Hi MisterLurch! Hadassa withdwals. Got accepted to Iron Gods and don't wish to overcommit. Wanna keep all you lovely people as friends, after all!
Search Posts
I would like to submit Hadassa, the dervish dancer. Would it be okay to add me to your list Alexander?
Awe, you guys are WAY to kind! *jotting notes* there...You are all on my list of "awesome peeps". I actually feel kinda bad:( I would love to play, but everyone here deserves in. Let the Players hearts guide them, lol! No hard feelings either way.
I have two options for you guys: option 1, Haleen:
Before all this genie business began you remember Haleen slowly going mad, and finally disappearing. It is no wonder now that she doesn't remember Hajar or Khayal. And trying to convince her of her past would almost certainly crack her fragile mind! Still, since you have convinced her to accompany you from here on out, perhaps there is time to nurture her back to sanity? Only time can tell... (CN witch 3/cleric 1 [madness domain]) option 2, Paige Nightsong:
Early in the adventure you guys rescued a water-lady named Paige Nightsong from terrible treatment at the hands of a buncha gnolls and a rock-monster who claimed to be Torag. Remember? Well, this gal just happens to be in need of rescue once again (from a horrific danger as only the mind of GM Pace could predict!) And should she thus be saved by you a second time, her honor would leave her no choice but to accompany you on your travels! (NG Druid 4 [water domain]) Look forward to your verdict, LoF players!
I would be interested in coming back as a player, GM_Pace! I got crushed at work a few months back and had to step away:( I've been following the game since I left...Let me get a character up tonight. I'll try to think of something that fits best with the party.
With new GM's permission...not hijacking, just thanking for the part I played: Wow I finally check in on Paizo and you guys are rolling! I am so glad you found a GM and got this game back on it's feet. I am sorry for having to bow out as I was sent to Japan to save our fundamentally FAILING factory from failing due to failure to think with their brains. Everyone get's +1 to their awesomeness in Real Life for 24 hours!! Love, Hadassah!
Well, I thought after I finished this one project that I would be able to pick things up again...but today after submitting it I have been asked to do THE NEXT FIVE STEPS of the project alone. I'm sorry guys, game's over with me as GM. I had fun for 2000 posts. I hope you all find your way into awesome pbp games.
A soft air blows up in Yazi's face. The well is now much deeper than it was when Khayal threw the rock in. Those stepping in to the crypt are impressed by the number of bone skeletons. These are the centuries of holy dead of the order of this church. DC25 know religion:
Halruun's accursed bones that you left up in town belong to this order Before he runs back Khayal is able to read the inscription on the urn: the ashes of the first cleric of Kelmarane’s church of Sarenrae
The website is no longer showing me the little "(49 new)x" tag next to the gameplay thread! Anyone know how to get this back? Somehow I must have accidently clicked the little "x"? stupid stupid stupid
MAP UPDATED
The stone door slides up revealing a passage. Perc DC20:
You think you hear a faint grinding of stone also in the well D2: The walls of this large, rough-hewn chamber contain several
As Hajar hits the gong there is a melodious *bwaaaasshhhhh* There is a moment of silence. Then...
Hajar finds a tiny bronze "diaphragm" set into the stone above the door. Pointing it out , Bartan makes a determination.
Disable Device DC21: The specific tone of the gong must activate that diaphragm Hajar found which in turn might activate a mechanism. Without more, it is safe to assume the gong will open the door.
Khayal: the rock falls about 30 ft and you hear it chatter on to stone below. Bartan: the gong does not appear to be magical. Hajar: you detect no evil. Inspecting the gong with disable device, know (eng), or dungeoneering would be most appropriate.
MAP UPDATED. From inside the church you find a dark doorway which opens onto a staircase leading down. As you descend... The stairs lead to a rounded stone-walled chamber with a
Yes yes, I apologize once again. The day we got back from vacation every kid in my family came down with the flu. Then I got it. Tomorrow is my first day back from work and promises to be hectic. But I will kick us back off in gameplay thread TONIGHT!
I'm still here of course. Taking the plane home tomorrow.
Kazurkian attacks
Kazurkian: 3/39HP ramaining
-------------------- Monsters ---------------------- Combat ends if you guys hit for 3.
when Kazurkian Dies:
The demon howls and bursts into flames, burns to a charred hulking crisp. Nothing remains of him. On Halruun you find no obvious treasure Nothing further stands in your way of entering the old ruined church.
when you enter the church: Most of the walls of this forlorn
ruin still stand, but the interior walls have been demolished and gutted. Several skeletons litter the structure’s interior, including about a dozen garbed in the red-chitin livery of the Pactmaster Guard. The rest appear to have been clerics of Sarenrae or even common citizens, though the past 20 years have rotted away most of the skin and clothes worn by the corpses. Ash and fire stains the interior walls and ceiling throughout most of the structure, and signs of violent battle are everywhere. Near the center of the church stands a forlorn stairwell that leads down to a heavily barred door. A strange metal plate with a glowing series of irregularly etched lines mars the surface of the door, casting the stairs in a dull red illumination.
Kazurkian -12hp.
-------------------- Monsters; Halruun -29, Kezurkian -0 ----------------------
-------------------- Monsters; Halruun -29, Kezurkian -0 ----------------------
This little stat block calls him a Male advanced elite huecuva (Tome of Horrors Revised 238). He's CE. Ane he's Medium. And he's undead.
Yazi and Bartan piece together the resistances you are all facing:
Spoiler:
Halruun +2 turn resistance; DR 5/magic and silver; Kezurkian
-------------------- Monsters; Halruun -15, Kezurkian -0 ----------------------
hey folks! Way back in recruitment I warned that I was going on vacation July 4th for a while. I will be going from the 2nd to the 18th. I intend to post once per day, but we are going into the mountains at some point and I may not have internet. So you will need to get your pathfinder fix somewhere else during that time:D I hope we can pick up the momentum again when I get back. Basically I will get us to the Crypt Entrance so we have a good place with a "what's in there" air to pause at... But today and tomorrow you guys can try to kill Halruun, the corrupted lich who used to be the high preist of saranrae before he accidently let the evil take Kelmarane over, haha!
Map updated for clarity. 1sq=5ft. Khayal I'll send it to you in a few hours.
Yes, combat doesn't start until I post "round 1". so potions: drink em if ya got em, hehe
You follow Hajar on the route to the church when all of a sudden from around the next corner you hear a massive explosion. A pillar of fire shoots up from the earth into the sky. When the roaring fire dissapears there is an eirie silence. Well, silence accept for the heavy breathing you hear from around the corner...
init:
RETRO FOR YAZI: You found 35gp and an OIL OF SPEED on the goons outside. Nothing else had much value. Loot log updated.
You arrive in Kelmarane at twilight. A few hours ago you hid in the scrub brush as the army of Kardswaan, 450 gnolls in all, marched past on the road toward waterfall. You hope the Nixie and Rock man have a few tricks up their sleeves! Now you stand on the northeast corner of the town, near the brook that waters this place. It's a small stream, no more than 15 ft wide. Much too small to water so many Gnolls. This must be what the aqueduct was for. MAP UPDATED. There is no sign of life and the streets appear quiet. Most of the town is ruined. But the Church, Ballte Market, Guild Hall and a few other buildings are still in tact. The first stars of night appear.
guys i'm not slackin'. I'm getting maps and encounters ready:) Should be able to kick things off in a few hours...
pacific standard time. I post 7am-4pm, then again once or twice at 9pm:)
Bartan inspects his new Harrow Deck: It is a full deck in a wooden box. Each card instead of being made of paper is made of very thinly sliced cherry wood. The images are hand painted in vibrant colors with gold trim. They are MWK. Just as he is about to put them back in the box a slip of paper falls out from between them. On the paper is a message: The owner of this deck is hereby inducted into the Grand Varisian Harrower's Guild. You are entitled to entry into the most exclusive Guild events, and invited to perform in The Annual Harvest Harrowing. //signed// Lady Ambrosia Vashenko, Korvosa 4432 GE.
I'll post about the Harrow deck in game.
Average character wealth for lvl3 is 3000. We have about 22000gp usable loot and 7 players, so you are probably fine. This seemed like a nice place for a hoard, storywise and none of those items will imbalance encounters. Of course, this is assuming you guys completely loot the poor girl and leave her poor and alone with the rock monster.
Helping eachother, Bartan and Dhavyn identify every item (accept the crown) The full hoard looks like this: -A beautiful pearl Pearl of Power level 1 (1000gp)
as soon as someone touches the brooch: You experience a vision: you are back in the crypt in front of the little saint, bathed in golden light. You hear her sweet voice. Thank you, friends. sarenrae sees fit that i give you a gift... You notice the brooch that was around her neck is gone. When the vision ends you look at the brooch in your hand, recognizing it.
Anjali finds all kinds of interesting potential additives in the cave... 1. cyan colored mushrooms whose under-hoods glow like blacklights. She knows these will provide a sort of scent to concoctions. 2. ruffly orange lichen with velvety skin. She knows these will provide a sort of scent to concoctions. 3. ice-like stalactite crystals which form wherever the rock creature steps. She knows these will provide a sort of scent to concoctions.
The crystals move in terrible synchronization, boxing the fight in. MAP UPDATED.
hahaha, i don't know why but that "arrow point to self" made me laugh hard.
Yup you guys don't hear it. But spoilerizing gets old and robs RL players of the story. Got to find a free minute to coordinate this guys round 1 actions *huff huff*
You guys weave interesting encounters. Very fun.
Dhavyn and Bartan recognize the creature as some kind of earth elemental, but cannot tell it's type.
Khayal, what are you doing? Don't you realize it's a...
...oh, never mind.
water restored spells to. Nixie's gift to you. I didn't see a problem buying smaller lots of magic ammunition. Seems like it's commonly done. Accept for PFS. But PFS is boring.
Vardishal has until now been somewhat standoffish. But he answers: Paladin, I do not know. It's hard for me to understand. All I can think is that the influence of this thing, Xulthos was it?, is more powerful than we realize. For my Brother Kardswaan would not easily be swayed. Perhaps it is not he, as they claim? The calm water does feel good. And as you pass through the waterfall each of you feels the Nixie's voice in your head. feel the flow of the remaining power I have over these waters!
MAP UPDATED.
And now you are level 3! But no auto HP and spell restoration just yet...
