Hirabashi Yuto's page

As the last of the hoarfrost spirits fell, Yuto lets out a sigh of relief, lowering his weapon "Tha-thank you, Suishen, for your protection against the cold. Yo-your help was invaluable in this fight" he then nodded towards Helgarval "And th-thank you, Helgarval, for your protection as well"

He quickly scans the group "Is everyone okay?" concern is evident in his voice.

Once reassured that everyone is in a stable condition, Yuto focuses on the wrecked caravan "We need to find out what happened to that caravan. There could be survivors or important information. Let's move quickly but stay alert"

Taking the lead, he approaches the wrecked caravan.
Perception: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (18) + 11 = 29

HP 38/67

Take care of yourself GM Aganhei! Have a good rest.

Yuto grits his teeth as one of the spirits claws through his arm's skin "O-oh, no! W-we are in trouble he-here."
Suishen-CE (2-handed): 1d20 + 14 - 2 ⇒ (13) + 14 - 2 = 25

Slashing damage+flaming: 1d8 + 9 + 1d6 ⇒ (6) + 9 + (5) = 20

His attacks are more careful this time, Suishen's fire brights as menacing as ever.

Yuto shivers under the coldness of the creatures attacks, but he cannot stand on the back while his friends are bravely fighting the spirits "Suishen, we need your protection from the coldness of the spirits!"

Discarding the bow, he rushes forward to the only enemy he can reach, drawing Suishen, that bursts into flames, to slice through the red spirit.
Suishen-CE (2-handed): 1d20 + 14 - 2 ⇒ (15) + 14 - 2 = 27
Slashing damage+flaming: 1d8 + 9 + 1d6 ⇒ (2) + 9 + (6) = 17

Finally found some time to look at possible purchases.

@Andochtuir Do you think you have room to craft some deliquescent gloves for Yuto?

Other than that he is getting that sash of the war champion previously discussed, enchanting his shield to +1, and buying a full-plate +1.

Yuto's heart raced as Atsuko's description of the hoarfrost spirits sank in. The chill of fear gripped him as he saw the creatures before him, their icy forms seemingly impervious to harm. Despite his best efforts to remain composed, a shiver ran down his spine.

Despite his hands are trembling slightly he summons the little braveness on his heart to keep the composure "T-these creatures... they're resilient" he remarked, his voice trembling slightly as he addresses the situation "B-but we must press on. W-we cannot let them overrun us!"

With a deep breath to steady himself, Yuto shots his bow at the black spirit in front, as he has a clear line of sight.
composite longbow: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (12) + 9 = 21
Piercing damage: 1d8 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9

composite longbow: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16

It is also our first fight in the wilderness also, so let's take it easy on everyone as we start to workout how to deal with this. It looks like we will be in similar situations in the near future :)

If we do not get frozen to death by these spirits that is...

"I-Ice spirits? W-what do you mean with that Ritti San?" Yuto seems very worried by what he hears, but can do little other than wait and see "Where?!"

K. planes (might be an ice elemental?): 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 9 = 16

Yuto nods, and keeps the distance with tension as he observes Ritti go. With an arrow nocked on his bow, he waits patiently for news, but constantly scanning the area for any danger that may happen.

"So-sounds like a plan" Yuto reinforces Ritti's intentions, then moves up with the rest of the group, having a look at Zaiobe as it takes flight.

When the group gets close to its destination, Yuto gets slightly behind of Ritti and readies his bow, in case she needs some backup from the team "P-please, t-take care Ritti San"

As they get closer, the Tian looks around for tracks or any other hints of activity.
Survival: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25
Perception: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (13) + 11 = 24

As the caravan sets off once more, Yuto remains vigilant, his senses alert for any signs of danger on the trail ahead. When Lone-Pillar brings news of a wrecked caravan and potential danger ahead, Yuto's expression turns serious, his hand instinctively moving to the hilt of his blade.

"W-we should proceed with ca-caution" Yuto suggests, his voice steady and composed "Ritti, I-I will go with you. It mi-might be dangerous..."

Yuto readies shield and katana and offers himself to Lone-Pillar for this task.

As they prepare to face the colder terrain ahead, Yuto silently acknowledges the gravity of the journey. He listens intently as Ulf and Uksahkka share their insights and plans, mentally preparing himself for the challenges to come.

When Uksahkka announces her departure to visit her father's people, Yuto offers her a respectful nod "I-I understand your need to honor your family, e-even if it means parting ways with the caravan. S-sorry we were not able to pr-protect you before and ended imprisoned" the young man nods multiple times "U-until we meet again, ma-may the spirits watch over you and guide your path"

Yuto looks towards the snowy hills ahead, his expression thoughtful. He had heard Ulf's warnings about the challenges awaiting them, and he couldn't help but feel a sense of unease mingled with determination. Despite the harsh conditions and the ominous predictions, Yuto remained steadfast in his resolve to see the journey through.

As the caravan settles for the night, Yuto takes a moment to approach Lone-Pillar, offering a respectful nod "I-I appreciate the opportunity to assist with the guard duties, Lone-Pillar San" he says sincerely "Yo-your guidance has been invaluable, and I am gra-grateful for the chance to learn f-from you" Despite the Shoanti's stoic demeanor, Yuto senses a mutual respect forming between them, forged through shared responsibility and the harsh realities of their journey.

As about the coldness, Yuto seems unaffected other than guilt. He gently soothes Suishen on his belt.

With an quick nod, Yuto does as Ulf says and tries to stick to the road. Even more, he moves through the line of carts, passing down the message, and ensuring to call out anyone that steps out of the road for any reason.

If it is part of the AP setting, let the horror come to us!

I used once the horror rules but I was not very successful. They are either too crippling or non consequential depending on party composition. And they did not help bring the sense of horror over the group. It is very hard in a game that is designed for the players to be heroes and succeed against insurmountable odds to feel horror.

I have had more success by tweaking the atmosphere of the room and intonation of voice. But that is not a thing in the boards regretfully :D

@Everyone I would like to, if possible, use the remainder of my gold to craft a Boro Bead in week 2, but I am 452 g short to do this. Is there anyone I could borrow part of this from or do I have permission to sell some consumables less likely to be used, like the scroll of animate dead?

I haven't decided yet what to buy, I can lend the gold to Andochtuir.

Yuto laughs nervously as Ritti grapples him "Y-you are welcome! I-it was only fair a-after all. Specially after you d-decided to join our crazy trip"

---

As the caravan sets up and departs, Yuto gives a last look to Karlsgard "Do you think we will ever see this place again?"

And then starts to walk decidedly raising Suishen to ask the sword "Are you excited on the prospects of returning to Minkai?"

For the first week of travel, Yuto will pass most of the time ensuring Teruko and Ameiko are constantly guarded, by him or other of the well known guards of his own trust. He sometimes spends some time on the head of the caravan with Ulf and Sandru, listening and learning as they go about the land and legends of this place. Always his bow close by for the case it is needed, and Suishen ready at the sheath.

At night, he spends most time with his journal, writing down the things he witnessed through the day, and the things he learned from hearing the others talk.

Amulet of natural armor +1 (4.000 gp)

The amulet costs only 2000 gp! :D

There's another wand I'm eyeing, Predict Weather, which gives a 48 hour forecast. It' a 1st level Bard spell, so 750 for a wand. What do you think? Worth it? Worth it enough to be called a group item and those who can chip in some?

Mmm... not sure, in paper it should be useful. But narratively, it can be problematic. I mean, most of the times it is not going to help us to know the weather, and in some cases it might derail some scripted event.

I lean more towards a second endure elements wand, as we are about to pass a lot of time in the freezing north and we cannot craft wands that I know.

Yuto looks at Shalelu intrigued but does not further comment about her friendships "Sh-should we wait f-for the Spring then?"

The next day, the Tian will take the pieces of equipment and treasure obtained and will approach the market in Karlsgard to try sell all the stuff. Whatever money he manages to obtain, he accurately shares in equal parts among the party. Including with Ritti "You worked hard for this, as all of us. I-It is only fair you get your share as everyone else."

Ok, I have set the spear and the dagger to selling (it is a nice one but if Ritti is not into poisoning is better sold). Same for the ioun stone.

I have consolidated the sell, that's 45.482 gp. So, as Andochtuir advanced, that means 9096,4 gp for each character!

Enjoy! :)

As for claimed items, Yuto is well over the group, just because he has two intelligent items, and those do not have value by the rules. So, I will be just taking whatever no one else needs.

Maybe if we ever find a heavy armor, j~#!

@Atsuko, feel free to pick up all those items, no one else is going to make use of the archery stuff and feel free to pick up any spell trigger item not intended to heal the party.

Most of the stuff not claimed and not sold is just healing stuff and other generally useful stuff that is to share. This should not impact the wealth of any particular character, but feel free to say it is you who is holding them. Anything no one is actively stating to hold, you can assume Yuto is carrying around in the party bags.

I'm not sure if this is an error but the value and sale price are identical (instead of halved) on a few pieces of the ogre-mage's gear.

This is because Large weapons and armors' value is twice the usual value of a Medium one.

This might be a question for Yuto as a loot sheet designer... Is there a way on the Ritti tab to add gear I purchased pre-game so that that it shows on the Statistics tab to accurately reflect my combined 'character wealth'? I don't want to start tweaking the loot sheet and potentially screwing up the functionality.

The way I usually handle this is to set your initial coin in cell J2 of your tab. You can also list the items you started with and buy in the L:M columns to help you track stuff. The gold noted in those will be automatically subtracted from the initial gold and shares to help you know how much coin you have remaining. But you can instead track coin in your profile if you prefer of course! :D

Ok, I have consolidated the treasure list.

We are going to get 7000 gp per character, but there are still some stuff to be identified that can greatly increase that amount:
- Asvig's shortspear
- Snorri's draugr grey sphere of what looks like mother-of-pearl
- Armory magical arrow
- raven's rockery scroll
- Ninjas unidentified magical dagger crafted in the Tian-Min style
- 3x burning shurikens (Ritti has them 3)
- Necromancer unidentified wand
- Kimandatsu Unidentified wand
- Kimandatsu Unidentified bracers

Yes, take rest, those are sometimes tricky. Time to take care!

As the conversation shifts to the topic of a guide, Yuto listens with interest as Andochtuir mentions Ulf "Y-yes, Ulf and Ukhsahkha have pledged to gui-gude us through the snow" he confirms, a note of optimism in his voice "The-their knowledge of the terrain will be invaluable as we venture into the unknown. O-one of them has made the trip before, h-he even spot a gi-giant"

Yuto's expression grows resolute as he adds, "Li-lisent Sir Andochtuir. His insight into strategic matters is invaluable. With natural military advisors like him a-among us, I am confident that we can na-navigate the complexities of reclaiming the throne. Together, we possess the strength, resilience, and determination needed to face whatever trials await us" He casts a determined gaze around the gathering, his belief in their collective abilities unwavering.

Ameiko stares at Helgarval for a few moments, then shakes her head. "It's hardly a surprise at this point. You've brought back an azata, an angel, and a harpy now." She turns to smile briefly at Atsuko. "No need to be so formal. I'm not anything so royal yet... and we can work on your Minkaian together, if you'd like."

Yuto breaks in a shy laugh thinking on it "W-well, w-we are building a strange trove, aren't we?"

For the rest, he let's the others conduct the conversation, not doing anything to stop Andochtuir to explain the full picture of it. He clenches his foreseeing how tough and daunting the task is "While it is true such an accomplishment i-is beyond our hands, w-we have done new allies at every step. I-if we keep doing this, w-we will be a large lot, and ma-maybe stand a chance against the usurper."

Yuto bows deeply to Ameiko "Thank you for entrusting me with Suishen" he says respectfully "It will be an honor to wield such a revered blade in service to you and the people of Minkai"

Turning to Suishen, Yuto addresses the ancient sword directly "Thank you for accepting me, I am humbled by your dedication to protecting your homeland" he says with sincerity "I vow to wield you with honor and help you protect the heir to the throne"

As Andochtuir praises him and his companions, Yuto feels a rush of warmth and gratitude. He blushes slightly at the unexpected praise, feeling somewhat slow to respond compared to Torra "Th-thank you"

When Sandru speaks, he directs a smile to him "Th-thank you, brother, for accepting Atsuko and Ritti into our midst"

However, Yuto's expression shifts to one of surprise and concern as Ritti reveals her past as a thief. Despite his shock, he quickly recovers and offers her a reassuring smile "Yo-your honesty talks for you, Ritti San" he says earnestly "I-it takes co-courage to admit one's past mistakes. I be-believe in second chances, and I trust that you will well prove y-yourself in this adventure"

@Everyone I wanted to ask, before I go back through everything, is the loot list up to date? If so, have we already calculated how much gold we have to spend on shopping?

I have been adding stuff as we have been finding it. I am pretty confident it is up to date, but there are a few items still unidentified, and some, specially the most recent ones, I still have not searched the market value for them.

I cannot give an approximate value until everything is identified, but dividing evenly, it seems everyone shall expect to get more than 4000 gp.

Sense Motive: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (14) + 10 = 24
Yuto approaches Ameiko with a respectful bow, his expression solemn yet determined. He kneels before her and extends Suishen, the katana, toward her, presenting it with both hands as a symbol of reverence and loyalty. "Ameiko Sama," he begins, his voice steady yet filled with earnestness, "this blade, Suishen, is your heirloom. It has guided us and aided us in our journey, not for its prowess, we could have hardly defeated the guild leader; and it rightfully belongs to you."

Whether Ameiko accepts Suishen or not, Yuto proceeds to recount the events that transpired back at the fortress. He describes the fierce battles with the monks, the daring rescue of the prisoners, and the eventual defeat of Kimandatsu. With a tone of gratitude, he highlights the invaluable contributions of Atsuko and Ritti, emphasizing how their skills and bravery were instrumental in the success of their mission.

"Both Atsuko and Ritti have shown remarkable courage and resourcefulness," Yuto continues, his gaze unwavering as he speaks. "Their assistance was crucial in overcoming the challenges we faced, and I am deeply grateful for their presence."

However, Yuto doesn't shy away from the truth "We find ourselves in a precarious situation," he admits, his tone tinged with urgency. "I-I... du-dumbly revealed your true surname. S-so they know." he gets red looking at both Ritti and Atsuko "Fo-fortunately we defeated Kimandatsu, s-so I hope she was not able to transfer this knowledge"

"A-anyway, we must flee from the Rimerunners Guild, for our safety and theirs. Ameiko Sama, I humbly request your forgiveness... a-and assistance for our new friends. Would it be possible for Atsuko and Ritti to join our caravan? They seek refuge and a chance to forge a new path forward."

Uh! That sucks! Hope you find something soon. Something much better by sure.

Yuto nods understandingly at Ritti's explanation, his demeanor sympathetic "I will ce-certainly speak with Ameiko Sama on your behalf. She's fair-minded, and I'm sure she'll see the value in having you along" he assures her, his tone sincere "Yo-your skills and bravery are evident, and I believe you would be a va-valuable addition to our journey."

As Suishen's words catch the attention of Ulf and the others, Yuto chuckles softly, a hint of amusement in his eyes "Y-yes, this blade is extraordinaire. I-it's name is Suishen" he confirms, patting the katana at his side "I-if she trusts you, I-I trust you myself"

"B-but for now, let us focus on our journey ahead. There are s-some miles yet to reach Kalsgard. L-let's finish the m-meal and continue on our path. We have much ground to cover. Lorsk, he is a m-much better cook, you will see things better with one of his soups o-on your belly." the young Tian gets reinvigorated at the thought of the tasty meal.

Yuto's smile widens as he listens to Atsuko's contribution, appreciating her insight and expertise "I-Indeed, ha-having someone skilled in crafting like you will be a gr-great asset to our caravan" he says warmly to Atsuko.

Then, turning to Ritti, Yuto's expression remains friendly and curious. "Ritti San, a-are you planning to join us on the jo-journey? It seems like you may have so-some reasons to leave Kalsgard as well, and sooner than expected. Your skills and experience could prove invaluable out there."

Just go the route you are more eager to explore Atsuko.

In my opinion, ranged bard is the strongest and more fulfilling bard version there is. I have played one, and GMed a couple, and I can tell it has been always rewarding. The good thing is the versatility, you can go all day shooting, so you always have spells still available when things go south and the team needs an extra trick, and because you are in the back, you do not have to burn resources to protect yourself.

I would recommend to focus on Use Magic Device, so you can make use of all magical items we pick up, because there will be no one else able to use them, and we will certainly need a scroll here and there to circumvent issues.

Yuto listens intently to Ulf's descriptions, his expression shifting from curiosity to concern as the dangers of the journey become clearer. When Ulf mentions his experiences in Tian Xia, Yuto's eyes widen with interest.

"I-I see," Yuto responds, his voice tinged with a mixture of awe and apprehension. "It sounds like quite the adventure... though perhaps not one for the faint of heart. H-have you encountered any... dragons during your travels?" he asks, unable to contain his curiosity about these legendary creatures.

"Giants, ice... Dr-dragons?" Yuto gulps as alarmed as Torra "It-it does not sound ve-very hospitable. Wh-what are erutakis anyway?"

An idea suddenly crosses the Titan's mind "Yo-yos talk like you have gone through before Ulf San, have you been in Tian Xia before? Have you stepped on its fo-forrests? S-seen it's mountains?"

Yuto's eyes light up as Ulf commits to guiding the caravan through the Path of Aganhei "Wi-will you?!" the young man even leaves the dry meat he was chewing aside and stands up to hug the Ulfen "Th-that is great news! I cannot wait to tell Ameiko Sama. Finally Koya will have her long trip adventure of a life!!!"

Still with a smile on his face, he inquiries "Why is it told to be such tough of a trip?"

Yuto is chewing a bit of the dried meat the group collected in the fortress when he is surprised by Ulf's question "Wh-why?" he thinks hard on the question for a time "I-it is what we promised to Uiksahkka. W-we had an agreement. And we have made our part" he explains "Besides, we need a guide" he offers a shy smile to the Ulfen.

Level 7 yay!!!

Yuto offers his own cold weather outfit to Atsuko when he notices the coldness is taking her best "I-I feel Suishen's warmth is strong enough to maintain me. P-please accept these clothes Atsuko. Although Miss Povalli would complain it should be adjusted that sizing t-to your well fit bo-body" the young Tian scratches the back of his head, looking at Atsuko "I-I have some needle and can try to improve it back at the c-caravan."

As the group moves to Karlsgard he states "W-which reminds me... y-you have proven to be strong and knowledgeable. I-if you two are having trouble with the people at the city, ma-maybe you might be interested at traveling with our ca-caravan for a time" then, he looks at Uksahkka and Ulf "Y-you two too. A-all this started be-because we were looking for a guide. I-if you are interested in the job..."

"I-I was re-reasoning we do not know how to he-heal you, nor are we sure w-when the guild reinforcements w-will arrive. W-we know at least a bunch of them were at Kalrsgard, and l-last time we rested a-a few of them arrived" Yuto tries to explain himself, though clearly he is clumsy and not specially conveying "B-but if y-you are c-confident the blindness healing, i-it is a matter of resting and we have no r-reasons to get out of here, t-then let's wait."

Yuto will suggest to close up in one of the rooms upstairs, where the group has a view advantage and ranged combat advantage, plus we can hide while we rest.

Yuto looks around nervously as the group halts in the stairs "I-I know it-it is scary, b-but we do not know h-how to heal you, a-and the Frozen Shadows re-reinforcements can co-come and take us in our weak moment a-at any time"

The Tian looks hesitant, not knowing how to help here "I-I am confident we can manage it if we go slowly, step by step, and roped together as suggested by Torra Sant. Are you sure you can't do it?"
Diplomacy: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (6) + 8 = 14

Yuto carefully assists the group as they navigate through the fortress, mindful of the challenges posed by the blind and deaf members. He ensures they gather what supplies they can from the treasury, including Ulf and Uksahkka's gear, before proceeding higher.

The Tian remains patient and supportive, guiding the blinded members of the group every step of the way. He receives with hope the signs of improvement in Atsuko and the others' vision, smiling wide.

Finally reaching the outside, Yuto joins Ulf and Uksahkka, surveying their surroundings. "In fact... y-yes, we're qu-quite high up" he confirms, his voice calm yet concerned. "B-but we'll find a way do-down safely. Let's stick to-together and take it one s-step at a time."

"Y-yes, I think it might be t-that gear" Yuto gives Ulf and Uksahkka the gear they found before and ensures they have everything they needs.

"W-we need someone able to heal th-their eyes as s-soon as possible. Ma-maybe at the caravan they can help them" with the group ready to move, Yuto takes the lead, guiding them cautiously through the fortress, navigating obstacles and ensuring everyone stays safe, stopping to guide by hand on the difficult parts.

Yuto looks back to Ritti, then looks at Atsuko "C-can you do so-something about it Sir Andochtuir?" the young man looks hopeful at the half-elf who has demonstrated great knowledge of surgery and healing in the past.

Then, he realizes about something "O-Oh! I-I forgot, these are prisoners like you that we found in o-our way down the fortress. Ritti San and Atsuko San" he points to both of them and smiles "W-we could had not made it w-without them."

"Do-do you think you all can walk out?" if Atsuko and the prisoners are fine, Yuto will try to guide them out of the fortress.

Ooops! I did not notice, sorry!

Eastern Holidays here, so things moving a bit out of pace for me, but good :)

Yuto, feeling a mix of relief and gratitude, quickly moves to unlock the shackles binding Uksahkka and the others, using one of the keys he found on Kimandatsu's body. "Th-thank you for hi-hiring us, Uksahkka," he manages to stammer out, his voice betraying a hint of anxiety "We a-are just doing what we c-can to help while w-we where l-looking for my liege's sword"

Once everyone is freed, Yuto urges them to move quickly, his words slightly rushed and stammering in his anxiety "We... we should g-get out of here, find our way ba-back to the ca-caravan. It's not safe here. Let's hurry."

As the last frog creature collapses, Yuto descends to the ground, and kneels abated by the tension of the recent combat. He leans over Suishen his forefront touching the pommel "Th-thank you. How to thank-you enough for your protection?"

Uksakka's call and then Atsuko and Ritti's conversation takes the young man out of his state. He looks around, and nods seeing Atsuko is being counseled by Ritti, he stands up and rubs his own eyes, still in pain by the sudden light flashes, while he approaches Uksakka "H-hello friend. A-are you ok? I-I am sorry it took so long for us to come to free you. It was... difficult to find out w-where were you ta-taken and then to ma-make our way through all the guild defenses"

He unshackles the prisoners, or tries to, looking for keys on Kimandatsu if needed. Then offers them water and food.

Yuto lends all his strength to Suishen for the blade to strike down Kimandatsu, the young man is impressed as the ogre magi finally falls and the katana imparts its powers on him.

"Kimandatsu has fallen!" he shouts for the ones who were not able to witness it, but it also carries some hint of surprise, as the flames cauterize the wounds and those do not regenerate further.

Without more time for hesitation, the Tian turns around, and walks up in the air over Ritti's head to strike at the blindheim by the door.

Yuto looks at the oni, more scared than before, once it survives not only his strike but also Andochtuir's one "Oh, no, i-it is still up, wh-what are we going to do?!"

Gulping soundly, he raises Suishen and his shield, ready for what might well be his last seconds of life "Perhaps I should have gone the Shogun defense, oh dear, burn my bones!"

Surprised by the sheer force of Kimandatsu's assault, Yuto finds himself still standing, albeit barely. As he steadies himself, a surge of determination courses through him, drawing upon the wisdom gleaned from his studies. With a fierce resolve, he channels all his remaining strength into a devastating counterattack against the ogre magi, determined to turn the tide of battle in their favor "I cannot hold her longer, help me bring her down!"
