[PF2/Farol] 3-04 The Devil-Wrought Disappearance (Inactive)

Game Master Farol

Yup, just got it last month! I'm definitely giving it to Itka, caster with a level bump can be scary.

Emdi will give them to the lowest level characters.

Thank you both!

Sadly, I believe Itka can only get one glyph hero point. We can't load then up on her exclusively. We might need to give one to someone else.

That is correct. Emdi gives his two to whoever are the other lower level characters. If the Character tab is cotrect, that's Symeon and Arfsnarf.

That is my understanding as well, so Itka, Symeone and Arfsnarf start with extra hero point.

We will use the same thread and presentation for maps and such

"Bring it on gods of fortune. I'm ready for you."

Accepting the challenge, gods of fortune prepare elite templates... Whistles innocently ;)

Fair enough. I'm happy to share.

Friends, I’ve very badly injured my hand today and can’t move it. I’ve had many stitches. I’m typing this with only one hand.

I’m going to step away from my games for several days to a week. If I am a player, please bot me. If I am the GM, I’ll see you in a few days.

Oh no :/ Hope it heals very quickly!

Ouch! Yeah, I hope it heals well, no worries I will bot Hornbori and give him back in the same amount of pieces that you left him ;) Take care of yourself!

So, Outpost have been announced and it starts 6th of March. If for whatever reason you want to play that PC during Outpost at a different table that is the time to speak up. I am almost certain that we will finish this game before that date, but this will be not my goal if not said otherwise.

===================

I still plan to offer the 2-23 Agents of Oblivion, if it will align I will sign this game under Outpost so that we get more ACP points ;) Cause why not.

Since the alignment of dates @WaterySoup if you don't have that scenario consider signing up for outpost to get it from Paizo, I already bought mine, so if you decide that you don't have the bandwidth to run it for this group I can do it without much trouble.

Nope, I'd intended to stay on for the next scenario. No need to hurry for Arfsnarf (but aligning with Outpost sounds fun anyway :) ).

Same sentiments as Arfsnarf. No need to rush on my account.

I'm of the same mind.

I will sign up to offer 2-23 for Outpost, with private recruiting (if possible).

I don't have any plans to play Emdi for anything else, so any timing is okay with me.

I assume the anatomical model being discussed is the one from the Dacilane Academy, no? Did Symeon really bury the remains under a tree? LOL. That must have been a fun bit of role-playing.

Yup! He did. Lugged it around until we went outside and then made sure it had a proper burial.

Yup. The RP in that game was great. At some point we chilled in the teacher's lounge and helped ourselves to coffee and Bailey's (or whatever the Pathfinder version of it is).

From Tues. Jan. 25th to Feb. 4th, we'll be getting major electrical work done on our home. They have a plan in place to maintain our internet access, but you never know how these things will go. Feel free to bot me if you don't hear from me in 24 hours. As Arfsnarf is my better half, he'll be in the same boat.

I used Intimidation for Emdi/Jayma and Arfnsarf for initiative and Perception for the rest. Sorry @Jayma rolled really low for you :(

@Jayma you get the Hero Point, I like your ideas to create a distraction to aid in the count's bodyguard's attempt to escape and intimidate the guards. Well done!

@Hornbori - I don't think you are around the boards? Or are you?

Anyone will be willing to bot Hornbori? (Preferably Jamya as you are in the same initiative group with him).

If he will not come back before the end of the fight I will consider taking him out of the scenario. I don't want to rob him of the opportunity of playing this scenario by reducing him to a striking bot ...

I got misled by Jayma using Deception(Coerce) in her dice expression, but it does not matter much, let us roll with that.

Oh shoot! My bad. My Coerce template states Deception when it should have been Intimidation. I can see how that would cause confusion. Sorry about that.

@Jayma you get the Hero Point, I like your ideas to create a distraction to aid in the count's bodyguard's attempt to escape and intimidate the guards. Well done!

Blush! Very kind of you.

Anyone will be willing to bot Hornbori? (Preferably Jamya as you are in the same initiative group with him).

Sure. If he doesn't take care of it himself by the time it's Jayma's turn, I'll bot him.

I'm back, baby. I can't use the left hand quite as much for a while yet, but I can type slowly.

Welcome back!

Hey, good to have you back. Fortunately, Hornbori uses a one-handed ax so you should be fine ;) - yeah I know bad joke

I am happy that you are recovering...

So this is odd fight...
On low levels (3-4) you fight here torchbearers (CR0! AC15 HP 15), and scaling just add more of them. Which is ridiculous

On high tier (5-6) you fight archers (CR2) and there is 5 of them (according to the scaling), so there is one less of them and they are 3 lvl lower (on average) ...

And at the same time, on my other game, 6 PC's of lvl 5 fights two weak Bulettes (CR8, 80+ HP, +19 to hit etc.) as their first fight.

Some things are surprising...

GM Farol, It looks like you scratched out the Red guard from the initiative list instead of the Blue guard. The slide seems to be correct.

Thanks, corrected

Sorry. I would have botted Hornbori when I posted for Jayma, but when he posted in Discussion, I assumed that he was back in the game. If you'd like, I can bot him with my next post if he doesn't say otherwise.

No need to apologize. I was under the same assumption, so I gave Tarondor Friday and weekend since this fight is neither exciting nor challenging ;) I decided to bot him to move us forward, he will have plenty of opportunities to swing his ax.

I'm here. Sorry!

I've signed up to GM #2-23 An Agent's Obligation for Outpost V. It's listed as GM choice for the recruitment - basically, all the players in this game have a seat if they wish. Please let me know if you're not planning to continue - I'll ask for open recruitment for those seats.

I'm happy to continue with this group. :)

Watery, Count me in for #2-23

Definitely! I'd love to keep with this group!

Yes please. Arfsnarf's fortunes will continue in 2-23.

Arfsnarf, I hate to point this out, but I do not believe that casting a bloodline granted cantrip triggers a sorcerer's blood magic. Only by casting a bloodline spell using Focus Points or a granted spell from your bloodline using a spell slot, you gain a blood magic effect.

@Hornbori - no worries. It is fine, just a misunderstanding and a combination of weekend etc.

@WaterySoup - yeah I would love to join and play the 2-23, I will most likely bring Makai (my warpriest) as she is the closest to frontline that I have. And she brings few healing spells. At that time she will be level 4.

WaterySoup - I'm definitely up to play 2-23! Thanks!

Doh, yeah I missed that emphasis. I guess cantrips don't count after all.

I let you decide on the silversheen. Also, I put you on the map, each one of you can move up to 10 ft, but not towards the humanoid. So you can shuffle a bit if you like ;)

Does the big green cross-shaped tank thingy in the middle of the room impede line of sight or provide cover of any kind, or has it collapsed to the ground? In other words, can we move across it, shoot spells/missiles from behind it or should we treat it as a wall?

Oh, one more thing. How flammable is this room? Are the walls/floor/ceiling stone or something more combustible such as wood. Asking for a friend.

Flammable? No, rather not. The cross in the middle it was a giant terrarium with a triceratops skeleton in it. Apparently the skeleton was animated at some point of time and it broke the glass. At the bottom of the cross was supposed to be water => the fish bones. So I would say, that it is not a wall, you can get a cover (but not a greater cover).

Hornbori can have the silversheen.

Tomorrow (Saturday) morning (Central European Time: UTC+1) I will be leaving Spain and driving to Italy where I will be living for the next several months. If all goes according to plan, the trip should take about 3 days, with me getting there sometime on Monday evening. I will not be totally incommunicado during this time and will try to post at least once a day. But if you find that I am not as responsive as usual, you will at least know why.

Hope it's a good trip!

Nice. Have a good road trip!

Safe travels!

Good luck with your trip Jayma! When you cross the border with Italy don't be afraid to order dishes with 'burro' ;) (In Spanish Burro means donkey, in Italian - butter ;))

I did not have time to cut the map into pieces but Google sheet has a nice zoom in feature, that I hope is good enough

LOL. Fortunately my Spanish and Italian are pretty good; good enough to navigate a menu at least. I am definitely looking forward to good Italian food, starting tonight. I’m in Sanremo tonight with one more day of driving tomorrow to get to my final destination.

I see that Jayma crit-failed her initiative. That way she won’t be holding things up tomorrow.
