Sounds fun! Have fun. Going anywhere awesome?
Aw, heck yeah! Eight days in Spain, seven days in Morocco, seven more in Italy, then back to Hamburg 'cause that's where our flight home is.
Nice!
Think maybe we should bot Lorien?
:(
Aw man, that sucks. Good luck with your computer shopping.
Aaand I'm back.
I'll update the IC soon.
Everyone still here? (Excepting Keshokkar, who's on a totally awesome vacation)
I'm here. o wo/ And there is absolutely no reason to be concerned that I responded so quickly to your question. I'm definitely not refreshing my campaigns page ten times a minute or anything. And even if I were, there would be no reason to be concerned.
*Kidding*
...
*Probably*
Present.
You recieve 634xp each.
By my count, we're 1300-ish from a new level.
Regarding XP, you should be at 2000(starting xp for lvl 2)+2967, so 33 points from hitting level 3 on the medium xp track, all told.
I should probably put a counter somewhere.
...I admit, I wouldn't mind leveling up before we go to sleep. XD
Right, checking out the secret room then!
I have us at 4967 which is even closer to 3. Leveling before rest would be great, we just don't have that many resources left.
As well you do.
100xp for each of you, should see you to lvl 3.
Levelup Summary:
Level: Kineticist 3
FCB: +1 HP
New Feat: Precise Shot (Oh, how you were needed. XD)
New Class Ability: Elemental Overflow +1
New Infusion: Kinetic Blade (So I can hit in melee if I have to - also, not many other options are available at this level.)
Various skill buffs (mostly to stuff she's already taking)
----
Pretty straightforward levelup, all things considered. XD Nothin' too fancy or complicated to worry about.

Abilities
Keen Recollection: At 3rd level, an investigator can attempt all Knowledge checks untrained.
Trap Sense: At 3rd level, an investigator gains an intuitive sense that alerts him to danger from traps, granting him a +1 bonus on Reflex saving throws to avoid traps and a +1 dodge bonus to AC against attacks by traps. At 6th level and every 3 levels thereafter, these bonuses increase by 1 (to a maximum of +6 at 18th level).
Investigator Talent: I think the classic choice is infusion so that the investigator can buff his comrades...but I really think Gren is neither selfless enough nor bonded enough to this crew to really think along those lines. So in that case I think I'm going with Mutagen.
Feat: Weapon Focus (Rapier) - I'm hoping that we stop fighting so many skeletons or this will bit me in the ass.
Skills:

Acrobatics, Diplomacy, Disable Device, Knowledge Religion, Perception, Sense Motive, Spellcraft, Stealth, UMD

GM - Do you ever foresee us having downtime for crafting? Just wondering if I should plan any alchemy crafting or even use feats or investigator powers.
If it helps, we're close to Bard's Gate and should be able to buy a lot of stuff there if we have more money than time. ^^
That's really what I'm weighing...although it's a few week hike to Bard's gate I think.
GM - Do you ever foresee us having downtime for crafting? Just wondering if I should plan any alchemy crafting or even use feats or investigator powers.
When you get to mid levels, you'll be able to take regular downtime. Until then, you'll more or less be stuck out here, unless you explicitly decide to make the treck back to civilization.
Perfect. Not sure I'd want it another way. Thanks!
Hey, GM, can you clarify whether we need to rest before leveling or not?
You level immediately. The only thing that does not immediately become available to you is spells or extracts that need to be prepared - you'll have to sleep to prepare your new ones.
I'll be on vacation for the next week or so but think I should be good with posting...most will be from mobile though so they may be brief.
Glad to hear it.
As for survival, you can decrease the chance of random encounters with knowledge of where to make camp, but the area remains fundamentally dangerous, and there's not a lot you can do about that.
Arianna finds two potentially suitable sites to make camp within 20 minutes of the entrance.
One is a small cave in the same large rock formation that the burial halls are carved into. You'll be really well concealed here, and there's even a natural chimney in the cave that'll allow smoke from a fire to escape. That said, there's a number of small fissures in the back of the cave that you can't get into. They might allow small-sized creatures to squeeze through, and if the fissures connect to other tunnekls, you might be attacked by dire rats or kobolds or other such vermin during the night.
The other option is a forest clearing, seemingly free of spiderwebs, and with a creek nearby. Not nearly as secluded as the cave, but there's no mysterious fissures to worry about.
Once you've decided where you camp, you should also decide if you set a watch schedule, and if you make a campfire or otherwise keep a light nearby while you sleep.
Fire will probably keep animal predators away, but might attract other sorts of attention. This is less of a concern if you sleep in the cave.
Cave as well. We can always rig something to keep the vermin at bay.
She'll learn, but for now she's pretty naive. I can't wait until we get a chance to o go to Balder's Gate.
Cave it is then.
As mentioned, I'm happy as long as I'm not the first watch, since I'll be the most refreshed and ready to go at that point. XD (For that matter, I can also recharge if we take a break in the middle of the day or something.)
As for keeping vermin out... well, they may have a hard time getting through a wall of rock across the entryway, no?
Ooh yeah. Seal us in. Gren will take last watch and use that time for alchemy.
Works for me. ^^
Kesh has a chain shirt, Pathfinder still lets you sleep in light armor right? Any shift suits him just fine.
