GM ZD Breaking the Storm Arc (Inactive)

Game Master Z...D...

Excellent job all.

If we are waiting until after next weekend, odds are high Bardyth will be gaining a level too, winding up at 8th, as I am almost finished running a Play by Discord of Life's Long Shadows. If we go sooner, I'll be applying the credit for part 3 instead.

Confirmed sheet looks good.

Experienced smuggler, so level -1 not-2

day job, 8 days, underworld lore: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 14
Whomp.

Field commission

day job, 4 days, underworld lore: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (17) + 9 = 26

Oh, lore is Trained.

Edit: Made an account but I can't see any chronicles. Presumably I had to be signed up when I joined.

They will be coming by way of email. The site generates them and then emails them once I tell it too.

Cool thing about it is I have the extension as well and it make reporting as easy as copy/paste.

Once everyone confirms their info as correct, I complete them.

Pahmet Lore (E; Level bump does not apply to this right?): 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (13) + 10 = 23
Otherwise information looks good!

1 day for filing paperwork!

Lore (Legal) M: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (15) + 17 = 32

1 Gold for 1 day's work.

earn income Perform Drama Expert level 6 due to boon: 1d20 + 16 ⇒ (10) + 16 = 26

Succeed. 2gp x8 days = 16gp.

That Horizon Hunters boon is awesome for people who can max out their day job skill. Alas, Pip takes a pay cut working for a non-profit like the Envoy's Alliance Legal Defense Fund!

Lore (Demon) T: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (15) + 13 = 28

I can confirm the character name and level. I don’t see where it has the character number, but assume it is correct.

I am fine with waiting until after next weekend so that both Ionic and hopefully Bardyth can get the additional chronicles. Gives me time to worry over what to do when leveling Salliss.

The day job boon is nice but I don't always make the roll.

Btw if our purchases are added to the chronicle for us Herondal bought a Pocket Stage. 138 gp.

I track all my purchases in a spreadsheet along with XP and reputation. I find it makes it easier for me to keep track of things.

Crafting(E), task lvl 6 (boon), DC22: 1d20 + 15 ⇒ (10) + 15 = 25 16 gp

I can confirm the character name and level. I don’t see where it has the character number, but assume it is correct.

It would be under that information. You should be able to see all of your own information unless you got logged out. I am currently working on them and will send them out shortly. If you do not get an email from RPG Chronicles within an hour, then something went wrong.

It is most likely that I have not created an account. I tend to wait to see how much I will really use a service before creating yet another account.

Level bump does not apply to this right?

Correct.

Just got my chronicle. Everything looks correct to me.

Emails have been sent out. Let me know if I need to adjust anything.

It looks like the earn income totals have been calculated into the total gold received. First time I ever added it to the chronicles on my end through this service.

The game has also been reported.

Whenever you all are ready, I have made a sign-in sheet for the next game.

Link

I filled out the sign-in sheet. We probably should update the secret rolls document too. (I just did.)

Does anyone have any suggestions for cheap (under 50 gp) and useful items I should buy for Salliss?

I have already replaced the Silversheen that I used and purchased 4 Shining Ammunition arrows as a way to better deal with the problem just encountered.

I don't really buy trinkets.

I updated the secret checks. I took D-Door because even though it got nerfed hard, Freedom of Movement did too and many monsters grab. Also took Remove Curse. Odds are my 2 lvl 4 slots will be unicorn or a heightened damage spell.

Untrained Improvisation kicks in and I can now do trained actions with any skill and add my level. Not that I should try.

So Bardyth, how useful have you found the jumping feats to be?

Tossing around various ideas for skill feats and both Powerful Leap and Quick Jump are things that might be useful, especially if I later get the rogue feat Fantastic Leap.

I’m not sure it is worth it considering that I could just cast Fly off a scroll. Sounds cool, but I’m really not sure it is worth two skill and one class feat.

Thus the question of how much use the Quick Jump and Powerful Leap have been for you in play.

Useful, cheap, items suggestion. If you don't already have a weapon talisman. A bloodseeker beak is nice. A bit of extra damage in general is always appreciated, even if it is only a little, and you'd be adding persistent damage too. It's also great cus, unlike a lot of talismans, the trigger is "you hit a flat footed creature". So you already know the one time effect will apply, since you have to hit first. (Great on Nat 20s, cus then you know the bonus damage will be doubled.)

As for the jumping feats. I find them really useful for me. But I A) can't use a fly scroll myself, B) have tighter reqs on action economy cus of a two handed weapon, C) when going Large, have a harder time avoiding difficult terrain while moving. Just some points of reference.

Thanks for the response on the jumping feats.

After some more thought, I’ve decided to go with Swift Sneak. It is required for Legendary Sneak and my character is already invested in speed, might as well be able to do that when sneaking.

The bloodseeker beak talisman seems like a good idea as well.

Thanks!

Very competent actually. Remember, You are following Herondal's lead so you add your level.

So we need to know your level of training in order to Follow the Expert. I assume that is what you are having us do is Follow the Expert.

Yes and Herondal is currently Expert. He'll be Master at Perform next scenario.

So it would be 2 plus level plus attribute modifier. When Herondal becomes Master it would be 4 plus level plus attribute.

Not that this matters, but aren't you a Master now? We just finished the scenario. By the way, I love that we are technically on break, but are still playing. That's the sign of good team chemistry.

I figured we train between scenarios. I guess this could be during downtime. More something we work on over the week then that evening. In which case sure, Master rank so level +4.

Ok, Hopper is updated.

I used some downtime from AP to replace two feats: Gobling Weapon Familiarity (instead of Rought Rider) and Goblin Weapon Frenzy (instead of Burn it!)

Level 7 feat: Toughness
Skill increase Crafting to Master
Alchemist weapon expert so my bonus gets way better. And his HP is way higher.

Purchases:
Dogslicer with Striking and Wounding rune, Warding (wave) tattoo

Wolfie updated as well to lvl 7.

Didn’t you need Rough Rider to get Wolfie?

I’ll admit that I haven’t gone through all the animal companion rules, but I thought you needed that feat in order to have a wolf you could ride.

Pretty sure that is the case. OPM have not specified any additional options as far as mounts are concerned.

You are correct, Cavalier can pick any animal with mount trait, which before the Grand Bazar was only (I think) a Horse ;)

That is correct, which means that:
I replace Burn it! for Goblin Weapon Familiarity and
Twitchy for Frenzy

Leaving Rough Rider as is, which gives me that sweet Ride feat :D

There is no way in Golarian that I am swapping Wolfie for some Horse!

But then you could call them Horsie! Lol

Naw, he would miss Wolfie so much he would shout himself Horse.

He probably needs time to mule over his options.

But he'd have to deal with alot of ney sayers!

In other news, I just got my 5th and final chronicle to level Ionic! I have most of the choices for leveling him made, I just need time to sit down and process things.

How about that,
'Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the right ...'

A gnome and half-elf walk into a bar
the bar for this joke was set really low.

============
Well done @Sedoriku with your game, I was glad to see that you got a full table for such short notice.

If no one objects, we are set to start Part 2 on Monday/Tuesday of next week.

And Hopper when ever you get a chance, can you fill out your character information HERE

Also take some time to work out the Hero Point situation. I'll refresh the original page

I have two glyph’s, so an extra hero point to Herondal and Ionic.

I look forward to seeing the 7th level Ionic. He has progressed a lot since he had to deal with that keep with all the kobolds!

Done.

Still no glyph here, 4 scenarios away and GM'ing 3 in PBP. So I might get my glyph somewhere during our last session ;)

I just recently got my first glyph.

I think that Bardyth as our biggest damage dealer should probably be running around with two at all times.

Congrats on the glyph!

Congratulations on your Glyph! I have two glyphs as well, and Bardyth does too.

We each started out with the maximum of two heropoints last time, so I suspect that we will each start out with two this time too.

Roger that. Will make sure everyone has the 2.

And congrats on the glyph.

Congrats Ionic!

What is the DC to activate a level 2 wand via Trick Magic Item?

Rules

A GM call. So let's go with the base DC for the item level. Whatever a level 2 Wand is Item level 5, so DC is 20.

Nice. So I can only critical fail on a 1 by the time I take the feat.

I said it before, but why not again. Congrats mate! May Ionic stride grow longer with every glyph that you get ;)

Alright, I've leveled Ionic to 7th and should be ready to play!

The first post of part 2 is up.

Also, thanks to whoever added the slides with the area of effect templates.

Can you have only one rune on a weapon: meaning bleeding or ghost touch?

Btw. I bought low-grade silver dogslicer - since we are chasing demons more than feys here.

Unfortunately.

You can have a Number of property runes on a weapon equal to the bonus of the Weapon Potency run. Rule
