If you want a chronicle sheet, please drop your info and I should get those out ASAP.

I was slow about getting around to this, but I would like a chronicle. Had to do a bunch of bookwork to get my PFS stable back in order. What level range is it? I'd guess 8-10 because the first chronicle was 7-9, but you never quite know.

Yep, level 8-10! I haven't forgotten about them... but I haven't had a day off in, what, 9 days now? I have Friday AND Saturday off so I'll catch up on some stuff then.

Feel free to roleplay a bit - your adventure to Ancestor Isle, what you see there, how you plan on taking on the Reborn.

From what you understand, the Forsaken Fane is the headquarters of the Reborn so the masterminds behind them will likely be here. It's gonna be fortified and hard to get through with plenty of guards and perhaps some traps.

Once Galadhan shoots at Ezkurian and the Confusion is dealt with, we are basically done with Chapter 2. All you have to do is figure out how to get up the well and talk to the prisoners briefly.

Once out of the Sadist Spires, you level up! There is only one real danger left - the Foresaken Fane where the Reborn are headquartered.

It is one fairly large dungeon but I am planning on cutting out the boring/uneventful combats and combining some of them.

Also I suggest you read up on corruptions, particularly the Shadowbound Corruptions!. Just as a hint, your shadowbound corruptions are going to be more prevalent!

He came down when he cast Lightning Bolt :)

If he moves up 5 ft, then you and Galadhan can target him over the Wall of Force.

Okay - I am officially feeling *much* better after several days of rest. I'll get a post up sometime after lunch hopefully!

So everyone took half damage from a successful save from the rope creature's breath attack (7 hp). The acid from the swarms brought you down to 0 temp hp. Which means that the acid happens. So at the start of your turn, do a Reflex save. If you fail, you take 12 acid damage for 2 rounds. You can attempt a new save as a full-round action instead.

And just as a heads up, you'll be levelling up once you finish with the spires!

You're here to rescue some prisoners - from Aiyana's estate and the Bleakshore Council. The Bleakshore is a district in town, and the council are basically anti-Reborn. You heard through the grapevine (e.g. Shevarimarr) that the drider Ezurkian is holding them hostage in his Sadist Spires.

You are currently in the Sadist Spires. There are two spires (giant stalagmites) that are connected. You have searched the three floors of one spire. There is a bridge to the other spire that you haven't checked out yet. You haven't seen the drider nor prisoners yet. You can assume the owb/Gallach were visitors, not the owners of the spire.

No new loot, no.

Intimidate: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 2 = 18

"My my sir, will you please move your cart?". Malakar lights up his hands - hoping the merchant does not know it's the Light cantrip. "Who knows what could happen if you do not."

Finally on the same map as the assassin.

Calivarius (the female caligni prisoner in the other room) has a +1 spell storing rapier (containing hold person), a +1 mithral chain shirt, a +1 buckler, a cloak of resistance +1, plus 17 pp, and 5 gp.

Most of the other things in Aiyana's estate are either valueless, Aiyana's (though you can take anything if you want), or you haven't found it yet.

In the tomb, you found a +1 vicious lance from one of the haunts. Then two +1 returning shock tridents from some statues.

Most of the other treasure you found was masterwork stuff + gold that you'd likely sell. I think that's all. Will double check to make sure.

Canadian Thanksgiving? Have fun! It's a holiday for us on Monday so may take advantage and do some hiking/camping this weekend.

Since Malakar delayed, can he jump in now?

Malakar rolls his eyes at the thugs. "Ugh, this would be so much easier if you just cooperated. But no...."

He moves closer to and lobs a blob of acid at the green one.

Acid splash: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22
crit?: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22
damage: 1d3 ⇒ 1
crit damage: 1d3 ⇒ 1

Hey guys - I'm so sorry about my disappearance. I had a sudden work trip that I needed to go on and was out for a few days. And now my boss's boss is here and been working close to midnight every day it seems. But the worst of it is over and should have a bit more free time. I'll get to regular posting now.

Sorry - I was gone most of the weekend and then worked a 14 hour day yesterday. Gonna catch up and post soon!

I work for the forest service as a hydrologist. May be going out to a site (I think the one we are going to is an 8 hour drive into the mountains) in two weeks for a few days to 'winterize' one of our projects. I'll keep you updated on my schedule - plans most likely will change.

I'm trying to get back into GMing after a bit of a burnout. I think Gameday is the perfect excuse to get back into it. Just need to decide which scenario to run.

Hey - I'm here! Sorry for disappearing. Got super depressed and needed some time off from gaming to focus on my mental health. Things are better so I'm ready to get back to playing.

I'm just about to head into the field for an overnight camping trip for work

This sounds cool. What do you do? I'd like to get paid to camp. :)

I work for the Forest Service. One of our experimental sites is a three hour drive from home base. Had two days of work there so it's better to camp out there.

Worked nearly a 12 hour day yesterday! Didn't have time to set one up. Will likely be working 10 hours today. Will try to set up the channel when I get home tonight.

Welcome back! And away we go...

Commando Will Save: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (16) + 6 = 22
Mastiff Will Save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

Farrar points at the shadowy mastiff. The dog's eyelids start to feel heavy as it slumps to the ground, very much asleep. However, the commando shakes off the slumber and stares directly at the group. "Hey! Stop right this second!"

Before he can advance any further, an arrow flies from Galadhan's bow and punctures the commando's shoulder. He winces in pain, but it does not stop him.

Akku (and his sister Siiska) merge together into one being, despite the phantom's protests. Tendrils start start manifesting out of the spiritualist's back (cool ability!). The commando is very much distracted and does not see Akku hide.

(Thank you for the 'View from the East'!)

Nyx and his hawk - Arcane Familiar - sync as well. The hawk snatches the bauble from Nyx and flies up above the enemies. Finding a gutter (or some sort of neat architectural feature), it perches, staring intently at the sleeping hound and the commando. Nyx, on the other hand, starts readying a spell to launch at the enemies.

Aleks charges in, eyeing both the commando and the mastiff. Seeing as the commando is likely the greater threat, the fighter attempts to stab a few holes into him. He pokes the hole created by Galadhan's arrow, tries to twist it in deeper, but feels some resistance (does not confirm the critical hit). The commando winces in pain, but still stands.

With the mastiff sleeping, the commando looks around at Aleks in front of him, winces at the pain in his shoulder, but jabs at the fighter in front of him, a short sword in both hands.

Short Sword w/ Right Hand: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (15) + 11 = 26
damage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11

Short Sword w/ Left Hand: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (2) + 11 = 13
damage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

Short Sword w/ Right Hand: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18
damage: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8

*Clang Clang* The swords glance off of Alek's shiny armor. The commando let's out a silent scream, cursing the Pathfinders.

Everyone is up!

Just as a heads up, I'm headed out of town for a few days. May have limited time to update, but will try to if I do have time.

All you know is ancient history, rumors, and theories (I don't beleive any of you rolled high enough on the check). Most caligni have forgotten about the Cradle of Night. Aiyana knows little - that whoever possessed the orb would give them increased strength, health, and healing capabilities.

Haramil, who's tomb you just explored, was one of the last person known to have one of these Cradle of Nights. But it likely corrupted him and his subjects feared (or hated?) him, hence the disrespect you found in the tomb - fake gifts, backwards facing statues, etc.

But there is no evidence (yet) that the Reborn 'cult' has anything to do with being 'reborn' or transforming into anything. Seems to be just a name. Maybe once they have the orb and have a chance to play around with it, that may change.

My computer hasn’t been working for the last several days. Taking it in today to see if they can fix it. Let’s see if I can download the module on my phone to try and get an update in the mean time.

I reported the game through Outpost, which may take a while for the organizers to report to Paizo.

If for some reason you don't see your game reported sometime in the near future, please don't hesitate to reach out to me (or the Outpost organizers, i.e. Tyranius) and we can try to fix it for you.

Hey - I'm still here and interested in playing. Sorry for lack of communication on my end. It's been a stressful past month and haven't been in the best head space. But I'm feeling much better and ready to continue.

Thank you! Mom is *much* better. But likely in a wheelchair for the next few months.

Hey guys, sorry for being absent lately. I've had a very rough last few weeks. Mom was hospitalized after a pretty nasty accident then got COVID pretty bad. Still slowly recovering, but not 100% yet.

I'm going to read over the game to see what I've missed and try to push out a post tonight. May not be until tomorrow though.

Hey guys, sorry for disappearing. My mom was in a serious accident. Spent a lot of time with family and was focusing on time with them. Talked with the GM briefly, but got sick with Covid immediately afterwords. Had no energy to post!

Lemme read up on everything and will push out an update soon.

For me, I'm probably leaning more towards the oracle - Doc Ling. Mainly because Osh would like a dedicated healer.

The hobgoblin known simply as Arvax stands out like a sore thumb. This hobgoblin shimmers in the sunlight as Arvax's crystalline skin is very obvious. Arvax is very aware of General Azaersi liaison with the Plane of Earth, as their heritage is now infused with a tinge of earthen elemental background.

Arvax is an agender oread hobogoblin from Oprak. Typically no pronouns, but sometimes uses they/them as pronouns or very rarely he/him or she/her.

"It'll be good to be back home. It's been a while since I've visited Oprak. I have a few ... friends? who have been working as Opraki diplomats." Arvax examines the other Pathfinders as they walk along.

"Though I never really fit in to hobogoblin society," Arvax gestures at their own crystalline body, "it'll be good to converse with other hobgoblins again. Living and working in Absalom has shown me quite a different outlook on life. Hobgoblins tend to be closed minded, but I've learned to tinker with things I probably would not have been able to do back in Oprak."

Arvax realizes they have not done an introduction. "Oh, and I am Arvax, great inventor of Absalom. Pleasure to work with you on this mission."

I'll go ahead and bot Aiobhean since it's been more than 24 hours.

Aiobhean searches around the room as well

Hey guys, sorry. My wifi has been on the fritz so I haven't been able to log on for a few days. Finally got it fixed and should be back and ready to go!

My wifi has been out the last few days. Gonna head to a coffee shop later today to get some wifi so I can put out an update! Thanks for your patience.

I haven't really looked into faction goals, so don't know the exact rules on them.

@Maud, I'll say yes you peacefully resolved that encounter with the wyrds. They were likely to fight you, but you guys managed to resolve it without a combat.

Looks like a majority wants to give the horn to the Concordance, so will mark that on the reporting sheet. Will get your chronicles out in the morning!

Sorry for not posting more. Visiting my parents. Both my mom and I got very sick. Got tested and thankfully not Covid. Feeling much better now. Will update very soon.

Intimidate, aid: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13

Ember flies an Krakos's shoulders and tries to looks majestic and regal.

Frogger is mostly updated - just need to update spells.

Also, should I create a separate alias for my companion Piney? I'll work on it tomorrow.

Hasslo sighs. "This place... we need to eliminate all the ogres. What they've done is pure evil.". The dwarf sulks after the others, barely lifting his head.

"How are you guys so ... chipper? Sorry to be a downer, but this place is gruesome.".

Hasslo just can't get out of his funk. Maybe slaying a few more ogres will make him forget the desecration of the Black Arrows. But who knows.

"I'll follow you guys. I've never had a knack for large buildings like this - I'd probably get you guys lost if you followed me.". He does slightly smile.

"Lucky for you, you just need to know one word and not the whole language." She smiles weakly. "Here, I'll say the word in each of the four elemental languages. Repeat after me."

Jamila then teaches the group how to say the word 'balance' in Aquan, Auran, Ignan, then Terran.

"I'd rather not see an ogre with their pants down, thank you very much.". The image of a nude ogre is now burned into Hasslo's brain.

As the others prepare, Hasslo pulls out a wand and touches his chest with it. His legs feel a bit faster but the dwarf doesn't feel quite as stealthy or nimble as he watches Seamus do his thung.

Use Wand of Longstrider (48/50 charges)

The cultists look confused. "Yes, perhaps we could ally with you guys... but we need to talk to our leaders."

The cultists leave the Pathfinders and the group of you return back to the Grinning Pixie to find Calisro Benarry waiting with a few exhausted sailors. "We found these survivors of the shipwreck in Driftport."

She compares the notes of the sailors and what you guys found. "A mutiny! Ah, yes. And an anomaly. How unusual. We will send some experts to further study the anomaly."

Okay, that was the last part of the adventure! We're officially done. Will work on chronicles and get them out by the end of the day.

Primary Success Condition: Return to the Grinning Pixie with Jaheem's log.

Secondary Success Conditions: if you defeat or swear allegiance to the Tempest Monarch or if you convince the cultists from the Cult of the Eye to consider an alliance with the Society or the Concordance of Elements.

Hasslo's eyes light up at the mention of better gear and more power. 'Yes!' he thinks, but realizes that the others are too hasty to attack.

"Wait! We can talk this out...". He sighs, realizing his options are limited. With Lucrecia stuck in a corner and surrounded, Hasslo turns his attention to Vale.

"Please, stop Vale! We're friends."

Hasslo uses his weapons to knock Vale's battleaxe out of his hands.

Will use Disarm. Do not have Improved Disarm so provokes an AOO.

CMB to Disarm: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (19) + 13 = 32

Thanks for the intro! Have some family stuff to do this weekend, but will work on the character bar as soon as I have some free time. Chose the wrestler dedication and changed a few feats, but otherwise mostly the same! Wanted to differentiate myself a bit from Slick and Billy.

As for introductions, I'm very flexible on how you guys want to do it. I like Slick's idea that Osh was there all along.

Also, quick rules question. A deer animal barbarian's antlers have a 10ft reach and have the grapple trait. Does that mean that Osh can grapple 10 feet away with his antlers? Just want to make sure!

EDIT: If any of you have seen Toy Story, I'm basing Osh off of Bullseye.

The dragon is agender and uses they/them pronouns, just in case you're curious!

Hope you had a great vacation indeed!

Hey, just checking in! Give me a second to read up and post!

Cookie leans in, "My aunt Klarh works down at the docks. She may know more. She's one tough cookie, so to speak." He gives everyone a sly wink.

Cookie smiles at Yulau as she bets. "The house always wins, you know." He'll give her a wink.

The card game is tense. But in the end, Yulau manages to outbluff Cookie.

I'd give more flavor, but I'm terrible at poker and other betting games!

"Ah! Well, would you look at that.". Cookie slides Yulau back her 10 gp.

"So this Jamila you're looking for? Not sure if I know her. But word on the street is that the agents of the Duchess have been shaking down business and watering holes. The Sweet Tooth included. They probably hit up every bar in town before they started shaking down businesses. Whoever they were looking for must be real important to risk causing this much trouble."

He shrugs and holds out the deck of cards. "That's all I know. Anyone else want to play?"

You can play for fun, but he doesn't know anything more.

So I'm going on vacation starting tomorrow and deciding last minute not to bring my computer. So may not be able to get an update until I get back on Sunday. Sorry guys!

Will there be mammoths?
