I think Borgol will benefit the most from the belt, so I'm okay with letting him take it.
Let's pencil it in as a 'for now' thing - I'll make sure it's still on the pile when we do the next split.
Remy would like to choose a monk's robe for her reward, but that is only 13,000 gp. Could she also add the ability for it to grant +2 Charisma?
Hmmmm.... 20,000... Ah! Perfect.
Maddie will take a Ring of Invisibility.
We each get something worth 20,000? I'll have a look today!
Sure, sounds fine...wahts the worst that can...wait a second...oh god! a sexy monk! Aaaaah!
Heh, thanks! I'll update my character sheet now. :)
Since we're merging things, I'd be delighted with a Phylactery of Positive Channeling that also bumps Charisma by 2 -- boosting my channels and their effectiveness. For some reason, I think that might be very important soon.
Also: since we're Pathfinder agents, Borgol would ask for a wayfinder -- he'd like to not have this thing circling his head all the time. Have to imagine seeing the movement in his peripheral vision is driving him crazy, being a semi-paranoid scouty type, especially.
Finally decided: I'm going to do a +2 rallying singing steel buckler. I'll add it in after this fight.

As a side question, I have left a few messages to Alustria's dms … and she is not responding at all. It has been just over a month since she has posted something. This is my first time gm-ing a long term game like this, from people's experiences how long should a player be given before we assign them as inactive?
I usually give them at least 2 months. After that, I mark them as inactive and potentially seek a replacement.
I also check the other games that they are in. If there is no activity on any of their games for the same amount of time, then it usually is an indication that RL has gotten in the way and they probably won't be back.
Yeah, it looks like Alustria's player hasn't done anything since their last Gameplay post. Personally, I feel like after a month with no contact, they're unlikely to return any time soon.
Non-response to DMs *and* away for a month (including other posts) seems pretty telling to me.
Might be worth starting a recruitment for a new divine caster - if she comes back, then she'll just 'win' the recruitment.
Snazzy. Though, I'd updated as if it were. ;)
I will be out of town without internet access from Saturday 2/29 until Friday 3/6. It may take me until the following Monday to catch up on everything.
GM, please bot me as necessary.
Back now, by the way. Not sure what the effects of the curse are or if I am slowed or not, so GM, please adjust my rolls if necessary. I am fairly certain d10 goes to 3d6 when enlarged but it might be 2d8.
Having had a past character prone to enlarging with a Dwarven Waraxe - it's 2d8. ;)
One less. :)
I will be away and unable to post for the period beginning Wednesday the 12th until Monday the 23rd - holiday, and not expecting internet service.
Please feel free to bot Borgol as needed - his jumble of feelings would probably be having him keep rather quiet during the next exchange (including the sudden appearance of what might actually be a female Remy..), unless the conversation turns to something Erastil wouldn't let him get away with.
That said, I'll still be here to post Tuesday and maybe even squeeze one in Wednesday morning.

Alright everyone, I am opening up the group discussion to see if you would like to find a new replacement player for Alustria. I have made arrangements for her 'surprise exit' out of the story, but it is up to you if you would like another someone to cover that spot.
I personally do not mind, which is why I am leaving the decision to you.
I think we could benefit from it, but our party is fairly balanced already, so we could probably survive without someone.
Yeah, my only concern is that Flik would have to step up to provide healing though. Perhaps we should invest in a wand of cure serious wounds.
I don't mind healing--though it could be tough for me to do condition removal. It's tough to get by without a way to get rid of ability damage.
Although it would be good to have a dedicated healer, I am good either way.
I repeat the good wishes! We are looking at at least 2 weeks of "social distancing" right now. All stores are closed except grocery stores, pharmacies, gas stations, and take-out food. Spirits are high though, and my kids have online school, so things are as normal as can be hoped.
I'm personally upset because between Friday to Monday my college changed their mind from 'Okay, this is a bit iffy, you can go home if you want, but classes will be moved online' to 'OKAY, everybody leave right now,' and leaving campus means that I'm just more likely to get sick....
Anyway. I understand why it's important, but it's still just an enormous pain for everyone on campus.
This round, I think Alustria should direct her alligator to attack the monster Remy is attacking, and she should start casting call lightning.
Oo, good call. Perfect situation for call lightning.
Also, this is probably the best I've ever done with a silent image. It makes me happy, as I want to lean into the idea for Flik of illusions and shadow magic drawing on different dimensions or timelines.
Audrahni can toss out a healing channel while Alustria attacks with lightning and her summon. She can also cast heat metal on Mozamer.
Thanks Tealk! I'm home as well. We're keeping ourselves busy over here, but there is no non-essential travel, so family is getting a little stir crazy.
I'm back, in self-isolation (having been out of country, it's necessary) and catching up. ;)
I will say that I'm a little disappointed to miss having Borgol being even more confused and jumbled and probably say something (else) stupid while the Runelord was present. ;)
Borgol, you could always back post your part of the conversation while Sorshen was present. Remy would be happy to retroactively banter with you as well. :)
Assuming we survive this, I'll do just that.
We'll be fine!
...I hope. :D

So, just wanted to clarify this for my own sake. If a characters is under the effects of haste, and they fail agasint slow, does this only dispel the haste effect, or does it also add the slow penalty? Can't find somewhere where it outlines this clearly. And I want to make sure I am doing this right by you.
Haste counters and dispels Slow
There's a matching one for Slow as well.
From a RAW perspective, I think this means that you could cast Haste/Slow to attempt to dispel the other from the targets of the spell, akin to Dispel Magic, and if you don't do that, they just both occur at the same time on the target.
From an RAI perspective, though, I think the idea is that they just cancel each other out on any target that has both of them active.
Personally, I feel that the 'Haste and Slow just cancel each other' is probably the simplest way to run it, which I am generally in favor of.
I usually run it as haste and slow canceling each other as well.
A little late - but - I've always also done the same - if the slow takes it knocks out the haste - they're the same level spell after all. Otherwise slow (or haste) are super-powerful based on whichever happens last -- because it would have to work both ways, leading to: "Look, everyone's slowed, but I cast haste and now they're at double speed, as if the slow never happened."
Also, I should probably have asked my "how many actions" question here. Apologies.
Wait, there was a gameplay post?
Huh. It didn't show up for me. Weird. I wonder why.
Give me a minute and I'll have my action up.
The die roller hates us today. :(
