Gert's page

Thank you to Lithrac for running this, it was a lot of fun! It was really cool to follow up on the scenario I wrote. Thank you, thank you, thank you! And thank you for getting this experiment together!

A big thanks to my fellow Orphans as well, it was great to game with you guys! <3

"No al'Jakri, found scrying records." Gert offers. "Otherwise, I think it sums up this little trip nicely."

Gert studies the map in fascination.

Knowledge (Geography): 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11

GM Lithrac - I completely understand. I've been there myself recently. I am just not finding the same joy that I used to in PbP generally and work is keeping me very busy etc.

Gert and Old Lace will also be bowing out at the end of Slave Master's Mirror.

Gert and Old Lace do the 5' step dance again...after waiting for Wulfren to take a clear shot!

Attack (Gert): 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 6 + 2 = 18
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

Attack (Old Lace, bite): 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 7 + 2 = 13
Attack (Old Lace, claw): 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 7 + 2 = 11
Attack (Old Lace, claw): 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 7 + 2 = 28
Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

Gert and Old Lace both 5' step then attack

"You disgusting brute, stand down or be destroyed!" Gert shouts after seeing Ic go down.

Attack (Gert): 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 6 + 2 = 21
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

Attack (Old Lace, bite): 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 7 + 2 = 22
Attack (Old Lace, claw): 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 7 + 2 = 29 *threat*
Attack (Old Lace, claw): 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 7 + 2 = 23
Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4
Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

Attack (Old Lace, claw): 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 7 + 2 = 11 *no confirm*
Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3

I was thinking about this as well, and I would also favor the 'flashback' method even though it's slightly messy.

Another option would be to just rename the Desimire brothers going forward and make them into 'different' NPCs, though that may not really be any better than 'flashback.'

Attack (Gert): 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 6 + 2 = 11
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

Attack (Old Lace, bite): 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 7 + 2 = 18
Attack (Old Lace, claw): 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 7 + 2 = 12
Attack (Old Lace, claw): 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 7 + 2 = 23
Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6
Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7

Gert moves in on the gnoll, signaling Old Lace to come around from behind to flank the beast!

Attack (Gert): 1d20 + 6 + 2 - 1 ⇒ (10) + 6 + 2 - 1 = 17
Damage: 1d6 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 3 + 2 = 9

Attack (Old Lace, claw): 1d20 + 7 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 7 + 2 = 19
Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

Gret whispers to Anaristiel, "Let's go with Desimire."

Gert nods along listening to LIam and Ana. "Revenge?" she offers with a meek expression on her face.

I keep forgetting to pick up a wand also Ana. I've gone ahead and updated my HL character with one so I don't forget again, but do not currently have one either.

"Do we need to go after those other two? Or should we quickly move on with our business?" Gert asks as she searches Farug.

Knowledge (nature): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 24

Gert orders Old Lace to attack and then will take out a flask of alchemist's fire and throw it at the beast!

Bite: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15
Claw: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16
Claw: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26

Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7
Damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4

Touch attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 4 = 17
Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 4

Gert takes a 5' step toward the mutant hyena and swings her club again! She then whistles at Old Lace to join in the fun!

Attack: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 6 + 2 = 12
Damage: 1d6 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 3 + 2 = 11

Old Lace moves in and tries to bite the hyena!

Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 23
Damage: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5

Gert swings at Farug!

Gert club: 1d20 + 6 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 6 + 3 = 29 *threat*
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

Old Lace moves up bites at the Gnoll next to Liam.

Old Lace bite: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (2) + 0 = 2
Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 4

Confirm?
Gert club: 1d20 + 6 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 6 + 3 = 17
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

I just realized it was never really clarified, and I'm open to whatever seems reasonable...but where is Old Lace? :)

As a slave I would understand she wouldn't be with me. As a slave master though ??? I'm not sure what makes the most sense here. Not that I'm concerned about fighting a guy who does d12+9 or anything...:)

Gert swings her club at Farug!

Attack: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 6 + 2 = 16
Damage: 1d6 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 3 + 2 = 9

Gert moves in front of Ic, drops Wulfren's powder horn and then cast bull strength on herself!

Gert does her best to keep the hyena calm and pacified, asking the spirits of nature to grant her guidance first.

Wild Empathy: 1d20 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 3 + 1 = 7

Gert is cool to wait till night if that's what the group wants to do, but tactically I'd rather not.

GM: Gert will take the paper scraps with her.

Gert pretends to check on the lock of the slave area.

Fort Save: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23

Gert seems to be enjoying the pace and the heat.

Once inside the Fort, Gert looks for an opportunity to check out the smashed chest and scraps of paper if she can do so without arousing undue suspicion.

When she has a moment of privacy with Ana, she asks in Shoanti: "What was all that with the halfling?"

Gert does her best to look like Ic got what he deserved, and not react in anger to the assault of her friend!

Gert buys a set of false manacles and a skeleton key before leaving Absalom. She'll make sure the manacles are on Liam and he's familiar with the secret release.

"False manacles would be a fantastic idea Ana!" Gert says. "Wulf, I don't really have anything that needs to be shrunk, but if you'd like I could carry your powder horn in miniature form?"

I assume in the role of a slave master, I'm not overly constrained with what gear I'm carrying?

Gert looks to Ana, her eyes steely, "Since a slave would never be allowed to have a velociraptor, I think perhaps I should pose as the slave master. "

Gert familiarizes herself with the chest and the command words.

Updated and ready!

PFS # 9783 - 9

I'll get Gert updated today or tomorrow.

And I'll second the thanks to Lithrac for running this! Glad to hear you local lodge enjoyed Slave Ships!

Dino dot.

Next up should be Sewer Dragon's of Absalom, which I'm scheduled to run. Switching this 3-7 for that one would probably be fine. I could run it, but if DMK is up for it I wouldn't mind playing it first :)

Gert shuffles in toward the hobgoblin and goads Old Lace, "Get outta Wulf's way ya bag a bones!" She then waits for Old Lace to move into the flank and they both attack the hobgoblin!

Old Lace (bite): 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 6 + 2 = 13
Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 4

Old Lace (claw): 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 6 + 2 = 22
Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5

Old Lace (claw): 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 6 + 2 = 11
Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2

Gert Attack: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 5 + 2 = 21
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

Yeah, my bad. Sorry :)

Assuming he isn't dazed/surrenders. If he is, Gert will knock him down and bind him instead.

Gert steps into the room and swings her club at the remaining hobgoblin!

Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

Gert gives a high pitched whistle and calls for Old Lace to attack the beast!

Attack bite: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (16) + 6 = 22
Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 3

PFS # 9783-9
Faction: Grand Lodge
No Day Job

Gert will move up to the doorway, trying to block the hobgoblins from coming through. She swings her club at the one standing in the doorway!

Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

"Old Lace, follow Wulf!" she orders. Double move, but stops behind Wulf.

Gert says, "You mean like sing it campfire songs?"

Sorry, no wand I'm a terrible healer :)

I believe T10 on my climb 10 + 6 = 16 with the rope should be sufficient...

Gert Ref: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 2 = 17

"Yipes!" Gert exlaims as she falls down the pit! "Well that's just fantastic!" Gert looks around at the bottom of the pit before throwing her rope up for the others to help her climb back out.

Gert Ref: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 2 = 16
Old Lace Ref: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (11) + 6 = 17

Gert points at the hallway and tells Old Lace to guard. She then walks over to the door and checks it out. Perception (take 10): 10 + 9 = 19

"Old Lace's nose is pretty good, maybe we can leave a snack out there for her to help her find her way back." Gert offers. "The chalk will be very helpful Liam!"

Gert has some carnivore food to offer, as long as Old Lace looks the other way. :)

Tracks from the skeletons, or other tracks?

Old Lace watches Liam as he pokes at the bones, then finally darts in taking the biggest bone she can before carrying it off to chew on happily.

Gert checks around the area...

Survival: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (17) + 11 = 28

Old Lace continues to attack the bugbear skeleton!

Bite: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 6 + 2 = 19
Claw: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 6 + 2 = 28
Claw: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 6 + 2 = 13

Bite: 1d4 ⇒ 4
Claw: 1d6 ⇒ 5
Claw: 1d6 ⇒ 5

Claw: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 6 + 2 = 21 *confirm*
Claw: 1d6 ⇒ 5

Gert moves forward toward the bugbear skeleton. Double move.

Old Lace continues to attack the bugbear skeleton!

Bite: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 6 + 2 = 17
Claw: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 6 + 2 = 12
Claw: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 6 + 2 = 13

Bite: 1d4 ⇒ 1
Claw: 1d6 ⇒ 5
Claw: 1d6 ⇒ 2

Gert moves forward toward the violet skeleton and swings her mighty club: disable device!

Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16
Damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

Gert Sense Motive: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22

Gert Perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (8) + 9 = 17
Old Lace Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22

Gert is not quite as quick to react as her dinosaur companion, but Old Lace smelling something strange rushes forward and claws the skeleton!

Attack: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25
Damage: 1d6 ⇒ 6

"Hello? Guaril? Guaril Karela? Drandle Dreng sent us." Gert calls out.

Gert nods at Gaspar, "Thank you for that. Perhaps another time our paths will cross and you can tell me more about the Order of the Pike."

To the others: "Shall we meet this Guaril Karela then?"
