Jong Sasaki's page

Oh great and wise Valashinaz, we bring a gift from the Pathfinder Society. Our leadership hopes the meeting today will be the start of a long relationship that will benefit both parties. Jon offers to back up Todd.

That was exactly what I had in mind.

◆◆ Jong casts Soothe on Lande

Sooth healing for Lande: 1d10 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

And since the subsequent rounds of Biting Words is a single action

◆ Jong casts Biting Words at Yellow

Spell Attack Roll for Biting Words (2nd attack) at Yellow: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10
Biting Words Sonic Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (3, 3) = 6

The healing went reasonably well, but the Biting Words attack didn't

Since Yellow dropped Lande with the Pick, shouldn't Lande have moved to just before Yellow in initiative?

Jong would have taken the 10 minutes to refocus to ensure she has all her focus points available.

I don't think we have heard the Humanoids speak yet, so hopefully they speak Common

◆ Jong pulls out a scroll of Biting Words

◆◆ Jong casts Biting Words at Blue

Spell Attack Roll for Biting Words (1st attack) at Blue: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (12) + 9 = 21
Biting Words Sonic Damage: 2d6 ⇒ (2, 6) = 8

Yes, but it sounds like either Presbyterian or Episcopalian, which are religions. I admit I stretched the sound for the bad joke.

What's your religion got to do with eating Chicken?

Jong will try the Chicken Sauce quickly, as they prepare to head back to Purepurin.

Fortitude save for the Chicken Sauce: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15

Probably not a critical failure

That's some powerful sauce

Just in case I need it.

Deception to make them think I liked the sauce.: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16

Maybe

Perhaps later, but for them moment, we need to recover an item Purepurin accidently traded to you. Purepurin offered this in exchange. as she indicates the Young Faerie Dragon Liqueur

Diplomacy to negotiate the trade: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (16) + 6 = 22

Perhaps we could get some Chicken Sauce to go?

@GM Tiger, thank you for the correction. As far as I know, you are correct and Earn Income should be at level -2.

Downtime roll using Crafting to Earn Income: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 9 = 16

Another failure. I should go through my rolls for this scenario and calculate the average.

Jong once again tries to get up the wall Acrobatics DC 18: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 7 = 10

Can I go home now? Since I got the Hero Point back, I'll give it another try.

Jong once again tries to get up the wall Acrobatics DC 18: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22

Yeah!

Jong stumbles as she tries to scale the wall but finally gets a grip at a critical point and succeeds.

Jong tries to get up the wall Acrobatics DC 18: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16

Jong is not successful.

Crafting to Stabilize the pile: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (3) + 9 = 12

You have got to be kidding. The header says I still have a Hero Point, so I'll use it.

Crafting to Stabilize the pile: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 14

I'm going to go cry in the corner now.

Round 6

Reflex save DC 18: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11

Jong slips and falls on the slippery floor

Reflex save DC 18: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19

Jong manages to slide across the floor without falling. (for round 4)

Reflex save DC 18: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25

Jong gets her footing on the slippery surface and keeps moving forward (round 5)

For some reason, Yong is particularly ill suited to this chaes.

Yong looks at the situation and decides that since she can't help with Survival or Nature, she will try to craft a set of wheels to attach to the chest to get the whelps to their parents faster.

Crafting: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13

And doesn't contribute.

It was worth a shot. A four on the die wouldn't have succeeded with anything.

This is going to be an ugly one for Jong

Jong tries to calm te vermin

Performance (Untrained): 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

Hero Point

Performance (Untrained): 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 1 = 12

Sorry, best I could do.

From what I have read, there are two different situations for the remaster. Rebuilding or major changes would not occur during a session. Changing feats, swapping out spells etc. would fall into this category.

Other changes, like the changes to the Spells that keep the same name but no have new damage, are treated like errata and applied immediately.

I think this post and the one that follows apply here, but it is not 100% clear.

Pardon me. Excuse me. Pardon me

Jong tries to Acrobatics her way through.

Acrobatics through the crowd: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21

Excuse me. Pardon me. She says as she moves lithely through the crowd.

We are emissaries from the Pathfinder Society. We have gifts for Valashinaz we need to present on behalf of the Pathfinder Society leadership.

On our way, we ran into a group of Goblins who had recently visited here. They showed us a shortcut and gave us the password for the alarms.

◆ Stride forward

◆◆ Cast Telekinetic Projectile at the Red Swarm, picking up a rock for bludgeoning damage
Telekinetic Projectile Attack: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13
telekinetic Projectile bludgeoning damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

Purepurin, we are going to have a serious talk about your housekeeping

Jong feels the world around her shift slightly as she casts a slightly altered version of one of her Cantrips.

◆◆ Casting Daze as a 2nd level cantrip, damage is Remaster version at White
Daze damage per Remaster player core, Basic Will save DC 19: 1d6 ⇒ 6

◆ Cast Shield to bring AC to 19

Jong steps back and casts a spell

◆ Step

◆◆ Cast Chilling Spray using the template to avoid my friend and catch one square of the swarm.
Chilling Spray Cold damage, DC 19 Reflex save: 2d4 ⇒ (2, 2) = 4

Reflex Save DC 17 4 Damage: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25

Jong does her best to dodge the Rat in the Jar.

◆◆ Cast Telekinetic Projectile at Red again, picking up a loose rock for Bludgeoning damage
Spell Attack Roll: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (13) + 9 = 22
Bludgeoning damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (6, 3) + 4 = 13

◆ Step behind the pillar for cover?

Apologies. It fits thematically that she failed since she didn't realize she needed to speak Rat. Looks like I wasted a scroll.

◆ Stride across the room for better Line of Sight

◆◆ Cast Telekinetic Projectile at Red, picking up a loose rock for Bludgeoning damage
Spell Attack Roll: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18
Bludgeoning damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (2, 2) + 4 = 8

Assuming you are Purepurin, we need to have a serious discussion about your housekeeping and the way it attracts vermin.

◆ Pull out a scroll

◆◆ Cast Biting Words from the scroll, 1st Attack of 3

Spell attack roll against Swarm 1: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11

Biting Words Sonic damage: 2d6 ⇒ (5, 4) = 9

It feels like time to use a Hero Point.

Spell attack roll against Swarm 1: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10

And the hopes and dreams are crushed again.

I hope we don't get mistaken for intruders? I wonder where Purepurin got to?

Since this place is obviously dangerous, Yong will go ahead and cast Mage Armor on herself

None of the items are of particular interest.

Grumble. I just noticed I hadn't updated Jong's stat block to level 3. RPGChronicles was right, and her stats are right now.

Jong steps closer to the wall and casts a spell at the Blue rat.

We are going to have to discuss cleanliness with Purepurin when we find them. Leaving food and discarded containers around attracts vermin.

◆ Step toward the wall

◆◆ Cast Daze at Blue, damage 4 mental, Basic Will save DC 19

Before we go any further, has anybody got a way to heal? Those coins really beat me up.

Jong continues to try and escape.

Escape, Attack bonus: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23

Jong emerge from the coin pile bruised and battered.

Reflex save, DC 20: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8

Hero Point
Reflex save, DC 20: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15

Ouch! 18 Damage, but at least it wasn't 36

Assuming I need it

Escape, Attack bonus: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7

Jong is buried and going deeper.

I suggest we move slowly and check each of the rooms as we go by. Jong's suggested route is illustrated by light green arrows. Feel free to change her recommended if there is a reason.

Can Jong examine the bombs using Crafting? If so, she has a +8

Yes, we are going to see Cave Lady. It sounds like she is very nice.

Jong definitely tries the marinated chicken. She will compliment the taste of the chicken in Goblin, but keep most of the conversation in Common for the benefit of the rest of the party.

May I see the parchment?

She will examine the parchment for a minute, using Quick Identification to see if it has any magical properties. (Arcana, Crafting and Occultism all +8)

Jong will take two minor healing potions

Jong looks at the situation and pulls out her repair kit to either repair the wagon to make it easier to move or construct a lever to help lift the cart out of the divot.

Crafting check: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (17) + 8 = 25

Do we know of any dangers between here and the entrance to Valashinaz' cave?

Is there a particular ceremony or phrase we should use in presenting this gift to Purepurin?

Should we further engage Purepurin after we present the gift to try to get further access to Valashinaz' cave?

My name is Jong Sasaki. It is an honor to meet you. Jong says as she bows to the Waterfall.

A thin woman of obvious Tien descent enters and takes a seat.

I am Jong Sasaki. Are you new to the Society?

I got my chronicle and it looks good.

Thanks for running.

At least we know which relic is causing our issues. We should probably turn the Druid over to the authorities, so he doesn't trouble other travelers.

RPGChronicles looks good

Accounting Lore to Earn Income: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11

◆◆ Cast Telekinetic Projectile to pick up a rock and try to bash the Blue Creature

Spell Attack roll: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (15) + 8 = 23
Bludgeoning Damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

◆ Cast Blood Ward on Folmyr to protect them from aberrations. Folmyr gets +1 status bonus to AC versus aberrations, like Blue.

With the Rk check, would Jong know what type of foe (aberration, animal, beast, celestial, construct, dragon, elemental, fey, fiend, fungus, monitor, ooze, plant, or undead) the reefclaws are for Blood Ward . I would guess animal or beast, but there are other possibilities.

Reflex save versus Entangled: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21

◆◆ Cast Telekinetic Projectile to pick up a rock and try to bash the Red Creature

Spell Attack roll: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (20) + 8 = 28
Bludgeoning Damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

◆ Try to make a Knowledge check on the creatures from the sea. Possible bonuses: Arcana +8, Crafting +8, Occultism +8, Society +8, Absalom Lore +8

and minimum damage for the Crit

I am good with my position.

The halfling mentioned a Centaur behind the attacks. Perhaps this is the leader. Jong whispers to her compatriots.

We should probably press on. The sooner we get these artifacts delivered the sooner we can be done with them.

Grumble, grumble action economy

◆ Sustain Blood Ward for Duncan

◆◆ Cast Telekinetic Projectile to pick up a branch and try to spear the Red Wolf

Spell Attack roll: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (6) + 8 = 14
Piercing Damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

Do they have any resistances, weaknesses, or immunities?

◆ Sustain Blood Ward on Duncan

◆ Stride forward

◆ Recall knowledge on the halflings

Apologies. I misread the initial text. I see now the wolves are animals, so the Blood Ward on Duncan would be for attacks from Animals, not Beasts.
