A few notes:
I don't think I've mentioned this, but all of the leather armor you've found has been masterwork.
Also, it seems like there's still a bunch of stuff missing from the loot sheet. I'd suggest marking things down a little clearer. (Such as the cloaks, even if unidentified.) It's very difficult to look back through the records to figure out what unidentified relics might be and you might forget to later identify magical items. You'll probably want to mark down which ones are magical but unidentified as of yet.

One more time before you leave the area I'd suggest going through the loot list and making sure you have everything you found listed. After you leave and perhaps sell some things it will be *much* tougher to fix!
As for Assam, I'm hesitant to turn to the recruitment thread to replace another player so soon. I'll think on it a bit more and see where I end up on it.
Leto V. Derexhi |
I just looked over the loot sheet and i´m very unsure what i could do about it, since i feel i´m missing some info.
I heavily vote to sell everything we don´t need though as soon as possible.
Leto V. Derexhi |
Essentially someone needs to sort through the thread and see what we found since the last time it was done?
When was the last time this was done?
I suggest we go about this a bit differently.
1. Use key words every time in the thread when we refresh the loot sheet.
2. Split responsibility
3. Best do that on the regular, so we don´t have to sort through too much stuff.

Alright, I'm actually about at the end of my rope concerning the loot list. I track loot in all of the games I play in, so I'm not interested in also tracking loot here (and it's in your best interest to do it). Looking through the loot list, I can't actually figure out what's going on there.
I realize that after Setesh left we had no one tracking it so I went through and wrote down everything that was missing up until that point (my post on Mar 5, 2017, 09:29 pm). But not even everything on that list got put on the sheet.
I'm willing to go through and list everything found in the hideout since then, but if I do, I expect the loot sheet to be updated and remain updated. It can be edited by anyone with the link.

Is the studded leather armor also masterwork?
The unappraised assorted relics are the items that we found the Silver Chain had looted from various tombs, and I think we were going to try to return them.
Leto V. Derexhi |
Oh my. I´ll take a look at the sheet from now on, but there´s a possibility i can only mainly do it on weekends.
Might come up with a different excel sheet as well when i find the time.
I think i can manage some time today to go through things and will update the sheet then.

Yes.

I'd suggest actually writing them down (along with the description). *Especially* for items that are unappraised. Othrwise there is no way for me to figure out what items you are referring to.

Thanks GM! I'll update that on the lot list as good as I can this week and on the weekend.

I've updated the loot list. I put half the value of the wine, the statue, and the silver chains as the resale value, if that's OK. I see Almathea identified some of the items, and will get those up. GM L, could you check my work?
ETA: I'm presuming that the bracers of armor and the bird feather tokens are the ones already on the loot sheet but noted as unidentified? I took off the unidentified tag and added values for them.
Game Master Listener |
Looks good to me!
And yes, the feather token and bracers were already listed but "unidentified".
For items that are "goods" such as jewelry, wine, and art the sale value is the full value. Essentially any weapons/armor/equipment are sold at half (or worse at the moment given the nature of the city), but other things are full value sales. Though again, currently you wouldn't be getting full value for anything, but that's a function of the state of the city rather than DnD economy in general. :)
Leto V. Derexhi |
Well, four of us and the GM are already playing steady since June 27, 2015. At a slow but very steady pace. That´s already something great i think.
Leto V. Derexhi |
Just looked it up and was surpised myself. Hope we can go on all the way to the end^^ It´s coming more and more together and the rp is also improving. Characters grow over time :)

Updated. Are the funerary masks considered to be goods?
Almathea |
No to the Catfolk rogue, not enough of a frontliner and I hate Catfolk.
Naga is interesting.
Of the two Warpriests, I think I would chose Pharasma over Ra.
I like the Oread Fighter, but the Prestige class he wants sucks for him.
The Ulfen Ranger seems decent.
Leto V. Derexhi |
I´m a bit uncertain if the catfolk or naga would fit into the group, since we don´t have anything in that direction yet.
My vote would go for a warpriest probably.
Almathea |
Hello new meat-shield. Er, new player I mean. :)
Given the current situation, maybe the warpriest could be the last person left of another group that we pick up along the way to whichever baddie we are heading?
Leto V. Derexhi |
Perhaps the priests can suggest him to us or we find him on the street as a survivor.

Nuru Anhkguard IV |
Hello, Squishy! ;p
Nuru isn't about riches or fame, so, being a survivor of another group exploring the necropolis would be stretching it. I think it would be more plausible that he was sent by the church of Pharasma to assist the party. Perhaps she was a guard/officer at the Grand Mausoleum. She's seen the party and knows about their adventures within the necropolis and afterwards.
I've done a little reading about the Half-Dead City, so I know the basic story you've gone through to date. However, other than the two sentence description on the paizo website, Empty Graves. Could I get a quick run-down of the events so far? With that base knowledge, I'll go back and read the gameplay thread since book #2 started.
Thanks
Marnarius |
I agree; given that she's a Pharasmin warpriest it's not beyond plausible that Sebti would ask that we take her as a representative of the temple. After, of course, assuring us that Nuru could pull her own weight ^_-.
Leto V. Derexhi |
Uh giving a short description^^
First i need to remember everything!
Essentially it boils down to us going on treasure hunt, being ambushed by that other party, finding some clues about something going on, the undead raiding the city, us finding more clues about something going on and the silverchain gang being linked to it, the investigation of that, then finding out it´s actually not just the gang, but some kind of cult with unknown figures behind it who triggered the undead raid most likely as part of some greater events.
That´s very basic.
Marnarius |
That was...succinct. But seriously...

I'm really thinking about a level of two of Inquisitor for some more skill shenanigans. That would round out Leto pretty well I think m

Ranged weapons and ammunition FAQ which is rather gamechanging if not played like that before:
FAQ 1:
Magic Ranged Weapons and Ammunition: When a ranged weapon shares its enhancement bonus with its ammunition, does this count as “true” enhancement bonus or more like a temporary bonus like greater magic weapon? In other words, does the shared enhancement bonus allow the arrow to bypass damage reduction as if it was cold iron, silver, adamantine, and aligned?
No, other than the ways indicated in the Core Rulebook (if the ranged weapon is at least +1, they count as magic, and if the ranged weapon is aligned they count as that alignment as well) the enhancement bonus granted to ammunition from the ranged weapon doesn’t help them overcome the other types of damage reduction. Archers and other such characters can buy various sorts of ammunition or ammunition with a high enhancement bonus to overcome the various types of damage reduction.
FAQ 2:
Gaining a higher bonus that does not itself bypass DR (like greater magic weapon or transferral from a ranged weapon to its ammunition) does not remove the ability to bypass DR via the original bonus.

I'm doing ok on spells for now, and if we do end up fatigued from lack of rest, we have a wand of lesser restoration that can get everyone back in fighting shape.
I think it's important that we find time to rest before sundown though, as it might be another long night of horrors, so we'll want to rest 9 hours before sundown. Do we have any time left before that?
Leto V. Derexhi |
I´ll be on a business trip this week and can´t guarantee interent access or posting sadly, but will do my best.
There´s very tough time ahead of me untill the end of the next month workload wise, so if i´m slow in responding, i´m not gone, just overworked and will show up again.

(Moving to Discussion.)
Mh think it´s better only to use knowledge everyone in the party shares. I made some really bad experiences with players who had preknowledge and looked up things, making the story "their own" by abusing knowledge of characters, sites and events.
It's a fine line, but in this particular case I think I can argue that the characters know the city in a way that the players don't (and have had no need to know). WRT events & characters, though, and anything other than superficial locations I agree with you entirely.
