Caleb Gance's page

No worries Farg slow weekends happen on PBP's. I'm sure we'll be moving soon though. We gathered some infos.

"Agreed" Caleb says, hearing the priest's excellent suggestion.

Did we break it? :o

Know Nobility, yadda yadda: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (13) + 8 = 21
Know Local, yadda yadda: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 24

Perception still taking 20, 18 total

Correct you are, I only saw 'several minutes' and figured 40 minutes to an hour chatting instead of 2.

Caleb orders dinner and finds suitable seating for the party.

How many people can fit in these rooms? I need to know for tracking party fund.

While dinner is cooking, Caleb excuses himself from the table with a promise to return. You see him begin to socialize with the inn's patrons as well as it's staff.

take 20 Knowledge Local for Gather Info: 20 + 8 = 28

take 20 Knowledge Nobility, any notable local Bluebloods who might be 'in the know'?: 20 + 8 = 28

take 20 Perception of the establishment.: 20 - 2 = 18

Shortly there after, Caleb returns with a fresh drink and, hopefully, a few stories to tell.

"A drink does sound divine my friends." the exotic nobleman says in his tilted common accent. He slips up to the tiefling and whispers something to him, half-grinning as he does so.

Claebs eyes lock on the feather, he chews the corner of his lip as if internally debating...something.

take 20 Appraise on Feather token

Appraise: 20 + 2 = 22

So we have a magical Anchor Feather token. Should we hold onto it for now or see if we can pawn it once we've settled in? For consumables. Lesser Restoration and Cure Potions. I'm kind of a planner so if I go overboard let me know. Well prepared Pathfinders are living Pathfinders :)

"Many thanks Captain Walren, we will check into the establishment." Caleb says with a nod. He holds the feather in hand trying to figure out what the meaning could be. Smirking, the bravo sticks it in his hat and set out to track down Lilt the bard. Perhaps the spellsinger could tell it's purpose.

Any way to detect magic/identify on the feather Sir Bard? If it's nothing special I'll keep it as a trophy and wear it in my hat. :)

Anyone want to track looted coin etc or shall I?

I'm chaotic neutral enough to see to the clean end to any of the privateers if you'd like. No questions asked.

"Aye, search it, burn it. If it is indeed worthless. If we find more pirates hiding below decks what would you like done with them? We can put them to the sword or haul to town for the noose? It's what they offer for piracy here in these parts if I remember correctly." the lithe bravo says cooly as he inspects the vessel thoroughly.

taking 20 to Perception since we're out of combat. I'll use it to Aid Another if anyone else searches better than me hehe :)

Perception Search: 20 - 2 = 18

I know they'd disappear after the module because of PFS rules but I'm going to go on a very in-character hunch right now. Going to try and appraise it's value and see if tow or driving it to port after the battle would be worth enough coin to purchase a few consumables, healing potions etc. for us to fall back on during our investigation while we're here in town. Maybe some Lesser Restoration love since we're seeing ghouls alredy. Here goes..

If im not in combat any more I'll take a 10, giving me a 12 Appraise, otherwise here be thy roll mighty gm! :)

Appraise enemy vessel: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9

A lull in the chaos draws Caleb's sharp capitalist mind to a question of another sort...the privateer's vessel became theirs should the privateers lose.

Whats this ol' girl worth Gance, how well do you know your sea-farring craft?

Caleb begins to hum along with the bard's tune, his baritone like old oak soaked in dark honeyed wine. As he does, he weaves his head snake-like, lining up a mortal blow for the last privateer should his companion's blades fail to strike true.

Seeing Lady Luck is on his side today, Caleb scoots a few feet to flank his foe. He drives the point of his rapier towards his enemy's chest and attacks with great force.

Power Attack, Flanking: 1d20 + 9 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 9 + 2 = 25 -2 if no Flank
Damage.: 1d6 + 5 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 5 + 3 = 11

On my next action, if it's possible: Slide 5 feet to flank with Darius and then attack. If not I move towards the nearest foe and remove any flanking bonus if needed and then attack. Wedding weekend.

I may be out of town til sunday, I'll post Caleb's next action since I may be MIA

No worries GM! Welcome back. Noted HP change!
Caleb snarls, casting his eyes towards his next target and listening to the carnage going on all around.

"Give 'em hell mates! Give 'em all hell!"

AoO Power Attack: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18
Damage: 1d6 + 5 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 5 + 3 = 11

Taking a risky gamble, Caleb leaps forward and to the right to dodge the blow.

AC25 vs that attack makes it miss, down to 23 again vs the two Attacks of Opportunity I provoke from 3 and 1 (if three can, not sure of the size dif. in the vessels, etc. DM's call :)

"Excellent idea Bard, get their attention, I'm going over as soon as I'm within leaping distance. I was born for this, and I know their ilk well enough." he spits as he says the word, wrapping the long-mast's rope around his arm, preparing for his launch.

"I used to be one." Caleb says with fierce determination - launching himself to the privateer's vessel, howling like a madman!

My plan stands, no changes except I'm Shield of Faith'd for my boarding action thanks to our kind priest. Sorry Lilt, it's very in character for Caleb. Backstory and professional reasons. You're not unwise for trying to Personality them. Caleb Gance is just Caleb Gance my friend! :)

"My thanks, kind priest! If the Lady of the Gaves wills it, I'll see you on the other side!" the bravo says with a half-cocked smile as he prepares to launch himself through the air.

Caleb has his dueling cloak draped over his arm and rapier drawn.

the following is contingent on 3 things; 1: If there's a rope nearby hanging from the masts of our vessel that I can grab, I do so. 2: If I'm close enough to swing from here to the privateer vessel with one move action, I do so. 3:If I can land next to one of the pirates with my Acrobatics Check (to swing from ship to ship) I do so, and attack one of the bastards! Ehm, time to be a swashbuckler! If what I see in my head isn't workable GM, I'd rather ready a standard action to attack as they try and board. ty! :)

Caleb looks at his companions and flashes a grin twice as sharp as his blade! Grabbing a nearby rope, he leaps into action - swinging from this vessel to the next. As he lands, he tries to bury his rapier to the hilt through the heart of his foe.

Acrobatics, Derring-Do Deed to add D6: 1d20 + 11 + 1d6 ⇒ (13) + 11 + (2) = 26
Power Attack, Rapier: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18
Damage: 1d6 + 5 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 5 + 3 = 14

Hoping to catch one of the privateer's flat-footed since I acted first, did hopefully my act of Stu...er Courage catches 'em off gaurd ;)

Perceptions: 1d20 - 2 ⇒ (10) - 2 = 8

Caleb grasps a silver charm around his neck and says a prayer to the Lady of the Graves to ward his new companions from this plague of undeath. He shudders at the thought then takes another gulp of strongwine before going to fetch Master Kiyoshi - the holy man seems most suited for the task at hand.

Same as Lilt, wasn't personal. Caleb can be a jackass sometimes.

Maybe if there's enough room Caleb and Farg can go shoulder to shoulder and both be up front. I have a few tricks up my sleeve but need room to dance around for a couple of them.

"Did that man say plague?" hearing a very troubling word, Caleb backs a few feet away from the stricken. From over there, he calls "I am sorry my good fellows, I mean no slight, but I'm going to have to echo our good captain; I am no healer." he says with a slight tone of apology.

I do ok up front, when I'm up front I always keep my CloakCape "turned on", I'd be a fool otherwise. However, I'd prefer 2nd for RP reasons ;) Always look out for number one is high on Caleb's 'to do' list these days!

"Observe, report, cooperate!" Caleb chuckles offhandedly at nothing in particular, ready to skewer the next threat.

Sadly my Imp Crit feature doesn't kick in til 5th level.

Caleb's sharp eyes scan the ghouls for any weakness. trying to figure out if they're immune to Precision Damage.

Knowledge Religion, Max 10: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

Caleb knows his shoes are tied? Lol

Caleb spins on his heels to deliver a powerful lunge with his rapier to the ghoul harassing the archeologist. "Don't you know it's bad form to attack an academic. Ghouls have no class!" Derlin mocks a sigh before plunging his instrument of death into rotting flesh!

Power Attack: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (15) + 9 = 24
Damage, Spending 1 Panache to double Precision bonus: 1d6 + 5 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 5 + 6 = 13

My Precision damage is 3

"Excellent work Bard, quite excellent!" Caleb exclaims, seeing the effect Lilt's strumming.

^"Excellent blow, just smashing!"

eta internet went down before I could edit, bad timing.

Caleb's face tightens, realizing the threat that a battle at sea can be.
He quickly unfurls a cape from his left forearm, letting it drape in front of him like a small shield.

Rapier in his right, he steadily makes his way towards the attackers. Once beside Farg he stops, content with his positioning. Smirking, the bravo looks at the tiefling, [b]"Excellent blow, justsmashing/b]" the exotic noble quips, still half grinning.

Move action for the wrapped cape, Standard to move in beside Farg.

Indeed, it's so vague. I have spare paid for cloaks(on sheet, weight accounted for), til they FAQ it is it ok to assume I travel with one of them coiled around or wrapped around my left fore-arm? Still a move action to unfurl it into Buckler mode?
No sense risking the good cape since the feat allows for me to grab a curtain/sheet/etc instead of a worn cloak? Glad to be here! :D

Also if others are MIA like me shoot them a PM. Maybe they have the broken link like I did. Here is where my link to this game was taking me;

earlier intro

Greetings everyone at the docks Caleb bows, cape billowing in the sea-side breeze. "I'm Caleb Gance, a pleasure we share together, this meeting!" the young, well dressed bravo says by way of introduction.

Now...it doesn't appear I'm up yet so just speaking

"Whats going on, are we under attack? Caleb yells.

Its pending FAQ for the Cape issue. For now I'll leave the ball in your court to decide. My profile and statline reflect a flat +1 ac instead of assuming a +2 :) It was just something I was curious on.

Will update and post within the hour. So sorry for the delay guys Ibookmarked the wrong link I think. Don't replace meh :D

Also, I'm a capefighter! Hehe ;)

I wanted to clarify this also because I'm unsure.

Feat: Dueling Cape

As a move action, you can wrap a cape that
you're wearing around your arm (removing it if necessary),
and treat it as a buckler. If you are using the cape in this
way, and an opponent misses you with a melee attack, as an
immediate action you can spend i panache point to release
your cape from your arm and entangle your foe in it.
The foe can free it by using a full-round action to escape
or by destroying the cape; a typical cape has hardness 1
and 3 hit points. You can use this feat with items similar
in shape and weight to a cape, such as a cloak or a curtain.

While using this with a +1`Cloak of Resistance make that a +1 buckler?

I rarely entangle when I'm using it out of fear of some mook running off with my cape but I've used other things like the curtains etc, pretty hilarious

Hello Hello. Looking forward to the game!

Charmed Life:

Charmed Life (Ex): At 2nd level, the swashbuckler
gains a knack for getting out of trouble. Three times per
day as an immediate action before attempting a saving
throw, she can add her Charisma modifier to the result
of the save. She must choose to do this before the roll
is made.

Hard to play exactly RAW in PBP since most saves are rolled by the GM. Caleb tends to reserve this ability for Will Saves so if you'd like, for ease of play, assume I apply this ability to the first three Will Save I have to make per day if that works for you?

Looking forward to grand adventure and playing with you all! :)

"To dream is to live good sir"the exotic bravo retorts with a smile. "I admire any person who aspires to be more than they are, and faith is good a'cause as any, good Lilt." the nobleman will buy drinks and exchange stories for hours. He seems open in proclaiming his esteem for himself and can come off as a braggart every so often.

"Ah, a song! Yes my good sir they will sing many songs of Caleb Gance. Indeed, they may sing one or two already. I admire your unique coloring my friend. A symbol of your deity, no?"the sharp eyed foreigner quips with a harmless, disarming smile. "Allow me to buy you a drink my friend let us exchange tales from the road."

Because, why not!

Caleb Gance bows deep. His cape suddenly billows out, wrapping itself around his forearm with a dramatic flourish. "You rang?" the slender young bravo beams a smile, corded cat-like musculature easily shows beneath the fine crimson leather armor and his flamboyant clothes do nothing to mask an air of exotic nobility.

eta that should have been 8xp, 1 away from 4. I didn't have my folder in front of me and math'd bad my friend. Gracias for the head's up! Caleb can do a little trapsmithing but needs a spotter to find them - he's a bit near-sited.

Melee/Skill Hybrid with a flair for the dramatic.

"Greetings! I hope my father's messenger found you well - as well as his bag of silver encourangement and letter of recommendation for this assignment? Name's Caleb Gance, and I'd appreciate your consideration. My fencing skills are bar none and I've had Varisian Cloak training. Father spared no expense turning me into the trophy you see today."

Caleb bows low, a flourish.

REALLY Interested, thanks for consideration full backstory in profile

My Warpriestess of Calistria who is Crusader's Flurrying a Monowhip (mm slashing grace) and Ferver Buffing could lead a pretty solid inquisition lol. YMMV w/ regaurds to tech level though. Warpriest ftw

Choices choices, Slayer would have been fun(finally picked up my ACG)! Cleric or Bar mayhaps, ora blend of 'em...(runs off)
