GM PDK The Rasping Rebirth (Tier 12-15) (Inactive)

Game Master Purple Dragon Knight

Fandral had to drop this game; I will post in Flaxseed for a replacement. I won't start until we find one. If you know someone, go ahead and extend the invitation. First come first served basis...

I am curious about why not? Five players is more than enough.

5 players makes it tougher. You don't get any adjustment in difficulty but have 1 fewer PC.

Yes, obviously, it makes things far more interesting.

I'm perfectly fine running it now with 5 players. Let's put it to a vote shall we?

I'd say give it until Monday to find a 6th if no one bites run with 5. My posting is sporadic on weekends anyway and this one is going to be busier than usual.

I am OK with that idea.

I'm fine either way. I'm just ready to kick some demons in the nards.

I'll move this ahead at some point tonight. I'm waiting to hear back from a player who has several seekers, although they may all be 16th level and up... if you know fellow players with high level PCs, feel free to give them a nudge this way.

Need a 12? I’m available.

Hi Tothek!

Please insert your PFS info in the Recruitment thread. And head over to Gameplay... I'll give you a few hours to catch up with the thread before adding to it.

Can we assume the group buff spells extended to Tothek?

I’m otherwise caught up on the reading.

While I’m familiar with the Abyss and demons, Tothek is not incredibly studious. He will ask the group if cold iron arrows are the best choice, and if these demons are immune to lightning.

Anyone have the price handy on a scroll of stone to flesh?

@Favian - Tothek would benefit from a greater magic weapon spell, if you can spare it.

1650 gp (6*11*25)

Casting false life: 1d10 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 15

I have a spare golembane scarab. Would someone more front-line like to use it, or at least carry it around just in case?

I'm good. I have a hammer for every occasion.

I might be one of the few folks without a neck slot item.

But no way I'm going to be on the front line if I can help it! =)

Golembane scarabs appear to work on 'weapons' and to me that doesn't necessarily mean 'melee weapons', so what's this talk of the front line for? :P

PS: it works against 'golems' though, so not all constructs I'm afraid...

Um... what sort of weapons would it mean then?

Never seen someone take that stand before.

But ya, the golem specificity has always been a sticky point.

I'm guessing he means ranged weapons, so bows and the like. Thrag carries three versions of his primary weapon, one each of cold iron, silver, and adamantine. He's wearing a Swarmbane clasp for full damage, if it comes up.

If it works for a bow, I’ll keep it myself.

I just punch things in the face. You should try it some time, it's pretty fun!

@PDK - would a lightning bolt incinerate a dead body?

It appears your character does not know the answer to that. :)

seems unlikely... though a good way to remove their shoes.

Can we gather enough wood for a fire?

If you go back on the trail about 20 min walk there was a tree with putrefied looking berries that could potentially yield enough wood. Make a survival check.

Survival w/abyss penalty: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19

Tothek will drink an antitoxin before touching the tree.

Survival 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

Rand you remember the old crusader telling you not to touch anything in the Worldwound.

[dice=Survival w/abyss penalty]1d20+3

By the way the Abyss penalty did not apply yet, as you haven't crossed the portal yet.

@-Fabian “You get the sense by other he means lesser.”

That came through loud and clear, lol.

[Fair enough.

Seeing that there's been no posts by some of you in the last day or two I'm going to assume you're all ready to move through the portal and move things along in a few hours. Are we good to go?

Yes, Lilly is ready to enter the Abyss.

Yes, I am fine with moving ahead.

Ready

Ready.

Lilly... can you confirm who you cast Life bubble on and durations?

Teriq can cast it as well, so can cover a few folks if needed.

I cast one each on everyone the day before we came here. I lasts 26 hours per cast so everyone is covered.

I’d prefer to not march in fireball formation. We’ll be stepping on each other’s heels.

How do people feel about spreading out a bit more?

I assume it's representative, and not exactly how far apart everyone is, but I could be wrong.

Is this a winged beetle?

You can't tell based on Slide 5 picture.

@Teriq - I would be happy to cast Mage armor on you, it would last 9 hours that way.

Oh hey... my token gained bad ass fiery wings! =)

Tothek, I'm fine for now... though appreciate the offer. =)

Now I have 8-bit nintendo-type music playing in my head.

Does this make Koth'Vaul the 'princess', and the Rasping Rifts the 'castle'? =)

I don't know, but Slide 5 has been updated with the creepy dude that's now watching Lilly... LOL

That big crescent on the front of the beetle, with a few kinks, could be a Wario mustache...
