Alayi Ah'Mheed's page

Seeing Josria's prayer at the alter, Alayi is wondering what, or who, she pleased. She pleased someone, but it couldn't have been Sarenrae, right? She thought.

Following along, Alayi agrees. "I think thats a good idea, if we ever get blocked from the main doors. Since all I have are my blades, I can keep watch when we rest."

Sorry about being gone for a bit. Got another cold and missed a day of work. So kinda was scrambling there for a bit.

Alayi just sighs at the altar. But she soon follows along, keeping her eyes open.

Perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8

She isn't good at this, is she.

Alayi looks quizzically towards Josria. "Catfolk like to collect trinkets? I thought those bird folk were the only ones that did that."

I believe it is to with crits, but I could be wrong.

Alayi relaxed her grip upon her shortbow as the last of the creatures fell. Annoying creatures. She thought as she walked forward and kicked one over to inspect it. "Dirty creatures. Guess these hallowed halls leave much wanting if these infest this place."

Putting away her bow, Alayi goes to retrieve her scimitar before turning to the rest of the group. "So which way now?" She asks.

First Round

Seeing the foul creatures, Alayi drops her scimitar and draws her shortbow. She takes aim and fires.

Don't know which right now. Currently away from a computer.

Shortbow Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20

Shortbow Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2

Second Round

She continues her limited barrage upon her target.

Shortbow Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

Shortbow Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 6

I'm here. Though I didn't see my initiative roll. So I don't know when to act. @_@

I am beginning to feel better. So hopefully it will just be work killing me slowly.

But anyway, I just found out that the roll20 map doesn't work on phones! So I definitely need to figure out some time to squeeze in about a hour a day for computer use. >.<

Sorry about disappearing the last few days. Had work, and came down with a slight head cold that I am getting over with.

Will try to get back into the swing of things, hopefully soon.

Following the others into the building, Alayi gazes upon the mural as well.

Knowledge Local: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25

She agrees with Reja's assessment of it. "Maybe the man did something great, and only said it was Sarenrae's doing." she lets out a chuckle. "Even though it was all him, and not a deity that did it." She shakes her head before following along.

Wow, I got very lucky on that roll. Too bad it wasn't religion. >.<

Ready to continue and complete this task, Alayi bows and says; "At you command Lady Almah."

She hurries along with the group. And shrugs when she hears Reja's question. "What I was taught, does not cover old ruins in the desert. But what ever it is, we'll clear it just the same." Alayi draws her scimitar and twirls it a few times. "I am ready."

Alayi bows to Lady Almah when she chooses to pay out the 200 gold to the each of them. But with the group's conversation going towards gnolls, she simply shrugs. "Even I know of the ruthlessness of the gnoll tribes that live out here in the desert. Ferocious and cruel. And were going to assist Lady Almah in removing them from that ruined village." She crosses her arms across her chest. "And that is mostly what we came here to do after all."

Perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12

Alayi hurriedly searches for her scimitar as the creature, she decides to pull out her kunai.

But before she can do much, she hears the thing shriek as it is obliterated by Josria's magic. Blinking a couple times as she stares at the dead thing, Alayi is somewhat surprised by how quickly it's life ended. "Huh. Fragile little creature. I hope its 'luck' does not persist after it dies."

Watching her weapon goes flying, Alayi begins to curse furiously. "Damn it! What ever god that covers fate should have a incinerating red hot, burning coal up their nethers!" Turning back towards the group, Alayi seems to have a shimmering aura as she takes a breath. "Um... Could someone help me recover my scimitar?"

She is completely ignoring the poor goat in the cacti, upset over what just happened.

Alayi sighs, swinging her head, side ro side. Looking ahead at the cacti, she frowns. "Guess I'll help as well. A scimitar is no machete, but it should work the same." She states flatly.

Drawing her scimitar as she walks to the cacti. She twirls her blade, once, then twice, before chopping her way into the field.

Alayi's eyes widen at the sight. "Oh dear, that isn't going to be much use anymore."

With the hunt starting, Alayi follows along. Her demeanor has changed since leaving the camp. "I don't really need light. Since I can see in the dark anyway." She says in a more relaxed mannor.

Walking along, she tries her best to keep her eyes open for the creature's tracks.

Perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9
Survival: 1d20 ⇒ 5

And the rocky hills confounds her to no end. "Blasted shadows." She draws her scimitar due to the rushing shadoes around them. "I hope we find them soon."

"Greetings Mahk." Alayi flatly states. "Lady Almah has commanded us to hunt these 'pugwampi' creatures. She has also commanded that we bring Dashki along with us. So you will be joining us in this endeavor." Giving him a nod of her head, she then introduces herself. "This one is called Alayi. A servant guard of this caravan."

Looking over the young man, she becomes a bit curious. "This one apologies for herself, but what skills do you have with... Hunting?"

"Of course Lady Almah. This one will assist the group with finding one of these creatures. And we will recruit that one Garavel scouted." Alayi bows her head. She turns to the group. "Lady Almah has spoken. Lets find Dashki and then this new recruit."

I'm alright with a sixth player as well.

Not really. Just trying to find my own... I guess sweet spot of working. And so far it's been driving people to and from bars.

But I'm getting used to working late nights.

And about dialect, I still think Alayi has a voice, and dialect similar to Pharah of Overwatch. Just sounds appropriate for her.

Following along, Alayi keeps an eye out for suspicious persons. But tries her best to not stare at their shadowy stalker. Indeed. Well, I'll wait til he gets close to grab him.

She walks up beside Reja and taps her on the shoulder. She leans in to whisper to her. "We're being watched by him back over there" Alayi makes a small thumbing gesture in front of her towards where the shadow watches. "Try not to look, we don't need him to run just yet.

Continuing to whisper, she speaks to Adroushan. "Do you have a plan to corner Dashki?

I'm still around. Working for Uber is something.

It is honestly understandable. Can post online from nearly anywhere. So you can always post and keep up with this.

While in person games tend to only happen when a group has free time dedicated to such things. And mostly requires days off, which happens mostly on the weekend.

Week Days, Online. ^_^
Weekends, In person. ^_^

And everyone needs at least some time to decompress from the stress and riggers of work and everyday life.

But anyway, it is nice to find out about the good days this pbp will be active!

And going back to locations of us in real life, I'm out west in Sacramento, California. Most of you are three hours ahead of me! @_@

Alayi finishes sifting through the debris of whats left of the Harrower's Wagon. Not finding anything out of the ordinary, she walks over to the group. Listening in on the conversation, she tilts her head. "Hm, seems like we need to speak to this... Dashki." She frowns somewhat. "He sounds... Foul."

After the Fire

Once the fire was taken care of, Alayi assist the others with what ever tasks they may need. "This one is here to... Help."

The Investigation!

With orders from the princess, Alayi tries to recall if she heard of anything called the Legacy of Fire.

Knowledge Local: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17

She tilts her head in thought. "I think I might have heard of it. But I am not sure."

Afterwards, she begins to rummage through what remained of the harrower's wagon.

Perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

With her search, Alayi doesn't even truly know tjat Garavel is speaking.

Well, let me jump in with the languages Alayi knows.

With Kelish, I agree with Persian. I think it fits. But with Ignan and Halfling, I'm not sure of. Haven't seen anyone use those two languages yet in pbp.

Sorry about not posting lately. Just recently got a new job driving for Uber. Will try to post later tonight.

Alayi pushes herself off the ground and shakes her head. "Be quiet and just push." She remarks as she puts herself back against the wagon and pushes.

Str Check: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5 ... Well, at least it wasn't a 1. But I still don't think Alayi helped. >.>

Not getting any traction on the dirt, she just kicks dust away from her with no real progress. At least she didn't fall on her face this time.

Hehe... Just moving a wagon seems to become a comedy of somesort. :P

Alayi puts her back into to try to move the wagon.

Strength Check: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3 ... Alayi must have slipped. >.>

She pushes with all her might, and the wagon shifts slightly. "Here we g-" But as it moves, she slips on a patch of sand and land face down on the dirt, causing a small dust cloud to appear. "Ooph."

Alayi nods to the Merchant Princess Almahas, she heads down to help pull wagons out of the way. While fire might not hurt her much, she can still feel the tingling heat.

Rushing to a wagon that is nearby the conflagration, she puts her shoulder against the wagon and puts her whole body behind it to push it away from the fire. "Come on! Move!"

Alayi can't help b but to watch, wide eyed as the little elemental sent up a cloud of dust near Adroushan's wagon. Letting out a slight chuckle, she shakes her head. "Very playful, that little one." She speaks in her melodic tone as she walks around to the elemental. "I have to say I haven't seen a elemental before, even though I have their blood of fire within me." She looks to Reja with a slight quizzical manner. "Do you have other elemental servants as well?" She asks nicely.

But with the conversation of religion and belief begins to go around, she shakes her head. "Why beholden to something that 'Might' assist you in your time of need? Best look forward to using you own skills. Be it with blade, word, or magic you have at your own disposal." She begins to walk forward towards the lead of the caravan. "This one has not seen much use to pray. When no one is willing to speak for you." She rests a hand on the pommel of her scimitar as she walks, returning to gazing across the desert wastes.

Hello again too!

Finally got to post in the pbp thread. It is nice to meet you all.

Alayi walks along with the caravan in typical Qadira garb, in addition to her chain shirt and buckler, and weapons she has upon her. She tries her best to keep her black hair out of her face as she keeps a look out for anything roaming the wastes.

She recalls what Garavel said on the way to the location he mentioned in the briefing before this quest started. Well, at least this is different. To secure the ruined village out here, it is nothing like the labor I had to do back in Katapesh. The sights are not that different though, the hot air, barren landscape... The lack of buildings, but... This is such a boring place! I hope to be done with this and earn my freedom soon. The heat and the barren land doesn't seem to have much of an effect on this young Ifrit woman, other than her apparent boredom, which she quickly hides when one of the other guards comes by.

She listens to the conversation of the other participants as they travel, she gives a quick glance to each one during the journey. Huh, That fat one must be rich and foolish by the looks of it. Same with the one riding in the wagon, the rich part though. Then there is a woman that has a pet made of air? Is that what is called a elemental? Ah, oh well. Then there is a woman that looks like a cat. Seems rather curious too. What strange people were gathered. She can't help to shake her head at hearing the two 'rich' people speak about dust. And she can't help to speak up, in a slight melodic tone. "You two. This world is a very dirty place. You may clean yourselves as many times as you like, but it will not change a thing. And best get use to the dust of the sands, as they will not let up til you are outside of these lands."

For some reason, when reading that, I hear Pharah from Overwatch. >.>

Alayi here! Ready and willing to begin! Looking at the others posts, I might take over the trap finding job. With a level of rogue maybe.

Yay! Thank you for the invite.

I am so excited! Good luck everyone!

Honestly, should check out Archive of Nethys. It is a bit more neat with Paizo material. Here's the link here.

And I have to say that there are so many interesting characters too!

Great! That is good to hear. Anyway, here is Alayi's background. I hope it is alright.

Thanks! I tried to find one decent enough, but if I remember correctly, it was the only female ifrit avatar. Though I might look for a better one that I feel fits Alayi better.

But onto a different subject, what are your thoughts about background skills from the Unchained book?

And another, what about the Ranged Tactic's Toolbox splatbook? I have a single item from that book called a Kunai, to help Alayi have access to Bludgeon and Piercing in addition to Slashing with her Scimitar. Is it alright for her to have it?

Edit: Here's her stat block, it currently has the background skills added for an extra two skill points basically. So I hope it is alright.

Hi there. This is my character Alayi, a chaotic neutral ifrit swashbuckler. She will have the trait of being a slave that is hopes to earn her freedom.

Will update her profile with the correct stat block when I get onto my computer. But her backstory is mostly there.

Hello. I am interested in playing Mummy's Mask too, since my first pbp I was in was MM. But it ended soon after it began. So I hope I can enjoy the story.

This is the character that I plan on bringing in to the campaign, an Ifrit Swashbuckler. She is built and ready to go. All of her info is in her profile.

Favors above post. Would do more, but can only do it once

I agree with DM AZ above. Anyway, welcome to GMing and Playing in Pathfinder. May you enjoy your stay Lanayru.

Here's Alayi the Ifrit Swashbuckler again. Looking for either Mummy's Mask or Legacy of Fire. She's built using 20pb and using average gold of her class. She is ready and willing to go exploring into a desert. Which ever one that may be.

Well, Alayi can be chaotic good. It is just she doesn't see much reason to change things for the better if it is already working. I guess she can be willing to earn gold to help fund purchase of slaves to free them or something.

Alright, I'll just nudge Alayi to Chaotic Good, with more neutral tendencies.

Right. Just updated her without the background skills. She is going to get the feat Dervish Dance at third level, and having the extra skill points helps when she only receives at max, 5 per level.

Here's Alayi Ah'Mheed. She is a Ifrit Swashbuckler. I am currently updating her stats. I am looking to her being chaotic neutral former slave. Not much is different in her current build, but will see about updating it for your pbp.

I do have a couple questions about the beginning gold amount. Is it by average by class, or by a set amount? And what about background skills? What is your opinion of them, and are they allowed?

Below is just a quick write up of Alayi's background and motivation.

Background: As I said she's a former slave of Katheer. Bought by her late master to be taught to become an assistant to him. When he died, he had no family, he left the business to Alayi. She sold it to fund her freedom and to travel around, and learn how to take care of herself.

After a while, Alayi finds herself in Osirion and hears about the opening of the Necropolis in Wati. She decides to go there to see about joining a group to earn some gold so she doesn't fall into debt and possibly becoming a slave again.

Personality: Alayi is happy go lucky girl who has a decent head on her shoulders. She doesn't want conflict, but will defend herself if needed. Wants to have fun, but knows she needs a means to support it. And her opinion of slavery, is that it is better to be a slave then be a begger living in poverty. She has bought a slave before and freed her and gave the person some gold to get by on.

Alignment: She is chaotic neutral, but leaning towards good. She doesn't care for laws, but will not go out of her way to break them. She also won't stop to help someone who attacked her, or her allies, even if that person is bleeding out. If she notices someone that needs help, that isn't a threat, she might just decide to help them.

Deity: She does not have one at this time. She feels that people should decide what they want to do. If they want to follow a god, so be it. As long as they don't try to cram their belief down her throat, or try to sacrifice her, or harm her.

Edit: I just finished updating her stats on her profile. I hope everything is to your liking. Aside the chaotic neutral of course. I can change her alignment to chaotic good if that helps, but I believe her personality still puts her in the former.

I'm up for playing in a Mummy's Mask or something like that for my character, Alayi Ah'Mheed. If you are still looking for players though.

Good luck to everyone!
