I'm still here. I'd like to continue the game, although hopefully with fewer weeks-long gaps.
I'll do my best. *remorseful*
Still around.
Still here! I don't leave games unless I really have to.
But I am sorry to see Kyrax go...
I will leave it to the DM. But perhaps we could have an NPC Kyrax as we already lost one character in these caves without any mention. I don't want to make things difficult for you and I understand if it is easier to just get rid of or kill him off.
I just don't enjoy having characters vanish is all.
I know our DM is just dealing with life issues and do not mean to apply more pressure, but if we have a chance of getting back to daily posting they I can stay. The pace, with the stops and starts, is painful tome though. Too many disconnects and I am not attached to the character and do not recall the motivations. Then the story looses interests. Its like reading a chapter of a book one night a month.
Sorry, I am in Breckenridge Colorado for a quick ski trip. I hope to have time to post some, but that did not happen this first travel day. Totally exhausted and have to get up early.
That's me today, except substitute work for the ski trip. :p
Thank you for putting it in those terms, Kyrax. I am guilty of the same fault as DM here, and have lost a player for similar reasons.
Makes me realize it better.
Okay, I will update again on saturday, come snow or high water. Anyone who hasn't posted by then will be botted by me.
Fair?
ok by me.
Incidentally, if anyone here would not mind playing in another slow-moving game, I am currently looking for another player :)
This is a gothic game. Although thematically horror, it's so far more of a mystery story in an English college at the end of the 19th century.
One update, here for your enjoyment. So long as you don't mind the opportunity to get wallopped by an Ogre with a big hammer... ^^;
Before I forget to mention: standing from prone equals AoO, which is why 'Sarge' got in that trip attack against Kyrax. If only the Acrobatics roll had succeeded... :-\
AIUI, standing from prone triggers an AoO when you start to get up, so you're still prone and can't be tripped again.
Hmmm... Shall we just transfer it to a straight slap-attack, knocking Kyrax back down?
Sure, but if he does not have improved trip .... :)
Oh, and please let me know here in the OOC thread what kind of changes you're making with the level-up. ;) I like to at least try and keep track...
Changes: noticed that I had two combat tricks missing, from the Martial Training Rogue [swashbuckler] ability. Picked Precise Shot and Combat Expertise.
3rd level feat: Improved Disarm
Aside from this, took the following skills:
acrobatics, bluff, disable device, perception, sense motive, sleigth of hand, stealth, diplomacy, knowledge (nobility), appraise.
Increased 6hp. Went from 3 (15) to 9 (21).
Thanks, DM! How do you prefer to handle hit point increases? Average or roll for it?
Another question: I'm considering the Enforcer feat, but I need a DM ruling, please. The description of that feat begin, "When you deal nonlethal damage with a melee weapon..." Would you allow for that apply when Zhu uses his Touch of Agony special ability? While it's spell-like in natural, it's a melee touch attack and, usually, the hand is considered a weapon in those situations.
Pontia's saves go to +2 Fort/+2 Reflex/+4 Will, no increase in BAB.
HP: 4 + 1 (CON) + 1 (favored class) = 6 HP increase
Feat: Augment Summoning
Spells gained: Web and Summon Monster II (no surprise there, I hope)
Skills (6 ranks + 1 racial):
+1 rank Spellcraft
+1 rank Knowledge (Arcana)
+1 rank Knowledge (Planes)
+1 rank Sense Motive
+1 rank Intimidate
+1 rank Knowledge (Nobility)
+1 rank Linguistics (learning Aquan, so now she can talk to any sort of elemental she might summon)
I've got her sheet updated.
10 HP = 37
+1 BAB = +3
+1 Reflex = +2
+1 Will = +0
4 Skill Points
Climb +1
Knowledge Dungeoneering +1
Handle Animal +1
Survival +1
Combat Reflexes Feat: Additional Attacks of Opportunity equal to dexterity modifier. (+1 Atk of Op)
Armor Training Class Ability: +1 Dex Bonus max and decrease armor check penalties by 1.
Sheet and profile updated to reflect this.
Thanks, DM! How do you prefer to handle hit point increases? Average or roll for it?
HP is maximum + Con. modifier at first level, then half of maximum + Con. modifier +1 at consecutive levels.

Hmm... You're welcome to take the Enforcer feat, but I'm going to veto using it in conjunction with Touch of Agony. While the hand may be used as a weapon, it isn't one; it's still an unarmed attack, just one augmented by magic.
Mirandix is done.
Feat: Improved Sunder. (seemed silly to get bonuses to doing it and risk an AoO every time)
Skills: +1 Perception, +1 Stealth, +1 Survival
HP: +7
Other: +1 BAB, +1 Ref, +1 Will
Gained Overhand Chop: double strength bonus when making single attack with two-handed weapon.
While the hand may be used as a weapon, it isn't one; it's still an unarmed attack, just one augmented by magic.
Well, if a wizard attacks with, say, chill touch, that wouldn't be considered an unarmed attack, but I won't debate the point.
I'll go with Improved Initiative for his feat. Also:
New hit point total: 14.
Choosing an extra skill point instead of a hit point this time...
Skills: +1 to Appraise, +1 to Intimidate, +1 to Knowledge (Arcana), +1 to Use Magic Device.
New spells: Ray of Enfeeblement (bloodline spell), Forced Quiet.
New bloodline ability: Altered Form. Can change shape (as alter self) for one minute per caster level each day.
I'll level up when I get a moment
Kyrax takes another level of Ninja and finally has BAB +1. :)
His reflex save increases by +1.
He takes Vanishing Trick as his Ninja trick
He gains a feat and takes: Flag Bearer, If that is a legal feat in this game. Note that is is from Inner Sea World Guide.
He gains 7 skill points, spending them thus:
+2 acrobatics to a 10
+1 to Perception for a 5
+1 to sense motive for a 3
+1 to stealth for an 8
+2 to use magical device for an 8
So, who wants which item and how will you split the loot?
Honestly, Arma is not that materialistic so she won't ask for much of anything during the adventure except for a fair share to survive on, and even then she is trusting and gullible enough that you could probably talk her out of it.
But if no one else will take them, then the Sleeves of Many Garments would be something she would be interested in, though she doesn't know if she could even use them.
Until a weapon or something that will break a curse shows up though she will not really speak up though.
Most of that loot was consumables, right? I have heard of people using the Sleeves of Many Garments to make a Swarm Suit, but that is sorta cheesy. If we were where we could easily buy and sell stuff I'd recommend we sell everything. But as is, the magic items should be divide out. Those sleeves would be good for someone who might use, or need to use (glance at Arma) disguise.
I'll have to wait until I can check d20pfsrd, as it's blocked at work.
Well, if Arma can use them she would. Like I said she would be interested if it was possible but with her "condition" it may not. I don't think armor is an outfit. Of course since the sleeves can let someone who is social or sneaky already be more so (Glance to Kyrax & Robert) or who needs or wants to dress up fancy (Glance at everyone including herself) do so there are other uses outside of such adventure options.
But if no one wants them and she can use them, Arma is happy to take them!
Updated
Zhu is interested in the riffle scroll for Infernal Healing. (He could take the Barkskin scroll, but he'd have to roll Use Magic Device in order to cast it, so that's not his first option.)
Pontia would also like the infernal healing riffle scroll, but to copy it into her spell book.
Be my guest. ;-)
Happy Easter!
I'll be out of town and unable to post until perhaps later if at all today.
Hope you guys have a wonderful holiday too!
Happy Easter, everyone. ^_^
Here's a quick teaser for you all: beyond the doors at the end of the corridor
The end of this stage of the adventure is in sight! Yay!
You just need to get past the welcoming committee. Alive. :D
Quiet in here this week...
Sorry; had an ISO audit this last Thursday, and a bunch of people over this weekend.
-Posted with Wayfinder
Starting tomorrow, I'm going to be visiting family for the week, and at least one of those days I won't have any internet access at all. So a big slowdown is likely. Feel free to bot Bydar if you need to.
Sorry for any inconvenience.
Understood. Say hello to the clan for us! ^^
This week I am also on holidays. I still have internet access but may have other things to do that prevent me from coming online.
Dear, dear... Well, I hope you'll have a lovely time!
School and work are taking my time, it'll be over soon
Focus on what's important, Noya - and I mean school and work. ;) I'm glad you're still with us, but RL takes precedence.
Sorry, power was out in my home for a day and the rest of the time I have been busy but back!
Hey I am still here. Was gone Friday very early til late last night. Thought I would have internet but barely had a cell phone signal most of the time. And I was super busy. I am trying to catch up.
