I was mostly going for disrupting the ritual by shooting her, on the guess she's the primary caster.
@Dadna, the GM established back before you came on board (here) that we cannot threaten simultaneously at reach and adjacent by using a reach weapon and a gauntlet (nor a Boulder Helmet, nor Armor Spikes, etc.).
Good to know! I'll chalk this up to me having the intelligence score of a goldfish in forgetting that.
The crystal is 30 or so feet up in the air and it's person sized.
So, yeah, gonna need a bigger bag of holding...
It has been five minutes since most of you cast protection from evil.
Shaking off a stomach bug. Catching up now.
The tiefling steps back and casts another spell and the area in front of here is filled with a nauseating cloud bank.
Did my readied attack I prepared here go off and hit her? It's the second roll from the bottom, a readied attack that was supposed to go off if she cast a spell.
Waiting on Ardriel to post.
Dadna could you move your token where you wanted? I don't want to assume as a double move puts you behind and to the right of Ian and in the cloud so I would need a save.
Can I use the roll that I already made? It was for this round.
Fort: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (11) + 13 = 24
Otherwise:
Either is good. I just didn't want to be responsible for moving you somewhere you didn't want to be.
Out of curiosity where does everyone live if you are ok with saying.
Charlotte, NC here.
Boston area.
Northeast of Columbus Ohio, about an hour.
Not a problem. And Maryland.
Am I the only one west of the Mississippi? Interesting.
Am I the only one west of the Mississippi? Interesting.
No, if you continue going west you'll get to Ohio....
Northeast of Columbus Ohio, about an hour.
You are not near Mid Ohio in Lexington are you?
I'm heading up to Pittsburgh in the next couple of weeks.
hmmm not in Lexington, I'm in Mt Vernon, 22 miles south east of Lexington. But that still 150 miles from Pittsburgh...
Yeah too far. I was more thinking of the races at mid ohio. I know where that is, not that I've been there.
Mid Ohio racing, nice. Usually when folks talk about racing in Ohio it's National Trail Raceway, which is drag racing. I prefer lemans type tracks over oval or drag racing. Never got into nascar
I used to go to Nelsons Ledges when I was a kid and they had the 24hr race there and the SCCA went there. I was about 2 hours from where I grew up. I saw Paul Newman race there.
I've been to the 24hr race in Daytona as well as a couple of July nascar races when IMSA raced there the night before. Saw IMSA in tampa and I've been to Sebring a few times. So you could say I'm a sports car racing fan as well. I'm watching last weekends Sebring race and have about 7 hours to go.
Pretty cool seeing Paul Newman race. My best friend growing up was a huge sports car racing fan, so I followed it more back then. I remember watching the le Man's when Ford won it with the GT 40's. It's all been downhill for me since then :)
Not that I wouldn't love to do the High Performance Course offered first on May 14,
I would prefer not to bot Ardriel. Would someone else care to do it?
Sorry, I'm here. Work's been rough this week.
I'll be moving into the fog to try and short sword her shortly. EDIT: I apparently have to double move to get to the edge of the fog.
Also, I live in Pittsburgh.
Glad to hear we didn't lose you.
I grew up near Canonsburg and am heading up to visit my mother soon.
Sorry about the delay folks, I saw the posts yesterday and put the wrong name down to double check games....
I Ian wanted to go to the alcove on the eastern side can he hug that corner and not go in the cloud?
I am heading out of town tomorrow March 28 and the plan is to be back on Monday April 1st. I will be able to read posts but don't expect me to post anything that requires formatting as I only have my phone.
Travel safe!
Back from my trip. May take a day or two or five to get backing in the swing of things. Laundry laundry laundry. Plus my son gets married on friday and saturday.
Congratulations to you and your son!
Thank you.
My trip reminded my why I left PA. Cold and rainy! The start of the trip back yesterday was bad. A lot of rain and wind. Just spoke to my mother and she said the creek behind where she lives was coming up.
We did have fun at the National Aviary and the Carnegie Museum of Natural History. Even Jonathan seemed to enjoy walking around looking at the people.
Congratulations!
Glad to hear you back safe, and contrats to your son!
I actually just got back from a 3 day trip to PA today. Rained the entire time. We made the best out of it (was in a nice house in the forest), but cold and rainy about summed it up.
Yeah, the past few days have been annoyingly rainy. Makes me glad I just got that new roof a couple weeks ago.
Lvl 9!!!!
HP: +9
BaB: +1
Saves: +1 Ref
Divine Bond: +1 use per day
Mercy: Restorative: The target heals 1d4 points of ability damage from a single ability score of the paladin’s choosing. The paladin must have the enfeebled mercy before selecting this mercy.
Feat: Selective Channel
Skills: +1 Diplomacy, Heal, K-Planes

Feat: Improved Critical (Kukri)
Skills: +2 to Acrobatics, +1 to Disable Device, Know (Arcana), Know (Engineering), Know (History), Know (Religion), Perception, Stealth, Use Magic Device
Spells: Preparing an additional Protection from Evil
I see that Enos has 2 points of Cha damage. Dadna will use her last charge of LoH with restorative to heal points of Cha damage. So he is now good to go.
Then with the day available to us, can I safely assume that we rest enough to get our resources back before we go back in?
For the next day, spells prepared will be:
SLAs
* 1x Corruption Resistance Against Evil
* 1x Protection from Evil
Paladin Spells
Lvl 1: 1x Bless, 1x Endure Elements, Protection from Evil
Lvl 2: 2x Veil of Heaven
Endure Elements lasts 24 hours. Veil of Heaven 6 hours. With 2x prepared, that is 12 hours...enough to pretty much be the adventuring day.
HP: +11
BaB: +1
Saves: +1 Ref
Divine Bond: +1 use per day
Mercy: Exhausted
Feat: @GM, is Deific Obedience allowed? Will take that if it is, or Step Up if it is not
Skills: +1 Sense Motive, Perception
Spells: +1 Lvl 1 spell
Thanks, Dadna.
I meant to ask about that - I did not know if the damage would continue after we left the citadel or if it was only in effect while we were in that location.
Fortunately, I'm the one in the party that cares the least about charisma because my abilities aren't dependent on it, so I wasn't overly concerned yet.
Never mind about Deific Obedience, I will go with Step Up. I think it has a lot of use in this campaign given demons' SLAs (like 5' step back and teleport).
Just so everyone knows I am kinda torn on Deific Obedience. Two of you can't take it. That said it's effects are kinda minor at the levels they kick in: a small bonus, a few spells, an effect of some kind and a summon. The obediences might be difficult to do at some times as well.
I believe I've got Ian up to snuff, I was considering Improved Critical but decided to go with Cornugon smash, I'm hoping it synergizes well with Iomedae's Inspiring Sword.
Ian Level 9:
+9 HP
+1 BAB,
+ 1 Ref
+ 1 use to divine bond
Grace: Iomedae's Inspiring Sword: Optional Replacement: A paladin of at least 9th level who worships Iomedae can replace a mercy with the following advanced benefit, even if she doesn’t meet the benefit’s prerequisites. Advanced Benefit: As a standard action or at the end of a charge, you can make an attack against a foe with a longsword. If you succeed, you grant all allies who can see your attack a +2 sacred bonus on attack rolls, saving throws, and skill checks for 1 minute.
Feat: Cornugon Smash (Combat)
4 skills: + 1 to Diplomacy, Intimidation, Linguistics, Lore (worldwound)
Sorry for the silence, work got real busy. Fortunately, my boss managed to convince his boss we need to hire another person, so that will help...in about 6 months to a year, give or take.
I'll work on leveling up, but I'll go get a gameplay post in now.
Ardriel: AC 23, no rings, no cloak, the only one who can use the scrolls
Dadna: AC 24, no ring, cloak of resistance +1
Enos: AC 21, no ring, cloak of elven kind
Ian: AC 27, no ring, cloak of resistance +1
Leothar: AC 22, ring of protection +1, no cloak
-------------
What would I do? Given that Leothar is a main tank, I'd give him the ring of protection +1 (giving him AC 23) and then giving his ring of protection +1 to Enos (giving him AC 22). It puts most of us in about the same boat when it comes to AC, with only Ian being an outlier. But that's just my suggestion.
That leaves the Cloak of Resistance, the Ring of Forcefangs, and the scrolls. The scrolls, of course, go to Ardriel, as I don't think anyone else can use them. The ring of forcefangs? It doesn't really fit Dadna's vibe, so I'll pass on it. And that leaves the Cloak of Resistance +2. I suppose roll off on it for anyone who wants it? Dadna already has a cloak of resistance +1 and I'm pretty comfortable with her saves. So she will pass on it.
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
Thank you for the list Dadna I'd looked at folks pages but didn't make a list. Well done.
I don't want to mess with the ring so someone else can have it, Ian also has a cloak of resistance, so he will pass on it also.
I have a cloak. Leothar has been most targeted by magic missile, maybe he should take the ring.
I'd give Enos the Ring of Protection +2 (he is in melee with far fewer HP than Leothar), give Ardriel the Cloak of Resistance +2 (Leothar has dwarf bonuses vs spells/SLAs), and ask that Leothar get the Ring of Forcefangs. Not only is it a useful defense, but once charged up it gives him a ranged option, which he otherwise lacks.
It should also be useful against Spiritual Weapon, Clenched Fist, Battering Blast, and a number of other spells.
I'm good with that...
