Loving this!
Hey everyone, just a heads up that I leave for a week on April 25. I'm taking 95 students on a trip to Europe, and internet time will be limited. We can absolutely be done in time with some dedicated posting. I'll prioritize this game (and one other SFS game.)

Am I understanding there's an aquamarine pedestal in here with us? And is the shadowy curtain still there after Mingmei repaired things?

Took the liberty of moving everyone forward. Please adjust accordingly,
NOTE: I am assuming that VeiraKoul is a Monk from the picture, but I am not sure since they don't seem to have their character sheet filled out on their profile still.

The blacked out areas are available, they're just unexplored. Looks like the party is heading towards the center chamber, but there's some hinting that some may want to finish off the peripheral rooms first.

Does t he Arcana check only regulate the amount I could receive or other information about what is going on?
I would like to share what I learned with the others, of course, but not sure to what extent that is permissible. I also don't want to risk violating any mega-game boundaries.

I'm pretty sure we did the Northwest room but it never got revealed. It should be where the third pedestal was.
Southwest was the first room we entered with the first pedestal and sarcophagus

Asking the socially stunted and improper monk to be polite is going to go smoothly!

Heads up team. Tomorrow I leave for a 7 day whirlwind field trip through central Europe with 95 students. Posting will be nigh impossible until May 1. I'll sneak one more in tomorrow before I fly out.

Home! I'm EXHAUSTED. Out of the dozens of countries and cities I've ever visited, Prague is in my top 5.

Just to clarify, the bottom of the walkway around the room is 40' above the floor. How high is the ceiling?
Are we able to plan any? Are we going to stay up here or go down to floor level? Fernard's chosen cantrip and 1L spells for the ARCANE THESIS: STAFF NEXUS: are Light and Gentle Landing. His Staff of Elemental Power has 11/11 charges so anyone can get down with ease.
Reminder: Fernardo has:
and
Prerequisites: trained in Arcana, Nature, Occultism, or Religion
Trigger A creature within line of sight casts a spell that you don’t have prepared or in your spell repertoire, or a trap or similar object casts such a spell. You must be aware of the casting.
If you are trained in the appropriate skill for the spell’s tradition and it’s a common spell of 2nd rank or lower, you automatically identify it (you still roll to attempt to get a critical success, but can’t get a worse result than success). The highest rank of spell you automatically identify increases to 4 if you’re an expert, 6 if you’re a master, and 10 if you’re legendary. The GM rolls a secret Arcana, Nature, Occultism, or Religion check, whichever corresponds to the tradition of the spell being cast. If you’re not trained in the skill, you can’t get a result better than failure.
Critical Success You correctly recognize the spell and gain a +1 circumstance bonus to your saving throw or your AC against it.
Success You correctly recognize the spell.
Failure You fail to recognize the spell.
Critical Failure You misidentify the spell as another spell entirely, of the GM’s choice.
with Arcana (E: 17); Nature (T: 13); Occultism (T: 15); Religion (T: 13) in case it comes up.

No ceiling listed, so let's go 15'.
You're welcomed to plan, though if it turns into planning paralysis, I'll let you know. :-)

To clarify, the center of the room with the enemies is a pit 40 feet below us, and we're on a walkway above? Do we see any easy way down like a ladder or something?
| Dungeon Master S - 2e |
Gotcha. Fixed Mingmei. There is no ladder, though the climb should be reasonably easy.

Not sure of what the souse of the darkness is.
Fernardo and I think at least 2 others have Light spell linked to them that is cast at 4L.
Range: 120'; Duration: until your next daily preparations
You create an orb of light that sheds bright light in a 20-foot radius (and dim light for the next 20 feet) in a color you choose. If you create the light in the same space as a willing creature, you can attach the light to the creature, causing it to float near that creature as it moves. You can Sustain the spell to move the light up to 60 feet; you can attach or detach it from a creature as part of this movement.
You can Dismiss the spell. If you Cast the Spell while you already have four light spells active, you must choose one of the existing spells to end.
Heightened (4th) The orb sheds light in a 60-foot radius (and dim light for the next 60 feet).
NOTE: I scrolled back through. Looks like only Ghirka and Grog do not have one of my Light Spells. That makes all 4 I can cast without loosing one.
| Dungeon Master S - 2e |
Their scream is what layered the bottom layer in darkness. If one of your light spells goes down, we'll see the interaction.

I will note I could throw some AoEs down into the pit with the shadow fiends very easily but I need to know if people down there are okay with friendly fire cause I can't see where anyone is down there the best strategy is just to burst damage the entire area.

Congratulations and thank you. There is only RP left, so in order to cleave tighter to the end of Outpost IX, I've reported it.Chronicles are here. I'll leave the thread open for a couple of days or until everyone confirms their chronicle is good to go.
| Dungeon Master S - 2e |
Thank you all! I really enjoyed this one. I like exploration and dungeon crawling more than political intrigue, so it was a fun return to form.

Yeah if they had actually been able to do much from inside the darkness I'd have tried that but as things stand repeatedly debuffing/nuking was the right call this time I think.
Great game everybody and thank you oh gracious GM for making sense of that.
