Hadgar Blacksun's page

Due to RL, discontentment for the game due to being rule-intensive and dwindling interest, I am afraid I will not be able to continue this. Thank you for the game and I wish everyone the best of luck with this module.

To be frank, Hadgar's readied action is intended to block incoming attack/s that will hit (e.g attack/s that did not miss due to being equal to or higher than AC/nat 20) not attacks that fail to penetrate AC.

Hadgar readies a kinetic cover to block that next attack that will strike an ally.

Yeah but ability doesn't work that way because cover has to be supported by the ground. Otherwise, Hadgar can cover someone with force screen like that all day.

Missed that. My bad. Not sure if his kinetic cover triggered or not. It only block a facing.

Did Hadgar not take 20?

"Does a spider play dead or is something else all together? Regardless, let us tread with caution."

Hadgar waits to see what his companion does, readying to shield them with his kinetic cover if anyone of them got attacked.

Anything else other than the spider leg twitching? He is using the mirror to look at the room from all angle not just the what is in front of him from his current square.

Hadgar is taking 20 btw. After he looks around, he will try and ready kinetic cover to shield whoever is taking the lead.

Wrong thread, my friend.

I guess that make sense. Going back to the usual take 20 then unless I specify that I am going to roll for him. However, if we are outside of combat such as in a room that has already identified as safe, expect re-rolls/retries after his results are shown on the times I considered rolling a skill checks that allow retries for Hadgar.

"Point proven minus the part where they survive."

A natural born warrior, Hadgar remains unfazed to the messy scene. Instead, he uses his mirror to peek at every corner without crossing the threshold of the narrow corridor.

He will take 10 on perception for a total of 17. If he sees nothing, he will roll until he get a high roll.

Perception check: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26
Perception check: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11
Perception check: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14
Perception check: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 23

Hadgar was really doing the former rather than the latter and will be doing the former every time he step into a new room or maybe roll. I was confused by the absurd amount of time generated by the taking 20 on the skill. It should not take no more than what you stated after your response to my initial post that started it all. Glad it got clarified.

Hadgar takes out a mirror and spies the narrow passageway from every angle including the ceiling.

"It is indeed small. But it is barely enough to qualify for a storage room."

Hadgar continues to watch over the safety of the ratfolk, ready to throw up a shield to block any incoming attack aim on his figure.

If that's how you rule it, for future perception checks, Hadgar will be taking 10 instead and if he did not detect anything, will roll until he gets a higher result. By that logic, he can make two every 6 seconds since each perception check is a move action.

"Trap. Just not where you are looking at."

Hadgar smiles as he points to the hidden level. Then, he walks over to Sana and deposits a obscuring mist scroll into her hand.

"In the event we are about to be bombard by arrows." Tallying a scroll from his inventory.

After that, he watches whoever moves to dismantle the trap, readying a kinetic cover to protect the disabler from an attack if it happens.

"Nonsense. I know a trap when I see one. It is likely the memento of a poor soul who fled or devoured by the horrors in this floor. We've seen undead on our way in so this..."

He points to the dropped used torch.

"may be a natural reaction. Or maybe he survived and stowed away in one of the many rooms here. The door is slightly ajar so we at least know that someone was here."

For the time being, the half-orc poke and prod at the room, testing it with his telekinesis to see if there are reaction by moving the a little of the green patches that is the source of the illumination and lifting the torch. He also pay attention to detail. (Perception (Take 20) - 27)

Btw, GM. If we are not in combat or distracting situation, Hadgar will be taking 20 on his perception check at all times whenever he moves to a new room.

Hadgar takes out his sack and moves to open the eastern side by turning the knob and pushing it aside with his telekinesis. In the event that it is open, he will block the entrance with kinetic cover.

Don't know who is done or not done. Just a warning, I will be moving us forward later today.

@Gimble What I meant is whether we can buy the current items in the future past this point. Or is this the only time we can purchase them?

@Sana Maybe a few scrolls of remove fear. We'll probably need them for our frontlines in case the enemy scare them away to get to the back row.

@Gimble Can we buy items from our chronicle sheets any time?

@Gimble My bad. Anyways, Hadgar should be mostly done and leveled up. Don't mind the if his HP goes past max. The excess HP are temporary hit points from one of his class feature.

@Gimble That is disappointing. So we have 16 chances to grab em all or is it 20?

@Trutzburg As I implied in my previous post, for survivability. Emergency cash to pull out something to help us survive if we wasted all our gold for upgrades. Although only effective low-level. It becomes moot if we are high level and manage our money correctly.

@Trutzburg Vanity or emergency cash in case we need them? And day job roll is restricted to the selected three (trained craft, perform or profession) until we accumulate pp to buy a vanity that allow us to use our desire skill to earn our bucks.

@Gimble For land purchases, are we restricted to one per "session" or are they limited to the amount of pp we have?

It feels like the benefits that lands give are not worth it if we keep investing pp into new ones except the one that give wealth.

Ditto. Hadgar would like a land.

"Not so goblin-infested now that we swept the ruins of goblin taint. Their bugbear leader and robotic invention were the only ones that pose a threat to our entire group. Others not so much."

Hadgar reveals himself behind the Antikas and Shard, greeting the venture captain with a nod as he enters the lodge after both of them.

"Other than that, there were not much sights than the winding stairs that spiral upwards and downwards of a spire that was shaped like its outer shell and the mysteries that await us in the lower levels. I can vouch for my fellow pathfinders that there is more to the ruins than meets the eyes. After all, we did encounter undead on our way down. But, we did not gleam much as we ceased further explorations and decided that was a good time to report back to you our findings."

A little. No, that's not what I meant. I thought the thread was going pretty slow (e.g every 2 days between posts) but the posting has been pretty consistent so far since we post each day. I guess me being primary mover sped that up a little. But frankly, I envied the other table's speed. It was phenomenal. I wanted to speed this up because I felt that we were lagging behind.

Taking back what I said about not continuing. I misjudged the pace. I am staying for this game.

Hadgar moves in again only to see the bleeding, unconscious nagaji on the floor. Roaring, Hadgar lobs a shard at smug bugbear with his telekinesis to try to wipe the smile off his face.

Attack: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 1 = 20
Damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

As for continuing after we finish this level, unlikely. This game is going too slow for me.

No Day Job.

"Hey Shard, mind stepping to your left after you take a bite of that brute? Some of us wants a piece of him."

He waits until Shard finishes his share of attacks and moving to the side before firing another shard at the bugbear and moving back down the stairs.

Telekinetic Blast on Bugbear: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (16) + 1 = 17
Damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

Delay until after Shard. If he 5 ft step, Hadgar's action will trigger.

GM pretty much sums up what I was going to post but have been unable to due to time. In addition, while in his staggered/disabled state, it doesn't prevent Hadgar from taking 5 ft step and attack even if his condition only permits him standard or move action.

Btw, if Qildar move through Hadgar and to any square adjacent to him, he would not provoke.

Bloodied, Hadgar drags himself 5 ft step diagonally and smiles at the cleric as she approaches in front of him to heal him. With great difficulty, the half-orc shifts his head toward his left towards his allies who are still on the stairs.

"Cover me."

With the last remnant of his strength, he flings another shard at Grulk with his telekinesis.

Telekinetic Blast: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 1 = 13
Telekinetic Damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

Oh, it was you. I thought it was the player playing Trutzburg. I think Trutzburg would not get flank bonus since the bugbear backed up against the wall (original GM's position). And since Sana do not want to provoke AoO as she heals Hadgar, I re-position both Sana and Trutzburg to an ideal position where both neither provoke AoO and can accomplish what they set out to do.

Hadgar pushes past Qildar and flies into the room and before the creature can react, launches a shard at the creature as a preemptive attack.

Telekinetic Blast at Bugbear: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20
Damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

Assume in the future that the objects that he flings at his enemies comes from his sack unless stated otherwise. I am tired of elucidating where it comes from by adding the 'from the sack' clause on every post I make.

Same.

"Trutzburg, do you mind opening the door? Or let Qildar do it?"

Hadgar taps his feet in frustration.

Hadgar keeps trying to open the door with his power.

Hadgar will be at the back.

Hadgar, behind the fighters, opens the door by using telekinesis to shove it open.

Hadgar's disappointed expression is replaced by vigor and he follows the nagaji warrior up the stairs.

"Agree. We can finish this later."

Does no one have knowledge (arcana)?

Hadgar raises the parchment and wand.

"Anyone care to identify these before we descend the stairs?"

Hadgar do not have the appropriate skill to ID these items.

Ya

GM?

Hadgar searches the room for any items of interest or useful equipment that could help the group in battle with the same patience his eyes skimmed over the room. Perception (Take 20) - 26 Once he inventory the room, Hadgar nods for Trutzburg to open the central door.

Going to post multiple times to move the thread a bit since this is getting slow.

K. Did Hadgar see anything in the Southern Room?

Hadgar takes his time to survey the southern room.

Perception (Take 20) - 26

Any loot from the blue goblin or is his equipment unrecoverable?

Hadgar squeezes into the passage and crawls through narrow way to the north east tower to recover the loot of blue goblin that the group missed when the ceiling trap triggered and barred the section. That finished, he crawls back to the room before automaton's room and opens it, moving back the same distance as he did from the eastern door.

Same strategy as the east door when he opens the south door. Open and moves back 15 ft from it. Position on map when he does so is updated on the map.

Hadgar tries to open the east door. If opened, he will steps back some distance.

He will step back about 15 ft from the door after it is opened which is updated in the map. Are there any loot from the goblins that we stumbled across?

Hadgar facepalms as this is the door he sealed with furniture from the other side. After checking the goblin corpse, coup the grace the unconscious goblin and check his body too, the telekineticist ventures through the long way to the other side of the door with someone, removes the furniture and opens the door.

Hadgar moves into the room. Standing on one benches to get a better aim, the half-orc levitates a shard from his sack and fires it at the goblin.

Telekinetic blast on goblin: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24
Damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9
