Ed's Rusthenge

Game Master fine_young_misanthrope

Rusthenge is a deluxe Pathfinder adventure for 1st-level characters.

The ruins of Rusthenge have stood silent vigil over the southern coastline of Chakikoth Isle for eons, dating back to the era of the runelords of ancient Thassilon. The town of Iron Harbor was built in Rusthenge's shadow, but now that New Thassilon has risen from the depths of the distant past, the old ruins are coming under unexpected scrutiny. Something sinister is afoot in Rusthenge, and it falls to a brand new band of adventurers to learn the truth of the ancient evil that stirs deep within its long-abandoned halls! This adventure also includes new items and character backgrounds, as well as a pair of new monsters tied to the region's notorious history.

Jacen believes that if Kazmuk is going to punch and drink, he should do it with magical hand wraps. The punches would be better AND his hands would be less dirty, a total win-win.

Yeah well if the gold is being split equally six ways, I don't think I have the 35 GP needed to cough up a +1 handwraps. Unless the GM is willing to let me transfer runes to ordinary hand wraps for 1/10th of the price of +1 hand wraps, but we need a crafting check so again, I'm kinda stuck. Only the power of teamwork (and money) can help here...

I'll go back and look for everything we found to make a list.

I do think everything should be split into shares, but that doesn't mean that we have to distribute evenly at any given moment. We can owe people and payout by priorities.

One way or the other, we need to follow the tunnel, correct? Is there something else everyone wants to do? Go talk to the boat people? I'm at a loss other than the lead from the castle. It makes sense to me to follow the bad guys ...

Exactly - enter the tunnels which we now know, from the smith, that the bad guys used to exit the citedel

I think we quickly finish up our business with the boat people and then go down into the tunnels.

GM - will you allow me to transfer the +1 rune from the greatsword to the handwraps at 10% of the item's cost? (Hopefully someone - Peat - has Magical Crafting)

Failing that - everyone - can I borrow like all the money we have to buy +1 handwraps? I'll pay you all back your share of the gold, I just want the +1 now for accuracy reasons.

I don't think that anyone became Expert at Crafting, so I think the Magical Crafting is out. Jacen has normal crafting though.

Totally okay with putting all our resources into it for now also.

With a quorum of 4 people in favour of splitting gold, I calculated the value of our loot so far. Calculating the value of everything but the hand crossbow and poison (Blueberry probably wants those) I calculated a total value of 58.2 GP. Divided 6 ways, that's 9.7 GP each. Handwraps are 35 GP. Between the four willing parties, I can absolutely afford +1 hand wraps.

Kazmuk will make a post about obtain the handwraps. I will pay the balance 3.4 GP back to Caine, who also needs a +1 rune. I owe each of you (Caleb and Jaden) 9.7 GP and Caine 6.4 GP.

Power of friendship (and money) go!

Share-wise, just like I was saying about the greatsword, the calculation should be WITH the hand crossbow (if we are going to divide equally). As it stands, Kaz-math currently gives those items away, AND an equal share of what's remaining. That doesn't work. The cb & poison should either be purchased as part of a share, or designated as "party goods"

So 58.2 + 3.8 (Crossbow and .8 for poison) = 62
I have always tried to keep the math simple.
So 2gp for party funds, 10gp each.
4 people, we tip 1gp for expeditited service = 36gp
9gp each
Kaz retains 1 gp, and has IOUs to Cain, Caleb, & Jacen for 9gp each
Blueberry walks with Crossbow, & 7 gold, and is the keeper of the party's poison

Thalassa has 10gp, she is basically rich.

That is a really good metaphor!

Yeah, I guess flying is a scary gaming thing ... but absolutely anything can be a magic weapon is no problem though.

Jacen will start working on the +1 catnip he knows that Caine has been hoping for.

Nothing much to buy for Thalassa. Anyone can have the 10 gp that needs it. The next purchase I might need will be at level 3 for the gate attenuator.

Blueberry Peat wrote:

Okay, so I know I'm the Investigator, but I'm honestly not sure what pieces of information we've been able to gather. Here is what I think we have:

1. Blanton was a priest of Gorum who seems to have been infected with a rusting disease. His body somehow washed up near our town. Did we discover how that happened? Did he flee, or did someone dump his body? Is that still unknown to us?

2. Captain Perrios was taken up to the manor and I don't think we found a body fitting her description. There were also some other crew members who came with her. Any lead on any of them?

I'll switch my Blanton lead over to Lord Ragnulf. If Perrios seems to still be alive, I'll leave her as my second lead for now.

Sorry, may not have been exactly clear on this. Yes, Jacen, this is information that we should all have. I was mostly directing this toward the GM to confirm that my understanding was correct (though if any party members remembered anything else, then feel free to correct it).

Also, the sailor who hired us gave us a description of Captain Perrios which is distinctly different from the one we got from the sailors now:

Quote:
"Capatian Perrios is a human woman with tan, but fair skin and brown hair. She's got all her fingers, toes, and parts, so no hooks or peg legs on her. She dresses well enough compared to the rest of us, but the most distinctive thing is her tricorn hat."

Is everyone healed up? Does anyone need to rest to recover spells?

GM - How are we doing toward fatigue at the moment? Do we need to rest before going down there, or do we feel like we're good to proceed?

So, I want to say this but its important is heard in the tone I want it to be.

I do and don't care. I do care you have fun, but when it comes to arguing about fiddly things like rules I will let the ADHD take the wheel and stop caring. This happens at work meetings and when I work with students who want to use 11.5 vs 12 point font for an assignment. I will tell you the same thing I tell them " I stopped paying attention half with through that sentence." use the best version of the rules to help you. If you choose a feat and you ABSOLUTELY HATE it, the change whilly nilly. I'm far more concerned that you have a better time than you deal with boring shananagans. SO yes, free build away!

I hope peat is ok! ANybody know anything? Did I completely miss something?

I think thats right. Right now you went through a cave to a new place. there you found a crazy door with old evil language written on it. Past the door were two rust armors who attacked you and past that door was a crazy dwarf, three acolytes, and an altar to a dark god. Youve killed dwarf and one acolyte and shut down the alter.

NOW GO RAISE SOME HECK!

Also, anyone at gencon? Ill buy you a drink/soda if your out there. Im running Alien RPG for Free League.

In full transparency, I have wanted to attend GenCon for roughly ... my whole life. Having attended ComicCon not once, but twice, GenCon still has not yet happened. Have an amazing time!

Sorry, been a little distracted with family stuff and work stuff, and frankly just not spending enough time in front of my computer to remember to check the game. I will get caught up and try to resume being active.

I will be at GenCon tomorrow, so may see if I can track thr Alien RPG stuff down.

Hello everyone,

Hope you GenConners are having a good time. PC2 has come out and so I've gotten the chance to look at Barbarian changes. In short:
-Rage no longer imposes an AC penalty.
-I get to Rage as a free action during initiative.
-I get a +5/+10 feet status bonus to speed at level 3.
-I get to Rage multiple times a combat without penalty.
-Barbarian gets access to Intimidating Strike.

With all that in mind, I'll be swapping out Second Wind, which is honestly quite useless since I can Rage multiple times per minute, for Intimidating Strike, so I can support my party with consistent Frightened 1.

Also, I'll be rolling some Treat Wounds while our cat yells at a cultist, so shout out if you want some Medicine healing.

I am posting this in all my Games.

My situation

We had an family emergency that caused us to need to travel down to Florida to visit my mom. She has been since diagnosed with Major Congestive heart failure. She can't breathe on her own.

We are back in Michigan. My Mom is currently resting at ease at a Hospice, comfortable but still expectant to pass. Our hope is she will become able to have Home hospice so she can do it at home.

I appreciate you. I Thank you.

I feel that I really need to lessen my commitment to these games. I will be stepping away from many including Rutledge.

I apologize.
