Bahram the rogue's page

Oh well. Back to retirement I go.

updated my alias

I already submitted but I didn't roll so I guess I will give it a try.

2d6 + 6 ⇒ (2, 6) + 6 = 14
2d6 + 6 ⇒ (5, 6) + 6 = 17
2d6 + 6 ⇒ (4, 4) + 6 = 14
2d6 + 6 ⇒ (4, 5) + 6 = 15
2d6 + 6 ⇒ (3, 2) + 6 = 11
2d6 + 6 ⇒ (1, 5) + 6 = 12

well that is good (33 point buy), will have to update my submission then

Sounds like a game for bahram

congrats all

For those that do not have the Legacy of Fire Players Guide PDF, HERE is the link to the d20pfsrd page that contains the traits. As DM Default says above, the Finding Haleen trait should be modified to be +1 hp OR +1 sp along with the FCB. I believe that JJ said as much in the Legacy of Fire sub-forum when the adventure first came out.

-- david (aka Mahk)

ya know that is how I always interpreted that trait. I thought you just got +1 skill and +1 HP or you could choose the special based on your race and class instead.

for Bahram I chose +1 hp and +1 skill only.

I think I got it now, so thanks to everyone, even though I don't think I really fit what the party is looking for. but there is always a chance.

I was in a legacy of fire game with Bahram but he was killed rather early in the game.

Here is a submission, but a little confused on the finding Haleen trait. so you get the trait but not the bonus?

Anyway here are the level 1 stats. I can level up if selected the story is in the alias

bummer, i'm still here anyway

Bahram tries to keep his balance as the rafters fall. looking back as the gnoll makes for the ladder. he nods, understanding the situation all to well.

Bahram makes for the ladder to descend as fast as he can.

climb: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9
climb: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18

Bahram turns to retrieve his mis-thrown dagger. trying not to let the taunting bother him.

then he get the hint about the rafters, glancing below he looks for anyone that may be in danger form the falling rafters.

perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15
perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18

Gnasher, correct

Navigating the treacherous rafters, but still keeping to the edge of somewhat sturdier timbers, Bahram, draws a dagger, and tries to gin a clean throw.

dagger toss: 1d20 + 4 - 2 ⇒ (9) + 4 - 2 = 11
dagger toss bad luck: 1d20 + 4 - 2 ⇒ (1) + 4 - 2 = 3

-2 for range

as he is about to throw, he almost looses his balance and the dagger goes backwards instead and impales the wall behind him.

looking about what? the little bugger tried to sneak up behind me.

that's why I would prefer that we try and keep conversations here on the boards. I had similar problems in another game where the GM would not use spoilers but PM's instead and at times it looked like players were making things up as they went along, forgetting that the information was not shared by all

also realize that gnasher has the same perception as Bahram. also I suffer from wrath of dice goods. the last time I played this the GM had to call the combat over by GM fiat after close to 20-30 rounds of combat thanks to the bad luck aura.

traps: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6
traps again: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10

see, I roll worse even if I take the better roll

ok I went back and re-read the GM description... No ladder mentioned... so at what point was Gnasher informed of the ladder and why didn't he tell the rest of us? I think Bahram will change his action based on the revelation that there was a ladder there.

Also assuming the ladder was spotted by Bahram, and he was closest and he went first then Gnasher will have to follow Bahram up the ladder.

also Bahram would have already determined it was not trapped

Adjusted Bahram based on above He is already up the ladder. if not then you all will wait for me then

ok I think the party placement is off though, I will put Bahram where he probably would be as a scout

perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11 missed the check but probably moot anyway considering the attack

init: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22

Bahram draws his rapier in one hand and a dagger in the otehr. and tries to take cover among the pews (to avoid arrows hitting him)

Bahram, a little out of place as he is a new addition, nods to the gnoll and makes his way as stealthily as possible toward where the laughter was heard.

feeling a slightly better bond of trust with Pinocchio, Pinocchio, wait here, and watch my back, just in case.

stealth: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (4) + 10 = 14
perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22

Bahram sticks with the group after introductions are made, and his presumed success in flattering the lady into speechlessness.

If you need be to scout ahead,, just give the word.

Bahram simply glares at the gnoll, apparently he understood. He says nothing in reply.

looking back to the Lady, It would seem that duty calls.

With that Bahram returns to the group. passing by the gnoll as he does so.

ხომ არ ფიქრობთ, თქვენ გამო თქვენი რწყილი აბანო? he whispers as he passes.

ohhh boy, a spoiled princess and a a slightly over zealous rogue... this will be getting rather interesting....

As Priscilla emerges, Bahram takes a glance (probably a little longer than would be appropriate).

a raised eyebrow followed by a smile of a challenge presented.

Bahram bows as the Lady Priscilla introduces herself. My dear Countess, The pleasures you grace me with are more countless than the stars of heaven. Giving the lady his best roguish smile.

I am Bahram, acquisitioner of rare antiquities

Not wanting to take a chance, I have played this part (well at least this room) before, and I do not want to accidentally meta-game, I would like to allow the others to take the lead

all cool by me I guess.

there's a map? where is the link? should I be on it?

EDIT found it...best put it in the game header for easier locating

huh? Now Bahram looks even more confused.

I never claimed that magic was my weapon. Pinocchio did, as that is what he can do. but not me, perhaps you fail to recognize Pinocchio as a person?

Bahram looks at Zagathoth a little confused. spells? I don't cast spell, I am skilled at moving unseen. years of practice slipping out of young ladies rooms when their husbands would arrive. he responds with a smile.

before moving out...I didn't answer before cause I wasn't really sure how to answer. as Bahram does not have much to offer by way of combat. he can take care of traps, (I guess)

Bahram was not sure how to answer what he can do, He has never been asked that outside of the bedroom, and by a male on top of that. the question kind of threw him off.

Finally he manages an answer, I am a scout, if that helps.

As the group is ready to move out, If you wish I can scout ahead, unless you have already done so.

Bahram is looking to find his place among the crew as they did just meet.

Bahram checks all the members of the group. trying to discern where he would be needed. working in groups was relatively new to him.

initially there was a slight bit of excitement in his eyes as the introductions went around.

but soon the excitement started to fade. is that all? just you three?

Oh I am sorry, I am Bahram, and the little one here is Pinocchio. he says with slight bow.

Bahram wasted no time when he first entered Almah's camp to notice her beauty. And it took even less time for him to attempt his roguish charms on her.

Of course he knew flirting with her was flirting with danger. but when did that ever stop him? Several rejections later, the two were briefed on where they were needed.

Bahram had heard that the ones they were to meet up with were experienced and even more so the rumor was that there were a couple of lovely ladies among them. This is something He just had to see.

His first sight was what he thought to be a gnoll. His first instinct was to draw his blade, but his animated companion had already began his introduction.

He remembered his brief that there was a gnoll among them, still caution seemed a bit called for. so he will not attack on sight. not that he usually does. Bahram has always been suited at avoiding conflict.

Still he approached several paces behind the "doll" hand on his sword, just in case.

do we already know the current group? or are we completely new?

also be ready I am sure Bahram will be flirting with Almah (he considers himself a ladies man)

of course the ladies of the party are not to be ignored either....

well if we are there from the start i have some reading to do. and i may make some comments on past events (won't change the outcome, just to establish any relationships with NPC's or PC's as applicable)

this will prevent accidentally putting the gm on the spot in the future

however arriving now for the first time does give a little of character introductions.

ok all complete...

sorry forgot to check back here...

Bahram is ready except I need the details as to character creation stuff---like level and wealth and stats and such

Any chance here I also got the message from the GM would it be fair to allow someone try and get in

Sorry Choon I only dread the request when I got home from work....

at least my character has an alias and a back story.

Same story as Morrigan here. :)

go for the trifecta then?

Just a note....

Hurricane Joaquin may have an impact in my area this weekend. not sure what will happen, may loose power may be completely fine. we shall see.

Bahram is relieved that everyone is alright. (especially Kat) making sure she can see him, I'm glad you are alright. what do you have there?

Am I still included? I last posted a search for traps but then everything stopped. now I a gone?

init: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14

with the others occupied with these creatures, and Bahram not engaged, (at least not yet), Bahram runs to Anaara's aid first.

attack with Rapier: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25
crit confirm?: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15

damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
crit damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
sneak if possible: 1d6 ⇒ 4

Bahram scopes out the door, good eye there B-man, you want me to check it out?

perception: 1d20 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 4 + 1 = 24 -- +4 more for canny observer

Kat heals Bahram, his eye slowly open and his first sight is Kat (considering she has just healed him). He gives her a smile. knowing she can read his lips, Thanks Kat, I knew you cared.

hello all, working on my level up

Round 1: unconscious

Round 2: unconscious

Round 3: unconscious

This is the part about PbP that actually causes players to drop, I have not checked in much knowing that we can't hit them thanks to the unluck aura and the crappy dice roller.

and I am unable to participate due to "unconscious"

stabilize DC 12: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (20) + 0 = 20

unless the unluck aura effects this as well this is good

Bahram lets loose a short string of Kelish curses as he falls to the floor.

The impact knocks him out cold, a cut on the back of his head bleeds out for a bit, but luckily it wasn't as deep as it looked, and he soon is stable but unconscious still.

EDIT: drat Kat unlucky death DC 12: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (15) + 0 = 15
Yayyy still alive

The unluck critter has moved back, and it is lucky for him that his unluck was in effect making Bahram miss.

With a glance toward where he went, Bahram notices Kat fighting another one.

With an acrobatic flair, Bahram moves toward Mokknokk

attack rapier: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19
unluck rapier: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11

damage just in case: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

With only one critter left to square off against. Bahram gives it a wry little smile. And with an acrobatic attack, he strikes at the creature with both weapons.

attack rapier: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (15) + 1 = 16
unlucky rapier: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 1 = 13

dagger attack: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7
unlucky dagger: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 1 = 21

rapier damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

with two critters giving Bahram a rough time He gives his attention to the first one (#6)

attack rapier: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7
unlucky rapier: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 1 = 20

attack dagger: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 1 = 21
unlucky dagger: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 1 = 13

dagger damage (maybe): 1d4 ⇒ 3

would have been a double crit threat if not for the unluck

ok so Bahram is useless this fight. the ran past him to Belros leaving me unable to reach them and no ranged weapons anymore.

ok it looks like Bahram is up next to the critters. but it says they advanced to Belros. Is this correct?

Bahram made to collapsing rafters look like child's play. well for him, it almost was. he's been escaping a dodging things on city roof tops most of his life.

he barely had the chance to gloat when the pugwampi appeared.

Bahram breathes a sigh of relief, the blasted fight is over and he has nothing to show for it except a few small arrow holes in his shirt.

I forgot who I borrowed the crossbow from

He then hands the crossbow back to its owner, the sights must be off, I think you better get it checked out.

Bahram then goes about finding all of his missing daggers.
before heading toward the nest.

best not get to far in case you want me to scout things out. but I really need to find my knives first.

Bahram sits in hiding, clutching the borrowed crossbow. luck has not been in his favor.

he loads the bolt wondering if he should take the shot.

he still feels the pain from the creatures attacks. he ponders his next action, finally he pops up to take a shot at the creature.

attack: 1d20 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 3 + 1 = 6
attack: 1d20 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 3 + 1 = 14

and the bolt flies off no where near any target past or present.

he ducks back behind the cover, wondering why in the 9 hells he is here again.

Doing his best to keep cover from more pug arrows. Bahram loads another shot and takes it.

attack on 5: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7
again: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

After the shot Bahram simply drops the crossbow.

hell with it, I give up. and he simply takes cover.
