Not all curses are so bad. You will soon learn the Repository of Cursed Items is the personal collection of an Efreeti who has been rather active in his wish craft. Then having him on the Council for several years has done wonderful things for the Greenwatch.
It is just a standard wish.
Would it be a random item or something we select?
As far as council positions go, Markus is great at fighting, and far more diplomatic and bluffy then expected of him.
Champion probably would work, something like "Royal insult" (trashtalk you foes and then crush them) would also work.
we could make some cash by having Ulricha and Markus duel, non lethally, for the Royal champion position and sell the tickets/food/anemnities etc. for it.

It would be an item you select, though the more powerful the item the more cursed it is.
1.
Each 5k, has a 10% chance of being cursed. So an item worth 50k = for those rolls only 1 random curse
2.
Each 25k auto curse
3.
Each 100k auto 3 curses
125k item auto 8 curses plus = 10 curses total
▪︎☆☆▪︎▪︎☆☆▪︎
General Wishes:
Item worth 25k or less.
Add template*
Evolve template or race (aasimar--> half celestial)
+1 to an ability score
*Can only be done once
Any wisdom or intelligence based role would be suitable for Alice, with wisdom the better stat.
Would you allow the Giantkin template? The flavoring in her background is that while her mother was an earth druid, her father, whom she's never met was a taiga giant, or something similar, and the more she learns of nature and the stronger her ties to the land, the more of her giant blood comes to the surface (eventually culminating in the Mountain Druid gestalt and gaining Giantform wildshaping)

Given her personality, though, i think it would more suit one of the following.
- Councilor
- Viceroy?
But she'd give full effort if something else was required.

would having an Abyssal Bloodline qualify for getting evolved to half fiend?
It is a +2 CR template though. Is there one that is less then half fiend?
Possible idea:
Tier 1 Quarter Fiend:
+2 to three ability scores, gets immunities/resitances, speeds, melee attacks, natural armor, changes to outsider native
Tier 2 Half Fiend
gains DR, spell like abilities, Spell resistance, the full suit of 3 +4s and 3 +2s instead of 3 +2s to ability scores.
I'm pretty sure the template before half fiend would be tiefling, or possibly the fiendish template
The Last Aeromancer simply wants to be Air Marshal ... but could certainly fill the role of Magister if needed. The focus on higher learning is very Vudran (and I don't want us to have a deficit in Econ either)
Whenever we make level 7, and I have a real flying mount, I could cover "Air Marshal" although I'm not sure which stat that uses.
Now that I think of it, Quarter-Fiend sounds like a passable name for a metal band.

It's my 50th Birthday today! Make some noise!!
It's my 50th Birthday today! Make some noise!!
Congrats, half a century!
Onwards to a full century!
Many thanks, Alice!
Happy birthday!
May your aging rolls be ever in your favor!
I remember 50. It wasn't that long ago.... Or was it? What were we talking about? Where'd I leave my beer?
It's my 50th Birthday today! Make some noise!!
Nice. Just hit 50 on September 10th. Happy Birthday.

That's funny! I turned 50 this year also. :D
Happy December. May your mugs never empty!
I turn 40 in december.
Any response on the template questions?
Deciding on a wish is harder than i thought....
@ Quince, had there been that many missions with wish rewards?
If your ability scores are the result thereof.
GM, are we restricted to paizo templates?
Or are 3PP templates allowed, subject to approval? Provided their CR increase does not go beyond CR +2?

Oh I missed this one, sorry.

Yes I suppose but once you have a template it is hard to get another. What I mean is I could wish for CR 1-2 template and later evolve.

So I'm assuming that means the +1 CR Giantblooded template is okay?

Yeah that sounds great and makes sense!
GM, would that template i sent the pm about be ok?
Yup!
Facelift!
Facelift!
He's not a butler though. He is the Councilor.
Is markus a half fiend now?
Wasn't your plan to go in stages? Seems like most people advanced +1 CR. If I'm not mistaken.
Its what I am confused about :).
Well that is up to you Markus. Yes the wish went off.

Do you want to take it easy and slowly build to a half fiend, it sounds like you do. Very low chance of any curses going this route.

Many of you might wonder: What curses is he referencing? That is the wordage of the wish spell unless you are replicating a spell or gaining a mere +1 to an ability score, the wish is up to DM discretion. Which means we let the dice fall. If you have divine support one roll will be nullified for you, whereas those who are divine characters get two rolls nullified.
I will roll for everyone and you will all get to see the original rolls, I will not be showing the rolls for determining curses... way too much!

Curses for advancing with a +1 CR Template:
Ulricha Looking for 1s (curse) or 10s (blessing)!
Markus assuming 1/4 fiend:
Curses for advancing with a +2 CR Template:
Alice Looking for 1s (curse) or 10s (blessing)!
Xandarian
Facelift!He's not a butler though. He is the Councilor.
I can still change it! And I think I will.

Who is in the rapid reaction force:
Markus
Quince, and Jorne
Ulricha
Vandomir and hippogriff
Scouting group:
Jorrast
Not sure:
Zsofia
Alice
Xandarian
If we're casting invisibility on folks, Zsófia (and Chizzlall) will gladly join the infiltration team, since her social skills may be useful. (Chizzlall is actually pretty stealthy, too.)
Unless magic shenanigans, big if I know, invisibility and fly gets us in.
Being able to find a local bar talk to a potential resistance leader is going to involve walking around and talking with people.
Dark hair dye, casual clothing, big cloaks and looking like commoners will work for the normalish looking races.
The fox people can be in human form.
What are our options for getting Disquise self/other or seeming?
I have sleeves of many garments, and dyeing my hair is an option.
The Tiger Lords are Kellids so while I'm not unnoticeable I wouldn't be out of place per se. I'd pass as part of the occupying force
Xandarian would like to join the Rapid Response Team. It's more his style.
Note: Markus paranoia is just roleplay. He will not take a ring, but it does not mean he will be disruptive.

Ditto!
Clarification for players:
We expect you will want a seat on the council. Through steps leading up to that oaths will be swore and so forth.
The wish and oath are not magically linked, instead voluntary. Though use of the contract allows Sulvanii to replace curses with quests.
Possible council positions for Markus:
Str 20 CHA 18 Dex 16 Con 16 Wis and Int dont ask
So, Marshall or Champion would both work, but I think Ulricha is a funnier champion. I think we have a number of candidates for marshall too.
Something that could work given his background may also be mercenary liasion. (which would work both in terms of hiring mercs, and in making it more expensive for enemies to hire mercs against us).
I have to confess that I dont know the actual rules.
It comes across as forced or binding. All of the wording so far makes it seem to be that by accepting, the PC's are giving up their freedom and binding themselves to something that seems less than trustworthy based on how he's been played.
The hing about signing a contract to make the wish permanent seemed like they were connected.
@Markus. Why funnier?

It does sound that way. That's why Quince is trying to explain it differently.

I'm not sure if Xandarian would fit into an open spot on the council. Leadership, Hell! LAW is a new and different concept for the chaotic good paladin! For right now, the caydenite is okay with being rank-and-file.
