Greetings,

I am going to start to DM the Giantslayer Adventure Path to a group of friends. Most of them have a lot of experience with tabletop RPGs and Pathfinder in general. However, one of the player never played a lot of RPGs but always wanted to. He asked me which kind of character he could make, and I simply answered "the character you want to".

Anyhow, he wants to make an Archaeologist Bard. He does not want to use bardic performance or a lot of spells, or even, by his words, be "heroic" in combat. He wants to make something very close to Bilbo Baggins, and that's fine by me. It is different to what most of my players do and I'm very curious to what kind of situations that kind of character can create.

What I'm preoccupied with is the combats. The rest of the players can deal with this pretty fine (we have a summoner, a sorcerer and a fighter), however I'm worried that the combats won't be fun for the Archaeologist player, and since this Adventure Path contains a lot of it I would like to create something or add something to make that player do something fun and engaging while the rest of the party hacks aways at orcs and giants. I thought about putting contraptions or objects to most of the battles but after a while, depending of the scenery, this won't really make sense.

Do you already had this kind of situation? How you deal or would deal with this?

Thanks


Hello,

One of my players wanted to use the spell Wall of Stone, to encase its enemies on a "cage". However I'm not really sure on how high the stones should be, the spell says:

"This spell creates a wall of rock that merges into adjoining rock surfaces. A wall of stone is 1 inch thick per four caster levels and composed of up to one 5-foot square per level. You can double the wall's area by halving its thickness. The wall cannot be conjured so that it occupies the same space as a creature or another object."

Should I consider 5-foot cubes? So that if she wants to build a column 10ft high, with an area of 5ft she would "spend" 2 cubes? Or I can assume that 1 square of the wall goes to the ceiling?

Thanks.


Thanks threelite, they are great


Greetings to all.

I've already asked something similar a while ago, and I'm very grateful on how nice this board is, that said I have another request.

Does anyone has Handouts 2-5, 2-6 and 2-7, without the letters but with the drawings? (blood splatter, sihedron rune and Magnimar Crest) So I can add translated text to it.

Thanks in advance

With that said, does anyone here have Tsuto's journal whitout the letters, but with the drawings? So I could add the translated text on it?

Thanks in advance

I did this hastily, hope it works okay for you. It has quite a few blemishes but I figure after you add the translated text, it should cover them up.

That's great!

Thank you very much
