Yeah, it looks like it wasn't bumped to active but I am glad I checked. If this is the end of the game, it has been great playing with all of you. GM Radiance, like Elise stated, I hope the infection wasn't too bad and that you have recovered but too busy to keep up with the game. And if you do ever find time, I will also rejoin where we left off or just plain chat. Until Swords Part! ~Anderlorn
I'm still around, happy to pick up when it is a good time. I am too!
GM Radiance, I hope the radio silence is not due to illness and that you are just slammed with work which can be no fun too depending on the work.
Happy Easter all!
As Nethan brings his owl closer to Al, he concentrates, then his eyes glow white for a quick low-light flash. "I can lead the way now if anything blocks our vision. When I a close my eyes, I have blindsight."
"I disagree, we should climb as high as we can go in a circle. That way, we no longer advance and try to ascend higher than any of the Wyverns and their riders. We may be either good to go on the ground or worse off? If there are any corrupted treants down there, we are not going to be safer than in the sky? In addition, if the are any clearings in the canopy, like that one, we can get attacked from above as well as on the ground while it appears that we only can be really attacked from the Wyvern riders up here? In addition, the higher we go, the faster our emergency dive will be if it turns out the skies are a truly a nightmare."
Glad to hear you are OK, sounds like your body is trying to tell not to work so much ... :-) Cisco was working one of my Computer Network Engineering colleagues so much and had him traveling everywhere. He quit Cisco and became a consultant. Now he can actually enjoy life instead sleeping on a plane every day or night.
Nethan looks for a hole but really does not find any below or on the same flight level, and thinks ...
Knowing that the an owl and a wyvern have the same flight speed but in the owls favor in maneuverability, and probably more so now unless the wyverns have improved flight and vision in their undeath. Nethan points straight up answering Al's question and looks around if everyone agrees before pointing the owl up for higher altitude.
After resting, Nethan has taken a new look. Nethan's stature has changed from bulky strength muscles to thinner cat like muscles. In addition, his clothing has changed to a Scarlett and Gold Robe. Nethan no longer carries any type of weapon but seems to carry something in his hand that is attached to thick leather lanyard which is also attached to Nethan's wrist. Lastly, Nethan's backpack and quiver are now join together on his back but he is no longer wearing the circlet and his crossbow seems to be missing. Currently Nethan looks for a hole or something to help obfuscate their movement. It is obvious, that flesh will not fly higher than dead nor out endure.
A toast to Stephen Hawking's life on this Pi Day.
I do like the action economy like you can cast shield the same round as you cast another 1 or 2 action spell or flagship spell like magic missile for two APs for extra effects. Each spell will come with an action cast and the flagship spells will come with various features for how many actions you use for certain effects. Action economy also applies to other classes.
There may be certain spins but 5E has the return of character focus but better. I really like the 5E Cleric, still very effective at healing but can actually fight now depending on the focus you take. What I didn't like about 4E was its MMO feel. When I read the instructions, it was like reading the Lord of the Rings Online or Star Wars The Old Republic (Online) instruction menu.
I agree Tazo, it took me a bit to find how to get to it quickly without favorites. Not very user interface friendly.
Welcome back from your hectic schedule (knock on wood). 5E would be OK but not 4E.
Let's see what they do but it will probably be a while before everything is migrated to 2nd?
I also agree with Amelia's answer on if it is ok with you GM Radiance. You need to be happy with whatever pace you set and extra work you do for us.
My other game is an even more slow burn and I am also not going anywhere. I check every day for updates and if there are none, I continue to migrate my highest level character from 2nd Edition to Path Finder. And yeah, what is up, or should I say down, with Paizo lately? Another thing, I was going to role play Nethan's transformation but due to time, maybe I should just fast forward that along and summarize personal and group preparations? LOL, and welcome to Enterprise/Real World IT. I have a vendor that wants to do happy hour tonight and I will not be able to make it. Maybe if it was closer to home or there was better public transit like most places outside of the US I would but after drinking, I still have a 45 min to 1 hour car commute.
I don't think it keeps us logged any longer like it used to unless that has changed again?
Nethan adds "That is, do you have time later?"
Nethan stores the bounty in his bag of holding for safer keeping and turns back to the Chief, "Chieftain, sorry for one more disruption, it is my understanding you know black colour magic? Do you have time to see if I qualify for more understanding or will that take too long? Also, who would I talk to add my crossbow to the conduit weapon calling feature?
Unless I missed something, the light crossbow (mundane) is still in my inventory. Just never had to use it yet. Also, Incanters can use all simple weapons. Like everyone else, just trying to make Nethan unique.
GM Radiance, Is there a way in town for Nethan to be able to recall his crossbow via the conduit?
Nethan nod bows, "Thank you Chieftain for the continuing hospitality. We have some preparations that we need to make which our bounty will come in handy and then rest until it is time to go or when the night is at its approximate darkest." Nethan looks to the group, "Shall we get a hotel room to divvy up coin for equipment or do you want to take turns with the combine sack like last time?"
Planar shifting too?
Nethan bows as he takes the bounty, "Thank you Chief Sarangeral, we will gear up and put it to good use"
Nethan shrugs, "Unless we are dealing with other night flying creatures or flying creatures that can see at night, I don't think anything can see and hear a silent owl flying high?"
Nethan looks back, "Chief Sarangeral, we killed two siphons but we don't have the stones as evidence because we needed one of the stones to use on a second siphon for a task we needed to accomplish and the first siphon stone was destroyed in the process. We killed the second siphon in the middle of the task process but we could not collect the stone as evidence from the second siphon. If you feel we still deserve the bounty, we would be grateful but we can not provide evidence that we killed the two hence the reason for inconsistency. As for the summit, how long do you think we have to get there?"
Happy New Year!
Nethan looks at the runner, "Chieftain, please call back the runner? We have not killed any more siphons since the last two but we plan on destroying more and/or modifying their behavior if we can like siphoning undead instead of Eldred or something other than eldred." Nethan than looks at the sisters, "We will have to see what we need to do to convince Zenikuta to follow unless one of my colleagues has an idea."
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to All!
Nethan nods, "Although colour magic, when it comes to Eldred, are more like colour souls. And I agree with The Gray, we need to try convince Zenikuta especially now! Once the Eldred army is on the move, it may be harder to stop them than if we can stop her at the summit and it will reduce the number of Eldred lost? Perhaps, we shouldn't combat the siphons now and fly there first thing tomorrow after we prepare? Then worry about the siphons as soon we have Zenikuta allied with us?
Nethan looks at the group, "Let's dispatched some siphons to and from meeting with Zenikuta. And during this time, we can speak with Tenzukia about a more permanent siphon solution we discussed earlier? If we figure out the solution earlier, we can apply it sooner so no more Eldred are lost to the siphons?" Nethan takes out the Bloodstone compass to see if it registers Zenikuta and not the other sisters.
Nethan was about to reply before Gray stepped in and eloquently replied, "Do not fret Chieftain Sarangeral this our fellow wizard friend who has been with us from the beginning and has metamorphosis like a butterfly into a new man taking on a new name. In fact, before we depart here, I will do the same for I feel a change in the wind. However I digress, and Gray has answered why we need to speak with Chieftain Zenikuta. It is for the sake of all Eldred and other civilizations. We will not harm her if she is an ally and if she is an enemy, she will become an ally." Nethan ends with a bow
When Chief Sarangeral address or meets Nethan's gaze to start a conversation, Nethan gives Chief Sarangeral a courtesy bow from the neck, "Chieftain Sarangeral, what is moving our way to be on battle alert? Is it something we can assist with? Also, by any chance, do you know where you may able to find the Eldred Leader Zenikuta?"
As the group enters the town, it appears that each member goes their separate ways or follows Nethan. Nethan nods to Elise, "Rest is definitely needed but before we rest, I have a few important questions for the Sarangeral" Nethan approaches Sarangeral and waits patently for his audience.
Parents are most important! I made modifications for the conduit. Next, Nethan has to figure out how to get more weapons in the Conduit. The crossbow would be nice to go in there too ... :-)
I thought I answered the legendary conduit question, yes you can have one and there can be multiple in them if you like. Some of them are meant to do that anyway. Though I'd prefer if you picked two weapons for the conduit and their bonuses would apply equally to them. (as in duplicates of each other just different weapons) Sorry if you did and I misunderstood you but I am good now. My two weapons will be the dagger and cestus so all damage types are covered AND they are both light so I can leverage Black Colour Magic abilities. I will fix this today and/or tomorrow, and post.
Sounds good Al or Gray or The Artist ... oops ... you are not Prince ... LOL. Just joking around and great character concept. GM Radiance, just in case the question was lost above, can Nethan have a Legendary Conduit and what will do to the store weapons?
Nethan nods, "That's what we need to find out and besides what if the aggressor is Zenikuta's tribe? We would have traveled all that way for nothing and may end poorly? Let's regroup and see what is going on before going on to our next task. Perhaps you are correct Uncle Al, we could just leap to Zenikuta's residence but it may also be bad?"
Nethan shakes his head, "I disagree Uncle Al, we should rest because I feel that "changes are in the wind", find out if or how we can help here because of what you said about fortifications, see if we can find a colour magic mentor which may further assist us in our endeavors, and discuss how we can poison siphons with Tenzukia help? Lastly, we still have 5,500 in remaining gold we can use to purchase supplies."
That looks right to me!
I broke out the options further to remind me of them, it is not in proper game format but Nethan/Anderlorn's reminder format, Options Broken Out ... :
. . Destruction: Destructive Blast 3d6 Ranged or melee touch attack deals 3d6 damage for (0) Spell Points,
Options Collapsed into True Game/Hero Lab Form ...:
1. . Destruction Sphere: Destructive Blast 3d6 Ranged or melee touch attack deals 3d6 damage for (0) Spell Points.
2base 9class 5feat = 16
I will Specialize in Black Colour Magic instead of Black/Yellow. Actually, the Shadow Puppet will come in handy for Nethan by debuffing an opponent and allowing +2 Flank. More for a rogue/trickster but it will help a Wizard too. Although, I probably can have it help Amelia from time to time? Ok for the spear What will a Legendary Conduit provide? Will it add the same Enhancement bonuses to all weapons called by it?
Yes, if my Tier 4 New Build is acceptable?
He did, he forgot to add in his Dex Bonus, +2/+2/+5 is the base for Arcanist at Level 6.
To add, thanks Gm Radiance for adding this! Major plot beats added to the list.
Can the conduit be made Legendary and will that effect every weapon manifested from it?
Is the Khekeret Spear going to become a weapon finesse weapon and remain martial or changed to simple like other spears?
