I have a Cleric of the Dwarven pantheon in a Second Darkness campaign (converted to Pathfinder from 3.5) And will soon be high enough level to begin casting lesser planar ally. I have found in Inner Sea Gods on pg. 155 It lists several of his summonable planar allies, including The Grand Defender, Ambassador Zurin, Hrilga Shield-Maiden, and Stoneriver. But it only has in the back the stats for The Grand Defender. I really wanted to use one for each iteration of planar ally, but am unsure which ones belong to lesser, regular and greater. The Grand Defender is 18 HD so obviously its summoned with Greater Planar Ally, but what about the others? Are there any published stats for these outsiders? Or has any players made custom stats? I could force my DM to custom make them but would prefer if I could find some premade and just have them approve it. Thanks in advance for any help.
My Diviner wizard wants to make an item that is like a lesser version of a crystal ball. I was going to have it cast Clairaudience/clairvoyance once per day with a command word. If I go by the item creation rules It would look something like this. Spell Level (3) x Caster Level (5) x 1,800 = 27,000 it only has 1 charge per day so total divided by (5/1=5) 27,000/5 = 5,400gp. Do I multiply the price by 2 for it not taking up an item slot since it is just a glass ball? or does that only apply to worn items that don't take up a slot like a brooch of shielding?
I imagine property value goes down when you live in a place filled with ogres eating your horses, goblins eating your children and fey messing with your farm for kicks. There are very few things more difficult than being a homesteading peasant in a fantasy world. 1% of the time a varisia peasant goes to his field there is a dragon of its terrain type chilling on it. At least according to the RoTRL encounter table. Give the land to anyone brave/dumb enough to try and farm it maybe.
So my group has been using an old dry eraser mat for Few years and its worked well (took us all the way through Runelords and a bit in a few others) but i was thinking of upgrading. I've read about projectors or using tablets. But I'm not sure. Most of our group has tablets so i was thinking maybe that route but we all play in the same room and a lot of that software seems complicated and made for long distance playing. Projectors seem either expensive or require playing in the dark. I mostly want something that will show torch/Darkvision radius and fog of war effects. If anyone has any advice it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for the help guys also the other thread James Jacobs chimed in which is then canon i guess. I think in going to have her build a ramp at one of the lower parts similar to the Romans at massda but with academe magic and wall of stone spells and chelaxian architects. And since we just finished Runelords she will want to build a road to xin shalast in the race for its riches to fuel her rise to power.
So I'm running a curse of the crimson throne campaign that I'm adjusting for Pathfinder rules. I like that the conversion leaves a lot of room for side quests with the XP difference. Accordingly I have a player with a Shoanti character whose long-term goal is to lead the sklar quah. I was thinking of having Illeosa wage a war on the shoanti (I already have her committing genocide within the city since it helped get the Shoanti interested in city politics.) the question being how do i get her army of grey maidens up the storval plateau without going hannibal and going all the way to the storval stairs or sacking kaer maga and potentially throwing future adventures thier out of wack. I figured she has near limitless finances. This would allow me to have my player unite the tribes after scarwall and drive her army from the plateau. Thanks in advance.
It took four years worth of Sunday's. Playing 5ish hours a night (we role play and kingdom build a lot) but we climbed the spires of Xin Shalast and defeated Karzoug the claimer. Lictor of the Nail Lord Gwaine killer of lictor Severas in the battle of janderhoff basin (Fighter9/Hellknight10) weilder of. Titan skewer (+5 giant bane Domineering Guisarme) and his wyvern fighter mount cohort Rexinogorophan (razor wing in Common) laid the final blow. We turned fort rannick and turtle back ferry into a thriving metropolis (rannickton) and seated our own heir on the throne. We have retired our characters and begun curse of the crimson throne and second darkness in the hopes of playing shattered star and eventually a varisian sandbox game accounting for all of the changes made by our parties and thier adventures. I have been playing Dnd since i was 8 (I'm 31 now) and thus is my first retired character that completed an entire campaign. I would just like to thank the paizo staff for a good game.
Our party is 18th level and befitting a high-level party has multiple permanent magical effects, including telepathic bond. The question being that the description of bardic performance states that audible effects must be heard and visual performances must be seen. Would an oratory performance work via telepathic communication? It can be heard, and I can think of no reason why an inspiring speech would be less inspiring via telepathic bond. this is important because they argue they can be stealthed while doing it telepathically. any assistance would be appreciate.
My Party enjoys classic fantasy staples, so I was going to have thier longtime enemy (an evil lich) cast somthing like baleful polymorph with a contingency trueform spell that will cast if the polymorphed person fufills a specific criterea i.e. "ruin the lives of seven good beings" or somthing like that, but i would like the polymorph spell to not turn them into a little squirrel or frog but instead somthing like an anthropamorphised version (a grippli maybe?) is this within the limits of the spell? it would seem weaker since a grippli can still fight well enough. if its not what would be the appropriate level for this spell? i would want any spell my villian uses to be in his spell book and later available to party members when they kill him. thanks for the help in advance.
so i was watching history channel and they said that flails were implemented in midevil times because they were a good counter to shield using opponents because they could hit the edge of the shield with the chain and it would wrap around and hit the dude in the head. do you think their could be a feat that made it so when you wielded a flail it reduced or nullified an opponents shield bonus? is it too powerful of a feat? its pretty specific you dont fight many people with shields and it would be usless against monsters. so what do you guys think is it plausable as a feat? |
