The game is on pause, because of Thanksgiving?

Happy Turkey eating day!

@GM.
Ok, there was a misunderstanding on my side. I assumed, that cold resistance lets you ignore the effects of cold weather. My bad.

Reading up on the rules for cold dangers it reads that characters who have the survival skill might get a bonus on these rolls. Might that be the case here? And how high would that bonus be?

yes you can get a bonus if you make a DC:15 Survive check; however:

rules text:
Gain a +2 bonus on all Fortitude saves against severe weather while moving up to half your overland speed.

You only go 1/2 your speed increasing the amount of checks you'll make by 1/4 [ie. since your speed is 30 and you're already traveling in difficult terrain..you'd reduce your speed to 7.5'...the slowest people in your party are Newmark and Lanfried who are both currently traveling at 10] So yes if you add an extra DC: 19 check to the series of checks I'll allow you to roll survival for the extra +2 to saves on each of the 5 checks...otherwise you have your cold weather gear (gives you a +5 bonus in addition to your static +3 fort) and latter I think favored terrain will help you. Remember if you don't take dmg from the cold due to your dmg reduction the fatigue effect doesn't set in either.

I prepped Endure Elements today, so if you need it let me know by shivering wildly in the snow and passing out from exposure.

Before I post I'd like to know if we start with weapons in hand because of suspicious noise/view/whatever, or not. Because that changes the surprise round action a lot.

Also it looks like we're facing humans, right? Just asking because of Favored Enemy.

The loot tracker I use in my campaigns is attached here.. There is the first tab which shows the pending loot. The second tab can be used to tally actual cash for each player, and the last tab is to show what has been assigned to each player and the approximate value so you can see who is net ahead or behind in distribution. If you like it, we can move it to your campaign page. I have completed for the loot you show in the spoiler, provided the sell value is 1/2 the CRB value of items. I completed the second and third tabs for Hassan, but not for the others. The doc should be editable.

This document should work fine Hassan go ahead and drop it in our campaign doc ...let me know if you have any trouble and I'll attempt to adjust the permissions..

Now I get it! The noblewoman is Elsa! That's also the reason everything is suddenly covered in snow and Arrac is after her to take over the throne from her!

I just can check regularly during the day, sometimes if I'm at work, I can get in an actual post, other times, I can't really take the time for an actual post or can only reply ooc.

Wassillissa in the future let me know on the discussion page (or OOC) what penalties or bonuses you've already incorporated in your rolls..pls. I looked at the -4 and figured that out pretty quick after you wrote...I did have to go to your character profile to make sure you already had applied the fatigued condition...

just a hint a lot of players will put on their avatar what conditions they have that are special as a way of reminding the GM they've already applied the bonuses or penalties...(see Hassan's avatar...I know he has a spell slot open for instance so I don't have to look on his character profile to see if he had a particularly rare spell memorized)

I'll be more clear about the modifiers as an ooc line in the future.

I'll be home all the time between the years, so no game hindrance from my side.

Not sure that a frontal assault helps us if they are in as great a number as our spy told us. Perhaps Wassilissa's approach is our best course. Let's just see what's going on in there before we have to use steel?

Not sure who should write something in game, but it looks like someone should cast gentle repose on the thread if it takes any longer.

guys I'm going to send Letsuna (Lanfried) a bump...if there's no response by Sunday I'll go ahead and bot so we can get moving...

Or you could instead go with the first two to agree on a course of action and move the game on now? I doubt Lanfried will bring in a completely new idea at this point.

We got three readied actions and Lanfried who is busy walking back to us for a while. How about resolving that to the point where the guys show up and the readied actions are used, and take Lanfried as far as he gets on his path until then?
male Snows of Summer

Just in case you guys were wondering why Newmark's celestial Eagle got to hang out for 2 rounds instead of 1 it's because he specialized in the conjuration school of magic and has the Summoner's charm ability which allows him to extend all his summons by 1 round for every 2 lvs (min 1 extra round)..

Also while I'm thinking about it...Hassan could you please put your perception score on your avatar tagline for easier reference? thx..

You are right, of course. I just assuemd the door was shut already. Yes or no?

At least one of the double doors is open as no one stayed they closed it when they came in

So can we assume that Hassan spent his second move actin last round closing the door instead of barring it?

What is the perception check to locate an invisible caster by the sound of the spell?

it’s a DC :20 if he’s within 30ft if you. The only thing you know ( think your perception was 13? 14?) was the mystic murmuring came from the north side of the room. Yes you can use your move to close the door. If you want to bar it a full round action will grab a nearby chair and prop it against the door handles requiring at least as much effort to remove. FYI if you decide to block the door or otherwise bar it give me a disable device check... that way if the bad guy decides to exit that way he has a number to overcome

male Snows of Summer

Hassan seems I made a mistake when I gave you the DC to identify the spell being cast while the priest remains unseen. It seems the spellcraft check is under the same penalties as perception checks when a PC or NPC is unable to actually see the spell being cast. (I assume there's some exception or work around for blind characters)...Anyway, spells with only verbal components I wouldn't apply this penalty too.

However, spells with somatic and/or physical components this penalty would certainly apply to. (Which means at least a +10 to the DC to identify ie. +20 for invisibility -10 for participating in an active battle... (in addition to +1 DC for every 10ft between you and the caster) that's the closest I can get anyway..)

BTW do you even have ranks in spellcraft Hassan? It doesn't seem to indicate you do on your character sheet? Does the witch-hunter archtype allow you to make spellcraft checks untrained?

Anyway the spell craft check for the current spell being cast would be DC:30 with all the extenuating circumstances...well beyond what I could see Hassan or even Newmark detecting at level 1.

Hey All, some things came up this past weekend that will likely keep a large portion of my attention for awhile. I will try to keep up a posting rate, but if I am away for a day please feel free to bot me in combats, I hopefully will find time to at least make a check-in post during RP spot but I cannot promise that. I apologize for any inconvenience in advance.

No woorries. If you don't need me to finish off the bad guys, I'll come back to consciousness in 10 Minutes. Assuming you close the door, and the place is warm. ;)
