I'm flying out in the morning for a convention this week. I'll check in on the campaign probably once a day, but if delayed, now you know why.
Hello all. After being laid off, then job hunting, then having family issues, and now starting in with a new job I've found myself falling way behind on everything.
I didnt' even realize now long it had been since I logged into Paizo....
I am now officially back and able to actually post daily (for real this time) but wanted to check in first, as if you have already moved on without me I understand.
If you are cool with me returning, please let me know and I'll catch up.
Sorry to hear about the difficulty, Cindy. Yes please jump back in.
All of that sounds rough, but welcome back!
I think that we've all been moving a bit slower on here with "real-life" things taking up bandwidth for us. That's one of the things I appreciate about PbP, is that we can get caught back up.
All of that sounds rough, but welcome back!
This ^^
OK then. Looks like I have about 50 posts to read through so I'll try and get caught up and post tonight. :)
"Hello, ma'am. My name is Goldslip, and I am a nixie. I am pleased to meet you. What is your name?"
Wait, we're telling the truth? This plan is insane.
Also, I am 100% on board with having a team bear.
I really wish that this thing wasn't such a high CR. Night Terrors would be an exceptional thing to use on a sleeping enemy, to trap them in a dream and slowly kill them through CHA drain, but I have a feeling that a CR 11 beastie has too good a will save....
Dragons have all good saves >:3
If we throw enough in the room, he'll fail one of the saves, probably.
Back from the convention - I'm catching up this evening.

I'm going to have nightmares tonight about Snowball being Mommy....
That's the spirit, honey!
added ugly black square with ugly white dots in the middle and a brown border to represent the pit trap xD
(slide 6, which I assume is the copy-paste-able entrance)
Bob - if you were to make the wall and door a bit up the cave (about where the stalagmite on the N end of Cindy's wall is) then while people are dealing with the door and the traps, we could cast through viewholes in Cindy's wall, creating a pretty nasty defense. I'll put a dotted line on the cave entrance map to show where I mean.
Edit: never mind for some reason dotted lines are nowhere in the format options so I just made a thin grey line to show my proposition for Bob's wall location.
Edit #2: I also put the stats that GM gave for Cindy's wall on the map. It's not the strongest thing in the world at the moment but she plans on continuing to try to improve it during downtime so it will get nicer. She wants to have a lair/bedroom right there so she (and her future bear) can both be close to the forest and also help defend the cave. Also once she gets a good enough roll on a doll she's going to try and animate one as a poppet to have it act as a lookout for the cave.
GM - speaking of the poppet, since it requires a DC15 carpentry or dollmaking roll and 160gp, can she just spend the money once she has a decent roll on creating a doll or do I have to declare "this one is for a poppet" on one of her doll creations?
Thanks for putting stats on the map. Snowball, go ahead and do that for your pit as well.
Yes Cindy, you can wait to spend the money until you succeed on a doll.
Bob - just noticed I was updating slide 6 and you were updating slide 2 lol.
I made our changes on both of them so that they match now, and we should pick which one we are going to use for the future
re-added and labeled the pit trap xD
Got it.
*gasp*
Claudette has been holding a silver dragon prisoner?! Gosh, teenagers really are awful. ;-)
I considered summoning her just to give her a dressing down about keeping such cool prisoner a secret from me.

I'm assuming "Hatnah? Fatnah-eedah?" is because Snowball's mouth is full of Cinder bites.
I was trying to provoke Tina into coming by saying the two stupidest ones (Bob and Snowball) should be co-leaders, but it looks like she found her own motivation... Still, until Bob's comments are addressed he is going to continue to assume that he and Snowball are the co-leaders now.
I'm assuming "Hatnah? Fatnah-eedah?" is because Snowball's mouth is full of Cinder bites.
Bob gets it.
T/N: Partner? Partner-Leader?
I understood it was "talking with mouth full" but I was confused what it meant. Partner and leader came to mind but the translation was... oblique...
Much easier to swap out sounds you can't make than to swap them back in xD
Indeed!

Having bob and snowball be the leaders is perfect. That way I can blame you two when my half-baked conspiracy theory is disproven.

For a creature without legs, Bob sure seems to have strong opinions about walking.
I apologize for being absent the past 2.5 weeks, first the work convention, then inundated with family and friends Thanksgiving week, and then there was this week, let's just say it was one of those weeks. I'd like to join back in, but would understand if my protracted absence is problematic. Again, I apologize and would hope you can let me join in the fun again.
Oh yeah, would Xeria fly instead of ride on Ripper? I might've messed up Snowball's atomie detection bit xD
Also, welcome back. We killed Cinder, made friends-ish with some adventurers, and are currently marching off to the mountains so Snowball isn't always so overheated, I mean, to defeat the bad guy(s), er, to defeat the good guys probably maybe :D
Yes welcome back, Xeria! Good to have you.
Apt summary, Snowball. XD
Welcome back :)
Cindy's walking....that's all that is important.
...We killed Cinder...
Also, by 'We', I meant mostly Gorthug with some help from a few spells and ... mostly Tina xD

It was a team effort

and we're walking...
and we're walking...
Update is coming soon. Don't worry. ;)
It was a team effort
Especially if you count the BBQ afterwards
Well, it seems I am well suited for this adventure.
Based on the last post, for step 1 Cindy does not eat, and for step 2 she has a 10' fly speed so she would just take to the air and go at half speed instead of doing climb checks for quarter speed.
If anyone else were to ask for her help on things like survival checks she'd be happy to assist but it wouldn't be something she would immediately think of since it's unnecessary for her
Ah poor Goldslip! There will be other challenges better suited to you! Like buying the scrolls that were largely responsible for Cinder's death.
Xeria might be interested to know that she won init despite a nat 1 thanks to her investment in improved initiative.
Goldslip:
Cindy is still fascinated with the wilderness, and would spend nights (since she doesn't sleep) trying to find SNOW BEARS!!!
Due to that it can be assumed she might have seen you and she would have very happily given her big sister a hug.
Unfortunately we're in combat now so I guess that will have to just be mentioned as an aside in Discussion
You're pretty much always welcome to provide some flashback RP.
Don't forget both Tina and I have fear auras if these critters can feel fear
I gave up my fear aura, in exchange for my ability to sing. I will sing you the song of my people
Whoa! Nightmare creature has a 60 ft aura!! Will roll saves then!
Fear Aura is DC13 at the moment, for shaken (doesn't seem to have a duration so I guess it's keep rolling until pass?) Success means immune for 24 hours
In addition (for future reference, as I plan to roll intimidate a lot) she has frightening presence, which means any time she hits a DC15 on an intimidate or perform check, or if she gets a surprise attack, enemies within 30' roll against a DC13 or be panicked for 2d6 rounds in addition to the results of the attack or check. Success means immune for 1 hour.
She's very nice, but I guess the creepy factor makes her scary too
