<p>You don't know any captain Gerard, though the guy seems quite confident in his words. On the other hand, he was just too sloppy, so it's hard to believe he actually belongs to any law enforcement or the military.</p>

<p>Eben shyly hesitates but accepts to accompany you. There is not much to see in that frontier town beside the festival you were in. But there was an interesting new machine that catches Maureen attention. It is like a small cart. The owner says that the small machine creates in its interior a small connection to the colder regions of the elemental plane of air and sweet essences from Elysium. The end result is some kind of cream made of flavored ice. Maureen loves it and forecasts that this invention will be a complete success capital.</p>
<p>Anyways, you were followed around all the time. </p>
<p>Nightfall approaches, and you are all getting tired (Except Temero I think). You can go on the train to sleep and find more comfortable and ample bedrooms within the town. Maureen would prefer to spend some money and get a more comfortable place to sleep, of course.</p>

<p>Maureen looks disapprovingly at William, but she is pleased by Sylas performance.</p>
<p><b>Prize:</b> 20 bullets. You can choose between flaming, shock, corrosive first, seeking, and limning. These bullets do not give the +1 to attack and damage. <span class=messageboard-ooc>That is a house rule for ammunition in case you are interested. You can enchant ammo without the first +1.</span></p>
<p>The foreign soldier's turn is next.</p>
<p><b>"faith makes a great equalizer" eh? those are the kind of words that my father likes to say.</b></p>
<p>He then tries his luck</p>
<p><span class="messageboard-dice"><b>shot1:</b></span> <span class="messageboard-dice">1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23</span>

<p>He performs slightly better than Sylans, provoking some cheering from the female public and some disapproving groans from the local soldiers. Still, the 3rd target proves to be too difficult. (At the cheering, Mezel can tell that the soldier doesn't seem to be used to that much female approval, as he blushes quite a bit)</p>
<p>Maureen:<b>aaawww, what a shame, he was so close</b> - she says to herself, and then shouts <b>Good shots!</b>. The foreign soldier seems somewhat embarrassed, not sure what to do, but in the end, decides to approach you.</p>
<p>He salutes Maureen first - <b>Good evening M'lady</b> - he then turns to you - <b>Gentlemen, I think you will give a better use to these bullets</b> - He offers to you the prize he just won - <b> after all, you are the ones protecting the train, and while I'm in these land I'm not allowed to carry any weapon</b></p>

<p>It is a nice evening with a pleasant climate. Most of the passengers take the opportunity to leave the train in search of amusement, as it happens that there is a small fair in town.</p>
<p>The streets are full of military personnel, some in their duty as watchmen, some enjoying their off-duty time.</p>
<p>Maureen is happy to take some fresh air after the incident with the bats and decides to wander around the fair. Se eats some desserts, watches some jesters do their show, and plays some games.</p>
<p>She is then suddenly interested in watching a shooting competition, and you soon realize the reason. The foreign soldier is going to participate, and she is going to have the opportunity to cheer him from a distance.</p>
<p>In case you are interested</p>
<p>Shooting game: There is a 20 gp fee to participate. You have three shots, AC 12, 16, and 20, in that order. If you hit 2 targets you win some magical ammo. If you hit all the targets you get some <i>strong</i> magical ammo. All the shots are to be made with a simple non magical, non masterwork gun.</p>

<p>That last bullet from William blows the bat's brains out. You then have no problem clearing the VIP wagon. Some passengers have some scratches here and there, but nothing serious. </p>
<p>More bats clash themselves against the window (and die), but it doesn't seem to be any risk of intrusion as the reinforced glass resists well those hits. </p>
<p>At this point, you can secure yourselves and the vips by locking the doors of the VIP wagon, or you can try to go to the other wagons to see if anybody needs help.</p>

<p>That's one hit from William.</p>
<p>With the window closed the only real danger is the man-sized bat. Lieutenant Evans nods to you in agreement with your tactical choices, she then proceeds to utter commands to move them out of danger and to how to better deal with the normal-sized bats. <span class=messageboard-ooc>That's inspire courage to all of you. +1 to the rolls</span>. </p>
<p>So, Temero, Willian, and Sylas preferred to maintain the distance with the Bat, the only one in melee range is Mezel.</p>
<p><span class="messageboard-dice"><b>Bite vs Mezel:</b></span> <span class="messageboard-dice">1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17</span><span class="messageboard-dice">1d8 + 1d6 + 6 ⇒ (8) + (3) + 6 = 17</span> - That's a hit.</p>
<p>While the bat is biting his mechanical arm, Mezel can clearly see in the eyes of the bat that you are dealing with an unnatural and evil creature.</p>
<p>Maureen screams and hides behind her seat, though for now there is nothing that threatens her.</p>
That's one hit from William.

<p><span class=messageboard-ooc>I'll suppose that Temero agrees with the rest of the party.</span></p>
<p>A couple of hours pass and the flying creature can still be seen from time to time in the distance following the train path. </p>
<p>Other than that, everything is normal for a couple of hours. Mezel can complete the modification to his suit without interruptions and Sylas can entertain Miss Maureen. In the VIP wagon, the posh people talk about politics and other gossips. In the regular wagons, most people are minding their own business in silence, or chatting a little with nearby passengers.</p>
<p>The next following happens when the train leaves the open country and enters a sparse little forest.</p>
<p>The calmness is interrupted by unpleasant shrieks, immediately accompanied by the sound of flapping wings. A black cloud of hundreds of wings and fangs lashes on the train. </p>
<p>In the VIP wagon, people had time to close most of the open windows and other entrances, and you can see how dozens of enraged bats crash themselves against the reinforced glass of the windows, dying from the collision. One window is the exception, as an evil-looking big bat (medium-sized in game terms) can force its way inside the wagon before the window was closed.</p>
<p>Besides the natural confusion and natural fear of being attacked, you all are affected by an unnatural angst</p>
<p>[Spoiler omitted]</p>
<p>===============</p>
<p>I don't want to draw the situation so, to summarize</p>
<p>- The VIP wagon is about 60 ft long and around 15 ft wide. There is (more or less) a 5 ft passageway in the middle of the wagon where you can move normally, otherwise you would be moving/jumping on the passenger chairs (difficult terrain)-</p>
<p>- Mezel, William, and Temero are 15 feet away from the bigger bat. And Sylas and Maureen are about 30 ft away.</p>
<p>- Regular-sized bat can bite, but they are no real danger for the passengers, for now at least. But if the window stays open for too much time you could face a bat swarm or other medium-sized bats.</p>
<p>- The big bat is right next to the open window. Closing the window is a move action that provokes. And it has soft cover from the nearby passenger seats.</p>
<p>- Area effects would most likely affect some passengers.</p>
<p>Your turn.</p>
I'll suppose that Temero agrees with the rest of the party.

<p>- You have the option to stop the strain at any moment if you think there is a valid reason for that. Though it is not something to be taken too lightly as the train have its schedule and the passenger want to be on time for the festival of the stone rose.</p>
<p>With the train stopped or in motion, I can think of three paths</p>
<p>- You wait to see if something happens
<br />
- Evans can provide you with a casting of communal mount spell (via scroll). That would give you 6 hours/divided accordingly to go an investigate the flying creatures
<br />
- There is an emergency balloon in case you want a closer look to the flying creatures, but there is only one and if it gets damaged odds are you would not be able to use it in the future.</p>

<p>To clarify the situation, and to somewhat answer Mezel question, the train is currently on open country land and it will remain so for several hours at least. Any ambush in such terrain is unlikely since you could spot it from a mile away.</p>

<p>When you enter the room you can see The Colonel sitting, reading the newspaper. He stands up and salutes you, and then returns to the newspaper.</p>
<p><b>Can you believe this? our last colony in the continent is to be abandoned next month, We are returning the land to those uncivilized savages. The council be dammed for forcing us... </b></p>
<p>The colonel's speech is interrupted by some knocking on the door. A woman in her late twenties or early thirties and with a very formal demeanor enters the room.</p>
<p><b>Perhaps you already know Lieutenant Evans</b>- The colonel says as she salutes you - <b> She will be the commanding officer of your unit for this mission.</b></p>
<p>Evans:<b> As you know, every four or so years the Svirfneblin of Dol Thurim celebrate the festival of the stone rose. This year some members of our high class, including the daughter of the chancellor are going to the festival, and we have been entrusted with her safety.</b></p>
<p>She draws a map that you already know by heart if you have some points in Knowledge local and proceeds to show you the railway line from Draikar to Dol Thurim. </p>
<p>The journey will take two and half days. The actual distance is not that large, but the train has to take a long detour in order to avoid a big lake and some mountains. The actual distance can be traveled in less than a day on an airship but Dol Thurim in an underground city in a mountainous location, it is only connected by the railway. </p>
<p>The colonel: <b>. We have some reports of unusual movements in the darklands and that made uneasy some people in high positions, so the chancellor insisted for tighter security on their behalf...ah, that woman, so easy to bend to other people's demands, if it weren't for her we were not abandoning our colonies overseas...</b></p>
<p>Liutenant Evans •coughs• a little to stop the political ramblings of the colonel</p>
<p><b> Anyways, don't worry, the sons and daughters of politicians are always an annoyance, but it is a routine trip, nothing to worry about, almost a paid vacation for you. Evans will explain your assignments to you </b></p>
<p><span class=messageboard-ooc>In principle, Evans Should tell you what strategy you will use to be a bodyguard, but I better let those details to you to decide.</span></p>
When you enter the room you can see The Colonel sitting, reading the newspaper. He stands up and salutes you, and then returns to the newspaper.
Can you believe this? our last colony in the continent is to be abandoned next month, We are returning the land to those uncivilized savages. The council be dammed for forcing us...
The colonel's speech is interrupted by some knocking on the door. A woman in her late twenties or early thirties and with a very formal demeanor enters the room.

<p>Usually, I don't like crafting feats, but it seems thematic enough for a steampunk campaign. There would be some downtime but not much, so I'd say you can try some crafting.</p>

<p>- 3rd level, 20 PB, two traits, automatic bonus to AC and saves (but not to weapons, armor, or skills), standard WBL.
<br />
- Guns are allowed and encouraged. Guns are simple weapons that target normal AC, everyone starts with a gun (I would like your characters to use guns, though I'd prefer a switch hitter over a full gunslingers because standstill and full attack for an entire campaign sucks).</p>
<p>- I give a minimum of 4+int skill points per level for all non int full casters.</p>
<p>- The ride skill also works with any type of machine you might encounter (motorcycles, jet packs, etc).</p>
<p>- There are no gods. Divine power is fueled by demigods https://pathfinderwiki.com/wiki/Demigod</p>

<p>The tale has the basic morale of "be aware of the dangers of uncontrolled ambitions", but beyond that you can catch the hidden meaning behind the ratfolk words (meaning that scape them since they don't have the context). </p>
<p>In the tale the word "gods" is everywhere, but you notice he is not talking about the actual pantheon, basically every powerful extraplanar (like yourselves) enters in the "gods" category. The ratfolk of old were highly interested in the origin and nature of the "god", the good ones and the evil ones alike. They were warned by a winged emissary of abandoning this path but they persisted.</p>
<p>Things started to ill when they made breakthroughs about the nature of the very birthplace of some of the evil "gods". The evil "gods" birthplace is what they call the "evil itself". They looked too much into the abyss until the abyss• itself started back.</p>
<p>•They use abyss metaphorically, but what a coincidence, it's the correct term.</p>
<p>More details might be found engraved in the old city tunnels, but that place is like a mini-abyss, so they don't go there.</p>
<p>He then hesitantly says <b>Are...are the new events a punishment? We tried to live a peaceful life, did we make something wrong? something unforgivable?</b></p>
