I agree with going for level four, especially considering everyone just got fully healed.
Pressing on to the next area, who takes point?
Yeah- I have more than half of my daily resources left, so I’m definitely good to keep going... and I can take point if you want (although my perception isn’t quite as good as several other people’s)
We’re approaching The Final Countdown for level 4...
Boga can hardly wait for fourth. That's going to be a good one for him.
Boga reads the incantations of two wall of fire spells and a cloudkill spell inscribed on the base of the idol and repeated on the floor around the base of the idol.Boga studies the inscriptions.
--snip--
So the inscriptions on the base and floor are like scrolls? As in, they could be copied to a spellbook or something?

What comes at 4th level for Boga? For Ogon it's 2nd level spells. He doesn't get a vigilante talent at 4th level because of the warlock archetype.

I was thinking those might be the spells that activate when we trigger the trap, how ever it is triggered...
Because Boga multiclassed, he is a level behind the standard cleric. He gets his second level spells. Plus! He gets his bonded holy symbol, so he gets an additional spell per day (spontaneous, any on his list) and he can add magic abilities to his holy symbol (Jan Hus' hand)
With everyone out of the chamber, of course lol
After cheating death and getting the treasure with the Osiris idol trap, each PC has 6,000 XP, enough to advance to level 4! Congratulations!
Nice!
I believe Zagathoth should be completely leveled. I put his +1 attribute into Wis... that may seem odd (especially since it wasn't cresting) but it actually opens up a bunch of options for martial flexibility (especially with some of the combat styles).
Looking a lot beefier there Zag and Johann
After selling the idol of Osiris and dividing the proceeds, each PC would get a share of 2,857 gp value
Here's what Boga did: Oh, look, symbols of cloudkill and firewall. That will probably kill everyone in the room. I think I'll just walk back over to the fountain and not tell anyone... should be nice and safe right next to Jesus's first miracle.
lol, just ribbing you Boga.
In my defense, this is PBP, and I had not seen the intervening posts (such as MJ66's response) when I made mine. PLUS! Johann keeps ninja'ing me. New rule: whenever Johann wants to post, he has to wait 5 minutes for Boga's. Lol
Speaking of resources to benefit the party. Do we want to split things 8 ways to have a share for the party as a whole (such as CLW wands, etc.)?
These are the domains and subdomains that I have worked up for Boga. @MJ66, let me know if any of these do not work for you. The way I am looking at it is that even though the Christian god could conceivably have all domains, these are the ones that he is granting to Boga.
- Charm
- Charm -- Captivation
- Charm -- Love
- Glory
- Glory -- Heroism
- Magic
- Magic -- Divine
- Travel
- Travel -- Trade
- Weather
- Weather -- Storm
- Weather -- Monsoon
- Weather -- Seasons
Working on leveling up now...

Too bad there's no Brawler's Sagacity!
@Johann - If you purchase a pearl of power than I can definitely cast mage armor on you each morning.
Buying things for the party is a good idea but the price is usually small enough that it can just be split from whatever people have left over, I don't think we need a whole share for it.
Also next level (5) I'm planning on taking either craft wondrous items or craft magic arms and armor as my bonus feat. I'll take the other one later but does anyone have a preference for which comes first?

Thanks Quinlan. With MJ's permission that is how I will spent 1000 gold. Though, how would you like us to go shopping, MJ? Should we write it out, or handwave? Also, to what extent are good available for purchase in the city?
MJ has given us plenty of healing capacity now, maybe we should hold off on the CLW wand. That is uber cheesy to spam those, although I understand it is standard procedure.
Quinlan- Johann would love the wondrous item creation first, but your call! I would need to employ your talents for armor creation too someday, although that is far out in the future. But all of us now would be able to afford a stat boosting item if it is crafted.
Has anyone kept track of the gold per character we have now? I definitely have not. If someone has, I'd love to cheat off of you.

I'm going with Arcane Lock and Blur for my 2nd level spells.
Wasn't this our first gold find? I only had 8 gold before this.
We had at least found some gems and stuff (some were quite nice), but I don't have a list. I'd have to go back through the thread, so I was hoping someone else had been tracking.
You can buy anything in Rome.
I made a quick review of the thread, so it is very possible that I missed something, but we have all received
- an initial gift of 500 from the Pope (already spent)
- at least a single magic item (mostly from the pope)
- Rumpelstiltskin bag
- 100 (topaz share)
- 100 (bracelet share)
- 2857 (statue share)
@MJ66, I don't have experience with scribing scrolls. Are there specific supplies that I need to be able to do so? In particular, what do I need to be able to scribe scrolls while out adventuring? I see ink and pens and such for supplies. I just don't see anything on the specifics of what is required for scribing. Would I just say that I have 500 ducats (or however much) of scribing supplies and use that as a pool against which I create scrolls?
Thanks, Boga, that’s helpful!
How is everyone coming along on leveling up to 4th?
@MJ66- Do you need any rolls from us to get over the fever? Also, should we just post purchases here or do you want us to do gameplay posts about shopping?
If everyone could add up the total value of their current gear, plus the 3,057 ducats that each PC should have after selling the statue, and post it here in discussion, that will help me determine how much more (if any) treasure I need to hook you all up with. Thanks for doing that math earlier, Boga!
I'd like to use these days of healing to have Toshio start building his reputation, as per the Renown talent.
Renown (Ex) (Ultimate Intrigue pg. 12): The vigilante becomes known for deeds and abilities regardless of his current identity. This renown grants him favorable treatment in civilized company and lends him an air of menace while facing down his enemies. While he is in his social identity, a vigilante can spend 1 week gaining renown among the locals of any community of no more than about 200 individuals (a village, if using settlement population ranges on page 203 of the Pathfinder RPG GameMastery Guide). This could be the entire community or a smaller neighborhood in a larger settlement. He must spend at least 4 hours each day socializing and making contacts. After spending 1 week doing this, whenever he is in his social identity, all NPCs in the community have a starting attitude toward him that is one category better, as long as each person’s initial attitude would have at least been indifferent (see the Diplomacy skill description on pages 93– 94 of the Pathfinder RPG Core Rulebook for more information). While he gains renown in an area using his social identity, he also spreads rumors and tales about his vigilante identity. Once he has gained renown in a community, he gains a +4 circumstance bonus on Intimidate checks whenever he is in his vigilante identity. This bonus applies only while he is near the community in which he has gained renown; he must be within a number of miles equal to his vigilante level.
A vigilante can hold renown in a limited number of communities (normally one, with other social talents allowing two). If he gains renown in a new community, he must decide which one of his previous communities to lose. These effects are subject to GM approval. For example, the GM might rule that an NPC or monster has not heard any tales about the vigilante. Or, a foe may have a starting attitude toward him that’s one category worse, rather than one category better.
I'm going to start the identity reveal to the party in Gameplay.

Go ahead and post purchases in gameplay.

Everything is decided for me, I just need to find the time to actually edit my profile. Oh I haven't looked at Orpheus's changes yet, though.

The dueling keyboards contest is a great idea. I’ll think about it a bit. Maybe Cosimo D’Medici, Duke of Milan, visiting Rome, hears that both composers are in town and throws a huge ball to showcase his wealth and generosity, and invites the composers to compete for a prize?
Sorry for the unexpected absence. I figured Arc would be unnaturally quiet after the most recent catacombs debacle, considering he's currently being visited by a literal ghost from his past.
Current value of gear should be 6,241 gp (3,184 + 3,057) and 5 sp if I did my math correctly.
Also, fully updated to level 4.

Okay, thanks. (Your banner still says 3rd level FYI)
If Arc has 6,241 gp, he is right about where he should be at 4th level (standard is 6,000 gp).
I don't have the exact value for each of my weapons handy but my total should be very similar to Arc's (just over 3k in weapons and armor + 3,057g).
My level up is complete but I'll have to count up equipment (and get that Gameplay post in) later.

Sounds good. Looks like I’ve doled out the right amount of treasure up to this point.
