I was wondering what we want to do over the holidays. Do we want to take a break over christmas say the 23 through 29th and then resume on the 30th or what would you all prefer. I will have company here but could probably squeeze in a post or two from the 22 til the 28th. My daughter is getting baptized and will have her grandparents and aunt here for that.
In some regards it would be easier for me to take the break but I can figure it out if the group decides to keep the one post a day pace.
Let's decide here in the next few days.

I vote we take a break. I am free every day, but I know how hard it is to sneak away, and from the sounds of things, your daughter would probably love your full attention in this time. Congrats

I wouldn't mind a one week break. Things are hectic here for me with the hospital situation and I', not looking forward having to juggle that against spending holidays in between with the family.
Break it is then starting 23rd through the 29th.

Wishing you all an Early Merry Christmas.
I'll be preparing for a Christmas Feast though in a small group setting.
Post rate will be lower for this Christmas period.
we will be taking a break from December 23rd tomorrow til Dec 29th. SO no worries about posting.

haha that would be the way to end that scenario. At a point of note I also noticed that I was running on the wrong stats. The once showing in my character profile were the raging stats. basically we would need to remove 2 from all previous rowing rolls. However It still plays that I was stressing that poor oar and broke it with my strength. I have updated my stats to show the bull strength stat. I will try to be better with changing those to be current. Sorry as well for not posting last night. We found out early in the evening that my wife had been exposed to someone who later tested positive for Covid. We were enacting out quarantine procedures. Today I took her down to get tested and she is negative on the quick test. we are still waiting for the results of the second test which we will get in the next few days.
that sucks. Don't stress the post or lack of one last night RL took presidencce.
Merry Christmas and happy holidays

I am here. I have been interested to see what happens since the rolls I did and posted were so bad.
I hope that everyone is doing well and had a good break.

I just realized that while the idea of a huge seahorse pulling the canoe by a rope held by Brek and Ohime is cool imagery, it might have been more practical to just put two of us on each horse. Though the horses *are* fragile and we'd fall into the water if they got hurt... and then we'd probably still want the boat to swim to nearby. :)

Happy new year to you and yours.
I'll get something up later when I get done with work.
Ill get something up tomorrow as this is sunday and I don't expect anyone to post. I know I do sometimes but don't expect it of anyone.

Just a heads up. Herk reached out to let me know he is having trouble with his login to the site. He is working with support to get it fixed. I also had some trouble last night but did not look further into it until today. Mine was just a cache issue. He is hoping to have it resolved today and be able to post later. If he reaches out with updates I will let you know.

Yeah, just delete the cache for Paizo. It should be working fine now.

I had the same problem! Just in case, options which clear temporary internet files or all cookies did not appear to work for me. I had to manually select the paizo cookies and delete them.
If you use Chrome, it's in Settings > Cookies and other site data > See all cookies and site data. Then pick paizo and manually delete it.
I had to do the same. Krokkin wanlked me through a basic cache clear ... using brek's instructions but it wasn't enough I had to clear the whole cache. Such a hassle.

If it helps. 90% of the users had issues....
I had to clear my cookie thrice.

Hey Brek, wanted to thank you out of character as Krokkin would not have heard your convo with Sorogar. I was pretty sure I was going to lose the fight no matter what since he was doing 2+ attacks to my one each round. I am glad you were thinking to check the crowd for cheating.

Actually it was a pretty equal fight. TIriss had 22 hp left. It was just his brawlers class that made him difficult and the fact that he is an unseen lizardfolk which does give a +10 to stealth which definitely helped him. He was only 1 level above because of his racial adjustment for being unseen.

I went looking to see if I had a claw and bite attack but could not find anything. Anyway it was a fun battle and I was glad that I was able to damage him at all with the unseen component.

I'm curious though how did he stealth in combat if he doesn't have hide in plain sight or anything that allows him to do such?
Or is unseen a template?

Wouldn't be a first time. I pulled off such a stunt as a GM myself.
The party agreed to an honorable one on one fight but the 'Honorable' Knight had a halfling deaf oracle on his side and was casting CLW on the sly. Took the party a few rounds to realize it as their Meat shield got beaten up.

I've seen that used multiple times too. Even more covert way is to have any caster simply cast Shield Other, which lasts hours, and he hides out of sight. Effectively doubles the combatant's HP.

Oh yes. Shield other is a pretty good spell too.
I will have something up later tomorrow. Extremely stressed tonight and tired. Can't think to well.

Hey everyone, I've had a very busy weekend, a lot of time in visiting the hospital too, and I won't be able to respond until somewhere tomorrow night. Apologies for the delay. I could do a short response but it feels ill fitting for both Risstui's story and the reception at the elder's tent.
no worries hope all is going well with kiddo.
We are due to have ours on feb 10 so if my posting goes quiet for a day or so around that time that is why
