A Tiny Part Of The Dimension Wars (Interdimensional Spy Follies

Game Master GM Hansj

That is a really good idea, Panic! It absolutely makes sense. Well played!

The drone seem like a nice addition.

Ok, sorry about that. Now I'm here.

It's meant to be an array of security bots for the home. I felt the weapons I had put on it made it too much a military walking tank, So I have tweaked them to more civilian, and limited as it has only 16 power charges.

It now has a stun gun [Subduing subjects in a non-deathly way], a Laser cutting tool, for cutting traps and such, and a sonic gun for door and wall knocker-down-ing.

In this way it's of use but not meant to take the place of PCs in a fight

Ok, sorry about that. Now I'm here.

Welcome! :D

Apologies but I am beat. Been working 12 hour days for a few weeks.
I will post tomorrow.

Makes me tired just reading about it.

I'll just add a few more tid-bits tonight and we'll stay at about the same point.

Hope you all enjoy the complicated situation and feel free to ask questions if anything is unclear.

Sorry I’m so behind folks, Tuesdays are my worst day for posting, I’m busy all day. I’ll get something in after work tonight.

Well those Dark Traders were suitably nasty. Terex could easily have died in the first round there. XD But they're like liches, right? They're not really dead if you don't destroy whatever's holding their soul? So now these two will be back with knowledge we're here at some point?

Ideed, they are the enemy, the big bad. And they will be back. But being involved in attempting to destroy hundreds of worlds and such, there's no certainty they'll be back for you in particular. Also, they didn't acquire that much knowledge of the group in the 2-3 rounds it took take them down.

And the Organization has considerable power also, so you have a match.

And yeah, quick channel is a really nasty ability for a high level anticleric.

Speaking of the Organization, I'm guessing they'd want to be appraised that we've run into Dark Traders here? Though it's not that big of a surprise, given the ultimate purpose for which we're here.

Both things true. But keep in mind, everyone, y'all aren't out of melee rounds yet (though probably out of combat). There are a lot of dangerous things going on but you can handle them.

13 skill points a level seems like a lot until you start actually spending them and realize just how many skills you want. :D

Found out that Robots are boring as hell to play, and felt after that last fight to over the top. It's immune to, to much.

Whereas Arlo having a feeling Andriod daughter, hehe fun and games to be had.

I'm her mecha is to much. So making her Mecha 'Spider'into an NPC GM and moved it into its own Alt PC sheet.

So Arlo now has a wife who's expecting twins, and a grown android daughter. I'm wondering how this experience will change Arlo, possibly for the better. Maybe acquire a new archetype? Or multiclass into another paladin, not sure how to best represent this change. I'd like to hear some ideas the other players may have for this. A possible mellowing-out of Arlo Brighthammer. Maybe working toward a new prestige class, perhaps?

I think if you alter Tortured Crusader with a new Archetype that would reflect his new home life happiness but also him Re-gaining his drive to protect
divine-defender
or
sacred-shield
Or
divine-guardian

----
While he spent time with Dragons on the last mission he may have forged and link with a Dragon so powerful it healed his soul dragon-knight

-----
His time with Lyra has led him to a deep understanding of tech, guns and Constructs.
losing his Tortuered soul but gaining forgefather-seeker Title.
Or
Holy Gun

----
Being around his Psionic daughter has awakened the powers of his mind.
Making him a
purifier
OR
Mind Sword

Or go, full-on Cleric of Joy and Family, haha

How is Arlo's Int; he may need to go into Alchemist for remedies...lol.

If you to rearrange the build to get there, I'm fine with that. I'm enjoying all of your evolutions.

I do like seeing characters' builds reflect their character development. :)

Apparently Terex likes rolling natural 20's for three-ball. XD I wonder if there's a way I could incorporate that into his character...

Perhaps, he has been getting looked after by a Leprechaun. Or some other lucky creature. You could take Leadership; make him/her your Cohort?

Perhaps, Terex did a favor during a job that allowed a lucky creature to want to be his guardian?

I've been helping my dad re-roof part of my parents' house so I haven't had a ton of time for posting.

We are on a mini vacation.

Tuned Gift down, so she matches power level with other PCs, Gone is the big cannon on a spider tank, now she as a Hoverbike with a small laser cutter [range 10'] to get past things, and it holds her only ranged weapon. She has to use her Psi-Fu to hurt things now.

I think she feels her mother's layout was a little overkill for a nice city like this.

Oh it looks like nice on the surface...

Trust no one; and keep your laser handy, Citizens!

Narr, it will be fine, I mean what could possibly go wrong.

Funnily enough, feats and items of the sort Terex would very like exist in Starfinder, but not Pathfinder. :D

I'm kind of playing Terex as possibly dangerously interested in the Orb that needs a better name, because it seems the kind of thing that would really entrance his curiosity.

I have to say that I am loving everything that you are all coming up with.

Naturally none of the results will be coming easily but things should be fun.

Arlo may not have the detect evil class ability of standard paladins but things simply "ping" to him. Call this a campaign trait if you want but since it's happened several times before, I should make it explicit.

I just noticed that I spent Ranks twice for UMD...lol. I reallocated 7 Ranks.

GM are there any knight clubs in the city? places where the young and beautiful hand out in the wee hours.

Wow Terex can't roll Perception these days. XD

Syranix is sort of "magically enhanced medieval", it's a mix of 17th, 18th & 19th forms but with much done by magic rather than even simple tech. Lighting is by candle or by alchemical lantern.

The city has cafes and nightclubs in abundance and few cabarets. There are few poor and the very wealthy are not very visible, from what you can see. Most families are merchants, fine craftspeople, wizards and other "middle class" occupations. Most wizards and sorcerers are "commercial magic user", a kind of archetype that enhances the production of good rather than using damage-doing spells (things like telekinetic servants to unload ships, enhance food flavor, etc).

The one place where the wealthy, powerful and up-and-coming are reputed to go is the Great Gambling Hall. It is also described as a source of revenue for the city which hosts mostly foreigners.

So you may be able to find the powerful of the city ... but it will require a bit of looking and/or a strategy. They seem to be a bit hidden below the surface.

Sorry guys, I've been really busy lately. Sunday-Monday are normally my off days, but I got called in to work sunday and then had to get a bunch of stuff done at home monday.

Had Arlo shared with us what he'd seen in the museum?

Arlo's waiting for his answer from the Tender. Then I plan on Barlo telling the group what he knows about Arlo Brighthammer.

I was thinking of before we'd entered the museum, if he'd told us he'd seen this stuff. But I'm guessing from your answer that's a no.

No. You bring up a valid point. Barlo would tell the group of the potentiality of one of their cover's blown, but it's remote: due to Barlo's facial implants and hair color.
The dwarf would also bring up his thoughts of the Universal Museum being a good candidate for the phylactery's position.

So at this point should we say that <Shimmer> has taken up permanent residence in Terex's pack? :D

I'm thinking you all should level up soon.

I'd been figuring we'd level when we finished with this mission, but soon works too. :D

I'm thinking this will be for finishing the first part of the mission, which was reasonably long by itself.

Apologize we took an impromptu vacation to visit parents while they are in-State.
Post tonight once home.

Hey,

The game began July 7, 2020, so we've been at this for more than a year, props and thanks to everyone joining us during any of that time.

This game has been a pleasurable joy. I appreciate everyone involved!

O gosh, there I am from the start wow a year cool, O and did someone say my daughter and husband go up a level? hint hint...

Arlo has changed SO MUCH from last year!

Awesome! Here's to another year of shenanigans! :D

So, assume you level up once you leave the Great Gambling Hall.
