Chronicle downloaded! Thank you, Nomadical!
I'll probably bring a level one or two to that quest.

That one looks fun. :)
"Hey! Look at this," Gamble says as he pulls back the edge of the robe to reveal the badge. "This should be useful."
Gamble steps out of the way of the Silver Devil. Then he strikes the adjutant with his sword, and a rune appears on the Chelish man's chest. "Artyl-holtrik!" Gamble says. The rune on the adjutant explodes while the rune on Gamble's shield shimmers and ruses into a defensive position.
Level, rank, rank, level... oi. Thanks for catching that. :)
Gamble swings his blade at the adjutant. Upon impact--if it lands--the would bleeds profusely and a symbol appears on the man's chest. "Ranshu-esvadir-atryl!" Gamble intones and the runes on the adjutant and his sword glow. A torrent of energy swarms the adjutant. Gamble raises his shield.
OK. AC is 20 for the moment, then. :)
Ganble moves closer. With the Chelish adjutant surrounded by zombie, the runesmith pauses. He chants out a rhyme in a foreign tongue, which causes a symbol to appear upon the adjutant's forehead.
Samantha: we have a pool of edge points (6 left) that you can spend one on to turn your fail into a success without even needing to roll one. Please use an edge points. If not for some reason, I’ll accept one from the pool to use.
Gamble is stymied for the moment by the trap.
"I remember something they said while we were drinking," Gamble comments as he considers the warren of buildings.
Before we get into combat, back during preparations, I could have etched 1 rune for someone. Gamble etched 1 of his 2 etchings on his own weapon. I have 1 rune etching left to give away:
Gamble tries to follow Jack, aiming for boards that are nailed down better.
There would have been no question about how Gamble would choose to gather information: gossip and drink!
Gamble nods in agreement with Samantha's recollection.
"Sounds simple," Gamble says wryly. "Do we have an more intelligence on the area?"
"Coffee if you don't have ale or mead," the blond-haired, bearded Ulfen man in a fur-lined breastplate says as he joins the table. He carries a sword on his belt and sets a reinforced steel shield beside himself. An arcane rune glitters on the shield. "I'm Gamble," he says to those in attendance at the table.
I have 1 rune etched on my sword. I have 1 rune etching left to give away:
Nothing automatic but everything playtest. :) And 2 glyphs.
quick find
I do appreciate Ilmakis picking this game up when he didn't have to, and I hope his son is doing well.
Thank you so much, GM redeux (and Numbat and Tyranus). I really appreciate the time you had to spend doing this for us. without intimate knowledge of your characters ...after this many and this long of gaps, I don't have intimate knowledge of my own character. :(
Character Name: Chulyin the Spirit-Talker
Thank you, GM redeux.
I relayed our predicament to Numbat, also. They said they'd look into it, but life appears to be entangling everyone lately.
Yes. PbP lodge has a special system set up to issue chronicles on abandoned games.
They are the same person.
I had asked earlier to have the Chronicles released, but that was during PaizoCon. I have no desire to try with a third GM or pick back up with either previous GM at this point. We've made it into the final chapter, so we should get a full Chronicle as if we had TPK'ed during our current fight. I'll ask again, but other people asking wouldn't hurt.
Gamble drops his bow and draws his longsword as he advances upon the nearest orc. He thrusts his blade at the warrior .
Gamble looses his arrow at the first orc he spies .
Gamble pulls out an arrow and prepares to fire at the first orc through the gate.
Readied Attack:
"If they're not in a hurry to face us, then let's take the advantage of time," Gamble moves away from the palisade and sets down his staff. He then draws his hunting bow. "Shield!" he commands, summoning a translucent Ulfen shield.
"We are a small force to lay siege to a fort, certainly, but we are clever. We can take the fortress," Gamble encourages his companions. He readies his staff to swing should the orcs emerge to engage.
Readied Strike (melee):
"Best get ready for a fight," Gamble says and stands next to the wall, two hands on his staff.
”Yes. They looked to be apprenticing under this V,” Gamble answers Elendyr.
"No. No grapple. I can honestly say that I didn't expect to storm a castle," Gamble confesses. "Here, let me see if I can help you." He moves to stand next to the palisade. Aid Deerslicer in Climb:
"Deerslicer, do you think you could get over the wall and unbar the door?" he quietly asks the goblin.
"It does not appear to be guarded. On this side, at least," he says quietly to his companions. Gamble approaches slowly and surveys the gate.
Yes, we did. Sleeping bear.
Recovered after a decent rest, Gamble gathers an antiplague and antidote from the local alchemist.
I favor resuming the main quest.
"Bring him back to our house, let him sleep it off, fill his belly with food in the morning, and then try to embolden him to do the right thing," Gamble says with a wince. 'I could use a rest after having my insights frozen cold."
"Again, I am not certain browbeating him into an apology will work," Gamble says. "If you terrorize him too much, I fear he will just slink away to one of the abandoned homes and leave the town haunted."
"I'm not sure how you're going to convince the ghost to work with Sir Krent," Gamble wonders. "And my illusions won't fool a ghost, either. I don't think any of us should be volunteering for the role of monster."
"He abandoned him in battle to hide, which likely contributed to Talmore falling in battle. At least in Talmore's eyes," Gamble reminds Simon. |
