1-14 Lions of Katapesh

Game Master J.G

Hello and welcome to my Lions of Katapesh table!

Please fill in the second slide with the information and your token and dot in.

And also declare your glyphs and campaign coins here.

I hope we will enjoy together and have fun.

Even if I practice PbP as a player since a long time I still don't have much experience in PbP as a GM so let me know if you have notice something I can improve.

if that seat's still open I can take it... :)

just for the sake of having a mushroom omelet! :)

took the last spot in rpg chronicles. 4 glyphs to share.

Great to have you at this table, GM Tiger. I hope I will do well.

So we will play high tier. It means that there are level bumps for 1st level characters.

HIGH TIER LEVEL BUMPS

To provide low level players a more fun and fair experience, PCs whose level equals the adventure’s base level (such as a 3rd-level PC playing in a Level 3–6 scenario) gain a temporary boost when playing in the higher level range called a level bump to represent the higher-level PCs’ mentorship and support.

Increase every DC the PC has by 1.
Increase the attack modifiers, attack damage, spell damage, saving throw modifiers, skill modifiers, Perception modifiers, and AC of the PC by 1.
Increase the Hit Point totals of the PC by 10 or by 10%, whichever is higher.

These adjustments are less beneficial than gaining a level, yet they provide the PC more survivability and opportunity to contribute to the adventure experience, reducing the degree to which higher-level PCs might overshadow these less experienced Pathfinders.

You should also remind higher level PCs to apply any mentor boons they might have purchased.

Apply the relevant adjustments to the PC's animal companions, eidolons, and familiars as well. If a value is already increased by applying the adjustment to a PC (such as a familiar's save modifiers and AC), do not increase the value a second time.

Appears Champion Ra will get a level bump.

Then you must decide if you allow friendly fire or not.

Finally you can pick up your pathfinder provisions.

Zaighar is the alias I use for TDM Hobgoblin Hellknight.

2 glyphs.

I have the Rugged Mentor boon, which, if the player chooses to make use of it, increases the benefit from the Level Bump on Saving Throws from 1 to 2. A character can only use 2 mentor effects during an adventure.

Same boon so no help there.

Lesser Healing Potion for his provision.

The Huge bird pops in.
Friendly fire okay
Healing potion for provision.

I don't see how a level bump is less powerful, you get free +1 damage without spending an extra action such as viscous swing. An extra level does not bump up your damage by 1 but a level bump does, unless the extra level would give you the weapon specialization, or you would go from level 4 to 5 and the extra damage comes from +str.

You should be about as powerful as a level 2 character, but not quite. You won't have level 2 wealth (which often comes with a +1 weapon), feats, or other features. That last part doesn't matter for many level 1 characters, but it does matter a little to spellcasters, Rogues, and Investigators. And it matters for 9th-level characters getting a bump--no attribute boosts. Depending on class and level, it might also be a smaller HP increase.

Anyway, the rule for playtest characters is "For the playtest character to take a character option that would normally require a Boon, the playtest character must have all of their credit assigned to a character that has access to that character option."

I'm not sure if Mentor Boons are really a "character option," but it doesn't say anything one way or another so I'll assume it's valid: Shimmer Talu is a Protective Mentor: If you choose her as a mentor, you gain an extra 3 HP from the level bump.

I have two Glyphs.

You don't gain any feat from the lvl bump. That's why most of people consider level bump as less powerful than level up. But this does exist to help anyway. That's the most important.

I also have 4 Glyphs. (And a Campaign Coin.) and am okay with getting splashed etc.

Norbwald has Verdant Wheel's Worldly Mentor

For any PCs benefiting from a Level Bump and whose levels are lower than yours, you increase the Level Bump’s modifier to Perception checks and Initiative rolls to 2.

Taking the appropriate healing item.

Also, I have both played and GMed this before.

Please don't forget to fill in the slide 2. Also with your exploration mode and initiative.

Friendly fire ok. Like Norbwald, I've played and GM'ed this before.

ok, we miss on slide 2:

- exploration mode and initiative from Clarence

- a token for Zaighar

- everything from Norbwald

Please fill this in during the introduction time.

Opps, did the things!
