The Devil We Know Series (Part IV: The Rules of the Swift) (Inactive)

Game Master Baerlie

Celentrai checking in.

Great, ready to roll when everyone else is.

Have we switch to a different thread and I missed it?

I think still gathering. No new thread I've heard about yet.

quick question. was the creature not damaged because I missed? I am wondering because I was under the impression that spells by pass DR.

You hit, but it's immune to cold. Or did I make a mistake and ray of frost does not do cold damage?

BTW I'm heading off travelling for a week, so posting may be erratic from this weekend.

Thank you for explaining, but of course Celtrai does not know it is immune to cold.

Sorry for the delay. A colleague/friend got fired on tuesday and I was helping him with all the works council stuff. Everything should be back to normal again, at least in the campaigns.

I don't even know if negotiating things like this increases end treasure or not...probably not.

But for Tippy, it's the principal of the thing. The guy admitted he needed them, that put them in the position of power. As far as Tippy knows (maybe incorrectly) they don't even need this guy, and could have just made for that tower on their own and looked for clues.

Unfortunately it does not increase the max. gold on the chronicle. But if you miss something or retreat from an encounter the 100 gp increase the amount you get (up to the max.). For example we can skip the optional encounter and you still get the maximum gold.

Cool final fight! Cinematic.

One question : How do we get to the white keys to begin with? Climb?

hmm what ever will I do with these two grease spells hmmm. I will post tonight.

Evil! Especially on pipes...

@Tippy (from main game thread)

Yeah, those pipes are kind of delicate. There should be progressive penalties for how long folk are leaning on them.

But come on, the actual jumping from key to key - that is very, very cool. At least this organ was built for that. I'm guessing they don't play very fast music :-)

Cool final fight! Cinematic.

One question : How do we get to the white keys to begin with? Climb?

Good question, I think it's also Climb DC10 as for the black keys. The keys are 15ft above the floor.

Clearly somebody spent a bit too much time at FAO Schwartz as a kid...

Heads up that I may not be able to post again until Monday or Tuesday so please GMPC or PCPC if needed to keep the action flowing. I have a very full day of business travel tomorrow followed by a Con where I have heavy GM duties on Fri-Sat-Sun. Monday will be catching up on work and hopefully most PbPs, but I should be fully caught up by Tuesday.

Ok, thanks for telling us :)

We are almost at the end of the mission. I still have the PFS information for Tippy and Iso.
Borrobol and Celentrai, please fill out this form: PFS Form

And don't forget your dayjob rolls!

No day job for Tippy.

Oh yes. Iso has a lot to write about.
The public needs to hear his take on the morning organ music in the cathedral.

1d20 ⇒ 6

It's hard to be objective about your own performance.

Oh wait a moment, he still hasn't put any ranks into profession critic. It is probably just as well.

BTW, I'm holding off posting in the main thread until after Nessian, as he has the drop on Iso.

Do you want to play another scenario?

Always!:)

Sure, if its one I haven't done already of course.

Might be up for another!
Day Job: Craft (armor): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18

For sure!

I have access to all scenarios now, pick whatever you like :) And we can run tgis game as part of Gameday 3 if you like. If we finish before Feb. 1st I think you get a boon for playing.

I think if the game dies it doesn't count. Essentially you have not been issued with a Chronicle for it.

I'm trying to do all the season 0 ones, so if any of those are low tier, I vote for them.

Assuming we survive this last encounter, Iso will be level 3.

As Iso says, if you did not receive a Chronicle it does not count.

I just checked the Season 0 scenarios on the list, they are all 1-7 or 1-5.

Yep, everything I put up was 1-5 or 1-7.

Which one do you want to play? ;)
0-14: The Many Fortunes of Grandmaster Torch?

That one works for me.

Sure

Looks good to me.

Fourthed here!

Merry Christmas Everyone.
