Apologies, been an exhausting few days. Sorry about not getting those heal taps in on you Quince.

I think we should rest at the hut, that fight took a lot out of us.


Male Human (Polish Jew/Native American/Irish) Techie 7/Martial Artist 2

Okay, the "Stays" have it.


Male Human Starving Artist 6, Cartographer 6, Babysitter 4

Call me Mal, dude. We've been friends for years now!

Anyway, she doesn't have anything to ask the eagle.

Will do man. Didn't want to blow your secret identity without your permission.


Can we see whats occurring through the trees?

1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 23

Peaking out, Quince can see two more came out, but he can't really tell they're archers at that distance. But he does perceive Djack jerk back when he's been shot, so it's easy to surmise something hit him.


Male Human (Polish Jew/Native American/Irish) Techie 7/Martial Artist 2

Is anyone wearing the Barkskin ring? It's usable for 1 Combat Scene per day and adds +2 Natural Armor. Djack suggested Yoltzin take it; anyone can use it.


Male Human Starving Artist 6, Cartographer 6, Babysitter 4

I would've loved to have actually made a shot that went along with his idea, but frankly I don't think I'd have hit even with a good roll. +3 is kinda sad as an attack modifier.


Male Human (Polish Jew/Native American/Irish) Techie 7/Martial Artist 2

Their AC is not amazing and you're inside 1st rank, but yeah, even hitting their FF AC would require slightly above natural 10 for you. Not undoable, but far from a sure thing.

I may have screwed that up of surprise is only one action.

It's all good. I've been treating it as full round in this instance. Normally, it would be, but I feel like the situation would have allowed your action. Plus rule of cool says Djill gets to kick down a startled humanoid now and again.


just FYI to the party, the barkskin ring is useless to Rocko, as he already has natural AC. I second giving it to Yoltzin

Description is fine, but might be more like he's not done this much at all... just spurred on (pun intended) by a visceral reaction.

I like going deep into the role play with Djack!

Fair enough. Hadn't been too long to edit so I reworded it for you slightly.


Male Human (Polish Jew/Native American/Irish) Techie 7/Martial Artist 2

Well done on the ambush. Those creatures would never likely have defeated you, but they could have caused significantly more damage in a direct fight. As it is they barely got two attacks in.


Human Male uRogue 4 | HP 38/41 | AC19/T14/F15 | Saves F+3/R+8/W+2 | Perc +8/+12 hidden-secret | Init +4

To clarify... tainted are the enemy/antagonists and the ~25 villagers are regular human (untainted)?


Male Human Starving Artist 6, Cartographer 6, Babysitter 4

How I saw it. Yoltzin is just big on purification through cremation in general, particularly in a place like this.

Correct


Male Human (Polish Jew/Native American/Irish) Techie 7/Martial Artist 2

Not to be macabre, but does anyone wish to search for items of value (other than food) in the homes, or do you want to leave them for whoever wanders upon the remains of this town?


Human Male uRogue 4 | HP 38/41 | AC19/T14/F15 | Saves F+3/R+8/W+2 | Perc +8/+12 hidden-secret | Init +4

Was gonna get to that after paying respects :)

Might be nice to find an mundane amulet of some sort to carry on knowledge of the village, so as not to be forgotten sorta thing.

Djack is superstitious/sentimental.


Male Human Starving Artist 6, Cartographer 6, Babysitter 4

Good thing to be in a fantasy world, I'd say.


Human Male uRogue 4 | HP 38/41 | AC19/T14/F15 | Saves F+3/R+8/W+2 | Perc +8/+12 hidden-secret | Init +4

Agreed! I'm going for that wide-eyed Tom Sawyer vibe in a fantasy setting.


Male Human Starving Artist 6, Cartographer 6, Babysitter 4

And I'm the definitely not playing a stereotypical noble savage archetype.

I'm for rest...


Human Male uRogue 4 | HP 38/41 | AC19/T14/F15 | Saves F+3/R+8/W+2 | Perc +8/+12 hidden-secret | Init +4

Yeppers, Handle Animal isn't a Rogue class skill, nor is Survival. I'm trying not to multi-class.

I could use a feat to gain additional Traits. Looking back, I used Savannah Child trait to get Ride Skill.

Eh... If it was a better role I might have petitioned to use the Ride skill, instead. Maybe because it's a mount's context.


Human Male uRogue 4 | HP 38/41 | AC19/T14/F15 | Saves F+3/R+8/W+2 | Perc +8/+12 hidden-secret | Init +4

Did Djack keep a ring of healing of some sort? 1hp per hour? I didn't write it down.

EDIT: Coppery Sphere.

Correct: coppery sphere (heals 1 hit point per hour when in possession)

It's no big deal. Djill is sort of part of your character, so I don't generally require rolls (though situations could come where I might). You just won't be particularly good with other animals.


Male Human Starving Artist 6, Cartographer 6, Babysitter 4

Right, yeah, I was holding onto that. But it can be passed along as needed.


Human Male uRogue 4 | HP 38/41 | AC19/T14/F15 | Saves F+3/R+8/W+2 | Perc +8/+12 hidden-secret | Init +4

You can have it... I was wondering if we topped off HP, last night (in-game).


Male Human Starving Artist 6, Cartographer 6, Babysitter 4

We definitely would've, as I had all my abilities last night.

Hi all, sorry for my quietness for the last few days. Work has hit like a truck recently. I'll get something posted tonight and I should be back to form midweekish.

Thanks for your patience.

Male Human Starving Artist 6, Cartographer 6, Babysitter 4

Much the same man, just different times of the week.


Human Male uRogue 4 | HP 38/41 | AC19/T14/F15 | Saves F+3/R+8/W+2 | Perc +8/+12 hidden-secret | Init +4

Do I need to roll Disable Device? Or still Perception?


Male Human Starving Artist 6, Cartographer 6, Babysitter 4

If you're able to disable magical traps, I believe you can roll. Though, not sure how you do when you're that far from the rune itself.

Djack Nymball wrote:

Good question. You have perceived the trap (I took care of that rather than asking for a roll). And you can, indeed, attempt to disable a magical trap, being a Rogue. However, the problem at hand is the distance. As such, I'll allow two options:

1. Disable the trap from the doorway: this is the harder but safer of the two options. It will have a higher DC. Of course, if you fail at this option, you won't be able to attempt the disarm again, and the party will be left to either postpone their mission or just risk the trap's effects.

2. Attempt to get closer without enabling the trap. This is the easier but more dangerous. It will require you to make an Acrobatics Check (DC 20) to avoid triggering the trap. If you miss it, you'll still be allowed the save vs the trap's effects. If you succeed, or if you fail but survive and are still able to move, you'll be able to make the check to disarm at a lower DC.


Human Male uRogue 4 | HP 38/41 | AC19/T14/F15 | Saves F+3/R+8/W+2 | Perc +8/+12 hidden-secret | Init +4

Option 2 please...

We can ignore that Perception or use the roll of 8 = 20 Acrobatics. Up to you, I don't mind either.

I only ask because we're within the edit window.

And it's not RAW but, would Danger Sense apply to the Acrobatics check?


Male Human (Polish Jew/Native American/Irish) Techie 7/Martial Artist 2

Unnecessary, I allowed that roll. you made it.


Male Human Starving Artist 6, Cartographer 6, Babysitter 4

Can I have given him a touch of luck to go, as he was jumping?

To use on the disable check? sure, I'll allow it.

Let's get this party STARTED! Scat's going down for realz... :)


Male Human (Polish Jew/Native American/Irish) Techie 7/Martial Artist 2

Woohoo!

Hate to take away from that, but I double checked RAW, and it says if you fail by less than 5 (which the first roll did) you can try again. I took the liberty, and Djack passed.

I don't now when it fell out of vogue... but, does anyone use the Message spell any more?


Male Human Starving Artist 6, Cartographer 6, Babysitter 4

I've seen it used a grand total of one time, during my entire pathfinder career. That I think was done by an NPC.

Once it became a Catrip/Level 0 with unlimited use... it's like having earbuds and walkie-talkies.

It is a pretty good use of a cantrip. That said, I've seen old school gamers use it most, for whatever that's worth.


Male Human Starving Artist 6, Cartographer 6, Babysitter 4

Can't say why I've never used it myself. Perhaps most of my games just never really introduce situations where it'd be useful.


Human Male uRogue 4 | HP 38/41 | AC19/T14/F15 | Saves F+3/R+8/W+2 | Perc +8/+12 hidden-secret | Init +4

Have the others joined Djack... or are they waiting for him to report back?

Sorry if I've held things up!
