Remember though what it looks like.... Bloody, dirty, torn. Might be hard to find a buyer.
With the change for the other items, 617.5 GP. Half is 308 Gold, 7 Silver, 5 Copper. Minus 100 each for Zhandar to do the potions?
That works! Thanks! Raj is updated.
Updating my character sheet to reflect spell preparation and 100GP for crafting. If Zhandar can't spend all 100 GP, she can keep the remainder and use it for future crafting that will benefit the whole group.
I spent all Zhandar's starting funds, but I am happy to contribute nonetheless. Can we consider her cure light wounds potions to be communal? I don't want to be the only character that isn't putting into the group pool. :)
I wouldn't worry about it, Z. The cash all evens out in the end.
I'm traveling through Monday, so I may be slow to post or absent.
Apologies for the delay, somehow missed that I didn't post and got lost in a busy work week. Sorry about that!
No worries!
What he said!
I do that all the time. ;)
The GM needs to load any icons onto the board. If you have an icon built, you can share it with the GM in a google doc. Otherwise, he will create one.
You should be able to load an icon here, if you'd rather.
Oh, good idea! Thanks! I've made an icon and put it in a google doc here.
Yeah, I do have to make tokens for the both of you.
Assigned yours to you, Zhandar, but I don't know if Horm is in there yet. I removed your HP bar for now, Rajuna, just to make the map clearer. If you want to add it back, that's fine.
Icon Fondler!!!
I want to be clear, when you wrote "The portcullis blocking the way forward is actually down and closed." Do you mean the way is blocked by or unblocked? The word 'actually' is throwing me off.
Ah, sorry, the way is blocked and the portcullis is currently "closed". The controls are burnt and broken beyond being useful.
Sorry I missed the action yesterday. To be honest, I don't check the boards as regularly if there is a period of inactivity.
Also, I will be traveling from Thursday until Sunday, and will likely post once during that time.
Hey Chief, can we get an icon for the dwarf ghost on the map, when convenient? Thanks!
It's actually a haunt not a ghost, so I'm not sure it actually has a particular space for an icon? Can throw one up anyway and just work with it.
Haunt rules are weird, turns out.
Interesting! I’ll have to check that out.
I did a bit of reading and it seems like a haunt is really more of an area-specific trap than a creature encounter per se. So Raj can't attack the haunt itself conventionally. We need to use positive energy, haunt siphons, etc. Or figure out it's 'weakness' to damage it.
That's the weird part, yeah. But then you have feats like Soulblade that let you attack them with a melee weapon.
Obviously haunts (and this AP) weren't designed with the newer options in mind, but we'll make do.
By hook or crook, we'll get it done. But Ghostslayer (which I have) is useful against 'incorporeal creatures' and doesn't specifically mention haunts. Since haunts aren't exactly creatures, I'm guessing that Ghostslayer doesn't help me against these guys. Based on RAW, it looks like I can't attack the Marauder with Ghostslayer. Or am I wrong?
Based on whether I can physically go after a haunt (or this haunt specifically since some haunts seem to manifest as creatures while others don't), that will definitely affect my choices and actions next round.
If one of you want to bot Horm while we await his return, that would be great! He has spells and abilities, so I don't know if you'd want him to use them.
I see somebody already had him channel. That's what I would have recommended.
Thanks Rajuna!
Hey everyone, I'm officially back. Sorry it took me longer than I expected. I ended up sleeping in the airport, then taking an early morning bus, then going to work on the same day (yesterday).
Anyway, I'm feeling like things are getting back to normal for me. Thanks for the bot!
A haunt siphon that neutralizes a haunt can no longer be used to harm haunts, but it can be used as a grenadelike splash weapon that deals 1d6 points of negative energy damage with a direct hit. Every creature within 5 feet of the point where the haunt siphon hits takes 1 point of negative energy damage from the splash.
The haunt siphon Zhandar can't be used again, but can be thrown!
On the LOOT sheet, I separated out 1 MW Studded Leather for Park.
Hey guys, had a death in the family. Dealing with some things, I'll be back in the groove tomorrow. Thanks for your understanding!
Hey all, apologies for the extended absence. Done with the family stuff, but I had to take my pc to the shop for some GPU crashing issues.
Should have it back by tomorrow, but if I don’t then I’ll make a post on my phone by the end of the day. Thank you so much for your understanding this past week!
No worries, welcome back!
No worries and thanks for letting us know.
And we're back! Sorry I don't have much to reveal in the gameplay post quite yet, nothing was waiting for you...yet.
Wanted to take a second before we get into the next room to remind you all that this is a horror themed campaign. I know all of you likely already know that, but 3/4 of you aren’t the ones who originally requested this game be ran and I wanted to make sure everyone was on the same page.
This is a classic horror Adventure Path, which sometimes means bad things will happen to good people. I will not be excessive in describing physical violence or gore, but there are certain moments where descriptions of such events will be necessary to enforce the mood the adventure is trying to portray. If any of you are squeamish, let me know and I’ll put such cases in a spoiler tag for the rest to read.
Just wanted to get ahead of it and iron out any issues we may have had otherwise!
I'm not squeamish about violence or gore and you have go very far to offend me, as a general rule. So bring it on... unless I'M about to be the gore, in which case, make it someone else! :P
I'm not squeamish about such things. I do ask to not have children included in the story....
I think I'll be fine, but thanks for checking.
Sounds good to me!
Also, as much upside as there is to using the maps the way I do, there is also a downside. You can clearly see the iconic "secret door S" on the map, but I trust you all to not use the info from maps you shouldn't have.
That's a graphical detail. A giant S literally appears on the floor of the torture room. Wait. It's only half an 'S'... hmm that's suspicious.
I hope you all had a wonderful Easter, even if you don’t celebrate it. Family holidays are always fun.
I’ll be taking my PC back into the shop tomorrow, the overheating/GPU crashing issue hasn’t stopped. I’ll get posts up from my phone, just warning you ahead of time.
I also want to apologize for the slow speed of the game, a lot of personal things have been happening lately. When it rains it truly pours, doesn’t it? But not to worry, we’ll be getting back into full stride soon enough. Thank you for your understanding!
I hope the personal things settle down and your computer troubles are short-lived! :)
RL trumps the game, and you're not ghosting. Take your time for whatever you need to do. Come back when you're ready. Maybe Horm will return by then....
Hey all, sorry for intruding. I was one of the original players in this game, a while back, and had to step away for RL reasons. I'm back to playing in some other games again and was wondering if you could please mark me inactive in this campaign, just to clean up my campaign tab a bit. Thanks, happy gaming!
Don't forget everyone, Zhandar gave you some temporary potions before the ooze intended to help us fight the final ghost. You don't want to wait until after initiative to drink them, since they boost Dex. ;)
I'll be tapping those as soon as I know we are through anything that lurks in this secret cave.
I agree. Once we know we can get into the room.
Good news! PC is off medical leave and safe and sound back home. Bad news, internet provider is having an outage (that I discovered while writing posts up for my games). I’ll have a post up tomorrow and we’ll get back into the swing of things.
Thank you so much for being patient with me!
Congratulations, GM!
Is Zhandar panicked, as the condition? I wasn't sure, since she failed a Will save and you used the word a couple of time.
Oh right, that would be useful to include! No not panicked, making a post with the haunt’s effects now. Sorry about that.
knowing that herself and two of her allies will be able to see through it
Is there some ability that lets you do this? I don't see anything, but I might be missing it.

Zhandar cast ashen path on Raj, Park, and herself before they fought the ooze.
