Mr. Gruff's page

Mr Gruff grumbles, "Minotaurs are not food."

and swings his axe at the pile of hungry rocks before trying to deal with the magic of the cauldron.

axe vs rock: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 7 + 1 = 25
slashing: 1d12 + 4 + 1 ⇒ (9) + 4 + 1 = 14

Arcana Disable vs Cauldron: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25

Mr Gruff draws their axe and heads forward, taking a chop at the rocks and trying to peek into the cauldron.

Axe vs Rocks: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (10) + 9 = 19
Skashing: 1d12 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11

Combat Assessment: Make a melee Strike. On a hit, you can immediately attempt a check to Recall Knowledge about the target. On a critical hit, you gain a +2 circumstance bonus to the check to Recall Knowledge. The target is temporarily immune to Combat Assessment for 1 day.

+5 Arcana, Crafting, Nature, Occultism, Religion, Society. Dubious Knowledge.

Placed Gruff.

Mr Gruff pulls out their kit, accecpts Valamar's help and works on it.

Medicine: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18

Mr Gruff nods and scractches the ground sheepishly with a hook. "I hate to bring up bad blood, but by chance has Kupyn done something to offend you recently, that we might be able to make make amends for?"

Mr Gruff shrugs and begins restacking logs.

Athletics: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16

Mr gruff nods to his companions "Well on on that. Lets look for FIVE SCALLION RINGS next."

Sense Motive: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 7 = 10

Mr. Gruff feigns stupidity and counts a bit on his finders "That's definitely too much. Which is the expensive part, the carrots or the celery?"

Mr. Gruff's belts out "FIVE SCALLION RINGS" a bit late and clearly off tune, but it's clear that he's trying.

Mr. Gruff adjusts their glasses and responds "T.. that sounds delicious, lets do it. How can we help?"

A massive Minotaur with heavy armor and a huge great axe clops up from behind.

They pull out a gnarly looking wooden case and open it up, to reveal a fairly thick pair of spectacles.

In a paradoxidly deep yet timid voice they introduce themselves and then ramble a bit. "Mr. Gruff here. I'm a monsterologist. Pathfinder Society seemed like a good way to learn more. I have to admit I'm a little nervous about my recent promotion to field agent, I mean I didn't even know how to properly wield a sword before I joined, but Mr. Farabellus put an axe in my hands and told me I was a natural. I'm sure it'll be a nice peaceful vacation here, even us new agents get a few days off."

Looks good. I see 26 now.

btw, Mr Gruff, is this #26? ;)

Should be. If you go to your organized play and Sessions Tab on the left under GM it'll show your top 10 by #. You can hit show more and get the rest alphabetically.

Although it's still showing you at 25 so it may only count quests as fractions or otherwise mess up the math, I wouldn't count on it for anything precise.

A pleasure as always and sheet received.

I've still got to figure out a better way to share the combat assessment info, especially once my skills start leveling up and becoming uneven, and remembering dubious knowledge which I keep forgetting.

Any suggestions I'm happy to hear.

Also, Froggy: There's a decent chance I'm running another pbp after the Quest (6) I'm GMing finishes. Anything in particular on your wish list?

Mr Gruff tries to speak the proper burial rites.

Religion: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (13) + 5 = 18

Then chops at the nearby hand on Howard with a big downward swing from this great axe.

The Choppening: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 14
slashing: 1d12 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

If that hits free RK at +5 (additional +2 if a crit)

Mr Gruff hacks at green repeatedly.

the choppening: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13
slashing: 1d12 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

more chop: 1d20 + 9 - 5 ⇒ (6) + 9 - 5 = 10
slashing: 1d12 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

Most chop: 1d20 + 9 - 10 ⇒ (12) + 9 - 10 = 11
slashing: 1d12 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Will use Combat assessment for the free RK (+2 on crit) until that hits, than swap to normal strikes.

Mr Gruff pushes past Shasta and lowers his axe on blue, trying to learn anything about it he might glimmer from its demise.

Axe vs Blue: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (15) + 9 = 24
slashing: 1d12 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

On a hit, you can immediately attempt a check to Recall Knowledge about the target. On a critical hit, you gain a +2 circumstance bonus to the check to Recall Knowledge. The target is temporarily immune to Combat Assessment for 1 day.
+5 on basically every Monster RK skill

If Blue hasn't been squished Mr Gruff will attack it again, otherwise he will assess Green.

More Axe: 1d2 + 9 - 5 ⇒ (1) + 9 - 5 = 5
More Slashing: 1d12 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Mr Gruff nods "Mr. Valsin really drilled it into us that adventuring with less than 4 or more than 6 was bad news."

Getting though 5ft corridors isn't the end of the world for Mr. Gruff, just difficult terrain.

Mr Gruff will examine the backpack "I wonder if this belongs to our missing person?"

Nature: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (12) + 5 = 17

Mr Gruff nods and whispers "I think I can do it."

Khagra extinguishes the light from his wayfinder and carefully approaches.

Survival: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15

hero point Survival: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21

Mr Gruff draws their axe as they explore, their wayfinder glowing as they do their best not to scrape their head and arms on the cavern walls.

No objections if Shasta wants to go first.

Mr Gruff will light up their Wayfinder.

Mr Gruff notes "I can see in the dark as well as in the light, but I don't mind turning my Wayfinder on, if other folks want light, like to see these tracks here."

Survival: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8

Mr. Gruff peers at the note from Fae though their spectacles and nods "Lets go below and look for Unzgrin. Beats watching Flood Road get... well... flooded."

A massive Minotaur with heavy armor and a huge great axe clops.

They pull out a gnarly looking case and open it up, to reveal a fairly thick pair of spectables.

In a paradoxidly deep yet timid voice they introduce themselves and then ramble a bit. "Mr. Gruff here. I'm a monsterologist. Pathfinder Society seemed like a good way to learn more. I have to admit I'm a little nervous about my promotion to field agent, I mean I didn't even know how to properly wield a sword before I joined, but Mr. Farabellus put an axe in my hands and told me I was a natural."

I have played this before. Have not GMed/read it, and don't think I remember it.

Your Macros/Map links aren't currently going anywhere.

Yarr.

Mr Gruff is generally happy to be splashed.

4 Glyphs and a Campaign Coin

Mr Gruff circles around, squeezing between boxes and making slow progress.

3x Stride.

Sorry to be slow, and out of town, with less access than expected.

Mr Gruff starts swinging, trying to take out white.

Frightened Combat Assessment vs White: 1d20 + 9 - 1 ⇒ (2) + 9 - 1 = 10
slashing: 1d12 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

More Combat/More Assessment: 1d20 + 9 - 5 - 1 ⇒ (6) + 9 - 5 - 1 = 9
slashing: 1d12 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

(Combat Assessment (Dubious Knowledge/+5(-1F) Society))

Mr Gruff then squeezes back to the east to make more room.

Mr Gruff squeaks between boxes and pillars, barely managing to make progress but getting to a bigger space a bit forward.

There Mr Gruff does his best to Take Cover from any incoming attacks.

Athletics: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 23

Mr Gruff takes the noisy path.

Mr Gruff is pretty good at tracking and the like.

Survival: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (14) + 5 = 19

Mr Gruff nods to Artemios and helps navigate as well.

Survival: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9

Taking advantage of their preparation Mr Gruff uses Edge to succeed.

Gruff keeps looking.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 7 + 1 = 19

Gruff scouts and looks around for potential defenses.

Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11

Scouting.

Mr Gruff shugs "I'm not super quiet, but quieter than you might expect. My vote is for scouting, but I'm happy with whatever we decide."

Mr Gruff shrugs "Minotaurs have lived on the Isle of Kortos just as long as Aroden's children. Classes at the Grand Lodge really need to get out more."

A massive Minotaur with heavy armor and a huge great axe clops in behind Ebiten.

They pull out a gnarly looking case and open it up, to reveal a fairly thick pair of spectacles.

In a paradoxical deep yet timid voice they introduce themselves and then ramble a bit. "Mr. Gruff here. I'm a monsterologist. Pathfinder Society seemed like a good way to learn more. I'm still a little nervous about my promotion to field agent, I mean I didn't even know how to properly wield a sword before I joined, but Mr. Farabellus put an axe in my hands and told me I was a natural."

Additionally, Mr Gruff nods and orders Tea as well.

Chronicle received. Thanks!

Mr Gruff circles around the dockhouse and sets up for a chop on red.

Combat Assessment vs Red FF: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (8) + 9 = 17
slashing: 1d12 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14

Free RK on a hit (+5 Arcana, Crafting, Nature, Occultism, Society). Also realized I had been forgetting to mention Dubious Knowledge to make all our lives more fun.

Stride, Stride, Combat Assesssment.

Gruff info = correct info.

Gruff continues to make use of his skill variety and tracks the cart.

Survival: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11

Not especially well however.

Gruff goes with the flow.

Society: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14

Mr Gruff goes chop.

chopping red FF: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (14) + 9 = 23
Slashing: 1d12 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

More Chop: 1d20 + 9 - 5 ⇒ (16) + 9 - 5 = 20
Slashing: 1d12 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12

Most Chop: 1d20 + 9 - 10 ⇒ (12) + 9 - 10 = 11
Slashing: 1d12 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11

AoO vs Blue: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (16) + 9 = 25
axe damage: 1d12 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
On the off chance that crits it will disrupt the throw.

Mr Gruff continues to chop at his foes, hoping to learn about them.

Combat Assessment vs Blue FF?: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (9) + 9 = 18
slashing: 1d12 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9
Free RK on Hit, +2 on Crit. Society +5

At some point Gruff pushes through the tents to get into melee with the next cultists, although will strike at blue if they are still up.

Combat Assement vs Blue or White?: 1d20 + 9 - 5 ⇒ (11) + 9 - 5 = 15
slashing: 1d12 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10
Free RK on Hit, +2 on Crit. Society +5

Mr Gruff takes a moment to polish his glasses before replacing them.

"Well, lets head on back and keep our eyes open for trouble."

Mr Gruff does their best to not get lost.

Survival to Sense Direction: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13

Before looking for Zarta.

Society: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10

Mr Gruff shakes his head and nods and then shakes his head again.
"Mostly things I can hit, trying to be broad though."
