We be Goblin(?) Kings, Kingmaker

Game Master Freddy Honeycutt

What happens when the heroes chartered to explore the Stolen lands make treaties with locals and end up dead with the charter passing into the hands of goblins???

We follow their trail, we catch up to other bandits.

Gufi is sure the long shanks are trying to circle back around in a big circle and if you guys are quick you can get another shot at them!!!


M Goblin Unchained Rogue 1/Admixture Evoker 1 | HP: 18/18| AC: 18 (16 T, 13 FF) | CMB: -2, CMD: 13 | F: +1, R: +7, W: +0 | Init: +5 | Perc: +3

Let's git 'em! We can leave this stuff until after they're dead.


Ratfolk Human Warpriest 1 - Summoner 1

Colvin nods to Gufi, "OK, let's do it. I still have most of my spell powers available but I will not be able to summon the spirit of my in as I did before".

Colvin mounts his Eidolon, "Lead the way my Goblin friend!".


M somewhat akin to a kender Y / MA

Gufi leads you out to the plains near the ravine where you buried your friends. Three human riders with no light are on foot leading their horses towards the South....


Retired, Kobold

Stealth-Kel: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (5) + 12 = 17
Stealth-Soggy: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (12) + 10 = 22

The kobold hunkers down in the tall grasses, taking careful aim with his musket as the bandits approach. He urges his beast to do the same, though the Krenshar is anxious, and frequently licks the spot where it had been wounded.


M somewhat akin to a kender Y / MA

The humans are basically blind beyond the range of their light source....

Surprise attack?


Ratfolk Human Warpriest 1 - Summoner 1

Before the Surprise Attack

Colvin will cast Rejuvinate Eidolon before the attack commences. RE [dicd]1d8+1[/dice]

Surprise Attack

Colvin grins at Gufi in the dark whispering, [smaller]"A good plan".[/smaller

He then casts Daze at one of the Bandits.

Will save DC 13.

Stealth Gufi: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (8) + 16 = 24
Stealth Snips: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14

Attacking from the darkness, Gufi takes a shot at another bandit, hoping to drop him before he can act.

Ranged touch: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 6 + 2 = 19
Ray of Frost: 1d3 + 2 + 1d6 ⇒ (1) + 2 + (5) = 8


Mite Cleric of The One Below 2; 25/25 hp

The mite waits with the others. Scratch sits on her shoulder like some sort of pirate's parrot, but My Horse (her riding rat) is back away from the ravine because it seems to be incapable of remaining quiet.

With 120' darkvision, do I have longer range than the rest of you? If so, I will whisper the bandits' formation, etc. so we can position ourselves best before they reach us.

You said they have no light. So they are effectively blind?
Stealth: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (13) + 16 = 29

Surprise round
She casts bane on the bandits.

First round
She casts guidance on the sharp-shooting kobold.

Retired, Kobold

Surprise Round
Soggy sneaks, inching slightly closer to the approaching bandits. As they draw near, he leaps out with a screech, exposing his skull to a bandit in the rear of the bunch.
Skullface: DC 12 Will or Frightened For:: 1d4 ⇒ 3 rounds.

Gufi fires again at the human Kelvaalpaaz injured.

ranged touch: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20

cold: 1d3 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

He then draws his little rapier and moves closer.


M somewhat akin to a kender Y / MA

The three bandits quickly become just two, even though everything is in chaos and several attacks failed to hit the bandits, the two bandits mount an offensive.....

They each fire an arrow
@Soggy

1d20 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 71d20 ⇒ 151d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 41d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

Bite Attack - 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19

Bite Damage 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7


M somewhat akin to a kender Y / MA

That bandit goes down, leaving one bandit charging the gunslinger.....


Mite Cleric of The One Below 2; 25/25 hp

The little mite, who was hiding near the kobold after casting her guidance spell on him, activates her copycat ability and rushes between the man and the kobold, where it appears that two of her are threatening him with her club.

She has DR 2/cold iron and he has a 50% chance to miss her. She's angry enough to take those odds.

"This is for our friends! You will feed the One Below tonight! My friend will use his firestick to kill you and I will give you to the worms!"


She's an angry smurf! Somebody needs a hug.....


M somewhat akin to a kender Y / MA

Gufi is up!

Gufi rushes toward the remaining bandit and flanks with Quuroog (one or the other!).

flanking: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 6 + 2 = 11

rapier: 1d4 - 1 + 1d6 ⇒ (4) - 1 + (2) = 5

M somewhat akin to a kender Y / MA

You take down the last bandit and this time find another potion of Cure moderate wounds.

Along with standard bandit gear.

As it ends you realize that you know have three additional horses, a camp that formerly belonged to the bandits and a wagon full of trade goods.

Perception DC 15

Spoiler:
In a small hidden pocket you find a woman's ring on one of the bandits....otherwise you find it while eating.....


M Goblin Unchained Rogue 1/Admixture Evoker 1 | HP: 18/18| AC: 18 (16 T, 13 FF) | CMB: -2, CMD: 13 | F: +1, R: +7, W: +0 | Init: +5 | Perc: +3

Ratfolk Human Warpriest 1 - Summoner 1

Perception 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 9 = 16

Colvin finds the ring in a bandit pocket, "I wonder who this ring belonged to?" He shows it to the group seemingly enchanted by its shininess.

"I think we have achieved significant victory and avenged our fallen long legs!"


M somewhat akin to a kender Y / MA

The remainder of the evening is uneventful and it is up to the group to push on somewhere else or to camp...

Soggy licks his/her/it's wounds and growls menacingly if anyone gets to close, eventually it eats the frozen bandit maybe the chill is soothing......


M Goblin Unchained Rogue 1/Admixture Evoker 1 | HP: 18/18| AC: 18 (16 T, 13 FF) | CMB: -2, CMD: 13 | F: +1, R: +7, W: +0 | Init: +5 | Perc: +3

Who can we sell the horses to? They worth sumpin', right?

Gufi sips the potion to cure 9 pts.


Mite Cleric of The One Below 2; 25/25 hp

"Bandits all gone, maybe reward from Oleg for stolen stuff? Oleg buy horses, I bet." She looks at the ring longingly, but says nothing to claim it. "Shiny..."


M somewhat akin to a kender Y / MA

Almost without a plan the group takes the horses of these last few bandits and the treasure and begins to head to Oleg's to see whether or not the Baron will give you more than the horses are worth as food....

Any objections to Oleg's?....speak now, or you know


Mite Cleric of The One Below 2; 25/25 hp

I kind of suggested it, so no objections here.


Ratfolk Human Warpriest 1 - Summoner 1

Colvin shrugs. "Horse meat is good but ok we can sell 'em! What about other loot?"

As the group begins to make the journey Colvin's tail starts to twitch and he gets nervous his nose twitching as well, "We should be on guard as we approach what if these bandits have friends at Oleg's?!"


M somewhat akin to a kender Y / MA

You had heard about

Oleg's Baronry

From the chiefs of the four nations tribe, but you had expected it to be smaller as the residents you know of were only the lord and lady, Oleg and Svetlana......

Near the gates are four humans on horseback who appear to have just arrived with a cart and donkey as well....


M Goblin Unchained Rogue 1/Admixture Evoker 1 | HP: 18/18| AC: 18 (16 T, 13 FF) | CMB: -2, CMD: 13 | F: +1, R: +7, W: +0 | Init: +5 | Perc: +3

Maybe they want some horses? Ask hoomins if they want to buy tasty horses!


Mite Cleric of The One Below 2; 25/25 hp

"Who ask? You think longshanks talk to one of us better than other? Might be bad memory with some tribe, Quuroog fears."


M Goblin Unchained Rogue 1/Admixture Evoker 1 | HP: 18/18| AC: 18 (16 T, 13 FF) | CMB: -2, CMD: 13 | F: +1, R: +7, W: +0 | Init: +5 | Perc: +3

Not me. Longshanks not like gobbies much. Maybe like you better.

My 7 charisma isn't too useful...


Mite Cleric of The One Below 2; 25/25 hp

Yeah, just rping it out.

Quuroog squeaks, "Me?" She looks at the walls just down the road. "Where you be?"


The men are greeted at the gate by Oleg.....you can hear them....

"We are the men at arms you requested to keep your fort..."

Oleg "Trading post"

The leader of the men continues.....
"Trading post safe, we assume the charter bearing heroes arrived and have started their work."

Oleg "Yes indeed and even made friends with the goblins, kobolds, mites and ratfolk...so don't get to enthusiastic in guard duty."

Oleg opens the gate......


Ratfolk Human Warpriest 1 - Summoner 1

"Don't worry friends, Mastre Splinter teach me quite well to speak with humans! I can do all talking you all do watching, we need to be on guard until we know we can trust these longlegs!" Colvin appears excited and nervous at the same time.

Colvin rides up to the gate on his Eidolon, "Greetings, we four", Colvin will now and gesture back to his companions in the distance, "must meet with Oleg on some matters of great importance. You be Oleg yes yes?" Colvin asks. His Eidolon senses Colvin's nervousness and his tail too begins to twitch.


M Goblin Unchained Rogue 1/Admixture Evoker 1 | HP: 18/18| AC: 18 (16 T, 13 FF) | CMB: -2, CMD: 13 | F: +1, R: +7, W: +0 | Init: +5 | Perc: +3

Hey, WE got the charters! You tell 'em Colvin. Sell 'em horses, too.

Gufi stands behind him.


"Of course" says Oleg looking over your heads...

"You best get the heroes, we have been over run by a brigade of bandits, they stole the horses, most of my inventory and to top it all off my wife's wedding ring!"


Ratfolk Human Warpriest 1 - Summoner 1

Colvin sighs, "I fear that is what we are here for..."

Colvin waves his allies, the new heroes forward.

"Your human heroes and your friends have been slain by the brigands! We, I think, got most of 'em but there still could be some out there. We found many many trade goods, horses, and a ring and most important, Charters".


M Goblin Unchained Rogue 1/Admixture Evoker 1 | HP: 18/18| AC: 18 (16 T, 13 FF) | CMB: -2, CMD: 13 | F: +1, R: +7, W: +0 | Init: +5 | Perc: +3

We killed 'em good!

Gufi smiles, revealing hideous teeth.


Mite Cleric of The One Below 2; 25/25 hp

Quuroog comes forward, but not quite as close as Gufi. A big tear rolls down her cheek, and she adds, "They killed Lini and her big kitty. She was going to teach me new tricks!"

Then she scowls with a surprising ferocity for her size. "Lini's friends wouldn't let those bullies go free, so we didn't, either. They paid." She nods once firmly, but another tear slowly makes its way down the other cheek.

"I'm Quuroog." I've decided the pronunciation is kuh-ROOG. Soft emphasis on the second syllable. Funny how details come together for a character, isn't it?


Oleg: "Dead you say, all of them? But you killed the bandits? What to do, what to do? It would take months to get another group in from Restov, and no one will want to hearing such hearty heroes met such a horrible end."

The men at arms "We can secure and hold the fort, but we can not patrol for danger even with additional horses."

Oleg: "Wait! The charters clearly fall to the four nations under the treaty. Will you accept the mission of the charter to explore the lands?"

You should look at all the racial traits. Also having the tribes working together all these years we might have some room for learning other racial traits (within reason) via the "adopted trait".

Just find traits you like and we will figure it out. I love traits and have even used the additional traits feat at first level for character creation....

Still expecting to launch in January.


Ratfolk Human Warpriest 1 - Summoner 1

Can I build this Eidolon as the embodiment of Ratfolk and thereby grant it the Swarmfighting ability as a 1 point Evolution? This would be a great build for the trajectory of this character to be sure.

I would like the Eidolon to be a front liner but one that I can stand with so that we may assist each other from time to time.

EDIT: Getting a bit tired over here - can I use Craft Alchemy to make Poison?

I answered my own question on poison!

Question: Am I correct in thinking that anything that enhances a mite's Handle Animal skill is going to benefit them in their working with vermin?

I edited my post and added a question not realizing that you had already read and answered the original question, so here it is again.


KenderKin wrote:

How about a vermin-themed Animal Friend trait? I'm still holding out hope that my combination of abilities allows me to use Handle Animal against vermin. If it doesn't apply against Animals as a result, I'm OK with that.


M somewhat akin to a kender Y / MA

The feat vermin heart might be worth considering. I would allow a mite to take tgat feat to augment his/her vermin empathy. Also the trait unnatural prescence as well for nonmites....


Interesting; that feat is apparently missing from Hero Lab.

Racial ability: Vermin Empathy (Ex)

This ability functions as a druid's wild empathy, save that a mite can only use this ability on vermin. A mite gains a +4 racial bonus on this check. Vermin are normally mindless, but this empathic communication imparts on them a modicum of implanted intelligence, allowing mites to train Medium vermin and use them as mounts. Vermin empathy treats swarms as if they were one creature possessing a single mind—a mite can thus use this ability to influence and direct the actions of swarms with relative ease.

Feat: Vermin heart

You may target vermin with spells and special abilities that only affect animals (although they are still affected by spells targeting vermin as well). You may use wild empathy to influence vermin as easily as you influence animals.

Conclusion
I don't think I gain anything from this feat. I already have the ability to train vermin according to the description for the racial ability and that's what I was really looking for. I have a better wild empathy ability with them than the feat provides. Thanks for the suggestion.


I am wanting the Handle Animal skill as a class skill; I have taken Savannah Child as a trait to take care of that.

Now I figure out how to get a greensting scorpion in Hero Lab.


King of Goblins *MAP*

That's very cool.

My understanding is that it's 25 pt buy, but you can't drop your low stats below 10. We'll all have a strength of 8, minimum.

Here's my goblin trickster's stats: S 8, D 20, C 13, I 17, W 7, Ch 8.

Unchained rogue 1/Evoker 1. Standard treasure, I presume?

Oh, wait. I got it all wrong on the stats. 8, 20, 12, 18, 7, 8.


Mite Cleric of The One Below 2; 25/25 hp

Initial pass at the character sheet for the mite cleric. "The One Below" was a vision she had in a dream of a snake or worm or something like it that moves through the soil below her feet. She's never seen it, but she hears it in the soil at night. She began worshiping it and her strong faith has led to her clerical powers.

She has a greensting scorpion familiar and a riding rat (which I intend to reskin as a riding beetle, but that wasn't an option in HL and I've killed too much of a day on this character build, especially considering it's not all that special.)

Anyway, here she is so far, warts and all.


King of Goblins *MAP*

I really like her, so far.

Do we get 2nd level treasure? 1000 gp? Or max for 1st level? Sorry if I missed the exact amount.

Still working on my goblin, tentatively named "Gufi." Unchained rogue is a lot cooler than the original. He'll have 3 levels of it, if he gets that far.

So, we've got a Mite cleric 2, a Ratfolk warpriest/summoner, a Goblin rogue/wizard and a Kobold (?), right?


M Goblin Unchained Rogue 1/Admixture Evoker 1 | HP: 18/18| AC: 18 (16 T, 13 FF) | CMB: -2, CMD: 13 | F: +1, R: +7, W: +0 | Init: +5 | Perc: +3

I've got Gufi started. Still have to determine money and gear, but here's the basics.


M somewhat akin to a kender Y / MA

Looks like we have our goblin, kobold, mite, and ratfolk!

Here is a question to consider....
Do you guys want to get a gnome or Halfling PC, or do you want to go on with the assumption all the initial group perished????

Please private message me with your choice. if you have no preference don't send anything.


Male Kobold Ranger 1

I would just as soon assume the initial group perished. ...though it would be funny to have the only "normal" race in among a bunch of monster folk trying to keep things sane.


M somewhat akin to a kender Y / MA

Wealth by level, you guys are level 2.
Initial crafting can be no more than a third of wealth...

Yeah we have Baron Oleg to help with that, but only when you guys run amuck and find yourselves near Olegs...may be some others later on...

still waiting on player votes...


Fatal flaw in your method. You said not to vote if we had no preference, then did not set a deadline. You could be waiting for people that voted by not responding. Like me.


M somewhat akin to a kender Y / MA

Nah. just a flesh wound.

One message I got did wonder if this 5th PC was going to be a PC or an NPC.... I was talking about a PC not an NPC.

The other option is pick one of the iconics as a survivor and have him/her act as errand person between the four nations and Olegs...


King of Goblins *MAP*

I'm OK with whatever you decide.


+1


King of Goblins *MAP*

Gufi's finished. He's got 6 more 1st level spells than he started with. I paid 25 gold apiece for him to learn them, if that's OK.


M somewhat akin to a kender Y / MA

You can save some starting wealth to order from Oleg's...if you think it might not be something you could have purchased or found in the four nations.....

I am OK assuming you have normal starting gear...I would also say some minor poisons, alchemical items, etc. are logically there as well.

I intend to stat the four kingdoms as a single unit....


M somewhat akin to a kender Y / MA

I have been looking over the characters.

They all look really great!!!!

Has everyone decided how they are going to play the characters???
Ie personality and speaking, etc...


Ratfolk Human Warpriest 1 - Summoner 1

I am thinking Colvin is an advisor/student of Splinter.

A give and take. He is loyal to his people but through Splinters vision can see how making the pact work will be to the benefit of his kin.

He will be confident but not overly so. Willing to stand and fight for what he believes in but will not sacrifice himself for glory.


King of Goblins *MAP*

Not sure about Gufi. I want him to talk a little goofy, but he's got an 18 int, so he's not very goofy. Goblins seem to all talk like Gollum.

Maybe he should talk more like someone else. Some weird verbal mannerism...


Mite Cleric of The One Below 2; 25/25 hp

Quuroog is fearful. She worships out of fear and receives abilities from that worship, so she fears that she will use it wrong. She's not certain that Scratch, her greensting scorpion familiar, is there to help her or to spy on her. She's pretty sure it was sent by the entity she worships.

She may spend an inordinate amount of time talking to the scorpion to make sure it's happy with what she's doing.

She's a work in progress, but that's the off-the-cuff reaction I have to that question right now.


Male Kobold Ranger 1

Charyx is the most civilized of the bunch (so he believes). He is a leader, so naturally it comes with awesome perks and responsibility... and he has to be the leader because he is the only one who can handle that kind of responsibility.

Basically, an arrogant Professor X. Frail and weak physically, but a mental powerhouse and believes he is in charge because who else is as amazing as he is?

It would ne pretty funny if he spoke proper English when Goblins were NOT around and degenerated his speech pattern when Goblins were around so as not to alienate himself from his own people. :-)

I am laughing already....the mite cleric worships the "monster under the bed"....

The kobold nerd doesn't believe in the monster under the bed....

The goblin burned his bed just in case....

The ratfolk wonders what's a bed.....


King of Goblins *MAP*

I know nothing about Kingmaker. Should be fun!

Nice summation!


M somewhat akin to a kender Y / MA

I am trying to divide the labor of the four nations.

What items do you want your tribe to be experts at???

This can be as broad as "masterwork armor and weapons", or as narrow as "MW alchemical pickaxes".....

I am hoping to get most of the major types of goods...

I see potions being more numerous than scrolls....

Any ideas??


Shadow's Status

Ratfolk gain pluses to Alchemy so i would say potions and other alchemical items from the ratfolk.


King of Goblins *MAP*

I don't know what Goblins would produce.

Maybe instead of producing they can provide raw materials to create goods? Would make them integral to trade.


How about if ratfolk are relative newcomers and bring general manufacturing prowess, specifically things chymical, from their more recent exposure to other races and civilation?

I believe I saw that the Sootscales were going to have a role as primary source of silver. Of course, as a race, they often make a claim for magic in their blood. Those might translate to a knack for silver craftsmanship and general creation of magic items for the nations.

Goblins might have an iron mine and could have developed some skill fashioning basic item products. I don't picture them getting really sophisticated with their creations, but that's up to you and might only happen when an exceptional individual comes along.

Mites don't like iron because of its similarity to the cold iron they abhor, so their tools are generally made of wood. They have been known to produce some wondrous items or "potions" of rootstock, but only on those rare occasions that one of them develops the magical ability, generally the result of an ancestor with particularly strong fey blood. That and they are the primary contacts for the four nations and the fey in the region - not because the non-nation fey like them better, but they feel like they know what to expect from the mites where the non-fey are different. And better victims than allies.

That's off-the-cuff, initial reaction to the question. More might come later and you are more than welcome to ignore every word.

Alchemist's fire

Troll styptic
Skunk oil

Raw materials

I see the ratfolk and kobolds being a bit more organized than the mites and goblins.....
To the point of having frequent patrols, with the others going out when they feel like it.
But I also see the mites and goblins being the best scavengers..gatherer's

Of course PCs are not defined by any stereotypes!!!


King of Goblins *MAP*

That makes sense. They could find odds and ends useful for alchemy or spell components, among the stuff they scavenge and reuse.


M somewhat akin to a kender Y / MA

Also notice the second level cleric/wizard, witch, bard, druid spell masterwork transformation.

If you don't think any of our PC races can make MW items.

Costs the same as just buying MW items!


King of Goblins *MAP*

You either produce them, or buy them.


M somewhat akin to a kender Y / MA

I am fine either way. Some things you will have to order through Oleg's.


King of Goblins *MAP*

I'm good. This is a fine character, straight out of the box. Thanks.


King of Goblins *MAP*

The unchained rogue is a big improvement, even with only 3 levels. I'd add it to the AT guide, but I can't access it anymore.


Ratfolk Human Warpriest 1 - Summoner 1

I will be away from January 1 to January 6. Will check in as I am able but likely I will be unable to post anything significant until my return.

Sounds good, I am sure we are all looking forward to it! I have ever read anything about or played in Kingmaker so it should be a great experience.

Until then, shorties-es!


M somewhat akin to a kender Y / MA

So still thinking about the start point, ie the first post in the gameplay thread. And the options you guys will have at that point.

Even with the minor rewrite literally tons of options....

No peeking.

Spoiler:
Coming across the field of battle the bandits have killed and stripped the iconics of their gear....

Following the bandit trail.....
Trail splits with some going north and others heading to the woods....

If woods, then Thorn River Camp...
If north defending Oleg's


M somewhat akin to a kender Y / MA

Gameplay thread is up....
Peeking is OK, but please wait to start posting.
If you must post, delete it within a brief period...

Are there other questions??
