I think I'm still learning how to find any and all information on AoN. Most of the time I have to do quite a bit of digging to find what I'm looking for. I sometimes know what I'm talking about in 1e terms, but it takes me a while to figure out the relative 2e terms. And yeah, especially class features are nested and organized in ways that I get lost in pretty easily.
Quick question. Ustemir is looking for Balrus. Do they know each other? What's the relationship there, if they do?
I don't think it was specified.
Have you guys tried pf2easy?
I know of it, but I don't use it.
I use aon 90% of the time, with pf2e encounter builder to mix and match mobs.
I find it better than aon for some purposes, for example here's the animal companion rules entry, it has the support action listed in the same spot as everything else:

I was looking for this, as I thought we discussed it, but couldn't find the discussion. Barlus was Ustemir's hook into the story, that much I know for sure.
As per Ustemir's first introduction, it seems he was familiar with Barlus. You can decide into the nature of their relationship.
I'm going to be unavailable to post till Wednesday. Feel free to DMPC me.
Is Ascadae still Wounded? I thought Wounded dropped off when someone was healed to full.
Wounded goes away if you successfully use Treat Wounds, or if you heal back to full AND get rest.
It's actually only 10 minutes.
Ah, good call. So Ascaede is ok.
I believe the "And" changes things. You have to be restored to full HP and rest 10-minutes.
or if you are restored to full Hit Points by any means and rest for 10 minutes
well, in this case both conditions have been met. I just thought it required a full rest.
Trade Show this week. I'll be AFK till Thursday at the earliest.
Hey, everyone! I'm dying here. Came down with a cold, so please be patient. Alternatively, bot me if needed. Thanks!
Hope you feel better soon!
Hi y'all,
I just want to give you a heads up as to my situation. We are expecting our second child to be born sometime in the next 3 weeks. I have been putting in the effort to keep the game chugging along, and will continue to do so, but if I suddenly go dark in the foreseeable future, it's because i've got a newborn, a toddler, and a recovering wife to take care of. I'll do my best to keep you informed, and once things settle, will pick the game back up at a more regular pace once again. Thanks for your understanding and for playing along with me!
Thanks for letting us know but more importantly wishing your growing family the best! Take the time you need!
Gonna need a bigger boat!
I remember the first time this happened. At least you have *some* idea of what to expect!!! ;)
Congratulations! Take your time, get some sleep.
Gonna need a bigger boat!
yes, actually. Our next big development after the baby comes is relocating back to Louisiana where we can actually afford to buy a home.
You're going to be very busy over the next little while!
Sebastien has light listed as a cantrip and magic weapon (runic weapon?) listed as a 1st level spell…
Hi y'all, it looks very likely our baby is coming this weekend. It also looks like y'all may want to rest up and head back to town, so this may be a good opportunity to take a break. I'll keep you posted!
Good luck with the delivery!
Agreed, we can head to town with these two.
Congratulations on your new short person!
Agreed! Back to civilization. Proper beds. Hot eats. Strong drink. And perhaps a few tales told about a proper fireplace, laughing and performing practiced patients as our smoke rings form nothing like any ring we seen....
Best of luck and wishes to you GM and yes, we'll head to town and we'll pause for as long as you need!
Hi folks, I’ve already alerted GM NABU - I’ll be leaving the game. Narratively this is a good time for Ascaede to take her leave of the group with the cure she needs for her Yolanite temple. Whether she makes it or not is entirely up to the vagaries of fate, the whims of GM NABU and the necessary intersection of those two with the overarching requirements of said narrative!
Thanks to all of you for playing along with Ascaede and definitely a big thank you to GM NABU for all the behind the scenes work with plot and hooks; mapping and running combats and just all around being a relaxed and understanding GM.
May you crush tour enemies, make firm and fast friends, and for Sebastien, enjoy at least *one* night in a comfy, warm, bed-bug free bed!
Ascaede will miss her allies and always remember their shared adventure. She will give Kolek a big hug, and an ear and throat scritch, as allowed.
(@GM NABU - as time allows, please remove me from the Campaign. Also, continue to be wonderful, and enjoy your family time!!!)
Oh. Well, I wish you good luck in your future exploits. Thanks for joining us, albeit briefly.
Ascaede is a great character and it was fun playing with you! Best of luck.

Hi y'all. Baby came early last Saturday. Baby and mama are doing well, everyone is safe and sound. I'll try to get things rolling again soon. As we say farewell to Ascaede, if you k ow anyone who might enjoy joining our game, I'm open to suggestions.
Congratulations GM NABU!!! Happy to hear both are doing well…
The best news GM! Happy for you and your family.
No need to rush back but would be happy to continue also.
Happy Burpday!
Congratulations!
Take your time. We aren't going anywhere....
Congrats on the kiddo!
Yeah, take care of the family if there's no time for other stuff. I understand.
As for extra players, no suggestions from me. If we want more, that is.
So I'm working on one of the players from our in person game to join us here. Before we move forward, some questions:
1) Do you want to rest in the dungeon before heading back to Hearth? And if so where?
2) Who wants to make the Survival rolls to find your way back to town?
3) Once you get to town, what is the order of business?
Sebastian wobbles back to town hungry for a hot bath, a hot breakfast, a hot lunch, a hot dinner and a hot towel to get this yucky road, adventuring dirt and grime off him!
After that we should probably complete all our completed quests for rewards.
I think we should
1) heal up enough to get full health with alchemical potions
2) go to the front of the dungeon and clear out the corpses because they started rising up!
3) go to town. Waedin has a +7 Survival.
4) I think on the way to town we should turn in as many quests as possible. I believe the wolf quest will be on the way to town and then there's a lot of stuff to turn in in town.
Stepnik will take the "Bottled Lightning" formula.
Sébastien of The City of a Hundred Fountains
Race
Halfling
Classes/Levels
Bard (Maestro) 3
+1 to everything!
+10hp
Signature Spells (1st Soothe)
Reflex Expertise
General Feat
Thorough Search
Skill Increase
Performance (E)+11 (+1 Oratory)
2nd Rank Spells
2nd 2/2
1. Stupify
2. Illusory Creature
Since it didn't work out with Verkrik, do y'all want a fifth, or are you fine moving forward as a party of 4?
Bard
Ranger
Alchemist
Cleric
Sounds solid to me.

Yeah, 4 is fine. Good balance. Plus, we have a bear.
I agree, I think y'all are a pretty strong group.
Yeah I think we're good. If someone wants to jump in and be a rogue type then that'll be good as well!
Level 3 is surprisingly boring for Waedin!
Just picked up Athletics and Titan Wrestler so she can be more muscly. Switched my spells up a bit as she's a buffer.
Stepnik added:
Thievery: Trained
Paragon: General Training
General Feat: Diehard
General Feat: Arcane Sense (Detect Magic at will).
(2) Formulas: Frost Vial (Lesser), Glue Bomb (Moderate)
Alchemist only need learn the formula for each different Alchemical item not for each upgrade now.
All your lessers now have access to moderate too
Given Ustemir's new rebuild, I think this cursed gauntlet is actually a blessing.
