Discussion stuff here. I have players fill their info into the slides for the game, so no need to add it here. You are welcome to make dayjob rolls here or in gameplay during your introductions. You can also wait till the end of the session to make them. Go ahead and fill out pages 1 and 2 on the slides.
I tend to prefer in game questions to just use the OOC tags in the gameplay thread so everything is kept in the same place, unless it becomes a major distraction and then we'll switch over to here.
You all are welcome to use this for non-game related discourse or general chat!

Thyste spends a little time getting in touch with her heritage...
Craft (tools): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 23

I just want to let everyone know that I have a giftable reroll. Oooo!
How did you get that?
------------
Voices, Squirrel, and Cat spend their free time playing tiddly-winks. Cat just bats them all over the place or ignores the game entirely. Voices keeps bending the winks. Squirrel wins every time.
-------------
Does anyone in the group want to play as scout or diplomatic face? If not, I can cover one role or the other. I have both a familiar and an eidolon in the build. In PFS I am only allowed to bring one at a time. The familiar makes a halfway decent scout or the eidolon is pretty fair face. If there is a player PC, I just pick one of them at random.
If I am following orders from Cat, I'm not a very nice guy. Squirrel on the other hand likes everyone.

Thyste's idea of face-ing is "glare a problem down until it realizes it doesn't want to stand in her way."
So: Intimidate, but nothing else.

Sorry for the inconvenience, but I will be available to get everything squared away with my character this weekend.
It's cool. I'm usually mostly absent (busy with family) on weekends and this weekend is packed full of activity so I won't be around much. Ideally everyone will get everything updated and their first post in so we can move along Monday.

Hmm... Seems we don't have a real face or scout character. So either could be useful.
Edit:
Oh wait, just re-noticed that Saashaa is bringing the kobold bard pregen. I'm going to assume that could be an at least halfway decent face for a tribe of kobolds. (Obviously speaks draconic.) So then I will probably bring Cat to use as a scout.
Cat has a +21 stealth, +16 perception, +10 climb, low-light, and scent. However; doesn't have darkvision, can't open doors, can't disable traps.
GM, Do you want Cat to go on my initiative or separate? Some GM's prefer one or the other. Makes no difference to me.

Thyste's build as a slayer is rooted mainly in being a sort of hoplite gladiator-- so her skills focus on movement and intimidation, with just a few touches from her ancestry and class (Crafting tools, tracking things, disguising herself when necessary). Feats are focused on using her aspis and dory to rough things up, ideally with her Sneak Attack included (and eventually going into a nice, deadly Hamatula Strike + Shield Snag combo).
Might take a dip into Disabling Devices at some point, just so that the person taking apart the trap and the person who tanks the hit if they mess up are one and the same ;P

I usually do pets/companions on the primary PC initiative unless there is a specific build by a player that needs it differently. If I recall correctly from when I played with you with my PC Dexter, cat is pretty much a non-combative scout so I expect same initiative will work fine.
Glad to have you Fentar.

Sorry didn't have as much time this weekend as I hoped. Still have to clean up profile.

GM TOP |

No worries, just get things finalized as quickly as you can.
I still need four of you to post your information on the slides pages one and two, thanks!

Cat will be somewhere around 30' to 60' in front of us most of the time.
30' if there is absolutely no light, so she can see at least a little bit from our light source.
60' if there is even a little starlight.
But not real precise since he is, you know, a cat not a surveyor. So if it is easier for your mapping or encounter setup to have him a little closer or a little further, no problems.

There were also kobold boons given out at conventions not too long ago.
Please bot me if I'm holding things up for the next few days. I'm going to be taking care of a family member if they feel ill from the second covid shot.

Will do.

My second shot hit me like a bag of bricks. Lasted about 24 hours. My wife felt terrible for slightly longer than that on hers.

No reasonable way for me to contribute from outside, oh no, oh nooooo...
I'll reimburse whoever for my chunk of the payment :P

The extra 60g needed will be split among those who indicated a willingness to help and noted on your chronicles.
I think using the resources of the pregen here was the intent of the player and well planned. And they even have a few coins left over for other emergencies.

Gotta admit. I was kinda hopping you folks would send me to a play by myself. ... Although ... I'd probably have needed someone to bail me out of the prison.

@Voices - I hope I didn't steal your moment. I've been having fun with the dichotomy in our character's intelligence scores. Ruinor always thinks he's the smartest person in the room whether he is or not.

Not at all! Absolutely perfect.
Sometimes in PFS it us hard to get others to engage with a personality. This is the kind of thing Voices was created for.

Given Thyste's current location and our discussion about how far behind the group would be, can I assume we have all moved around the corner before this encounter begins?

GM TOP |

Thyste had a ten foot gap between the group when the surprise round occurred. She then moved up 20 ft on her action. Everyone else is where they started at the initiation of combat.

GM TOP |

I will be putting Fentar in delay for this fight unless they post. I sent them a PM yesterday and no response yet. This way they still have a chance to come back and rejoin but it also doesn't slow down the rest of you.
If they don't come back, no worries. We'll just continue with five.

Please note, GM, this is not aimed at you in any way shape or form. I realize this must be how the scenario is written.
How on earth does moving as your move action and then moving again as your standard action require an acrobatics check, but moving as your move action and then doing something else with your standard action not? Your move actions are exactly the same, so that obviously does not require it. Your standard actions are usually harder and/or more time consuming than a move action, so you are just doing the exact same thing that did not trigger an acrobatics check with more time/effort remaining, and this time it does!

I'm sorry, everyone, but I'm in a really bad place burn-out wise. All of my online games are a chore rather than fun. I'm going to be taking a week off. I know this is inconvenient for everyone, and I would not do it if I saw any alternative. Feel free to use any necessary character resources. I will be back in a week.

GM TOP |

Alright, that works. Will do. Thanks for the heads up.

I think most of us have been there at some point or another! Take the time you need, and we'll try to have a nice weird-tentacle-monster-on-a-stick for you when you get back!

Work has been killing be this weekend. It will continue through Monday. So if I don't post fairly quickly, please feel free to bot me rather than hold up just for me
