Sincerest apologies - I'm trying to write something more today, but I'm not really seeing a good way to include Zeldrith in what the rest of the party's doing. Perhaps he joins Persephone at the cathedral after he gets back?
On that note, I would also like to apologize - I feel that (perhaps due to the hour I normally write my posts at) the quality of my writing has been slipping, and I'm trying not to let it go too far. Just wanted to check in with everyone else and see if there's anything I need to do to improve.
Well, I mean, he's only just getting back from Magnimar, right? Having him show up at the Cathedral seems fine!

Zel and Arrian are in a tougher spot since we're away from the others of the group.

Like I said, joining in on Ano's plight and her mom being the biggest b$tch in Sandpoint is entirely optional. I will say that I'm probably close to wrapping up the whole "finding a solution for Ano's bloodrage" with Juriya's family.
Incidentally, unless Juriya plans on following Donimah to explain things in more detail once Fosyo leaves, that'll be Donimah leaving this scene, unless Ano's plan on bringing us together for a more full-group scene! :D
Yeah, woke up a little late today. I might explain what the rough plan is to Donimah, but I plan to be able to let the plot be furthered come Monday.
Alright, that should be it for me until the plot advances.

Here's something funny I found out in my trip to the Czech republic. "Ano" means 'yes' in czech!
I'm so in love with this Clovermark side story. You know, it kind of hits home. My wife is a little overprotective, and I guess it's ok for now because our daughter is 6 months old. But I do worry how it's going to be when she grows up a bit.
And also, it's giving Donimah another route to kindness. A sneaky one.
I'm awarding the whole team a Hero Point. Even those not involved in the kerfuffle.
@Zel: Do you want to take control of your entire family's plot, or can I intervene? I mean not immediately but at some point.

Makes me really happy that you're loving this story idea I have for Ano. I initially wanted Fosyo to be a simple paranoid kind of parent, but I decided that it would feel more fleshed out if her worrying turned her bitter towards everyone, especially with what she already lost.
And, to not spill much of my life as possible, I'm basing this on my own experiences growing up into an adult with autism. They often say that to artists and writers, life experiences can be great inspiration.
Just a head’s up, I will be absent for most of today, hanging out with family that I haven’t seen in a few years.

What, no walls of text today???
I'm teasing btw. :)
pffft that’s funny
wasn’t as much of the day as I thought-our favorite restaurant closed in February so that threw us for a loop. Other than that we still had a blast.
@Zel: Do you want to take control of your entire family's plot, or can I intervene? I mean not immediately but at some point.
Apologies - didn't see this until now. Either way is fine - I have no real preference.
Have a great day, Ano. Being with family is awesome!
Visiting was yesterday but it was well, even if we learned our favorite restaurant shut down in February.
Nuuuuuuuuu, I hate it when that happens! D:
I can't believe this is the first time the party rogue actually did Rogue things.
Missed the comment about Juriya telling Ano to not let Fosyo know our rogue has thieves tools. Like that’s the last thing that paranoid magic hating mother needs to know xD
Haha yeah. Don't tell her Juriya can eventually cast Charm Person at 3rd level either.
Kitsune time. (I realized if I'm flanking to get Sneak Attacks in on a full attack, 1 get essentially 2d6 thanks to my natural attack, and now themed like the right moment to switch forms.)
I was waiting for this reveal! Donimah's gonna honestly be kinda jealous going forward: she has to cast spells to change into alternate forms, but Juriya can just do it! ;)
Haha I imagine. It's probably best not to be anything that might get mistaken as a dog around Goblins, so the reveal for the third form will have to wait :)
ngl I expected that reveal to happen later. but it’s gonna be hilarious when the rest of the party-especially Arrian-realize Ano knew this whole time. might even have it where Cherry didn’t know Juriya’s a kitsune this whole time for the funny
Hah that would be funny. I jumped the gun admittedly when I saw that I could be doing an extra sneak attack per turn when full-attacking while flanking. Until level 3 (Charm Person and DEX to damage) she's kind of pitiful in combat, so I want to make up for that
Ouch. For some reason I thought the Disable Device text said rogues (inclusive of KTs) can disable magical traps...
Restriction: Characters with the trapfinding ability (like rogues) can disarm magic traps
Guess I'm going with 2 levels of Empiricist with Accomplished Sneak Attacker at 5th level then.

Why 2 levels?
For this one specific ability which will fix Juriya's Perception deficit:
An empiricist’s ability to notice the minutiae of almost everything that happens around him allows him to make shrewd and insightful calculations about people and even inanimate objects. At 2nd level, an empiricist uses his Intelligence modifier instead of the skill’s typical ability for all Disable Device, Perception, Sense Motive, and Use Magic Device checks. He can also use his Intelligence modifier instead of Charisma on any Diplomacy checks made to gather information.
Perception and Sense Motive go up by a whole 6 points. Disable Device and UMD also increase by 1 point as well, and Empiricist fits the character both roleplaying-wise as well as the aforementioned mechanics.
Slightly unrelated note, I had no idea Juriya had vitiligo!
I made her human appearance a while ago, it isn't exactly the most noticeable vitiligo in her human form due to her skin tone. It was in the description, but it wasn't stated to be vitiligo, since I'm unsure if magical-chicanery would actually count as vitiligo.
It becomes piebaldism in her Kitsune and fox form, which becomes far more noticeable.
Secondly, DM, would you allow for Fractional BAB ? She's going to be dipping her paws in three different classes at once, so the extra +2 or so BAB would help.
Yes, fractional bab is a great optional rule. Consider it online.
Alright. Unsure if anyone but Juriya will have use of it, but at least now she'll be slightly more viable, disaster Rogue/Investigator/Alchemist that she'll be :)
I sincerely need to draw headshots of the party. because I absolutely want to. just need refs for everyone else lol

I'd have to consider what he looks like; I kind of like the jpg I found of him on the site.
Yeah. If you do make headshots, make sure to share them with the rest of the party :)

Of course we just broke and entered; they might be mugshots!

I think HeroForge would be sufficient for a reference? Long as I also get the proper skin color, hair color and eye color that is. Hit a snag with my art and need something to help me get back to it.

I'll budget the time to give it a shot. :)
There's 70ft from the door to the first gobo. You can pre-buff before the surprise round.
Remember that in surprise rounds you can only do a std action.
I whipped up a HeroForge of Donimah, but I'm not sure how to preserve a screenshot of it so I can get it to Ano.

I think there’s a trick where if you upload it on Discord and share it through the [url] text format, but that’s assuming you have a Discord account.
Alternatively you could try a way through a Google Docs or something?
I'm on Discord! :D

Oh! Then you could post that on a server, open the link in a new tab then copy the URL. I think.
How do I...um...post a heroforge thing on a server?
Unfortunately I can't help since Discord hates me and the feeling is mutual. :(

In that case Arrian will cast Divine Favor before entering the room.
A standard *or* a move action but not both are options for a surprise round I think.

If you took a screencap of the HeroForge (I think there’s an option to download it as an image) you upload it as an image on Discord

Testing, testing, 1, 2, 3...
To clarify, that "facepaint" circle isn't literally what that looks like, that's supposed to be a stand-in for the broken ring of runes around Donimah's left eye. The actual runes are the ones found on the Cypher Gate, which can be seen in these pictures here and here. Here are a bunch of Thassilonian runes that can be used for the component runes in the circle, the only specific details are that the circle isn't a full one, so there should be a noticeable gap, probably on the lower half, and the one directly over Donimah's eye is the one labelled "greed." And if you decide to include the medallion in your headshot, rather than a generic star shape it should be a shaped like a Sihedron.
I think I was able to provide a direct link to the model I've been using for Zeldrith in the Homepage URL section of my profile. It's more or less accurate, except that his left arm has seven fingers and a bone spur at the elbow.
Anyone wanna take Donimah's offer of an enlarge person spell up?
Juriya will decline since she's entirely dex-based, enlarging her makes her even less likely to hit.
