Game Master Tea's Lions of Katapesh (Inactive)

Game Master Mr Tea

Hello! Welcome to my table. Before we start, please do the following:

Please complete the macros linked at the top of the page. This will be used for initiative and secret rolls.

Please also post your token to the slides and post your position in the marching order. The slides are also linked at the top of the page.

As per the Organized Play Foundation Community Standards, each player must decide if they will allow their characters to be damaged by friendly fire (usually via splash damage). I need to remind everyone that damaging a PC who doesn't give consent will generate infamy.

My expectation is that players will post at least once per day (once at the weekend) unless something important in 'real life' stops them doing so. Please inform the table/me if this is the case (PM if you would like) and we will either bot you/carry on/pause as is necessary.

You can post downtimes in this discussion thread.

Dragon Lore Task level 1 Earn Income DC 15: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21 1.6gp

Hi all, will give a full and proper IC intro once we get rolling. But in the meantime mechanic wise- Torrent is a 3rd level magus with champion dedication. She'll be in the frontline wearing full plate to make up for her 8 DEX.

Also have 4 glyph hero points to give out.

GM - What is your understanding on Arcane Cascade?

Friendly fire is fine as long as I'm not dying or in danger of doing so. Also I might as well get it out of the way now -- I'm not a bird. Quickblade is human. I just liked the tengu icon :)

Torrent, we're on the same side this time :)

Just for full disclosure, I've played this before. So I'll let those who are playing this for the first time take the lead.

I shall have a look at Arcane Cascade. I'm pleased to see an Azarketi - my first non-common PC is likely to be one.

Looking at Arcane Cascade, it would stop itself working! I'm sure that it should work until you can't make melee strikes any more.

I also think so, that Arcane Cascade ends when you can't strike anymore.

Then I've also 1 glyph to pass. So we may perhaps all begin with 2 hero points.

I've also played it several times and run it as well.

I myself have two glyphs to hand out, so we have 7 extra hero points?

Performance: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27

I also have a horse, with my cavalier dedication.

Crafting: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8

No glyphs... yet...

Can only give out 1 per person for the glyph hero points, and then some boons let you get another.

So we'll all start with 2 hero points. Torrent has a campaign coin to start with a 3rd that anyone can use for a reroll

Earn income, task lvl 0, Herbalism lore:1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27 Woot a crit

Yes, I think so that we have 7 extra hero points. So everybody begins with 2 hero points and one even with 3 hero points as Torrent said.

Not quite what i said. To be more clear- The rules for gm glyphs state "A player cannot gain more than one additional Hero Point from glyphs."

So everyone starts with two hero points (we each get the max of +1 from glyphs). Then to get a third hero point you'd need a boon (Torrent has a boon for a third hero point.)

2 Glyph GM here.
What redeux said.
Down with friendly fire.
Working on Links now.
=)

As all the PCs are checked in, I'm going to get started. 6 characters, lower tier, 18 points (assuming Maruta is 3rd).

MISSION PREP

GM Glyphs: Two; to Jing and Quickblade
Achievement Boons: Practiced Medic, Protective Mentor, Sprite Ancestry
Chronicle Boons: Traveler of the Spirit Road (□□□)
Daily Preparations: Temporary Talismans (2/day) to Jing (Potency Crystal) and Quickblade (Owlbear Claw)
School Item: Minor Healing Potion (x2) to Vilmer and Torrent

Maruta is Level Three, yes - also, I have both Played and Run this Scenario before

Gm Glyphs: 4; to the remaining 4 PC's that can benefit from them
School Item: 2x minor healing potion

Have also GM'ed and played this before

I think Vilmur and I were switched in Initiative.

I also think so but I wait to play.

Yes! Apologies! Flip it around! Vilmur is up!

Whilst I am going to use the maps as presented, I feel the scale is wrong on the camp map.

It's a goblin camp not a human camp! I dunno, I always thought the scale was off too.

I think the big issue is that most maps are drawn that you're viewing them from like 90 degrees down, and this one its angled.

and for the record, the last time I played this I had to burn my hero point to not die... :)

Long day!

Posting now...

Edit: Minions do not normally get Reactions - GM's call - commited to summon either way!

I'm loving the eclectic mix of PC options in this group! I wasn't really aware of the Spirit Object spell before!

Baba Yaga is great ! Glory to Baba Yaga!

After you have spoken/prepared, place your tokens anywhere behind the yellow line on the new map please. I am happy for you to chat before you do.

Apologies but I can't resist -- if we cross the yellow line are we in danger of getting clobbered by the subway train? :)

It's not just underground stations here. My local station has it too.

Posting now!

As things are coming to an end (just the return to camp!), please make sure your rpg chronicles entry is accurate :)

Chronicle is ok. It appears I rolled downtime when I first dotted in...

I will report the game and post chronicles here in the next day or so. Thanks everyone for playing. I really enjoyed the characters and your contributions.

Have the chronicles been sent?

No, sorry. Friday and Saturday have been very busy for me. I will hopefully sort it tomorrow.

Euh I should need the chronicle for a game on thursday EU-time. Do you think it will be possible?

Sorry for the delay. Chronicles here!

Chronicle looks good! Thanks for running this!

Looks good! THanks for running the great game!

Also, i found it amusing when filing my chronicle away into digital storage: this was my -2014's 14th chronicle playing 1-14.

Thank you! And thanks for running as well.

Chronicle looks good.

Thanks for running the scenario.
