Since you ID'ed these things, I'll let you alter your action. I'm personally not a fan of punishing brain farts like that. Lord knows I'm prone to them at times.

Happy Thanksgiving if you're here in the US like me, and Happy Thursday if you're anywhere else in the world!

Hope you have a Thanksgiving dinner that couldn't be beat!

Since nobody likes turkey here, We made Cornish Game Hens and had our own Personal Chickens. Was a pretty great time. Happy Thanksgiving!

My wife and I were both ill on Wednesday and so enjoyed a Thanksgiving of Pedialyte and chicken broth.

But after we started feeling a bit better, I roasted some potatoes and brussel sprouts because I hadn't been to the store in days and had to make do with what I had in the pantry/fridge. Pretty solid overall. Full meal to come, most likely tomorrow.

Ooof... that sucks, it is never fun to spend holidays sick. Spent my birthday this year sick with Covid so like totally get that...

I'm staying home from work sick today myself. It's only a cold, but after I got home from my shift yesterday my voice deteriorated fast. It helps that today was supposed to be my Friday, so I've effectively gained a 3-day weekend. Hope I recover quickly, though.


Small LG Kobold Wizard 6 | HP 29/29 | AC 17 | F: +4, R: +7, W: +6| BAB: +3, CMB: -1, CMD: 12, | Init: +3 | Perc: +1 | Speed 35ft |

Hmm, would it be possible to rotate the creature with Shifting Sand? The spell says I can move the sand up to 10 feet in any direction, dragging creatures along, but technically the sand itself isn't changing squares.

I'm imagining some kind of vortex like movement.


Fragments of the First Battle Maps | Old and Broken Battle Maps | Twilight of the Heroic Age Battle Maps |

What’s your vision with it? As far as I know the exact orientation of a creature isn’t really covered in the rules.


Small LG Kobold Wizard 6 | HP 29/29 | AC 17 | F: +4, R: +7, W: +6| BAB: +3, CMB: -1, CMD: 12, | Init: +3 | Perc: +1 | Speed 35ft |

I'm hoping to pull the creature away from Saraon, so he might heal himself or use his spells, while still keeping within Bas's range.

Moving the creature one square left, but keeping the sand in the same spot. It's a 10x10 square, so rotating it would theoretically move a creature a space.

Sorry I wasn't clear earlier!

I appear to have goofed then...Sorry, Sprig! D:

That's all good with me!

A Merry Crystalhue to all who celebrate it, and a great weekend to everyone else! This song...just gets more meaningful to me every year...

Merry christmas!

Merry (belated) Christmas y’all! I’ll get us moving again within the next few days.

May be a slight delay in posting. Stuck at the hotel because of another blizzard.


Medium TN human Swashbuckler(Musketeer) 6 | HP 41/41 | AC 21 | F: +4, R: +10, W: +1| BAB: +6, CMB:7, CMD: 21, | Init: +4 | Perc: +7 | Speed 30ft |

I do so hope everyone had wonderful holidays!

And that the blizzard passes quickly!


Male Half-Elf NG Halcyon Druid 6 | AC 18, T 13, FF 16 | 51/51 hp | Fort +8, Ref +5, Will +10;| Init +2 | Percep +15 | CMD 18

It did! I got back home safely, and got to do a little holiday get-together with my sister and her girlfriend, since they couldn't visit during the actual holiday while there was COVID in the house.

Hi all. I want to apologize for my extended absence. First things first, I fully intend to keep up with the campaign if you’ll still have me. Second, I’ll offer an explanation. (Posting this to all of my currently active campaigns).

I wish I could say that there was one big thing, but instead it was a lot of small to medium things. Physical and mental health problems, almost 20% of my waking hours spent traveling in the last month and a half, some work-related woes, the stress of the holidays, internet outages, writer’s block, etc. In the few times that I had sufficient time and energy to even look at the Paizo boards, I found myself overwhelmed by the high number of new posts and was experiencing terrific guilt and anxiety about having missed so much. I have been composing this message for a couple of days now, trying to provide a semblance of apology.

And now I am trying to catch up in earnest.

Thank you for your patience with me, especially those who reached out here or on Discord. I tried my best to respond as I was able, but I know I missed some of you.


Fragments of the First Battle Maps | Old and Broken Battle Maps | Twilight of the Heroic Age Battle Maps |

No worries! Still very happy to have you along. Small to medium things are always the kicker, especially holiday stress on top of it. Lord knows I've had my periods of the same feelings.

Thanks! I figured I'd get some healing and knowledge checks out to start the new year off right.

I hope everyone is handling illness and cold temperatures well! May your 2023 be gentle.


Small LG Kobold Wizard 6 | HP 29/29 | AC 17 | F: +4, R: +7, W: +6| BAB: +3, CMB: -1, CMD: 12, | Init: +3 | Perc: +1 | Speed 35ft |

I apparently forgot to post that i was going to be gone for the last 10 days, so there's no worries for taking time to relax a bit.

Went to visit my grandmother for the new year, She lives on a farm in Sweden, so i was pretty much unplugged the whole time. Honestly it's healthy to do on occassion.

That sounds absolutely lovely! I was somewhat less unplugged but spent a few days over the holidays in a cabin in rural California to see the giant sequoias. They are utterly massive and inspiring.

I am sorry to hear that Ronan, but we are always happy to have you! Our health, in all forms, is far more important than anything. Please take any time you need to take care of yourself. We'll be here!

Sprig, that sounds awesome and I am just completely jealous!

I was stranded at the Mall of America (I work at a hotel attached to it, so they put me up with a room for free) twice over the holiday season due to the storms I mentioned earlier, and then stuck at home this past Wednesday because of all the ice on the roads! MINNESOTA! :P


Male Samsaran Speaker for the Past (Shaman) 6 | HP: 42/42 | Perception +15 (low-light vision), Sense Motive +6 | Speed 30 ft | AC 22 Touch 13 Flat 20 | CMD 18 | Fort + 5, Reflex +5, Will +12 (+2 vs death effects/negative energy) | Init +2 (Roll x2)| Active: None

The hosts on one of the podcasts I listen to just referenced the Mall of America. It sounds enormous!

It is, but it's a lot emptier than it used to be. I've worked at the JW for 6 years now, and the things that get the most business are probably the restaurants. Even Nickelodeon Universe isn't that big of a draw (and I personally am still miffed they changed it to that from the original Camp Snoopy, Peanuts is a Minnesota icon dammit!).

One might say that they were a bunch of Red (Robber) Barons.

If it's all right, we can probably just position ourselves on the battle map. I don't need line of effect, just line of sight, since the lightning bolts are vertical. So I can be in the back and Bas can be up front.


Fragments of the First Battle Maps | Old and Broken Battle Maps | Twilight of the Heroic Age Battle Maps |

Yep, place yourselves wherever you want, I just bunched them all together fairly willy nilly.


Medium TN human Swashbuckler(Musketeer) 6 | HP 41/41 | AC 21 | F: +4, R: +10, W: +1| BAB: +6, CMB:7, CMD: 21, | Init: +4 | Perc: +7 | Speed 30ft |

Sorry about the delay it has been... A very expensive few days...

Are we at the top of the new round then? I was stranded at the hotel for three whole nights because of the recent snowstorm! I actually went up there ON MY DAYS OFF so I could come in to work safely!


Male Samsaran Speaker for the Past (Shaman) 6 | HP: 42/42 | Perception +15 (low-light vision), Sense Motive +6 | Speed 30 ft | AC 22 Touch 13 Flat 20 | CMD 18 | Fort + 5, Reflex +5, Will +12 (+2 vs death effects/negative energy) | Init +2 (Roll x2)| Active: None

Yes: Bas, Kat, and Saraon are up.

Also, yikes for being stranded! We had a water main break the other day and I realized just how reliant I am on running water for everything.

Hope you're still safe!


Male Half-Elf NG Halcyon Druid 6 | AC 18, T 13, FF 16 | 51/51 hp | Fort +8, Ref +5, Will +10;| Init +2 | Percep +15 | CMD 18

I'm back home safe and sound now, and I actually got some more days off so I can relax and catch up on games like dis!

Does anyone else hate cedar wood? I hate cedar wood... Apparently I'm highly allergic to it's pollin! Like stupidly so.

I've never had a problem with cedar, but I have plenty of other pollen allergies, so I feel you.

Finally was able to post! I don't think Paizo likes me that much... every time I tried to post the gateway timed out!

Yeh, me too. Plus, Mother Nature decided to play an April Fool's joke on us by dumping about 8 or so inches of dense, wet snow on us, causing power outages that threw off my sleep cycle due to my CPAP going offline, we weren't able to get out of our garage because of said outage, so we couldn't shovel the driveway immediately, and when we did try to shovel it it was a real struggle due to how heavy and wet the snow was. I finally limped into work about 3 hours late, and stayed late too. Leaving me tired, cranky and sore when I finally got home. Very funny, Mother Nature. Ha ha. You got me. Happy April Fools. -_-

I feel like this past weekend was a bad joke. I lost count of how many states I heard that had tornadoes.

I'm so use to tornadoes that doesn't really make news to me sadly...

Was this tribe encounter something previously in-game or is this part of Sprig and Bas' mutual backstory? Just want to make sure I'm roleplaying accurately. ;)

I made it up! I thought it might be good to make up a story that happened in our backstory, but feel free to add details we might have "told" you during one of our adventures together!

So my boss got a better job... and now guess who everyone is asking questions to... Me... UHHHA! T_T

And now I have to take overtime, well have to as in the fact I need the money and need to get things done so that we don't fall behind without a manager... I don't like adulting.

Yeah, adulting is kind of the worst.

Hey folks, been crazy busy at a timber sports competition. I’ll try to update as soon as I can, but probably Sunday.
