Happy New Year!

Kazuki pipes in.
"I know alot about balance, especially in the natural world. And I have learned much about cleansing this monastery. We need a bit more time to cleanse the evil within."

Nature (T): 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (2) + 12 = 14

Apparently, Kazuki doesn't know very much about the balance within this monastery, though.

I can't think of anything that I missed on the checklist.

I'm also going to purchase a Hunter's Arrowhead

Does this mean we are ready to resume?

=)

Sure. Go ahead. I'll update my profile with the items soon. Possibly tonight when I get home from work.

Found the Bracelets of Dashing (58 gp)

They sound like a reindeer's jingle bells when he activates them. Lol.

Bummer. I'll find something else to putchase.

I thought that since he can cast gravity bow, that he can also cast primal spells.

Is that not how it works?

Sorry for my absence. I'm working on purchases for Kazuki. According to Wealth by level, I have 270 gp to purchase items. So far I have bought:
Lifting Belt 80 gp
Wand of Tailwind (2nd Rank) 160 gp

I still have 30 gp left. Does anyone have any suggestions for items/consumables that every PC should have?

I'll work on the macros page next.

...
...
Macros updated!

All leveled up! Except for purchases.
Here are the major changes to Kazuki:

General Feat: Skitter (crawl up to half speed).
Natural Reflexes: Proficiency rank for Reflex saves increases to Master. When you roll a success on a Reflex save, you get a critical success instead. Woot!
Background Lore Skill Increase: Hunting Lore increases to Master.
Skill Increase: Expert in Athletics
Perception Mastery: Perception increases to Master.
Weapon Specialization: Deal 2 additional damage with weapons and unarmed attacks in which you're an expert.

I'll take those Root Boots!
Wow!
Those are awesome!
Walk up trees and shoot my bow at enemies? Yes, please!

Sorry. I was at my girlfriend's all weekend and came down with a bad flu. I'm home now and laying in bed and will try to finish the leveling up.

I'm sorry. I need some more time to level up. I'll be home from work at around 7:00 p.m. US mountain time tonight. I'll work on updating my physical sheet and then transfer it over to paizo profile.

I was going to say, how do we receive our new equipment if we're stuck in this strange world? Then I realized what you meant by us discovering a treasure trove in here. I should be able to Level up my character by Wednesday evening after work.

Kazuki scratches his head in thought. Then picks up on what Auntie asked.
"Yes. Weaknesses. Is Xin Yue weak to anything?"
Religion (T): 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (15) + 11 = 26

"GAHHH! THEY'RE GOING TO KILL US!!!
Severely frightened by the spirits, Kazuki screams and turns to high-tail it out of there!

Luckily, being outside of the room, he is unaffected by the tornado of debris.

Crit fail first Will Save. Frightened 2 and fleeing! No damage taken from flying debris.

He darts away along the outer walls of the room until he gets to the door in the south wall. Terrified, he grabs the handle and tries to yank it open. (Will open it on beginning of next turn.)

◆ flee 30'
◆ flee 30'
◆ flee to south door.

Bow ready with arrow nocked and keeping in the shadows, Kazuki follows Auntie and Sigurd, ready for any trouble.

Avoid Notice

Kazuki's eyes go wide in shock.
"Hah! So it is the Governor! Why would he do such a thing? He must have made some sort of a deal with Kugaptee. I wonder if his manor got transported to this... place."

Kazuki follows the others to the library.

"Which one of you is Yen Rui?" he asks the messy ghosts.

Funny. When the ghost only said "Go-", I searched through the list of names of NPCs in the Player's Guide and the only one that came up starting with "Go-" was the Governor. So I made a good guess.

I know this is the discussion thread, but, here's my input...

Head in his hands, Kazuki stumbles around a bit in confusion, possibly enhanced by Auntie's liquor...

"Where are we? What is going on!?"

6) "Are we Dead?"
8) "What happens if we die, here or in Willowshore?"

Congratulations!!!

*cough, cough, hack, hack*!
"The air is very foul in here."

Drawing on the lessons he’s learned from Sigurd over the past few weeks, Kazuki lowers his head and begins to chant—a solemn hymn that trembles with conviction. His voice wavers at first, uncertain, but then steadies, growing stronger as he calls out to the gods.

Religion (T), DC 22, Statue Purification: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (7) + 11 = 18

Placing one hand on Kazuki's shoulder, Auntie Wu wordlessly offers him her alcohol gourd. After taking a hearty swig of it herself, that is.

Kazuki guzzles almost the entire contents.

----------------------

"Look," Kazuki points. "A statue. We need to cleanse it somehow. Do we just pull the vines off of it or consecrate it in some way?"

I vote #9.

Kazuki tries to take it all in. He is completely flabbergasted.
"Wha—? What's going on? We're in some sort of time loop? We're not real? But, wait. This is a dream world, right?"

His eyes go wide in confusion and he throws his arms up in the air.
"What the heck is going on!? If it's not real, why are we here? Uggghhhh!!!"

Kazuki drops to his knees and puts his face in his hands. He tries to make sense of it all.

Kazuki's Tradition Check, DC 20.
Nature (T): 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (13) + 11 = 24

----------------------

"Wait, ghost! Come back! Who started it?"
Kazuki looks at his friends with a puzzled look.
"I wonder who it is? Go-? Go- who? Maybe governor? Governor Heh Shan-Bao!?"

Regarding about where to go next, The Chewer came from E12. I vote we go that way.

Happy Halloween, all!

"Ugh. Thank goodness that's over. Good to see the poison wore off on you all. That was some fight. A huge thank you for the healing."

After being healed, Kazuki wanders about and gathers up any arrows that weren't damaged. He searches the chewer for anything interesting and inspects that big sword it was using.

"Die, you bastard."
And with that, he lets the arrows fly...

Hmm. Looks like I pinned him to the ground with that first shot.

"Sigurd! Vekka!" he calls out after seeing the carcass of the giant spider drop to the ground.
"We need some help down here!”

"Nice job taking out that giant spider!"

Kazuki continues to pepper the chewer with arrows...

Kazuki is momentarily stunned but shakes it off. He hustles backwards, away from The Chewer, then fires two quick shots at the crazed creature...

"AAAAHHH!!!" he shouts in pain from the vicious blows.

Stupefied 1 and Stunned 1

That's right! The spider might be pinned to the tree from Kazuki's crit shot! Weapon Specialization crit with bow!

"Aww, crap!" he exclaims as the Chewie thing approaches.
"I'll try, Auntie!" he responds.

Kazuki marks the Chewer as his prey, hustles back a dozen feet or so to put some distance between his bow and his prey, then fires two shots in quick succession...

I hope it's going well!

It is, thanks! I'm working as a cook/chef in a senior living community. I work in the Assisted living & Memory Care kitchens. When I'm done cooking & serving the 20 ppl in Memory Care, I run up to the 3rd floor to do the same in Assisted Living for about 35 residents. Both lunch & dinner.

I've been quite busy with new hire orientation and learning the ropes of my new job (training) and stuff. I will definitely be able to get a post up tonight after work.

"Careful, you two!" he calls out to his friends up in the tree.

Kazuki considers climbing up to help them. He is skilled at fighting while climbing, after all. He thinks for a moment...
"Nah. Screw that."

Kazuki marks the giant spider as his prey. Hoping his arrows will affect it, he fires away...

Yay, crit!

Kazuki, if your initiative bonus is at least +3 (not including your Perception bonus - just the boon bonus) - you may immediately act too!

Haha. I just posted in the gameplay thread. I'm only +2 with incredible initiative. +2 with Seasonal boon, though. Do I get to act?

Don't forget about my +2 Incredible Initiative & +2 Seasonal boon! I'll be able to go before The Chewer!

"Interesting axe."

Identify Rune (Religion) DC 19: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (11) + 11 = 22
Identify Make (Crafting) DC 24: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (19) + 10 = 29

"Woah. It's made of high grade silver and has the fiend bane special property. Niiiice."

Kazuki inspects the tree...
Nature (T) vs DC 20: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (8) + 11 = 19

"That axe sure did a lot of damage to that tree. Let's quickly get it out."

Vekka easily removes the axe.
"Good job!"

Kazuki stands back and watches Vekka and Sigurd deftly scale up the massive tree. He is skeptical to climb after the episode with the tower that had the strange gravitational effect. His stomach churns thinking about it.

"I'll leave the climbing to the two of you."

He is quite impressed at their climbing skills.

"Thank the gods those things didn't try to kill us." he says with a sigh of relief. "Good work on the tea ceremony, friends!"

"I saw that axe stuck in that tree earlier and was very intrigued. I wouldn't mind checking out the kitchen some more, though. It looked like there was a door to a pantry, too. Oh! And be careful in the kitchen. I spilled the pot and made a helluva mess in there."

Kazuki pulls the end of his sleeve over his hand and carefully picks up the hot pot by the (somehow very hot) handle. He calls out to the others in the dining room.
"Sorry! Sorry! Had a little mishap in here! I'm on my way!"
Diplomacy (clever improvisor): 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (11) + 5 = 16

He hurries back into the room with the pot.

How did Kazuki burn himself on the pot when he said he was grabbing it by the handle carefully? Even if the handle is hot, he would have used a towel or his sleeve or something to grab it.

Will (E) @ -2 CF: 1d20 + 13 - 2 ⇒ (16) + 13 - 2 = 27

"That looks delicious!" Kazuki thinks as he sees the spilled liquid on the floor. Realizing it's pretty disgusting, he resists the urge.
"Ugh! Gross! What was I thinking?"

"Oh, no!"
Perception: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (2) + 13 = 15

No hero point. Just gonna let the dice roll the way they want to.

Kazuki carefully grabs the boiling kettle by the handle and carries it out to the group forming the tea ceremony.

"Hey! Why are you talking about making a fire? There's a fire raging right here in the kitchen underneath the boiling pot!"

Kazuki attempts to discern what is cooking by the aroma.
Perception: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (6) + 13 = 19

Kazuki turns and calls out to his group after seeing what's inside the kitchen.
"Hey! There's a big pot of something cooking on a big fire in here!"

Does it smell good? Cooked meat? Vegetables? Udon noodles? Or could it possibly be putrid or burnt?

"I don't know about you all, but I'm starving! I can't remember the last time I ate."

Kazuki is more interested in food rather than tea right now.

"Imma go get the kettle!"

Kazuki darts to the kitchen door. He keeps an eye out for anything cluttered on the floor so he doesn't trip over it...
Perception: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (14) + 13 = 27

I wasn't sure what kind of check I needed to make, so I just went with perception. I guess that could also be used for initiative, if needed.

"Do we have a way to make them some tea? We can get water from the stream outside. We just need some tea leaves and a pot to boil it in."

"There might be a kitchen beyond that door over there." He says as he points to the door on the south wall. "We might be able to find a kettle in there."

Kazuki sticks to the shadows, letting the others take the lead.

Token placed, Avoid Notice exploration. East is fine with me!

"Ahhh. Yes. Thank you for the healing. That's the giant tree that almost killed me before. What can I do to help in the purification ritual?"
I can do the religion check.
