Ennoia Rylintar's page

Hi GM Super Zero and fellow players,

I wanted to present my sincerest apologies, because I will have to bow out of this game (and PbP as a whole) effective immediately, for personal reasons. I am truly sorry for that.

Kind regards,

Lithrac/Ennoia

Ennoia bows curteously once more, though unsure of her understanding of cosmopolitan customs. "We are Pathfinders indeed, here to claim the goods destined to reach the Blakros Museum. Isn't that the Sixwing Drake? I thought the goods we are to take care of were supposed to come off that ship. May we have an explanation, please?"

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (18) + 6 = 24

Ennoia steps in, belated by extensive work back at the Grand Lodge. She bows curteously to Seshuun. "Allow me to apologize for our rude manners. We are indeed Pathfinders, and we are here to help. It is our sincerest wish to establish a long-lasting relationship with you, as well as the museum. Let the past not marr our meeting, if you please. I am Ennoia Rylintar. Well met."

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7 Uh oh, using a Hero Point to reroll this
Diplomacy: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15 Not much better...

"I wish you'd tell us more about this shipment. Ambrus hasn't told us much, truth be told. You know him. So in a hurry to get to business that he forgets to tell us the gist. Who's your contact at the docks? Also, what are these relics?"

One hero point left

I'm back from my camp. Thanks for your patience!

As no one steps forth, Ennoia will try to understand the depths of the matter contained in the Almas letter.

Thanks a lot!

Ennoia glances at the letter she took with a wary look. "Any of you a barrister, perchance? I feel that this legal matter should be addressed by someone well-versed in these obscure and convoluted matters - but that person isn't me." she explains. "This is about a legal claim in the Almas cathedral. Most annoying to Venture-Captain Brackett."

Almas Lore, Pathfinder Society Lore, Religion, or Society. If no one has better than +5 (my Society score), I'll do the secret roll, but maybe Legalistic Lore or something could be helpful?

Posted in Gameplay thread, and I'm very enthusiastic about this game!

However, I just wanted to let you know a few days in advance - I won't be available (ski camp with my students) from March 8th-10th. I will try to check my games, but I don't know how the network will be, nor if I'll have time to post. Sincere apologies in advance, and thank you for your understanding.

"A fellow Pathfinder in need? Now, we can't let that go." a melodious voice fills the room. A lithe figure can now be seen in the doorframe, which you cannot discern well at first because of the sunglare. Three steps as light and graceful as a dancer's and the feminine figure stands before you, yet not with as many colours as the voice might have suggested. The figure comes into view as an ashen-skinned woman, half of her face and body covered with flowing white hair, and dressed in leather armor. Among the profusion of hair on her back, a large elven curved blade engraved with strange signs can be found. The elf - as her ears unmistakenably mark - holds out her hand for you. "I'm Ennoia Rylintar. Well met." she simply says.

Ennoia has finished her quest and is now ready to go, having freshly levelled up to 2!

Smirking at the Orc's bravado half-admiringly, Ennoia adds "All danger has been... resolved, let's say. The complex below proved highly interesting, and will require further examination, especially from dedicated archaeologists - here are some artifacts we gathered." She shows what the Pathfinders found, as well as her notes on the architecture. "This golem, of alchemical nature, was especially interesting. I should know, I got maybe a little too close for my own good."

Ennoia stares the golem down, then strikes, and steps away in a quick dance.
◆ Demoralize, Intimidating Glare: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (11) + 6 = 17
◆ Strike, Elven Curved Blade (elf, finesse, forceful), Sneak Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 181d8 + 4 + 1d6 ⇒ (1) + 4 + (6) = 11 vs Flat-Footed
◆ Step 5ft away

↺ Nimble Dodge (+2 circumstance bonus to AC vs triggering attack if needed)

Downtime: Earn Income (Performance), DC 14: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

I'll pass for the May scenarios, as this will be a busy period for me. Thanks for running these two quests!

Thanks, Studley!

At first, Ennoia feels completely overwhelmed by the sheer brutality and speed with which the construct almost killed her. Her instincts kick in, however, and she rises to her feet, steps nimbly aside, and slashes at the creature mercilessly. "By the Vigilant Seal, you arcane monstrosities are supposed to be destroyed! Begone!"

◆ Stand up
◆ Step into flanking position
◆ Strike, Elven Curved Blade (elf, finesse, forceful): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 191d8 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9
Sneak attack damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2

If she's attacked:
↺ Nimble Dodge (+2 circumstance bonus to AC vs triggering attack if needed)

Looks like a crit. Is precision damage also doubled or just the weapon damage?

Everything is doubled in case of crit (except the deadly extra die if you have one).

That 31 is a critical, regardless of whether I can use my reaction or not. Luckily, I'm not dead from massive damage.

Fort save DC 15: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4 Crit fail, I'm at Enfeebled 2
Recovery check, DC 11: 1d20 ⇒ 13 Pass -> Dying 0. I'm stable and Wounded 1.

Good luck, guys!

My Arcana is only +1 I'm afraid.

Ennoia only glances at the items, knowing she's much better at keeping an eye out for danger. Once she's assured that her companions are done examining the strange relics, she will venture forth into the eastern corridor, ever watchful.

Crafting +4 here, then will continue to explore in Search mode.

Ennoia slowly and carefully treads forward, motioning for the rest of the Pathfinders to follow her.

Feel free to join me on the map, feeling a little alone down there!

Ennoia continues looking for relevant things around in the southern hallway as she moves towards the intersection.

Continuing Searching along the way.

Ennoia warns her companions. "There's no telling if this place is trapped. Let me scout ahead." she says before treading carefully further, looking for traps or secret doors.

Using the Search Exploration activity. Perception +6

If Acrobatics is allowed, I'll definitely use that way of going down.

Once she's sure that Haohji is safe and sound, Ennoia will attempt to tumble down. As per discussion thread

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19
Acrobatics: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 23

Assuming first roll is a failure:
Ref: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (18) + 9 = 27

Ennoia looks at the descent with a raised eyebrow. "I guess I did sign up for it. Look, we might as well tie ourselves to avoid unnecessary falls." she says, hopefully before anyone climbs down. "I'll let you go first, since I'm not very good at climbing, even with one of those kits."

The idea would be to tie the climbers by the waist, and holding the rope or tieing it at the top of the cliff (to a rock, or even a camel!) so that we can avoid a tumble down the cliff.

@Haohji: don't forget the flat check (DC5) to avoid falls. Ennoia would lend you her climbing kit if you don't have one.

She also tries to find some standing out handholds.

Lore (Scouting): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10 Would that Lore work? Otherwise I have +1 in Nature.

Ennoia suppresses a hearty laugh as the stiff-upper-lip clerk leaves. She extends her hand to Sefu Mayo, smiling at him. "Well, some people just take themselves too seriously. Thankfully, there's humor. Well met, by the way, I'm Ennoia."

She then proceeds to check her inventory to make sure she has everything required for the task at hand. "So tell me, Sefu, what are we to expect on that cliff? Any local beasts that might give us trouble? Any competitors that have gone there recently? I'm ready to go, I assume we can talk on the way there."

While lost in thought at first trying to get the word right, camel!, Ennoia suddenly snaps out of it and beams a smile at Bob, replying joyfully. "Nice to meet you, Bob. Awfully sorry about what happened to you, but your genius is crafting devices is impressive!" she shakes Bob's hand as well, albeit still unsure of customs far away from her origin. "I call from the Mordant Spire myself, in the Steaming Sea. I... haven't been near people for most of my life... but I try to make up for it now!" she explains a bit clumsily. "In any case, you have a point. Climbing kits could certainly be helpful. We need ropes to the very least. Maybe time to gear up before we leave the market?"

Ennoia will purchase a climbing kit before leaving.

Welcome aboard!

Ennoia indeed chose the minor healing potion. Apologies for the lack of clarification.

Even if the voyage proves uneventful to most, the same cannot be said for the curious cave elf. While taking care of remaining within the shade of her newly-acquired umbrella, she makes a point in not missing a single opportunity to see what life on the ship has to offer. When the vessel drops finally the anchor in Aspenthar, Ennoia's eyes widen, eager to absorb all she can see, smell, or experience. Her curiosity, however, is cast aside at once the moment she catches sight of the richly-dressed Garundi lady. She nods in recognition at first, then relaizes the customs may not be what she's used to, and consequently shakes the offered hand. "Greetings, Gol Amri, I am Ennoia Rylintar of the Pathfinder Society, and these are my comrades-in-arms. The crafty Haohji, the grizzled Graeyson, the ruthless Studley Brightblade, and..." she cuts off her sentence, suddenly realizing she doesn't know the name of the newcomer. "... and you are?"

"Well, you are welcome among us, of course, that's what counts. If Ambrus Valsin deemed your presence important, we shall dwell on it no longer." Then turning to Gol Amri. "Straight to business, eh? I like that. I have a couple of questions for you. First off, do you expect any competition? Second, our leader mentioned you'd provide us with a guide. Are we to meet them soon? Finally, I'd like to know if we need any mounts to reach the site... these animals are called canelle, right?" she risks while pointing at the massive, two-humped local beasts that undoubtedly roam in the surroundings.

Yes, PF2e Untrained just means you don't add anything beside your ability score modifier. At low level, the difference isn't much, but as you gain in levels, Untrained really becomes outclassed by T/E/M/L.

Ennoia reads the note carefully, and her eyes seem to indicate that she's overjoyed at this task laid upon her. "I've always wanted to see the sands of Garund. It'll be my first time there! Any ideas on what we might bring? I guess light clothes are in order, as well as an umbrella." She storms out to find enough time to go to the market before travelling. "Meet you at the docks!"

Society +4

Any idea when we'll start? I was hoping to play Ennoia at Outpost, which grants us ample time for this quest, but I was just wondering.

Greetings, and thanks for hosting this game! I'm super excited about it. I'm in the course of doing one last quest which should allow me to level to 2.

Here's the requested information:
1) Ennoia Rylintar
2) Spiresworn Elf (cave)
3) +7 when game starts
4) Default exploration activity is Avoid Notice (Stealth +10 when game starts)
5) See #4
6) N/A
7) I'll have the Quiet Allies skill feat in case we decide to all be stealthy.

@Pirate Rob: Long time no see! I'm really glad to see you're still around.

Ennoia rejoys at the perspective of another mission. "Count me in, Sir. I'm eager to delve deeper into field studies."

Signed up! Thanks for that offer.

Thanks for that quest, cmlobue, and I really appreciate the offer to play another one. I'm up for it!

Day Job (performance), DC14: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 10

That was fast! Well done, team.

Ennoia beams an enigmatic smile at the offer, but shakes her head. "I must respectfully decline, as my loyalties lie elsewhere." She then joins her team mates in celebration, and prepares her report mentally.

Ennoia, firmly gripping her elven curved blade, moves in the shadows to approch the duergars and hopefully strike from behind. She nimbly circles around the duergar, hoping not to get noticed.

Assuming she starts her movement out of view and doesn't need to initially Hide before starting to Sneak:

◆ Sneak
◆ Sneak
◆ Sneak Stealth mod is +7 for the GM's hidden roll. Stealth rules for reference

↺ Nimble Dodge (+2 circumstance bonus to AC vs triggering attack if needed)

Aid (Nature or Survival, same score): 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Timidly, Ennoia leaves the lead to the more experienced Pathfinder. She attempts to help, but proves ultimately not very successful. She's about to apologize, but decides against it. However, she uses the opportunity to study Graeyson's expert performance.

The rogue treads carefully towards the traps, intending to help Graeyson disabling some obvious ones.
Aid, Thievery: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24

"There, that should help a bit."

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21

Ennoia elects to try keeping her balance as she walks to catch up with her companions. Her agile legs and spectacular stepwork allow her to walk unhindered and quickly join them. She frowns as she struggles to decipher the strange writings.

Society: 1d20 + 4 - 1 ⇒ (14) + 4 - 1 = 17

"I'm not sure, but I start gathering a few things from these scribblings. Wait a second..."

Apologies for being late, yesterday was hectic.

Thanks a lot for the clarification. I'll pick the minor healing potion, then.

"No time to waste, going fast is of the essence here. You don't want to be late at a date, do you?" she playfully says with a smirk. "I'm no stranger to danger."

Thanks a lot, GM. I'll pick a potency cristal and a minor healing potion, as Ennoia belongs to the Swords.

"I'm all set. Scouting team, let's go." she states with a decisive voice. "Let's be extra careful though, those duergars are bred to kill in the Darklands."

I also have Scouting Lore, if it helps (+4)

Ennoia was created in the very first months of PFS2, so I'm not sure if the following information is still relevant or not. On my character sheet, I wrote "Swords 2/Spell 1", and I seem to recall it allowed me to pick consumables at the start of a mission that can only be used for that mission. Is that the same thing?

Diplomacy +6

Ennoia listens to the Steel Falcon carefully, before risking a question. "What do we know of the tactics these duergar use? Do they have any... uncommon ability?" she wonders aloud.

Nodding to Graeyson, the elf explains. "I'm a scout, stealthy and capable of seeing in complete darkness. I'm no stranger to a bladefight either... I could venture first, ahead of you so that I remain unnnoticed and could report any obstacles to you before we're confronted to them"

In short, the moment we explore the caverns, I'll scout ahead stealthily to remain unnoticed. Stealth +7, Perception +6, and I have darkvision.

"Someone mentioned a drink? Now that's what I call a warm welcome. Explore, report, ... drink together, I guess?" a melodious voice fills the room. A lithe figure can now be seen in the doorframe, which you cannot discern well at first because of the sunglare. Three steps as light and graceful as a dancer's and the feminine figure stands before you, yet not with as many colours as the voice might have suggested. The figure comes into view as an ashen-skinned woman, half of her face and body covered with flowing white hair, and dressed in leather armor. Among the profusion of hair on her back, a large elven curved blade engraved with strange signs can be found. The elf - as her ears unmistakenably mark - holds out her hand for you. "I'm Ennoia Rylintar. Well met." she simply says.

She pauses, and waits until her thirst can be sated. "Have you got any ideas what we're in for, brave companions?"

Sturm would be proud indeed. He's an amazing inspiration for a champion.

Yay, Chainmail and Aeshuura in the same game, like the games of yore! Looking forward to this!

Amazing, thanks for proposing. I'll be putting up my character sheet online shortly.

Definitely interested!
