Emilia Cosovei's page

To my respective GMs and/or players, I am posting this in all my games that I'm running or involved in. I was involved in a force on force incident today during work. I cannot go into details for obvious reasons, but suffice to say no one was seriously injured. I'll be very busy with paperwork for the foreseeable afternoon/evening. If I have time later this evening, I will attempt to get caught up with my games. Otherwise, look for me tomorrow!

Boon: 1d20 ⇒ 4

Emilia begins canting and an eldritch blue glow appears on her right index fingertip. She then begins to swirl her finger around, drawing arcane symbols in the air.

Begin casting Summon Monster I.

Emilia gasps as the blade cuts into her arm and backpedals away from the agent. She quickly conjures a field of slippery grease beneath his feet. "Ny'a, I need your aid!" She then draws out a vial of alchemists fire and prepares to throw it!

Casting Grease beneath Green (as indicated by the green box) and he must immediately attempt a Reflex save DC 16 to avoid falling.

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19 To go with my earlier post.

Emilia watches the Kortos agents warily. "Our issue is not with you. We are here to have a visit with your Aspis fellows. They have committed some rather repugnant crimes while under the protection of your Consortium. I wonder how the leaders of this port would react when they discovered that the Kortos fellows were offering protection to a group that was using their citizens as test subjects for an awful drug? Or that you all were allowing them to utilize this very warehouse for their vile ventures?"

Emilia will share everything she found with the group, feel free to read the spoiler. Anyone have Handle Animal??? I think everyone should take a Tanglefoot Bag and some alchemist fire. I think Emilia will probably focus on tossing around some of those items if it comes to a fight. Also, she will attempt to use the Carpentry tools to attempt to nail shut both the doors in area 4.

Craft (Carpentry): 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 4 + 2 = 14
Craft (Carpentry): 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 4 + 2 = 15

Not sure that those are successes, I'll wait to see before I attempt any more.

Just to let all the other players know, I'm trying to not make too many decisions in this encounter. I have GM'd it before and know most of the mechanics involved. So I would prefer to let you guys handle most of the plan making... however, if this gets too slow, then I may have to do so.

Since my strength is minimal, I'll focus on searching while the others secure the building.

"Understood, Magali. We will do our best to refrain from fighting with the Kortos agents if possible."

"I'll leave the manual labor to those of you better suited to such things. Also, we should try to find a way to lock those secret doors as well." Starting in area 2.

Perception Area 1: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21
Perception Area 3: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13
Perception Area 4: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23
Perception Area 5: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15
Perception Area 6: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15

Emilia approaches the woman. "Ah, the elusive Ms Delroya. It is a pleasure to finally meet. I am Emilia Cosovei." She offers a handshake to Magali, but quickly follows behind the other woman into the warehouse. "How should we handle the agents from the different Consortiums? Should we attempt to simply drive off the Kortos agent in the event we are attacked? What would you say is the likelihood the Kortos agents will be violent? Also, will be remaining to assist us?"

Emilia will spend some time searching the boxes in hope to find something useful to aid the group!

perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (11) + 6 = 17

"A violent fool, just as I had expected..." Emilia says, sounding disappointed. She mages around Zordlon and conjures up a sizzling dart of acid that she sends streaming through tunnels toward the alchemist!

Ranged Touch Attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 2 = 14
Acid Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Actions: Move - Move forward 10' feet. Standard - Acid Dart on alchemist.

Emilia has no particular care to which temple the addits are taken. "I agree with Phil. Let us return to the sewers and handle this man ourselves. With the Kortos Consortium allowing Aspis agents to do this sort of work here makes me wary of allowing the locals to handle this."

"Do not forget, we need to supply this sample to our contact. It is part of our evidence. We should also try to get these people to a temple of Sarenrae perhaps. Those folks are always looking to redeem everyone. We can use these folks as witnesses about what occurred here. If none of you will help, then I'll do it myself." She looks around and calls to the addicts. "I know where you can find more of this." She points at the vial. "But you must follow me there, we cannot risk bringing it into the open."

Emilia stands and wrinkles her nose from the foul breath of the addicts. "Yes, I believe that is the case as well, Phil. The question is, what do we do in the meantime?" She stares at the poor souls for a moment, condemning them to the consequences of their choices; however, just as she is about to turn away she has a thought. Clearly these people were not in their right state of mind, very few sentient (or at least civilized) beings would not allow themselves to be in such a state. She wonders how these people turned to this alchemist and this awful intoxicant... and whether they are beyond help.

She looks at her companions. "Normally I would say to leave these people to the consequences of their actions, but this seems different. We should try to find somewhere that can help them... if they aren't already beyond help. Who will help me?"

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (16) + 6 = 22

"Let us quickly search for any notes and signs of the drug. We will return at dusk to deal with this... alchemist." Emilia begins searching around the alchemist lab and near the rotting furniture for any potential signs of the drug. If that fails, she will then begin to turn out the pockets of the addicts. If anyone questions her actions... "Addiction is an awful disease. Even if we get these people help, should they find another dosage of the drug there is a very good chance they will fall back into this..."

Emilia gags slightly and quickly pulls her scarf over her mouth and nose. "Gods, what an awful stench." She then approaches one of the addicts and looks down at them. "Where is the alchemist?"

I think part of the confusion was Scipio's rapid-fire posts in a skill challenge that requires every party member to make some sort of skill roll. Also, perhaps Lukian's not understanding that this specific challenge requires some sort of skill check from every party member.

As for the next mission, Emilia would prefer to confront this drug dealer and handle the disgusting man as opposed to attempting to infiltrate a ship.

...okay then... Good luck to you, Scipio... So that leaves us with 4 PCs still, right?

*EDIT*

Also, I wanted to apologize for my delay in posting. I had an intern riding patrol with me yesterday so I was not able to get into here to make a post. I had to testify at traffic court this morning for a bench trial and then go right into work tonight. We've been quite busy and I just got a little lull in the action to get a post in!

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 23

Emilia jumps in to assist the paladin. "Indeed, goodsirs, my companions speaks the truth. It would seem that you are quite aware of this place and maybe you even frequent it. Should you decide to allow us the opportunity of dealing with this gentlemen without involving yourselves we can gladly finish this without any violence."

Sure thing, Xynen! I'll shoot you a PM real quick and give you an example of how I did this one.

I have played and GM'd it before, which is sort of why I was trying to figure out exactly what our plan was before diving into things.

Agreed, I'm just trying to figure out which action is being done by whom... I'll just tossing a diplomacy roll out there and try to make it fit into whatever exactly is going on right now.

Emilia joins the others in confronting the bartender. "Goodsir, I would highly suggest your fullest cooperation. Otherwise, it is likely that your tavern will be seized until the investigation has been completed, which could take several months. You will likely be arrested and imprisoned until the conclusion. Can you afford to be without an income for that length of time?" She shrugs slightly. "I think probably not. If you're selling fake pearls, it is likely you owe money to less reputable individuals that will not be happy if they do not receive their payments. I would hate to hear about this lovely establishment burning to the ground."

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18

Okay... so what exactly is our plan here folks? It's a little too scatterbrained for me to make sense of exactly what is happening? Are we assisting Ny'a in convincing the bartender to close up shop? To give up who the agents are?

Emilia considers the situation and her skillset. "I can remain in the bar and keep an eye out or for interlopers or even join the rogue in his stealth mission. Or I can attempt to convince the authorities to assist Ny'a."

No problem, Xynen. Just FYI, I would be off grid this weekend as my wife and I are taking a little weekend getaway to the college town where we met. Feel free to bot me as necessary!

Done!

PM sent! Thanks for running g the game, it was a good time.

"Perhaps we should take this time to mention that a certain name has also come up being implicated in these documents. One of which you may want to take personal notice." She lifts an eyebrow, keeping the implication obvious without speaking aloud.

Holy cow that was a lot to catch up on! No worries GM, it happens to us all. Just wanted to remind you.

Emilia sits quietly, sipping on her drink and allows the other more diplomatic members of the group approach the situation. Although she is unimpressed with this man also being involved. 'Such a hypocritical country...'

You also forgot the Ref saves for both the baddies against Emilia's grease to see if the can even attack this round.

Emilia sighs. "So be it... the uncivilized path..." She movesnto a better spot to see the two hired thugs and conjures a field of slippery grease beneath their feet!

Casting Grease to cover the squares the thugs are in and the two squares behind them. Reflex save DC 16.

Emilia lets out an exasperated sigh at Korina's sudden change. "Madam, you are outnumbered and outmatched. Despite what my bloodthirsty companion seems to indicate..." She levels her best scolding teach look at Jarlaxle. "Your death is not guaranteed. I believe that might be up to Miss Thalia here. I imagine that she would be willing to overlook this entire incident should we be allowed to leave unmolested to seek out Sander. However, if you force our hand and then somewhere survive to escape, then I can imagine she will utilize her new position to seek your capture and/or death."

Emilia pauses. "So we do not necessarily need the backing of your father then, but rather this Sander Bryton?" This piques Emilia's interest. "I do not trust anyone, especially a corrupt politician, but I can handle him better than a horde of demons. That said, perhaps we should go speak with this Sander and convince him instead. Then we have no need of your father and his ilk."

Emilia gives Thalia a patient look. "No, I would rather not leave such a man in power, but this is a situation that comes down to the greater good. I am sorry that your father is such a horrible person, but the Worldwound must be contained. The Eagle Knights could greatly aid this venture and I am in favor of that. It is nothing against you, dear, but I would sacrifice any one person to save the world." She looks at her companions. "We are Pathfinders first and we have a mission to garner the aid of the Eagle Knights, not to fulfill our own self-serving agendas, let us not forget that. It would not be the first time, nor the last time that the Society has had to ally temporarily with someone like this. I say we secure the aid we need. Then we can deal with this foul man and his allies."

She notices Roran's movement. "Roran, do not be a fool. Stop this rash behavior and listen to this discussion."

Emilia listens to the suggestions presented and ponders the options for sometime before speaking. "I would hear more about this corruption of which you speak, Miss Thalia before I make my choice. For now, I feel that the Worldwound and the demons contained therein present a much more disastrous opponent than some corrupt politician. He can be dealt with after we have driven the demons back. I feel I have a deeper understanding of the extraplanar than the rest of you. A horde of demons can kill more people in a single day than this man could do in his entire lifetime. I can more for all of Golarion than I do Andoran. That said, I hold my decision until Thalia can explain more."

Emilia wants quietly near the back of the group, keeping an eye on Thalia and looking for the young man...

Seeing her wasteful first attempt fail, Emilia sends forth a smaller glob of acid towards the injured canine, hoping to end its suffering quickly. However, she completely misses the beast this time!

Touch AC: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

Acid Splash and miss...

Acid Dart vs Touch AC: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 2 = 11

Emilia moves forward to get a better line of sight and conjures a dart-shaped blob of acid that she sends streaking towards one of the feral canines!

Emilia considers trying her acidic powers upon the lock, but then realizes the acid likely is not strong enough to melt away the iron. With an unsatisfied frown she follows the others. Initially she is quiet, but after a few moments of silence she suddenly speaks up. "Khellek, while I can appreciate your chivalrous concerns, not all young women are damsels in need of protection. Perhaps Lady Thalia is made of sterner body and mind than what we know. I agree that she deserves the right to this through to the end."

Emilia waits eagerly to see what's behind the door!

Sense Motive: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 1 = 17

'Something is amiss here... but what?'

Emilia watches Khellek in action and takes mental notes in how he handles the situation. 'Like watching an artist make his masterpiece.'

Just as Em prepares to fire off a bolt of acid, the battle abruptly ends! She looks around to make sure there are no more enemies about before checking on her familiar. "Is there anyone else around or inside the building?" She asks of the men.

Hey all, had a rough day at work today and don't really have spirit for a post today. Business as usual tomorrow.

Em will take a position closer to the rear of the group. She is not much for fighting, making sure Cinderfoot keeps close to her.

A young, Varisian woman sits nearby, sipping a glass of wine and reading through a Pathfinder Chronicle. She seems more intent on her reading than she does the gambling, or the seemingly touched half-orc. At her feet an intelligent looking cream colored cat with black coloration around all four paws, tail, and muzzle lazily bats at a dangling bootlace. 'These ones will need some serious help with their lore if they are Pathfinders I am to accompany.'

Player Name: Matt B.
Character Name: Emilia Cosovei
PFS #: 13693-18
Faction: Grand Lodge
Day Job: N/A

She's so Core, that she is composed mostly of an iron-nickel alloy... Currently Em is involved in another game of The Stolen Heir, but that game should hopefully be completed before our kick off date!

Em is a conjuration specialist with a focus on summoning, but I have a few utility spell to help out (Grease and Protection from Evil).

Em listens intently to the back and forth conversation, hoping to pick up something of value to be used in their mission. While keenly interested, the bards seem to be better as this sort of situation than her.

I am looking for a few 1st level Core Campaign PC's to play through the Consortium Compact on August 25th for the first Session of Gameday VI!

Feel free to sign up here!

Because this bares repeating, this Scenario is for CORE PC's.

I'd like to sign up with this PC, but your sheet is currently restricted.

Sense Motive: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
Sense Motive: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (14) + 1 = 15

Em was never very good at reading people and their emotions... she listened to the continued rebukes in silent frustration.

I've likewise been having some issues with the Paizo website. It works perfectly fine with my work Verizon Jetpack, but my home service is intermittent. It was working fine last night and then this morning it was not working again. So, if I'm silent for a while it is likely that my home service won't allow me to access the website again.

Also, I think I finally found the avatar I want to use.
