More discussions will be happening here, but first I'd like to ask if everyone is up for having an associated Discord channel for this game in order to enable notifications of GM posts and such.
This is also where I'll be announcing pre-game homework, so stay tuned!

I will be using this avatar for Tarcog so that I don’t mess up the character as it exists in Org Play.
I am fine with having a Discord channel for discussion.

Thanks for including Jayma.
As usual, I accidently dotted in as Palandri, so feel free to remove Palandri from the Characters tab.
I'm not a big Discord user but I have an ID and am willing to give it a try.
I have a separate text file with all my many templates, so I will update Jayma's botting spoiler and include a link to it... unless you prefer that I just copy it all into the spoiler.

As you can tell from Pip, it's okay to have a detailed botting spoiler, so long as it is organized.

Homework, Part I
For those of you who aren't Level 7 yet, it is time to level your characters (or the avatars representing their Level 7 selves) to Level 7. If you want to consult with the other characters on the team about purchases or changes, feel free to do so.
HOMEWORK PART II
I'd love your Discord IDs.

Jayma is currently at level 7. She's in the BBEG fight of her current scenario, so her header line information may change, but her profile is otherwise set. If she buys something with the money she gets from the Scenario, I'll let you know.
I'd love your Discord IDs.
I believe that mine is: Palandri#1620

How do you want us to do equipment?
You already have my Discord ID. :)
How many XP does this adventure give? I am currently 2 XP from level and would like to even that out.

GM Hmm |

The first adventure gives 2XP. The second adventure gives 2XP. I suppose if you wanted to do so, you could slow track both of them...
For Equipment, WBL and ask me about Uncommon items that are not accessible to Pathfinder Society Characters. I love seeing this tracked in your ITS spreadsheet but you can also have it listed in your character sheet somewhere.
I will be sending you Discord Friend Requests. Please accept them.

Turiik |

Thank you for the invitation. :)
It's not as fast to notify me as other apps, but here's my Discord handle: Tim M (he/him) aka Chulyin#4634

It may be intentional, but Macros are currently View Only. :)

I have the basics of my character in now.
Still have a skill feat, general feat, a few languages and a 4th level spell to pick out.
Master in Crafting, Expert in Athletics.
I will be trying out both the Kobold Snare ancestry feats and alchemical crafting skill feat. My character in Org Play doesn’t have either yet, but they were something I thought worth considering.
Jayma, I haven’t compared my spell selection against yours yet. I may change some things if we have too much overlap.
I will add a Botting spoiler to both avatars as well. Given we are using the skill macro, I probably will not be bothering with skills in the Botting spoiler.

GM Hmm |

I hadn't opened up that part of the homework yet, but... since you're ready, the Macros are now available to all.

I've made an alias for Meadow and I'll be updating it with level 7 stats over the next couple of days. Not sure what do do about her gear though. Here is a list of Meadow's level 5 equipment interesting items on top and mundane items at the bottom.
+1 striking rapier
+1 striking shortbow
Aeon Stone (Pearly White Spindle)
sturdy adventuring shoes (boots of elvenkind)
wayfinder
lesser healing potion
minor healing potion
lesser alchemist's fire
lesser acid flask
lesser darkvision elixir
leather armor
bola[APG]
dagger
hatchet
light mace
arrows (30)
backpack
bandolier
bedroll
belt pouch
belt pouch
chalks (10)
flint and steel
healer's tools
pup tent
rations (1 week)s (2)
repair kit
rope (foot)s (50)
rope (foot)s (50)
soap
waterskin
winter clothing
writing set
animal companion
light barding
carved wooden figurines (6)
green cloak with embroidered owl and lizard
spool of red ribbon
How should I bring this up to level 7? My plan for her next two purchases would be a +1 rune for her armor and a cloak of elvenkind but when combined with her current gear that may exceed the wealth by level for a level 7 character.

GM Hmm |

PFS characters regularly exceed WBL. How about I grant all level-appropriate fundamental runes gratis for those leveling up, so you are all on on roughly the same wealth level?

Macros and Chronicles done!
For the RPG Chronicles, quick question:
I probably won't change it. But just wanted to clarify: Since these games are played in Adventure Mode, does the sanctioning doc allow us to apply the chronicles to any of our PCs? Again, probably not changing anything, but just curious.

Turiik |

Do you want us to add our School Training Lore and bonus feat?

GM Hmm |

Yes. That can be the solution for Tarcog, too.

Yes, since the Level 7 PFS characters are not changing anything on their character sheets.

Yet Another Avatar |

Have most of the Botting into both characters.
I still need to note how many actions on various spells and include more on the focus spells.

So for my character, that would be the Striking rune on the handwraps (65 gp) and the Potency rune on the explorer’s clothing (160 gp).
How do you want to handle alchemical crafting before the start of the game?
Tarcog has the Alchemical Crafting feat but is no alchemist. He can only do the downtime crafting of alchemical items.
Looks like I need to put the formulas I have in the sheet. Just noticed they weren’t there.
Antidote, moderate 6
Antiplague, lesser 1
Antiplague, moderate 6
Drakeheart mutagen, lesser 1
Drakeheart mutagen, moderate 3
Elixir of life, lesser 5
Elixir of life, minor 1
He has the Kobold feat Snare Genius which gives him free snares each day.
Caltrop snare 1
Hampering snare 1
Nauseating snare 6
Spike snare 1
Warning snare 4
In both cases, I bought additional formulas.

“Even more botting!”
Bad Breath 30’ line electricity DC 23 basic Reflex: 4d4 ⇒ (1, 1, 3, 2) = 7
Rounds to Recharge: 1d4 ⇒ 3
So I think that I’ve got my botting instructions done. I will probably find I’ve missed something once we start playing but hopefully this will suffice for most of the game.

Meadow the Ranger |

Meadow the Ranger and Silence the Snowy Owl aliases created and updated. I still need to tweak Meadow's equipment a bit though. Macro is filled out. RPG chronicles not filled out yet. I still need to figure out which character to apply them to.

GM Hmm |

Thank you all for these updates! They're much appreciated!

GM Hmm |

Hey all... I've been thinking. How would all of you feel about doing a third DA adventure now (one for Level 6) while we are waiting for OutPost to start? We could have you play a weakened version of your Level 7s (-1 to everything) and start in a few days after Bret and I come back from Con of the North. Would that be an issue for any of you?
Hmm

Turiik |

That's fine with me. Just need to finish adding gear to my profile. :)

The Doctor sips his brandy in thoughtful consideration. "I suppose I could fit it into my otherwise very busy schedule."
Sounds fun! I'm in!

Meadow hems and haws, shuffling her feet. "Well I dunno. I promised Mrs. Mullinax that I'd paint the new chicken coop for her after someone managed to knock down the old one." She turns and glares at Silence. "If we could wait a few days then maybe..."Oh beans!"
Her eyes go wide as the familiar figure of Ezren rounds a corner. He is deep in conversation with the warrior Valeros. A panicked Meadow motions to Silence and dives headfirst into a nearby bush while the owl takes to the air.
The pair of veteran pathfinders pass her hiding place none the wiser. After a few minutes the young ranger sticks her head out and glances worriedly at the retreating figures. She shakes her head and whispers. "That was too close. Maybe the chicken coop can wait until we get back. Count us in. Can we leave right now?"

GM Hmm |

Hello all.
It sounds like everyone is in! I just came back from Con of the North. I decided the best way to handle our prequel was for me to adjust enemy ACs, adventure DCs and other challenges up on my end and let you all keep the level 7 characters where they are.
I'll be doing things like checking for Macros and Bot Me spoilers later today, and I will try to get up the new RPG Chronicle today as well if I have time. I will be launching us soon into the Level 6 adventure -- if not today then tomorrow.
Hmm

![]() |

I thought I'd have more time. I just updated Jayma's botting spoiler with a link to my posting templates document.
Which of the DA adventures is the one we're going to play first?

GM Hmm |

It's not what I signed up with for Outpost, so we could start it now-ish. And we can spend a few days mostly roleplaying.

New RPG Chronicles sheet updated. Paizo character sheet good to go. (If I'm missing anything or if you prefer anything formatted differently, just let me know.)
Otherwise, ready to get started when everyone else is!

Same here.

GM Hmm |

We now have a Slideshow. Please put your avatars onto Slide Two in some sort of marching order. Thank you!

Turiik |

Bottified profile is in place, though I still have to buy mundane equipment (the things like backpack, bedroll, rope, etc).
I made one significant change: I changed his alignment to True Neutral for ease of explaining things, particularly to future GMs.
I also don't have a full combat Bot Spoiler yet, but I'll get that soon. Tomorrow unless something absurd happens at work.

GM Hmm |

Sounds good!

Meadow the Ranger |

I just made a minor change to the Macro and to Meadow's profile. I forgot to add the +1 perception for checks involving sight that she gets from her goggles of night.
Also since this is being run in adventure mode I have a minor request. It always bothered me that Silence becomes medium sized when he becomes mature. Snowy owls are pretty big but medium size is a bit much. Would it be possible to keep him at small size in order to better fit my headcannon?

GM Hmm |

Yup. Make him as small as you like.

The old manor looms above an overgrown, derelict garden. Now very little remains but blackberry brambles and a partially collapsed gazebo.
"A Gazebo? This is serious. I think they can only be harmed by silver weapons or something."

GM Hmm |

I think he would have been delighted by the satire. I know I am.

Meadow the Ranger |

"What my friend, the Professor asks
is what must we do to lay you to rest?
In addition what do you know
about the Lady of the Harvest."
I don't like this one very much. The meter is all wrong. I couldn't really come up with anything better while at work though. I really liked rhyming 'lay you to rest' with 'of the harvest' though.

GM Hmm |

I am enjoying these as poems of the moment!

Meadow the Ranger |

A moment later, Meadow notices the painting Lady of the Harvest appear in the Hallway of Mirrors, just as all the sheets start dropping off the mirrors.
Flumph. Flumph. Flumph.
The sheets drop one by one.
A few seconds later, the painting starts shuddering, and there is a ripping sound as the grass in the painting parts and then a second, non-glowing Turiik spits out of it.
"Oh my goodness! First we have a gazebo and now flumphs? This place is crazy."
