The price of a soul

Game Master Traveller Elbin

Seeing that things slowed down in the last few days, I'd just like to say that this is an initiative-less combat and I will be waiting for everyone to either react or state that they are going to be away so that I can play out their actions. You can assume you are in range for all intents and purposes, and also that after the enemy has acted it is your turn (all of you) in any order you wish. You can coordinate actions if you want.

Also, I will be going on leave for the next two weeks, which means that posts from me will be generally a bit slower and possibly in varying times of day.

Good to know. Have yourself a restful time Elbin :)

I feel I should mention that Daka is not hurt in the least. I just meant that he got a glancing blow as an excuse for the bad roll (in fact I should have written glancing blow instead of clashed, poor choice of words). Sorry if that made you charge in Shirak, if you would have otherwise stayed back.

I'm not sure if my roll was a critical threat because the spinal sword is said to have a x3 threat range, so I'm not sure if that means it has an 18/20 range or if it deals x3 damage. Shouldn't matter in this case because I don't think I confirmed, but I'd like to be sure.

Looks like it's just x3 damage on a Nat 20.

The weapons with increased range tend to be listed as 19-20 x2 style. I.E. the dagger.

I'm going out until tomorrow or probably friday, so my posting might slow down. Please bot me if necessary.

Sorry for not clarifying that earlier, I thought it was cleared by RePete's comment. Spine sword has a normal 20 threat range, it just rolls 3 dice for damage on a crit.

Fair enough, thanks for clearing that up.

Well, I should be back to my regular rhythm now that I am back at work. Thanks for bearing with me this vacation period :)

So, does this door not open normally? If not, how big is the lil' window at the bottom?

There is no handle nor hinges in sight. The window is a one by one foot (30 cm) square with two thick metal bars across it.

Thanks :)

Kusanorr can warp three of you to the other side before resting and we would still have to figure a way to bring the last one.

Also one nonlethal damage healed during the walk to the door the party is currently facing.

Sorry guys, but I won't be able to post much this week. Please feel free to bot me when necessary Elbin :)

I'm back again. Sorry for the absence. Thanks for filling in for me Elbin, I'll start posting again tomorrow.

Ok. Things are a bit slow at the moment, the others are taking a break it seems :)

Unfortunately Kusanorr left us due to real-life difficulties, so I've put up a recruitment post to top up the game. Everything will continue as normal. I apologize for being a bit slow on posting lately.

That sucks. Best of luck to him.

We good to continue or need us to hold off while you recruit?

No need to stop, we'll inject the new blood as it comes :)

Sad news indeed! But, new characters will be exciting at least.

Thanks for the chance, guys. It was fun to play with all of you.

Thanks for playing, I really enjoyed your character!

Welcome to the game Reyoris, it's good to have you aboard.

@Traveller Elbin: I assume that the noise came from our newest companion, would we be able to see the light coming from her torch?

Thanks Daka. I'm excited for the game. Reyo seems like she's going to be a lot of fun.

At this point everyone hears what everyone is saying (just a reminder).

Hey all, just a heads up. I will try to get a gameplay post up today if my phone will cooperate OR if I get power back at the house. Hurricane Matthew handed us a hefty outage (24 hours and counting).

Omg! Hope you're safe, I can only imagine the hurricane based on what I saw on the news. So scary..

Good news is I have power! Bad news is I'm still waiting on my ISP to have power. All reports say they should be up by lunch today, so we shall see. As soon as that happens, I'll get a proper post up.

All in all we fared OK. Lost a chunk of fence and have some minor roof work to do. Aside from that, we're OK. :)

Sorry for the slow update during the weekend, we're teething :)

You have my sympathies. We aren't quite to teething yet, we just transitioned the twins to their cribs this weekend. Not looking forward to when they start cutting teeth. :)

Good luck! Can only imagine the happiness you guys are feeling

No problem. It worked out for me. Brother go married and it was a hectic couple days.

Happy Wednesday all! Hopefully the middle of the week mini-boss isn't hitting too hard!

If anyone needs a bot-hand just say the word :) I will push things after another day of no activity.

Tie Up: If you have your target pinned, otherwise restrained, or unconscious, you can use rope to tie him up. This works like a pin effect, but the DC to escape the bonds is equal to 20 + your Combat Maneuver Bonus (instead of your CMD). The ropes do not need to make a check every round to maintain the pin. If you are grappling the target, you can attempt to tie him up in ropes, but doing so requires a combat maneuver check at a –10 penalty. If the DC to escape from these bindings is higher than 20 + the target's CMB, the target cannot escape from the bonds, even with a natural 20 on the check.

Found the stuff about tying up someone/thing

It may be better if we stop trying to help Daka. :-P

Also, kind GM. I'm unlikely to be able to post again until Monday. If you could bot me over the next 2 or 3 days, I'd appreciate it.

Hehe, I admit I didn't read that part properly. I thought it would be easier for others to help :)

I hope I haven't made it boring for people by doing all this grappling stuff.

Well, I admit I haven't read those rules either, and have been playing it by ear making stuff up on the fly for this. Please let me know if you feel things are too freeform :)

I'm happy with freeform, it's a much more dynamic experience than the normal PFS game! It lets me explore roleplaying a bit more than the standard PFS games. I like those too but with this it strikes a balance for my learning experience. :)

I'm back. The freeform aspect has been entertaining. The visual of the little human and flower trying to trip the giant rock machine was amusing. :-D

I love the coin interplay. Definitely something I haven't seen before. :)

Sorry for the slow response guys, I've gotten the flu and with the baby it's a nightmare.

Thanks for the dramatic moment, and get well soon ;)

You provoke such happenings, where do you think I get my inspiration?

"Hey guys! I've stepped on something! Should I pick it up?"

Couldn't help giggling at that :)

Hey GM, does Torcet know how to cast what he is reading? Or does he only know of its knowledge? :)

Neither :) He thinks he knows the meaning (or was that what you meant by knowledge?) of the words he sees on the page. He does not know if anything will happen if he reads them. And that is his choice alone, he is not compulsed to do it.

Check your PMs before posting too ;)

So, survived black Friday, did we? :)

I'm sorry Elbin, but you may need to bot me for a few days. Assignments are piling up and I can't concentrate on my posts at the moment.

No worries, same here.

I'm back :) I'll start posting properly again tomorrow.

Welcome back, I hope you'll approve of the way you "behaved" in the meantime :)
