This is a really good defensive spell. Front liners would benefit from it, were they able to cast the wand.
But really, Rush. its a great boost for anyone not wearing plate.

Good point Jack, if used correctly I'd be happy to entertain the intimidate angle


Male Human Swashbuckler Lvl 5

cool. we'll see if a situation comes up where that would be effective.


Male Human Swashbuckler Lvl 5

not sure how away the "metallic" thing is above Jack's head. Can he just reach up and grab it? Or should Tap climb up on his shoulders (and then Tack onto Tap's?)


It's about ten feet above the water surface, so still several feet above your upraised arms, were you to walk out into the water. Of course, you don't know how deep that is.


Male Human Swashbuckler Lvl 5

i'm just thinking that if we can find the trigger, and if Tap can trigger it with his mage hand spell, then we have what could be a really awesome trap to spring on our enemies.


Check your XP guys;)


Nice!
Do we upgrade now, or after the day ends?


You can upgrade now


Male Human Swashbuckler Lvl 5

awesome


Tap figures that the trap falling was so loud that any near monster would investigate. Better that they thought us dead and trapped than alive and free.


Male Human Swashbuckler Lvl 5

it will probably take a couple days for me to update my character


Current HP: 28 of 28 Sylph Oracle 5

I'm happy with my new spot.


No problem Jack; we can slow a bit for Belliott and Kerruk to chime in, as well.


Tap is leveled up...


Male Human Swashbuckler Lvl 5

2 things. posts delete duplicate spaces, and there is no [pre] or [code] options to preserve them. ugh.

and oops, i polluted the game thread accidentally, and can't delete comment. sorry.


Lol, np Jack. Wish I could delete, you'd think I'd be able to as GM, but oh well


Male Human Swashbuckler Lvl 5

i ended up moving the char sheet to github sorry for the extra click.


That looks pretty good Jack (at github). Might consider putting bold accents on total columns though.

GM Nayr. Hope you and your back are feeling better.


Haven't see Mr A around for a while Hope everything is all right.

Actually haven't seen Belliott around much either.


Thanks Sub, all good here - mending in my nifty aircast.

Yeah, I was hoping one or both would check in before we continue...not that there's anything big coming up or anything.

...whistles a tune...


I actually like that layout quite a bit, Jack


Current HP: 28 of 28 Sylph Oracle 5

I believe the plan (to answer your question from the other thread Mr. DM) is to collect our friends and then overthrow the captain and his officers. Is that right, guys?


Most definitely Rush...after all our companions level up :)


Gosh, things move fast around here...sorry guys, wife and son have had cold/flu type issue PLUS I've been pulling extra shifts covering for sick people at work too. All good for now i hope.


No problem Mr.Apollinax. Just got worried about ya.

I hope your family is feeling better. It's the worst when your kids and spouse get real sick.


hmmm....levelling up? Great! Except I now have to decide whether to level up as Shaman or Rogue....


Male Human Swashbuckler Lvl 5

i vote rogue (not that i have a vote). that slot is empty in the party.


Male Human Swashbuckler Lvl 5

you are a shaman who, perforce, has had to go rogue. life circumstances of being conscripted onto a pirate ship.


Welcome back Mr A and hope everyone feels better!


Current HP: 28 of 28 Sylph Oracle 5

I am trying to save Rush's remaining spells for combat on the ship. He's pretty useless without them.


Male Human Swashbuckler Lvl 5

what is guidance again?


Male Human Swashbuckler Lvl 5

do you think that your character can use a bow or a sling? Rush has valuable non-combat skill-set, but it would be nice if you could launch a few missiles from a safe distance.


Current HP: 28 of 28 Sylph Oracle 5

Guidance is +1 to your next d20 roll. I have a sling, but I'm not great with it and I don't have precise shot. So these close quarters make using it even more difficult.


FleetFooted Halfling 39/39 hp |Loot|The Shackles Map

In terms of saving spells, I do not envision us wanting to take on the captain on this day..but no earlier than the following morning. We have the day, to get two allies back and maybe some more loot.

Buffing with guidance is a fine use of time. An I can see that an invisible summoning/buffing oracle can be quite a hinderance to enemies (as summoning is not attacking and does not remove the invisibility).


Welcome back Belliott! Please let me know what you're doing - are you trying to back out of the cloud?


Guys, make sure you're leveled up before we get into this one...you may need it.


M Human Barbarian/4

alright I'm mostly leveled up (Good deal more hp,more strength, healing rage power, better saving throws) I just need to sort out my skill points.


Male Human Swashbuckler Lvl 5

reminds me. I need to sort out my misc. equipment list (e.g. potions, and the like).


Male Human Swashbuckler Lvl 5

If we can entice that beast to come into the middle of us all, we might all get a nice flank on it.


Levelled up. A second level in Rogue. A bit better in combat - especially on a ship - and now with Disable Device...

Nice...


Sounds like a beast..and the map has a big icon.

Shall we think strategy?

1. I am not yet supposing that it is too big to go through all the side passages on the map, but if it is too big for the outer passages, then we may have an advantage or an escape route.

2. The center of the map is unknown, lets not let this thing push us into an area trap like we just sprung.

3. Alternatively, if Rush summons monster behind the beast, it would give us all flank bonuses.Getting Jack and Belliot to flank it would be good.

4. I have some debuff spells im going to try, if it looks to a not undead.

5. Belliott, please accept Tap's Inspire Courage song :)


Also, I may have gained flanking bonuses in the past while using my bow, but that is incorrect per my reading of the rules. My apologies..


Male Human Swashbuckler Lvl 5

i guess its my lot to wait and see what the squiddys gonna do.


Sad if we had all run, now wouldn't that be Jack?


Male Human Swashbuckler Lvl 5

anyway we can beach this creature? any magic to make water disappear?


Male Human Swashbuckler Lvl 5

its will save bonus is pretty poor. try again.


Current HP: 28 of 28 Sylph Oracle 5

Hey guys, I'll be out of town for most of the weekend (wedding), so I'll not be posting until Monday night.

Mr. DM, sir, please feel free to control my character. I'm going to have the elemental attack each round that it is alive.
