Opponents need to either see or touch an opponent (and then select that opponent) to cast a targeted spell like Suggestion or Magic Missile. This is right in the CRB (Aiming a Spell, page 213-214).
Exceptions to this include ray spells which allow you to fire when blind or at an invisible target. (CRB page 214).
I hope that this is helpful. :)
Yes.
Only thing I would consider difficult terrain is the pool table and the table as climbing up on them would slow a person down.
Power Attack plus relatively low enemy AC does mean that the DR is less of a problem.
Still the Paladins are also quite capable of destroying evil outsiders.
I just have to keep reminding myself that AC is on a completely different scale than 2e.
Original description:
A cobblestone path winds through the gardens and opens into a well-trimmed lawn bordered by shady trees to the east and west, a flowering hedge to the north, and a tall stone wall to the south. A wooden gazebo sits near the back of the open area.
The hedges are tall enough that you can’t see anyone over in the area, but you would be able to see the roof of the gazebo over the hedge.
Going straight through a hedge would be difficult but there is the cobblestone path (light brown path) that can easily be followed. The green lawn is no impediment regardless of what the groundskeeper might think.
First guess at going through a hedge, treat it as a wooden item. Does Hardness 5, 20 HP to chop a hole 5’ wide seem fair? I will also allow breakage DC 20 Strength check as a full round action.
You could also just jump over it, call it 6’ tall so DC 24 Acrobatics to high jump over it.
I’m sure you can come up with other ways to deal with the hedges.
I am going to say that the tree trunks would be in the center of the trees and provide cover if you go there. I’m not going to have them block movement and at ground level they do not block sight. Someone up in the branches would have enough concealment to hide.
Does all of the above sound fair?
Would someone please Bot Sylvester?
Thanks
So November 17th is the end of this PbP Gameday.
If people could give me the day jobs (if any) I can put them in. We are supposed to report the games by that date and I want to be ready.
I really prefer rules discussion in the Discussion area.
** spoiler omitted **
Could you please give me a link to the 1st edition FAQ? All I can find under the Pathfinder menu is the one for second edition and I would rather not spend a lot of time trying to find the right information.
I am not saying you are wrong, I would just like to review the surrounding context.
For right now, I will allow the maneuverability bonus. I will also start giving the NPCs the bonus for maneuverability.

There isn't a lot of context - I posted the entirety of the FAQ, but here is a direct link to the FAQ page.
In theory, at least, the manoeuvrability bonus (or penalty) should already be included in NPC stat-blocks, but if it hasn't been, I definitely agree that it should - the rules apply equally to everyone.
You are correct, there really isn’t a lot else there. Doesn’t help that they took three different tangentially related questions and dumped them into the same answer.
Given the FAQ, the maneuverability would add.
Looked up the maneuverability for the NPCs and was embarrassed that it is only Average. Strange that a 3rd level spell gives much better flight than native wings on a demon.
Hopefully Grog will roll the skill soon.

Different creatures have odd maneuverability. Dragons for example often have poor maneuverability.
Oh,and day job.
Also a reminder that Khellek is slow XP advancement. Old age and all that :-)
Looks like he lost his voice with all that advice he has been giving out. If I have a reroll left at the end I'll use it.
The first time it worked because although I had intended to double move what I actually posted was a single move away from Grog. That was enough that with him having made the DC20 check he was able to move and attack.
Grog is flying at 60’, she is flying at 50’. He does not have enough of a speed advantage to be able to move and attack each round.
The fly spell does not allow for charging, otherwise you could charge each time you made the check.
The best I think you can do is get above her this round to set up for an attack at a later round.
She also can’t do anything to you when all she is doing is spending all her effort flying away.

If one of the other players has an idea, they can feel free to suggest it.
Greater Teleport, but the result is the same.
Botting Grog in order to try and finish this one way or the other.

Doesn't glitterdust mean we can continue to see her, even though she is invisible?
A cloud of golden particles covers everyone and everything in the area, causing creatures to become blinded and visibly outlining invisible things for the duration of the spell. All within the area are covered by the dust, which cannot be removed and continues to sparkle until it fades.
It is only a -40 penalty to stealth.
Day Jobs:
Sylvester None
Khellek 5 gp
Miriel 10 gp
Grog None
Will assume none for Bedlam and Numair if I don’t see a roll before I have to submit the game.
Thanks!
I knew there wasn’t a problem as worst case you could have used a higher level slot. It is just that I knew the profile value was incorrect and I thought you were getting close.
Prize rolls.
Each GM and Player of a PFS1 game has a 10% chance to win one of our lovely boons at random. Have everyone at your table roll a d20 and a roll of 1 or 20 wins.
I need to do reporting now, so I will be rolling for the prizes.
Sorry, no prizes.
Speaking of which..
Does not losing the magic sword count as
1: acquire a unique magic item and deliver it safely to the Pathfinder Society
or even more importantly
2: can I try to talk with Lady Darchana about the aims of the Dark Archive and aligning with us?
Since you are lent the sword regardless of how well or poorly you do (it is not dependent on performance in any way) I would say no to the first.
Yes, you could certainly talk to Lady Darchana, a neutral wizard.
Lady Dyrianna is also a Spellcaster (cleric) although she is not good aligned,

Has anyone received their chronicles? I mashed the button to send them, but have not received my own which is why I ask.
Sylvester,
It appears you didn’t provide an e-mail. Please direct message me a way to send you your chronicle. I would say that e-mail or Discord are probably the easiest methods.
Bret
It looks like the session has already been reported. It also looks like some of the people have played this before.
You would need to contact bigrin if you intended to use a replay and didn’t mark it.
If you don’t think it should have required a replay, use the report error link instead.
@GM Bret - I have played this already in the Standard campaign so I have a sheet already. I am just confirming that we earned full gold and 2 Prestige for this mission. Thanks. :)
If you want core credit on this character, you need a chronicle sheet showing this character’s character number. You can not use a chronicle for a different character in place of it.
Hmm, I didn't receive a chronicle it seems.
Resent. Let me know if you still did not get it.
Thanks,
Bret
@GM Bret - You could just dump the character sheet on a new slide on the Google Maps for this game or dump the character sheet on Google drive and link it to this thread.
Sylvester’s chronicle, please download and save it.
I will be deleting it in the future as I’m getting close to my storage limit.
If you could open up the permission to this file so that I could access it I would appreciate it. Thanks! :)
Sorry, should be able to view it now.
The lack of Kn Arcana on the opponents’ side also made the circles much more effective. Had they had the skill, I would have used it and had them know what was happening there.
