Ashava’s blessing has granted a temporary form of lycanthropy that is fully under your control. This has no influence on your character’s alignment, personality, or motivations unless you would like to make this a transformative experience for your character. The blessing has the following effects.
You can change shape. You have three forms—your typical form, a wolf form, and a hybrid form. You can shift to any of your three forms as a move action. If this PC has earned the Celestial Lycanthropy boon from #10–05: Mysteries Under Moonlight, Part 1, you gain that boon’s benefits for free for this entire scenario.
HYBRID FORM
If you shift to your hybrid form, you gain the following benefits.
Senses: Your senses sharpen, granting you darkvision (60 feet), low-light vision, and scent.
Defenses: You gain DR 5/silver and a +2 bonus to natural armor.
Attacks: You gain a bite attack that deals 1d6 points of damage if you are Medium or 1d4 if you are Small. If the bite attack hits, you can attempt a combat maneuver check to trip your target as a free action.
Pack Leader: You can communicate and empathize with wolves. You can use Diplomacy to alter a wolf’s attitude, and you gain a +4 racial bonus on the check when doing so.
WOLF FORM
If you shift to your wolf form, you gain all of the benefits listed for the hybrid form as well as the following two effects.
Speed: Your base speed increases to 50 feet.
Wolf Shape: All of the gear that you are carrying or wearing melds into your body until you switch to another form. All items that give constant bonuses still give their bonuses, except armor, which does not function. Unless you have other feats or class features that would allow you to do so, you cannot speak, cast spells, or manipulate objects that would require the use of hands.

I see I've got a folio reroll (and a Faction Pin bonus!) to spend on my Day Job roll...:

Good to know it wasn't just me; I thought maybe it was because the DM'd remembered I'd wanted to use my folio reroll (which certainly paid off!).
By the way, I'm willing to listen to opinions on this one: Do you think the Cunning feat (i.e. the skill point-equivalent of Toughness) is worth it for Psychics? On the one hand, anyone with a super-high INT is going to get beaucoup de skill points, and that would be enough for a Wizard or a Witch, but Psychics have an even broader range of class skills....

And I'm not super familiar with the Psychic class but I think it would depend on how you see the character. Is being a sort of jack-of-all-trades his thing or does he prefer to focus on a narrower range of topics/skills?
Ok, Thror's profile has been updated. He gains an extra smite evil attempt, a +1 to his str, a +1 increase to fort and will, and another +1 to perception, sense motive and Knowledge religion (about time, some might say...). Unfortunately his template does not allow him to get channel energy but he can convert his lay on hands to extra smite evil attempts.
Thror also gains the ability to cast spells and he memorizes Divine Favor.
As for the equipment: Thror sells his old and rusty dwarven waraxe (+15gp) and his new and shiny masterwork dwarven waraxe (+165gp). Then he buys a masterwork dwarven waraxe (-660gp) which he gets enchanted with a +1 enchantment (-2000gp), he also gets his masterwork full plate armor enchanted with a +1 enchantment (-1000gp) and finally he buys a ring of protection +1 (-2000gp).
He also invests 2PP for a wand of protection from evil and another 2PP for a wand of cure light wounds.

Wait, what? Why waste 495 gp selling what you have just to get the same thing (I don't understand how the new one costs 660 gp, either) when you could just get the one already you have enchanted???

Ahem... I omitted the “cold iron” part in that message... XD
Ahhh. I could be wrong (I sure hope not), but I don't think the price-doubling effect of cold iron extends to the masterwork fee.
Abaal. It's been a long time. I didn't realize that was you.

So if we roll a number on the die we get a boon right? ;)

I don't know that anyone said what specific numbers were boon-worthy yet. So it might be 4 squared, which, I might add, would be awwwwwesome.

By the way, Fran is going to go off on a little side mission to the Blakros Museum while we're waiting for the next full moon...
(Heading out to a convention tomorrow evening and I'm planning to play her for Penumbral Accords. This won't affect her level, just the amount of gold she'll have to spend before we do Part 2.)

While I'll be out of town Monday and Tuesday next week I'll have my chromebook with me and should be able to check in and make posts in the evenings, so I'm good with starting next week if everyone else is.
For purposes of calculating tier, I actually ended up playing Fran in two scenarios at the convention last weekend so she's now 5th level. Her leveling up has been done so all I need to do is figure out her purchases, which I will do on Sunday.

I won't be ready for a few days, but in the meantime can you post your character information? Some of your info has changed since last time, so just post what changes I need to make. Abaal, you should post everything, since you are new.

Sorry for my absence; I've had an uncommonly busy week (starting with my birthday, this year on Easter!).
RE the transformation: Do we not get ability score boosts? I believe lycanthropy normally grants that, and they make it sound like it's all the same other than the preserved mind....
