Probably stuff not made out of a rare gemstone. :-P
Perhaps see if one of those potions is healing so Helgar can get patched up.

Rare my aunt fannie. An obsidian weapon is 75% the normal price iirc
Sorry for getting everyone into trouble. If I am missing on a 19 base roll, then it is time for everyone to leave.

I've made this encounter specifically to target certain tactics and force the party to think about this more actively. I'm sorry that it's been going so badly.
Male Dwarf Korak
Trying to foster the use of teamwork feats like Broken Wing Gambit?

No not feats, just mindset. I would like to ask each of you to really evaluate the situation you're all in. Work with each other (either in the discussion, or ooc in the gameplay) to determine a better course of action. Don't forget to use skills, especially knowledge/spellcraft skills, in order for your characters to understand the situation better.

I could always use Know-Geography to confound them with questions about landmarks.

Okay then. potions, magic armor, 2 sets hide armor, all unholy symbols, set of ear rings, 2 doses of poison are not accounted for in this
Is the hide armor hide shirt light armor or hide medium armor? Can't find a price for the ear rings and the poison needs to be identified.
The price of all the loots from the glassworks, this doesn't include our previous total is 2424 gold and 5 silver.
I have to say this, I think we should either destroy the unholy symbols or entrust them to the church. Maria is for the loots but as a player, I want those things destroyed in case they might come back to bite us in the ass later.

Hide Armor is the medium armor. Ear rings need an appraise check.
Male Dwarf Korak
then that can be handled later when we're not in god knows how much danger. 2439.5 G

I'll be getting to a faster pace soon. I just want Ali to get a chance to speak before we continue. You know, rescuing your big sister and all that stuff. I want him to have a brief moment.

In the meantime, I would like to congratulate you all on being the first group to ever successfully rescue Ameiko. My other groups never cared enough to bother rescuing her. I know that sounds ludicrous, but they were not into making connections with NPCs at all, and barely even knew who Ameiko was.

Shameful. Innkeepers are an adventure's best friend.
|| Raging (controlled): 9/12
Haha Cleo, indeed.
I haven't played Rise of the Runelords this far before (amazing as it may seem), but I find that really strange TreasureFox. Because even if you don't strive for connecting to NPCs, you are still supposed to be the good guys/gals, right?
Male Human Unchained Summoner / Level 3 / HP [30/11] / AC 16 / T 13 / FF 13 / Fort +2 / Ref +3 / Will +4 / Initiative +2 / Perception +1
This is the first time I have played Rise of the Runelords at all really. But even then, I love Ameiko as a character, always have. I have run Jade Regent so I am familiar with her.
Male Dwarf Korak
What is the connection there? I saw her mentioned and was surprised to see it. And I don't get that, I mean, I understand being closer to the PCs, but not bothering to cultivate any type of relationship with the locals?

I agree, I find it surprising that they never try to rescue her.
Also, she's in Jade Regent? Never played that AP before. Interesting that an NPC would be in multiple APs like that.
Male Dwarf Korak
This also strangely enough not the first time I've played a game where we saved a character that the GM had never seen survive that module before.
Depends on the NPC I guess. Kind alike Council of Thieves, the whole 'rebel group' that is set up in Book 1 pretty much vanishes aside from the two leaders in book 2 unless everyone works with them.
Help support my Ko-fi addiction l Loot List
Yeah in Jade Regent she's a very major character, practically a DMPC. I've never actually played/read through it though. Lol my group was essentially a walking mercenary group of absolute death and destruction. But anyways, I digress. I'm quite happy with our game, near-deaths included =P
Male Dwarf Korak
We're the ominous breathing sounds flavor from the GM or are they part of the AP? I've got an idea I want to use.
Help support my Ko-fi addiction l Loot List
Technically they are not part of the AP, but it isn't just flavor. You could try something if you'd like.
Male Dwarf Korak
I can modify it easily enough. Time to introduce my power.

Is everything okay? Silence is disturbing.
Help support my Ko-fi addiction l Loot List
I'm okay, is anyone waiting on me?
Male Dwarf Korak
Kinda. I'm waiting on either the guards or Vandra with an emphasis on Vandra
Help support my Ko-fi addiction l Loot List
I wanted to make it more of a conversation between you and Vandra, as I figure you don't want to make lasting bonds with NPC green guards.
So tell me Mr. 1st level warrior, what are your hopes and dreams for the future?

Sorry, everyone. Fighting off a bad headcold and overtime at work. Will post now.
Was also waiting on my KnowArcana check.

Yeah! The voices are talking again... or writing again, which sounds less crazy... doesn't it?

If you were a goblin, writing would be absolutely terrifying.

I'll probably move the story along in... let's say 7 hours ish? I think we've given enough opportunity to post. I wouldn't mind wrapping up the rest of the day.

Apologies for the absent posting people - I am travelling since very early Monday, and thought I would have time to post. I was wrong.
I am resuming posting today, and will be travelling back home tomorrow, so should be catching up in the evening, unless I crash from exhaustion :P

Guessing we're going to get a lot of this type of post

Sorry for my slower posting last few days. Getting swamped at work with overtime so posting before I get off is going to be random.

so loot. If we still have a small masterwork studded leather armor from the goblins Cleo can use it. Storywise since she doesn't want to wear goblin armor she can use it to modify her own armor to masterwork. She'll happily carry any healing potions.
Other than just a share of what we end up selling. I'd say be fair about distribution, let people claim what they want and not worry about shares on anything other than what we sell. A strong group is more important than complete distribution.
Just my two cents.
Male Dwarf Korak
In theory I agree but in practice what if someone isn't getting what they need to keep up with everybody else. Ans my 2 cents I'd rather handle the loot in character. Loot is one of the most ooc moments as everybody argues about what their character needs. I'd like to go against that and keep it ic as another chance to rp
Help support my Ko-fi addiction l Loot List
As DM, it doesn't really matter to me what tactic you use as long as it works. As for IC, just try to play reasonably fairly so Cleo isn't lvl 8 without a penny to her name, and Maria is lvl 8 with an adamantine vorpal dagger.

Which I now totally want to happen.
EDIT: Minus Cleo being penniless.
