So that the other players know, I have GMed this scenario, so there will be occasional points where I will not contribute to decisions since I have prior knowledge.

Looks like we are just waiting for Kalderaan to check in. I'll shot him a PM as well.

I’m checked in. Just need to fill out my character sheet online. I’m a Druid 2.

Hello, I wanted to ask if there was still room in this game and if I could join. I have this character, a 1st level wizard, available and ready to run.

GM: As far as I can tell, there is no ruling or errata on this, so I need your opinion. Can a monk wear non-magical handwraps, then attach a potency crystal to them as if they were a weapon, so that his unarmed strikes get the bonus?

If you'll allow that, then Variel will take a potency crystal (from the Swords list) and a holy water (from the general list) as his bonus items. If you don't allow it, then second holy water instead.

Leo will choose a scroll of burning hands and a scroll of comprehend languages to bring from his spells training.

Not as far as I am aware. This would be the item you are looking for for a monk to do what you are attempting. Same cost as your first magical weapon. 35 gold

Handwraps of mighty blows

This item can have runes and talismans attached to it.

Okay so, after finally finalizing my spellbook and prepared spells...

I'm playing this character for the second time due to credits bumping him to 3rd level. The first session was a rough learning experience.

...anywho...

...so I just realized that we have 3 wizards in this party that can share their spellbooks. What was our timing together before setting off on this mission?

If there was time can we have shared? (Leo would have been quite enthusiastic about the concept)

Also, I'd like to have at least put my two scrolls into my spellbook
*I have assurance Arcana so my default will be a 17, which will be enough for a level 1 spell or below
Arcana: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (13) + 12 = 25 ; For my level 2 spell scroll which has a DC of 18.

Leo has Magical Shorthand, so he takes much less time learning spells

This link is for the information on the DCs and costs of learning spells.

Ah yes, if there's time, let's do that. Kang's spell list as follows:

CANTRIPS: detect magic, electric arc, ghost sound, light, mage hand, message, ray of frost, read aura, shield, tanglefoot
1ST: air bubble, color spray, feather fall, grease, magic missile, summon animal

Yup, while you may not have had much time during the meetup, you definitely had several hours during the evening / night since you left in the late hours of the morning the next day. Go ahead with your rolls and spend your gold as there isn't much as this level that will break the scenario in these early stages.

Just make sure they are on your next post.

Thank you GM. Though I know PF1 and Starfinder, PF2 is different enough that it is taking some time to understand the little stuff.

I wish to scribe these spells to my book (this includes the burning hands scroll and comprehend languages scroll I rolled for last post):

2nd @ 6 gp each : comprehend languages
1st @ 2 gp each : floating disk, illusory disguise, color spray, grease, summon animal, burning hands
0th @ 2 gp each : message, produce flame, ghost sound

Again, with Assurance (Arcana) I can choose to get a result of a 17, which passes for all spells level 1 and below.

This will cost 24 gp and 110 minutes. Changing gp now.

I just discovered my animal Companion gets my level for proficiencies. I need to update on my sheet.

I'll be picking up a scroll of burning hands and of magic weapon from Pathfinder Training.

I've updated my profile along with the cantrips I have and I'll post it here below as well. I'll set aside about four hours of time for copying over a few hours because that seems reasonable at least before the mission. Let me know if that is too much.

Wizard Spellbook
1st burning hands, create water, floating disk, illusory disguise, mage armor, true strike
Cantrips detect magic, electric arc, mage hand, message, prestidigitation, produce flame, read aura, shield, sigil, tanglefoot, telekinetic projectile

I'll do my arcana checks here to not confuse the gameplay thread. Assume we have 4 hours.

burning hands, arcana: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16
illusory disguise, arcana: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12 ==> Failed
magic weapon, arcana: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22
true strike, arcana: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8 ==> Critically Failed

Spent 5 gp.

Sorry folks - I was sick last night and slept in, and going to be relaxing today. Probably no post until tomorrow. Bot me as needed.

Hey everyone! I will be running Passing the Torch 1 & 2 as well as Siege of Gallowspire and Fate of the Scoured God over the next 2 days. As such it is incredibly unlikely that I will be able to post. Thanks for your understanding.

All good, thanks for letting us know.

It took me a moment to realize you must be talking about running tables at a con ... I was thinking "Don't you mean you are going to *start* running them? You can't finish games in 2 days!" ;-)

I wish I were at your con, I want to play all of those! Have fun!

I'll be going on vacation from tomorrow until christmas eve. Posting is likely to be very erratic so please bot as needed. Will put up basic instructions before I go off. Thanks!

I am waiting on my next steps as I did a 10=minute action before everyone else.

Should I be updated my next action in game?

Sorry about not posting this weekend. I'm heading out for holiday travel in the wee hours this morning, but I expect to check in at least once a day once I'm in Texas.

Not a problem. :) Thanks for letting us know.

Sorry for the long silence. My holiday itinerary turned out quite packed and I didn't get the chance to post. Catching up now.

My apologies for not posting recently. My holiday trip to visit family left me less time than I expected, and the return trip was a bit stressful. I will get recovered over the weekend, and be back in the saddle on Monday at the latest.

For games I am playing, please bot as needed.

For games I am GMing, please do not attempt to bot me. ;-)

Sorry for the absence. I’m back and will get caught up.

Zhao Kang - If you can fill that gap left by Sasha with a summoned animal, that would buy us some time. You still have your Arcane Bond for that, yeah? Or is that for universalist wizards only? I can't remember.

I'm coming all. Sorry for the 15ft move speed.

Meant to move Sasha but forgot. She’s 2 squares left of Variel. Flanking with Leo.

Got her moved.

Because there's a real chance of Kang dying, just want to check that my rules understanding is correct. Next round, if he fails the stabilisation check, he'll slip to Dying 3. Then, unless he makes a crit success against the poison, he'll take damage from the poison. Before he slips into Dying 4 (i.e. dies), he can spend his Hero Point to stabilise at 0 HP. However, unless he clears the poison, he'll continue to take damage and go back down the Dying track again. Is that right?

Kang does have two vials of life (minor) if there's someone that can feed him. That could slow things down, hopefully buying time to make the fort saves against the poison.

Alright let's break it down since it can be a bit, especially with the extra poison. It looks like you have it mostly correct but it looks like you were taking two poison damages in a single round with the initial and round 1.

Round 1
1. Failed one of the initial poison saves which dropped you to 0 hp and Dying 1 condition.
2.Start of your turn make your Dying stabilization check which passed bringing you from Dying 1 to Wounded 1. Which is where it ends you up now. The next saving throw would be the next round on the centipede's turn. since this is a 1 round duration.

So Round 2 would look like this
1. centipedes turn --> Poison progresses due to your saving throw to Stage 2 which would drop you into Dying 2.
2. At the beginning of your turn would need a Dying Stabilization check.

The Hero point there may help save you a round of the poison as well as those vials of life

In that case, Leo would have yelled at Variel to get Zhao back up.

Yes, I went ahead to roll for the saving throw at the centipedes’ turn at the end of my post, rather than at my next post. Something I learnt from PACG PBP that I should do here is to make explicit what takes place out of my turn, in this case the poison damage.

Yup, good call. helps speed things up for when they happen.

In that case, Leo would have yelled at Variel to get Zhao back up.

Not sure how Variel would get Zhao up ... I'm not a healer ...

I think he was referring to force-feeding him a potion/elixir.

I think you have bigger problems to worry about.

Help is on the way! :D

Ah. Sadly, I don't have one to give him - I already drank the one I was carrying.

Kang stated in message 248 that he had extra on his bandolier for anyone to use. :D

BTW Variel, every time you roll like that, I get awesome rolls.

Keep it up!!! :D ;D

Well, glad I can provide value ... ;-)

The thing is, it isn't just this game. The RNG on this site really hates me. It works well for players I'm GMing for, though.
