Age of Ashes (Team Alseta)

Game Master Delta Arena

"A splash weapon or effect deals any listed splash damage to the target on a failure, success, or critical success, and to all other creatures within 5 feet of the target on a success or critical success." ... "For example, if you throw a lesser acid flask and hit your target, that creature takes 1 acid damage, 1d6 persistent acid damage, and 1 acid splash damage. All other creatures within 5 feet of it take 1 acid splash damage."

https://2e.aonprd.com/Rules.aspx?ID=3182&Redirected=1

Here is the rule for splash damage. I understand it to mean anyone within 5 feet of the creature that is being attacked.

Alright - sorry friends for the friendly fire!!

Also, it seems I misread the rules for 'devise a stratagem'... I made an attack roll to Strike on both turns, and it says:

Choose a creature you can see and roll a d20. If you Strike the chosen creature later this round, you must use the result of the roll you made to Devise a Stratagem for your Strike's attack roll instead of rolling.

Here

It's all good. Due to the low AC and the immunity to crits, the results would have remained the same.

Ardoinel, are you low on HPs?

Also, is there a limited amount of times you can use a healer's toolkit? I didn't know that! :')

I'm back from my trip, but so is a nasty virus that stowed away in my body, so my posting will remain limited for the time being.

I believe that was just flavor text to explain the failure of the 2nd Treat Wounds (which was misattributed to Netkin instead of Ellaeaanda).

Netkin, thank you so much for botting Ellaeaanda, and sorry for the poor character sheet--it's certainly not designed to help another player control her! Interestingly, the alchemist class intimidates me much more that the investigator class!

Glad you're back Resa, sorry I didn't post sooner!

And I'm also glad you're back, Ellaeaanda !

No worries! I don't think I deserve much praise for essentially taking the same Actions twice :') And the feats make sense once you've read the details!

Playing an Alchemist is simple, really : Make Molotov => Throw Molotov

Or use an action (or 2) is you want to pilot the Construct to provide some good old fashioned Melee attacks

Nothing special! :)

Btw, I have to let you guys know that I'll be on holidays from July 25th to August 2nd. Posting will be possible but limited, and I won't have access to maps

Please bot me if needed, especially in fights!

Oooh, that's rough. I had a cold that knocked me out of commission this week myself. Get well soon, and remember to rest and rehydrate as needed!

@Ellaeaanda, Glad to have you back, I hope you recover swiftly.

Investigator character, investigator player. It was flavour text to explain the failure of the 2nd theat wounds, and I did, in fact, thought it was Netkin doing the second healing on Ardoinel.

Welcome back, Ellaeaanda!

Anyone else want the battle axe? I think Ardoinel is usually attacking with his shield now. And, Resa wants agile weapons.

Not me. Ellaeaanda has +0 Str, so she uses agile weapons as well. The axe belongs to Cerrus.

@GM Delta Arena: Did those two charau-ka get attacked by the beast that we allowed to leave the citadel?? I'm trying to piece together months old decisions and memories.

I suspect so.

In other news, a friend of mine on Tumblr was kind enough to do a sketch of Ardoinel for me after I made a donation to the PCRF!

Check it out!

Oh nice! That looks awesome!

@GM Delta Arena: Did those two charau-ka get attacked by the beast that we allowed to leave the citadel?? I'm trying to piece together months old decisions and memories.

Yes. In my head, they were hunting for the adult/wild warg when they were attacked by the malnurished bear that had been trapped in the citadel's basement. I just had a random note on my phone reading "Have the chrau-kas kill and eat the warg. Have them be injured by the bear," that I had left for myself as you were letting each of them free.

Long travel day tomorrow to start a family vacation until the 10th. Still expect to check in, just might be slower than normal.

Last day of vacation is today and a long travel day back tomorrow. Might not be able to post until Monday.

I hope you enjoyed your vacations!

I'm glad to see the set-up for my non AP encounter working beyond, we rush in to squash the bugs hahahahahaha

I'll hold on tonight for more discussion.

Do you want me to roll the readied spell now or wait till they actually approach?

This hinges on a technicality, but, it seems like needle darts cannot be readied, since needle darts takes two actions to cast. Ready says it can be used for a single action or a free action. What are your opinions and readying two-action actions?

This is my reading of the rules as well. Only single or free actions can be readied.

Okay, awesome.

Sorry, Ardoinel. You guys are still going before the centipedes though, as they only rolled a 13 for initiative.

Thanks for the clarification! It doesn't look like the spell was needed anyways. :P

Having a hard time following initiative. Is Cerrus up?

Yes. Both Cerrus and Ardoinel can act.

Sorry, I had interrupted the spiders' turns to check on whether Resa was going to use her reaction. I am taking the rest of spiders' turns now. Then you can act.

Apologies for the confusion.

So sorry! I totally misunderstood.

Ellaeaanda will keep her actions: longbow strike vs yellow, void warp vs red.

Heads up: I have a busy Labor Day weekend with the family. I hope to make time to get to this game but might not be able to.

I do too! I'm going to the Minnesota State Fair on Sunday! :D

I'm back from the State Fair! I had no less than THREE different kinds of cheese curds!

Now I want some poutine with extra cheese curds!

But was there fried butter?!?!!? I hear you northern people have that. It offends my southern heart we didn't do it first.

There was poutine there...as well as dill pickle poutine, apparently. Pickle slices and a ranch dressing drizzle. ( ">﹏< )

I didn't see it, but I don't doubt it was there.

That sounds so good!

@GM: I love the mid-round updates--it helps so much to know if an enemy's still alive or not--but might I suggest that you also add a list of who's up (aka who can post). Something like

'Players X and Y up'

or

'Cerrus up (2 actions only)'

or

'Spiders up--I'm just waiting on a reply before finishing the enemies' turn'

Sounds good, I'll do that going forward.

And sorry I am late with replying i've been working overtime again this week. I'll catch up as soon as I can.

No worries, I know what it's like to feel completely drained after work. Hang in there!

Thank you.

I took my turn. Sorry again that it took so long.

All good! For your sake, I hope work lightens up soon. :)

Thank you, we've finished our summer to fall flip, so workload should go back to normal now... I hope.

Any idea if Resa has a hero point left?

No idea

I have failed to keep track of hero points. But there is something that almost everyone can do to make sure Resa is save without the need for a skill roll.

Hmm, this must be a blind spot in PF2E then. I was looking at options like Treat Poison, Administer First Aid, Stabilize. But I thought they all require a healer's kit.

Try a healing potion.

:headslap: Oh of course..

Pheeew, those level-ups are getting long! Seriously, Pathbuilder is a lifesaver. I'll never thank you enough, Ardoinel!
