Just bot me for the next couple of days. I am UNBELIEVABLY pissed off and do not have the mindset to play right now.
Are you okay sir?
I'm fine, my brother's dog destroyed my room, didn't get anything particularly important but I'm not in a good mood.
That sucks. I am glad you are okay though.
Take all the time you need
And now I've destroyed a ink trying to put a new faucet on. Le sigh
Well, it will be awhile before I beat that.
GOOD hit!
I'm currently thinking up a way that I can ensure that the terrain is very important to pay attention to, without having the tediousness of needing to roll every single jump, manage those who believe in the illusion (for every single jump), and check the floor boards all the time. If you have any suggestions, I'm open to hearing them. I'm currently considering a 'one check per floor' option.
One check per floor sounds good
I think that's what's going to happen. Everyone will make a single acrobatics check per floor. I think the DC will be 4+ the number of dangerous 5ft sections on that floor. Andreste will also be making an Engineering check to discover literal pitfalls.
Order should still be important.
The frontrunner should be someone nimble, in case Andreste doesn't discover all the risky sections on the floor. If they're small, there's a chance they'll walk over it without falling, as Aggah has done so many times I lost count. So you may want to consider their size as well as their reflexes.
For the ones suffering from the illusion, staying close behind and just following along with the others should be okay. Might be tripy trying to trust someone who's telling you to just jump into the void. In such situations I might add a Will save to their acrobatics (if applicable). This would only occur in situations where they would be making an action that they believe would do them obvious harm (like jumping through a gap in the staircase because someone says that the staircase is actually there). Penalty might just be falling behind, like by half a floor. This might play out in combat, but is more important as a waste of time.
Combat will have to revert back to the original rules, because someone may very well run over an unknown section that could give way during their turn.
Any final thoughts before we resume?
Andreste has feather fall prepared, so if she follows the goblin looking out for things he misses and she misses something, she can keep her fall from bring fatal--once anyway. Also, she has multiple ways to travel through air or stone to catch back up in a hurry.
Sounds good.
Wabbit is small, agile (acro+19) and has a ring of featherfall. He should take the front position from Aggah (even though she likely enjoying herself)
If she's got to make will saves, it might be bad.
Let's go
Wabbit
Andreste
Aggah
Furnok
Cleo
Catching up:
Bacon
Janis
Sorry sorry, a host of minor problems like blown tires and not jacks ave hit me just bot me again and I'll catch up in a couple of days.
No worries man. I know you're having a rough time. I'm just adding your name in case things get easier for you.
Hey Wabbit, go ahead and take another turn. I answered your question and then promptly skipped you
For Furnok and Cleo
I'm noticing that the numbers for your animal companions aren't adding up, for different reasons.
Furnok, I noticed that Bacon's damage is way too low for his strength, and it looks like his BAB is too high. I'd recommend you go over his build to see where the errors are. As a suggestion: I recommend changing his improved initiative feat. His initiative is meaningless, since I always attach animal companions on their master's turn.
Cleo, I think you're well aware that Aggah's numbers are a nightmare, due to attempting to homebrew a goblin animal companion on an auto-complete d&d software. If you can rebuild her by hand, I'd really appreciate it. If not, I can do her stats by hand and send them to you.
I haven't gone through anyone's stats with a fine-tooth comb. It's not my style. However, I'd hate to see you guys shoot yourselves in the foot by mixing up numbers.
I can try.
I can try.
Thanks. Let me know if you need any help, or have changed your mind. I have plenty of time on my hands, and I enjoy building pathfinder characters by hand.
Think it is right now. Don't know how to give just plain hit die, so made her an expert since the bab matched, and used adjustments to fiddle with skill points and saves.
Also put her full stat line in the header with Cleo's
That looks about right. The only thing I think you're missing is this:
4TH-LEVEL ADVANCEMENT
Gain proficiency in medium armor, martial weapons, and shields.

Seems his damage should be 1d8+5 due to str. As for Bab..Hmmm..
7th level should have base of +4. A strength of 20 Should in fact give him +5 for +9. I did have Magic Fang cast on him for +1 to hit/damage
Ah, it is in the hero lab portfolio, just didn't export, oddly.
@Fox ...sorry bout the inaccurate dagger damage. I did not have the thrown dagger attack routine saved to my character sheet and was posting that on the fly, not accounting for the small-sized weapon damage and started with the base damage of a medium-sized weapon.
When raging vs a target that has previously attacked Wabbit his base weapon damage goes up one size category
small dagger 1d3
small dagger with dutiful strike 1d4
I've added that attack pattern to my character sheet to avoid making that mistake again.
Hey no worries, Wabbit. Thanks for explaining this to me. I had no idea
Okay, having trouble braining, what's going on? I read and it just isn't making any impression in my head.
We killed Nualia, who Maria attacked wayyyyy back in the first book. You remember that hellscape battle where there was a trap in the middle of a super clausterphobic hallway, with one team on either side? That one.
You climbed up a level using your grappling hook. A creature a floor above you keeps trying to shoot you with a crossbow, and you keep dodging.
Alright.Thanks.
I thought I was climbing a grappling hook, not the stairs.
You had already climbed up the hook, but there's still a floor to go.
And it's all stairs, even though it looks like a flat boardwalk.
Stairs, endless stairs...
SCP-087
F@@~ bot me again. I felt the need to look up my aunt I haven't seen in a couple of years. I was hoping for a phone number and found an obituary. It didn't have enough info me to be sure it's her but she was pretty old.
It was.
Condolences
Yes, condolences, friend. Take your time as needed.
Sorry sir, truly.
I'm sorry to hear that. It sounds like you're having a really rough time. Take all the time you need. And don't worry, I haven't been waiting on you. I've been waiting on me.
Except for this it's mostly just been a frustrating busy time. I'm guessing you're having an episode, I hope you start feeling better too.
It is a mark of a good person who can see the suffering of others while they themselves also suffer.
Thank you, and you're right. I've almost fully recovered now. I hope things start going easier for you. Let me know whenever you're ready and I'll catch you up. We're very close to being done with stairs lol.
I wouldn't say I'm suffering so much as preoccupied and feeling a little guilty.
Happy independence day to my fellow americans... or just anybody who enjoys a good excuse to cookout.
Awww Mama Cleo
So should Cleo wait to ask more questions to see if any of the others charge in?
