Jalthas Chronarion's page

Hi GM Tiger and fellow players,

I wanted to present my sincerest apologies, because I will have to bow out of this game (and PbP as a whole) effective immediately, for personal reasons. I am truly sorry for that.

Kind regards,

Lithrac/Jalthas

Oh, right! Sorry, I completely forgot as well.

"Yellow Musk Thralls! Use fire on these mindless wretches!"

I'll use my third action to retrieve an alchemist's fire.

"Alright, let's mow them down." the elf retorts while considering the best course of action. He studies the three silhouettes carefully, attempting to recall something useful about it (he'll immediately share information with his fellow Pathfinders), then seeks to find a way to harm them, and glares at the closest enemy.

◆ Recall Knowledge, creature (red/blue/white): 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 7 + 1 = 20 Dubious Knowledge if failure.
◆ Exploit Vulnerability (red/blue/white): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22 Exploit Vulnerability rules
◆ Demoralize (red): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15

I'm fine with the dice bot!

Perception, map bonus: 1d20 + 6 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 6 + 1 = 17

Jalthas took so much time finding the map in his backpack that he feels very rushed in studying it, and isn't able to make sense of it. "I believe... wait, no, maybe the other way?" he hesitates.

Jalthas chimes in "I believe I have a map for that mushroom ring. Wait, let me get it..." he says as he starts rummaging through his backpack, eager to find it. However, the massive number of paraphernalia and baubles of many kinds, all relevant to his esoteric studies, litter his bag. At last, he gets the map. "Mushrooms indeed! I'm ready now!"

As for the token, I'm not really great at any of the skills to boost the token, unless the Provide Knowledge one can be boosted with Esoteric Lore?

I'm back from my ski camp. Thanks for your patience!

Choices:

Inventory - Lesser antidote + lesser alchemist’s fire

Magical Supplies - Minor Healing Potion

Mapping - Survey Map for one encounter in Part 1 (encounter A - the mushroom ring)

Morale - +2 circumstance bonus to one skill check or attack roll,
representing the fellow Pathfinder succeeding at a check to Aid them. The PC must decide to use this benefit before rolling.

Repairs - cold iron rapier

Research - Automatically succeed at 1 RK check in the adventure

I see that both Scarlet Pimprenel and Tandang Boreas are both very good at Survival, and Tandang is great at Medicine too, so I'll pick Craft (no one appears to be good at it) and Lore: Mwangi Expanse.

Nic has Thievery, but backup is not a bad thing. Survival would be a good one.

Great! Anyone good at Medicine, then? That's another of my options.

One last thing to set up: my Tome implement allows me to pick two skills every day in which I become trained. I thought about picking Thievery (I have Thieves' tools) and Survival for this mission. Unless there's a skill that we're lacking more?

An elf soon joins the Pathfinders, carrying and ever-browsing an old musty and very heavy tome in his hands. The elf doesn't seem to notice the agitation around him, much too absorbed in his reading. Then suddenly, he closes the large book, and glances around. "Ah, I see we have arrived. Not a moment too soon. Well met, companions, I am Jalthas Chronarion, sent by Master Shaine of the Scrolls to provide accurate information on all matters at hand during our mission. I will let you know that our very lives depend on the accuracy of said information, which I do not take lightly. Let's help around and see what we can do - or what information we might gather about the task at hand, shall we?" he concludes empathically, with a slightly annoying bossy tone added with a pinch of apparent overconfidence. One might wonder if the elf has seen field work before.

He visits Urwal first, uneasy at the idea to give insights about matters he's not so familiar with, but quickly gains in assurance as he goes. "I assume we'll have to cross leagues of wilderness before we reach the gate. Do you have any idea what dangers await? Let me check what my tome says about this area."
Nature: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 4 = 24 +4 if this is a Recall Knowledge check about creatures, curses or haunts, +2 if it's a RK check about anything else (using Lore: Esoteric instead)

"You must be Fola Barun. I've heard great things about you and the Ekujae elves. Well met. By the way, is this area inhabited by our brothers and sisters?" he questions before lending his expertise with all manners occult, but is probably too enthusiastic about meeting the Ekujae to be of any help here.
Occult: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9 +4 if this is a Recall Knowledge check about creatures, curses or haunts, +2 if it's a RK check about anything else (using Lore: Esoteric instead)

He then proceeds to help Venture-Captain Torrsen with the watch. "At the ready, Sir! Nothing shall escape my eyes!" he boasts.
Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23

Later, he approaches Benarry with more caution, using well-chosen words to show he's no stranger with diplomacy with local tribes. "A-a-as a former emissary, I'm no stranger to local customs. Allow me to t-t-talk with them. " he stammers, obviously not holding pressure very well.
Diplomacy: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11

His helps for Venture-Captain Blackthane proves a much bigger challenge for the elf who apparently feels more at ease in a cosmopolitan meeting than in the jungle. However, he unexpectedly proves quite helpful in his endeavor, maybe because he feels a lot less pressure by having nothing to prove in this area of expertise!
Crafting: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (20) + 1 = 21

Finally, he beams a bright smile when he finally meets Valais Durant. He bows with utmost respect before the aasimar. "I present you my respects, most esteemed Pathfinder. My father, Kynrac Chronarion, told me a lot about you, and how you met in the dire deeps of the Nerosyan Lodge. I'm very glad to count you among those who will join forces in this mission. I am Jalthas."
Society: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13 +4 if this is a Recall Knowledge check about creatures, curses or haunts, +2 if it's a RK check about anything else (using Lore: Esoteric instead)

Apologies for the sheer fanboyism here! Valais Durant is probably my favourite NPC in the whole PFS-verse.

GM Tiger, I just wanted to let you know a few days in advance - I won't be available (ski camp with my students) from March 8th-10th. I will try to check my games, but I don't know how the network will be, nor if I'll have time to post. Sincere apologies in advance, and thank you for your understanding. Feel free to bot me during that time.

Of course! I've added the botting instructions at the top of my character sheet.

All done as well. Looking forward to this game!

Lore: Esoteric, DC 14: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24 *crit* 16 sp as well.
Not sure if I can use Lore: Esoteric to earn income since it's a class feature.
