Yeah sure

Rinika is just jealous. Hmm, good point though, don't want a literal cat fight to break out.

And yes, Conor is that great ... in his own head.

Aha!

Nothing to do with him being a huge chad...

Also, if Magic Arms and Armor seems better in two levels:
Restful and Comfort are options too (though you'd still need help to put on the armor at least once...)

Also Bed of Iron is a thing, though at 1 spell slot a day it's expensive.

As for the Unseen Servant item, my first thought is a burnt clay figurine without fine features that either projects an unseen servant or grows to the size of one for an hour, in either case acting as the spell.

I suppose we could also change it slightly to only help with donning armor. That'd drop the duration by >90% and prevent us from using it for triggering traps for the first hour of the day, though. Maybe make it use activated and only help with donning armor? Would that be worth the same amount?

Oh, and until then, one of Nik's shamblers (or, more likely, Rinika) can help Conor out xD

Also, apparently, my attempts to rearrange posts haven't turned out as planned:

Yeah, Bed of Iron is certainly a possibility, one I had planned on preparing daily if we ever end up on a long trek through the wilderness, communal endure elements as well. With my low caster level, I view my spellcasting as a utility function over anything superpowerful, especially with the paladin list and not being Good.

What about Hero's Defiance? I know it's situational, but it's so smexy xD

Archetype loses Lay on Hands

:(
:*(

Welp. There's always things like endure elements and fastidiousness...

So... my comp has a BSOD that crashes during repair boots. I'm adjusting to phone posts, but things may be terse for a bit.

I'm going to fast forward to Sigil sometime tomorrow.

Days: 3d6 ⇒ (3, 1, 5) = 9

That's a 9 day journey back to the portal.

yay, time enough to scribe 9 scrolls worth less than 200gp ^^

Also, does that include time to go shopping for a void stick and deathwatch eyes? :3
(and would Nik be able to find those two things?)

Once you get back to Sigil.

Yeah, I figured xD

Also, after picking 9 scrolls (2 levitate, 1 comprehend lang, 5 endure elemnts, 1 enlarge person, so far), I realized I want a bunch more, so Nik will also have materials for more scrolls on him xD

BTW, what is the going rate for a spellkey thing for the astral plane? :3
Would we go to that lady that makes fun of Nik? :3

Are there any magic items that make smites better, or have more of them?

Just thinking if there's something to buy more fun than the boring standby belt of STR, amulet of Nat armor, etc.

And Nik needs a Robe of Bones, just for the lulz

Edit: looks like bracers of the avenging knight seem to be what I was after, but out of my price range at this time I think.

don't forget we're doing automatic bonus progression. We already have +2 to a physical stat and a mental state :3

There are so many I'm not sure which one you mean. But I can put that in the downtime write up I forgot I was going to do today.

I meant Lu, aka Alluvius Ruskin, the owner Tivuun’s Antiquities

Good call on the multiple ladies that make fun of Nik xD
There's Ethyl, Lu, probably Rinika, and I think someone else... was that one gnome a girl?

That you saved with Ethyl? Yes. And she wasn't making fun of Nik more of failing to recognize his consciousness.

Oh don't forget Selveaemmignus Laendrolsiar. And Feye will probably verbally abuse Nik if she ever makes an appearance.

Right, I want to spend my cash on something fun

A ring of featherfall, perhaps, after that whole vanishing walking tower nonsense.

Gutbite belt seems like fun, useful, and a good response to always getting grapples by our evil DM ;)

Yknow I'd say that's gross but I think Ms. Deadspot is living in a glass house on this one.

I especially enjoy that it can sustain the wearer by eating meat and only meat.

I see the tavern scene, swilling beer in both hands while his belt chomps away at roast beast.

Feels very Sigil.

as awesome as that sounds, I'd like to point out: Armor spikes.
Also, that item should be cheapter by... 4k? 'cause you won't get the con boost from it :3

I suppose a hilariously awesome mouth that only eats meat and pretends to be armor spikes isn't that bad at only 500gp...
Actually... Nik can't get armor spikes the normal way... HMMMmmmmmm...

That bone spell Rinika knows gives him armor spikes!

True. I've never used ABP before but

Items that only grant bonuses to AC, saving throws, and ability scores don’t exist in this variant, and wish and similar spells never grant inherent bonuses to ability scores

It doesn't ONLY grant a con bonus ;)

I just thought it looked fun as I perused the wonderous items list.

But then again, probably too creepy for Conor, he is a bit vain.

Looking stuff over, probably just going to buy some more various potions (mostly healing), maybe another wand of CLW, and save for those sweet extra powerful smiting bracers whenever i get 14000 ish gold and/or Nik learns how to make them for me ;)

lol. Now I'm really torn between grabbing another crafting feat and making illusory magic require only 1 slot instead of 2...

Amusingly I was just listening to the Find The Path actual play podcast and they received This which made me chuckle.

Probably not worth spending so much cash for so little in game benefit, but it fit the discussion quite well.

I'll be vacationing with unknown reception or access to internet thurs-sun, put Nansi in control if necessary.

My cat tubes are clogged. I'll see you whenever it gets plunged.

welp, I guess I'll just have to study moar for finals...

@GM: should I assume high enough availability of the void stick and deathwatch goggles in Sigil that I'd have no trouble purchasing them offscreen at the standard 2k and 2.5k prices? :3

Here is a question for everyone to ponder (incl GM, probay most of all) while we wait for everyone to get back and ready.

I've been thinking with Jek and Cir'gir being large, and Niks ever increasing (we hope!!) horde of shamblers that the front line is getting a bit crowded for ol Conor, who's schtick is basically just melee with a minor amount of utility involved.

Pair that with the fact that we have a pretty big vulnerability vs curses and disease when we go a 'wandering the planes, been pretty lucky so far about that.

So I was thinking that if everyone wants, I can have Conor ride off into the sunset (go get drunk with Vaascht) and perhaps think about bringing a cleric on board. The one I am thinking of trying is a more blaster focused fire Theologian (I'm thinking a priest of sekhmet from our Egypt, but years after the very confusing transition to a place where magic and monsters are real) who can still access the whole cleric list so we can have some access to restoration and cures.

Won't go full channel, but would grab versatile and selective so I can channel heals for both types of ... uh, dead. Undead and nondead? While still chucking evocation magic around the place.

Give Nik a fireball buddy, make all these hordes AD&D modules like to throw at us cry :)

Or I can stick with Conor if you all prefer, I like him too, especially now that hitting people makes them cry.

(Yes, I'm a bit of a character schizophrenic, I don't play too many games at once and therefore always have the next one in mah brain)

lol, play whatever you want. I feel like we were just getting to know Conor.

Would you believe that Sekhmet isn't in any of the literature? What were you thinking along the lines of domains and alignment?

Edit: No planescape literature! But Pathfinder has us covered.

Yeah, pathfinder has it.

Part of what called me was Wikipedia mentioning that there's historical evidence (for what Wikipedia is worth anyway) that getting wasted drinking beer was a holy practice for priestesses of Sekhmet. I'd bet they'd get along well with Cayden ... however his last name is spelled.

Plus the armor you get in Assassin's Creed Origins is BA.

But really I can go either way, I'm just thinking out loud. Got too much time on my hands, none of my games are posting all that much this week, plus my copy of Cyberpunk 2077 won't get in till Monday and I hear there's a massive game day patch to download yet.

lol, play whatever you want. I feel like we were just getting to know Conor.

I second that.

Also, I'm a big fan of hitting people and making them cry, but I also really like full casters :3

edit1:
@GM: is Maanzecorian someone Nik would know?
Is it that same god of the illithids I just looked up? O.o
Sounds related to that illithid whose head exploded...

edit2:
Waaaaaaiiiiiit-a-minute. Didn't that illithid specifically say Maanzecorian? xD

edit3: "God is dead!" blah blah Maanzecorian was murdered and secrets were lost.

I'd also like to point out that Rinika wont let Nik touch her tail, so he still wont have a chance with her even if Conor leaves xD

Confidence, my man, confidence. And a good smile. And maybe stop looking at her like you'd like to make her one of your shamblers... that might help :D

lol.

Too bad Nik will likely never learn that lesson :P
Maybe having a shambler army will be close enough, though xD

Its a religion check. And you may be on to something.

I'm mainly researching Nik's request right now. I know most of your scenes aren't done but I've accomplished what I needed with them. You'll have three weeks in the cage before I shuffle you to the next chapter of the adventure.

Yay research! Thanks xD

Also, three weeks? Nik will actually catch up on his doodles and maybe even have time to check out a library on illithid religion xD

Unrelated: Killer Clown Ghosts sounds like a good band name.

Makes me want to watch Killer Klowns From Outer Space. What a campy, horrible, amazing, B horror movie.

So, when I next ride Jek into battle, will casting This help us out?

Things that make you go hmmmmm ;P

That makes a mithril breast plate really tempting... (4800 gold for large and unusual)

Ha, if that works. With your charge speed, dual Lances, challenge, smite, plus I can share half my smite bonuses...

We could make some big bad's day real unpleasant for a round or two.

FTFY.

What's Jek's will save again?

Mithral also makes medium armor count as light for everything but proficiency...
if you get one of those things that reduces armor check penalties (Armor Expert or Comfort), you can have a mithral breastplate that counts as light armor and causes no problems for someone with light armor proficiency but not medium armor proficiency :3

Also, if you want a light load to go with your light armor, Burdenless is another nice buff for armor that actually suits Jek's job :3

What's Jek's will save again?

remind me to research Mind Blank ASAP...

Forgot to mention using a spell key increases the casting time. It works like metamagic for sorcerers.

@GM Would greensteel and impact bonuses stack?

@GM Also I forgot to ask this before, does greensteel have to be mostly metal to work and if so could I get a custom Earthbreaker?

Sure it stacks.

Greensteel does have to be made of metal and the increase to damage only affects slashing and piercing weapons. So no it doesn't work with an earthbreaker. You would still benefit from decreased weight and increased hardness/hp though.

Huh, looking over my character in the generator app, apparently there is one paladin aura that isn't replaced (in the description either)

Aura of Courage (Su)

At 3rd level, a paladin is immune to fear (magical or otherwise). Each ally within 10 feet of her gains a +4 morale bonus on saving throws against fear effects. This ability functions only while the paladin is conscious, not if she is unconscious or dead.

So I guess you all get to be extra brave around Conor, I had assumed all the auras got zeroed out.
