Sorry about the past few days- I have things to do tommorrow but will post tommorrow night- I don't think we can beat Mr. Sinew Bones here... with what appears to be spell resistance and signifigant damage reduction- a brief tactical withdrawal- with Sunny and Don - may be our best bet. This is just Sorval's tatical read (with assumptions) on the situation-since I don't think we can win without dropping the cave on us.
I would give you more, but your knowledge and this thing's weird physiology means your characters have no idea of how hurt it is.
It does, however, contain a lot of holes now. And leaks juices.
Am up for a orderly retreat
*Continues to cry and rage against the fates as poor Donaon continues to slip away*
Wait- am I aware of Donoan's condition?
Edit:I'll hop back a step and throw my CLW potion at Sunny so she can use it.
Sunny *Glomp-hugz Sorval* (^_^)
Meaning that you have to take your whole turn to move back and retrieve the potion?
I would save that pot for Ruul :D
Victory does not taste so sweet as when it is hard won sometimes, yes?
And we haven't won yet :/
Define victory!
Bad guys down, good guys standing :D
I'm not trying to get you guys to blame eachother, merely experience a wide variety of things.
Including fear.
It's working.
6>w<9 This is my doing and my fault (jerk move, I know), with all of you put into a difficult situation being that you slice through most problems like butter with a hot knife. The upside? High risk=High reward.
The only check that would seriously help in identifying how weak this creature is is Knowledge Arcana. Following that, you could try an intelligence check, with some deliberation.
Otherwise, it's a guess.
Because Sunny's calling for help, and that hasn't happened yet (the player told me they wouldn't be around, and the DMPCing had her helping you but missing because the dice roller sucks?). That, and there's still time. You never know what can happen until it does.
If the worst happens, don't fret.
It's just a game and I am dedicated to getting things fun again in one way or another (with minimal pain on all our parts).
That wasn't me pulling a punch. Constrict damage can only be continual when the monster maintains the grapple, from what I've found.
If Sorval hasn't posted tomorrow to change the set action from before, I'll send her back to it.
The CR on that custom monster was a bit high for you guys. If it had started critting, we'd be looking at a higher body count. High risk=High reward.
Ruul can take it ;)
I doubt your party will let you die.

Put a point in't Healin'. A point in't "Sensin' motive"'. A point in't craftin' me wood workin' (Cause now I can be takin' ten on me makin' stuffs out'a wood). An' a point in't tha' healin' arts, cause I were watchin' rilly, rilly, rilly hard at whut Hersh/"Fuzzy" were doin' with tha' fixin' of Donaon. (^_^)
Still thinkin' about whut trait ta' be addin'. There be both so many ta' choose from an' so fewer types ta'; pick as Sunny already has four. :P
I also hope Sunny will be more active and deserving of this leveling up. *Bows*
Very much cheers ta' all.
I am considering taking a level in Alchemist or Witch for Healing- I don't have the scores for any divine magic- and we will probably need healing again at some point. I think that might break character for her- What do you guys think?
Good Idea... but She would need a patron for that- and I don't think she has had time to do that- what are your thoughts on the matter TET?
You can get the spirit or death patron easily through finishing this dungeon, though with some work on my part in the writing. You have to go into the daaaaark and forebooooooding places, yes.
I'm not familiar with that? Do you have a link?
Do you allow 3rd party content TET- I'm interested in acouple of Magi Arcana and would like to run them by you first. I'll be back in four hours- I have a light shift to work.
Run them by me, yes.
Ah, man... I was used as my friend's garbage disposal for Hot and Sour soup... I am... ughhhh.... should not. have. done that.
I think I'm going to wait for the arcana I would like- I would link it but copy&paste isn't an option right now- but it's called: Jinx Blending...
Level up
Spells added- True Strike and Vanish
Magus Arcana- Arcane Accuracy
Feat- Nimble Striker (Catfolk racial- ARG)
Skills(chose an additional skill point-5)-+1 Craft(Weapons))+1 Knowledge(Arcana)+1 Knowledge(Engineering)+1Spellcraft +1 Use Magic Device
What traits would you think fit my character's growth- guys.
No idea unfortunatly. Perhaps something that helps strengthen a weak skill?
Do you have/Can you take the trait which lowers the 'Meta-magic' cost?
Then take the meta-magic which increases the dice cap of, say, shocking grasp?
Turn a 5D6 spell into a 10D6 spell for no 'extra' spell level cost?
Just a thought?
Also, not meaning Suny to be rude, or pushy or anything...but marching people off to be slaughtered just strikes me as wrong. Yah, I know they've done bad things... But isn't 'redemption' also a part of life?
Sorry to wax all philosophical over every thing and all.
Very much cheers to all.
*Engages in some extra skipping, bouncing and giggling to make up for all the seriousness they've injected into the discussion...*(^_^)
I also advocate one second chance for them- if they refuse; we take em back... if they later break their word... we break them.
Is Soaring Sprinter okay; Trout?
Yes it is, Sorval.
*HUGZ Sorval* (^_^)
Wishin' every one all'a bestest.
Misses the fishes.
