Aeleth's page

Thanks, but as I mentioned earlier, I think it would be in the best interests of remaining employed if I didn't. =(

Have fun guys. =)

I've played this, but you guys have fun. =)

Player: Fiddlersgreen
Character: Aeleth
PFS#: 40919-6
Faction: The Exchange

Day Job (diplomacy caravan): 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (11) + 13 = 24
Reroll: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (18) + 13 = 31

Aeelth takes a swing at the dretch, before taking a 5ft step off the stage behind Olaf.

attack roll greataxe power attack : 1d20 + 8 + 2 - 1 ⇒ (20) + 8 + 2 - 1 = 29
damage: 1d12 + 10 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 10 + 3 = 18

Probably would not have charged in like that if that were the actual case. No matter. I'll let Olaf bear the brunt of the flying creature's next attack to make up for it.

He is still on the platform, having just finished gesturing in what must have been a magic spell. He's holding a large halberd in his other arm.

If he was only holding his halberd with one hand (having used the other hand for casting), he shouldn't be able to wield it to stab me when I provoked? Halberds being 2-handed weapons?

will: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 2 = 17

Also...I might have gone a little too deep... A caster I can melee... the dark winged form might be a little more tricky...

If I try to acro, I'll run out of movement before reaching the stage anyway, so I'll cop the attack of opportunity. At least the caster on stage can't take one since he does not have both hands on his halberd...

Roaring with fury as his eyes blaze with red energy, Aeleth barrels past the dretch and leaps towards the caster with a mighty swing of Olaf's axe.

acrobatics onto stage from table (unless I can swing at him from the table?): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20

attack roll with greataxe and power attack, raging: 1d20 + 8 + 2 - 1 ⇒ (15) + 8 + 2 - 1 = 24
damage roll: 1d12 + 10 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 10 + 3 = 22

I'm not too concerned this turn, since it does not look like the spellcaster is properly wielding his halberd (2-handed). And the main thing I wanted to know was whether or not I could reach the caster from where I am.

Would I be able to jump onto the table or weave around the tables and chairs to get to where I've indicated on the map with an acrobatics check?

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27

Only other thing I can think of to do is to strip off Olaf's armor and put it on. Actually, I might do that, just in case. It may not be seemly for the party, but it looks like that's going to happen anyway, what with the ripped wedding dress and all...

Fortunately, I'm at -11 not -13. My profile was in error, my character sheet is correct. I have 27 max hp (10 from 1st level bloodrager, 5 from 2nd level monk, 6 from 3rd level brawler, 3 from +1 CON mod and 3 from hp retraining). I am however 1hp from being dead-dead, so if someone can administer healing immediately that would be nice...

Aeleth gasps as he takes the axe to the chest, and goes down, blood pouring from his wound. Lucien cries out in alarm.

"Hey, we've got a man down who could really use some first aid NOW!"

stabilisation: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 1 = 19

Well, ok, I'm stable, but 1hp from death...

With Olaf out of reach for the moment, Aeleth instinctively turns on Red who had taken a swing at him earlier.

"Raaargh!"

dragon style power attack attack roll: 1d20 + 7 - 1 ⇒ (19) + 7 - 1 = 25
damage roll: 1d6 + 5 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 5 + 2 + 2 = 14

As he swings, Lucien calls out to Serak and Dusklord.

"Hey, would you two magic-guys mind bringing down that flying annoyance before he causes more trouble?"

Oh, so Olaf is now within reach, is he? I did not realise that. This works just fine for me.

Spinning around angrily, Aeleth takes a brief moment to center himself, then reaches out quickly to grab Olaf and pull him a little closer.

Move action to use martial flexibilty to gain improved grapple, standard action to grapple.

cmb: 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 7 + 2 = 28

"Not just ducks and hamsters! Aeleth, I heard him talking last night about glueing spikes to kittens! KITTENS COVERED IN SPIKES, AELETH!" Lucien cries, egging Aeleth on.

"Raaaargh!" Aeleth bellows as he smashes green square in the face!

dragon style power attack attack roll: 1d20 + 7 - 1 ⇒ (20) + 7 - 1 = 26
damage roll: 1d6 + 5 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 5 + 2 + 2 = 15
dragon style power attack confirmation roll: 1d20 + 7 - 1 ⇒ (19) + 7 - 1 = 25
crit damage roll: 1d6 + 5 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 5 + 2 + 2 = 15

I think green's gonna be down from that.

Well since Red is frightened...

Lucien looks at the terrified Red, and then to Green.

"Hey Aeleth! That one with the green leather belt. He sat on a hamster the other day! I saw it with my own eyes!"

Aeleth, who had been looking around in confusion, suddenly focuses his attention on the unlucky raider.

"Any man who sits on a hamster is a villain through and through!" he bellows. "FEEL THE BACKHAND OF JUSTICE!!!"

Dragon style, power attack

backhand of justice attack roll: 1d20 + 7 - 1 ⇒ (12) + 7 - 1 = 18
backhand of justice damage roll: 1d6 + 5 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 5 + 2 + 2 = 14

Weapon? What's a weapon?

will: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 2 = 14 Hopefully this makes it?

"Hey Caboose, now's the time to get a little bit angry, ok?" Lucien quickly mutters to Aeleth.

"Yeah... I'm not sure how to do that?" Aeleth replies tentatively.

Lucien sighs.

"... Those guys kick ducklings, that is, baby ducks, for fun."

Aeleth's eyes widen and his vacant expression suddenly clouds over as his eyes begin to glow dimly.

The bird turns to the rest of the Pathfinders.

"What? I work with the tools I'm given, ok? Don't judge me."

initiative roll: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 2 = 16

.5d6 ⇒ (6, 5, 6, 5, 6) = 28

Ah, ok. Sorry, it looked like you were still addressing the wedding crowd in general. XD

Psst. Dusklord, I think we already salvaged the wedding. We're in an 'influence' round now.

Serak, I've sent you a link to your chronicle.

I'll check tonight whether or not Serak was included in the reporting for the last game.

I'm all for having Serak back since we still have a spot for him and he dropped for reasons legitimately beyond his control. What do the rest of you think?

"-Oh hey Duskie! Sorry, I was trying to count to 30 in my head and I lost count at 52. What were you saying again?"

No take 10s, sorry!
Also, Aeleth - could you please explain the +13 modifier? I didn't understand the +5 added for "misc"

+5 misc mod comes from 2 sources:

Lucien sighs as Exiel leaves him with the town idiot.

"Right. Well, whilst we're here, might as well meet the big-wigs, so to speak. Aeleth, I will do the talking. You keep quiet and focus on the portal. Remember, Aeleth, not a word..."

Aeleth nods mutely as the thrush directs him towards the aristocrats on the ship

Ladies and gentlemen, I hereby introduce Exiel's former familiar, now Aeleth's familiar handler, Dr Lucien L. Church.

Lucien buries his face in his wing.

"I can't believe I am doing this... alright Exiel, but only because I like being able to count to more than 5."

"I can count to 5! 1, 3..." Aeleth begins.

"Portal closing, Aeleth!" Lucien quickly interrupts, and the big man quickly claps a hand over his mouth and falls silent.

"Oh-b----" Aeleth begins to yell, but the thrush in the girl's hands quickly flies to the big man's shoulder and slaps a wing over his mouth.

"Ok, buddy, step one. Only speak when I tell you to speak," says the thrush identified as Lucien. "Exiel, what is this? What am I, a baby-sitter now?"

"Why are we sitting on babi---" Aeleth begins to ask, only to get a wing in his face again.

"Not a word, Aeleth! The portal won't open this way!" Lucien quickly interrupts. Aeleth quickly falls silent.

"Exiel..." Lucien begins to protest again, only to be quickly interrupted by the iridescent-eyed man.

"Oh that's ok, Mister Exiel, I can count and sell things just fine on my own," Aeleth replies cheerfully.

"Oh boy! A party! Look at all the people!," Aeleth exclaims excitedly as he rushes to join the aristocrats on the ship, bounding about in a most undignified manner.

Before he can make it too far, however, he is grabbed by a Tien man with strangely iridiscent eyes. He is well-muscled (not in the same league as Aeleth, but perhaps in the league just below) and has a commanding air about him. Beside him in a comely young girl wearing a helmet that seems out of place above her delicate white dress and resplendently white-feathered wings. The young girl pets a little thrush in her hands as she regards Aeleth with a bemused smile.

Aeleth will only bring his courtier's outfit and his Cracked Magenta Prism ioun stone.

Nothing to hide. =)

GM, will the ioun stone count as jewelry to accompany the courtier's outfit, or will I need to purchase additional jewelry as well? If needed, I will also purchase the jewelry.

Ok, it's sounding like we technically can bring Max, but we'll be taking social-check penalties. We've been reminded that this is primarily going to be a social-encounter game.

My take is that if it is just Cody's social rolls that would be affected, I'd leave it entirely up to him. But if it is going to affect all our rolls, I'd ask Cody to consider leaving Max behind.

As for Aeleth, I'm nutting out with the GM the details of how his social interactions will work.

Aeleth will leave his armor behind (it's not masterwork, so it might not be fancy enough), and will purchase a courtier's outfit.

Valsin ... gestures dismissively towards Max, "If you are adamant in taking it... it must not be seen by the noble lords and ladies in attendance.... I don't like these nobles more than you do, but orders are orders after all."

He did also say Max "must not be seen by the noble lords and ladies in attendance", which is the part that worries me, especially if we're going to be on the same boat as them. =(

I understand that a hunter is meant to work along with his AC, and I'd love to RP Aeleth losing philosophical arguments to an ape, but this just isn't the right scenario for that. If the guy giving the briefing specifically says Max "must not be seen", I think we should at least try to disguise Max, if we bring him at all.

Cody, unlike Aeleth, I'm actually a little worried about what might happen if it is discovered that we smuggled a creature on to the island when we've been specifically told not to. Especially since it's a diplomatic mission where we're supposed to make a good impression. Flouting their rules does not seem like the best way to do it...

Do you have a hat of disguise by any chance?

Does someone smart want to ask Valsin what might happen if Max is discovered?

"I was able to count to ten. Did I win?"

Aeleth would have a preference for the second boat. All evidence to the contrary, I will actually make a serious attempt at diplomacy.

"Ok Duskie, I will not say anything for the next ten seconds. One. Two. Five. Six. Seven. Nine. Eleven. Ten."

I can't see it being too long since it's an either-or thing. Probably more of info-gathering opportunities. And though Aeleth doesn't care much about info, I like having info.

"I am being very quiet. I am not speaking, not a single word. No one is hearing a single word from me," you hear Aeleth saying proudly.

Second boat sounds good to me, since it gives us more opportunity to interact with the guests? Alternatively, is this something we should divide and conquer on? Have the talky-people go on the second boat with the guests, and the less-talky people go ahead to the island in advance to check for holes in the security?

"Oooohhhh.... I get it. It's like a game! A game to see... who can go without talking the longest!"

His voice drops to a whisper.

"I will be very quiet. Not speaking at all. Just silence. You won't even hear me. Not at all. Not two words. Completely silent."

Is Valsin going to elaborate on the armor-related requirements for the wedding?

Aeleth will opt to take the earlier boat, unless there is something we need to remain in Absalom for before the wedding? Is it a choice between going early and gathering info before going?

"Oh don't worry I know weddings are important. I will not cast any electricities on the airy rats. Airy rats are probably immune to electricities anyway."

Don't worry, Aeleth's an idiot, but I the player will not let his stupidity jeopardise the mission. I actually have quite the decent diplomacy modifier.

"Why yes, I am ok, and I always eat the strange mushrooms. My mother always told me not to let food go to waste. Except the ones that try to eat me, because, that would just be weird."

"The groom is dragon and the bride is a double-gangster? I don't to be the groom anymore. I don't want to marry a double-gangster. I don't even want to marry a single-gangster. A double-gangster would be a lot of trouble. I will let the dragon-groom be the one to eat them."

Someone want to also ask about the armor we are allowed to wear to the wedding?

"Going to a wedding. Got it. I will volunteer to be the groom. I will marinate Max to be my best man."

"Psst. Duskie. Do you know the words to the happy birthday song? I forgot the first line. Actually, maybe you should just sing the whole song for us just in case someone here, who is not me, does not know the words. It will be very embarrassing if one of us does not know the words when we need to sing the song."

If I were Valsin, I would probably be a little worried right now. XD

Could someone smart ask for me what qualifies as "finest armor", and whether or not we need to bring any wedding gifts? Are there any particular guests we should pay special attention to?

"Ah, hello Max! Hello Cody. Hurray! There are nine of us again!"

I've had one bite on replacements so far, but the guy only has a level 2 character. Thoughts?

Our next game is a tier 3-7 though. =(

"Hello, sorry I am late. I was just chatting with the spirit of my dead friend, Leonard."

"Everyone else sees the glowing person right?"

There is no glowing person.

Link to the new game. Dot when you are ready. =)

"A special assignment just for me? Is it because I am the best?"

"Right. Use diplomacy to bring back the delicate heads of the Ardisian authority-person, Mister Vilk. Got it."

"I had no reason to let it devour... my reason. I had no reason at all," Aeleth declares firmly, thoroughly oblivious to the irony in his statement.

[dice=Day Job]1d20+9

Oops, please add another +5 to this roll. Faction journal bonus. Total of 31 for day job roll.

Well in that case, unless anyone objects, I'll start prepping Midnight Mauler.

"I had no reason to let it devour... my reason. I had no reason at all," Aeleth declares firmly, thoroughly oblivious to the irony in his statement.

Day Job: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (17) + 9 = 26

Yep. I believe that after the previous scenario, we discussed what scenario I should run next in light of Stephani having played Sanos Abduction.

We found that none of you had played Midnight Mauler, so that was suggested as a replacement. If we do Midnight Mauler, the advantage is that I know the scenario better (having played it) and Stephani can save her replay for another scenario. But I'm happy to do either.

One more thing. GM Iff, please put me on slow track for this scenario. I am on 5.5 XP at the moment, so putting me on slow track for this scenario gets me to 6xp, in line with the rest of the party.
