And then you can make a non-PFS character profile, or a companion character.

Thanks! It's for a druid character I'm adding...

can anyone produce flame? maybe melt some of our silver coins and line them on the edge of a blade?

There is the item Silversheen. Unfortunately you would have to travel as you are 60 miles from Sauerton.

The best options I have are:

- Enlarge to make Nnamdi, Tiger and Deroff large. You get a +2 damage bonus to help overcome the Damage Resistance (or maybe it takes more damage from Silver? 2E can do both options.)
- Magic Fang to help Tiger and Deroff with their unarmed strikes deal extra damage.
- Electric Arc for damage, I don't think it resists electric damage.

- Summon Fey Lets me summon fey monsters of level 1 and below. I doubt any of them carry silver weapons, but at least there's another body to get hit.

- I could try to open up with Charm and bait the devil into giving me his glaive or letting you get into position to clobber him.

I already have damage enhancement from the handwraps. But that requires me to get up close and personal... Can you summon fey to go get us some of that silversheen? ;)

Actually Eltis might have the right idea -- since we only have the ghost's word that the devil is as powerful as he says... but then again, he could also be telling the truth...

Just throwing this out...

Our mission doesn't specifically say we need to clear the lodge. It says to gather information and report back. I'd say the 2 missives we have should be proof enough that the lodge existed.

Just my 2 coppers...

The best options I have are...

These are all good ideas. When I rage I get +2 to damage rolls that I'm not sure stacks with the enlarge bonus damage. In case you needed help deciding who to pick to enlarge. I also thought about trying to use the disarm action to get the glaive away from him using my hero points to help out.

If we can go up and clear the kobolds without having to fight the devil then coming back to rest I'm on board with that.

All right, that seems to be the consensus. Will move forward with that.

It's not usually a factor, but if I suddenly disappear -- particularly on the weekends, it's most likely because my internet connection decided to go on vacation. It's not often, and my connection is about 95% consistent, but it happens. Whatever happens, I won't suddenly disappear on you. But if my home connection drops (especially on the weekend), the only place I'll be able to respond will be at work. It's one of the main reasons why I don't commit to live games -- I don't trust the internet in the Philippines...

All good :) Everyone is off on the weekends and straining the bandwidth

So this is my first time encountering Calm Emotions and some questions come to mind. When we continue to engage the kobold mage, will the effect on the other kobolds end? Or do we have to actually harm the kobolds for the effect to end?

Wow, Calm Emotions worked. Woohoo, I usually don't get to win initiative and have so many enemies fail their Will Saves.

Failure Any emotion effects that would affect the creature are suppressed and the creature can't use hostile actions. If the target is subject to hostility from any other creature, it ceases to be affected by calm emotions.

Critical Failure As failure, but hostility doesn't end the effect.

I can only sustain the spell for a minute, but that should be enough time to take out the apparent leader and the two non-calmed goons. I interpret "subject to hostility" as a direct attack against them, but that's my opinion. At the very least I bought us some time to get out of the first bottle neck.

I would take that as direct hostility to the affected Kobold,

The mage is clearly the primary target. But what will attacking the mage do to his goons? If they're just regular kobolds (unlike those on the 2nd level), we should be able to handle them.

So can we just walk up to the mage and pound the stuffing out of him? Will the calmed goons go hostile the minute we do that?

Yeah. I was thinking of maybe restraining the mage while we move on. We'll be like "We were just passing by but that one's being a jerk so we had to shut him up..."

that'd work.

Eltis would be happy with the restraining but if it's not feasible...

appears the mage made a run for it... now what? Should we just charge the warriors and be done with it?

The warriors in the room in front of you are still under the effects of Calm Emotions spell. Those behind the barricade are not.

So we're just going after the caster and the 2 who weren't affected?

Depends on you :) I am just making sure you guys are aware of which ones are affected.

Everyone, I'll be on vacation starting on Wednesday the 21st and returning on Tuesday the 27th. My internet should be fine so I expect to continue posting.

If I need to be botted, Miladistra will command Deroff to attack. Then she'll Stride so she can cast either cast Electric Arc or Heal next round.

Sounds good and thanks for the update Miladistra.

There might be a slight delay in posting. Tomorrow is a holiday and I'm going to spend half the day doing some fishing... :)

Going catfishing -- basically catfish as long as your arm with a head that will cause bludgeoning damage should it connect at high speed :)

I hope you aren't doing it the hard way! I've seen people who do that and have less than 10 fingers. :)

I do love some fried catfish...

Actually fishing trip has been cancelled -- there's a typhoon inbound. I do use a rod and reel. I'm not sticking my hand into a hole. :)

No Noodling! :). That’s too bad on the typhoon rolling in.

Well, the catfish we have don't have mouths big enough to swallow your hand (or your fingers). It's a pay pond -- basically pay for your catch... We use chicken innards as bait. Each fish is about 1-2kg in size. But either way, I'm still not blindly sticking my hand in a hole :)

I don't blame you. We have people that do that here when it became the craze. We have big snapping turtles that will get your hand.

Oh yes. I've seen the noodling videos on Youtube a lot. Those guys have guts blindly sticking their hands in a hole... and alligator snappers will ruin your day...

Somehow I had a feeling that the last encounter wasn't going to end peacefully... :)

Oh yea, he wants Diggen at all costs. That and more souls.

at this point I'm wishing I got battle medicine...

I didn't want to chance it on Nnamdi because I didn't want him to go to Dying 3 if I crit-failed (DC 18). I forgot that Eltis already stabilized him.

The game should now be reported and below is the link to your chronicles. Please look them over for ny errors so that I may correct them right away.

Also by your choices you have unlocked a fairly neat boon. Infernal Detonations is a fun reaction.

Chronicles (Link)

Looks good on my end. It was an exciting ending. Thank you, everyone, for making this a memorable scenario. Hope to playing with you all again soon.

I will check on Monday from work. It’s a bit hard doing all this on a tablet… my internet at home is down. Probably from the bad weather we’ve been having.

Looking forward to playing with you all again. Thanks for a great game Tyranius

Not a problem, I will keep all of the chronicles up.

Thank you for the great game and accurate chronicles.

Chronicle looks fine. Really enjoyed the game. Thank you for running! This is a great group, would be happy to play with any of you in the future!

Same here, everyone was great! The chronicle sheet looks good and thanks for GMing and be patient with us. This was a lot of fun

Cliffhanger ending. Thanks for the game all.

I have my chronicle. Looks good. Looking forward to the next one.
