I agree, we should give him a proper burial. It seems there is an entrance further into the caverns that he was guarding with his...unlife. After we have laid the Abbot to his rest we should explore the caverns. There is something worth guarding if a man's oath to protect it would keep him after death. ![]()

Though in truth, I don't know where I am now. I thought I was alone until I happened upon this place and the giantess sent me to your aid. It is a welcome relief that there are others like me. I take it you...bear the mark as well? ![]()

HP: (39/39) AC 16 (FF 15, Touch 11) CMD 13 FS +4, RS +2, WS +4, Initiative: +5 Perception: +8 Darkvision ![]() Actually, now that I've thought about it more, it does make more sense for me to take Flagbearer as my third level feat instead of Sphere Focus (Hex). I chose the latter originally when I had Dark Fog, but I got rid of Dark Fog when I saw that was Altair's shtick. So now my feat literally does nothing. So maybe I can retrain it out when we get a level up, or if it's not too late maybe I can switch out Sphere Focus for Flagbearer now? It wouldn't have had an impact on the battle (besides giving everyone a +1 to attack), and mechanically I would just have to use a buckler instead of a heavy shield (so I could hold the flag when I use my Lightning Sphere and Dark Bolt). Is this ok? I won't ask for any other "rebuilds" and I usually catch these things, but I made my character late one night and missed it. ![]()

Norowas throws another pulse of light at the Abbot, but his aim is distracted by his admiration for his foe's tenacity. Standard: Lightning Spear with Burning Lore, hit Touch AC of 12 for 11 electricy damage Effects: Sacred Oath (+3 sacred bonus to damage for all allies) 4/6 rounds remaining, Empowered Attack (+2 bonus to attack for Norowas) 2/4 rounds remaining Rolls: Burning Lore to boost CL to 6 Burning Lore, 1-50 Backlash, 51-100 no Backlash: 1d100 ⇒ 52 Ranged Touch Lightning Spear CL 6, empowered attack: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 4 + 2 = 12 Electricity damage plus Sacred Oath bonus: 3d6 + 3 ⇒ (3, 4, 1) + 3 = 11

I could get the Flagbearer feat maybe--if I could buy (or craft) a Banner of Ancient Kings it would actually synergize really well with my Bard Demi-Gestalt. As is now it is much worse than Demon Slayer, it's true. ![]()

It seemed to fit the flavor better (and will at least help a little when I get Inspire Courage). ![]()

I can just cast things as is and have no chance of backlash. And when I get to I think it's Level 7 I can make others suffer the backlash instead of me (either allies willingly or enemies with a failed save). So I should be alright. I won't get too crazy with it. But when my spell pool is depleted I can use an 8 CL hail mary (which could be pumped up with souls, in dire situations). ![]()

Thanks for the clarification! Do you want me to continue rolling the Perform (Sing) checks when the DC is low enough that I succeed even on a 1? Or should I only roll if there's a chance of failure? Norowas steps around the pillar, chanting. The hum reverberates, shaking the already weakening foundation and coalescing into a beam of light that he fires at the Abbot. Return to your rest and harry us no longer. Move action: to indicated spot. Standard: Lightning Spear with Burning Lore and an Invocation. Hit 22 Touch AC for 12 electricity damage. Effects: Sacred Oath (+3 sacred bonus to damage for all allies) 5/6 rounds remaining, Empowered Attack (+2 bonus to attack for Norowas) 3/4 rounds remaining Rolls: Burning Lore to boost CL to 6, use an invocation to use empowered attack (+2 attack bonus for 4 rounds) Perform Sing DC 21: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (16) + 19 = 35 Burning Lore, 1-50 Backlash, 51-100 no Backlash: 1d100 ⇒ 36 Backlash= 1 point of Con Burn Ranged Touch Lightning Spear CL 6, empowered attack: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 4 + 2 = 22 Electricity damage plus Sacred Oath bonus: 3d6 + 3 ⇒ (1, 2, 6) + 3 = 12

He sings a song in a strange tongue that resonates with the magic within all of them. Seeing the two in peril near the abbot, he interposes himself between them and their enemy. Cast Sacred Oath, spend a spell point to make it last for one round/CL. Everyone gains +3 sacred damage to all attacks. Also, I will use an invocation to give everyone 4 temporary HP that stacks with other sources of temp HP and lasts for 1 round. Move action. Rolls: Perform Sing DC 21: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (1) + 19 = 20 Wow, nice start to the campaign ;-) It says for every 2 that I fail, my CL is at -1. I failed by 1, so am I good, or do I drop one? I'll be at either CL 5 or 6 based on your response. Burning Lore, 1-50 Backlash, 51-100 no Backlash: 1d100 ⇒ 21

His armament seems to be harvested from the forest itself, living wood and leaves. He recoils a bit at the giant's voice, but rights himself and bows courteously. Well met, Lucina. I am Norowas, from the Atlantean Kingdom, though it seems I'm a long way from home. I feared I was alone, but if there are others like me, and they're in danger, I must help them before it's too late. Many thanks for your assistance!

You have arrived at the abbey just after the party has left for the basement. A giant named Lucina was there to great you and informs you that a party of Inheritors had gone below. She has hears several loud crashes and is worried about what has become of them. so I'm going to join the gameplay thread. ![]()
