We Who Are About To Die... (Inactive)

Game Master Doomed Hero

Doomed, the last spoiler is broken and says Lorth, not Lorn
I don't know why that mustache almost copied Lorn's name but it's starting to get annoying, Lorn shall offer to repair his facial hair and maybe do something "funny"...... >)

also: must... resist... jumping... into... portal...

Last spoiler? The one in the list right above your post?

No, the one with your name is correct for you. You're in the fire. Lorth is almost in the fire.

No inside Karlov's spoiler you tried to make another spoiler, the Perception one

Attack whip:
Greatsword: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (2) + 12 = 14, damage 2d6 + 14 ⇒ (4, 5) + 14 = 23

D'oh! You're right. Spoiler fail and name fail.

I'm glad you're smart enough to figure out what I was trying to do.

It was more like persistence. I kept on clicking on "spoilers below" before I finally saw that!

no it was intelligence on my side

dumbass monk :p

It's kinda the monk approach. "I do not understand, therefore, I must hit this thing until I reach enlightenment."

Exactly!

hehe

Can I get out of the pit by climbing up the boat?

Heads up - I'm going out of town for a few days and internet connection availability is questionable. Feel free to run Joboo if you're having to wait. For now he'll run/ regroup with the others. I should be back by Saturday night.

Can I get out of the pit by climbing up the boat?

Absolutely. Give me a Climb check DC 5. The boat counts as difficult terrain.

Work is kicking my butt real bad. If everyone's acted by tomorrow night I think I can manage a full update.

Sorry, forgot I had posted rolls here but not posted my action post. I'll do so sometime today.

Climb check 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11

I'm checking in to say that I'm sorry for the delay in this game. This week has been a nightmare at work and I have not had the free time I usually do. As usual I'll be unable to post over the weekend, but I will do my darnedest to do a round update on monday.

that's ok, thanks for letting us know

I've been in a similar bind at work this week...real life comes first.

I weighed this one for a while. The next round was going to be the last one. All the really important things had happened. You guys-

Held the line against the brown slaad
Survived the fire and all the random events
and spotted the shapeshifter

-which were your win conditions.

So i decided to clean things up with a short cut-away and some exposition.

Sorry it took so long, and I hope that doesn't feel anti-climactic.

Hope you enjoyed your introduction to Door Street and the city of Arch.

Here's your Grab Bag. Feel free to trade them or sell them if you don't like what you get.

Also, you are now all second level.

There's going to be a "training scene" in a bit which will mark the narrative reason for a significant skill boost, but you can all go ahead and update your mechanics now.

What HP gain mechanic should we use? Normal die? Half + half die? Half rounded up? Other?

I like Half and Half.

Roll 1/2 your usual hit dice and add half the usual hit dice value.

So, 1d10 becomes 1d5+5

Great way to end the scene Doomed! To keep things moving in a pbp it's ok to do stuff like that.

And yay for the level up! Will require some time to adjust my character (come to think of it.... this might actually be my first pbp character to level up... how sad!).

Did we get to buy anything we wanted?

hitpoints for 2nd level: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

edit: Cure Poison = Neutralize Poison?
edit2: Alchemical Ice = Liquid Ice?

Another question since we've abandoned the gladitorial game:
Can I ditch the Strong Arm Subtle Wrist trait (not going to be a net-thrower) and get different trait instead (Suspicious for instance)?

Great wrap up summary DM Doomed!

and sweet deal on the level up!!

HP = 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6 + current 10 + 1 Con + 1 Favored class = 18

gain Ki Pool but I screwed myself with the low Cha so Im guessing this starts at 0 or do I get a minimum of 1? this will directly affect which ninja trick I pick.

HP roll (barbarian): 1d6 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11
Favored class to skill points.
Rage power: Superstition
Gain DR 1/-, 2/lethal

HP Roll: 1d4 + 4 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 4 + 3 = 9

Unbalancing Counter (AoO I make them flat-footed)
Bonus Monk Feat - Deflect Arrows
Evasion

[dice=HP Roll]1d4+4+3

Unbalancing Counter (AoO I make render them flat-footed)
Bonus Monk Feat - Deflect Arrows
Evasion

Joboo, we should stay near Ryujin for those extra backstabbings. :D

good call Lorn!

I'll set them up, you knock 'em down. (well technically I'll probably knock them down and then set them up, but you get the idea!)

Lots to do today, but I should be able to update everything later today.

1d4 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7 , plus 2 from con

spellcraft on token 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15

Don't worry about spellcrafting the items, they're all labeled for easy use.

as for your questions-

Joboo, Sure, let's go minimum 1.

Lorn, correct on both counts with the potions. Also, retraining that trait is fine.

Mel gains:

1d3 + 3 + 2 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 3 + 2 + 1 = 7 Hitpoints (HD + Con + Favored Class)

Can memorize an additional cantrip per day

Can memorize an additional 1st level spell per day

Familiar learns: Unshakable Chill (Patron Spell), Charm Person, Comprehend Languages

+1 Base Attack

+1 Will Save

Slumber Hex

a rank in the following skills:

Knowledge (Arcana)
Knowledge (History)
Knowledge (Nature)
Knowledge (Planes)
Perception
Spellcraft
Use Magic Device

I will try to "feed" one of my scrolls of Obscuring Mist to my familiar so he can "learn" it.

Spellcraft DC 16 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (18) + 9 = 27

Also have to level up my familiar

Thanks DM!

gonna go with Fast Stealth for my trick.

@Joboooh yeah you go hide while they kick my ass when Ryujin is down (which he obviously will be, his luck must run out anytime soon)
:D

@Doomed: Ok great, thanks! Potions sound like fun.

edit: just read Joboo's post, lol! Great idea, little goblin that feeds his pet abberation all the stuff even he doesn't want.

haha Lorn! there isnt much Jobbo wont eat. hope the little girl doesnt like coins though.

By the way folks, I know your shopping got interrupted. You'll be able to continue on as soon as you're done talking to Darian.

This is one of four districts on Door Street. If you'd like to explore them now, we can do that, or we can cut straight to academy training day 1.

Taking votes until Monday night.

I vote for Academy Training

Well I'm curious about the rest of Door Street but Academy Training sounds fine with me too (not with Lorn though!). I'm fine with either.

Joboo is enjoying his freedom in the city but is all about learning how to be more sneaky and such first. Onward to training!

adding an iron pot w/lid and some string to tie it shut to my shopping list

pot - 8 sp
string - 1 cp

Training works for me.

A monk always needs more training

Will Lorth be allowed to return to do his shopping later? - as there is no way in hell that he would continue to casually browse given the indignity of his condition.

Will have level up done when I get a chance.

"I roll for life!"

1d8 ⇒ 7

I hope we get an 80's-style training montage with Muscle Wizard ;-)

You're the best, AROUND!

I think I'm ready to move on, I bought most of the stuff on my list and adjusted my character info accordingly.
