Sounds great. I'll be bringing a L4 female wayang Swashbucker/Investigator named Claire Lee-O'Blivyus. She comes from a long line of detectives, constables, and magistrates in the Lee-O'Blivyus family. Her aunt, Portia Lee-O'Blivyus, had found her an internship which ended terribly. Claire accidentally killed the constable, Patty O'Furniture, in a bungled investigation. Claire was forced to resign her internship, and her dreams of local government service died as swiftly as her constable. She turned her focus to the Pathfinder Society as a chance for redemption. See you shortly! Ben
Jaegar opens the secret door and reveals as much as he can to his friends. "Molos, what can you determine about that mirror?" After quickly sketching the diagram of the room and the map itself, he turns to Tory saying, "I think your finesse will be perfect for the map. I will do my best to assist you, and I think Gilfroy and Gima might be able to assist you as well."
Jaegar keeps his bane going, and uses a swift action to activate his judgment. Point Blank Shot, Coordinated Shot, Judgement, Bane, Rapid Shot, Deadly Aim Point Blank Shot, Bane, Deadly Aim If the first shot drops Chau, Jaegar will take a 5' diagonal step to shoot the other gnoll.

Jaegar is familiar with some of the areas, but not necessarily the specifics of the map. Jaegar sees the two gnolls swinging at his friend, and takes quick aim. He activates his Bane ability and fires at the more dangerous looking gnoll. Jaegar has precise shot, and can ignore Vrald for soft cover with his bow.

Jaegar can provide the background on the paintings and the Desimire brothers, if required. Jaegar casts Sift to check the door from a distance. This uses the benefit of his Lucky Number spell. He then re-casts Lucky Number from his wand.
He looks to the Halfling and says, "Gima, perhaps you can open this door if it is locked?" If Gima cannot open the door Jaegar will use his scroll of Knock. Although, it seems a locked door would be unlikely if there is a Djinni blocking the path.
"Let's sprint to her quarters. Korshad, would you be so kind as to describe the route? We will try to return as swiftly as possible should you face trouble." Jaegar moves to the room in the center of the entry room and presses his Gloves of Reconnaissance to the wall and uses them to peer around the room.
"Well, let's make our way through. I think Vrald and Tori are the strongest, do you want to drag the gnolls into the slave pens and close the doors?" Jaegar asks as though Vershod is a part of the group. [/b]"I assume you know the password?"[/b]
He looks to the other slaves and says, "I certainly am not your master. You have an interesting set of options. You can stay here and act as lookout while we retrieve this item. You can some with us. You can flee. I would recommend one of the first two, as we can provide some protection from the gnolls. However, I will not stop you if you wish to take your chances in the desert!"
"Korshad, we are in search of a mirror the lady may have used as a scrying focus. If you could tell us where to look, that will significantly expedite our escape. We want to get you, and all the slaves, to safety as swiftly as possible." Jaegar speaks hastily to the cleric. "I beseech you aid us, and we will do our best to see you back to the Dawnflower."
Jaegar spends his entire round attempting to convince Korshad to help direct them to the next part of their quest. He is confident Vrald and Tori will make very short work of the remaining gnoll. He will also keep an ear out for reinforcements to the battle.
Jaegar takes a 5' step toward the gnoll guards and fires two arrows. If the portcullis has still not been raised next round, his intent is to 5' again to negate his miss chance.

Jaegar casts a few spells as preparation for the coming fracas. He puts up Defending Bone, uses a charge from his wand of Lucky Number, and casts Divine Favor. If, at any time in the next 24 hours Jaegar rolls his luck number, he can choose to add 2 or reroll. He turns to his friends and implores, "Please do not hurt Korshad, I feel The Inherator may have need of him." "Korshad, this life is not for you. Come with us, and we will either return you to The Dawnflower, or set you on any new path you desire." Jaegar attempts to compel him to leave.
Jaegar looks now to Vrald. "Time is up. Let's do this thing!" Jaegar activates his judgment, and begins to fire arrows at the mutant Hyena.

Jaegar will trot toward Gima without nocking an arrow, and call back over his shoulder, "Hey slaves! Do any of you know where you're going?" He looks to take the Halfling under his arm, placing his hand on her back for comfort. He whispers to her paternally, "If you need food or drink, we will help you. This is not the time or place to flee."
- Are there tracks or a trail we're following? - Have the gnolls discussed it? - Have we heard rumors of the specific location? - Are there any specific natural features that we could navigate?
Jaegar will actively chase Gima. He wants to avoid directly confronting the gnolls as a slaver. If the gnolls are indeed divination focuses for the slave master, and Jaegar and Vrald are seen fighting against them the ruse is over. If the slaves overtake the gnolls, but are subdued by Jaegar and Vrald, the ruse can continue. If the gnolls are not slain, but are left behind, then Jaegar and Vrald are exposed but the slaves may not be. Furthermore, Jaegar is not 100% sure where we are going. That leaves us underequipped and lost in the desert with a handful of slaves and potentially 2 dead gnolls. While the gnolls may be slavers, they are essential to helping us infiltrate the slave network. Jaegar takes a single move toward Gima and fires an arrow at the Hyena.
He calls out as he moves: "Where are you going, little lady? You will be very alone and very thirsty, very soon!"
Jaegar will talk to the other slaves when the gnolls are eating, napping, or otherwise occupied. The goal of the conversation is to assess any abilities they may have, and how much of a liability they would be in a fight. If Jaegar thinks they will turn on him or the other slaves, he would not be likely to cut them loose. However, if they can be allies he would encourage Gilfroy to "work his magic" on the fellow slaves. Jaegar will engage the Kellid hunter in Hellit, as an attempt to both mask his conversation from the gnolls while giving Espanas a chance to use his native tongue. Jaegar will also attune his Kinbonded Bow to Vrald at the beginning of the trip. This will prevent Vrald from providing any soft cover to Jaegar's targets in a fight. The bow remains attuned until Jaegar picks a different ally. At the mistreatment of any of the Pathfinders, Jaegar would confront Hargur and Vangru. "Each of those slaves are worth more than the two of you combined. Every time you take a swipe at one of them, my friend here gets a free swipe at you. Are we clear?"
Jaegar has no marks of office, no wayfinder, no holy symbols apparent for his role as slaver. Most notably, he wears a mask of stony demeanor, hiding his intent and increasing the menace with which he operates. He will act as a bounty hunter, which is not a disguise at all. He does not hide his gear, but will use his Sleeves of Many Garments to adorn many layered sailing garb of light white muslin over his armor and undergarments. This should provide function, an appropriate look, and a certain nonchalance about the fact that he is wearing light mithril armor under his clothing. He will state his role is protector of these very valuable individuals, also not a lie. Jaegar will reiterate that his mission is to escort the slaves all the way to their final destination, which is true. If asked, he will directly address the value of the individuals and the special circumstances of their capture.
Jaegar will attempt to determine what he can about the harbor, the gnolls, and the pens while personifying a bounty hunter.
Should any other slavers seem too interested in his chattle, he will use Vrald as an enforcer and attempt to intimidate them from asking any questions.
Jaegar looks to Tori and Vrald, offering an option. "I could stow your extra weapons and armor with me, so when we decide to break out you'll be more fully equipped. I have a quiver and a backpack that should be able to hold your weapons and backpack. Assuming I can take those items as a slaver, we can rapidly equip you all prior to obtaining our chest." He glances around the room, "Does that seem reasonable?"
Jaegar checks the bodies of the captain and the slave master. He wants to check for information, instructions, or any other valuable evidence for the Ambassador or the Society. He'll also liberate any valuable coins or magic items, casting Detect Magic. Jaegar offers Lady Anilah a swig from his wineskin. He can burn a charge from his wand of Cure Light Wounds if she looks injured. "I suggest we make haste for the Grand Lodge. I'm not certain a flood of escaping slaves will make the docks a safe place. We should press out with the throng to avoid retaliation!" Jaegar searches the room quickly for any notebooks, journals, or other valuables.
He tosses the keys to Gudrun and says, "Let's sweep the other sealed rooms swiftly, and get out with the rest of the escaping slaves."
Yeah, we're in book 5 of Rise of the Runelords, and finished 6 levels of the Emerald Spire. We started Rise in September, but the lowest chronicle is for L3-4, so Jaegar hasn't been able to utilize it. We just did 4 sessions of Emerald Spire to acclimate a new player, so now I have a chronicle that applies to a L1-2. I have chronicles with nowhere to put them, so I have some that apply to levels 1-2, 2-3, 3-4, and 4-5. I don't think I have a level 6 or 7 at the moment, so I'll go straight from here to there. We've been playing this scenario since 4 February... If I go to L6, does that mess with the party composition too much? I'm not sure Gudrun or Gilfroy are ready for 3-7 scenarios...
I think if you're tanking, and your role in the party is to keep the other guys from getting squashed, I would recommend Combat Reflexes. Also, I would recommend a wand of enlarge person. I just started the Emerald Spire Super Dungeon with a barbarian, and I took Combat Reflexes as a first level feat. With enlarge person the ability to threaten more squares is a fantastic combination, and only costs one feat and a wand. My logic was this: The most valuable thing a Barbarian can do is attack. The best way to get more attacks at lower level is with Combat Reflexes. +2 or +4 damage here and there is already insignificant, at 5th level while enlarged he does 3d6+21 damage. More attacks are way more useful! I ended a combat with a fleeing boss, as he made the acrobatics to withdraw from my first threatened square, but not the second. The AoO may not come up every combat, but it does probably 1/2 to 1/3 of the time, and then my barbarian is zoning out threats for the rest of the party.

Ok one of the big things that gets under my skin in the mmo world is this, traveling. I used to play Uo and they had a way to travel to any location if you could teleport to it using runes or book marks. Then I played FF11 for some months and It took forever to get anywhere. I have played wow for alittle and travel is kinda in the middle, air ships or walk, Still takes a bit to get to places. So my big question is this. How is travel gonna plan out? Will it take forever to get anywhere? We all know it takes days to travel (for lower level adventures) In PFRPG, So how long will it take in PF:O?
HATE to do this but, Please could you cancel my Modules and Tales subscriptions? Thanks.
I am going to be joining a game where I am a gnome Summoner starting at lv one. I had to roll for stats and I placed them in the following locations. STR: 10 (-2)= -8
Was that good? For my Feat I chose Improved Initiative.
I am In search of a game. I have reliable transportation. Weekly to bi-weekly works for me. I think I will attend total con, But I am looking for a some what steady game. right now Wednesdays are no good from 2-6 Sundays are no good between 10-4, and Fridays between 4-9 are no good as well. Please let me know if any games are open. If so please e-mail me at MRblahface (AT) gmail (DOT) com Thanks! -MRblahface.
I forget I just saw it too, but who put out a book on air ships? Thanks
Ok I just got the Bestiary 2, err, In PDF form. Book forum soon. I am sure this has been talked about, But what I am talking about Is the Non-Hit dice races, I.E. Tiefling, Aasmar, Goblin, Kobold, Damphir, Sylph, So on and so on you get the idea. I am not talking about a full 300+ book like the RPG line, but kinda In the same light as the elf's of Golarion. Maybe on the Pathfinder Campaign Setting or the Pathfinder Player Companion, Maybe each page or two of the book details one of the races in detail, and includes all of the "(insert race here) as characters" (From as of now) Both Bestiary's also maybe some new playable races. Would this be some what remotely possible? The reason I ask is I like to play Different then human characters. I mean Humans are cool because we are all humans but in general Its fun to play a giant talking bird. I do know there are some other 3rd party books like this but this is a way to give a Damphir or Sylph or a "whatever" To give it fluff and more chance for players something other then the "7" core races. What do you all think?
We started a 2nd lv custom game. I was a Human Battle Oracle. The two other players are a Gnome Summoner who is a toy maker and loves bears. Hence his giant Teddy-Bear Eidolons who he rides, and a Human Monk who loves weapons and has so many we had to give her a sheet of notebook paper to fit them all. This is a custom game and where every thing is exceptionable except barbarians and spontaneous casters are rare. Any who we were tasked to go and kill this Minotaur and his gang of goblins and Kobolds. It was filled with traps and none of us could deal with it but we worked around them. anyway we are facing 4 goblin Barbarians It was us three and a npc fighter of 1st lv. Well to cut to the chase me and the fighter both died, I had two on me and two on him. The GM rolled two attacks for me and lo and behold two nat-20's with confirm crits. And The npc died as well. So I now need to make a new character, and I want to heal and fight but, My group needs a healer but also needs a fighter. So I was thinking Bard, they can heal and fight. Was also going to go as arcane duelist. I was also thinking of a druid so I can help fight with my Animal companion and heal my party. I could go as a cleric but I don't know. Rogue just poped into my head. As for race I wanted to play as a Tengu, but any of the 7 races are fine. I just need advice as what to play,Thanks.
Hello, I have a few questions about using technology In my table top game. Where we play We have a 50inch Plasma T.V. I was thinking of hooking a laptop to the T.V. and pretty much using the T.V. As a battle map. Now the main question is what about software to use for a battle map. Also has anyone used hero lab? What about some software for a battle map, anything good out there? Any and all suggestions would be helpful! Thanks.
I have a Player that wants to be a "necromancer" with the death and glory domains. He wants to control the dead but for his own use. Kinda like fighting fire with fire. Should I as the GM allow this? Also he wants to wield a Holy and Unholy sword. Also would casting control undead or something like the that with an evil spell descriptor make him evil? Where would his alignment end? and How also wants to heal and channel positive energy so how would that work with creating and controlling undead? Thanks for any and all help. -MRblahface
Ok, I am starting a game soon and a player wants to play a shape changing race. Frist he suggested a shifter from the 3.5 book. If i were to allow that how would I convert that to PFRPG? But then He suggested a Lycanthrope. I was going to start at LV1 but that may not be possible. Is there any 3rd party races that allow this? Or how would I allow him to be a werewolf and what lv would I start at? Thanks! -MRblahface.
Seoni's Iconic wright up says that her tattoos aid her in her casting. What does that mean? Is there there Rules for tattoo magic or will there be rules for tattoo magic in the future maybe in Ultimate Magic Or another book? If there already is rules on them, can some one point the way to them? Also How much aid would they give, would you be able to hide them (like the spell arcane mark), and how long would it take to Tattoo the tattoos? Is Seoni's Tattoos arcane mark or something else? Would it take a day, week, month, would it be a ritual? Please Discuss and thank you. -MRblahface.
I really want to attend but I don't know if I have the money to attend. I bought the tickets for the con and banquet already but I would be flying from Massachusetts. I would also need to get a car and a hotel. So we are talking close to a thousand or so maybe more. I really want to attend because I rarely have the chance out here to play pathfinder here in Massachusetts. I am a forum lurker but still would be nice to go. Also am not one of the most outgoing and tend to be on the shy side. But reason for positing this is One If I don't attend is there a way to sell my tickets for the con and banquet or return them? Because tickets are normally not returnable non-refundable. Sorry for the ramble I tend to do that alot and thanks for answering my question... -MRblahface.
BUMP! I still am looking for a group. I am also am looking for anything an hour out or so. Thanks.
Ok, Here is a question. What is PF's rule about natural healing? Meaning when a charter goes to sleep what does he heal in hp (if anything) when He wakes up? And how is that determined? I looked in the book but could not find it. Thanks!
Hello, How is every one? Ok I for some time have been wanting to run a pathfinder game with my gaming group. And am Having a REALLY hard making a good encounter or dungeon. I have made a couple of Dungeons before but they have either been three rooms that all look the same or a temple that is kinda "on rails (like pretty much telling them where to go)" Also I need some help on making the actual encounter, like what they are fighting or stuff like that. I kinda am having some trouble figuring the APL or CR. some background info there three of them and we are starting at lv one. the characters they just made are a goblin bow fighter, a gnome bard, and Dwarf Barbarian. They choose to all be Chaotic neutral. So with that said what should I have them do, because there not "good" or "Evil" and at the start they hate each other. So any help tips or anything else would be great, thanks. P.S. Sorry if this is in the wrong forum. |
