We will begin as soon as all six PCs have registered in the Gameplay thread and filled out their Macros and the slides.
Much gratitude for being selected. Good looking Table here! Plenty of Healing presented by folks having Medicine/Battle Medicine, along with our Oracle.
Unfortunately, Virgil has zero healing potential, so thanking everyone in advance...lol.
I have a funeral to attend, but plan to complete requirements once back home.
....or I will just get it done...lol.
What a first post...
My condolences?
As for other matters, thanks for the invitation. Looking forward!
Sorry, I am a bit uninitiated on how exploration works - what's the purpose of the "exploration lore" column?

I assume it is part of the "investigation" activity.
Exploration lore is for niche cases. For example if you have scouting lore, or merchantile lore in a large bazaar, etc.
Speaking of Lores, we're you thinking about granting the Campaign Traits(Background) any Lore skills and/or a Skill Feat?

Each of you can make a case (based on the background you chose) for a Lore or Skill.
I'm fine with my skills/lores as they are, but since my character has been a crusader for a while, can he know Abyssal as one of his languages? Know thy enemy, and all that
Won't be necessary. Can you talk to dead demons?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
JK, do your thing.
Possible Lore Skills associated:
1. Riftwardens Lore
2. Blackfire Adept Lore
3. Great Beyond Lore
Possible Skill(s) associated:
1. Occultism
2. Survival
3. Religion
Possible Skill Feat(s) associated:
1. Schooled in Secrets
2. Experienced Tracker
3. Pilgrim's Token
4. Or Additional Lore Feat for whichever Lore Skill.
My 2 cents. Not too certain how applicable those Lores will be, although one can say that plenty with normal Lores associated with Backgrounds...haha!
Great preparation. Though my initiative seems to be off by one.
I like parties with lots of potential healing. On top of battle medicine I can do 1d4+1 per person per ten minutes. It starts small, but it scales up pretty well.
I just realized that A) I didn't dot here. B) Harmonas don't have fatal die. I already made Solras an Arcadian Amurrun so I'm sticking with my potential mistake.
I would've inserted the mythic crisis character but she doesn't really... function as a character without A) her god or B) Most of the Mythic capability stuff (Divine Source and Beyond Morality, specifically).
Anyways, let this be a fun game!
Does a standard d10 all the time as opposed of only d12s on critical. I say LoA will due its job over the course of a career.
The image fits.
Yeah, decided to stick with the guncat mercenary build since it seemed to fit for killing demons. The wizard-cleric was not an option, sadly, due to 2e reasons.
My Ysoki sniper went with the Jezail. It fits him better.
Are we buried under the rubble? (more specifically, in a way that would interfere with casting spells?)
I haven't read today's gameplay, but you are not buried under the rubble, so, it shouldn't interfere with casting spells.

I created this document to capture notes. Please add to it as you see fit. I gave anyone with the link editor access. Let me know if you can't access it.
@Sol
Same link is in the page header. But yes, no creatures are visible there.
Alright, posted my actions. New to 2e, so alert me if something seems off.
Thank you for moving my Token. Apologies, but I do 99% of my posts on my phone nowadays, so I may be a bit tardy on Token placement.
Also, Solras makes a good point. Do you wish us to use the symbols ( ◆ ◇ ↺ ) in our posts?
Using the symbols is optional. As long as it is clear what is happening. So, for instance, if you have an action that combines actions (like a summoner's "act together") it would be good to group them together.
Just try to be clear. I *will* misinterpret sometimes. Call me out on it, and I will retcon the situation.
Also, I just noticed that I don't have a good way to track Hero Points.
Each of you start with 1. I'll try to think of a good way to track them.
Thank you for moving my Token. Apologies, but I do 99% of my posts on my phone nowadays,
If you can make it clear in the post where your token should be moved, I can handle it. For instance, if you say "I move 25 feet. East 2 and NE 2", it should be clear enough.
I will endeavor to turn the laptop on from time to time for map Shananagins, but I will also appreciate your latitude...lol.
Unless noted otherwise, whatever is your damage result (including any modifiers, buffs, whatever was the result) is doubled.

The only thing not doubled is things that specifically only apply on a crit, like deadly or fatal dice.
Did a little visual adjustment here. Just an FYI.
Instead of a shaven head, I'll go for a more wild-ish look.
Haha. This fly has plot armor or something?
The dice roller seems to know you are level 1...
Not my only game where the first level characters get to roll d10's.
Haha, yeah, who would that be..
Happy Holidays, everyone! I will be a slow poster until Thursday or so.
The usual end of year obligations, you know the drill.
Happy New Year, everyone! Wishing it's at least as good as the last one, preferably better.
Yes, here's to a great 2024!

Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to The Great Mendevian Dodge-Off 2024.
For clarification, Wolf Jaw attacks are not actual bites. You just imitate a jaw by putting your hands together to form a tooth-filled snout and tear into the opponent with that.
Much like THIS, but with two hands and palms facing each other.
So in case that comes up in case of a poisonous creature, or something.
The other thing I wanted to ask about, and perhaps suggest a minor change to the way turns are handled, since it came up in this temple.
Suppose we have only one opponent in the middle of the initiative, like so:
Obahi (19/19 HP) │ Hero Points 1
Solras Pirhatya (17/17 HP) │ Hero Points 1
Virgil (20/20 HP) │ Hero Points 1
Undead Cleric (-13 HP) │ (16 < AC <= 18)
Avenger of the Green (19/22 HP) │ Hero Points 1
Paolo Vital (12/18 HP) │ Hero Points 1
Niall (16/16 HP) │ Hero Points 1
After the Undead Cleric is done with their turn, I would suggest letting everyone perform their turns instead of waiting for Avenger, Paolo, and Niall to finish theirs. So Obahi, Solras, and Virgil would do their turn 2 and Avenger, Paolo, and Niall finish their turn 1. Then the cleric can go, and then everyone else, etc.
As I said, this is in case no environmental effects are happening at the top of the initiative.
Using initiative blocks like that could speed up PbP combat. That's my two cents, but everyone has their style. That I understand.
I thought I had a clever idea, but the d8 didn't agree.

This is why it's good to have different kinds of healers in the party. My fruit is modest, but I can do it all day.
As a former Healer in my AoA group, may I suggest saving your Heal spells for Encounter mode and we use Avenger 's free Focus food in Exploration mode.
The focus Heal spells are absolutely fantastic out of combat healing. Ask my Champion...lol.

Oh, Okay.

I'll think about it. It sort of removes the numbering of rounds.

We should also go up medicine as well. At least the feats, but if somebody wants to do medic or blessed one that would be cool. Since we don't have free archetype, Avenger needs his feats.
I'm going for medicine feats. Just give it time.
Apologies all...I was down with the flu and completely blanked on the game. I'm back...that's for botting me.
Oh sweet. Welcome back. Your turn was not resolved yet, so if you want to do something else... Your call.
I'm perfectly happy with the bot's choice. :)
"Bot's Choice" ... Sounds like a great name for a musical group.
I think Obahi meant "blind man" (Aravashnial)... can he help us?
