. I hope you all had good a Christmas and have a good new year as well.
Probably the 2nd or the 3rd for resuming posting.
Happy New Year everyone!!
Happy New Year!
Ok, I'm back home at last. But too tired to post anything. Hope it was a lot more peaceful for you over the new year.
See you all on Monday.
I've had fun all day with my internet provider. Way behind on things, so no update tonight.
Time for a check. Who is still playing? We haven't heard from some players for a long time.
Still here!
Here
Yo!
=)
Always here :D
Sorry, too busy tonight to update. I'll kill you all tomorrow.
Bah, no need. We are drowning ourselves, don't worry :P
The week of too many people wanting me to do things for them continues. No time to update sorry.
Dammit! I want you to do NOTHING for me!!
Do it!!! DOOO ITTTT!!
=)
Do it for us GM_DBH :D
Sorry, no time to update tonight.
Can I get a complete description on the Magic Ring I'm wearing? I know it helps you find dead people...
Ring of the Iron Skull
Aura faint divination; CL 5th
Slot ring; Price 10,800 gp; Weight —
DESCRIPTION
Crudely cut amethysts and a single engraved skull decorate the band of this thick iron ring. The ring grants its wearer a +5 competence bonus on Appraise checks to determine the most valuable item in a treasure hoard and a +5 competence bonus on Heal checks to ascertain details of a dead creature’s demise.
Once per day as a standard action, the wearer can touch the ring to a corpse or piece of a corpse to learn the dead creature’s name, gender, race, and profession or role, as well as the manner of the creature’s death. The wearer also becomes aware of the location of other pieces of the corpse if they’re within 1,200 feet.
If the body part comes from a creature that’s still alive or undead, the wearer gains no information. The ring of the iron skull must be worn for 24 hours before it starts to function for the wearer.
CONSTRUCTION
Requirements Forge Ring, blood biography (Advanced Player’s Guide 206), locate object; Cost 5,400 gp
