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

Game Master chadius

Keep going in a clockwise direction whichever location is next.

Seconded.

If the wheel you are referring to is the sign, Gregor stated he thought we should take the sign as well as the armor. It was a bit unclear on how many actions could have been taken. Nal did not take an action during the first round and only posted after Gregor completed the Religion check asking if anyone had Society. I thought we would have been given a chance to search as Nal took the second 10 minutes to do a Society check but you said we finished our investigation. Everyone else could have searched at that time, correct? That's why I asked if there was nothing further. Gregor would have searched as there was a lot of overturned tables & debris creating barricades.

Is going back going to add additional time or can we retcon that?

Sorry about that, Gregor, I forgot about that.

You are able to take the armor and the wheel without spending additional time.

Are we able to continue searching?

Yes, you can search multiple times, but each attempt usually takes 10 minutes. So there's a balance between searching everywhere versus searching thoroughly.

Harsk, when you get a chance: Can you state which character you'd like to apply credit to? Just go to the >Sign Up< page and click on the "Sign Up" button on the bottom of the page.

It's that time again. 2 Hero Points are up for grabs.

Please nominate 2 people who should each earn a point. You can post it openly, or spoiler it, or PM me directly. I'll make a decision within 48 hours.

I vote Ranzak and Gregor.

@GM chadius: Will you tell us at the end where each of the people could've been found and all that? If not, I'll accept it without giving you a hard time.

Is there anyone down on Hero Points? They should get theirs replenished.

Gregor and Topias.

Gregor and Ranzak

Yes, I'll definitely mention what was missed. This scenario has a ticking clock but it also has a lot of timesinks.

You have found clues about 4 Pathfinders so far:
- Larraz Virtanne, he's still alive and following you.
- Bryrigar Hassen, you have his wayfinder and you found a body nearby.
- Gibb Potsmasher, you found a wayfinder and a charred body nearby.
- in the town plaza, you pulled out a wayfinder from the zombie horse's throat after you defeated it and several humanoid zombies. The wayfinder belonged to Clement Marten.

You also found a dead scholar outside the college, but no clues to their identity.

Gregor and Topias for hero points.

Even is Ranzak, Odd is Topias: 1d2 ⇒ 2

Gregor and Ranzak, have a hero point.

We are almost done with this scenario. Please feel free to roll for your downtime activities.

Make sure your character details are all set. I won't be able to make the chronicles or report the game if they are incorrect.

Nal's information in RPG Chronicles is correct. At the beginning of the scenario, she purchased a Weapon Potency Rune for 35 GP, so her current GP is 60.61.

Downtime:

Nal spends some time hanging out in the seediest places, listening for leads on where thefts are being planned. She then approaches the targets to offer them her services as a security specialist.

Underworld Lore: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6
Crit failure

It doesn't go so well.

Ranzak performs Acrobatic tricks to earn coin.

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21

DC 14 Undead Lore to Earn Income: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
The undead must be laughing at her now.

As a reminder, in second edition you usually do not have an Attack of Opportunity unless you are a >Fighter< or you have the >Attack of Opportunity< feat, or some ability that lets you spend your reaction on an AoO.

The Skeleton champions do have AoOs, so they can punish you for moving around them or casting somatic spells within their reach.

DC 15 Demon lore: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8

Earn Income with Medicine: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16

Lore: Scouting: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16

I'm just rolling Downtime for the GM. Don't mind me!

I've generated your chronicles. Please click >HERE< to download them and check for accuracy.

If they look good, please say so. I'll report them once it looks good to everyone.

I just found out that we were playing the game in the high tier (Level 3-4) and the level 1 characters luckily managed to survive the game without the level bump.

Anyway, I would just like to note a minor detail to change. Could our GM change the event name PbP Gameday IX into PbP Gameday XI? Everything else looks good.

I used Tanning Lore too for income.

But otherwise is good.

Thank you for the corrections. Please check >HERE< for the updated chronicles.

Thank you for running. Chronicle looks good.

My Chronicle looks accurate. Thanks again, GM chadius!

Chronicle looks good for me.

Thank you for running, GM Chadius! Great gaming with everyone!

Spoilers, for those curious:

Thank you for sharing!

Thanks for the adventure. Ranzak is buying a mace in case she runs into any more skeletons or anything else that requires bludgeoning damage.

The game has been reported. I'm not totally sure when you'll get the credit, since this is a special.

I'll close this campaign by the weekend. Feel free to send any questions my way.
