Dots with colons... nice touch.
Dotted in. Meet your frontline.
GM - What is our target start date?
I know I'm excited to start!
Maybe Friday, 10/18/19 would be a good deadline for everyone to check in and have semi-finalized characters? I know some folks were busy, so I’ve been taking it slow. In the meantime, people can write preemptory background posts, if you want to flex your background muscles (like when Veltariel and I did our background stuff before Shattered Star, for example).
I’ll put up an introductory gameplay post by 10/19 or 10/20 and we can start the timeline (I have to set something up with Roll20 if I can).I have my loot sheet, or you guys can organize one yourselves. Let me know and I’ll put a link to it on top of the page.
Note: I have added a map of Korvosa, and a spreadsheet containing important places, lodging prices, and current magic items. The base value is 12,800, so there's a 75% chance of finding magic items less than that value. If your item is not available, you can try to look again in a week.
Note that you can always find someone to sell you a "magic item upgrade dust" to upgrade masterwork items to +1, which takes 0 days, and costs the same as upgrading an item.
All non-magic items from Paizo books are available (other than tech items and other extremely exotic things). Essentially, this means all "gear" can be obtained. This includes alchemical items, no need to roll.
Is anybody else having issues connecting to discord? I hope that our backup connection service doesn't need a backup of its own.
No issues that I've noticed.
Now mine is. On Roll20 with a question.
Perfect, now I have a small army of mooks that are even less dangerous than the common goblin.
Obviously flanking is always appreciated, but let's see if I can convince them to aid my attacks and AC instead of flailing at their captor...
Posting this to all my games, so apologies if you see it in multiple places :).
Sorry for the delay everyone, my wife was in a pretty serious car accident Tues. She is luckily ok, but have been dealing with the aftermath of that the last couple days and have just been a bit mentally exhausted. Things are mostly cleared up now and I should be good to get back into things again.
If Vera stops her sleep spell mid-cast, can she keep the spell slot or is it gone?
Woohoo, level up!

Can anyone else use the wands of magic missile and acid splash? Seems like I might need it for this extended adventuring day.
As a heads up to all of my games, I will be completely unavailable from the 15th-20th. I will be in an area without cell service or internet and as such will be completely dark. Please DMPC me as needed to keep the game moving.
Have fun, Marcus/CampinCarl!
I'm going to do some rollplay instead of roleplay here.
Vera does her daily harrow reading in the morning, and gets a bit more arcane power.
Vera detects magic and starts identifying magical items, with help from Zellara, prioritizing non-consumable items first.
And lets everyone know what she learns.
Gaedren had a +1 dagger, a +1 padded armor, and had a glass tube with an oil of keen edge. There's still two potions that giggles had on him. You can easily detect they're cure light potions.
I updated the treasure sheet with values for everything.
Archived the old loot, added a new one with what we have gotten thus far, put items people claimed and their gold total on their individual sheets.
Tossing out a reminder to all my games. I will be off to Disney World next week with my family and the extended family starting Saturday morning through the following Saturday night. As such my posting will be limited to non-existent. Please bot me as necessary. If you need something you can try pinging me on Discord for a quick response but I can't guarantee how quickly I will be able to reply.
I will try and check in if I can in the morning or at night but not sure how that will go.
Dropping a note in all my games, I am back from my week long vacation. Hope everyone who celebrated had a good Thanksgiving. Going to be working on catching up on things but I got sick over the weekend so moving a bit slower than normal. In any case, I will get caught up ASAP.
I will be traveling to PAX Unplugged tomorrow and will be generally unavailable through Sunday. I hope to catch back up on the games by Monday at the latest.
Please GMPC me as needed.
Hope everyone had a good New Year! Just dropping a note that I am back to a normal schedule again so should be able to post more regularly now.
Oh also remember that if overrun succeeds by 5 or more they are also knocked prone. I will try to remember to include that in future posts.
Yep, I checked it. Thanks for the reminder, it was only by 4 though, for these dudes.
Also since I will be absolutely spamming the crap out of both bull rush and overrun on this character, I've hyperlinked both of those maneuvers in Marcus's header so they can be referenced more easily.
Looks like our cut of the loot is 808 gold, 5 silver, 4 copper.
Krovax will pay back Vera her 200, and Magda 200 before he departs. He still owes Magda 632 gold. He and Vera are even.
Marcus Level 3
hp: 8 (rolled) +2 (con) +1 (fc) = +11 hp
BaB: +1
Saves: +1 Reflex/Will
Class Features: Armor Training
Feat: TBD
Skill Ranks: 2 (class) +1 (int) +1 (human) +2 (background) = +6 skill points
In addition, a fighter can also move at his normal speed while wearing medium armor. At 7th level, a fighter can move at his normal speed while wearing heavy armor.
I could use some help on feat selection. Things I'm considering:
Spiked Destroyer
Bulette Charge Style (leading to Bulette Leap (kind of a dead feat for Marcus) and Bulette Rampage (very powerful))
Combat Reflexes (Marcus will eventually take the "Greater" maneuver feats and be forcing enemies to provoke AoO's)
Merciless Rush didn't seem bad but it's a Rovagug worshiper feat so I'd rather not bend over backwards trying to force that to make sense.
I owe money to the others for my full plate, don't I? I can't remember who exactly ended up loaning me money and how much we did.
Bullete rampage would actually be disgusting.
Bull rush for 2 + str + magical enhancement bonus
Overrun for 1d8 + 2 + (str * 2.5) + (armor bonus/2) + magical enhancement bonus
And I can keep hitting people as long as I keep making the checks.
And now as my fourth post in a row:
GM, I know we were talking that at some point we would be altering our point buy from 15 to 20, can you remind me when we were thinking of doing that?
After the first book is complete.
As a heads up to all of my games: I am traveling from Friday-Monday and will likely be unable to post very much, please DMPC me as needed. My posting will return to normal on Tuesday.
Alright held the dagger for now until we can ID it. Went ahead and sold off the loot and split the gold.
Here are the shares with items that were claimed. Moved said items to your sheets in the loot.
Kali: 0 GP (Mithril Chain Shirt and +1 Arrows)
Magda: 729.97 GP
Krovax: 729.97 GP
Shi: 664.97 GP (Tanglefoot Bags and a Thunderstone)
Vera: 729.97 GP
Marcus: 379.97 GP (+3 STR Comp. Longbow)
Party: 240.66 GP
Now people can purchase if the need, probably could have been done last night. The Party share is currently up to 1285 GP. So at a minimum I think we should pick up a CLW Wand which would leave us at 535 GP if anyone has ideas for anything else we may need. To note, we also have 7 CLW potions in the group share.
I owe people money for my earlier full plate purchase, no?
Vera loaned you 200, and Krovax loaned you 125.
You guys should track your loans on a separate sheet in the loot thing.
I’m tracking it in my alias. I posted what I had already paid back to my two investors earlier.
Marcus, give my 125 you owe me to Magda. I’ll toss another 7 her way and now owe her an even 500.
Alright, Marcus will pay off both of those and that will leave him with about 65 gold.
Arcanist 3
+4 HP
+1 Fort/Ref
Feat: Extra Arcanist Exploit
Exploits: Aspect of Innocence, Charmer
Spells: Liberating Command, Vanish

The enemy sways your mind with a spell, forcing you to-
Marcus frowns harder.
