FOR THOSE THAT HAVE BEEN CHOSEN FOR THIS GAME:

Please have your entire character sheet available in your character’s profile page and basic statistics next to your name in your posts.

Feel free to ask me for more details or assistance.

If your post is entirely OOC, let’s put it here instead of in the Gameplay thread.

dot.

looking forward to the game :)

I suppose we want the final two players to post before we move on.

Yes, I am waiting for them currently.

Hey folks, I'll be away this weekend with limited access to post. Best case, I'll be able to do short posts through the weekend. Worst case, I'll catch up Sunday afternoon.

(since this game only just started, for context, this is a roughly monthly occurrence, usually with more advance notice)

Hi folks... sorry for the delay. The family has been away on holiday and I was waiting to pick a character that would best fit the party. Given my options, I don’t think it will matter to much either way so I’m going to go with my kineticist.

FYI: I’ll spend 1 burn to boost Enveloping Winds and activate Elemental Overflow.

Pazacku, can you please also include the details of your animal companion on the slides, e.g. perception etc.

Thanks

If you have standard preparation for a day please include that in your next post with RP or whatever you wish your character to do.

Thanks

@Pazacku, regarding the spoiler for Pai in Gameplay: Pai would thank you for reassuring her. She doesn't know why she can't shake that particular encounter as she has all of her others, and tries really hard to make sure it doesn't get in the way of doing her job. She'd be so very relieved to hear that she did well. No pressure or obligation to act on this info, just an explanation to acknowledge what you posted. :)

You can be glad you made your diplomacy roll. :-)

This could have been a tpk with three characters.

Perhaps it’s time to collect the rest of our pack and return to vanquish the evil goblins?

yeah i'm good with that.

Sorry, very busy at work at the moment! Will update tomorrow.

This might be subject to GM interpretation, so happy to play it as you deem appropriate but the flat-foot description suggests that you lose your DEX bonus until you have you first "regular" turn in the initiative order. It has been interpreted both ways that "regular" is to suggest "non-surprise round" or any action taken. Here is the verbatim text from the handbook. Again, happy to do as you like. Emphasis mine, below.

PHB wrote:

Flat-Footed: At the start of a battle, before you have had a

chance to act (specifically, before your first regular turn in
the initiative order), you are flat-footed. You can’t use your
Dexterity bonus to AC (if any) while flat-footed. Barbarians
and rogues of high enough level have the uncanny dodge
extraordinary ability, which means that they cannot be
caught flat-footed. Characters with uncanny dodge retain
their Dexterity bonus to their AC and can make attacks
of opportunity before they have acted in the first round
of combat. A flat-footed character can’t make attacks of
opportunity, unless he has the Combat Reflexes feat.

Thank you. Regular turn is not defined and I believe it is the first time you act also in a surprise round. I had this come up before.

Totally. I did some more reading and found a Rogue talent that supports your interpretation.

Hi everyone! I hope you all had a good weekend. How's everyone doing? :)

Hi guys, will resolve the western door on Monday.

The "Channel" revelation is really paying off for Arin this scenario.

Giovanni unfortunately has to get a spell casting service to remove blindness.

Are you sharing the cost?

Can you also check your details on the first slide.

Want to complete the chronicle sheets. :-)

oh are we done? cool. yeah i think it's 150gp

Van will pitch in for that. How much you need?

Very generous, but I can cover it. Thank you.

Yeah, I'm glad to pitch in, team effort and all. If 6-ways, that 25gp each (assuming all agree, and I don't mean to force anyone's hand).

Doh, ninja'd.

Pai will happily pitch in. Are you sure you won't let us share the burden, Giovanni?

Truly appreciate the offer, folks. I've got plenty to cover it.

The game is essentially finished. :-)

You can RP your return and what your conclusion is or how you greet the caravan.

I am on vacation and don’t have the pdf so will post final debriefing on Tuesday.

Nice! Have a wonderful time!

Hi! Just a heads up, I'll be away this weekend on a camping trip from Saturday early morning until mid-day Sunday (US/Pacific time). I'll be unable to post while I'm out there, but able to resume Sunday afternoon (so really only 1.5d away). Feel free to bot me as necessary.

The game is finished. ;-)

Please check the slides so that all your details are correct for the chronicle sheets.

Van is good.

Arin is correct on the slides

Peregryne's details are correct.

good for me

Pai's checks out.

Super sorry, but for the OSP boon reporting I also need your email address which you can also include in the table in the slides please.

Thanks!!

udpated.

Well... the slides are open to whoever can find the link, and searchbots (or worse) can crawl these pages and find them, so could we please PM you our emails instead of leaving them out there to be harvested?

Of course!! You can pm me your mail address!!

Was the last foe a divine spell caster of an evil aligned deity?

And email address has been added.

If something is wrong please tell me!

Yes, correct Pazacku!

Got it. Looks good. Thank you.

^ Ditto.

Mine looks good. Thanks!

Looks good, thanks.

fantastic, thank you. i'll remove the 150 for spellcasting services on my side.

Perfect. Sorry I forgot to include that.

not a problem. it's a formality, really

Looks good. Thanks for running a great game!

We had a group of fun characters too. Hope to see you all at a table in the future (if you can tolerate Arin's creepy abyssal spouting :P)

Perfect. I will do the reporting over the weekend.
