Understand completely, GM! Take your time as you process things!

First off, I’d be happy to play in any game that you’d be nice enough to run, GM. But War of the Crown has always seemed like a great AP with a ton of role playing available in at least the first book. And that’s as far as I ever made it in PBP!
I’ve been having a great time trying PF2! I appreciate the GM for running this for us, so I’d be happy as heck to continue on in a different scenario!
Nox tries to keep the mental assault up on the alligator trying to incapacitate the beast with his Daze cantrip.
”Well that worked swimmingly, didn’t it,” Nox says as he moves 10’ closer to the door, planning to follow Laijiri through when the way is cleared next round.
Nox will wait for Lajiri to begin heading in before he piles in after.
”Ill keep the light for you, so long as you keep stabbing the bad guys with that nifty sword,” he responds. Im definitely keeping her on my good side, he thought to himself.
Have a good weekend, GM!
Nox smacks himself in his forehead. ”Oh yeah….remember that key we found from that guy at the front? I bet that’ll get us in,” he groaned as he looked through his satchel and passed it forward to the party members trying to pick the lock.
Nox laughed, despite the circumstances. ”Or we could just float here all night,” he giggled, waiting on Lajiri to force the lock.
Nox will be behind Daesra helping with the light, so the woman can get organized.
Nox uneasily hops down when they let him know that he could fit as well. ”The rest of you all need to find a way to get back there and support us, because you know that coward Lamm isn’t alone…”
Nox hands off the light source, knowing damn well that he’s not being the first one down this time. ”After you, milady,” Nox says with a flourish as he removes his top hat in a nice bow.
Nox hands off his deck of playing cards and his set of dice to one of the older children. ”Play some games until we get back. We won’t be long, then we will get you lot taken care of,” he says with a smile. He then turns to the rest of the group. ”Is there a safe way to look around down there? Could someone be lowered with a rope maybe?”
”I say we let the children take out all their anger on him. Serves him right if you ask me. But we’ve got bigger fish to fry so to speak,0 Nox says as he looks around for more trouble heading their way.
Nox keeps the mental assault up on the orc, trying to incapacitate the stubborn opponent with his Daze cantrip.
Nox again targets Giggles with his daze cantrip, hoping to get lucky and knock him out. ”Just stay down, big boy,” he calls out.
Nox again targets Giggles with his daze cantrip, hoping to get lucky and disable him.
Nox moves forward enough to get in range for his daze cantrip on Giggles.
Nox delays, not wanting that weird looking orc to split his head open. ”Go get him and I’m right behind you,” he whispers.
Nox is happy to spark up a torch and hold it for the group. He will be toward the back of the group, trying to avoid any more beatings about his head and shoulders.
”Nope! Learned my lesson last time! I’m not leading the group into any strange room anymore,” he says with a flourish!
”Remember we found a key. Betcha a copper that key opens the cabinet,” the gnome offers helpfully. He doesn’t take the time to read the scroll right now, as the group needed to be in and out relatively quickly.
I’ll only claim one of the healing potions, GM, so there is another one available.
Nox would offer to claim one of the minor healing potions and the disguise kit, if there are no objections.
”Thanks everyone. I’m going to have to remember to not be in the front line when violence occurs,” he says, more to himself than anyone else. Nox begins searching the bodies of the two men, hoping there was some gold or some useful trinket, to make the pain almost worth it. Nox gives extra thanks to Rienas for getting him out of immediate answer and to Morganne for the wonderful healing!
From my first fight, combat seems a bit more tactical in 2e. The extra hit points at first level definitely help, though!
Damage healed
Nox reached within his pouch and pulled his lesser exilir of life and chugs it down. Healing
Nox chooses to delay, not wanting to get involved into close range melee again.
I’d love to be away from that other pesky gnome, lol!
Nox casts Shield yet again and follows it up with a Daze spell against Yargin.
Rienas, as far as I go, please feel free to point out any mistakes or rules errors on my part. That’s the best way for me at least, to learn.
The gnome renews his shield spell for whatever minor protection it added. He then casts Electric arc at the closest two enemies to the group.
Desperate to get the dog away from him, Nox uses one action to cast shield, improving his defenses by one. He then casts Color Spray, striking as many enemies as possible with his arcane magics.
I appreciate this thread. As I said, I’m brand new to 2e and all this is very helpful!
Athletics check
Nox moves to the door and tries to pull it open, hoping the man didn’t have time to lock it back behind him. ”Get ready, here goes,” he yells as he tugs at the door.
Initiative ”Lijiri,get us inside, please,” the gnome quickly whispers as the man starts shutting the door. It can’t be this easy!
Nox stands behind those knocking at the door, wondering what exactly awaited them inside.
All right. Sounds like we have Consensus. Let’s get to it then.
Alight, let’s vote: 1. Charging through the front,
What does everyone say?
”What kind of distraction are you all thinking of? Are you thinking larger scale like a fire, or something more targeted to the building, like knocking on the front door and pretending to be lost?”
”I think that’s probably a good idea, too. Always know the game before you sit down and throw your money in the pot,” Nix nods. ”What do the rest of you think?”
”Should we wait and see if some of the crew leaves at some point this evening? If we’ve got to fight them, it seems it would be better to do it when he has as few helpers as possible,” the gnome whispers to the others.
”So, if you all don’t mind sharing, what did Lamm do to you to make you hate him so much?”
Nox looked around and noticed he wasn’t invited into either group. He figured it’d be best to let the front group scout things out and take care of any trouble. He smiled and began walking with the group in the rear.
