Indeed! We'll be relying on you.
perfect. Im looking to kick things off by Monday.
Whenever Barnaby is out ahead scouting, he will be relying on your Message spell, our good Skald.
We can use Sylvan as our response language; since 5 of 6 of us speak it.
Barnaby only has a Speed 20; but @4th he will be riding on Ant-icipation Speed 30 Climb 20. Should be fun!
Speaking of Scouting; I think that I will change his ACs Skill Rank into Stealth....or Survival for Tracking...he gets another once we reach 2nd...

Yes! Page 7 of The Player’s Guide says “Heldren is a small village of 171 people, mostly farmers, herders, and woodcutters.” I read your backstory and I think your character has reason to know Tegan’s Aunt Elin, a farmer, who probably would have introduced Tegan and her mother. Elin mostly grows vegetables but has a small chicken coop for eggs. Tegan and her mother, Efa, stay with her Aunt Elin during holidays and make occasional visits. Efa and Elin are actually identical twins, although only Efa is capable of magic. Efa sells scrolls and her magical abilities, which involves traveling to various towns in Taldor, renting the most affordable sleeping quarters.
That works! I think we were probably first introduced when Ylena went to Aunt Elin to pick up some eggs, and then became closer by talking shop about scrolls and spells. So, not besties, but acquaintances familiar with each other's brand of arcane magic.
I adjusted Barnaby's Traits and Skills. With our GM's permission, I took Trap Finder and shuffled a Rank for Disable Device +8. He even had enough for common thieves' tools!
Thanks Barnaby! My squishy, squishy caster appreciates your sacrifice in looking for traps and stuff. I do have CLW, so I can heal you if anything goes wrong.

This is one reason I decided to grab Message! xD It's a handy little spell.
ClearSpring, sounds good to me!
Five of our party members speak Sylvan?! That's funny. We should RP the moment when they all realize it.
this is the link you use to join the roll20 game which we will use for our combats.
Reign of Winter make sure you tell me which character youre playing in the chat there.
Will we be using the dice roller over there, or the one on the paizo forums?
The one here. That's s just for the 'picture' ie the combat maps

I used my background skills for Handle Animal and Linguistics (because I wanted Sylvan). :)
Understood, GM.
Huh, should I have put my conditionals in my little stat block? 'cause Rimesong has a lot of them...
We'll have to teach Rorgar Sylvan so he's not left out :)
It'll be our secret language! Except, y'know, for any fey we might come across.
I normally gravitate toward Trappers (and Wizards), so the adjustment is perfectly find for me.
I found it funny that 5 of 6 had Sylvan. I like finding the common links in recruitments...lol.
The Player's Guide mentioned a few languages that we should have covered: We do!
I like our group. We cover a lot of bases.
Barnaby--and Ant-icipation are ready to go!
Do you want to build a snowman....
What wild winter wonders will we weather?
It'll be our secret language! Except, y'know, for any fey we might come across.
Yes....because in my games, I'll make your save rolls and you'll make the bad guys you're trying to effect with your action...it's part of the 'how can I make combats go faster in pbp' effort.

Got it.
Fort: +5 (total) vs. fatigue, exhaustion, or ill effects from running, forced marches, starvation, thirst, and hot or cold environments; Ref: N/A; Will: +6 (total) vs. charm, compulsion, and fear by non-elven humanoids; All: +1 vs. evil-aligned arcane spellcasters' spell-like abilities, supernatural abilities, and spells
Is that acceptable, GM?
If we absolutely needed it, I could change my attributes and favored class bonus to get more skills, the traits to make them into class skills, and maybe like variant multi class to rogue (if allowed) to cover for the trapfinding. But honestly, it feels crazy exaggerated if someone else can go for it easier. :) again, if it was an issue with Barnaby, I’m sure I’d be able to modify the pally to serve the party in this manner. I like this group!
Absolutely no problem with being the Trapper. I enjoy it.
Besides, you did elect to take Sylvan! Now, where's that stubborn dwarf...lol.
Hey Dread, I resemble that dwarf remark. :)
No true casters, but a lot of hybrids. :)
Why would you call me Stubborn Barnaby. Is that not the pot calling the kettle black ??
Honestly, I think this group will rock.

Oh contraire
Tegan's a Conjuror...1st Wizard
I think the group will be great.
I think I've picked some good role players with great concepts

We also have Ylena, our witch, who's a full caster.
I have the Cold Weather Outfit, Cleats, and Snow Goggles and I didn't add them to my stat block either :x
Oops, neither did I. Silly me.
I also have a cold weather outfit, but no cleats or goggles.
I will join the club of people who bought a cold-weather outfit but forgot to include it in the stat block.
Barnaby actually expects folks to stare. He enjoys it; if you couldn't tell...lol.
I am planning to play him as an accidentally successful hero!

Lol!
An accidentally successful hero. What a fun trope! Barnaby can have all the attention - Tegan is happy keeping her nose in her spellbook.
I feel like Rimesong is going to end up a face of this group (probably one of a couple), which should be... amusing. He's got some pretty alien ideas about etiquette, and comes from an incredibly reclusive people. That said, he is used to engaging with the weird foibles of the younger peoples.
I think Rimesong will be the face of the party too hehe. Ylena next with +5 Diplo
He's only gonna get better with levels - 1/2 his level bonus to that stuff is pretty good. Not intimidating, though... which is probably fine.
I finally updated/committed to Verminous Hunter.
I like the flavor.

I was wondering why you hadn't gone for it. :P
I don't typically like bugs, but your ant is cute hehe. I especially liked his introductory post, although I don't really want to think about what he was doing in there! XD
I was torn because I can actually see getting plenty of use out of Woodland Stride...lol.
My ACs/Familiars are usually the real stars of the show!
Read Tindertwig and Dirtbag posts...haha!
I started a Google Sheets for the loot we'll find along the way. You should be able to view and edit it with *this link*
My knowledge of Google Sheets is pretty limited so feel free to add formula commands, etc
Huh, I missed the fact we all got an alchemist's fire.
Ya, "each!" :D
I believe throwing an Alch Fire is a Ranged Touch Attack so 1d20+BAB+Dex. But, I'm a little confused about the damage. Does Alch Fire automatically do 1d6+1 splash damage to creatures in a 10-foot square the first round? Or, do they have the opportunity to make a Reflex DC15 like they do in the second round?
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
My reading is that it automatically does 1d6 fire damage to a targeted creature on a direct hit, and an additional 1d6 fire damage the next round unless the creature tries to put it out. That's if you're targeting a single creature with the ranged touch attack.
Alternately, you can throw it as a splash weapon, targeting an intersection of squares, in which case it does 1 damage to all the creatures in the area, with the 1d6 damage coming the next round unless they put it out.
Ahh ok. So you can throw it at an individual or an area.
Alchemist’s Fire
Price 20 gp; Weight 1 lb.
DESCRIPTION
Alchemist’s fire is a mix of several volatile liquids that ignite when exposed to air. You can throw a flask of alchemist’s fire as a splash weapon. Treat this attack as a ranged touch attack with a range increment of 10 feet.
A direct hit deals 1d6 points of fire damage. Every creature within 5 feet of the point where the flask hits takes 1 point of fire damage from the splash. On the round following a direct hit, the target takes an additional 1d6 points of damage. If desired, the target can use a full-round action to attempt to extinguish the flames before taking this additional damage. Extinguishing the flames requires a DC 15 Reflex save. Rolling on the ground provides the target a +2 bonus on the save. Leaping into a large body of water or magically extinguishing the flames automatically smothers the fire.
If you hit the ranged touch. Target takes 1d6. All adjacent take 1pt splash. Remember ranged increment . Additional 1d6 for target next round unless takes full round action to extinguish flames with dc15 ref
That's a fair reading of it too. I was just correlating the splash weapon rules, which indicate targeting an intersection, but I like this way more. Less finicky.
Thank you, Tegan! That was nice of you! I am not good with tracki g the Treasure Sheet...lol.
Thank you Tegan. I linked it in the campaign info section for everyone
Haha, oops! Cold iron, dark iron - I've been playing too much WoW Classic XD World of Warcraft has dark iron dwarves and we have a dwarf in our party. I'm mixing up my lore! D:
;) thought I could still have some fun with it
