There are clerics in Kaer Maga capable of casting resurrection, should the rest of the party survive.
At least I could remove the negative levels myself...
Nime knows raise dead.
Raise dead doesn’t work for death effects, alas.
Well ... poop.
That's just ... dumb.
Sorry Rudrik, no more Heroism.
I'm just gonna sit out till after Xmas... :'(
That just means that you can focus more energy on Harmony. :)
Shall I play Calendula while Shen is down or do you prefer to boss?
Either way can't post now but its the last day of term, so I finish work early! :D
You can play Calendula in the meantime. Her character sheet is not up to date though. I have been winging it.
Rudrik, you have evasion, so you would take no damage from the lightning bolt.
Evasion only works when you're wearing light or no armor.
Ah, awkward. :/
Because it's rarely come up, I have the memory of a sieve, and it'll be a while before I have the free time to look it up - how do you get out of a grapple?
Escape Artist or CMB check.
*looks at Theo's Escape Artist bonus*
...
CMB it is. I assume it's a standard action?
Yes, standard action.
There's only a couple rooms left here. You should probably explore and find the Bone Grimoire before somebody else potentially shows up to take it.
Rudrik, Theo? Good with continuing on or want to head back?
Well, I could use some healing.
Alright, you have a few doors to choose from. Let me know where you wanna go.
Sorry about how expensive this is going to be guys...
Nime doesn't have anything remotely like that in cash. She's been passing along all her surplus coin to Shen for her golem project. :)
Let me look through what we scavenged from this place ...
If we teleport out with everything we can get our grubby little mitts on then this is the list:
platinum coins 850
2x +1 composite longbow (+3 Str) 2700 x 2
wand of contagion (15 charges) 3375
wand of dispel magic (10 charges, CL 10) 9000
+2 wounding war-razor 32308
+1 ring of protection 2000
minor trinkets 2500
scroll of blade barrier 1650
scroll of heal 1125
scroll of shield of law 3000
scroll of windwalk 1650
illuminated manuscript 3000
sweetmeat bowl 600
lyre of building 13000
Minkaian rug 750
Total Value of Goods: 79358 gp
Selling everything at 50%: 39679 gp
Subtracting the 11k for a resurrection right off the top gives us: 29,529 gp (after including the coins).
Dividing that up among the five of us gives 5,905 gp and 8 sp each
Yay! Money. More into the golem project :D
I can pay, though based on the ledger above it looks unnecessary.
I can cast restoration on myself using 4 of my bodily purge dice and because Resurrection only gives 1 neg level I should be fine?
My mistake, I thought resurrection gave you two negative levels like raise dead. You are fine then, Shenuska. :)
Yay! :D
Is there anything else you would like to do in Kaer Maga? Any purchases to make before you presumably teleport to Magnimar and travel to the isle of Xin?
Nothing for me. Unless I can do some research on the Runelord of Gluttony and what we're likely to face. We know he's a lich, but I'll spend some time in libraries for more info!
Must suck to be all about eating, and be unable to eat.
How much time we got? Upgrading existing gear perhaps?
There is no rush at all. You can take as much time as you need to upgrade gear or do anything else.
Well I can't think of anything Theo would want to do - as far as upgrading equipment he's still saving up for the new belt (still about eight grand short of being able to afford the materials for Shen or Nime to upgrade it).
And, with that in mind, he'd actively avoid any wine dealers or the like in town because he knows he'd blow too much of it on a bottle he thought was a good deal and a worthwhile investment. :P
Excellent. I'll blow my 40k for:
Bastard sword becomes +3 (16k for upgrade)
Adamantine full plate becomes +5 (24k for upgrade)
EDIT: I know it's more cost-effective to slowly increment your shield and your ring of protection at the same time, but I've never had a +5 item in PF so I'm kinda goofing around.
That works, Rudrik. So it will be about three weeks of downtime in Magnimar to wait for the enchantments.
Nime spends her three weeks just enjoying the time with her friends in their various endeavors. Her nights alternate with Shenuska (and Ayavah), Theo, and Calendula.
Since her discussion with Rudrik, she's much less demonstrative in public and hasn't appeared outside without clothing. Her interactions with the half-orc have felt stilted and awkward as if she doesn't know quite what to say to him.
She does, however, spend some time measuring his feet.
Want me to do research checks for a library Brainiac, or will you info dump me? Between Shen, Ayavah and Theo's family if they'll help we have some serious minds on this!
I will give you an info dump when I have more time.
Cool :) I'm trying to remember that as an INT caster I should make plans before the battle starts - unlike Mel and Terana who just wade in in their own unique ways...
I will move things along a bit later this morning.
Just missed the edit window, but Shenuska takes 5 backlash damage from the ritual. Also, Zuth has a 60-foot aura of fear. Everybody must make a DC 24 Will save at the start of their turn or be shaken for 1 minute.
Rudrik may act on the information of Zutha’s location Nime pointed out. The runelord is still invisible though so 50% miss chance on attacks if you cannot see him.
Ah, didn't catch that he'd turned invisible.
Also, belatedly pointing out that haste doesn't stack with blessing of fervor, which Nime cast on everybody. Theo may change his action if he'd like.
Problem is, there's not much else Theo could've done. Not with Zutha invisible. All he could do is make himself invisible as well and I'd be shocked of the fat bastard didn't plan ahead to see through invisibility.
Then again - casting it would at least let us know that he can see through invisibility which might save future spell slots.
Alright; Theo's now Invisible.
I always interpreted that blessing of fervor effects don't stack with similar effects from other spells like haste to mean that you can't get an extra extra attack from both of them, but you could get an extra attack from haste and stack it with the attack bonus from blessing of fervor.
From the spell description:
"These effects are not cumulative with similar effects, such as those provided by haste or a speed weapon, nor do they actually grant an extra action, so you can't use it to cast a second spell or otherwise take an extra action in the round. Blessing of fervor does not stack with haste."
It explicitly states that it doesn't start with haste at all, in addition to other effects that grant extra attacks.
I was reading the spell description while typing the prior comment. It's odd that it specifically says that it doesn't stack overlapping effects and calls out haste first. Well, whatever.
Rudrik and Theo are up!
So does Shen get the anti-death effect? Her body was there to be infused...
Also unlimited downtime is great for crafting but we don't have the money... grr! At least Ayavah and Shen can do all the crafting that can be afforded right? Should give us an animated pair of golem legs at a pinch!
