Is there room for a level 01 Kitsune Ronin? I have not played this scenario, yet.

Does Tenacious Shifting effect “Wild Shape”, since it’s essentially “Beast Shapes ii”? Or in the case of my Weretouched Spider Shifter, “Vermin Shape ii”.

Can you all please fill out slides 2 and 3?

THANKS

Sorry about that! All done! And sorry if I’m making this game a bit…. Odd. My character is definitely a strange one, and I understand it isn’t necessarily to everyone’s tastes. If you need my to tone it down, I fully understand.

Also, I need to ask: would everyone be alright, with me making a comic out of our adventure? It’ll be sold through “Pathfinder Infinite”, after I finish the first adventure with my Kobolds comic (roughly 3-4 months, from now).

Sorry I’m late! Just got the message!

• Experience with PbP: I mostly played Pathfinder Adventure, but did get in a play through a single session of “Race for The Runecarved Key”, as my Kobold Character, Tarka. I will be using her, here.

- Class(es)/Level: Tarka is a 01 Gunslinger (Bushwhacker/ Maverick/ Pistolero)

- Played or GM’ed this Scenario?: No

Any new 1st level standard campaigns coming out? I not only have plenty of 1st level characters, but got Tabletop Simulator, and would like to try it out with a 1st level adventure, using my Kitsune Ronin 01.

If anyone is interested, please PM me.

I would like to join, with my Level 01 Gunslinger Kobold (Bushwhacker/ Maverick/ Pistolero archetype)! Would that be alright?

Anyone interested in a Kobold Sniper (Gunslinger Class, Bushwhacker/ Pistolero/ Maverick archetypes)? Level 01.

If so, please PM.

Hey, good news, everyone! After a long time, the comic is going to be put back into production! I had to stop for a while, due to personal concerns. But it’s back to it!

Back. Been a busy week! Glad we won!

But does this mean Tarka is dead?

”Take this!”, Tarka shouts, as she runs runs and shoots at the cultist! The Orange one

Up Close & Deadly (Attack): 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 1 = 12
Up Close & Deadly (Damage): 1d6 + 1 + 1d6 ⇒ (1) + 1 + (5) = 7

”Now we talking! Time to shoot!”

Shoot at the Hydra (Attack): 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 1 = 14
Shoot at the Hydra (Damage): 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

Tarka then reloads her pistol with another Alchemical Cartridge. Another move action to reload.

”Eat this!” Tarka shouts, as she moves directly in line with the Hydra, and fires a shot!

Up Close & Deadly (Attack): 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 2 = 11
Up Close & Deadly (Damage): 1d6 + 2 + 6 ⇒ (4) + 2 + 6 = 12

That was fun! Now, onto a real fight! What do you, comrades?

Peeking at everyone's profile, it looks like Seltyel is our face with the only charisma above 10 lol.

Not entirely true - my Kobold, Tarka, has a 14 in Charisma. And the luck with the dice to help!

That sounds like a...complicated creature!

I should be interested in seeing its stats and whatnot.

14 In Strength, Dexterity, Wisdom, & Charisma; 12 In Intelligence; and 10 in Constitution.

Her trained skills are: Acrobatics 01 (+06), Climb 01 (+06), Diplomacy 01 (+09), Knowledge (Nature) 01 (+05), and Stealth 01 (+08)

An Intimidate check would be appropriate here.

Threaten Rinks to calm down (Intimidate): 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (17) + 2 = 19

Hey, question: Is it too late to retcon a trait of Tarka’s? I just learned, yesterday, that she can’t have “Bountiful Herb-Lore”, since she doesn’t come from Cassomir. If it’s alright with you, I would instead like to replace it with “Kobold Faith”, which doesn’t seem likely to affect the current campaign, either. But is more on-point.

Tarka grumbles, but understands Khon’Ur’s suggestion. She leaves the undergrowth, figuring she won’t be able to reach the northern guard, in time
Basically, a move action.

Wow! That sounds amazing! I had no clue that it was this kind of big project! Now Seltyel is very nervous about every action he takes...

No need to be! I’m sure he’ll do fine, as he currently was!

Oh, wait…. I misread, this whole time! It wasn’t weight, but cost! Sorry, everyone!

Note that you can use Masterwork transformation to make it masterwork.

Gotcha

Never mind. Just learned about “Pathfinder Infinite”!

Okay, good news, folks! Thanks to the legal freedom of Paizo’s “Pathfinder Inifinite”, this’ll become a full-on comic, purchased on their website! Unfortunately, it’s going to be an exclusive deal, there. Still! You will each get to have feedback on the comic development! And I will pay you the money, both to get a PDF of the comic, at the least!

Yet another question, by me! What are the legal requirements to make a webcomic, based on your PFS characters? Are you at least able to mention them as being in Golarian? And if it is legally allowed, would anyone read it? It would be free (like most webcomics). Lastly, for anyone interested in reading it - should the dice mechanics be shown? Just the end results? Or nothing at all?

oooh PFS1, that makes it easy. Scorpion Whip(extc) lgt wpn is 5GP. A Special Materials Bone one is (50%) 2.5GP with half hardness and Fragile Quality. BUT the text in Para 2 has a bunch of commas making it a bit complex. I'd say it's legal being a light weapon and thet the "B" dmg is for two-hnd wpns only.

Fragile is going to be an issue. Masterwork AND a +1 ehnc will fix that BUT it really doesn't have anything to overcome DR. I'd also read up on the area that whips provoke as it's less than you may think.

hmm Arachne Shifter isn't on the approved PC race list (it's not on AoN at all) so that will take a boon/cert to open that race.

I'd suggest you get a mwk cold iron cestus then enchant that as it will be an always in hand weapon that you can mix with claws. Others: Obsidian daggers, Scimitar, Sling (first level).

No need for a boon, as an Arachne is NOT even a true monster, in Pathfinder lore (Driders are)! In this context, an Arachne is a Spider “Weretouched” Shifter. Also, your math is a bit off. According to official errata, a Scorpion Whip is actually 3 pounds, split in half by being made of bone (meaning a bone scorpion whip is 1.5 pounds). That said? The whip stays. I have important uses for it.

Anyways. I got an official ruling. You do pay half for half-pounds. So even at 1.5 pounds, that’s 150 GP, for magically treating a standard weapon. Not worth it, though a magically treated bone MASTERWORK scorpion whip would be! Since it can be upgraded, still.

Once PbP GameDay XI is over, would anyone be willing to play with a level 01 Spider “Weretouched” Shifter?

Okay, thank you!

Hello? Do we need to do something specific, to be marked as a player? Because I already filled out the form, using my Kobold Gubslinger, but haven’t been marked as a player, yet….

So! How is everyone, today?

Alright! I posted my chronicle information!

Hello! I’ll go first!

Chronicle #: 3
Player: Gothic_Artificer
Character: Tarka Slitherscales of the Thunderscales Tribe
PFS #: 2374381-1
Faction: Grand Lodge
Slow/Normal: Normal
Starting XP: 000
Initial Fame/PP: 000/000
Starting GP: 48GP
Day Job roll: Gunsmith/ Craft(Firearms) = Crafting(Firearms): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

My character, Tarka, is a Kobold Gunslinger. I have a race boon, to play her. I also have another GM credit, for the “Welcome to Pathfinder Society” boon, which allows her two Elixirs of Renewal; this was under the “Liberty’s Edge” faction.

Okay, people! If you want a lower tier (01-03) version of the Special, for PFS1, please waitlist your characters! If enough people waitlist, they may make them!

I haven't seen this particular boon, I'm assuming it has text that allows you to take these options? According to additional resources, nothing from Kobolds of Golarion or the Kobold section of ARG is legal.

Yeah, the Kobold Boon makes these two legal sources, provides you follow certain restrictions. And I didn’t know that I didn’t have to take “Mixed Scales”, in order to take the black scales exclusive trait, “Sneaky Swimmer”, using “Extra Traits”. That’s useful to know, in advance. As for the lack of +1 natural armor? I had my suspicions, but wasn’t entirely sure. But anyways! Thank you all for the input! I’ll take it all into consideration, as I move forward with my character!

Double-check the feat's prerequisites. If you do not have Draconic Aspect or Dragon-scaled, you do not meet the feat's prerequisites.

Not what I asked. I already plan to get “Draconic Aspect” and “Mixed Scales”. Problem is, I don’t know if I just get to use Black Kobold-exclusive traits (thanks to “Extra Traits”), or if I get the +1 Natural armor, as well. Personally, I know which one makes the most sense, based on the wording. But I’d rather make sure, first.

A shadowy green-black figure comes out, and reveals itself to be a translucent Kobold in a tunic, wielding a battered Pistol.

Is Tarka too late to introduce herself? Tarka is of the Thunderscales Tribe! Find pistol in annual triceratops freedom raid prank, in the Thunderscales Warrens, of Mediogalti Island! Me gunslinger!

Hey, I have a boon to play my 1st character as a Kobold, and have been wondering something odd, for the sake of PFS - What happens if you take the “Mixed Scales” feat from “Kobolds of Golarian”, as a Green Kobold, and used it to become a Black Kobold? It’s worth noting that my Kobold PC does not have “Draconic Aspect”, nor the “Dragon-Scaled” racial feature, yet. And as such, does not have Acid resistance 05 OR a +1 to Natural Armor. Instead, she has the “Prehensile Tail” racial feature.

Before anyone says it, I’m specifically asking for Pathfinder Society 1e. Not for home campaigns, where a solution can be homebrewed. Also, even if I don’t get natural armor, that is fine; I’m taking The feat to add Black-Scaled Kobold traits to her.

I may be missing something, but it seems like the 1e special is missing certain subtiers? Is that due to a lack of GMs, or what?

We specifically selected this special as it allows play from 1-20 and there's been a lot of requests and inquiries for high-level play opportunities among our 1e players. There weren't very many GM volunteers however, so the decision was made to primarily prioritize offering high-tier tables.

Khouri P. wrote:

If I have a character that is a level not listed in the subtier options, should I just add them to the waitlist? Or no?

Thank you

Please go ahead and add them to the waitlist for the time being. At this point I can't promise that we'll be able to offer any other low or mid-tier tables besides our 3-4 table but if there's enough interest then we'll certainly see what we can do to accommodate as many people as we can.

I hope you’ll reconsider! If there’s no one to GM at Tiers 01-03, and if there’s time to open up the special for such levels, I would love to volunteer my time, for it!

Hmm...remind me which that is?

This character has gotten as far as The Drowned Level.

Ooh! Does this mean that the Emerald aspire is a multi-story dungeon? I didn’t even know such a thing existed, in Pathfinder! That sounds fun!

Looking to play across Season 05 of PFS, with my Level 01 Kobold Gunslinger PC (“Bushwhacker”, “Pistolero”, & “Maverick” archetypes). I have played the first encounter of “The Confirmation, and thus got credited for it, but haven’t actually played further. Plus, it was for another character of mine.

Before anyone asks, YES I have a boon, and YES, she’s my first PC. It’s a long story, but I traded to get a boon to do so, since I never played my first PC.

It doesn't look like it.

Pathfinder Roleplaying Game: Monster Codex

Kobolds: nothing from this section is legal for play.

Thank you

Hello! First Edition player, here! I was curious - I know that nothing from the Kobold Section of “The Monster Codex” is allowed for non-Kobolds. But are they still legal for Kobolds? Especially “Draconic Magic”. I can’t seem to find an answer to this question. Thank you, anyone who can answer this!

Hey, looking to invest into a “Sapphire Guardian” Boon, for when my first character is able to use the Boon, and get an adorable Sapphire Ooze buddy! Will trade my “GM Boon 2019”, for it! I just really want an Ooze buddy!

I was gifted the 2019 GM Boon, so that I could make my first character in PFS a Kobold. Skip to now, and I never got to using it properly. Might as well look for someone who can put the boon, whether for a Kobold, Ghoran, Ragarou, or Samsaran, to good use.

Traded away, on Discord.

Exactly the kind of question it sounds like. Since Wysps and Elementals are normally only of the Aether, Air, Earth, Fire, and Water Elements, are you unable to use the “Elemental Whispers” and “Elemental Whispers, Greater” Utility Wild Talent, as aVoid of Wood Kineticist? Or do you simply gain a Unique Wysp/Elemental?

Question: Can a Folding Plate be re-flavored to be a Gray Maiden Plate? And for that matter, is the Full Plate Armor able to be altered by special properties? That last one I can see why not, but the first question is the one I’m genuinely curious about.

No worries! Glad to have you.

Go ahead and fill out your character information on the Slides and get an introduction post up in gameplay. I'll be having you teleported into where the group is currently having breakfast.

Sorry, but it doesn’t look like I can join, after all. Things are starting to get hectic, again. I don’t lead a stable lifestyle, so things regularly go off-rails for me, and finding time to commit to things is hard.

Hey, sorry about that. I had a crazy day, yesterday. An expensive Amazon package went missing, so there was a lot of trying to track it going on.
