No Discord was set up - simply people are free to ping me via Discord chat for a (sometimes) quicker answer, if they so desire.So... is the Discord being set up then?That is of course more than fair DQ :)
I will still leave the option open for others who might be interested in this way of communicating, and clarifying a post here and there. Drop me a PM with your Discord name, and I will create a chat for us.
Ah! I see. Many thanks.
Sorry for the late notice. I may be slow over the next three days. Please bot me if needed.
No worries!
Hang on, I just reread the narration of the kobolds finding us - they are snarling in Draconic. Nee doesn’t speak Draconic. Did they switch to Common? Nee can only
Understand and reply in Common…
Gang, I'll be travelling all day on the 27th, and will be unable to post, most likely. Once I get to my destination, I expect to be able to post as normal or close to it.

We can gloss over that, to keep things moving. And assume they spoke in broken Common.

Hey everyone, just to let you know I will be traveling for vacation from the 10th July, so you will probably notice a decrease in my posting rate this week as the family prepares, and a quasi-total absence from the 10th until the 25th :)
Enjoy! You never look back and say "I wish I hadn't had so much vacation time with my family!"
Truth have a great time
Bon voyage!
Have a good time!
Looking forward to continueing
All ready for tomorrow.
I am back from vacation, so let's get this show back on the road ;)
Welcome back! Hope you feel refreshed.
Some personal s~+~ has hit the fan and I will be taking a break for a couple days. Please bot me if needed.
Hope your fan can blow all the s&%% away DQ…
Hope the s#~+ gets promptly removed DQ. All the best.

Thanks for the kind notes, folks. I am still sorting through some ... stuff. One disaster happened and then several more smaller but still concerning ones. I will be okay but I just do not have the wherewithal to post yet. Keep moving without me and I'll post IC as soon as I can.
sorry for my recent absent. took a bad tumble on a staircase and was on the pain brigade for a bit. still recovering but its tolerable now.
Oof, hope you recover swiftly. Hope you didn't hit your head!
Sorry to hear it Dorian - hope you feel better soon!
Hey GM, I don't really care that much about 1 hp of damage, but I want to understand your ruling why improvising a weapon should deal damage. My understanding of a pommel strike is you still grasp the sword by the hilt, just flipping it around to hit with the pommel. She isn't holding it by the blade. I can see in a crit fumble accidentally cutting yourself but I'm not sure why otherwise I would be expected to take damage. The riskiness/difficulty in performing the move is reflected in the -4 to attack.
Also Jacq would be wearing gloves/gauntlets with her leather armor which should mitigate damage if she did have her hand on the blade.
I had read it as if you were grabbing it by the blade - if not, then all good, no damage. I am not sure I would let the gloves mitigate the damage, but it is irrelevant anyway. It makes more sense to use it as you described of course ;)
Though if you are ‘pommel hitting’ with the sword, I am going to say it only does half damage (1d3). Simply because the hilt is not really a weapon, the balance is off, etc. I think a penalty to hit and decreased damage makes sense.
Surely PF1 has rules for Improvised Weapons….while using….weapons?!? ;p
Pommels are designed to be used as skull crackers. That's why they are big heavy metal bulbs. So they aren't going to hurt more than getting punched. The "not meant to be used that way" is the -4 improvisation penalty. But if you want to halve the damage however that's fine with me just to not belabor the point. For simplicity's sake I'd suggest let's not retcon what's happened so far (I'll take the 1 hp of damage) but we can use the half damage and no damage to self should she need to do that again. That okay with you?
I'll update my stat block for the damage; can't at the moment because I'm on my phone and for some reason the mobile version of the website doesn't let you edit your profile.
All good for me.
Apologies for the delayed posting - swamped with work.
And will also be traveling until the 14th September.
Delays might ensue.
I may be delayed over the next couple days and may also be traveling next week. Looks like this overlaps with GM's busyness anyway, but FYI.

No worries. I am also still traveling and semi absent as DM. Should get back to it over the weekend. Thank you all for hanging in there!
Hey folks, the accumulations of real life stressors have reached peak freak-out and I’m stepping back and away from the forums for the foreseeable future.
Thanks to GMO, my favorite Genetically Modified Organism for running this game. I’m sorry Nee won’t see any further part of the Sunless (and clearly sundered!) Citadel! May all your games be full of wonder and the vagaries of randomly arrived at fate!
I am really sorry to hear it OSW :/
Sorry to see you go, OSW, but glad you're prioritizing keeping the important things under control.
Aw, dang Oceanshieldwolf. Sending you all the good vibes I can.
- Posted from highway rest stop. See y'all when I see you!
Hey gang, after some consideration, and looking at the lack of posts and overall activity, I am pulling the plug on this game. Thank you all for joining in and giving it a try. See you all around the boards!
(I will set this one to inactive within a day or two)
Thanks for the game. Good luck in your future gaming
Sad to see it end, but I do understand. Thanks for the notification.
Super sorry to hear that, I really liked this group. But I completely understand and appreciate your communication. Best of luck to you.
Yeah, I also understand. Thanks for the GMing!
