GM Worg's The Chaotic Slithering

Game Master Kyle "Worg" H

Discussion page now open.

Liberator of a former sex godess will have a couple of "kinks", if it gets overboard, or becomes cringe rather then fun (I am playing it for laughs) just pm me.

Cringe it up for now, just censor explicit words with a **** like Im watching public telivison.

First time Pf2e player so lots of rule questions :)

Akrons steel shield has hardness 5, does acid damage ignore hardness as in Pf1e?
20 hp could hopefully last for a bit. Need to get some extra weapons and spare shields for sure.

So the bludgeoning damage would be resisted, but the acid from the ooze has an effect that would be unideal to use metal or wood equipment against them with.

November 20th Recap Post
You were all in the markets doing whatever daily activities best suited your interest, when suddenly a ooze burst forth from a man! When you fought it, you found that dealing slashing damage made it split into multiple oozes!

After a harrowing fight, you brought it down and were hired by city counsel woman Abayone to investigate the cause of this plague, being paid 60gp up front.

Her leads were a preacher named Baats'ulan whose acolytes are many, secretive, and have recently shown signs of being affected by this plague. There is also the Nation of Nex's envoy named Mafzat A'Haddin, and she advises you to not tell Mafzat that you are working on behalf of the council.

As of today, you are about to debate with Baats'ulan about whether or not non-humans are just as enlightened, if not moreso, than humans.

Sorry about the delay in posting; it's been a rough couple of weeks for me here. I'm back and ready though.

Things should get a bit more steady now.

It feels weird for me to not know the ins and outs of the system, I am adjusting though :).

It's all good.

Thank Urgathoa for this level. I realized all of my offensive spells were practically useless against oozes.

Ashes reached Level 6!
+10 HP
New archetype feat: Daywalker
New skill feat: Intimidating Glare
+1 3rd rank spell per day
New 3rd rank spell known: Rouse Skeletons

Does anyone else have their updated sheets yet?

Working on it!

For anyone who is ready, you have investigation you can conduct in the gameplay.

Sorry, my whole household ended up getting sick over the holidays and I've kind of had my hands full. But I am working on my character right now and should have the changes done tonight.

Ok, leveling up in 2nd ed is pretty easy. Clynter bumped Athletics up to Expert, and picked up Skirmish Striker for his class feat and Powerful Leap for his skill feat.

Oh, right, probably waiting for the rest of us. Took Gravity Weapon, hence Ranger archetype and Steady Balance.

Hey GM, if you'd like we can just skip ahead to the next scene. Maybe slap a few spoiler'd posts in to figure out what happens for the vampire spawn creation. Your call whether he's gotta drain and bury someone now, or if he already did that 3 days prior to the adventure and they're about ready to rise around this time.

Can somebody explain how saves work in 2e?

I am trained in reflex saves due to champion. This gives me a +2. I have 10 dex, so no dex bonus to be had. I then add my shield bonus, resulting in a +5.

I am clearly missing something.

Level + Proficiency and then any other factor bonuses.
I am uncertain how a shield bonus can be added into reflex, please show where that is.

Based on your level of 6 and proficiency of trained, you would have 8 before any other modifiers.

I mispoke, I wear plate armor, and which has the bulwark ability which replaces my dex mod of zero with a +3, although its conditional on the effect doing damage.

The armor covers you so completely that it provides benefits against some damaging effects. On Reflex saves to avoid a damaging effect, such as a fireball, you add a +3 modifier instead of your Dexterity modifier.

I am kind of new to pf2e :).

No wonder I keep getting last in init, just now read that you have my init down as +1 instead of +12. Copy and paste error.

@Rakdon Well that explains a thing or two. This will be the last encounter with that initiative error.

@Arkon Confirmed with my VC friends, and you are correct in that the +3 bulwark does take over the +0 dex you have. You will still need to add your level and proficiency to your reflex. Bearing that in mind of 6(level)+2(Prof)+3(Bulwark{Versus Damaging Effects specifically}), you should be at 11 Reflex total unless you have any additional modifiers.

Hey. I noticed the goat is at -42 HP on the initiative tracker. I think it should have started the combat full, since I had spirit link cast on the goat for a solid 10 minutes since the previous fight. Heck depending on how fast we went it could still be active.

Sorry, forgot about that mechanic. I will get it updated.

I will be taking my leave, was fun playing with you guys, but pf2e isnt my thing it seems!

All good man, all good. Take care!

Hello everybody! I just had the birth of my second child this last Friday, so I have been pretty out of it. If I am late to posting, please bot me. Clynter is pretty straight forward; move to flank or feint to get sneak attack damage. Use skirmish strike to Step into position if needed or step away after attacking.

I'll get my action up in about an hour, I updated and forgot.

Nevermind, I was botted, Nice shot.

I'll be on Vacation from the 20th to the 27th, I won't even have internet access as I'll be out to sea, a trip my brother is taking our family on, he works in IT. I'll post as this updates up until Friday Night. I'll return on the 28th.

Copy that Rakdon.

Back.

Totally missed it, but happy anniversary to the game! We're been at it for a while, and I appreciate everyone sticking with it.

Damn! I've been back in the society for a year now? That's also crazy!

I just realized that Stokes doesn't have +1 armor. Do we have enough for him to buy some? I have no clue how much we have.

Ashes has reached level 7!
+17 HP
+2 4th rank spells per day
New 4th rank spells: Vampiric Maiden and Sanguine Mist
Spellcasting proficiency upgraded to expert!
New General Feat: Toughness
Skill Increase: Intimidate to Master
Resolve: Proficiency for Will saves increased to master. When Ashes rolls a success on a Will save, he gets a critical success instead.

Are we able to go shopping with the Gold we just got?
Also Kazavel, +17 HP? How? A barbarian with 16 Con and toughness would get +16 HP. 12 Class HP, 3 from Con bonus and 1 Toughness bonus. If you looked all the way through nephys and found a way to maximize HP I want to know about it.

Because I picked up Toughness this level :D

Effectively speaking, no one has declared they didn't do any shopping before leaving. So as long as purchases are done before we enter the temple I am cool with it.

Not a bad idea. Some of the general feats are a bit lackluster.

Okay, picked up a +1 striking composite Longbow with 30 arrows, now that I can use piercing damage rather than mostly blunt damage.

Oh cool. I'll have to make a shopping trip for some overdue stuff in the next day-ish time.

Ok, I upgraded Clynter but I still want to make some purchases. He now has Doublespeak as a feat, which lets him hide the real meaning behind his words, but anyone who has spent at least a week with him knows what he "really" means. I hope Clynter gets a chance to use it at some point!

Clynter is going to use his share of the gold to buy an armor potency rune and a lesser oil of unlife (exactly 172 gold)

Ashes is going to use this opportunity to buy +1 striking handwraps of mighty blows, a 1st level wand of spirit link, and a moderate oil of unlife.

So, as I understand it, after a certain period of inactivity, this campaign will automatically become inactivated. This campaign will remain on my page until then, and I will keep checking, but over time, my memory of what we were doing and even who my character is will fade.

Are others still checking this campaign?

I am and I think we are almost done with this too.

I think something happened to the Dm in that he can’t log in or isn’t around. Switched jobs, computer crashed, etc. we are almost done. Maybe find a new Dm that can read this and pick off were we left off? We got to be close to the end.

The GM mentioned, but I can't find it anywhere, that he stepped down from being a Venture Agent a while back, and since then, he's been forgetting to check the thread.

We are not close to the end of the Adventure. As a matter of fact, I'm not 100% sure we're even halfway. I believe we'd need to complete 2/3 in order to get credit, and I'm now pretty sure we're the only two PCs left, which doesn't bode well for getting a new GM.

I'll ask Lysle what he thinks, but my prognosis is negative at this point.
