The slides are now linked above. I have started play but left room in case any character introductions are needed.

Slide 2 has space to add your tokens in marching order for both single file and two abreast. There is also space for character notes.

Now is a good time to establish Standard Operating Procedures for things like exploration and doors. It is also good to discuss if your character has specific needs/desires, such as always leaving a charge lane if possible, etc.

I believe I have the permissions set correctly on the slides, now is a good time to discover if I need to fix anything.

Life is still challenging but I am glad to have the chance to enjoy this game with you and I will do my best to keep it moving at a steady pace.

Using MISFORTUNE and SAVING FINALE

___________

So team, I need to inform you all about mechanical stuff related to Xiao that affects all of you!

--

MISFORTUNE revelation - REROLLING ANY d20 ROLL BEFORE KNOWING THE RESULT

Misfortune (Ex): At 1st level, as an immediate action, you can force a creature within 30 feet to reroll any one d20 roll that it has just made before the results of the roll are revealed. The creature must take the result of the reroll, even if it’s worse than the original roll. Once a creature has suffered from your misfortune, it cannot be the target of this revelation again for 1 day.

The trickiest thing for everyone to keep track of in a PbP format is his Misfortune revelation. Basically, he can require anyone (including allies) to reroll a d20 once/day.
Caveats: it uses his immediate action (so it's not available when he's still flatfooted) and it has a 30' range limitation.

This means that
a) I can use it on you once/day per person;
b) but I can only use it once/round (since it uses my immediate);
c) so as an ally try to stay within 30' of Xiao if possible.

To my fellow players: In a PbP format, I think the best way to handle this is for you each to decide for yourselves if you want to use the ability and just be sure that someone else hasn't already used my immediate previously that round.

To the GM: With regard to foes, I'm fine with the GM reflecting the misfortune revelation against a foe, using the following priorities:
- Enemy attack rolls: If a foe threatens a crit against an player that has only 20 hp left then Xiao will immediate action misfortune the initial attack roll.
- Enemy saving throws: When they have to make a save and have rolled 13 or better on the d20 roll then Xiao will immediate action misfortune the save roll.

---

SAVING FINALE - REROLLING A FAILED SAVING THROWS

To fellow players: Saving Finale is a spell I can only use when I have a performance active but if you have already used Misfortune on yourself and fail a saving throw then this could help.

Caveats:
a) you must be within 30';
b) this also uses my immediate action, so it might not be available if I've already used it for Misfortune;
c) this depends on me having Bardic Performance up, which I will normally do.
d) In the case of Saving Finale, you can actually wait to see whether or not you failed (as opposed to Misfortune, where you only see the die roll, not the result), so this is a very handy bailout.

--

I hope this was understandable! :-)

Thanks to GM Abraham from whom I copied major portions of the text above as he is also using Misfortune with one of his characters.

Suggested Door SOP: Cade and Chunhua stand together before the door.

The entire party checks the door for traps -- assisting the highest roll.

If it's all clear, Cade (highest hp total) opens the door.

I'm playing in an AP via VTT at the moment. I'm playing a melee paladin and one of my online friends is playing a bloodrager.

The above is our "standard door opening SOP" It works really well because we both know that if one of the frontline partners gets into trouble the other one is always there to back him up.

I think this can work for Cade and Chunhua as well ;)


VC Australia - WA

As far as checking for traps, for a regular size door I would say you can have one primary and one aid. Unless there is a significant time issue, after checking and disarming then the front liners can take their place to open and defend.

It seems impractical to shuffle everyone through checking for traps and unless I am remembering incorrectly, the primary must be declared before rolls are made. If we establish who is the primary trap checker and who is aiding, then I can make those rolls (in the open) when you are proceeding through a door (or other relevant areas) and avoid delaying progress.

Totally makes sense GM! So we designate the person with the highest perception mod to check the door but could the others aid another by also looking at the door?

Sounds good. So how about Xiao Junior with a +8, as the Primary and Cade with a +7 as the Aid Anotherer?

Sorry, I was monitoring after dotting in, but life got busy for a bit as I started doing some home improvement stuff. Multiple runs to the hardware store, carrying concrete blocks around the yard by hand, and trying to do more stuff with the little one outdoors just left me drained by the end of the day when I usually do my posting.

I make our APL: 3 + 4 + 5 + 5 + 5 = 22/5 = 4.4, which is rounded down to 4 = LOW SUB-TIER, with Freddy, Xiao Junior and Dhovahk eligible for out of tier gold.

Have I got this right, GM?

Fine Print, if we were between Tiers:
Scenarios in Seasons 0 through 3 were designed for four characters. For these scenarios, if the APL is between subtiers, a party of six or seven characters must play the higher subtier.

Parties with four or five characters must play the lower subtier.

Are we still playing low sub-tier, GM Numbat?

If there is somehow a choice I would prefer the lower tier.

By my calculation, we are at 4.6 APL which rounds to 5. The guide says: "Scenarios in Seasons 0 through 3 were designed for four characters. For these scenarios, if the APL is between subtiers, a party of six or seven characters must play the higher subtier. Parties with four or five characters must play the lower subtier." Thus we should be playing down, despite what rpgchronicles says (I will let Phox know).

Apologies to all for the delay in game posting. I hope to kick it forward soon.

Scattered throughout this scenario are old faction missions but I believe they are no longer relevant. I vaguely remember that there is a list somewhere of alternate secondary success conditions. I will attempt to find that.

@GM Numbat, I have done some quick research on bath and barbering costs.

Baths are covered in 1e Ultimate Equipment. Say 1gp for a quaility Ardis bath?

There is nothing listed for a haircut. However, a nurse can be consulted for 7sp.

Now I would argue a nurse > barber, but maybe 7sp is close to the cost mark?

Whaddya think?

Thanks. Most of today was just driving around for the funeral, internment, and luncheon. An hour driving into the city, then a half hour to the cemetery, then repeat in reverse order on top of the event itself made me long for the days where I could just veg on the couch watching movies for the rest of the night. But at least it should quell the "discussions" of a large and very opinionated family for awhile :)

How does one take an AoO against a swarm, when melee weapons do not do AoE damage?!

I wasn't thinking, just trying to make sure I followed the rules. That line must be for the swarms of larger creatures where you can still do some melee damage. Or, you could wave your weapon ineffectively at them and use up your reaction so the next foe that appears from the darkness has a safe path in? ;-)

Cade, I would have allowed a move action to light the torch but the spell fizzled when the spiders attacked. Good news is, they are gone. I just need to catch up on the gameplay thread.

OK players, I need to prepare the chase scene and work out how best to run it in PbP.

I also have a writing deadline I need to make so won't have much time in the next few days to do the prep. I'll ping in Discord when I post.

Dhovahk - Does this mean he’s stuck for the next round, or just doesn’t move this round?

Just did not move this round. Had you attempted the fast move and failed both checks then you would effectively miss the next turn.

Xiao - GM, riding is a free action. It looks a little unfair to be able to take a standard action with Xiao and still move / progress with the riding dog in a CHASE. So I will do one or the other.

I concur. Xiao, do you have something that extends the range of hideous laughter? If not, I am reading you having a range of 35 feet (25 +5 per 2 levels). You would have been aware that even before he moved he was out of range. Do you wish to retcon this round?

I am interpreting it as a move action (that includes the check) to leave a square. You can do something else instead. But you can move and standard, or move and move, or full round action like normal.

A successful full round move attempt moves you three squares instead of two successful move actions for two squares. Plus you are attempting both the current challenges and skipping those on the squares you move over.

This is reinforced by the instructions for the Mauler that are provided for the GM which differentiates between a double move and attempting the full round version.
