Quentin's 3-17 Dreams of a Dustbound Isle (Inactive)

Game Master Quentin Coldwater

Yeah, I figured it was another "to understand X, lookup J, then follow that to Q." *chuckles*

Yup, hehe there are a few items that aren't the clearest. Unfortunatly unless it says you can choose or gain access to something, whether it be a language or a weapon, of uncommon or greater quality then you have to stick with the choices you character has access to.

Sorry, long weekend and am battling a cold.

Get better soon, Atae.

Whereas I had a very long week last week (60+ hours of work, very little good sleep, back muscle spasms) so I hope I wasn't too short with anyone. Apologies if so.

Atae - feel better soon!

No worries Iceman. Like I said, I bought one for a PC of mine to learn Shadowtongue as it seemed like it would be useful for Season 3. But someone pointed out that it didn't give me access to the language.

What do we have for light? I could get a level 4 scroll of light.

I have the light spell.

GM, Rain in Cloudy Day gave us two Moderate Healing Potions. Is that for each PC or in total for the group?

Similar questions with the Dust of Appearance.

Aerin has light prepared, but it is of lvl 3. He has low-light vision.

I could learn and prepare Darkvision lvl 2 but it is only for 1 h :(

Mechanical explanation of the warning: All light ranges are halved. A regular Light spell will cover only 10 feet, while a heightened version will get you 30 feet. Maybe a bit of a spoiler, but I'd like you to know what you're getting into.

The potions and the Dust are for the group, total. So two potions, one dust.

I am pretty good at healing, even with the versatile font, but any back up healing would be appreciated.

Good point about the light limits. Will add two moderate darkvision potions to my shopping list.

I've got a couple spontaneously heighten-able Heals and am an expert at treating wounds.
And can gain fast healing for myself with a focus spell.

Just realizing that her innate light is just "You naturally shed light as a torch." Not the spell, not heightened. Probably very ineffective here.

Full disclosure: this hazard is weirdly described. It never actually mentions the quicksand rules, but it does literally say "creatures in the area sink deeper into the dust as statues grasp at them."

There isn't a GM thread for this scenario yet, so I can't quickly look up an answer, but I used common sense for this hazard. If people think it's too harsh, please say so and we'll just ignore the whole quicksand part.

Howdy folks. I'll be in New York City for a week, returning home on Sunday. I should have internet access throughout the week.

What would the difference be between a religion check and a Calistrian Lore check?

What would the difference be between a religion check and a Calistrian Lore check?

One involves cassocks the other involves corsettes.

lol. I miss my cassock sometimes.

I have a choir cassock and cotta that I wear on Sundays.

I had a job interview yesterday!

How did it go?

I think it went well, I was in there for 45 minutes.

Good luck!

Gracias!

Good luck, you got this!

FYI: I am having cataract surgery on Tuesday.

You've got a lot going on, lately.

Good luck with the cataracts surgery!

Life is busy!

Well, here's to a quick and painless procedure.
Successful, too! :)

Thank you. The first surgery is on my left eye where I have had 2 retinopathies during the shut down. Depending on the lighting I can see what it looks like when you are defrosting your car, strippy that way.

Yeah, good luck with all of the above! Fingers crossed for happy endings!

Surgery went well. Thank for your well wishes!

I know this is sort of metagamey, but we were given dust of appearance for a reason. Could it be that the writing we are looking for is disguised by illusion magic?

Well, you do have an empty Invisibility Potion... :)

I had forgotten

Potion should wear off pretty quickly. But using the dust sounds like a decent play.

Well, you do have an empty Invisibility Potion... :)

Which I don't see how that follows. How would the writing on the monolith drink a potion?

*Waggles fingers in front of face.* Dream magic!

But yeah, I get your point. The empty potion should be a clue that something is invisible, but by RAW that can't be an object. It's a bit of a stretch.

will be homw soon, finished with an interview.

I think I missed one save, what does that mean to miss a save v. confusion?

Rules are HERE. You use all your actions to attack a random target with strikes or offensive cantrips (note: cantrips only, so you don't waste spell slots on this). You can use other actions to make this happen, such as moving to hit someone in melee range and the like.

Yellow is prone due to the crit specialization effect.

can i heal myself?
How does this work with non hurting of the party members?

Confused and controlled don't violate any pvp restrictions, since it's out of your hands.

And I don't think you can heal. Confused is All Offense.

It seems that there was a complication in the surgery, the device that is used to hold the eye open seems to have scratched my cornea. I have a contact on to help it heal and will see what happens tomorrow at the next check up

Thank you, we do get a save every round don't we?

A new save, yes, but only against the ones you have not succeeded previously. Once you do save, you're immune for a minute (or more).

Yes, as Raindrop said. One save and you're fine versus that creature. You'll need to save again next turn, but only once.

Also, I hadn't responded to you at all, I'm sorry. Good luck with the job thing and your eye! That sucks. :(

Were not pink and yellow confused? (Pink didn't list it on the tracker but failed the last will save and attacked random targets.) I aske because you cannot take reactions while confused. If pink could take that attack against Squash, wouldn't it have to make a flat check due to being dazzled?

Whoops, good catch. Confused condition does so much, and I was jugging many things, sorry! Taking back damage dealt against Squash.
