Sorry for the long delay! I was absolutely mired in marking papers and had to travel up to Belfast for a con. I'll get a post up tomorrow and get us moving again.

Question: Vyr has the aasimar alt trait that lets him learn 2 languages when he puts a point into linguistics. Haven't used it yet, but was going to use it at this level up to take celestial and whatever they speak in the Boneyard, as if he picked it up while we were there, but I can't figure out what language it would be. Any ideas?

Undead speak necril. In 2e, creatures in the Boneyard speak Requian, but I don't think that existed in 1e.

Just so I'm clear on the narrative, we're going into the tomb b/c we think it will get us through the fog curtain around the town, so we can find the cultists who did this.
In leveling up, I also realized how many parts of my class I've not used, most importantly my 5th lvl ability to apply special properties to my blade. /facepalm.
In that vein, also a reminder to all that my campaign trait, Pessimist allows for: "Your frustrating pessimism can spur friends to succeed just to spite you; once per day as a free action, you can force an ally within 30 feet to reroll a saving throw she just failed, using the better of the two results." So feel free to use that if you remember. Clearly you shouldn't rely on me to remember I have it!
That's right. Narratively, you think the only way out of this town that doesn't go through the poison gas is to go through the secret tunnels the cultists know about. You have reason to believe it leads to a Sarenite temple occupied by the cult.
I'll try to help you remember about those abilities!

Sorry I have been posting sparsely.
I just submitted and NIH grant and a few other smaller grants so my time has been really monopolized by writing.
Happy to have it off my plate going into the holidays!
Nice, Robyn. Congrats and good luck!

So I'm guessing we don't have a way to deal with this curse and we'll just have to hope to find a wand, potion or cleric who can help us.

sounds that way. I'm not good at remembering campaign details. Is there anyone we have already met who was a caster or who we think might be able to help?

The only dude we've met since coming back that wasn't a spirit or ghost was that ranger, so that seems unlikely. I think we just get through this tomb and see what we can do on the far side.
You're stuck with it until you can get remove curse cast on it. Sorry for the delay. I'll get a post up tomorrow.

Incense for our arcane casters
Sell the candle as the DC vs. the effect is garbage (if we ever get to sell anything - maybe in book 3?)
That ioun stone seems handy though for not worrying about watches and getting all the casters full nights rest.
Sorry about the inability to sell stuff. These first two books are really meant to be full-on survival horror. I promise I won't leave you walking around with all this junk!

Didn't mean that to come off as a critique. It totally makes sense in the narrative.
I've given you a glimpse of the main chamber, but please don't move in yet. That's a concession to PBP. You might discover something interesting when you're ready to open that door...

Just some loot reminders:
Annalise has a lesser prayer bead which once per day can cast bless and either cure serious wounds, remove blindness/deafness, or remove disease.
Also we have a wand of goodberry w 24 charges which can provide some healing.
Also looks like we looted deathwatch eyes and a brooch of shielding.
Googles that let you "Using the powers of necromancy, you can determine the condition of creatures near death within the spell's range. You instantly know whether each creature within the area is dead, fragile (alive and wounded, with 3 or fewer hit points left), fighting off death (alive with 4 or more hit points), healthy, undead, or neither alive nor dead (such as a construct). Deathwatch sees through any spell or ability that allows creatures to feign death."
Brooch: This appears to be a piece of silver or gold jewelry used to fasten a cloak or cape. In addition to this mundane task, it can absorb magic missiles of the sort generated by the spell or spell-like ability. A brooch can absorb up to 101 points of damage from magic missiles before it melts and becomes useless.
Thanks, Brian. I've added them to the list.

It looks like we've got a variety of potions and stuff too? I appreciate you giving that to us even though we didn't say we looted all the bodies :)

just a heads up that I'm going to be afk tomorrow through the 30th.
Feel free to bot me. I'll send my macro that makes it look like I'm rolling a d20 but actually rolling a d5 with 16-20 as the options for anyone how is going to control him ;-)
Just pinging you guys. We're waiting on actions from Willard and Annalise and Alex is out of the box for a week. Should we pause the campaign?

I of course want to hear what folks are going to be getting at 7th level.
I picked up Prot from Evil, but let me know if one of you already has that and i can make a different choice. Also will be getting displacement and force punch. Still debating on feat. One thing I get to do now is reshape my ectoplasmic blade, so considering taking an exotic weapon proficiency and reshaping it to that, but need to review as my feat knowledge has deteriorated over time.

Nice!
I of course got home yesterday and now have all of my in-laws in town through tuesday, so I'll be checking in but might miss something if Brian doesn't text me a nudge :-)
All I get is a feat at 7, and I'll be taking the next in the mantis style chain which gives me a +2 to unarmed attacks when using stunning fist.
Let me know when you guys are ready to start the next level and I'll get the post up! We're close to finishing Book 2. I know this cathedral has been a bit of a grind, but there are some cool story elements around the corner!

I've got to get Olive on a plane to CA today, and then I should be able to get this updated. Sorry for the delay.
Yeah, you should get the other +2 at this level. Augury and Contact Other Plane should be fun in this campaign, especially since you've already been journeying on two different ones!

I'm all set outside of trying to reremember how to lvl up HP. Along with your con modifier and half your hit die, do you also get to choose between an extra HP or Skill point? I have some vague recollection of that.
