Thanks for running GM Tyranius. I now see what a friend said on how neat this adventure is...it really was a different feel than normal PF2 adventures. And thank you all for sticking with my unusual fighter build....I rarely ever build fighters (or soldiers in SF)..mainly because I don't normally find an idea I would think would be enjoyable. But I do think Koji is going to be a fun character. And not a normal build for a 2 handed fighter power attacker ;-)
Koji listens to the group as they explain what happened to their employer. He takes particular interest in the aspect of arcana or nature part...maybe realizing that he should look into getting a little more knowledge in subjects that were not taught to him. "As my friends say, it seemed that an other-world being was doing some kind of prank--though how dangerous some of those were, I think this being has malice in their thoughts. It was definitely an interesting night." And on hearing Yuan Wu mentioning a journal, Koji makes a mental note to buy one to start writing his own adventures into.
Walking to the school yard, Koji looks around and smiles a little. "My school yard was not so different. Makes me wonder if all cultures have a similar way to run off the energy of youth..."
Koji doesn't notice the sheet of paper until Yuan Wu picks it up. "Interesting. So this tree is where the students meet to probably tell secrets. I had something similar...but we would bury small items into the ground near the tree for our friends to find."
"I wonder why the snake imagery is popular?" Koji nods...."The Schoolyard works....that was where the statues moved....right? I wonder if this might be similar to the anatomy model moving. " With that thought, Koji shudders a little.
"Bobby has three oranges....wow. The students were right...the answers are often wrong." With that, Koji looks at the rest of the group, while idly fidgeting around with their kusarigama...they are not going to keep it stowed anymore. Just in case there are more constructs or monsters in this school.
Koji swing seemed to be what was needed for the rest to take it down. The bruise from the model fading mostly from Elissa's magic. "I am okay. I heard that learning biology was tough...never thought it would be that tough," he says with a slightly chagrined smile. [b]"Anybody got any way to help me remove the rest of the....ick....from my clothing?"
"What is causing all this? The children said there was hauntings...but something like that would have killed the children? Is this something we are bringing to it--with our adult minds--or did something get woken up?" Koji goes to a corner and decides to whisper and listen. " Kristin uses 1 gold, 5 silver and 2 copper to buy her and her friends wonderful perfume. The perfume costs 8 silver and 6 copper...how much money does Kristin still have?"
Koji readies to attack as soon as he sees that the creature stand up.
It then rises, and the guts...slime?...Koji. Giving him the feel of absolute ickiness. And then the creature gets closer to him..ugh Seeing the others having problems to attack...he figures he better try to hurt this creature.
He then uses his sleeve to wipe off the ick....
Koji sees the the weird energy surround and 'animate' the model, and finally sees where his knowledge can come into play. He moves forwards, the kusarigama sliding easily into both hands as he starts to spin it almost lazily around him. Once he gets close enough he strikes with it...attempting to trip this anatomically correct model.
Spoiler: If a crit damage from landing on its bum
After hearing why the first ghost seems to be just some kind of spell causing the issue, Koji thinks of a way to do things faster...or at least not requiring them to run around the whole school. "Well...we have three right close to where we are...the North Eastern Bathroom with the ghost boy, and the missing door near the Laboratory, and finally Laboratory whisper...why don't we do them in order of closest to farther? "
Koji listens politely to the ones that probably know more about the supernatural....he knows he has little knowledge of these matters. Though he does go through the items that are in the bag. His mercantile mind adds up the gold needed for these items. "These kids have at least some knowledge of items that might help..and have the means to get them."
Koji finds hearing about the school--and it being 'cursed' intriguing. He looks over to Yuan Wu...wondering if the monk might have some omamori on him...those might help. Then realizing that Tian culture....spirits and such are looked on differently than in this civilization.... "The list of the legends...do you have this list from the children? If so, may we see it. And Elissa question is valid, after we read them, can we speak to the students?"
Koji has been listening to all this with interest. "Oh...me. As said, I come from a merchant family in Goka. My family is in business in making and then selling perfume and other exotic scents and spices. My mother came to the shop while she was on business for the Society, and as my father says...it was love at first sight." "Not much else to tell about me...I was decent with the selling of items, but not very good at mixing and preparing all the scents or the spices. I did learn how to fight from my grandmother. She never said where she learned all the weapons of the samurai...or ninja. Things like that is often not something you ask of your respected elders."
Lightly bowing to each new person, and especially bowing a bit lower to the ones that seem to be more nobly born. When another from Tian walks in, Koji looks him over, and also formally bows to him. After listening to where Yuan Wu is from, Koji nods his assent to that knowledge. "I did not mention that I am from Goka, part of Imperial Lung Wa."
A Tien man comes in wearing a wooden breastplate. The intricate designs etched into the breastplate are of flowers and what appears to be long grasses. An unusual chain weapon is casually wrapped around his right shoulder. As he moves, the black hair moves away from one of his ears and you can see that he is not human, but likely of half-elven ancestry. He bows formally from the waist as he comes in, as he speaks, you realize that he has a pronounced accent, likely not from this side of the world. "I am Oda Koji. I would prefer you call me Koji. I come from a family of merchants that have worked with the Lantern Lodge for many years...so I grew up hearing about this 'Pathfinder Society'. You can say that my family used some of the Pathfinder Chronicles as my night time stories to tell me as a kid. I came here recently, and have been on a few missions so far. I hope that my skills in combat, and my knowledge will be of assistance as we venture forth on this next adventure." Besides the chain weapon, a dagger is tucked into his right boot, and a pair of round metal disks are on the left side of his belt. A small, but somewhat full travel backpack is casually slung over his left shoulder. |
