Do we have any melee focused folks?

We have a fighter and a thaumaturge.

Done. do you want our day job rolls up front?

If you want, that is all up to you. I can certainly input them inot the Chronicle.

Performance Day Job: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11

2 Glyphs to share

I have run and played this before so I'll let those new to this take the lead. Also looking to improve on how I run it so I'll be taking notes... :)

Hey Webny! My sister Shayla's off minding the store. She tells me that you've adventured with her!

I had to double check the name when I first saw you post here. "I could swear she was a rogue..." :)

I rebuilt Webny after that last scenario. I was having a lot of trouble getting into the character, and then I received the Mwangi Expanse book as a gift. Thus, Webny is now a ranger from the Alijae!

Fisette was the first on on there.

I marked my campaign coin and starting hero point. I have one glyph to give.

Please forgive the newbie question: what does it mean to have a glyph to share?

Crafting for Woodworking Day Job: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13

She carves and sells small pieces of jewelry in the style of her homeland. She also hires herself out to help on any building projects where a trained woodworker would be helpful.

day job, lore: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19

Alright, I think that the big slow fighter finally has all of his paperwork turned in.

craft armor: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (7) + 3 = 10

Ah okay! I was sitting there scratching my head trying to figure out whos token that was. Thanks!

GM's earn glyphs for GM'ing games. At the beginning of a game they can pass out a number of additional hero points equal to the amount of glyphs. We have enough Glyphs at this table for everyone to start with 2 Hero Points.

Oh, cool. Thank you, GMs!

Shayla is a rogue. Her twin sister Shayna is a bard. Had a hard time coming up with backstories so the easiest was to make them siblings. The backstory I came up with is that for three siblings, the eldest, Francine, is a gladiator. Shayna is a Merchant, running the family business. Shayla is the younger twin being the ne'er do well... Of the three, Shayna is the responsible one :)

Done

I am realizing I inadvertently left off a language from Webny's character sheet when I rebuilt her (she should have 4 languages, not 3).

How does one gain access to an uncommon language like Abyssal for PFS play? Is that a Boon? Webny is a monster hunter who grew up cleansing ancient pyramids of creatures from the Abyss, so it makes narrative sense that she would know that tongue. I'm just not sure how to do that mechanically.

The easiest way is the Multilingual general feat.

Indeed, Multilinguial taken several times as a skill feat will open up all kinds of languages.

Tempting, but society is one of the only things Webny is not trained in. Might have to look at that.

Is there a way to unlock it as the last language she gets from her character creation? The core rules say I can take any common language or any uncommon language I have access to.

Many uncommon languages are surprisingly tough to access in PF2

If you played PF1 you potentially get access to some special backgrounds. Demon Slayer gives you access to Abyssal but requires you have played at least 5 Season 5 PFS1 scenarios.

I asked around elsewhere and learned that the Tiefling Boon also gives access to Abyssal now days.

So I think your choices are Multilingual, Demon Slayer or Tiefling for getting Abyssal.

Edit: I've also been told Grippli, Androids, and Goloma have it as an option from ancestry but I haven't confirmed.

Unfortunately you can only choose frm this common listing unless yu have something giving you access to uncommon languages.

Languages.

I may need to re-allocate a skill after this adventure to pick up society so I can take that skill feat.

That you could indeed do by spending 7 days of downtime to retrain 1 of your skills.

Or just use the free rebuild since they are still level 1.

Excellent. :)

Indeed, apologies. I wasn't even thinking of you being level 1.

Level 1 Rebuild.

I could not quite figure out how to add the appropriate macros for Webny's Outwit Hunter's Edge, which gives her a +2 bonus in a variety of situations. I settled on bolding it in the ooc text in her post. Does that work for you, GM?

Yup, that works. Thanks!

Sorry everyone, I've been sick lately. I'll try to catch up soon.

Achurius should be healed. (I can heal everyone except myself 4 hp every 10 minutes.)

Sounds good!

Much appreciated.

Regarding recall knowledge you can try again (at a higher difficulty) if your previous attempt succeeded to get more information. Once you fail you can't try again against the same creature.

Did Ronnie's readied action miss, or just his AoO? If a 27 misses, Ronnie is packing up and going home, lol.

Those both use your reaction to attack, so it's unlikely you could make both attacks. May also be missing my AoO on yellow with my flickmace depending on how it approached.

Oooh.

@Ronnie- Oh sorry for some reason I was looking at your AoO of a 12 to hit as your readied action. I thought your AoO was in the spoiler and flip flopped them. 27 defnitely hits. I was taking your readied attack over your AoO. Just looked at the wrong number.

@Norbwald- Yes, it did avoid your AoO going the direct route.

Np. I did do it kind of weird.

Sorry for the unplanned radio silence, team. Had a minor family emergency, but all is now well.

Hope everything's ok.

My guess is the creepers are going to put the darkness back up on their turn, so you might want to wait for Fisette to try to dispel the darkness before you take your turn next round.
