Xandarian will follow the will of the party. Isn't there a General role or something for the paladin to do?
The Paladin doesn’t want to run the whole show?
Which kingdom rules are you using?
If Xandarian becomes King, he can then institute his Ladies Drink for Free Fridays, and the women's right to go topless in public!

More accurately, he'll title every day of the week specifically, for special drinking and party occasions.

Councilor: Add your Charisma modifier or Wisdom modifier to Loyalty.
General: Add your Charisma modifier or Strength modifier to Stability.Royal Enforcer: Add your Dexterity modifier or Strength modifier to Loyalty.
Warden: Add your Constitution modifier or Strength modifier to Loyalty.
I think Councilor is more Xandarian's speed.
Warden would definitely work for Ulricha, at least statwise.
Vandomir has +4 Strength, glad to be General, Royal Enforcer, or Warden.
He also has +3 Wisdom.
Dexterity +5 (+7 in fox form), Intelligence +4
So Spymaster sounds right.
Alice could be suited for most things related to high mental stats.
But personality wise, high priest would not be one.
If Alice is the caster of the spells, she'd be able to see herself.
Invisibility is an illusion (glamer) spell.
Illusion says "Illusion spells deceive the senses or minds of others." and "A character faced with proof that an illusion isn't real needs no saving throw."
Since you cast it yourself, you know it isn't real. Thus you can see yourself.
The rest of us would still be screwed.
If my spirit familiar hides in my backpack or under my mantle, it showing its head is an indicator for you.
Alice is then able to see herself. With her spirit familiar he could be seen. Though you have to get through 20 feet of the miasma first.
Hence it will remain in hiding.
Now I am awaiting a response from Xan and/or Ulricha to communicate and then to move forward somehow. Do realize that you are on a countdown and your actions are crucial... We are not in combat yet but perhaps we start with Round A, then B... when we get to it surprise round, then start combat!
Fun?
Jorrast, what do you mean by "fun?"?
LOL! Through a blind portal and in to a melee with unknown opponents.
Okay I have reviewed invisibility and I was correct. You cannot see yourself as others do not either. They don't get a save to disbelieve. If you save against the harmless spell it does not work.
What melee? Lol! But when you go through... maybe.
Can you read a Scroll while invisible?
Everyone,
I could have cast communal prot from evil before went in, but we'd have it for a minute each. Less with the rounds we spend waiting for enemies to show up.
I'd recommend waiting until we have an idea what we may be seeing. Don't waste a spell that we may want later....
Vandomir to give a possible solution to the dilemma: Draw scroll from Handy Haversack, drop scroll, pick up scroll, read scroll.
Vandomir was only told it was time to go through the portal. Presumably I did go then, as I was waiting for it to be big enough.
I've no idea what the situation is once I'm through. The others rolled some saves, etc.
Round C will be done today, if everyone gets some actions in then we will move to D!
Yeah saves for the Miasma, which you have around you too!
Ulricha and Alice, are you going to join us? Moving on...
Yeah. Getting caught up now.
Come on guys! Get some posts in! Or at least ask questions in game or here!
We're standing around unable to see much of anything or each other (even ourselves for that matter), I'm not even sure what the point to us going through the portal is, and everything feels like a trap.
Come on guys! Get some posts in! Or at least ask questions in game or here!
Vandomir, Jorrast, and Roci have been patiently waiting in the lobby. I suppose I could have made daily inane posts, checking, and re-checking the portal status, but I didn't.
Like Ulricha, I have no idea why we're here, but here we are.
As near as I can tell, the PCs (and players) with history (from years ago) in this game have departed, so bring me (and Vandomir) up to speed, and he shall try and be useful.
Arriving at an unknown location, with 5' of vision, and a DC25/32 perception check is unnerving, but I made those checks, so I have that going for me.
@ Awesome force of nature Ulricha & Vandomir.
The outsiders responsible for the hostile takeover, came through a portal. To permanently prevent them from returning here, we needed to take the focus item back to the material plane, or destroy it here. (or take it and destroy it when getting out)
Yep. Riding the ever hungry Roci. Nauseous and trying not to retch on him.... Last time he ate he was in native form. That might be interesting to see what comes out of his tiny fox form....
Combat folks! Since you waited so long and they finally decided to come greet you.
Oh, everyone. I recall Jorne asking which one of us he should bodyguard.
Who wants to be the VIP?
I mean I guess once I engage they'll probably swarm me.
Yup still waiting on a response.
I guess me then.
Guardianship (Ex)
At 1st level, the sworn protector may select a ward, a person whom she must protect no matter what the cost. When in combat and the sworn protector’s ward is within 10ft of their ward’s position, the ward gains a +1 morale bonus to their AC and savings throws. This bonus increases by +1 at 5th level, and every four levels after that (9th, 13th, and 17th level). Additionally, the sworn protector may add her guardianship bonus to her attack and damage rolls as a morale bonus if the ward is within the sworn protector’s guardianship range. This radius increases by 10ft at 6th and again at 12th level. A sworn protector may only have one ward at a time at 1st level; they may then select a second ward at 8th level and a 3rd ward at 15th level. To select a ward, the sworn protector must take ten minutes discussing tactics and practicing with his ward so that he may learn how best to protect him, and from there on he practices those tactics when he readies his maneuvers. A sworn protector may dismiss a creature as his ward at anytime as a free action.
7th
20 feet
Ulricha: +2 to AC and saving throws.
Journe: +2 on attack and damage rolls.
This augments and replaces the aegis class feature, and if an ability uses the warder’s aegis bonus for anything, then substitute with his guardianship bonus instead.
Defensive Intercept (Ex)
With swift speed and trained instincts, a sworn protector is capable of sudden bursts of speed in the defense of a chosen ward. A number of times per day equal to 1 + the sworn protector’s warder initiation modifier she may leap to her ward’s defense with lightning speed. As an immediate action, the sworn protector moves up to her base speed to a space within 10 ft. of a ward who is being subjected to an attack or effect that would cause harm, to thereby grant her guardianship benefits. This movement is subject to attacks of opportunity. If the sworn protector is too distant to reach her ward, she cannot use this ability.
4/day, immediate action, move 50 feet, subject to AoOs.
Shared Counter (Ex)
At 3rd level, the warder’s ability to protect those around him expands to allow him to use readied counters with a range of personal to protect another as long as he is adjacent to their position. If the counter is unsuccessful, then the protected ally must rely on their own defenses. He may use this with no daily limit, but only as often as he has an immediate action to initiate a counter. Additionally, in the defense of a ward she may use her defensive intercept ability as part of the same immediate action to use a shared counter. This ability functions with the extended defense class feature.
Who is the healer in your group?
No worries Ulrichs. I still did the damage wrong. 1d12+7+3+1
Then add power attack if you want.
Who is the healer in your group?
I have a few slots with cure spells.
I don't think we have a dedicated healer.
A little here and there... we will make it work!

Time to stock up on wands.
Jorrast has a wand of CLW. But just the one.... with 43 charges.
I have round 7 actions for... Vandomir and Alice... Where are the rest of you. I gave you the weekend to catch up and yet... I know some of you can't do much to a foe 50 feet away from you but we must keep moving!
Jorrast doesn't have anything for range except a non-magical light crossbow....
Better to just have him using the CLW wand? I'll post numbers for rounds 7-10.
Sorry, dealing with the aftermath of oral surgery.

Ouch, take good care of yourself Ulricha.

Ohhh! Sorry, I hope you have a quick recovery! Just let us know. I will bot you.
If it'll help us complete the requirement faster, Ulricha can also contribute to the hit point drain. If she drops down below half she can use regenerated figure to regain 2d8+7 hp, after which you'll have vast healing 1.
Nowhere near as good as Jorne or Alice, but should be enough to keep her alive. Also at that point you starts converting hit point damage to non-lethal damage and her damage reduction is doubled against non-lethal
