[PbP Gameday XI] GM Chadius 1-03: Escaping the Grave (Gameplay) (Inactive)

Game Master chadius

(I'm awake between 8 am to 10 pm EDT (UTC-4 hours) so roughly 1300 to 0300 hours, GMT.)

Howdy. If you're a member of one of my games, then here are a few rules I'd like you to follow:

PFS 2E rules

1. Please post at least once a day. If you are absent for 24 hours I'll send you a PM. If you're missing for 36 hours I'll mark you inactive and your Player Character will simply delay - that's not fun!

2. Under your name, please add a stat block, so I can quickly find your stats and keep the game moving. You can edit your character's Race, Class/Levels and Gender fields to include information such as:

- Hit Points
- AC
- Saving Throws
- Perception Bonus

3. What about Secret Rolls? Pathfinder 2nd ed has a lot of secret rolls the GM is supposed to make for the players, so the PCs can't react to a bad roll. Any skill with the Secret tag should be rolled privately. If I show the DC, feel free to make the roll openly. Otherwise, there are 2 ways to do this in my games:

- You can say which skill and which bonus you want to apply. (Example: "I use Occultism +5 to investigate the skull's mystic origin.")
- Or you spoiler your dice roll and everyone sticks to the honor system of not opening it.

If you haven't added Pathfinder specific equipment, I suggest you look at the >PFS 2 Society Rules<, in particular the Pathfinder Training section.

Once you have your character selected, please go to RPG Chronicles and post your character's details there >Sign Up Page<

I confirm to play this game with this character.

Hello all. Nal here is a sneaky rogue who's got a bit of a mother hen thing going on. Her goal is to make sure her team stays safe. She likes to scout ahead of the group so she can warn them of danger. That said, her personality isn't warm and fuzzy; rather, she comes across as all business, with a flinty voice and little in the way of facial expressions.

Confirm

Confirming.

Thank you for checking in, everyone.

If you can add your character to the >RPG Chronicles< sign up form (with the character who will get credit,) that will help me generate chronicles once we finish. I see most of you have done so already.

Confirming, my time zone is UTC +2.

Tigercat playing Ranzak the Dark here. Female goblin rogue with a wayfinder she bought. This is her third adventure.

Just checked and listed Ranzak's XP and chronicle wrong. XP is 4 and this is only her second adventure. Got those confused with Trisha.

Thanks for checking in, everyone.

Harsk, do you know which PC you will apply credit to? Once you figure that out, please fill in the >RPG Chronicles< details.

I arranged everyone in a suggested formation with 1 and 2 row formations.
Open >Slide 2< and feel free to edit your position (it will also tell me you can edit the slides.)

I am good with my position in the formations. Thank you.

Well, I can at least move my token. Usually I can't move it or it changes size and shape. I'm good with being in the back row.

I am good where I am & can move the token.

Thanks for checking in, everyone.

Harsk, do you know which PC you will apply credit to? Once you figure that out, please fill in the >RPG Chronicles< details.

He's a version of the pre-gen I "made" up like a PFS 1e character of mine :)

I'm using my campaign coin as a boon.

Nal prefers to Scout during exploration, so she'd like to be towards the front of the group. Does anyone want to trade with her?

I can edit the slides.

My wife and I are out of town till the 13th for our anniversary so I might miss till then.

No worries, Harsk.

We begin on the 11th of September. I may be on a flight for a business trip, but I should have internet.

See you then!

We'll begin briefing in a little less than 24 hours.

And we're off!

>Gameplay thread< is active.

At the top of the page, underneath the map, is the dossier of the Pathfinders last seen in Goldenflame before the Whispering Tyrant's army invaded. We'll cross their names out as you find them.

You all begin with 1 Hero Point. Now is the time to purchase equipment and get your free PFS item (default is some kind of healing potion.)

Nal's school item with be 2x minor healing potions.

She'd like to put a Weapon Potency +1 rune on her shortsword for 35 GP.

I haven't read the Gameplay thread yet, so she may buy more. I'll have to catch up there later tonight or tomorrow morning.

Has anyone heard from Harsk? I'll ping the player later tonight. Their character will the Challenge Rating of encounters from here on out.

Sorry I was away for my anniversary.

Oops, I forgot about that, Harsk. I hope you had a good time.

I have Deception +0 and Stealth +1.

Deception +7
Stealth +9

Ranzak has Deception +4 and Stealth +7.

Deception and stealth both untrained (Dex +3 and Cha +2).

It looks like Nal Bagura has the best shot at deception. Everyone else make the stealth checks.

Being a Ranger, Harsk should have the skills for Challenge 3. If not Gregor has +7 Nature & Survival.

I have untrained Nature +3, and trained Survival +6.

Ranzak has Nature+0 and Survival+3.

Acrobatics +9
Nature +8
Survival +1

I peeked at Harsk's character sheet. He has Survival +10. I nominate Harsk to make the Survival check.

Okay, time for some hero points. I have 2 hero points to offer.

Please nominate two people. You can post them openly, or in a spoiler, or you can message me with your picks. Let's make a decision within 48 hours.

Nal and Topias both used up our Hero Points, but we weren't particularly heroic.

Gregor's been on fire though. (metaphorically)

Even though they are Hero Points for heroic actions, I think the two who used them should have theirs replenished.

Sorry for the delay. My wife was/is sick and I was busy over the weekend.

Gregor and Nal for the hero points.

Harsk, sorry your wife is sick. Hope she feels better soon!

Nal and Topias, have a hero point!

Thanks everyone!

Harsk, sorry your wife is sick. Hope she feels better soon!

Thanks! She's recovering.

Gregor votes for the Chapel.

Ranzak votes for the Chapel.

Ditto.

Armory next sounds good.

Yeah, sounds good.

Ranzak has crafting +1.

Harsk, Gregor, Ranzak: You could try a Survival check to safely remove the mold from the food stores, or you could try hitting it.

Do you need just one survival check or will it take multiple successes to pass? I'm guessing a combination of successes between the checks & hits?

Just one Survival check will do.

o.O ... Hold your breath if you hit it.
