<p>For the trappings discussion, a lot of the treasure on the pirate island was meant to help with your career trappings. The trappings we should be short on currently are:</p>
<p>• Magda: only her guild license
<br />
• Axel: the magic book he found wasn't meant to be a grimoire for him, largely because I didn't know what choices you were going to make for his Wind. I'm planning to handle Axel's issues (need a wizard to teach him and a grimoire) in-game
<br />
• Calph: the pirates had everything he needs I think
<br />
• Zarine: she's still missing the horse-or-coach item, and the party can't budget for that. Since the campaign has been river-centric, both of those trappings are a little dubious. We could substitute something else in for that. There was some discussion about who the fine dress belonged to and so forth. I'm leaving it ambiguous on purpose, but Klara von Holgau (the ghost lady) was supposed to have been on her wedding barge when she was killed. It isn't necessarily her dress, but that's a solid possibility. If Zarine doesn't want to use the dress of a possibly-dead woman (even modified to no longer be a wedding gown) then she can probably trade it to the tailor she got a recommendation for instead of using the actual cloth.</p>

In a live game I'd probably roll as the GM so I didn't have chaotic player rolls all over the place, but it'd be a waste of time in a pbp environment.

<p>There is a wood elf community in Grunberg, but not an embassy. I looked up the town's entry again and Grunberg's industries are first in boat construction (something I'd forgotten) followed by trade. It's not a major political center, though. The one guy I brought up is the longest-settled wood elf in town who'd best be able to arrange your letter & answer your questions but there are others.</p>
<p>I'm not intending a Downtime right now, but the story could make space for one. Does the party want a Downtime? There'd be an opportunity to get some things done, but you'd need to deal with the Cash to Burn issue as well.</p>
<p>I'm possibly being a bit too coy in my last post. My intent here is that the party can choose which activity to focus on, kind of choose-your-own-adventure style. There won't be any huge negatives to not choosing an option. The options are:</p>
<p>1. Go to the Reiker Marshes, begin looking around & set up a base camp.
<br />
2. Investigate who is intruding into your affairs in Grunberg.
<br />
3. Go to Stimmigen and try to find out more about why the <i>Earl of Harwich</i> started behaving mysteriously before it disappeared.</p>
<p>The idea is whichever option you choose will take the party into wintertime, and we'll have a Downtime after. The Greater Reikland Trading Company will work on the two options not selected.</p>
<p>No problem if you will be busy for the next week. Take care of things!</p>For availability: go ahead and roll.

<p>You return to the Carved Crown in the evening, and the staff brings you a message from Albwin that Eloise Fischbein indicating that you can meet with her after breakfast in the morning.</p>
<p>The evening passes without incident, and you are able to refresh yourselves from your long journey. When breakfast is concluded, Albwin comes to fetch you and crosses the small courtyard between the inn and the Fischbein residence.</p>
<p>Inside, Albwin directs you to the meeting room that Axel & Magda have entered before. The young woman they saw before is waiting for them with a sour look on her face. That changes quickly when she sees Zarine. Eloise squeaks in surprise and jolts to her feet before giving a hurried curtsy to the group.</p>
<p><b>"Welcome to my home. It is a pleasure to be doing business with you this morning,"</b> she stammers.</p>
<p>You exchange pleasantries before eventually settling down to the conversation at hand. <span class=messageboard-ooc>I'll assume you tell Eloise something about your journey, but the events aren't directly relevant to your current enterprise.</span></p>
<p>Eloise gestures toward a set of documents on the table. <b>"These are my copies of the <i>Earl of Harwich's</i> shipping manifests. It took some time to cross reference the information with other branches of my brother's company, but we have a reasonable guess at where the <i>Earl of Harwich</i> went down now. In the end there isn't even much of a secret to it, though the clerks my brother assigned to the task were too dense to realize that the Grunberg Canal didn't exist four hundred years ago."</b> She sounds thoroughly vexed by the oversight. <b>"They kept trying to confirm with the office in Prieze and lamenting the lack of records remaining when the obvious solution is the Reiker Marshes."</b></p>
<p><b>"The area is largely avoided now, due to how much safer the Grunberg Canal is and after the efforts of Emperor Leopold to drain the swamplands failed so many times. Even the knights of Castle Reikguard avoid the place these days. Besides being remote and an excellent hiding place for the wreckers, the marshes were notorious for being a danger to shipping in earlier eras. It would be a surprise if the Redblade Lion <i>didn't</i> take the ship there. It's a treacherous place & the next passage the <i>Earl of Harwich</i> would have had to pass through after it was last seen at Grunberg."</b></p>
<p><b>"Of course, just knowing the area of the wreckage isn't enough to make a move to secure it. Without Master Fermahn's compass to point the way to the <i>Earl of Harwich</i>, you would need more than a little luck to find the ship and without my brother to organize the expedition, you'd be left to dredge up any salvage by hand. I don't see any way to complete the salvage until my brother returns from Middenheim."</b></p>
<p><b>"We do still have some time before winter hits to get some work done, however. One obvious task is to establish a base camp in the Reiker Marshes to supply the expedition next spring. Some scouting of the area would also help and, who knows, maybe one of you would run across the wreckage by chance?"</b></p>
<p><b>"Albwin also tells me that we have unsavory folk sniffing around the Carved Crown, and that is a concern. If one of our competitors has gotten wind of the salvage operation, we could end up in an ugly situation in the spring. They don't have the compass but we can't ignore the possibility that they seek to beat us to the wreckage or steal our finds before the company can profit from it. The whole operation could be called into question."</b></p>
<p><b>"All of that concerns matters of logistics and business competition, however. I am more interested in what the <i>Earl of Harwich</i> was carrying. The company must have had some reason for not filing the proper paperwork. Something they were carrying perhaps, or someone? My brother isn't interested since we'll know what the ship had when we recover it, he says, but there are more mysteries here than just where the ship went down."</b></p>We're likely not fully caught up with town stuff, but let's move along.

<p>Magda locates a physician in town who is able to direct her toward the guild establishment in Grunberg. The guild will assign her to a doctor to take a licensing exam within the next week. She can check back in tomorrow to find out more.</p>
<p>At the recommendation of the Greater Reikland Trading Company, Zarine and Hans visit a local fashionista named Otwin Nottebohm who agrees to look at her valuables at the rate of a shilling per piece. They tell her that the silver hair spike is worth 8 crowns and the flower-shaped brooch is worth 4 crowns. They seemed particularly impressed with the dress, which they say uses exceptionally fine materials. The fabric is a little worse for wear at this point, but they estimate that it should still be valued at twenty-five crowns. Otwin asks her if she intends to have it restored and taken in for her figure. If she wants, he could recommend a tailor in town whose skills would be a match for the finery. <span class=messageboard-ooc>Doing so would be expensive, but may increase the value of the dress. Is Zarine interested in using the dress herself?</span></p>
<p>Zarine isn't able to locate a embassy for Laurelorn Forest in Grunberg, but is able to trace down a wood elf that has set down roots in the area for the last few decades named Dhialitrun. Recognizing Zarine's family, he provides letter writing materials for her and assures her that he will see the letter delivered to their homeland at his next opportunity. As for the status of the island, Dhialitrun recommends that she determine which noble controls the land nearby and consult with them. He's sure that no Empire noble will simply surrender part of their fief, however, and recommends that she determine a way that it can be turned to their profit or a good use that will aid the noble somehow.</p>
<p>When Zarine consults with Dhailitrun about finding a Grey Wizard, the elf shrugs. <b>"That's a secretive lot. They'll likely find you before you locate them. If you want a member of their College to speak with you and you're willing to take some risks, I'd keep asking about them. They'll take note before long, I'm sure."</b></p>

<p>It's largely an issue of time. It takes time to train a wizard's apprentice to the point that they'd be let out of the Colleges of Magic. Years in a normal case, probably. We could skate around that some by saying that Axel is being trained 'in the field' rather than in the Colleges, but I'd still imagine in such a situation that the training wizard likely shouldn't let Axel run off on adventures by themselves.</p>
<p>We have a salvage operation that <i>could</i> wait (the <i>Earl of Harwich</i> hasn't been going anywhere for hundreds of years) but I don't see a good reason at this point why it <i>should</i> wait. Even if one of their shareholders (Axel) went missing into the Colleges for a while, I doubt that the Greater Reikland Trading Company would see that as a reason to stall the whole project.</p>
<p>Some possibilities come to mind:
<br />
• we ignore all in-world considerations and just handwave everything. I'm not a fan of this idea (or I wouldn't be writing this post I guess) but it's there.
<br />
• we could have Axel be trained 'in the field' and the training wizard accompanies the group. I've already established something that is believed to be on the <i>Earl of Harwich</i> that the Colleges of Magic would be interested in (alchemical silver—a made-up MacGuffin to get the compass to work) and so they could be motivated that way. The training wizard wouldn't be working under Zarine, so we'd be introducing a shared-power dynamic to the party.
<br />
• we could have Axel be trained by an elf through Zarine's contacts instead of by the Colleges of Magic. This would likely be viewed as a stopgap method—something to allow Axel to still move about freely while getting him at least some training so he doesn't continue to pose such a danger. In my current thinking, this wouldn't help Axel be any less illegal since he'd be working outside of the legal frameworks of the Empire.

• In theory we could have Axel play another character while Axel is trained, but that might be effectively retiring Axel, as I'm not sure whether the campaign will extend beyond recovery of the <i>Earl of Harwich</i>.</p>
<p>Outside of in-world considerations, I'm currently planning to have a plot relevant adventure and then some Downtime that would cover the winter season in-game. After that, we'd likely have the party actually go to find the <i>Earl of Harwich</i>. The Downtime is probably the most convenient moment to Axel do some wizardly training and if we do the adventure first, that will give him some xp to do it with.</p>
<p>The others can probably chime in, but mostly for Axel: how do you want this to go down?</p>About Axel getting some wizard training: it's slightly awkward right now due to a number of in-world considerations, any number of which we could choose to ignore.
It's largely an issue of time. It takes time to train a wizard's apprentice to the point that they'd be let out of the Colleges of Magic. Years in a normal case, probably. We could skate around that some by saying that Axel is being trained 'in the field' rather than in the Colleges, but I'd still imagine in such a situation that...GM Netherpongo (alias of Nathan Goodrich)2024-02-17T14:31:37ZRe: Forums: Play-by-Post: GM Netherpongo's Warhammer Fantasy GameplayGM Netherpongo (alias of Nathan Goodrich)https://paizo.com/campaigns/v5748p75ivl8y/gameplay&page=27#13472024-02-16T20:12:32Z2024-02-16T19:45:00Z<p>[Spoiler omitted]</p>

<p>You consult with Albwin again to help you locate the merchants you should speak to in town. Your first stop is at a general goods vendor that should be willing to buy some coal & the pirate armaments you collected. Wolfhard leads off in investigations but quickly finds that he had overestimated how much the coal is worth earlier and isn't able to obtain the price he wanted for it. He's still able to talk the merchant up some from the initial lower price and gets 9g 18/- for it. The merchant is more resistant to Wolfhard's entreaties for the pirate armaments due to the widely varied quality of the tack, but still agrees to pay another 12 crowns for the lot if you throw in the scrap metal knives.</p>
<p>Albwin is able to recommend a locksmith that might have some picks to sell for your chest, and they do have some lockpicks available to purchase for 15 shillings.</p>
<p>Albwin is also able to recommend an expert who should be able to evaluate the worth of the finery that you found. <span class=messageboard-ooc>This would include the rapier, wedding dress, hair spike set with emeralds & flower-shaped brooch</span></p>
<p>As you start to search for someone that can act for the Kemperbad Grain Exchange, Reinhard comes to you with a proposal. <b>"These military quartermasters are always looking to outfit their units. The ammunition you found was scheduled to go to the army up in Ubersreik, but they'd have never gotten it if you hadn't taken out those pirates, right? We should sell it to the riverwardens here in Grunberg. I bet the quartermaster would be amenable to looking the other way and we can likely make the sale for more than any finder's fee the Grain Exchange will grant you."</b></p>
<p><span class=messageboard-ooc>As a reminder, you agreed earlier to give Wolfhard a fifteen percent commission for his help in selling the goods above. At present, his fee for the coal & weapons would come to 3g 5/-. I assumed he got an assist for his Haggling above, which let me just do the rolls myself.</span></p>
<p><span class=messageboard-ooc>Reporting to the riverwarden about the pirates should be straightforward, but how much do you tell them?</span></p>

<p>The staff of the inn are sufficiently accustomed to seeing Axel & Magda, and they direct you toward a private table and ask you to wait.

<p>After hearing you out, Albwin pauses for a moment with a troubled expression. <b>”This is rather unfortunate.

Your group now includes those four along with Calph. Wolfhard & Margarite are asking if you can take them as far as Grunberg & you likely should bring Konrad Links with you as well.

<p>... but if we need to wait to do my stuff till we have downtime, we can. She can't really advance in the elven nobility without some word of favor from her parents/noble house I don't think.</p>
<p>EDIT: I do want to keep deadsight, but just can't afford it yet, and don't think we will be going after the pirates anytime soon, so I assume it will just sit there untriggered until some storyline thing where she realizes that she retains some of the ability. </blockquote><p>Yes, for those with access to it, Faded Deadsight can be purchased later—it doesn't have to be now.
<p>• Gossip & Ride are both basic skills, and so you don't need an advance in the skill at all to use them. You're only 1 skill point better.</p>
<p>• Melee isn't an advanced skill but it has a weird rider that you don't get the benefits of weapon features (like defensive) if you don't have an advance, so buying one advance there is doing something. See page 296.</p>
<p>• Language (Classical) & Lore (Local) are both advanced skills, so the one advance makes sense there. I'll note that Lore (Local) needs to have a locality chosen. Something like (Reikland) or (Ubersreik) or (Laurelorn Forests) or (The Empire). The narrower the scope is the less it will apply to but the more specific information you can get. Nothing in the book actually says this, but it also doesn't explain where things like Lore (Reikland) come from, otherwise.</p>
<p>• As a reminder, you don't necessarily have to take any advances in any of those skills to advance to your next career tier later. The rule is eight skills advanced up to the tier number (10 now), not all of them.</p>
<p>• I don't think we need to wait for Zarine to advance to the second tier of Noble without word from her family. Just like I was proposing with Axel above, she could be in the new career mechanically without formally having the social station. Kind of like lacking the trappings for her new career tier. It should be something she's working on getting accomplished though—not a bad plan for a Personal Ambition.</p>Zarine Brightbow wrote:--100 to move up from Noble:Scion to Noble:Noble in my career track (only 100, since the Scion one is complete, correct?)

Normally, this would refer to the boundaries and paths of the undead, but the skull's powers are close enough to that & are related to why you got Deadsight in the first place.
<p>If the goal was to see the ship from any meaningful distance, you'd need a lot of Success Levels on a Perception test, but with all of your eyesight-related talents you'd have more of a shot at it than I'm probably thinking of right now. Talent-based Success Level stacking can be scary.</p>
<p>It would be far easier up close or to examine the scene of an attack by the pirate ship after the fact. Track is an Advanced skill, but if you get an advance in that you could use it to track down the pirate ship once you come across its trail...that sort of thing. (Reminder: Track isn't in the Noble Career until tier 4 but you could always pay double rate for it or use the Training Endeavour during Downtime to buy many advances all at once to be good at it)</p>Zarine Brightbow wrote:So, question about whether the "faded" deadsight... if I take it (since I already have second sight, night vision, and acute senses (sight)), will it make a difference in being able to see the "invisible" pirate ship if we come across it?

<p>75 xp for playing the game
<br />
30 for defeating beastmen attacking the <i>Flatbottom</i>
<br />
20 for keeping the <i>Flatbottom</i> crew alive
<br />
10 for successfully negotiating with the crew of the <i>Flatbottom</i> after Axel revealed himself to be a witch
<br />
10 for activities in Stormdorf
<br />
20 for negotiating successfully with the spirits of the river and gaining Deadsight
<br />
10 for gathering information from the Oberhauser farmstead and finding the pirate island
<br />
25 for finding and destroying the Skull of Bloody Klaas
<br />
10 for the 'defeat' of the pirates
<br />
10 for rescuing Wolfhard and Margarite and keeping them alive
<br />
10 for rescuing Konrad Links
<br />
50 for completing a short-term party ambition
<br />
10 for recovering the diary of Meinard Links
<br />
Total: 290 experience</p>
<p>We'll also hit a Fortune refresh here, so fill up any Fortune you haven't used!</p>
<p>When we first encountered Deadsight while meeting the trapped river spirits the first time, I said that Deadsight was a 'for this scenario only' feature and didn't need to cost any experience. That's how the scenario reads, but it's also lame. So, for those who successfully received Deadsight during the adventure, you now have access to buy a new talent if you wish to keep a remnant of the power.</p>
<div class="messageboard-quotee">Quote:</div><blockquote><p><b>Faded Deadsight</b>
</p>
Max: 1
<br />
Tests: Any Test to detect the Wind of <i>Shyish</i>
<br />
Though the sight granted to you by the ghosts of the Teufel has largely faded, you can faintly discern the wind of <i>Shyish</i> and are especially sensitive to its attachment to the undead. With a Difficult (-10) Sight Test, you are able to see the hidden paths of the departed and to sense boundaries that might be hidden from others: even those that have the Sight.</blockquote><p>Explanation of Sight test: this is relying on page 233 of the Core book that explains how Second Sight works. The skill in question depends on the task at hand. Perception, Intuition & Track are called out.

<p>Some days pass peaceably as you clear away the remains of the pirate occupation, make some repairs, tend the gardens & otherwise straighten out the island settlement. The villagers from the Oberhauser farm row over to help when they can and offer to put you up for the nights in the farmstead. The building was formerly used as a river inn, so there are plenty of bedrooms available even with the large number of people. The farmstead has a flag they can run up on a pole to call for passing barges to stop. Any ships that come to them will want business, but should have cargo space available on their ship. No one asks about Hildegard.</p>
<p>The farmers do turn a cold shoulder on Konrad Links, however. While not mistreating the child, they obviously consider him connected with the pirate attack and Hildegard's death. At one point over the week, Wieland tells you to take the boy with you when you leave. <b>"I don't trust myself with him,"</b> he grumbles.</p>
<p>You also get to know the pair you rescued from the pirates as well. The woman introduces herself as Margarite de la Rochelle, a Brettonian. She has golden blonde hair and hazel eyes and tells you that she was bound northward for Kalegen where she had secured a position as an actress when her ship was attacked. She seems resigned to having lost her position due to the delays involved in the pirate attack, as her work was to start immediately and she was already late in arriving.</p>
<p>The man is Wolfhard Rothenstein, a middle-aged man with a Nuln accent with grey eyes and light brown hair. His ship was bound northward as well, heading to Middenheim on business. His cargo went down with the ship he and Margarite were on when they were attacked by Meinard Links. He seems obviously nervous about something and admits that without his cargo he won't be able to repay his creditors.</p>
<p>The night before you leave, the Oberhausers offer to hold a lavish (for their circumstances) dinner for everyone.</p>[Spoiler omitted]

<p>• Golembane Scarab (2500) - we wrote this down to give to Ghorsi, but he already has a neck item. This is nichey.
<br />
• Dull Grey Ioun Stone (25 each) fancy thing to put Everburning Torch on, but who cares? Unless we can get one Heightened. We all have Darkvision (or can get it in Ghorsi's case)
<br />
• +1 Adamantine Construct Bane Battleaxe (11,300) - transfer adamantine quality over to Tahlas's sword? He's likely better with any old greatsword even vs constructs except for the adamantine material
<br />
• Ring of Spell Knowledge II (6000) - I'm skeptical that we'd actually find this useful but am open to discussion

<p>My setting knowledge is not amazing with dwarves, so some of the following is provisional: just my starting ideas.</p>
<p>Thyrik's family worked as gemcrafters, both cutting the precious stones and setting them to finish the works of the accomplished dwarven smiths in the area, creating works of both exceptional workmanship and beauty. Thyrik was still young and only apprenticed with his family, but was proud of his family and their work. Their problems started when his grandfather made a contract with a Reikland company carelessly and lost their family business over the course of a decade. The final legal battle was especially bitter, and Thyrik's refusal to back down in the courthouse landed him a year in jail for contempt.</p>
<p>Prison only increased Thyrik's bitterness and refusal to acknowledge that he was in the wrong. He knows that if he returned to Clan Bryntok after release from prison, they will demand that he take the Slayer Oath for the disgrace of his family and his personal shame. So instead, when released from prison he left home instead. He found himself destitute without work or any clan resources to draw from and eventually took to threatening travellers for their money. So far, he hasn't needed to actually attack anyone: threats have been enough.</p>
<p><span class=messageboard-ooc>I usually go to a fantasy name generation site for Warhammer-specific names, but the dwarf names just looked wrong to me and didn't line up well with the naming conventions in the core book. So I got some inspiration from Total War Dawi general names instead.</span></p>Thyrik Kraggsnev of Clan Bryntok

If we end up with the funds left over after everyone is done, Leon could also use an upgrade of his Cloak of Resistance +1 for 3000.Leon Volens (alias of Nathan Goodrich)2023-04-25T12:09:29ZRe: Forums: Play-by-Post Discussion: GM Mauve's Cradle of Night (1e) DiscussionLeon Volens (alias of Nathan Goodrich)https://paizo.com/campaigns/v5748p75ivm78/discussion&page=8#3782023-04-24T13:57:58Z2023-04-24T13:57:58Z<p>My estimate based on the loot sheet:</p>

<p>Given the uncertainty, I'll just put out a wishlist.</p>
<p>Basic: I'll start with spell support rather than an item. Leon's AC is his most glaring shortage as a frontliner. If he could get a <i>Barkskin</i> (or two in a longer dungeon, possibly extended if we can foot that), that would help him out more than anything else he could reasonably expect to get here. If spell slots are short, I'd be happy to recommend the purchase of a <i>Pearl of Power II</i> and/or <i>Lesser Metamagic Rod of Extend Spell</i> to assist with that.</p>
<p>If that sort of spell support isn't available, Leon could pick up a <i>+1 Light Shield</i> or <i>+2 Light Shield</i> as an alternative. I don't think it would hugely impact his offensive performance. Heavy shields are hard to work in with spellcasting, which is why I don't suggest those.</p>
<p>If those purchases aren't needed or we still have money left the next best thing would be an upgrade for his <i>Cloak of Resistance +1</i>. An upgrade for his <i>+2 Shadow Full Plate</i> would be nice but I'm guessing will be out of range.</p>
<p>Anything beyond that (like sword, headband or belt upgrades) I highly suspect would be outside of budget.</p>For purchases, I'm not sure I am reading the loot spreadsheet correctly, either.

The other big thing I think I've flubbed along the way is crafting. Going off memory, I think the following statements are true:</p>
<p>• I had two days of non-travel crafting on the <i>Belt of Beast's Heritage</i> completed to give it +2 dex/con when we started on the Long Road.
<br />
• I finished the belt at or soon after the duergar camp where they asked us to go round up their slaves
<br />
• We've had a mix of travel and non-travel crafting days since then.</p>
<p>The current project is a +4 dex/con enhancement for the same belt, with a full upgrade value of 30,000 and a crafting value of 15,000.

<p><b>Sale amounts</b>: on review, it looks like I got very close to right with my earlier estimates for money & such. The one lacking thing was the <i>Bodywraps of Mighty Striking</i>, which sell for 1500g since we're assuming they are a +1 version (the book doesn't say). That puts at a final gold on hand total of 165,232g after the bulk item sale (before any individual sales happen but including the costs for the two <i>Goggles of Night</i>). The per-share total would then be 36,718 and the earlier estimate of 36,000 was basically correct.</p>
<p><b>Darby O'Gill</b>: your sales list above has recorded the sale of a <i>Scroll of Miracle</i>. I'm all but certain that is really a <i>Scroll of Tiny Miracle</i> that we found early on, a custom item for the campaign. If so, it sells for a lot less (187g for Tiny Miracle vs the 1912g you entered for a full Miracle scroll – I'm not sure if an actual <i>Scroll of Miracle</i> would have to include the normal material components which would make it much more expensive anyway) That price change technically puts you overlimit by a smidgen I think but not to a degree that is at all concerning.</p>
<p><b>Ainsel</b>: I really didn't follow the talk we had about your character's gold earlier. If you could post your stuff here, private message me here or send me an email, that would be great. I also need your Absalom purchases & sales.</p>
<p><b>Crafting talk</b>: I remembered while I was doing my bookwork that Tayse's current crafting project requires spells that she doesn't have as spells known. Currently she needs a single <i>Cat's Grace</i> & a single <i>Bull's Endurance</i> per day. If any of our prep-casters could handle those, it would be super great.</p>
<p>Additionally, her belt enchantment project (+2 Dex & +2 Con on her <i>Beastbond Belt</i>) is finishing up sooner than I'd been thinking. As of the end of our last sesssion, she needs four more day-ends to complete it and will be able to start working on something else. It'd be very fair to take requests from the group now...Darby & Ainsel haven't gotten anything Tayse-crafted yet as an example. If no one speaks up, I'll probably start working on a <i>Belt of Giant Strength</i> improvement for Ghorsi. (I guess this assumes that we converted much of our remaining gold into generic crafting components. I also need to confirm how much cash we had left after shopping) Almost anything in Wondrous Items is a possibility, though anything with a caster level over nine or other missing requirements would slow the work down a lot.</p>
<p><b>Stuff to Keep</b>: above, I made a list of items I thought we should keep. I think some of it is still unclaimed.
<br />
<i>Amulet of Natural Armor +2</i> – I recommended this to Darby, but he said he had one. If Ainsel takes this, I don't need to adjust any gold totals.
<br />
<i>Cloak of Resistance +3</i> – I gave this to Ghorsi. If anyone is still in need of a cloak like this instead, I'm able to bump funds around to adjust for it.
<br />
<i>Lesser Fog-Cutting Lenses</i> – I'm pretty sure Ainsel stopped using these earlier. If no one wants them, we can adjust the gold totals
<br />
<i>Pink Rhomboid Ioun Stone</i> – I think Darby took this
<br />
<i>Ring of Evasion</i> – Tahlas took this
<br />
<i>Seer's Tea</i> x3</p>
<p><b>Poisons Generally</b>: I didn't sell the poisons above, so I'm assuming we destroyed all of that stuff instead.</p>Revisions and Questions for Absalom Shopping:

<p>• first of all, Ghorsi can't use ioun stones at all, at least by a pfsd20 reference I saw. Require at least 3 intelligence, and arguably it says the user needs to 'release' the stone. There's a clause saying animals can't use them, though that might just be part of the intelligence requirement.</p>
<p>• we also should probably be a little bit more careful about the idea of using that constitution ioun stone at all. While they are rarely targeted, a creative bad guy can do so and the AC/hp/hardness of the stones are...not great. Losing charisma to a broken or stolen stone isn't <i>that</i> bad most of the time, but losing Constitution that way could kill you, at least in theory. This isn't a BIG risk. Most of the time, just a normal attack will do more damage than swiping a stone and if death is in the discussion you might be unconscious anyway. But belt-based Constitution is somewhat safer.</p>
<p>So Ghorsi won't be using that ioun stone anyway. I could imagine three options for Darby that go well with the discussion above:</p>
<p>• buy a +6 belt for Dexterity & take some amount of risk with the +2 Con ioun stone
<br />
• buy a +4 Dexterity/Constituation belt and don't use the ioun stone
<br />
• buy a +4 Dexterity belt and a Charisma ioun stone and use the Constitution ioun stone</p>I did a bit of digging around to be sure of things, and we need to make a change in this discussion:

Nothing I can do about that, but I'm correcting them the best I can based on the original sources. Any remaining or new errors should be pretty small.</p>
<p>[Spoiler omitted]</p>
<p>Summary (full value listed – we won't get this much for any category but valuables):
<br />
Weapons and Armor estimate: 12,450g
<br />
Poisons: 8000g
<br />
Valuables: 8960g
<br />
Magic Items I recommend we sell (double check me in the spoiler below. If I'm selling something you took or want, let me know): 204,420g
<br />
Magic Consumables I recommend we sell (this is tricky: some of these might have been distributed already. Spoilered below): 18,673g
<br />
Total if all sold normally (half for most categories & I'm leaving out poisons from this because they are bad): 126,731g
<br />
Current Cash on Hand: 49,001g</p>
<p>[Spoiler omitted]</p>
<p>[Spoiler omitted]</p>
<p>[Spoiler omitted]</p>
<p>If we do everything roughly like I think we should here & there aren't any surprises in the financial transactions, that will give us about 175,000g to play with. Minus 12,000g for crafting two sets of <i>Goggles of Night</i> down to 163,000. I'd suggest we divide that into 4.5 shares, with half a share going to Ghorsi. No shares seems too little and a full share seems too much.</p>
<p>Four & a half shares would be 36k for all player characters & 18k for Ghorsi. Very rough estimate. Remember to factor in anything you will be selling from your character's current gear.</p>
<p>After finishing the second <i>Goggles of Night</i>, I'm planning to start an enchantment on Tayse's belt. I can't just replace it with a normal belt & can't leave it behind for someone else to enchant since it lets me 'run' Ghorsi. I won't charge that cost to the party pool, but her crafting 'slot' will be busy for a while.</p>
<p>We could choose not to sell the poisons & just burn them. It wouldn't affect our total loot all that much.</p>OK, so while building a full list of post-Longshadow gear I found a variety of errors in the earlier posts.

<p><b>Background:</b> one of the many youth orphaned by the Goblinblood Wars in Isger, Jagen was taken in my an Asmodean monastery where he learned the proper way of the world: order through strength and authority. The failure of the Isger armies to protect Jagen's homeland was due to a lack of discipline. Though he aspired to become a Hellknight initially, the orphanage recognized his talents in subterfuge and broadened his training beyond the martial arts.</p>
<p>Jagen recently returned from a deployment to Andoran, where he was working to infiltrate the staff of a member of the People's Council. The existence of the Chelaxian spy ring was discovered, however, and Jagen withdrew with the remaining operatives.</p>
<p>Jagen's dedication to Cheliax is matched only by his ambition. An increase in station is the natural reward of merit, and he has no intention of allowing those of lesser talent and resolve to rule over him.</p>Character: Jagen Marvisian

<p>There are a bunch of consumables to divide up & a bunch of other scrolls that Tayse should be interested in, but I should negotiate over that with Joe since Wizards <i>love</i> scrolls. Tayse's <i>Mnemonic Vest</i> makes some of them way more interesting than they would otherwise be.</p>
<p>I'm also unsure whether Joe's character or Tayse should get the <i>Staff of Fire</i>, as it has different important applications for both of them. Tayse's spell selection is somewhat lacking in ways to directly deal damage & wizards could use some emergency throughput more than Sorcerers (by a little).</p>
<p>I haven't locked it in, but I'm probably taking Craft Wondrous Item with Tayse this level, so extra cash on hand should be somewhat devoted toward her future crafting. Take a look at what wondrous items your characters need upgrades for or new acquisitions. We should probably keep an eye on dungeon exploration equipment given that our adventure is pointing toward Kraggodan.</p>Sessions 24-30 Tayse Notes:

<p>Siete was hired to ferry her out, no questions asked. Did he know about the witch hunt? Did he care?</p>
<p>Because it gives an easy opportunity to get the party together it's probably still a solid idea to have you smuggle the girls when leaving Dieter's place. A Witch Hunter is in town...time to leave. That event is probably at least a few months (but maybe as much as two years) later. It would be the second time Siete was asked to smuggle this young girl (plus a new one). What does he think of that? Is it a coincidence? Maybe he suspects Marika of being a witch now, too!</p>
<p>The adventure isn't really a tale of being antagonistic toward the Church of Sigmar & Witch Hunters (at least long-term), so I'd caution against going down that road heavily...which is odd to say since my acceptance of the Witch career is prompting a lot of those angles.</p>I thought your suggestion was that Siete smuggled us out when leaving Dieter's place, so I didn't include your character earlier than that.

<p>Getting back to Aristea's background, I'd like to make some edits:</p>
<p>• drop the idea of having Aristea suspect her family of witchcraft. That doesn't mean they <i>aren't</i> actually witches of course, just that she doesn't suspect them of being so. No reason to have something dragging us back to an unnamed mining camp unless the GM wants to have it.</p>
<p>• I speculated that the camp captain might have left the area to pursue Witch Hunting. I'm thinking he isn't hunting for Aristea right now, having completely forgotten about her. That again leaves it up to our GM whether he ever pursues Aristea. He's probably the sort that would get suspicious of her if he ever saw her outside of the mining camp. She did leave a short while after his first ever execution, after all, and Sigmar doesn't believe in coincidences (according to him).</p>

I guess before I talk too much on coordinating background, I should have something available to coordinate with. The scribbles aren't all filled in yet, but I was thinking of something like this:</p>
<p><span class=messageboard-ooc>Most of what I'm writing below is sort of first draft. If someone wants to coordinate on background (or GM of course) and has ideas for edits beyond inserting their character into the story, I'm open to ideas.</span></p>
<p>Aristea grew up on the edge of a mining camp in the foothills of the Grey Mountains. Her mother was one of several women that would repair clothes, cook & do other odd jobs for the miners in the camp, mostly like camp followers for an army. Aristea is the youngest of five daughters.</p>
<p>When she was nearly of age (fourteen maybe), the local camp chief accused a person in camp of being a witch. Being on the edges of civilization in the first place, the mining camp went through a traditional mob execution. Aristea went to witness the miners burn the witch, caught up in the same terror-fueled fervor as the mob. That all ended when the witch looked into the eyes of the young girl. Suddenly Aristea knew: the person was indeed a witch, and so was she.</p>
<p>Terrified and disgusted with herself, Aristea tried to bury her new realization, but found her formative magical talents impossible to suppress. Even without meaning to, things would happen...strange things she couldn't explain any other way. She fled home before others could learn the truth and eventually was brought in by a hedge witch named Dieter Hartmann who taught her just enough so that she likely wouldn't kill herself too quickly before sending her away.</p>
<p>I have an idea that the camp chief mentioned above became a zealot and left to become a Witch Hunter. He may have suspicions about Aristea (or maybe just anyone) and isn't the type to let legalities get in the way of his righteous cause.</p>
<p>One thing I really want but don't have a good answer for yet is a reason why Aristea doesn't just turn herself into the Colleges of Magic immediately. I considered having her long-term be opposed to that future but frankly the downsides of witchery are just really extreme & I'll probably have to either go Wizard or abandon magical traditions altogether. I don't think this is the sort of campaign to be hiding from the Church of Sigmar on an ongoing basis. But when the safest & obvious solution to her plight is to enter the Colleges, why doesn't she? Why <i>can't</i> she? One potential answer I'm playing with is that she suspects her mother and possibly her sisters might also be witches—being found out might cast suspicion on them even if they aren't. I'm not sure how I'd resolve that without planning for some tragedies down the line, though.</p>
<p>For her Motivation, one thing I keep swinging back to is Glory. That seems mostly counterproductive for a Witch, but having a Motivation at cross-purposes with your current needs sounds kind of fun.</p>Sounds good to me.

That wouldn't necessarily imply that your character would know about Aristea being a witch.</p>
<p>If anyone isn't certain what I mean by that, a witch is simply an unsanctioned user of the Winds of Magic. All sanctioned users of the Winds are from the Colleges of Magic (the Wizard career). A witch faces a variety of threats if discovered, from being executed by a mob or witch hunter to being forced into the Colleges of Magic.</p>
<p>So it's a complicated career to cooperate with. Even if we don't cooperate on backgrounds, the party would sooner or later have to deal with what they think about a rogue magic user among their comrades. Even if everyone is 'fine' with it in-game, there's also the possibility of causing a Mishap down the road, and there's no telling what that would result in. (I wouldn't blame our GM if they didn't want to deal with it, though Wizards have that same problem)</p>
<p>It does not at all mean the character is evil. Continuing down the Career will sooner or later mean that the warlock is flirting knowingly with the Dark Powers at a minimum though. I'm not thinking I'd want to go that path.</p>Is anyone interested in cooperation on our backgrounds? That wouldn't necessarily imply that your character would know about Aristea being a witch.

<p><b>Success and Failure, Winning and Losing:</b></p>
<p>Success on a test (and conversely failure) has a specific meaning in this game. Success on a test simply means that you rolled a number equal to or less than your ability in that test. So on an Average (+20) Perception Test with a character skill of Perception of 34, rolling a 54 or lower succeeds and a 55 or higher fails.</p>
<p>Succeeding means you 'won' for Simple Tests with a yes or no answer. Dramatic Tests can succeed but not succeed enough to give you everything you want, but you have mostly 'won' if you succeed on one of those. The most obvious time when success/failure diverges meaningfully from win/loss is on Opposed Tests. If you fail on an Opposed Test, your opponent might fail even worse (by Success Level or SL) and you end up still 'winning' the Test. Success is a comparison of the dice vs a target value while winning & losing is determined by comparing Success Levels. They are related, but are determined in completely different ways.</p>
<p>The important thing to remember is that 'successful' Tests have this specific meaning throughout the books and it ends up mattering a lot.</p>
<p><b>Reading Talent entries:</b></p>
<p>The 'Tests:' entry is one place where the success/failure concept outlined below is important. The key is the sidebar on page 132. Some Talents are all about their text. Coolheaded for instance lacks a Tests entry and only does what the Talent says. Conversely we can look at Dealmaker. The text of that entry says that you can modify the price of a Haggle in your favor by 10%. That isn't bad by itself. But Haggle is an Opposed Test vs the other merchant. If a player has three ranks in the Dealmaker Talent and a Haggle skill of 42, their result on a roll of 48 is +0 SL (failure). If they rolled a 41 however, they succeeded and the Tests entry applies. Their result is +3 SL (success) and they are much more likely to win. Pay attention to the existence of Tests entries on Talents: they aren't just about what sort of Tests the Talent might be useful on.</p>
<p><b>Extra Points:</b></p>
<p>During character creation, all races get some amount of Extra Points, but it isn't quite as obvious what those are for. Extra Points can be assigned to one of two things, both of which are very powerful: Fate and Resilience. Be sure to spend them.</p>
<p><b>Fate & Resilience (with a note on Motivation):</b></p>
<p>All of this is explained on page 170, but our tables have tended to get a lot of questions about it anyway. So here we go:</p>
<p><b>Fate</b> can be spent on some big things: not dying when you otherwise would is a big headliner. You can also spend a point of Fate to completely negate an attack or effect against you. While you can (rarely) obtain more Fate however, it never replenishes. So it should only be spent in dire straits.</p>
<p><b>Fortune</b> conversely can be used frequently. A character's maximum Fortune is (usually) just their number of Fate points. Fortune allows a character to reroll a failed Test, to add +1 SL to a Test after it is rolled or to choose their place in Initiative. Fortune replenishes at the end of each session, which is a weird concept in a play-by-post game. Mostly whenever the GM says it replenishes. It gets spent fairly often because it comes back easily.</p>
<p><b>Resilience</b> is similar to Fate in that it never replenishes and you will only rarely gain a new point of Resilience. It also has big effects. You can choose not to develop a rolled mutation when you otherwise would mutate (very bad) or you can simply just choose to succeed (and win) on a Test, even to the point of choosing to inflict a Critical Wound. Spend this wisely.</p>
<p><b>Resolve</b> has a relationship to Resilience that is similar to the relationship between Fortune & Fate. Your maximum Resolve is your Resilience (usually). It does smaller things than Resilience and can be replenished rather than being spent forever when it is used. It replenishes much differently than Fortune though. When the GM determines that your character has acted according to their Motivation, you can regain a point of Resolve. Thus it is important to choose a Motivation that you can imagine coming up at least semi-regularly in play. A Motivation of 'Save my family' will be of no help in an adventure that does not feature family members and is better used as an Ambition (short or long term) than a Motivation. Spending Resolve allows you to remove a Condition (which is a list of specific things, not all bad things), to be immune to Psychology for 1 round or to ignore the effect of a Critical Hit for 1 round.</p>
<p>Taken together, these resources are extremely important to making the game be not <i>as</i> deadly as its reputation. It also helps some to balance out the insane characteristics that dwarves and elves get: they are better at (almost) everything you might do, but if they roll bad elves in particular are much more likely to just be stuck with it than humans.</p>At the risk of overstepping, here are a few things I've picked up while playing & running this WFRP edition that are good to understand during character creation.

<p>Can you tell me what I can get? </blockquote><p>I can help there some. The short answer is that buying a row of throwing daggers is probably outside of your budget right now. But let's do the numbers.
<p>Money is denominated in a couple of ways in the game world, but the book method is consistent if not very straightforward. The notation goes like this:</p>
<p>X GC = X gold coins, the biggest denomination
<br />
Y/Z = Y silver coins and Z brass coins</p>
<p>A full uneven cost could be something like 23 GC 14/11, or 23 gold coins, 14 silver coins and 11 brass coins.</p>
<p>Other names for the coins the book uses are:
<br />
gold coins = crowns
<br />
silver coins = shillings
<br />
brass coins = pennies</p>
<p>The conversion rate is:
<br />
1 GC = 20 silver (or 1 GC = 20/-)
<br />
1 silver = 12 brass (or 1/- = 0/12)
<br />
1 GC = 240 brass</p>
<p>The cost of a throwing knife is 18/-, which is 18 silver and zero brass, which is nearly a gold coin. That's hard for a lot of starting characters to afford, but not unrealistic if you landed a starting career in Silver 3 or above.</p>
<p>Weapons in general are pretty expensive. It's very common for people to want a bow early on, but if you don't start with one in your trappings it's generally out of reach for a while since they start at 3 GC or so. Haggling could maybe bring that down, but not by a ton.</p>
<p>This is all very common. You don't necessarily start decked out in full adventuring kit in this game. I think my Witch will have a dagger and feel lucky to own something that fancy with her Brass 1 career.</p>CucumberTree wrote:I don't understand the cost of weapons in the book.

<p>I think that's all of the rolling. I'll try to pull the rest together today.</p>I had been holding off on this one since I'd already played through some of the proposed adventure. Assuming that isn't a problem with the GM I'll roll up though:
[dice=Species]1d100[/dice] - Human (Humans are great: +20 xp)
[dice=Career Roll 1]1d100[/dice] - Witch (Keep: +50 xp)
A witch isn't...what I'd been thinking of playing but that's interesting...

It's entirely possible that there might be inaccuracies but this was how I remembered it at the time:</p>
<div class="messageboard-quotee">Quote:</div><blockquote><p>So funny story from a home game on Tuesday. The adventure we were in called for a verbal duel & although our party wasn't very well built for those, we were doing very well. We were up 7 damage taken to 0 (our Determination was 11...I don't know what theirs was) when we lost an exchange and took our first Determination damage. We decided to open up the next exchange with our Ranger on a skill he wasn't great on fully intending to bait the opponent team into countering us and upping the ante for more damage when we (eventually) won. The ranger rolled like...a 7 which was laughably bad at our character level of 9, but we chose to up the ante for that exchange anyway. The opponent countered with an Emotional Appeal of 20, raising the ante to 3. We countered with Baiting, getting a 34 & raising the ante to 4.</p>
<p>At that point, we thought we had the exchange in the bag, but our GM tried to counter the baiting with...I think it was Rhetoric? Which immediately led us to believe that the enemy team couldn't take the Determination hit of 4. We were feeling confident in our 34, but they countered with 36!</p>
<p>Then I started getting worried. We'd take 5 Determination damage if we conceded, but we looked at what we could do for our best roll, and it was my Sorcerer with Wit (Bluff), taking the +2 for extra risk. If we failed, we'd take 7 Determination damage but we had a bunch of Edge saved up. I needed a 14 on the die to counter & we had something like 4 rerolls, so we went for it.</p>
<p>My first roll was a natural 20, raising the ante to 7 and establishing a counter target of 43. The GM went for it again (confirming our earlier hypothesis that they couldn't take the hit anyway) and tried to counter with Red Herring with the +4 bonus to reset the entire exchange. They rolled a natural 10 first, then used an Edge to reroll a natural 18. That made us really nervous, but apparently it still wasn't enough and they took 8 Determination damage, ending the verbal duel.</blockquote><p>When I mentioned this experience to the group tonight, Tom clarified that the opposing team had 1 Determination left when the last exchange began, so our baiting strategy was over the top. Fun anyway!Here's a summary I gave of our verbal duel to someone shortly after the event. It's entirely possible that there might be inaccuracies but this was how I remembered it at the time:

I don't think Landolf would have been actively trying to listen into the conversation above.Darkest Doomed (alias of Nathan Goodrich)2021-12-23T14:56:02ZRe: Forums: Play-by-Post Discussion: Wrath of the Righteous- Team 2 DiscussionNathan Goodrichhttps://paizo.com/campaigns/v5748p75ivm3x/discussion#192021-12-22T03:50:01Z2021-12-22T03:12:59Z<p>Hi everyone.</p>
<p>I got the message from Crusade earlier today. I'm catching up on the gameplay thread now and I'll need to set up a new alias for my character. I'm not sure yet whether I'll make a separate alias for Karogo.</p>
<p>In recruitment, GM of the Crusade was saying that we'll be pretending that my character was in Aerianna's spot the whole time. Fortunately, my Gameplay read so far suggests that Tessaviri wouldn't have done things terribly differently.</p>
<p>For GM of the Crusade: do you have any preferences about running animal companions in combat? My best reading of the rules is that the GM runs them, but I'm usually in the camp of not dumping more work on the GM. In PFS play, I let the players control them but reserved the right to edit their actions if they were doing more than the companion would know how given the trick instructions.</p>
<p>What I'm used to outside of pbp is separate initiatives, with the companion typically on a default of Defend its master. Since Tessaviri is frontline character, that's probably enough to get her wolf involved in fighting but if any tricks need to be given, that happens on the master's turn. (In real-life play, I forget to actually do the commanding a LOT. Hopefully its fine to do a retcon command on Karogo's turn if I forget on Tessaviri's).</p>
<p>•</p>
<p>Also for GM of the Crusade: we aren't there <i>yet</i> but the Divine Hunter archetype will eventually be giving Tessaviri's animal companion the Celestial template, assuming we avoid any major disasters. There isn't any rider on the archetype that allows her to cast spells on her companion without forcing through spell resistance normally, so by RAW she'll have to deal with it. I assume that having the spell resistance also means that the companion will know how to take it down as a standard action briefly if asked to, but there's no rules about that anywhere that I can see.</p>
<p>It's also not 100% clear what value the companion's spell resistance should be. The Celestial template awards spell resistance based on the creature's Challenge Rating, but companions don't have one of those. Companion HD or the druid-equivalent character level are two obvious choices.</p>
<p>I'm fine with a ruling that Tessaviri will have to push through Karogo's (eventual) spell resistance normally if that's what you decide. Thankfully, she gets a bit of help on that from being an elf. If this is the case, my preference is actually for the lower SR HD-based option above.</p>
<p>•</p>
<p>Edit: How should I handle HP for Karogo? Do I use the same full HP for first HD then half+1 thereafter model?</p>Hi everyone.

<p>Having the Party Ambitions be slightly off the side of the main story is possibly better though, like the one Valghaz suggested. Not just succeed, but succeed well sort of thing.</p>Happy Thanksgiving everyone! (belated)

<p>I did notice that your background didn't say much about Wrath of the Righteous or try to work your character into the starting location of Kenabres. That makes sense if you are submitting this character to multiple APs but most GMs request stuff like that when making their recruitment posts. I'd probably reserve a section of the background that you can modify to suit whatever game has come up. Possibly I'd change the Shudderwood starting location as well if the AP is going to happen a long way from the north.</p>
<p>The "cultivation of knowledge" quote stands out since it was repeated. At one point though you posited that Brother Kye was at least impatient with it, if I read the background right.

<p>First, a clarification: was this character made for the evil-party not-Wrath game recruitment? The entry explaining why your character is in jail makes me think so. It isn't too important if the recruitment was a bit different—they are related anyway. It would be good to be sure though.</p>
<p>Mechanically, I've seen someone try to mix barbarian with bard in a PFS game once at low level. It...did not work well. The barbarian rage & bard song couldn't be kept up at the same time at least the way it was being ruled at that table, although I think there is some rules ambiguity on that point (Lingering Song might have worked somewhat). Bloodrager and Skald might also work better together than Bard and Barbarian did that I'm not thinking of right now. Is there a particular synergy you are looking for from the combination of classes?</p>
<p>Moving to the background, one minor point is that I think you got the name of your character's human subtype wrong. Kellids are from the area nearby Sarkoris/Worldwound, but are definitely not blond & blue-eyed commonly. Amiri is our classic Kellid character. Everything else I saw in your background suggested that you were thinking of an Ulfen human subtype instead.</p>
<p>Aside from that, most of the background was about the weird religious fusion your character worships. You mentioned that your father was also a member of a Nocticulan cult. What was it like growing up in a demonic cult? Was this in the Land of the Linnorm Kings? Did Ragnar grow up in a smaller village (easier to maintain a cult way out there maybe)? If he grew up worshipping Nocticula, how did he decide to mix Gorum into his worship? Gorum is a fairly generic faith for the Linnorm Kingdoms where your character might have come from. It's a bit difficult to see a member of a demonic cult mixing back in with a culturally accepted faith rather than going from a culturally accepted faith into a demon-related heresy. Your character could definitely have done so, but how did he make that transition?</p>
<p>—————————————————————</p>
<p><b>Brother Kye:</b></p>
<p>I don't have time to look over your background stuff right now. I'll try to get to him soon. Your post talked about mechanics, but your build seems to be planned out in a good bit of detail already. Were you looking for any mechanical comments?</p>
<p>The little bit that I looked over for the background said something about growing up near the Shudderwood. That's a bit funny since it's something I had picked out for my elven character as well, though she left the area about a hundred years ago. Some of the Shudderwood is in the Worldwound region now. Is the Shudderwood your character grew up in the Ustalav half?</p>Ragnar:

Probably feedback is best in the form of questions rather than suggestions, although the other might be called for as well.</p>

We'd obviously need to wait & see how many show up. Once folks are here, we can either take turns talking about each character in turn and giving feedback or just kind of free-form it. I think the only real rule should be that you need to be giving said feedback on the characters of others.

As such, I have a suggestion for any interested: let's create a Discussion page to work on our various character backgrounds.

<p>I guess this could include mechanical build finessing as well, but I'm mostly interested in backgrounds right now.</p>

<p>Sarine hefts another piece of rubble and throws it off the tower onto the seaward side of the building as the party approaches. She begins to wave at you, but pulls her hand short as she realizes that only four returned from the Faceless Temple.</p>
<p>She climbs down the ladder in the tower's small courtyard to meet you. <b>"I'm sorry about Kassiani,"</b> she says, judging the essential part of the story from the group's somber mood.</p>
<p><b>"Two of our colonists have come out of whatever those things did to their minds...at least I think they have.

A few issues I've been mulling over though:</p>
<p>• My starting preference was to finish the current combat and then use any rescued people as a starting point for new PCs. But things would come out really weird if the party lost the fight. I don't <i>think</i> that would happen, but things can get weird when the party is outnumbered 8-3 and is trying to avoid killing (some of) their enemies. The actual chance that we'd have been able to free the colonists of control is pretty low, but that's what GM power is for.</p>
<p>• I typically prefer to skip over experience math and just hand out levels at milestones. These adventures are written in a freeform sort of style that would cause milestones to come up at awkward times though. So I'm leaning toward handing out experience normally, but I'd be willing to hear opinions on that.</p>
<p>• The hardest problem is what to do with treasure. The current party's treasure isn't in terrible shape, but that's before we reformat most of the party and start over. I'm not really wanting to let the new PCs start off with gear based on their Wealth by Level...the AP is balanced differently than most campaigns according to the books.</p>
<p>I haven't seen anything about Aurelian's <i>Ioun Rapier</i> in the AP. Do either of you know if there is a rules source for it?</p>
<p>I've considered rebooting the treasure entirely with the new party coming in. That would mean I'd need to go through the books and find all the treasure that the party could reasonably encounter in Books 1 & 2, involving some judgment calls. That would probably include some encounters we never did, such as perhaps the blood forest treasure I mentioned earlier. That one is easier to justify than some since the campaign says we did it...except that we didn't. It's weird. Any treasure we passed over probably wouldn't make the cut. Treasure we in fact did get would probably be handled just like we did in game.</p>
<p>That wouldn't mean that the party would just be stuck with whatever the books hand out, since the party is supposed to have some access to trading through supply ships as well as nearby aquatic cities via the locathahs we met. So you'd have some opportunity to shake things up.</p>
<p>I'd like feedback on this point specifically.</p>
<p>• When the AP first started, I was hoping that it would include some Kingmaker-lite sort of elements in terms of building up the colony and getting to see our home base expand. That book acknowledges some of that sort of thing going on, but it doesn't give much direct support for it. If you guys would prefer, I can slow down the plotting somewhat to allow for more in-colony downtime for the PCs to grow into colony leaders & such. That would probably include some opportunities for you to determine how the colony develops as it emerges from its defensive huddle. The scene change from Book 2 to Book 3 didn't allow for that at all, really, but I see some potential spacing we could use coming up.</p>I think I'm ready to get things moving for recruitment now.

<p>As far as identifying Faceless Stalkers goes, the suggestion the books make is to take advantage of their DR/piercing or slashing. They resist bludgeoning damage. More broadly, they have other limitations like not eating normal food & needing blood. They aren't the perfect mastermind imitators I had assumed they would be.

A few important items came up:</p>
<p>First, there is a detail about our party's participation in the colony that either never came up or was something I just missed. I think it would have impacted some of the roleplaying had I known about it, so I'll present it here.</p>
<div class="messageboard-quotee">Quote:</div><blockquote>The individual colonists each have their own motivations for joining the colony, but certain incentives and potential rewards appeal to just about anyone. If the Bountiful Venture Company successfully exports goods from Ancorato, each settler in the first few groups of colonists is entitled to a small share of the profits. This occurs only after the initial costs of the settlement are recouped, which may take years. Additionally, these early settlers receive a land grant once the colony becomes self-sufficient. These benefits serve to make early settlers feel invested in the venture while motivating them to work hard to quickly build an infrastructure for future settlers and industry.</blockquote><p>Additionally, there are some encounters in Book II that we never did for some reason. One short encounter was entirely missed that is next to a landmark that our characters very probably should have seen. The blood forest back on Ancorato was kind of handwaved away, but it was several encounters long. We also didn't do a set of encounters on the north side of Ancorato. I'm thinking our GM at the time decided that we didn't notice anything there, so I can't say that they were wrong to have us miss them.
<p>It did cause us to miss some treasure, though. As one example, there is an item in the blood forest that Sarine would have <i>very</i> much wanted to have.</p>
<p>In a very broad sense, the book suggests some ways that people can be determined to not be Faceless Stalkers. We probably could have figured those methods out by now. The method our party hit upon somehow is a difference in the color of blood, but the book makes no mention of that.</p>
<p>I've also caught up with where the party is at in Book 3. Our group's proclivity to go immediately after missing colonists is still hurting us some, but I think I'm more or less up to speed on how things have happened so far in that book.</p>
<p>Tettia & Prim were both mostly out of spell power at that point in the fight, so it might not be crazy to have us finish up that fight before we do any further recruitment.</p>A small update: I've skimmed through books 1 & 2 so far to make sure I understood what happened there.

<p>The one thing we've done in the campaign that I'm not at all sure I want to continue is the relics. I don't have the War for the Crown rules for them, and they were applied inconsistently (from my not-knowing-how-they-work perspective) anyway. I'm hoping that won't mean taking away Aurelian's rapier but just putting it onto a normal track of progression instead. That will be easier to justify if in its current state it is just an item the party could possibly have found along the way. It <i>seems</i> like the base <i>Ioun Rapier</i> is probably from this AP, but I don't know that yet.</p>Let me take a week to get the AP and do some reading, then.

The other two scenarios are 1-5 and should fit better.

<p>Yvonne probably won't be with the party much when they intend to go into danger, as she isn't built for combat really. The skills she can most contribute to the party are probably Drive & Evaluate, as well as assists in some other skills like Haggle. Yvonne has Read/Write due to a lucky roll during character creation. She's pretty good at Stealth & although I don't really mean to use her in that capacity we'll have to see how things go. She has an interesting Talent in Well-prepared, which allows her to retroactively purchase small items under certain conditions.</p>

Prim, if it changes anything for your action, Sarine only got hurt on temporary hp. She's missing ~20 real hp, so the heal wouldn't be wasted but Sarine isn't doing badly at all.

DiscussionDirk Liestag (alias of Nathan Goodrich)https://paizo.com/campaigns/v5748p75ivl21/discussion&page=2#882020-06-13T15:57:58Z2020-06-13T15:55:47Z<p>That actually has to do with one of the house rules I'm considering for my game.</p>
<p>The rules for opposed checks state that after tying on SL, the next thing you check is who has the highest score. To me, the tens digit portion of who has the highest score was already rolled into the SL comparison. The change I'd consider is to have the highest ones digit win a tie.</p>
<p>Let's say your 52 skill is rolling vs an opponent's 70 skill. (Similar to Dirk's current situation). You roll 48 and your opponent rolls 63. You tie at +1 SL. Under the current rules, by my understanding, the opponent wins the tie because 70 > 52. That's weird to me, though, because the opponent already got plenty of benefit out of having a score in the 70s range...they got their +1 SL off a worse roll.</p>
<p>The house rule I'm considering would have your 2 beat out the opponent's 0. It's not going to come up very often, but Dirk is seeing that very situation twice in this one combat round...so it isn't never.</p>
<p>••</p>
<p>Also, there are a number of situations that care about 'success' vs 'failure' and the ones digit can matter to determine that as well. For instance, Adela has a Charm of 58 and has the Attractive talent. Both the Tests entry and the talent text require the test to be successful before they trigger.</p>
<p>So if Adela rolls 50, she'll get +1 SL instead of +0 due to her talent's Tests entry.</p>
<p>If she rolls 58, she'll get +8 SL due to the talent text (or maybe +9 if the Tests entry stacks with that).</p>
<p>If she rolls 59, she fails with +0 SL.</p>
<p>•••</p>
<p>None of those make the ones digit matter <i>enough</i> in my opinion. But it does matter.</p>That actually has to do with one of the house rules I'm considering for my game.
The rules for opposed checks state that after tying on SL, the next thing you check is who has the highest score. To me, the tens digit portion of who has the highest score was already rolled into the SL comparison. The change I'd consider is to have the highest ones digit win a tie.
Let's say your 52 skill is rolling vs an opponent's 70 skill. (Similar to Dirk's current situation). You roll 48 and your...Dirk Liestag (alias of Nathan Goodrich)2020-06-13T15:55:47ZRe: Forums: Play-by-Post: What's That Under Nuln?

<p>Not even close methinks with his Defence Roll vs My Attack, so won't list damage.</blockquote><p>Before I begin, I'll just say that I think the way that SL math works is weird. But it isn't hard to do once you get it. Anyway...
<p>Extended Endurance Test: for Dramatic Tests and Opposed Tests, we mostly ignore the units (ones position) die of both your skill and your die result. So Jarvey had a skill value of 50-20 = 30, or 3. His roll was 05, so the tens position is 0. We subtract the two values and get 3-0, or +3.</p>
<p>That would clear Jarvey's poison condition, and he wouldn't suffer from the additional -10 penalty on his next turn.</p>
<p>•••••••••</p>
<p>Dodge Test vs Skaven: Jarvey's effective skill here should be 46-10+10 (for Advantage you didn't count) = 46, or 4 versus his roll of 88, or 8. So 4-8 gives success levels of 4-8 = -4. The Skaven's roll of 60 skill vs 47 roll gives success levels of 6-4 = +2. So with this result, Jarvey would be hit for a total of +6 SL.</p>
<p>Given what we saw last turn, I'm expecting Jarvey to take +8 Skaven base damage +6 SL -4 Jarvey's Toughness Bonus = 10 Wounds. I'm not certain, but this may well involve another set of double Endurance checks as well, so Jarvey may end up being poisoned again. If he loses all his remaining Wounds, he may take a critical hit due to going down as well.</p>
<p>Even worse, the fact that your roll was an 88 means that Jarvey rolled a Fumble on his dodge (because the check is also a failure), and would be subject to the Oops table (I think).</p>
<p>You have some options if you want to avoid this. First, it looks like you have a Fortune point remaining. Spending that would allow you to reroll your Dodge check. You'd have something close to a 20% chance of rolling very low (01-19) and avoiding being hit altogether in this case.</p>
<p>You could even take a Corruption point willingly to call upon the Dark Powers and reroll again if the first Fortune reroll didn't work out. Given that Jarvey is taking Corruption from being stabbed as well, I'm not sure that idea is great.</p>
<p>After spending your Fortune, or instead of doing so, you could also choose to spend a Resilience point. In a normal campaign that's crazy expensive...that Resilience point and the Resolve point associated with it are gone forever. But it is also crazy powerful. By spending Resilience on a check you get to choose your die result and also are guaranteed to win by 1 SL if the check is Opposed. So you could choose to roll 11, meaning doubles on a successful check which would cause a defensive critical hit on your Skaven. The attack would also miss Jarvey altogether.</p>
<p>•••••••••</p>
<p>Jarvey's skill on his attack is 62-10 = 52 if we assume that he was hit by the Skaven and is still on his feet. His roll of 53 gives him an SL result of 5-5=0. The Skaven's defense roll was 60 skill+10 Advantage with a roll of 59, so 7-5 = +2. The Skaven would win, Jarvey would miss and the Skaven's Advantage would go up to +2.</p>
<p>That's assuming that Jarvey didn't win his Dodge check, though. What if he spent Fortune and/or Resilience and won his check above instead?</p>
<p>Jarvey's skill would then be 62 -10 fever +20 Advantage = 72 vs his roll of 53, so 7-5 = +2. The Skaven wouldn't have any Advantage in this scenario and so would have a skill of 60, giving a result of 6-5 = +1. Jarvey would win the Opposed check, shoot his opponent, do some damage & go up to +3 Advantage.</p>
<p>Unless I made a mistake somewhere. The math for any given check isn't too bad, but the math for a turn is complicated enough that forgetting something can change it all.</p>Jarvey seemed to be struggling with the SL math, so I thought I'd post here to try to help out.

GM, If Arillia takes a 5' step to the north, will she be both inside of Agata's shell and safe from opportunity attacks?</p>
<p>On a 2D plane it looks like Agata would give the Nightcrawler cover from her. It's often easier to target big things, though. How tall is the door between us and the Nightcrawler? Would it allow Arillia to target the Nightcrawler's upper squares and bypass cover concerns? I'd like to think that she would be able to hit touch AC fine, but we've had problems with that...</p>
<p>I vote we use the healing resource right away. HP damage is only coming from the Nightcrawler, and it comes in massive chunks. It isn't enough to recover from a hit, but it is enough to top us off and help make sure that we can survive one.</p>
<p>Edit: Also considering a <i>Fire Snake</i>. It isn't 100% clear which squares the shadows are in though. Can we clear that up?</p>OK, looking at damaging options. GM, If Arillia takes a 5' step to the north, will she be both inside of Agata's shell and safe from opportunity attacks?
On a 2D plane it looks like Agata would give the Nightcrawler cover from her. It's often easier to target big things, though. How tall is the door between us and the Nightcrawler? Would it allow Arillia to target the Nightcrawler's upper squares and bypass cover concerns? I'd like to think that she would be able to hit touch AC fine, but...Arillia Kaenath (alias of Nathan Goodrich)2020-05-11T13:42:42ZRe: Forums: Play-by-Post Discussion: Siege of Gallowspire - Champion 15-16 DiscussionArillia Kaenath (alias of Nathan Goodrich)https://paizo.com/campaigns/v5748p75ivkz2/discussion&page=9#4142020-05-11T04:22:53Z2020-05-11T04:22:53Z<p>One other idea: We could also just leave.

I looked at his feats and he can fire without provoking, but there's no apparent end to the number of shadows. Even if there were we can't assume that his Strength will hold out.</p>
<p>If Agata is going to stay up (and I'm not 100% sure about that...the GM seemed to put you REALLY deep in the negatives) we could retreat back into the anti-incorporeal shell. That's a position of high risk from the Nightcrawler, but we should be safe from the Shadows at least.</p>
<p>The other option we could take regardless of Agata's status is just to bail on the current room. Looking at Arillia's likely line of sight, I think she can get herself and Geatan far enough away from the Shadows that they wouldn't be able to attack us for at least one turn. The Nightcrawler is another matter, but with luck we might be able to take one hit.</p>
<p>That second option leaves the rest of the group deep in trouble from the Shadows, but I'm not sure that Arillia has a way to fix that.</p>
<p>She <i>could</i> also try to go for a maximum burn plan, but I'm not confident that would be effective. Her high-tier slots are limited, and her maximum output right now is probably <i>Empowered Fire Snake</i> into <i>Quickened Scorching Ray</i> (which she could do exactly once). The ray requires ranged attacks, though, and I'm not sure she can afford to take this many opportunity attacks from the Shadows (although her incorporeal touch AC isn't awful). If the <i>Fire Snake</i> was at all likely to clear out the shadows it might be worth it, but since it will clock in at half damage I'm skeptical of that.</p>
<p>One possible benefit of running far away from the group is that it's possible the Nightcrawler might come after us and <i>maybe</i> not be all that effective for one round, giving the rest of the group a break from that guy for a turn.</p>
<p>Regarding the <i>Control Undead</i> plan, this thing might be even higher CR than the reaper. I'm skeptical that Arillia's DC will be high enough, with or without misfortune. It certainly would be one way to try to win the fight in one go, though.</p>I think Arillia needs to get Geatan out of his current position.

<p>For example, if you sign an innocent looking contract to build a house and hidden in the fine print is "As part of this contract the signee agrees to allow the contractor 1 year within the signatory date the opportunity to sell the signee's soul to a devil," or the like, you give up your soul, potentially.</p>

It could just be an error, I could have missed where they covered that part in the scenario text I read or it could be that person A forced person B to sell their soul and the details aren't mentioned. That's okay.
<p>The only reason I asked is that the implication in the part I did read seemed to be that person A sold person B's soul with no real interaction with person B and it seemed wrong.

It depends on what the player in question wants to do and/or what they know about the nature of the campaign. Some other domains like Souls, Liberation and Sun are <b>stupidly</b> powerful if their niche comes up. While I generally try to encourage players to avoid considering themselves primary healers, the Healing domain is very strong at what it does as well.</p>
<p>Travel is probably at its strongest when the cleric is wearing heavy armor or non-mithral medium armor (going from 20' to 30' is way more important than going from 30' to 40') or when the party has insufficient mobility support from the arcane classes. If a party Wizard or Sorcerer has Fly & Dimension Door covered, it could end up looking somewhat anemic.</p>
<p>Broadly speaking, I try to find one domain that has good features (and hoepfully good spells) and one domain that has good spells (and hopefully good features).</p>
<p>Here's a list of good domains to look at off the top of my head: (• denotes that the domain assumes some non-trivial investment in Wisdom, + assumes a battle cleric build that can actually hit enemies)</p>
<p>Defense subdomain - most of the Protection domain sucks but having <i>Shield</i> & <i>Barkskin</i> as domain spells is phenomenal
<br />
Love subdomain• - the Adoration power is great and you pick up <i>Heroism</i>
<br />
Plant domain - more <i>Barkskin</i>. I almost put an • on this one to take better advantage of <i>Entangle</i>, but the domain powers are better for battle clerics. Take a look at the Growth subdomain as well.
<br />
Good domain - Touch of Good is a crazy ally buff
<br />
Healing domain - cure spells become actually good after you get Empowered heals. Still not good enough to do every round, but it doesn't feel like a waste of an action to do <i>Cure Moderate Wounds</i> anymore.
<br />
Luck domain - another crazy ally buff
<br />
Travel domain - discussed thoroughly in the rest of the thread
<br />
Frenzy subdomain+ - the correctly done version of both the Destruction domain and the Strength domain
<br />
Fire domain• - If you don't have an evoker of some sort, <i>Burning Hands</i> and <i>Fireball</i> will help to control swarms. If you do have an evoker-type around, throwing your <i>Fireball</i> at the same location they did can finish off many enemy groups.</p>Travel is the most generally applicable of the powerful domains and that probably wins it the title of "most powerful" but I hesitate to recommend it universally. It depends on what the player in question wants to do and/or what they know about the nature of the campaign. Some other domains like Souls, Liberation and Sun are stupidly powerful if their niche comes up.

<p>To use the above comparisons bestow cures slow is way more effective than a single target, touch spell, for a 50% reduction in combat effectiveness in many cases (creatures that rely on full attacks especially groups of them).

Perhaps unbearably so. What I'm trying to figure out is if anyone out there thinks differently. Perhaps I'm missing something.</p>
<p>• Practiced Diplomat is awful in my view. It gives a minimum result to a skill check of your choice, but for many of the skills the minimum provided is too low to be of any use. It would be a •very• dedicated member of the Court to get their minimum up to 17 in a time frame where that sort of skill check result was of any use for, say, Diplomacy. Knowledge (nobility) could perhaps work, but the same card encourages Court members to put points into that skill as they complete their goals.</p>
<p>• Advocate is similarly bad. I just don't make enough prestige point purchases to make this trait worthwhile. I could perhaps imagine someone purchasing a whole lot of vanities, but the savings wouldn't be extreme even then.</p>
<p>• Spymaster is pretty decent. If the whole party is having to make certain skill checks, this could help. But if you select Stealth, for instance, the heavy armor guys are still going to blow it 90% of the time even with a bonus. A better use might be to boost a party member that's good at a skill to make them even better. Overall, I consider Spymaster to be good, but not nearly good enough to be the only worthwhile reward on a faction card.</p>

We were fighting a group of orcs, including a wizard, a cleric and a pair of tweaked out warriors (22 strength at apl 2) with spiked chains. The casters weren't doing much, but the warriors were tearing through our party.</p>
<p>My sorcerer/paladin gish and my buddy's ranger were the only effective combatants left (a druid was riding around trying to keep everyone alive), but we found ourselves in a situation where my sorcerer/paladin was prone and unable to take another hit & our ranger was within the orc's threat range and unable to take another hit. (note: spiked chains were WAY more OP in 3.5) My turn was up, and the next in initiative was the orc fighting my ranger friend.</p>
<p>I tanked on what my action would be for a while. I could attack the orc standing over me at a penalty, but if I didn't kill it, I would die. So instead I cast defensively, passed my concentration check, passed my spell failure chance due to my chain shirt, and shot the orc threatening my ranger buddy with Magic Missile.</p>
<p>His orc went down. His turn came up and he killed my orc. We both stood up, laughed at the joke cleric & wizard, and defeated the encounter.</p>
<p>•••</p>
<p>Later, the same sorcerer/paladin gish character entered a running combat with multiple waves that kept us in combat for over 40 rounds. Early on, our Hexblade entered a 5' doorway where she was planning to fight a group of duergar. Our wizard decided it would be a great idea to cast Enlarge Person on them. A round later, our Hexblade's not-great armor class was completely shot due to being large size and squeezed in the doorway...probably something like AC 12 or 13.</p>
<p>Epic fail.</p>
<p>We defeated the dwarves in that room & healed the Hexblade, but ... yeah.</p>My story is actually from Living Greyhawk, but the 3.5 rules base is close enough.
