[ACO] PF2e Q11 - A Parchment Tree (P1) (Inactive)

Game Master UncleFroggy

Hello! Welcome to my table. Before we start, please do the following:

Please complete the macros linked at the top of the page. This will be used for initiative and secret rolls.

Please also post your token to the slides and post your position in the marching order. The slides are also linked at the top of the page.

As per the Organized Play Foundation Community Standards, each player must decide if they will allow their characters to be damaged by friendly fire (usually via splash damage). In keeping with the “Explore, Report, Cooperate” motto of the Pathfinder Society, engaging in non-consensual character-versus-character conflict is prohibited. While accidental friendly fire happens due to missed attack rolls or other factors, players must obtain the consent of other players before deliberately including fellow PCs in damaging effects. This rule does not apply in situations where a character is not acting of their own free will, such as if they’re being mind-controlled by an NPC and forced to attack a fellow Pathfinder.

As we are in the high tier, the lvl 1 players will receive Level Bumps:

HIGH TIER LEVEL BUMPS

To provide low level players a more fun and fair experience, PCs whose level equals the adventure’s base level (such as a 3rd-level PC playing in a Level 3–6 scenario) gain a temporary boost when playing in the higher level range called a level bump to represent the higher-level PCs’ mentorship and support.

Increase every DC the PC has by 1.
Increase the attack modifiers, attack damage, spell damage, saving throw modifiers, skill modifiers, Perception modifiers, and AC of the PC by 1.
Increase the Hit Point totals of the PC by 10 or by 10%, whichever is higher.

These adjustments are less beneficial than gaining a level, yet they provide the PC more survivability and opportunity to contribute to the adventure experience, reducing the degree to which higher-level PCs might overshadow these less experienced Pathfinders.

You should also remind higher level PCs to apply any mentor boons they might have purchased.

Apply the relevant adjustments to the PC's animal companions, eidolons, and familiars as well. If a value is already increased by applying the adjustment to a PC (such as a familiar's save modifiers and AC), do not increase the value a second time.

Oof. Josef doesn't have a mentor boon. He's just barely level 2 himself and doesn't qualify yet.

I do have a GM Glyph, though

Rodthalas has only 8 XP so far (so I've bumped up my stats as per GM Tiger's instructions above). And I've not begun running games yet, so no GM Glyphs to give at this time.

Mentor Boons don't actually have a level requirement, it's a reputation requirement--liked by a faction, so 20 with one faction.

But XP and reputation correlate, so most characters qualify somewhere late level 2.

I thought Josef was a good fit thematically, plus a Cleric to go with all those martials, but I could switch to a level 1 to keep us low tier if that's easier. Or to a character with a Mentor Boon.

Only just into L2 myself, so likewise, no mentor boon sorry. Are we really high tier?

Yes. Graeyson is lvl 4. We're only at the base of the higher tier so if you have a lower level character we'll be a high low tier (18 CP).

I could swap out to Jeeves (l1 monk) if folk would prefer?

I can't shift to lower than level 1, which I already am. Lol

If you thinj he isntoo high lvl I have loeer lcl characters

If possible Graeyson, please shift to a level 1 or 2.

I can bring him along instead of Graeyson but I am not too sure how I would change the Chronicle because I did not use my account when I signed up, or I also have a barbarian or witch that could come.

I can fix it if you give me the info.

What do we need, I have a warpriest, barbarian, a witch, a bard, a wizard, a fighter, a monk, a poppet barbarian, Loquinoris going to be my water kinesticist.

Here is my little kobold witch, named in honor of your friend and mine, from the Sunless Citadel.

Everything is filled out.

Meepette, what's your character number? I'll change the entry in rpgchronicles.

Still waiting for:

Macros/Slides - Rodthalas, Dolmandir

Ah sorry about that. Loaded Rodthalas as unmodified 1st level character.

Sorry, done!

She has 2 GM Glyphs.

Meepette can have my Glyph point, then.

Meepette - done. Who are you handing your glyphs out to?

Josef, she does not give things away to kobold killers, lol.

Lol. It's the module. There's a whole bunch of kobolds and a green dragon wyrmling bothering citizens of Otari.

Oh I know, I think it is funny though.

Is there a benefit to taking alchemist with fighter in your build?

Meepette - so you're not playing the other table?

The main benefit lies in less reliance on healers or spellcasters to provide boosts. Its pretty weak at first level, but I can see the progression. Some fellow whose videos I was following had said that even if you don't get any further feats, that's 1 additional reagent per level which can be used to make minor elixirs of life - 1/level. At 3rd Level, that's 3 extra dice of healing at no cost.

Besides I'm a big fan of Roy Greenhilt of the Order of the Stick. That is, he fights with his brain first, not his brawn.
I got an ancient elf for the free alchemy and daily reagents, the magical misfit for trick magic items so he can read scrolls (of healing, longstrider, haste, etc).
So less combat effectiveness for more self-reliance on the long run.

Nice!

If you want your downtimes part of your chronicles, go ahead and roll them now.

Academia Lore: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14

warfare lore: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8

Ulvard is too taken in with the sights of the city to pay attention to how it is defended.

Aerondor - among all your characters, my favorite is Ulvard... followed closely by Slipp... :)

Thanks!

I quite enjoy Ulvard as well, the classic "fish out of water"

Lore Underworld: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (8) + 6 = 14

Earn Income Scribing Lore: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15

Success. 5 cp x 8 days = 4 sp.

Earn Income [dice=Scribing Lore]1d20+4

Success. 5 cp x 8 days = 4 sp.

8 days? Quests are only 2 days :)

Josef also wants to use some vacation days. To... work all day as a scribe.. for a few extra pennies.

5 cp x 2 days = 1 sp

(I actually just totally overlooked that this was a Quest. It says so right there. Has all along, I'm sure.)

crafting 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26
