I assume no upgrading existing items?
No. It's from the Korvosa Watch armory.
Eyes of the eagle please.
Sorry been traveling. Will post a bit later
Sorry. No update today due to life getting in the way.
Zahur, Vedika & Ariadne still need to pick an item from the armory.
Ariadne seems to be having RL problems at the moment and is slow in posting so lets get things moving again with the Vencarlo hook I dropped for you.
Fine to move on to Vencarlo whenever.
I honestly don't know what to pick. Can't use armor, don't really benefit from weapons because the arcane trickster has poor BAB so I'm not supposed to be fighting.
Yes, the Arcane trickster takes a few levels to really get going. Maybe just a light crossbow for something to do besides throwing shuriken?
+5 perception is never a bad thing, maybe there were two eyes of the eagle, matching pairs.

Or just get a very underrated item like the Handy haversack. One of the first things I always get.
Ah, I misremembered and thought that it was only weapons and armor, not items possibly including weapons and armor.
Handy haversack it is.

I thought Vedika already had one of those.
Wait, I do. Cat burglar's boots, then.
I have an appointment today which will take some time. So no update sorry.

Man, I hate purchasing magic items sooo much.
I'll go with a pair of Stagger-Proof Boots (that I'll most likely forget I have).
Since Vedika didn't want her mithral shirt enchanted, Kayleigh can add a +1 to someone else's armor if anyone's interested. If no one is, she'll enchant her own agile breastplate.
Had to travel to Kansas, half vacation, half taking care of my wife's dad so her brother can go on vacation. Posting now.
Kayleigh, if you can do Masterwork Transformation, add the Nimble modification (1,000 gp), then add the +1 to the maiden full plate; that would be amazing.
For Item I'll go with Scabbard of Vigor Price 1,800 gp

Sorry for the amount of text you have to wade through. This is the start of Book 3 and the writer seems to like being very wordy!

Ariadne's player is having real life issues so it's best to keep things moving and not wait for them to post. They will hopefully catch up with us.

Traveling again. Should be back to regular live on Friday.
Sorry, no time to update today.
Finally back home! Will get caught up and posting.
I've just found out I have an appointment tomorrow. So no update on Tuesday sorry.
@Kayleigh: According to the rules, unless you have a special ability (or GM fiat), diplomacy in combat will do nothing unfortunately. Changing attitude requires 1 minute of conversation and making requests require the target to be at least indifferent.
Sorry, board was down when I was trying to update earlier today.
Sorry, health not good. May be a day or two before I can update again.
Get some rest. Hope you feel better.
Update time on my condition.
Friday I had another Cardioversion as the one I had in 2023 didn't work properly, or my heart had relapsed?
This time I can really feel the difference, my heartbeat is steady and I have much more energy. So Monday back to regular updates.
One thing about the Cardioversion, it shocks your heartbeat back to the proper rhythm, it also leaves you feeling like you've been beaten up by Orcs. So I'm having a nice quiet weekend of lounging round and not moving much. :)
That doesn't sound pleasant at all sir! I am glad the rhythm is good. Not so much about the orcs though.
Yeah, they stick electrodes to your chest and then shock your heart till it behaves. You're under anesthetic while they do this so that part is painless.
It's when you wake up and they get you moving again you get to feel how battered you are. I was lucky and it only took one attempt to get my heart in the proper rhythm.
If they have to make several attempts then you better have to have arranged for someone to take you home. You're not driving in that condition. :)

If Vedika doesn't cast glitterdust, then Kayleigh's gonna cast sound burst! The thugs are practically begging to have an AoE spell dropped on them.
Sorry, too busy to update today.
It's again sorry.
Sorry, too busy today.

Gloomblind bolts with two party members with sneak attack is a wonderful choice!
It's pretty good, though I have to worry about precision (-4 firing into melee) and of course you can't normally sneak attack with damage spells.
.
I see your point, but one thing is player knowledge and another is character knowledge.
In character, I think we have no reason to believe this place is safe. We've found two freaking assassins in it and we know it was supposed to be burned down. You can hardly find a more "dangerous" place for us to crash and honestly, with Kayleigh having cool alternative in character, I don't see why we should ignore all that and go with the meta-knowledge our dear GM gave us.
Even if we face an additional random encounter to get to Kayleigh's flat, I'm cool with it and honestly we are far from spent in terms of resources.
Brig used her mutagen, so if we can rest, even if it slips past what our characters would be comfortable with, it would be good. More strength to beat up the bad guys is always good.
Yeah those of us with expendable abilities/spells would definitely benefit from resting.

I like the idea of visiting Kayleigh's flat, because it feels like it will drive more fun character interaction, and still give us the opportunity to get in that rest. As Zahur mentions, even if we have another encounter with street toughs on the way, we will probably be able to handle them and then get a rest that will let us be ready for the next step.
Also it will be hilarious to watch Kayleigh blush about trying to figure out sleeping arrangements.
Lol. Makes sense.. Also we don't gain the benefits of leveling until we rest.
