This will be a race against time, so be careful what you do. There will be a chance to measure time.
Searching a room for texts requires a successful skill check, and multiple PCs can search an area simultaneously. Each researching PC can attempt a
Linguistics, Knowledge (history), or text-based Craft or Profession check (such as Profession [librarian] or Craft [bookbinding]) to find texts.
A PC might use a different skill or ability albeit with a penalty ranging from –2 to –5 at your discretion. Several areas also identify additional
skill check options that PCs may use without penalty. PCs who use magic or class abilities in a particularly creative or relevant way might receive up to a +5 bonus on a check at your discretion. Except where noted, the skill check DC is 14.


The group begin the scenario just outside the Kitharodian Academy, where crowds of commoners and nobility alike jostle to enter the music hall. You have no difficulty pushing your way into the increasingly crowded
building, but convincing an usher or other member of the Kitharodian staff to show you to the library requires effort—even if you show their letter from Arch-Exarch Gregorian.

Bacleive doesn't have any of those skills and they are all trained only. Not a good start for me.

Silver Crusade

Same here :(

But maybe we can prevent the others from getting caught -for example, by pretending to be guards checking on the library from time to time?


As it says you can try for example perception. But that with a malus.

The Exchange

Well, Craft(Book-binding) can be done untrained...


Folks, what can I do to keep the momentum.
You have to start telling me what you do.

Usually can tell time by casting Light on something. Bacleive uses his Wayfinder to cast on his helmet.

Silver Crusade

I have been in bed most if the day with either allergies or a cold that seems to want to settle into my chest.

Question for GM Helikon:
Could Bacleive use Profession(Soldier) to help him look for military-type cyphers?


Bacleive:
Yes you could. I will keep that in mind. But the area where you are is not very military minded.

Folks you are on a tight schedule, if just one or two persons search and the rest just sit tight, you will fail this. you have already wasted preciouse time.

The Exchange

@Helikon: I was assuming that the others were 'assisting' me (to reduce time taken), even if they weren't rolling to give a bonus?

I did not think you could assist if you were not trained in the profession.

I will make general perception rolls and specific profession each room.

Discussion of Mechanics:
From what I remember of the scenario from when I ran it (which is, I admit, half a decade ago), it is, essentially, a group check - whoever rolls the highest (*regardless* of the skill used) is counted as the primary, and anyone else who beats the DC is counted as 'aiding' the primary.

The amount of time it takes to search a room is also divided by the number of PCs helping to search (so the GM is right in saying that if most of the party is standing around watching a few of us do the 'research' we will quickly run out of time).


Xuan is absolutely correct in his accesment.
The more people search, and manage the aid roll the better.
@Baclaive I will tell you when and if Profession soldier is useable.
The Lion blades are primerily bards. So you would have a lot better chances with perform ;-)

If you're worrying about Desynthia, everything is fine! She's just gone on vacation for a few days :)

(Desynthia is played by my dad IRL)

Silver Crusade

Vacation? What are those?

No idea. Apparently it involves things like "chilling" and "relaxing". People are weird.


As I am on vacation myself, including laying at the pool, swimming in the sea, enjoying great food, pampering my child, I know what i means!

Silver Crusade

As a teacher this is not something I would know about, lol.


As a teacher you do not know what that means.
Well 6 weeks of summer holidays, 2 weeks of easter, one week of spring, 2 weeks of X-mas, 2 weeks of fall and one week of winter holidays here teachers have the very highest rate of holidays.

Holidays are often spent correcting the students' homework, grading papers, and preparing your next classes... Assuming that they should change the courses (with new manuals or new themes), summer holidays are spent working on the courses you'll have to teach.

All these holiday weeks seem wonderful on paper, but in reality, it's quite hard to catch a break, especially if you're the hard-working, perfectionist type, who is going to spend a lot of additional hours preparing new activites and memorizing what you're going to say for each different class :)

Busted.

Silver Crusade

This coming year I will be teaching 2 sections of Latin, so I will be preparing that stuff. I am really excited about it though, oh and teaching 2 sections in Summer School.

We don't get 2 week for Easter. We do start in the middle of August and the district wants to add 10 days this coming year so we would start at the end of July.

Silver Crusade

1 person marked this as a favorite.

FYI: The Easter Triduum has begun. I may or may not be around that much this weekend.

When I printed it out I got a small print out with a blue background that had the left side cut off. There is also only one for 1-2 circled.

Is it possible to get normal ones? I am not familiar with Goggle Docs at all.

@Baclieve: I just copy-pasted the picture into Word, then re-sized it to fill the page. It then printed just fine.

I'll give that a try. Thank you for the suggestion.
