Geshko Hawthorne's page

Aren't the boxes supposed to be checked by the GM?
Also, is the +1 cold iron shortsword we recovered from the vermilek not something we have on chronicle sheets?

"Huzzah!" Geshko shouts as the demonic influence is cleansed.
He turns to the group.
"Great job, fellow agents. I hope to work with you again!"

Geshko will help the Pathfinder Society catalog and clean up after the combat is finished.
Pathfinder Society Lore: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16
4 silver.

Anyone else want to heal? I've got a potion if no one wants to Treat Wounds.

Geshko has Healer's Tools, bit not the Medicine skill to use it (picking up Natural Medicine at level 2).

Geshko watches Miss Sorbet go down to the random arrow.
"No!" he shouts, then yells a command. "Animal! GET 'IM!"
Animal responds instantly, rushing to the battle with teeth bared.
He drops his bow and moves to interpose, drawing the cold iron blade they picked up from their battle with the elves.

◆ Command an Animal
A◆ Stride
A◆ Strike Bite: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 101d6 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7
◆ Interact (draw weapon)
◆ Stride

I think we've had a run of bad luck- that random arrow hitting Sorbet, dropping her, instead of one of the full hp characters was nuts. I agree we should stop.

Sorry, Geshko has marked and is firing over Sorbet into Black.

Geshko moves up to get a better shot, and notices these... things absolutely rip into Elias and Sorbet.
"Elias! Sorbet! Fall back to Mibli and heal up!"
He studies the acidic hounds, and fires a single shot with his bow.

◆ Stride
◆ Hunt Prey (◇ Recall Knowledge, +2 Bonus)
◆ Strike +1 Striking Shortbow: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 7 + 1 = 162d6 ⇒ (5, 5) = 10
How long does Magic Weapon last, 10 rounds?

Geshko knows he can't intimidate or distract the mindless armor, so he decides to use brute force.
"Again, Animal!" He shouts, while loosing two more arrows.

◆ Strike +1 Striking Shortbow: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 7 + 1 = 252d6 ⇒ (3, 2) = 5
◆ Strike +1 Striking Shortbow MAP: 1d20 + 7 + 1 - 5 ⇒ (13) + 7 + 1 - 5 = 162d6 ⇒ (1, 5) = 6
◆ Command an Animal
A◆ Strike Agile Claw MAP: 1d20 + 6 - 8 ⇒ (3) + 6 - 8 = 11d4 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 41d4 ⇒ 1
A◆ Strike Agile Claw MAP: 1d20 + 6 - 8 ⇒ (4) + 6 - 8 = 21d4 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 31d4 ⇒ 1

"Animal, get 'em round back!" He orders, as he sidesteps to get a clear shot on the armor and looses the arrow.

◆ Stride
◆ Strike +1 Striking Shortbow: 1d20 + 7 + 1 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 7 + 1 + 1 = 192d6 ⇒ (1, 4) = 5
◆ Command an Animal
A◆ Stride
A◆ Strike or Stride
(if Animal can reach this spot in one Stride then he will Strike the flanked Armor) Claw, agile MAP: 1d20 + 6 + 1 - 4 ⇒ (9) + 6 + 1 - 4 = 121d4 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 51d4 ⇒ 1

FYI, Geshko shares the weakness, so everyone in the party gains a +1 to their next attack roll.

Geshko watches the dagger break, and holds his second shot. He studies the Armor as a sly smile creeps across his face.

It doesn't much matter with the dagger (cause it's destroyed) but if Geshko critically succeeds on a Recall Knowledge check, Monster Hunter gives a +1 to his next attack that he can share with the party.
Even though I doubt he can get anymore information than Khaldan did, he would roll anyway.

"Thank you, Khaldan. Let's hope I use it well!" Geshko responds. He studies a dagger and fires two quick shots at it.

◆ Hunt Prey (red dagger)
◇ Recall Knowledge (Monster Hunter) Arcana +5
◆ Strike +1 striking Shortbow: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 7 + 1 = 242d6 ⇒ (6, 4) = 10
◆ Strike +1 striking Shortbow MAP: 1d20 + 7 + 1 - 5 ⇒ (4) + 7 + 1 - 5 = 72d6 ⇒ (4, 3) = 7

"Never trust a demon." Geshko mutters, and tries to identify what kind of demon this is. He hopes that knowledge could inform himself or his allies as to the nature of the ritual and the barrier.

Hunt Prey, with Automatic Recall Knowledge.
Secret Roll- 1d20+4 Religion+ 2 Cirumstance bonus for Hunt Prey or Rushed Evil

Does not matter. Wow.

Geshko uses the Turning Tides reroll.
Survival with Hunt Prey: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 4 + 2 = 8
If Animal can aid: Perception w/ imprecise scent: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

Oh yeah, I'll use that as well.
Also, can Animal aid? He doesn't have Survival, but has Perception and Scent.

Geshko checks Animal, calming him down from the battle and feeding him a snack.
He offers his Healers Tools to anyone who can make the Medicine check.

Appropriately enough, Geshko takes a Weapon Potency Crystal from the Cleric of Yuelral.
"Thank you for your help." He says quietly. "I'm going to see if I can find where he went."
Survival to Track with Hunt Prey Bonus: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 4 + 2 = 14

I am... not very effective. Thinking of respeccing into Precision or Flurry Ranger before I hit level two!

"Animal, up! Get ready to charge!" Geshko shouts, as he notches and fires two more arrows.

◆ Command an Animal
A◆ Stride
A◆ Stride Not sure if you need an Acrobatics or Climb check to get up on the platform, but he's taking two actions to get to the corner.

◆ Strike Shortbow: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26Piercing: 1d6 ⇒ 2
◆ Strike Shortbow MAP: 1d20 + 7 - 5 ⇒ (14) + 7 - 5 = 16Piercing: 1d6 ⇒ 1

Gotcha, thank you for the peek behind the screen. ^_^

So the DC for him would be at least a 25 (15 level 1 DC, +10 unique), meaning the roll of 23 (16 roll +5 Society +2 Hunt Prey bonus) was not enough.

Just curious what Knowledge skill was rolled for the elf with a +2... I thought Elves were Society or maybe Nature, at a +5 or +4 respectively...

I don't know if there were penalties added in, or if it was a mistake. I'm trying to get familiar with 2E, and Recall Knowledge is one of the overhauls I'm having a hard time grokking. Thank you.

"It would be better for you if you surrender now." Geshko shouts while advancing, studying Nathaniel's attacks and dodges. He fires another arrow.

◆ Stride
◆ Hunt Prey on Nathaniel (Free Recall Knowledge with +2 bonus, Crit success grants +1 on next attack for me and allies I tell.)
◆ Strike Shortbow: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 271d6 ⇒ 1
Crit! Double damage and Deadly d10: 1d10 ⇒ 10

Geshko used it to make sure the Vermilek was dead, but he would have given it to any melee fighters that wanted it during our rest.
If no one took it, I guess he still has it... he *can* use it quite effectively if need be, given its a Finesse weapon.

"Kyonin is already great, no need to make it great again!" Geshko responds.
"Animal, prowl right"
He and the cat move into position and Geshko fires a shot.

◆ Command an Animal
A◆ Stride

◆ Strike Shortbow: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 141d6 ⇒ 1

"You have my bow. You shall not be disturbed!"
Geshko and Animal act as spotters, keeping their eyes, ears, and noses out for threats.
Perception: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 6 + 2 = 14
You know what? HERO POINT!
Perception Reroll: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 6 + 2 = 22

Geshko deftly places the crystals around the square.
Thievery: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 7 = 10
Or not so deftly! Ouch!

Sorry, was traveling back from the shore today!
Geshko searches for carts to pilfer.
Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20
Thievery: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9
Once a cart has been obtained, Geshko tries to identify the contents based on his memories of old witch tales told around the caravan wagons.
Occultism or Curse Lore, same bonus: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16

Geshko scans the area for more threats, as he can't see the enemies under the bridge.
"Animal, wrap it up!"

◆ Command an Animal
A◆ Strike Bite Piercing: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 6 = 101d6 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 51d4 ⇒ 4
A◆ Strike Claw Slashing: 1d20 + 6 - 4 ⇒ (8) + 6 - 4 = 101d4 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 41d4 ⇒ 1
◆ Active Perception Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20
◆ Hunt Prey on any threats

If the arrow was a Critical Success, shortbows have deadly d10.
Deadly d10: 1d10 ⇒ 8
Not sure if that would take down his target, possibly causing Animal to target one of the scouts, and possibly Sorbet would target the other one...

To clarify, if I get a critical Success from the Recall Knowledge, I get a +1 on my next attack. I can then share that with the group. ^_^

Geshko studies the battle below, specifically the Runner threatening Miss Sorbet, and then nocks an arrow.
"Sorbet! Duck!" he yells. "Get 'em, Animal!" he fires an arrow into his prey.

◆ Hunt Prey on Runner (Free Recall Knowledge check- +1 on critical success)
◆ Strike Runner Shortbow: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 231d6 ⇒ 3
◆ Command an Animal
A◆ Stride
A◆ Strike Scout B (flanked) Claw: 1d20 + 6 - 4 ⇒ (16) + 6 - 4 = 181d4 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 51d4 ⇒ 3

NM, the GMG explicitly rules on this type of situation.

Geshko finishes his climb to the top of the stairs, opens the hatch, and moves to the edge of the fortifications.

◆ Stride 5' up the stairs
◆ Interact to open hatch
◆ Stride to edge

Can I do it during a Stride, or do I need to move 5' up stairs, interact, and then move again?

Does getting onto the top of the wall require an Interact action to open the hatch, and can it be done in the middle of a Stride action?

4, 3, 1

Geshko notices the opening and makes a run for it.
"I'll cover you from above!"

◆◆◆ Stride x3- 75'
25' to opening, 25' of (difficult terrain) stairs. Geshko is 5' of stairs from the hatch.

Is there any way to climb up the wall? Geshko would like to post up on the high ground if possible.

I agree, it does, but if we don't tell the GM we are doing it (especially if we can't do it ourselves) did we do it?

Sounds good to me! ^_^

I'd rather we not use consumables when we still have Treat Wounds and Heal spells available to us.
Is Mibli the only one with Medicine?

After the rest:
Animal is down 5
Elias is down 7
Miss Sorbet is down 11
Mibli is down 11

Medicine checks should be done first for free healing. Any Heal spells can top off those still wounded. Prioritize those down more health! ^_^

Geshko skulks around the Constabulary seeing if he can overhear anything law enforcement is worried about.
Then, he'll head to the Farmer's Market and see if he can identify and talk to any pickpockets or other criminals.
Constabulary, Stealth: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18
Farmer's Market, Thievery: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19

Geshko offers his Healers Tools to anyone that can use them and asks they also attempt to treat Animal's bites.
(The full night's rest brings Geshko up to full, but Animal is still down 5)

Animal Reflex: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25
Animal Reflex: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11
"Animal!" Geshko shouts as the cat is covered by the swarm of rodents. Fortunately, Miss Sorbet is able to disperse them. "Stay back, good kitty."
He studies this group of rabbits, then swings the bladed scarf around himself, launching several attacks (with reach) into the swarm.

[Ooc]◆ Hunt Prey
◆ Strike Bladed Scarf: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 111d6 ⇒ 3
◆ Strike Bladed Scarf: 1d20 + 7 - 5 ⇒ (6) + 7 - 5 = 81d6 ⇒ 3

Specifically whether it's only piercing damage these swarms are resistant to.
Nm, just saw the spoiler tag

Did Geshko learn anything from Recall Knowledge on the swarm? Nature is +6 with Hunt Prey bonus.
