Yeah same here on all fronts! It would have been interesting.
I am super stoked to see how relationships pan out, where you will go next, and ways to get you stronger!
I am impressed by the posting rate and daily attendance of our new members. I can only hope Jean and Stratton can make a comeback too! ;)

Is this something Krysta and I do too?
No this is part of the reward for finishing the Daily Quest.
Which is something we need to do today I take it?

Jean will take:
[Stationary]Pen, sticky note pad, stuffed sloth toy
[Misc. Simple gear]Green marbled Dice set, Holy symbol of an unknown god with a series of four triangles interwoven
[clothing items] 2 hats (a beret and a fedora)
[Cleanliness items] scissors, finger nail clippers, toilet paper, Icy Hot ointment

Depends on if you accepted the quest, I think. Ramie decided not to as her physical stats are not high enough to take 10 to complete it reliably and there are consequences for failing to do so. But Krysta's in better shape physically, so it shouldn't be a problem for her.
Does Zaidel have darkvsion? I looked up Saytr and Subline with no darkvision.

You can accept the quest or not, that is your choice. You and Ramie have not accepted it yet.
This was back pay for the last week or more.

Jean you just got the key, now you have to find the chest!
So 11
Lvl 2 HP 1
Lvl 2 HP 2So 11
Ah! Is this our method, roll twice, keep best? I didn't see anywhere that spelled that out.
So it looks like Jean, Krazok and Jellena went straight for the boss fight... Do we get a lower level fight on the outskirts?
Yeah, Krysta asked in PM, its what I do in all if not most of my games.

Yup goblins are waiting for you!
So rendering an image was something of a humbling experience fraught with trial and error, lol.
But I finally got something I like that also looks like real me, or a somewhat dated picture of me anyway. XD
GM Wolf, in your opinion, should Zaidel sign up for the Golden Glade quests?
That is up to you. It would give you rewards if you have space for it. Also it seems like a good way to level up the newbies.
Can we retro Zaidel taking the Goblin Quests?
I feel like I am missing parts of Dragon Path Quest.
I need everyone to keep a list of the Quests you have as a current quest and then also completed, for example:
Current Quests:
Title Name I
Title Name II
Title Name IV
Completed:
Title Name III
I'm working on getting my full listing of quests up but before I do, I need a little clarification here:
"I know this sucks. But it beats the alternative: you get sucked into an undead-filled pocket dimension and you have to fight for your life for hours!"
Um... WTF? This is really the potential consequences of failing to complete the quest everyday, and it takes 4.5 hours to complete? o_O
My Str check is a -1, Dex and Con are only +2. It seems to me it would be very foolish to accept this quest until taking 10 will do the trick. I'm sure I'm missing something but I don't understand how I could possibly make this work?
Also I'm seeing different DC's listed under different character's spoilers? Is there a beginner version? Can someone spell this out for me please? XD
Yes. It's brutal. But once you get some more ability increases, it will be made easier.
Ok, got the quest stuff accumulated and added to sheet. Also included the url for recent posts that detailed quest info. Here it is:
1st Task: Kill or disperse 30 goblins. 30/30
2nd Task: Kill the goblin king and his hobgoblin henchmen. 1/1, 6/11
3rd Task: Dismantle the encampment. 1/1

Yes. It's brutal. But once you get some more ability increases, it will be made easier.
So I am very much taking a pass on this Daily Quest for now, but I will help Krysta.
What are the ways we can help? Aid another? I could help brace her feet and boop her forehead with a guidance for every sit-up... XD
Zaidel, you have the Inspire Competence performance, will that help?
Also what determines the DCs because they seem like they are different for different characters?

Yes you can speak with some of the Chosen who have failed to complete the Daily Quest. They get shunted off and have to run away from undead, land sharks, tremors, and other monsters for 4 hours.
The Quest might take even more than 4.5 hours a day. I remember it taking like 8 or 9 hours when they started.
---
The Boost system is the quickest way to get those stats up to par to take 10 on those checks. The Boost system is only available to Chosen who take the Daily Quest.
---
The basic DCs are what Jean did:
100 pushups Str DC 10: 1 hour
100 situps Str DC 12: 1 hour
100 squats Str DC 14: 1 hour
hour break (reset DCs)
100 jumping jacks Con DC 10: 1 hour
Run 5 K Con DC 12: 1 hour
All DCs start at 10.
One person can try to aid two people during an hour workout. DC 6 for a +1, DC 10 for +2, DC 16 for +3. Etc.
If you continue to make more checks without resting it increases the DCs by 2 each time.
If you fail a check and don't rest it increases the DC by 5 each time.
If you rest for an hour, the DCs reset. Resting takes an hour with only light movement.
Many magical bonuses can be expended at the beginning of the hour long work out. The lowest denomination is needed.
Guidance, 1 round of Rage, bull strength, inspiring bardic music for 1 round, etc.
You may decrease the time by increasing the DC by 5 or increase the DC by 10 and it only takes 15 minutes.
You may take a 10.
With many of us with enough ability now, this will likely be prominently used.
DCs start at 10.
If you don't rest the DC increases by 2 for the next check.
Then if you continue for every check afterward it increases by 2.
Offer up a sacrifice and then burn incense worth 100 gp x your new level. The ritual takes at least 4 hours. You can cut the cost by extending the ritual time.
8 hours = 1/2 cost
16 hours/whole day = 1/4 cost
Etc.
Suggested Offerings: A seed and the meal you plan to eat. “You take life and make life.”
So 3rd, 5th, 7th, etc.
Suggested Course for Ramie:
100 pushups Str DC 10: | Take 10, -1 Str, +1 Guidance, +2 Zaidel, and +2 Jellena = 14 | 1 hour
100 situps Dex DC 17: | Take 10, +2 Dex, +1 Guidance, +2 Zaidel, and +2 Jellena = 17 | 1/2 hour (This can be a Str or Dex check)
100 squats Str DC 14: | Take 10, +2 Dex, +1 Guidance, +2 Zaidel, and +2 Jellena = 17 | 1 hour (This can be a Str or Dex check)
100 jumping jacks Con DC 16: | Take 10, +2 Con, +1 Guidance, +2 Zaidel, and +2 Jellena = 17 | 1 hour
1 hour rest
Run 5 K Con DC Con DC 15: | Take 10, +2 Con, +1 Guidance, +2 Zaidel, and +2 Jellena = 17 | 1/2 hour
Start at 9:00 am, end at 2:00 pm. With a late lunch at 1:00 before your run.
Oh! Ok, that makes it much more doable. Now I understand the scary DCs, you guys are trying to complete faster.
So if you fail a check, you can still try it again, and even rest for an hour to get it back to DC 10. Is that right?
I guess this is why you need the rings that let you get by on 2 hours sleep, lol! Not enough hours in the day to work out and still get S#|+ done. XD
One person can try to aid two people during an hour workout. DC 6 for a +1, DC 10 for +2, DC 16 for +3. Etc.
Ok, so this part is an aid another roll? Do you need to use the same stat the person you want to aid is using?
|

Yes precisely, you could even make the DC 10 into DC 20 and get it done in 15 minutes... Something the dragon might do, but he hasn't sped through it yet at all.

Oh that is true but also we get as part of the Daily Quest Rewards: Status Recovery
So it basically is a lesser restoration spell which refreshes you. I use it normally about 10 or 11 pm, prepare my spells at midnight, spend time researching and reading, then about 5 head out for exercise.One person can try to aid two people during an hour workout. DC 6 for a +1, DC 10 for +2, DC 16 for +3. Etc.Ok, so this part is an aid another roll? Do you need to use the same stat the person you want to aid is using?
Yes this is how we can aid each other, or anyone else we rope in to help. Yes we use the same stat for each specific exercise.
Small adjustment to the rules, that I just noticed:
One person can try to aid two people during a workout session:
1 hour: DC 5 for a +1, DC 10 for +2, DC 15 for +3. Etc.
½ hour: DC 10 for a +1, DC 15 for +2, DC 20 for +3. Etc.
Yeah, that would have been useful to know. So Krysta would have taken the time to make sure she could get it all done. Obviously that won't help for a couple of those rolls very much. I just assumed the DCs I saw in the spoilers were the right ones. That's on me I guess.
I assume you can make another attempt at the ones you fail?

GM answered yes when I asked that. Also, the situps and squats can be Str or Dex based, so I think if Krysta takes 10 with her Str bonus, she'll be in better shape. Looks like the jumping jacks and 5k have to be Con, though. Jellena is also providing guidance (+1) and she and Zaidel have both offered aid (+2 each).
We'll probably need a primer on how the rewards work too. I saw Zaidel's post about spending boosts but it might as well have been Greek to me.

Greek lessons from a Satyr... I feel like Shakespeare must have written this scene already. Probably in his lost works. XD
Sure, Zaidel-sensei. Sign me up!

No worries it was your first time! Remember you can always ask questions here!
Yes if you fail you can always make another check, with or without rest.
Sorry folks school is starting again. I should get some time this weekend.

Yep, that's an ailment that is going around. Three weeks in on my end and I still haven't gotten my sleep schedule back on track, lol!
Thanks for the heads up! ^_^

I think we uncovered why the forums have been so silent lately.
Yes! Lack of sleep is one of the major factors.
Waiting on some response to the side scene with Jellena I believe, unless I missed it.
I'm a little unclear if we are with Zaidel and seeing what he sees, etc. It looks like the info was covered in spoilers I'm not supposed to open because I don't have the requisite skills.
You followed Zaidel using his skill checks so you can see what he sees. The satyr likely pointed the tracks out to the party.
If you are going off on your own, then no. But like Zaidel said, the party likely follows him.
Ramie, you okay? You haven't posted since last Monday. Everything alright?
Just a little busier than usual and at a bit of a loss for how to contribute. Still here, though.
By just taking part in the conversations, you are contributing. Zaidel is so pleased to have another bard on the team. PLEASE STAY!!!
Contributions R Us. I promise I wasn't flaking, I just had a lot pile up at once. Gameday prep, then some video game events I wanted to participate in because it was the last opportunity, then I took 3 teenagers to Six Flags and we stayed like 12 hours.
Basically, I have a fun-hangover. I'm Fungover. XD
Nice!!! That sure sounds fun! I have been stuck preparing for school and vegging out with my wife to try to unwind. I have been missing my muse and free time.
I just saw a tiktok that says to never give your name to a faerie. If you do, it will have power over you.
Sh|t.
Oh no! I don't think that applies to fey though... well you just have a bonus versus it? Good luck!
Krysta. I think that was your plan but then chose to make them later. Thus the two black wishing stones in your possession. Also only half dragon is mentioned in your character sheet.
Zaidel did you accept the three newbies into your team?
Yes! If Jellena wants to hang with us nobodys, she can!
What are the bonuses from being in the group?
1. Gestalt
2. Access to Sublime template, use of a wish is needed
3. If Mia is in the area, shared wish bonuses
4. If Matthew is in the area, multiple super wishes, taking on his wish first...
What else?
A sublime creature uses all of the base creature’s statistics and special abilities, except as noted here.
CR: +2
Armor Class: Increase natural armor by +2.
Speed: Increase all the base creature’s natural speeds by 10 ft.
Special Defenses: fast healing (equal to Charisma bonus); Immune magic aging, disease, positive energy damage; Resist Negative Energy 10, increase the base creature’s Cold and Electricity resistance by 10.
Special Abilities: The sublime creature gains the following special abilities.
Ageless: Though the sublime creature is not truly immortal, it does not suffer the ravages or negative affects of old age. Upon reaching maturity, sublime creatures gain Intelligence, Wisdom and Charisma as normal for a member of their species, but are otherwise unaffected by the passing of time. Sublime creatures never die of old age and they are immune to any spells or effects which cause aging.
Channel Positive Energy: The sublime creature may channel positive energy as a cleric. Substitute the creature’s racial HD (minimum 1 for creatures with no racial HD) for cleric level to determine how effectively the creature can channel. If the creature has actual cleric levels (or other class levels which grant the ability), the creature’s racial HD and relevant class levels stack when determining the effect of the channeling.
Positive Energy Affinity: The sublime creature’s affinity for positive energy is such that it is immune to any damage caused by positive energy effects or attacks. Additionally, any healing spells, or other effects, derived from positive energy are doubly effective when applied to the sublime creature (roll as normal for the effect, adding any bonuses such as those derived from class level, and then multiply the result by two).
Strong Life-force: In addition to its Constitution modifier, the sublime creature also adds its Charisma modifier each of its HD when determining hit points.
Abilities: Increase from the base creature as follows: Strength +2; Dexterity +2; Constitution +8; Intelligence +4; Charisma +8.
Feats: Gain Toughness as a bonus feat.
Skills: +4 racial bonus to Diplomacy.
