Redelia's Wardens of the Reborn Forge (Inactive)

Game Master Redelia

My prepared spells are listed in the charlist. I rarely change them. Paladin stuff )) And I also bought some potions.

Ready to go!

Been ready. Someone mentioned movement earlier. Everyone have a way to fly (or other locomotion issue)?

Yep.

I have air walk (communal) for all of us. Should I just worry about myself and take regular air walk and choose a different 5th level spell?

Air Walk is in many ways better than Fly, due to not needing Fly checks. That DC 20 to ascend straight up isn't a given.

And, you don't crash to the ground if you go negative, I believe, whereas most GMs rule that you do with Fly.

So Communal Air Walk would be appreciated.

I am working under the assumption that, since we were sent by the Society to help, the Society has already negotiated with the Minister.

And that arrangements have been made for the Society to provide us the ludicrously generous rewards that Pathfinders (especially of our level) get for completing missions.

It might be good to know that in character, however.

Right. I hope that is part of our disconnect Ranalus. OOC I know we will be rewarded at some level and asking for more reward really does not work. But there is often aid in the form of an item loan available and sometimes only if asked for. And I strongly believe my logic that if the Minister is invested in our success he would certainly want to help us with any aid he could manage. And lackluster support for the mission could be a clue. But I recognize that while this makes good sense it might not be provided for in the scope of the module.

I do have to say in all my years of play I have never had another PC attack my PC in such a way. Despite what you seem to imply Slash has not asked for any payment, has not suggested that he will not help without payment or a loan of items, and has not bargained in any way. You seem to imply all three. I was the one who asked if we were sent by the society as well. I feel your IC response is out of proportion, unfriendly, and damaging. Should I just shut up and roll dice when called to do so?

I don't agree that making such a request is either appropriate or necessary, but you do what you want.

Again, in all my experience of playing I have never engaged in this behavior towards the "quest-giver" NPC. Not when defending the Blakros Museum or the Golemworks or anything else. I might have seen other PCs try it once or twice to no avail.

Clearly your experience differs from mine.

I'm also not intending to drag this out, but when other PCs address mine, I will respond. When Arush takes your side and asks me to be okay with it, I feel it necessary to explain why I cannot just shut up and get with the program. When Rogar asks my approval on something I clearly do not agree with, I feel I should respond.

Ranalus is just going to keep on saying "I disagree, but do what you want" on this topic if anybody addresses him directly.

Otherwise he will not comment any more on this topic.

You know, the loan of an item is likely not even an option provided for in the module. Since Slash is a trade prince and a member of the exchange I was attempting some RP. Perhaps our GM can simply move us past this?

I'm happy to move on, but I needed a while to cool off first from my reaction to Slash's 'request.' A reply too soon would not have been helpful at all.

Arcturus, cool post! Made me smile ))

Arcturus, cool post! Made me smile ))

Aww. Thank you!

Did we lose our GM? Just waiting for an update or push post.

Sorry; I've been exhausting myself trying to resolve an issue with a medical insurance company. I will update later today.

No worries. I don't start worrying I've lost a GM until at least a week, usually two.

People get busy.

Yeah, no worries. Take your time. I'm in no rush, just a heads up that there's a delay is good.

Just a little FYI, I don't own a computer so I do everything from my phone, even the maps/slides. I'm having a bit of trouble zooming in so small on the map. I hope nobody minds, but, I may need to ask for help moving my PC token in the future.

On a related note, I am unsure how to create a token for the map?

@Arcturus, I can move your token if needed.
@Slash, I made you a token.

Thanks! Still, I'd like to know how... :)

Just a reminder that Fendel and Slash have Trapspotter.

Fendel also has constant See Invisible.

Thanks! Still, I'd like to know how... :)

Copy and paste your icon picture into the Google Slides doc.

Select the image. That should open up more toolbar options. There is a "mask image" drop-down attached to the "crop image" button. That lets you apply a shape pattern to the image (circle in this case).

Nope. Not on Firefox on my Mac. hmm. Has to be a way. I will research it.

Thanks

I just realized that we had a cap of 35.5 XP. Fendel completed Eyes of the Ten and is already 13th level. So, I believe I will have to bow out of this module. I thought it was for levels 12-15.

Sorry for any confusion.

Fendel, I believe you can still play, you just can't get the fourth bonus chronicle sheet.

As long as you're level 11 to 13, with a max of 35.5 XP, you can do the Seeker Arc option.

"In addition to the legal ways to play described above,
Wardens of the Reborn Forge can be played as a special
challenge for Seeker characters—12th-level characters
with 33–35.5 XP. The PCs play through the entirety of
the module, observing all the rules of Pathfinder Society
Organized Play; however, the PCs earn the module’s
Chronicle sheets as they complete those parts of the
adventure. When the PCs complete the entire module,
they receive the fourth Chronicle sheet in addition to their
other rewards. This is the only way to receive this fourth
Chronicle sheet, though a GM who runs the entire module
and applies all three of the first Chronicle sheets to the
same character may also apply the fourth sheet to that
PC. If a PC receives credit for a different adventure before
completing Wardens of the Reborn Forge using this option,
he forfeits the opportunity to earn the fourth sheet."

So no, unless you can point to somewhere that states otherwise, to get seeker acr credit, you must be level 12.

However, there is no reason we can't mix some characters doing the seeker arc option with some doing normal PFS mode. That allows levels 11-13 at the start.

I have always held exactly the same opinion as the GM. It was for this reason that I kept Arush at level 12 exactly - to play the Forge as a seeker's adventure. But something could have changed in these few years))

Ah. I must've misunderstood something I read. Yeah, normal option is for levels 11-13 and Seeker Arc is strictly 12th. I'm fine with having a mix of Seekers & non-Seekers.

Yeah Fendel, can DEFIANTLY play for credit for the PC. (just not the last chronicle) So I'd want to include him.

Absolutely.

@Ranalus: How do you get +7 to your armor with magic vestment? I thought MV doesn't stack with magic armor. And are you casting it twice to get both armor & shield?

I'm going to leave this paused for a day or so to see if we've lost Fendel or not. If we have, I'll reach out to someone else who applied to try to complete the party.

I'll send a PM tomorrow to Fendel's player if there's no response here before then.

@Arcturus - Right, it doesn't stack with armor and shield. They are +1 base, and the spell gives a +3, so it is a net +2 to each (yes, casting it on each).

AC is 28: +9 armor (+6 base, +3 MV), +4 shield (+1 base, +3 MV), +4 Dex, +1 Insight

I think Arush had intended to cast Shield Other which would give +1 Deflection. Shield of Faith is +4 deflection, and I have it prepared twice, but it doesn't last very long. Will probably cast it once we hear signs of activity.

I'm still here. I mean, Alkenstar is his home town after all.

Holy cow. Ok. I gotta put Magic Vestments link in my profile. That's a good spell to have.

Yay! Fendel is gonna stay!

Please only apply if you can commit to one post a day, one post a weekend, for a long game; it is possible a module this long may take the better part of a year.

Just wondering... Is this not a "one post per day" game anymore? It's okay if it isn't, I would just like to know since it will go long being a full-length and high level module.

Also, I'm in US Mountain time (Denver, CO). I've noticed there would be no posts for a day, but, then all of a sudden, lots of posts during the time I was asleep. So it might just be a continental time difference thing.

+1 to the question above.

It's not one post a day, and was not advertised as such. It's one post a day, one post a weekend (weekend being Friday-Sunday)

Please provide me with the information for your chronicle sheets here. You do not need to roll day jobs, but let me know if you have one.

Mine is Here.

I think we all already provided that.

I understand it's possible you may have provided it somewhere else; please provide it here so it is easy to find when I'm filling out chronicles.

They are all on Page 1 of this Discussion thread.

Thanks, team.

(yes, I'm rather distracted right now. I'm having a major issue getting medical supplies to ship in time to take care of my child. I've been dealing with this for two weeks now. It's bad enough that I fell constantly physically sick. I'm sorry if that is making this game less fun right now.)

I am very sorry to hear this and I wish everything to get better as soon as possible. This is just a good reminder to me personally that when someone behaves a little strangely in a PbP game, it is not yet known what happens to him IRL. Thank you very much for sharing and once again I sincerely wish that everything will get better for you and your child.

So sorry you're having a difficult time, Redalia.

I'm fine waiting a few weeks to get this underway instead of having you go through all the stress and being flustered running this game.
