[Table Shieldwall] Realm of the Fellnight Queen (Inactive)

Game Master Nathan Hartshorn

Pity he didn't pledge Dark Archive; the Season 6 1st-Tier Faction Reward would've been perfect for a Scrollmaster.

I wouldn't call it "level-dipping" (normally a filthy habit, says I) when the levels are on par with your other class, and you need it for your prestige class. :)

Oh, hey - and he's an Aeromancer, too! First time I've seen one of those, as well! I notice you focused on Necromancy; a fine choice, but did you know that you CAN take Spell Focus in Elemental as well as 'conventional' Schools of Wizardry?

DO specialist Wizards get to apply their bonus-school-spell-per-level to Cantrips? I thought not, but if so, my Illusionist (and first Wayang character, from back when they needed a Boon!) has been shortchanging himself a bit all this time.

@Xasay - Anthys's ring is a Ring of Tactical Precision, which increases all numerical bonuses of teamwork feats by 1.

Sorry the delay...RL hit me hard this past week and I've neglected things because of it.

A post will be forthcoming today.

Messaging all games: I will be unable to post until Wed pm. Please bot me as needed. Thx!

The unexpected downtime yesterday certain proved a nuisance... In case anyone is checking this thread but unable to sign in to post, here's a guide I stole from GM TOP.

Work is a bit busy at the moment, but should be able to post this afternoon/evening.

On behalf of I'm Hiding In Your Closet, at his request, i'm giving a heads up.

He has been having login problems, and the solution provided on the board has proven ineffective. He has no estimate of when he is able to, awaiting further tech support, but will rejoin you as soon as possible.

Understood. Hope everything gets worked out soon.

Thanks for the heads up

GM RePete,

I can't speak for my fellow players' intent for sure, but I believe some of them may be waiting to see if 'suppress charms and compulsions' has had an effect on the angry treant or not before announcing their next move.

I know it is usually more efficient for the GM to wait until all players have stated their actions before making the next post, but in this case would you be able to simply blurb out an interim message like 'no effect' or 'the treant seems to calm down' i.e. one line only, and no need to write up a full GM post with all the initiative and stuff. That way the players can decide what to do and post their actions. You can even provide that quick feedback here in the Discussion thread so as not to clutter your Gameplay flow.

Cheers,
PDK/Berato

Understood and no problem.

The spell doesn't seem to have any effect on the creature's current predicament.

Ok thanks!

Sorry, I just can't see Anthys attacking first in this situation.

It's been a little bit hard to stay engaged with this module between the GM and PC changes, and some lulls in the posting, or maybe the module just really isn't clicking yet, but in any event I am still here and I will stick with it.

Anthys is, at the moment, AC 25 (base)
+3 Shield Wall (from Vindlér adjacent)
+1 Heart of the Streets (2 allies adjacent)
+3 sacred vs evil foes (Lastwall Phalanx, 2 allies adjacent plus Ring)
+2 deflection vs evil (Berato's Magic Circle Against Evil)

For AC 34, or 29 vs non-evil foes.

Could be higher if I used Total Defense instead of delaying, but that might be ridiculous.

I'm also having a hard time with this module. If the GM is willing to provide some hints or clarifications as to the direction this module is taking that would be much appreciated.

So far every encounter has been complicated or some kind of moral trap.

Even the solutions brought by an 8th level cleric with the protection domain with multiple ways of removing conditions has not worked on either the previous treant encounter or this one. I don't mind if a module throws a curve ball with some specific cures / rituals required for certain situations, but when those occur, the module should provide ways to gather that information and those resources.

I'm willing to stick around if this is almost over, but if we're not past the 75% completion mark I'm inclined to bow out of this one.

So the treant and the dwarf encounter are a straight railroad. The situation with the dwarf is even a unique variation to a creature to give it a unique variation of a specific spell.

Add to it, without the knowledge the dwarf possesses, there is almost no way of finding out what you need to move forward without stumbling around a bit.

I'm am definitely Not a fan of this part.

--> Thankfully Kimo has done enough damage to end the affect on Devarre (which I'll post momentarily)

In regards to where we are in the module. We are just shy of 3/4 of the way through the story.

Thanks for the heads up! if this is such a massive module I'm in favor of an expert narration experience by the GM, and fast forwarding to that spoilered fortress...

I would rather not do that.
A First World adventure can be atmospheric and quirky and confusing - that is all fine with me. I am here for the story, not just a Chronicle sheet. I do not enjoy hand-waving unless the skipped sections are actively bad.

(I did not read the spoiler.)

But I am sorry that we seem to have lost Vindlér. GM, can you PM him?

Anthys, if the GM has no desire to run us through dozens of [spoiler] useless encounters I'm more than willing to accommodate him and read the scenario later for story purposes. The GM said that the next part of the story, even if we skip the dozens of [spoilered] useless fights, is a MASSIVE dungeon and my experience in PbP is that those can last up to a year and break a campaign.

I'm willing to work with the GM on this one and trust him that we won't miss any story with any modifications he makes. Anthys, if you want to slug through the entire thing unmodified, then I'd rather drop out of this game now as the months ahead will be quite busy for me...

Let me know what will it be and I will decide accordingly.

Regards,
Berato/PDK

Yes, reading that spoiler does put things in a different light. I was instead judging by the non-spoilered "3/4 through" comment. I had thought it was you as a player requesting a fast-forward.

I trust the GM to do what they think best. I think we have shown that fights with Spriggans are not particularly exciting or challenging.

But I do wish to skip only what the GM wishes to skip. Convincing the good creatures of the forest to aid us, for example, seems a good scene to have.

I support GM's decision

Is our GM here?

F!~*ing Dark Fey and their abductions....

Hey folks. I’m afraid things have come to a point for me where I can’t sustain my desired level of engagement with this campaign. Between work becoming increasingly busy, my increased responsibilities at home as a father, and the general mental wear and tear of the past year, I’m just not keeping up with things as I would like to and as would be fair to my fellow players.

I’m going to withdraw from this campaign effective immediately. GM, please remove me from the campaign (assuming you have access to do so). Sorry for falling off in my participation here folks, but I don’t think it’s fair to you all for me to keep dragging this out any longer. Hopefully we can play together again another time.

Best of luck to you all!

I will also withdraw from this scenario at this time. If I play with Anthys and Vindler again my preference would be for shorter PFS scenarios. These 3 XP modules are becoming impossible to complete in PbP...

Where is our GM?

Shall we look for another GM if GM RePete cannot continue? Or can we just received chronicle sheets for this module and finish with this? I don't have desire to play this again.

I will contact Tyranius so that we can maybe get our chronicles at least...

In the meantime, let's get our PFS reporting ready in the event this gets wrapped up by PFS PbP management. I am not interested to have a 3rd GM take over but if Tyranius decides to report it and give us our chronicles I would like to be ready for him:

PFS info directly above. Thanks Tyranius!

Here are your chronicles. Your game has all been reported into the system. I could not find a day job roll for Xasay but I was able to locate his PFS information for chronicle and reporting.

Thank you, Tyranius.

Thank you very, very much Tyranius. Much appreciated!

Thank you!

Finally checked back in after another prolonged 'lapse'. OUCH.

Day Job: Perform (Keyboard): 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (8) + 17 = 25

Please update my sheet WITH the above Day Job roll. That is all I ask.

Unfortunately as I am not the owner of this thread, I am unable to close it. But I do have a solution to get it off of your Campaign page.

Thanks Tyranius. I've emailed Customer Service, as this fix doesn't work on my end. Thanks for trying though.

Cheers,
