[5e] Ghosts of Saltmarsh (Inactive)

Game Master Jubal Breakbottle

Rolling HP. Minimum Average HD +0.5

+2 ki points
+10 move speed (50 ft new total)
+6 hp (15 new max)

Average HD +0.5? So with a d8 HP class is that +4 or +5 HP? It's the +0.5 which confuses me.

Average of 1d8 is 4.5. Plus 0.5 = 5 HP standard

Hit points: 1d6 ⇒ 2

I would prefer Miminum Standard so I get 4 hp +2 con for 6 new HP

It is. Sum of 1 and 6 = 7. Then half of that is 3.5 average.

Then add 0.5 for 4 hp + con mod.

So with the Minimum Standard HP I would get +4 hp[+6 with Con, and 14 total hp]

Bladesinging:
-Gain Proficiency in one Melee weapon: Scimitar

Invoke the Bladesong:2/day(Proficiency Bonus time a day)

Gonna get a Suit of Leather Armor we have altered for Drusilla.

oh and can have 6 spells memorized and 3 spell slots

Hit points 1d8 + 0 ⇒ (1) + 0 = 1. Yeah, let's go with the 5 hit point minimum gain.

Level 2 cleric now.
Channel Divinity.
Divine Domain Feature. Knowledge of the Ages.
+1 first level spell slot. Thank god, I need that to keep you guys rolling!

I'll give Argyri another day.

Don't forget to plan. I can push to next day.

I would appreciate if someone would account the loot.

After spending 100 gp for a pearl tomorrow, you'll discover that

Hey, so sorry! This week really kicked my butt. I'll post today!

Just realized that comprehend languages (a ritual spell) works on written languages. Changing eyes of the rune keeper to a new invocation.

Beast Speech
You can cast Speak with Animals at will, without expending a spell slot.

Let’s put that charisma and persuasion to use. Also because my son insisted, so I really can’t say no

Just don't talk to the fish or crustaceans I catch Tarn and we will be ok

Tarn, one subtlety, not that it matters much is that comprehend languages requires you to touch the writing. Super rare of course to find a trap like that, and not worth changing back, just mentioning it. I've seen it in some published adventures.

I can run a spreadsheet for the loot calculations but not until later today.

@Blacklock: And if doesn’t require ritual casting. So it’s much more convenient…but as I looked through the invocations with my boyo and said he could pick the replacement, I’m now honor bound to it. :)

As for the magic items, who wants them? The pipe seems like something Blacklock would use.

——

Finally, I think we found plate armor. I don’t know if it is RAW, but could Tarn use the breastplate? And at Lvl4 he will get heavy armor proficiency, so he could then use the rest of it then? I think it would represent him learning how to properly don, wear and care for the armor over time.

Hit Points: 1d10 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4
Added 2 weapon fighting style.

Yes. You did. I would let you strip down to breastplate or half-plate. Both are medium armor.

Wonderful! Half plate it is! We can add my scale mail to the loot pile.

I think I have the loot all totaled, but not sure about price for Oilskin Coat or Rare Wine. Give me those and I can get the sum.

* fancy floor-length oilskin coat (5 gp)
* a rare vintage worth 50 gp to the proper buyer

Alright, here it is then using Drusillas list and ignoring the magic scale (claimed by Tarn) and magic pipe (claimed by no one).

Drusillia I am keeping the coat though

Thanks for all the hard work. As you said in the spoiler, claiming the plate for Tarn, not the magic scale armor.

Throwing in the Longbow, the quiver and the longsword

Ah right, thanks. So I guess both of those are up for grabs or we could go through the pain of trying to sell a magic item.

I don't really need to buy anything, unless healing potions are available in town.

Ok, Dru is keeping oilskin coat and scimitar, not Longbow, quiver, and longsword. New per player total:

145.68 gp

Blacklock are you doing a party fund too?

The amount stated is what each player receives if we are doing equal shares.

I mean, I don't know what you mean about 'party fund'. XD

The pipe seems like something Blacklock would use.

If none object, I will indeed take the pipe.

Basically giving the entire group a communal share. One to use to buy goods for the better meant of the group. Ie Lodgings, if we have a base later maintenance, Group potions etc.

Ah gotcha, well I don't need money at all so I'm willing to put my share in.

Blacklock, you should totally take the pipe...though Argyri may want to share it some day, once she has suitably epic exploits for it to illustrate.

HP: 1d8 ⇒ 3
HP 17
+ Cunning Action now.

I'll happily sell my leather, and buy some studded leather, with our earnings. Do we get 1/2 back on sold stuff? (If so, that's a net cost of 40 GP)

Need to double-check that you are selling the two other books found:
* A naval almanac listing tide times for the area of coast around Saltmarsh (a total of one hundred miles of coastline is covered)
* A treatise concerning the demigod Iuz and its minions

Blacklock confiscated the fully illustrated erotic poetry.

You also found an explorer's pack with the plate mail that I don't see on the list.

thanks

Ok, so with the 10 gp explorer's pack and assumption that 2 of 3 books are sold that makes the final per player amount 146.51 gp.

Id vote sell the dingy for a pearl then walk back and clear house.

Blacklock, you should totally take the pipe...though Argyri may want to share it some day, once she has suitably epic exploits for it to illustrate.

Deal, I won't bogart it. :)

With the money, I have that should give me enough money to research 3 of the 1st level spells to add to my book.

Hi playas

I'm leaving for a short biz trip until Wednesday afternoon. I'll be able to answer most questions from my phone, but won't be able to do a big post.

Please RP what you want to do next

cheers

So far I need to put Charm Person, Color Spray and Silent Image in my book,

And Next level Have Scorching Ray and Magic Mouth as 2nd level spells

Yes I am getting a nice pool of spells.

So, we're sailing back? I'll get a post up tomorrow night

cheers

Kwin would like to sell his mace (2.5 gp), short bow (12.5 gp), leather armor (5 gp) and hunting trap (2.5 gp). In turn, he’ll buy studded leather armor (45 gp), holy water (25 gp), two potions of healing (100 gp), and three days of modest lifestyle (3 gp). With his 146.51 share and 10 gp starting money, he’s left with 6 gp and 1 cp

GM, can you confirm that potions of healing are available somewhere in town?

Did Badger change his scale mail for the mariner armor?

I thought someone else had eyes for the mariner's armor but if not yes I will take it.

Do I have an opportunity to grab somebody and pullout of the way. Perhaps with a Dex Save? Or do I realize what it is after the fact?

Sorry, no. The drip was a surprise. The slime on the three needs to neutralized before it damages every round.

Anyone who goes into that area can Dex save DC 10 to avoid getting slimed themselves.

cheers

I miss Green Slime being taken out by Alcohol

[dice=Survival]1d20+3

Watching Badger snatch the torch from his hand, the kid quickly extracted vengeance by snatching Badger himself! "Take a boost, gramps!" putting him up on his shoulders and shoving his torch carrying arm closer to the offending patch.

[dice=Dex]1d20+5

Awesome!

In my head I pictured a blanket of green slime dropping from the ceiling on our friends and burning it would be sticking the torch right in front of us where the big green slime layer was over our friends.

I wasn't thinking its just dripping from a coat on the ceiling. That makes more sense. So yeah I'll need the boost. LOL

Heh, well you might be right and the whole thing dropped, but that seemed like fun anyways. :)

If I managed to stop the slime on myself, I can use sacred flame to try and clear it away.

OK. Please let me translate the game mechanics. Three characters have been slimed. Sunlight, any effect that cures disease, and any effect that deals cold, fire, or radiant damage destroys the slime. Or it must be scraped off; however, any nonmagical wood or metal weapon or tool used to scrape off the slime is effectively destroyed. Every round a character is slimed, they take 1d10 acid damage, so hurry.

To not get slimed, just avoid the area. It cannot move. It is not sentient. It is a hazard that can be avoided by going around.

Feel free to adjust your actions.

cheers
