@Maria:
Really? I haven't heard of a beer by that name. xD I don't really care much for hoppy beers though, tbh. Something about them sends my "BITTER!!" taste buds off the charts xD
Joey calls out, "OTRA VEZ!! This time for sure, right??" With his pistol raised to fire, he fires it at the ninja with hopes and certainty that he can't miss again.
Raising his pistol, he takes a shot at the ninja that dared to swing at him, before calling out, "HA! I knew there would be an ambush!!"
Joey throws his hands into air and cries out, "Havok! Let's cash in our proverbial chips and literal golden boots before our luck-well runs dry! I don't want to face more of those things - they may have bigger cousins!"
Seeing the sleeping beast, Joey circles around before ending standing so he's flanking the creature, but he'll aim his pistol at the one still standing.
The Investigator mutters to himself as he glares at the sleeping beauty beneath him, "Sleep well, my princess. Your life will soon be mine!"
"Et tu, Dave?" Ah HA! I knew I wasn't the only one that has seen Julius Caesar! Lmfao Fallout 4... Still need that game xD
Joey - following along the others down the path - grumbles, "What, I don't get a vote! I was going to say we should investigate this place more! Ha! I voted anyway - take that!" As they enter the cavern, his eyes immediately fall upon the three uncanny critters, and he alerts his friends of their presence, trying to point out the locations of these monsters. "Guys, look out! Three hostiles on the walls!" Letting his gaze fall directly on the one to the room's left, Joey's eyes seem to shift malignant as they peer into the creature's very soul.
Crosses his arms and turns his nose up into the air with a huff. "Oh yeah - let everyone hate on the Man With the Golden Boot now, huh! No autographs for you all then when we get back to the States!" With Pavel's grim mention of his suspicions towards Isagoras' Order, Joey adds, "I trust Isagoras, but I have trouble trusting those that I don't know... Ah well - if they end up using it for evil then that's just another Big Bad for us to tackle, right? We can take 'em!"
Joey playfully sticks his tongue out towards Valda, chiming, "Please - after I cash in my golden boot, every dagger in the world will be practically BEGGING to get a stab in on me!" Stepping over to the others and leaning in to glance at the blade, the Investigator laughs and shrugs his shoulders as he returns upright. "Honestly thought we'd run into ninjas down here too, or something. Thought that "evil sect" would have an ambush waiting for us - guess not!"
Joey watches on as Pavel slowly removes the dagger, and loudly whispers, "Don't drop it. Whatever you do, don't drop it!"
That awkward moment when you forgot to factor Toughness into your HP.. Waves hand. "You didn't see anything..."
"Yeah, sure thing - that's fair enough. Plenty of medicine to go around - c'mere Dave!" He calls out as he approaches his friend with the vials in hand, saying, "I'll even give him the ones I was planning on giving you - so that away you'll know I'm not keeping the safe ones in my coat!"[/b] Joey will then proceed to feed Dave two of his extracts of CLW.
"..I knew I shouldn't have skipped Leg days... and it wouldn't hurt to shave once in a while.. I knew I was forgetting something when I packed for trip! Of all the things to forget, it just had to be my candy-striper uniform.. We'll just have to put a rain-check on the dress-up for now, Pavel."
"I've always wanted to a mommy, Dave," he says before turning back to Pavel with sigh. "Well I figured a smart bloke like you would have some sort of way of checking if these were poisoned, besides I'm a registered nurse - I took a hippocratic oath to never poison nor place trackers in unwilling, injured patients, or I run the risk of perjury under the State of New Mexico's 'Privacy and Emergency Neutral Integrity Statutory' Act. The government created it so that people unwilling to submit to their tracking devices and demon epidemic-vaccines could still legally decline... For now. Here are my credentials.." With his free hand, Joey retrieves his wallet from his coat and flashes it open then closes it back akin to the gag were people pretend to be cops showing their badges. Returning his wallet back to coat's pocket he turns up his hand with a smile and says, "See? Now do you trust me?"
Joey looks back to their newfound companion and blinks as he only now realizes that he is injured. "Oh! I'm sorry - here, I have a few extracts you could drink. They'll make you feel a little better, at least.. Better than nothing for now, right?" Reaching into his trench coat, he removes two vials of his extracts of Cure Light Wounds and steps over to Pavel, opening the vials and readying to feed them to him.
Giving Dave a fist-bump as they fell the final beast, he peers down the paths before adding, "...Too bad we couldn't just answer some obscure riddle or something. I really don't think we should be splitting up either... Hmmmm.." Focusing all his senses, he attempts too determine if there are any tell-tale signs of which path they should take, any ominous sounds coming from either, or which one would be generally safer.
Seeing the mephit stand before them, Joey whoops in delight beaming a huge grin.
Raising his pistol, he pops another cap into his target.
It was the values next to his saves that you rolled after the mephits attack. I assumed one was a successful reflex save and the second was not and that's why one was half the other :)
Joey draws his pistol and fires at an already-injured Mephit.
Hearing Valda's suggestion on spells, Joey decides on trying one of his own cantrips, calling out, "Alright, let's show 'em how it's done, Blackfur!" With a quick gesture, a pinch of wool, and a call-out, Joey casts Daze on the healthiest-looking one and silently damns himself for having used Burning Hands already.
Joey lives! Just had to put in long work hours the last three days xD Earned me four days off though as a reward, so woo-hoo! So I'll post for my surprise round then for my round 1 action now xD Edit: For clarity, does the -2 and -4 by the saves mean a total of -6 damage for Joey?
Shrugging his shoulders, Joey says, "Eh, you probably just dipped in wrong. You're right though, let's see what other horrors await us in this ruin! Maybe the next room will have a spa to go with this wonderful mineral water!" Advancing down the path before them, he prances gracefully with each step akin to a model on a catwalk.
Emerging from the pool, Joey sets his familiar down and begins shaking himself free of the excess water before unballing his trench coat and returning it around his body. The Investigator begins stretching and limbering up, a new feeling of acrobatics coming over him as he turns to the others and says, "Man, that was actually a refreshing dip! I'm gonna have figure out what kind of minerals they got in this pool so I can bath in this back home! I feel so limber! Do you guys feel anything?" As he asks, he starts hopping on each leg, testing his newfound grace.
Calling back, he feigns frustration as he says, "It's the thought that counts, Valda! At least someone has my back! 'Sides, won't be like I'm completely useless. I can still cast some spells... Just... Won't be as save-the-day effective as I usually am.."
Joey laughs for a bit as he says, "Oh Valda! Modern bullet casings are waterproof!" Turning back to see Pavel holding his pistols above the water, he calls out, "Same goes for most pistols too, buddy!" With a chuckle he marches forward, slightly shaking his head at how silly his friends were before his expression turns grim and he realizes the salt-round magazines he brought with him were submerged. Weakly, he says, "Oh... But I suppose... salt dissolves in water, huh... Whoops. Hope we don't have to rely on non-lethal tactics.. Looks like I'll be shooting blanks in that situation... I knew I should've just bought rubber bullets...."
Having returned his pants to his waist where they, arguably, belong, and slipping the boot plus golden boot to his feet, Joey claps his hands before removing his trench coat and holding it balled up on his free shoulder with one hand and saying, "Well, my gun didn't turn and my pants didn't turn. Obviously whatever enchantment that turned boots to gold has now passed or only effects cloth? Should be fine to just wade through." With a little hop into the pool directly in front of where they stand, Joey turns back and says, "C'mon, what are you guys? Scared of a little water?" Turning back to face the door before them, he'll begin to walk towards it, carefully minding his stepping so as to not fall and get his familiar wet.
Eyyyyy! Brian crossing timelines just to spread pacing wisdom to the God of our PC's destinies! xD
Looking back as he dips his newly removed pants into the water, he chimes, "Don't want to see what? Amazing swag-ass golden pimp pants? Don't hate, Dave - you could take off your pants too! I'm actually judging you for keeping yours on right now!"
Joey laughs as he passes Pavel his shoes, his pants halfway down, and says, "Sure, investigate all you want! Dunno why'd you want to question such a great blessing though!"
How very interesting! Can't wait to see where this leads xD
Joey's eyes widen with delight as a genius idea comes to his mind, speechless at the mere sight. He feels as if the scene should be more frightening or bizarre to him, but he can't help but be enamored with the idea. Removing his gun from it's holster, he gives it a good dip and swish around as if he were applying a hydrographic pattern to it. Quickly raising his gun back into the air, he smiles with delight and declares, "The man with the Golden Gun!!" "If I didn't love your ebony fur, I'd dip you in here too, Blackfur!!" he casually says to his cat before suggesting to the others as he removes his other shoe and trench coat to drop them into the water as well, "If you have any mundane objects that you want to sell, why not give them a dip? We'll be rich when we return home!!" He can quickly be seen working his belt as he begins to remove his slacks as well, even though he feels that Blackfur is trying to get him to keep them on.
"Well my foot's still here.. Nothing's chomping on it. Seems just like ordinary water to me." Swishing his foot around in the liquid just to make it's evenly coated, he shifts his weight towards his foot as he reaches towards the ground, if there is even one within reach. "Pretty chilly, but hey - what do you expect, right?"
Joey scans the room before taking a deep breath and whispering, "I have a very bad feeling about this room..." Picking up his, he sets her to lay across his shoulders before suggesting, "Everyone be on your guard." Cautiously setting a foot into the liquid he assumes to be water, he slowly anchors as he tries to gauge how deep it is before anything else.
I was actually just about to do something both profound and significant that was entirely dependent on being in that room in particular!! "Joey reloads his gun." Thank God we got that cleared up! That could've been a game changer! xD
Hearing Dave leaves Joey with a smile as takes his opportunity, and says, "Ecce! Nolite audire nostro! Linguam Latinam profundissima! Quid, quod alio animo sunt Isagoras et tam sacro sanctum detineat ideas ab aeterno et curiosæ aures auscultatores! Hi postquam in se intellectualia, de fornace, ut sit commutatio exposita..." The Investigator pauses as he dramatically turns to face Dave and finishes with, "Spoilers! And we can't have that, now can we!" Latin:
"Lo! Do not listen to our friend! Latin is a language most profound! Why, how else are Isagoras and I intended to sanctum such sacred ideas from the ever-prying ears of eavesdroppers and meddlers! Such folk finding themselves within the foundry of our intellectual exchange may be exposed to..." Joey turns to glance down the path before them and notes the descent into darkness before before asking, "Isagoras, if your Order is of the Light then why is this place so dark?"
LMFAO Sexy, but in a shy way. I swear to God, everytime Valda says something I crack up. Nominating Valda for player of the week. xD And poor Elijah! Missed out on some good drink! xD Glad you enjoyed yourself!
Glancing back to the others, Joey shrugs and takes a step back before whispering, "What do you guys think? Seems like a harmless Indiana 'Find-it-and-sell-it' Jones type to me.. He could probably use our help getting out of here, but we can't let him have the artifact. Hell, he may end up finding something else to sell down here instead... Maybe your Order can even pay for his ticket if he offers to help us, Izzy?" The Investigator suggests before casting a quick glance back to Pavel. "What do you guys think?"
chants "Rando-Dave! Rando-Dave! Rando-Dave!"
DING DING DING DING!!
The Investigator thinks to himself for a moment, Survival? Why would this be so important to his own survival? Putting away his smokes, Joey asks, "I'm glad you're reconsidering murdering us, but how did you get here? Just stumbled upon this place? Or where you informed of it's location?"
Lmfao You're too focused trying to get that 1000th post title! xD
Nodding his head to Valda's idea, he takes out his notebook and writes down Magical Jell-O before returning it to his coat. "You could say I work for 'the people' - I'm a Private Investigator. I could show you my credentials, but you'd likely believe they're forgeries, eh?" With a smirk, Joey opens his trench coat to show his own holster as well before letting his coat go. "We're not so different - we like to assess all the possibilities in a given situation. I already introduced myself. You've already met our beloved, diplomat Dave. The others," he turns and points to each as he names them, "Are Isagoras, Valda, Maria, and the single-most important member of our party - Blackfur." He glances down to his cat as he finishes the introductions, turning to face the man again. "You wouldn't happen to mind answering the same questions now, would you?" Reaching into his pocket, he pulls out his pack of cigarettes and lights one before offering the man one as well.
"Yes, we all are," he says as he spreads his arms out to showcase the others as if he were a model from the Price is Right in a past life before letting his arms drop to his side. Readjusting himself to stand upright, he nods and says, "Sure. I'll try to answer anything I can. What is your question?"
Hearing the man speaking in Latin, Joey steps forward with his hands raised between the two swordsmen, looking to each as he says, "Easy, Dave!
Translation:
"Calm down ! Calm down! We are not here to hurt you. My name is Joesph Adams. What are you doing here? How did you get here?" Looking at the man he, tries to appear as non-threatening as possible, though he doesn't rule out the possibility that this man may turn hostile at any moment.
Lol Oh wow that does suck xD Here I always thought you gained a buff for it. Good to know at least!
Awww, in my pursuit of knowledge I stumbled upon a thread from Maria five years ago! Link:
http://paizo.com/threads/rzs2mdg5?Deitys-Favored-Weapon-Martial-andor-Exoti c I saw the name and thought to myself, "Hold on... that sounds rather familiar..." and when I checked the your campaigns thread, I shouted, "Eyyy! Maria!!" But it still doesn't answer my question: "What is the deity's favoured weapon bonus again?" xD It's like +1 to attack and damage right, or just +1 to attack?
