Since I had you guys level up you are at the new level as of now. You are correct though that most of the time I have you rest/sleep before you get the new level. Call it Christmas spirit.
There is no real time table so no need to rush, but just know that I am not a fan of 1 encounter a day so you can nuke everything and not worry about following encounters. Rn not that in kingmaker for exploration. Caster used all high level spells in the first 2 rounds, combat over, sleep and repeat. I do want you to be able to take your time with the sandbox style right now and if you want to go to other areas not listed I am good with that as well. For example if you had a specific friend or family you wanted to visit or check on please say so.
I'm good with going on... but if the majority want to rest first, that's okay too... I'm easy.
Oriana is good with moving. At some point, she would like to swing by her home to see if her family is there. But they could just as easily be at the garrison etc.
Like Mael, if Garith and the majority say to rest first, she will rest and formulate some kind of plan in the meanwhile.
I see a couple of you have posted but with the holidays I will give people till tomorrow night to indicate their preference before moving on in both campaigns. Night everyone and I will update both tomorrow to get things moving again hopefully.

Plus the site is acting up for me so that could be an issue as well.
Thanks for putting up with my delays people - got both my girls home on vacations from school so... That's that :D
Just posted -> Move OUT! ;)
Zeriax, I understand. My son's home on summer holidays at the moment. :)
Tomorrow is NYE in Oz. I will be out of town until late afternoon on my 1st January. I will try to post something before I leave but then there will be no more postings from me until I return home.
Happy New Year to everyone. May 2014 be a positive year. :)
Enjoy your New Year's Eve Oriana. Start off 2014 with your right foot! ;)
Thanks, Zeriax. :)
Happy New Years, Ori... have a fun night!!!
Ours does not happen until Weds here - still 2 days off, but my husband and I have no plans at all for the new years eve, except to stay home and watch movies... Sad but all our friends are doing the same this year instead of having or going to parties...
I think we're all just getting old and tired of the hoopla and the clean up afterwards, lol...
Anyway, have fun and be safe!
Thanks, Maelchar!
Enjoy your movie night (when it comes around). :)
You don't have to be old to enjoy sitting around and enjoy a relaxing night. Tat sounds like a grand idea to me right now. Enjoy the holiday everyone whenever it finally gets to you that is.
Thank you, DM Variel.
Thanks, Garith.
Wanted to drop a line to wish you all a Happy New Year!! Today and tomorrow posting will not come easy, and next weekend the family is going on a snow trip, but I'm still around. Posting will be sparse though, until next Sunday.
Enjoy the holiday everyone!
Enjoy Zeriax. I won't kill you till you get back.

Diagonals
When measuring distance, the first diagonal counts as 1 square, the second counts as 2 squares, the third counts as 1, the fourth as 2, and so on.
You can't move diagonally past a corner (even by taking a 5-foot step). You can move diagonally past a creature, even an opponent.
You can also move diagonally past other impassable obstacles, such as pits.
here's the Link to d20pfsrd.com.
Thanks for the link Garith.
Ryu a couple of things. First of all I labeled the combat as surprise round as the tieflings did not notice you or Zeriax. They were aware that there was a group outside the walls of the library so thought this was the best course of action.
As it was run with a surprise round you can not take readied actions out of combat. It does not work that way. Readied actions are a phase of combat interrupting the normal flow of initiative. As you are not in initiative you can not ready an action.
Second the cavalier only used a standard action to demoralize everyone not a full round action like you are suggesting. I have the stats for Chaleb already with the premade tactics.
Third, I am sorry you have not experienced the hard corner rule in the past but it is in the rulebook and linked as Garith did above.
Fourth I would still like you to please show me your attack modifiers to get to +11.
Fifth please post in the discussion thread if you have a question instead of the campaign thread. Small questions as part of your action are fine but not whole posts.
Thanks.
BAB - 3; Current Dexterity Modifier - 6; -1 for Power attack; +2 for flanking, +1 for being adjacent to two enemies.
I didn't factor in the variable for being shaken because it didn't seem very intimidating. Also, I wasn't sure if that variable was in play until I knew the ruling on the use of Dazzling Display which you said it was. If you had other variables in play, it was confused because they weren't mentioned.
Whether or not you are ruling that preparing to attack someone as a readied action can't work unless you are already in combat is one thing. However, I did have the sword out, and was prepared to attack.
If I knew about the rule about corners, I would not have bothered to take that move.
That said, I would have been where I was and just attacked the enemy next to me as it would have been impossible to move and attack and just attacked from K:4 on the enemy at K:5.
Since are you ruling that the Dazzling Display happened without being able to be interrupted, and that we all got penalized by it, then my new modifier to attack the guy next to me is only +6.
It's probably likely that the critical didn't confirm, then.
Oh well.
So I'm stuck at K:4 when I made the attack with the natural 20 for a total of 26 to hit.
Gabe I am not retconning the last round. I know you don't want to hear this but we are moving forward and leaving things where they are currently. This is not trying to hamstring you. It more about expediting the combat and moving on. Like I said originally you can keep you attack for this round on J:6 if you want.
Sorry folks. I seem to be having troubles with keeping up for various reasons. I'm kind of lost right now as it is. It seemed at first like Pakak was in a completely different area from the others so I wasn't sure what he could do?
Hello. I have another question.
As it stands somehow Ryu is considered "Down" but I went back and read the posts and I think there was some sort of error.
GM, as you know, when Ryu raged his Dexterity jumped to 22; that puts his AC from 17 to 19. And as stated earlier, he gains a +1 to AC when adjacent to two or more enemies.
I double checked, but it looks like the Sneak Attack in Round 1 would have hit an AC of 18, but like I said - with the Rage and Barbarian Special Ability "Crowd Control" it would have needed to have hit a 20.
I think that means I should have taken only a total of 23 damage and I'd still be up. But I may have missed something, though. If I did, I'm sorry about that.
Also, I'm sorry I didn't post something sooner, but didn't look until just recently.
I can be down if you me to, but I'm just confused how it happened is all.

In This Thread here, it suggests no AoO as LoH is a Su ability. It is a standard action as it's targeting Ryu, but there is no spell cast, which is what provokes with a clw spell
That look right?
Also, Ryu, sorry for forgetting to bastion in my first offensive action... next big fight I'll try to remember to. Guys...
I am in agreement with you Garith. LoH does not provoke an AOO. Happy healing.
sorry, long day, gonna post tomorrow
yup, same experience here
The messageboards died completely - then came back up, then down again, taking all the posts that had been written in the meantime, down with them :/
Paizo Facebook page referred a Power outage.
I was unable to get in as well
I went onto Facebook as well and started to follow the Paizo site.
Not only was the site down for a bit, but I observed that it was also “on and off” for a while, allowing some posts to go up; some posts to go up but get “eaten” and other posts couldn’t get up.
If it happens again, I'd recommend just checking the Facebook page, just to be sure, because chances are that even if their server is down in some places, they can at least give us details on a Facebook page so long as they have a cell phone handy.
Sorry everyone got called into work so won't have any updats tonight. Again sorry and will get one tomorrow.
It's Australia Day tomorrow and I will be hosting a party all day and won't be able to post. Apologies.
Up with the girls so no real update but Faxon will drop and the last cultist will suicide by channeling negative and hitting himself as well for damage.
seriously??? omg, I'm glad I healed... 5 points of dmg would have taken me to 0, lol... but what a waste of a potion since the combat is over now.. sigh
Wow sorry guys I fell asleep putting my oldest to bed and woke up in the morning. Will get an update for both during work today. Sorry again about that.
no problem... life happens... wasn't worried about it.

Been there... Soooooo many times :D
map link worked for me at: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B5YyhR_al2pEbTEyb0t0RkJ2Nkk/edit
Grrr,car broke down yesterday and furnace went out today. Will get a post tomorrow. Still trying to get everything straightened out here.
Bad week for updates, sorry all.
ouch... sorry for your troubles... I hate when things pile up like that... hope things get better for you soon.
They will be fine as I have learned how to fix the furnace myself it just takes time to do it completely. Saves a large bill but takes the night. The car will be back tomorrow so things will be normal for the weekend but just stressful right now.
Alright so I the game has progressed to the point that I think we can recruit for a player to replace Oriana. Any thoughts before I place a recruitment post on what you are looking for?

Looking at the party makeup, we got:
Garith: Heavy tank with respectable damage.
Mael: Heavy/reach damage Full divine caster
Pakak: Wizard (full arcane)
Ryu: Melee striker/skirmisher
Zeriax: Artillery/trapfinder (non-squishie)
So we could probably take almost ANY character, cause we aren't really missing anything at this point, are we?
Garith has detailed it pretty clearly I guess - the group seems well rounded as it is, so I don't think I have any 'original' suggestion to throw out there.
Maelchar is full divine but he is focused on melee - with Oriana leaving I do think we could benefit from a dedicated divine caster in the long run, as we seem to be lacking somewhat in the buffs department, as well as a strong way to deal with ailments like poison, stat damage, etc., in a consistent way. Or at least, someone that would work as a complement to Maelchar's divine powers.
Of course with so many of us in the martial department, a Bard would do wonders :D
Would there be any interest in inviting someone from other games we are in? According to some criteria? Though sometimes fresh blood is also welcome :D
