Let's discuss out-of-character stuff here.


GM Screen | AoN PF2e GM Screen | Mentorship and PC Level Bumps | Pathfinder Provisions | Downtime | Area of Effects Templates | ◆◇↺

Hello, everyone! Welcome to the game. Before we begin, here are some important instructions for a smooth experience:

1. Sign up on the Sign-Up Sheet (linked above) and provide Player Name, Character Name, Organized Play Number, Character Number, etc. We'll use the RPG Chronicles website for this.

2. Fill in your character and minion tokens, and marching order on page 2 of Slides and Maps (linked above). Also, update your character’s basic information, core stats, and skill modifiers on Macros (linked above).

3. Ensure your character's stat block/header includes HP, AC, Saving Throws (Fortitude, Reflex, Will), Perception bonus, and Speed.

4. Area templates (burst, cone, emanation, line) are on pages 3-7 of the Slides and can be copied to the Encounter Map.

5. Post regularly, preferably at least once daily and once on weekends. Follow the Organized Play Foundation Community Standards: "Explore, Report, Cooperate." Non-consensual character conflict is prohibited and can result in Infamy points.

6. I will roll initiative checks and use a block initiative system. PCs in the active block can post their actions, resolved in posting order. I will roll secret checks; players roll saving throws.

7. Use these symbols in combat posts: ◆ for single action, ◆◆ for two actions, ◆◆◆ for three actions, ↺ for reaction, ◇ for free action.

8. We’ll use the X-Card for safety. If something makes you uncomfortable, include '[X-Card]' in your post or message me privately.

9. Regular posting keeps the game flowing. Kindly inform us of any absences. Provide botting instructions if you'll be away.

10. Remember, the goal is to have fun! :)

Thank you, and let's embark on this exciting adventure!

Yep.

4 glyphs.

Since we're high tier, Rose and Horul should get a Level Bump.

Protective Mentor here. (Radiant Oath; Admired)

The familiar voice causes Shayla to turn. "MEADOW!" she squeals, running to the ranger and gives her a big hug...

A look of consternation crosses Meadow's face as she accepts the hug from Shayla. "Oh. Shayla's on this mission?" She manages to hide her feelings and returns the rogue's hug.

I can't help but think of this bit from Community here.

Oh Britta's in this?

I have 2 glyphs.

Meadow has Worldly Mentor and she takes a moderate healing potion as her provision.

Correct, at 20 CP, we are high tier, and thus, Horul and Rose will need a level bump. Don't forget to kindly reflect the level bump increase and those from mentor boons on the Macros.

GM says we must decide as a group to follow this second interloper.

I say we do it!

What do you all think?

"Yeah. We're totally capable of dealing with spirits. And we won't need to worry about any betrayals." Meadow glances at Shayla and bites her lower lip. "I mean...what are the odds that Shayla gets possessed again and launches a sneak attack against us? It can't be more than 50/50, right?"

Funnily enough, I'm running that exact scenario and managed to possess one other PC. Shayla succeeded on her save and just had an unwanted passenger.

They allowed Silence into the theater? What'd you go see? ;)

I couldn't take Silence. Not after 'the popcorn incident.' It was a scary movie and gets too jumpy. I saw Weapons on Tuesday and Nobody 2 today.

Weapons was pretty good. 4.7 out of 5. Nobody 2 wasn't as good. Maybe a 3.7 out of 5 but I think I enjoyed it a little bit more. Lots of cartoonish violence and a silly scenery chewing performance by the main villain.

Silence soundlessly swoops down to assist the rogue.

Fun Owl Fact: Owls are known for their silent flight. Their unique feather structure and wing shape allow them to fly with minimal noise, which helps them ambush prey.

Rose, don't you want to hero point your second flat check? You missed the concealment then rolled a Nat 20! :)

Technically, with a failed concealment check, the action is wasted before rolling. Knowing a "20" is coming, and using Hero Points to go sideways into a parallel dimension and snatch CS from F is... not possible without a liberal interpretation of how probability events in succession are supposed to function.

Yeah what Rannarix said, effectively it is playing a system, so the most fair case is to reroll both: conceal and fire, but it would need to be agreed with GM before. And chances of success in such setup (concealed are lower),

One action to pick it up and another action to wear it if you want to free the hand holding it.

Hello. This is an FYI that I'll be away in nature starting this coming Friday 10/17, returning Sunday 10/19 when I will catch up and resume posting.

As always my hope is that since this is a weekend the disruption will be minimal to none. Bot as necessary.
