I'm down for running as a four but picking up people is fine too. Super committal on that I know, sry...
On that note though I had a buddy that seemed keen but he's new both to PF (has run in 3.5) and PbP. He's living in a new town so he certainly has the time...

For the record here's the loot we've recovered thus far (not counting the unopened "magical" chest?)

MWK short sword with a polished beryl pommel stone. (360gp)
Carved wooden pendant of a dragon wrapped around a Lotus flower.
MWK leather armour. (160gp)
MWK dagger. (351gp)
Gold ring (120gp)
7,500cp
1,500sp
10 small leather sacks containing 100gp each, and another 2 contain an assortment of gems (250gp each).
Cheers for the tally yo!
Yup average+1 hp is fine.
@Jon: You don't actually have to pick your finesse training weapon until level 3.
@Kellan: Feel free to reach out to your buddy if you want. We don't really need any particular class, though, I would probably advice against another melee PC, since we've already got 3 and you plan on using summons.
On the treasure note, with Jon dipping into rogue, you can now open the last chest. Inside you find (once identified):
- Three potions of cure light wounds
- A potion of lesser restoration
- A potion of invisibility
- A potion of barkskin +3
- A potion o fcure serious wounds
- An elixir of swimming
- A wand of mage armor with 11 charges
- A small jade coffer worth 300 gp. Inside of the coffer, resting on a tiny velvet cushion, is a light brown gemstone. This is an earth elemental gem, identified as such by a strip of paper tucked under the cushion.
Ukufa would like to take the MW Dagger - to be wielded as an instrument of Penkis' vengeance.
Apart from that little else of interest from her.
@kellan if your friend is keen to play a melee i could happily swap to an arcane user.
I foolishly started my level up post on the board so it got eaten, will have it up for later on..
As for the loot, Bhru will take...
1x Potion of CLW
1x Potion of Barkskin
Can divvy up golds once people take their desired loots?
Buddies gonna do a peruse of PbP stuff (I sent him the same stuff u sent me Bhru) after work today, I'll talk to him about class when we cross that bridge hopefully this evening. He's playing a wild card Sorc in my 5e game so I'm not sure where he'll land if he joins.
Kellan will take the swimming elixir if there are no objections. Maybe the lesser restoration too? Mage Armour is tempting but Jon can maybe give me a boop before he pokes things, he can hold that. My character is minorly cursed on quickly breaking stuff out/stowing things so...
LEVEL UP
Siegebreaker 2
This ability replaces bravery.
This ability replaces the feat gained at 2nd level.
HP - +10
Skills - +1 to Knowledge Dungeoneering
BAB - +1
Fort Save - +1
So homeboy is looking at an arcanist, I'll get him dotted in next couple days methinks. I'm assuming that'll cover the arcane...
Great, he can start at level 2 and start with 1000gp of gear.
Sure,
Probably will take me a little bit of time to put together a concept for a magic user but i'll get to work on it. In the mean time i'll continue to play Bhru :)
Greetings and welcome aboard.
Melee's getting a bit congested, but I'm sure we could squeeze another PC in there. Cavaliers are neat, but if you go that way, I would recommend picking an archetype that doesn't have a mount, or play as a small race. There's a fair bit of dungeon crawling the this campaign where a large mount isn't going to be practical and there are parts where you just wont be able to use a mount at all. If you have any questions let me know.
@Bhru: You don't have to change PCs, if you don't want. There's no real glaring holes in the party make-up that need to be filled and a PC that the shoves enemies around and runs over them, doesn't have to worry about congested melee. In any case, if fine either way.
It ain't arcane but I could maybe revamp a tad towards more of a spell support/control Oracle if you're down @GMF? I haven't even cast the summons stuff yet so would only require a spells known revision and a change of revelation. (I honestly misread summons length way back when and should have leaned a bit differently for the low levels anyways... won't really alter the character flavour).
Magus is also an option for a melee bent arcane caster, or my personal fave Skald...
I am okay with selling everything laid out in jons post in gameplay.
I'm away until tuesday, so just bot if needed. Will have access from my phone.
@GMF I've made up a preliminary character sheet for a halfling cavalier. Would you mind taking a look and advising of any red flags or the like? Happy to make adjustments where needed!

Nothing game breaking jumped out a me, but I did notice a couple of things.
- Looks like you have too many skill ranks. You should have 6 total at level 2.
- You need to pick a teamwork feat for your tactician ability. (If you don't want to bother with tactician, I would recommend checking out the Gendarme archetype, which stacks with beastrider).
- You might want to invest in a masterwork weapon, it costs an extra 300gp, but gives you +1 to hit.
- Your +1 to AC for being a halfling is a size bonus not a race bonus (bonuses of the same type don't stack, so its important to keep that all clear).
- Halflings have the variant racial trait Outrider (Some halflings specialize in mounted combat. Halflings with this racial trait gain a +2 bonus on Handle Animal and Ride checks. This racial trait replaces sure-footed.) You may want to pick that up.
- Any reason to go with a light shield instead of a heavy one?
- Lances still count as a 2 handed weapon when mounted, so you still add 1.5x your strength to the damage.
- Your wolf's BAB should also be +2
Re: Spending. Might be worth pooling our resources for a Wand of CLW (750gp), also handy for damaging undead as well as keeping us in the fight.
Won't cripple the collective saving effort too much 187gp, 5sp per head for the current 4 members of the party.
Boards ate my post, will pitch in for the wand of CLW.
I haven't had a chance to look at shopping, bhru is pretty satisfied with his kit for now.. need to save for some enchanting :)
Can pitch too!
Cool - so that's us all pitching in for a Wand o' CLW. Guess Kellan or Jon to carry it?
Pretty good with Ukufa's gear at present also. MW armour and 2 off MW Daggers so she's good to slice and dice in the name of the Ruby Sorceress ;)

Kellan can you poke your buddy. Kinda mostly waiting on them.
Yup will do... Did you want a post in Gameplay or waiting on the complete Alias?
More just confirmation that they are ready and good to go.
I'll post something in game play to introduce them, but I definitely want them onboard before we move to the taxidermist's hall.
Excellent. Posting a quick tie in gameplay post and then the party should be ready to carry on with the adventuring.
Apologies folks - work this week (bunch of offshore call-offs, meetings about aforementioned call-offs) and conducting my teams appraisals has stymied me and emptied the energy reserves.
Hope to get a post up tonight/Saturday morn.
Cheers
That scroll feat adds up... I don't wanna meta game too much but I'm gettin some DM hint vibes; maybe we buy the biggest fish we can find at the wharf and ask to get it stuffed/mounted, as half the muscley plus a face group, at the taxidermist hall? Or something weird like mine or Jons dead pet octopus to stall for time while the Stealth group snoops...? We can always bum rush the joint at midnight later? What's the worst that could happen, a Rancor pit?
They know who we are. So may as well just go. I think let's go now in the daytime and check it out?
Need to get things rolling again and jt doesn't seem like anyone has a strong preference for a plan.
I'm OK with just taking a taxidermy job into the guildhall and occupy their time while the perceptive folk look around.
Sounds good to me...
To one and all I say: Lang May Yer Lum Reek!
Have a great Hogmanay when it comes and even better 2022.
Shall we pour a potion down your gullet Bhru? Or I can cast CLW...
Bhrus stable. He cannot speak for your actions. Do whatever you please.
Too meta?
Nah just go for it
I think you're up...
Afternoon gang - just a heads up that Storm Corrie knocked out power and comms lines here in the bonnie North East o' Scotland.
As such posting will be limited to when I'm in work and not busy (which is rarer than hen's teeth). Please bot me as required til I'm back up and running (likely mid-weekish).
Just a heads up all - had a couple of rush offshore jobs land of my lap this morning, so might be mid-week before I'm clear enough to contribute. Please bot me as/when/if necessary.
Just a heads up gang I'm positively slammed at work - had a couple of additional rush jobs crop up today in an already busy week and need to do my team's performance review by Friday... also have our works Xmas do on Friday (at the 3rd tilt - covid allowing).
Posting might be pretty spotty until the weekend so please bot Ukufa as necessary.
Sorry folks - work is a grind at the moment, loads on and not much post shift energy for anything else.
Hoping this weekend will see the load lighten. Meantime please bot Ukufa as necessary.
So... work's not relenting and mentally I've not got enough to give to all my games at the moment. I need to cut back and reluctantly I'm going to have to step away from this one.
@GMF: Chief, thanks for the opportunity and apologies this old sparring partner of yours didn't have the energy to see this game to the end. Always a privilege being part of your games, and I hope, down the line we do so again.
@All: Thanks for the creative collaboration gang. If I'm lucky I'll enjoy collaborating with you all again in the future.
Cheers
BD/Gary

Sorry to hear that, but no worries. If things ever quiet down for you, and you're looking for another game, you'll always have a seat at this table.
Take care.
Cheers hombre, may well take you up on that.

Thanks for playing! Hope things settle for you and you can enjoy the games at some point again!
