This campaign has started and stopped and been re-rolled so many times...
I think I'm done. This is the main problem with Paizo MB's... games 90% likely to fall apart in a month or less.

Okki watches the others and shrugs. "I bet there's shinies still." But he turns and follows Makena.
Okki doesn't back out until Farg Farg does. He is loathe to leave any room undiscovered.
Either is fine with me.
Okki slips the ring off the man and explains to the others.."Okki need this ring. It not worth much since it is like a longshanks tribe tattoo. But someone will Okki some shiny things for it, which he will share." He grumbles about the chief again. Maybe he really did misunderstand?
Okki watches the goblins maneuvering with some frustration. He delays his strike, watching as one gob after another fail to give him the chance he needs. Then of course, beautiful Makena realizes what he needs and opens the door for him to move in. He dashes forward and strikes at the deadshanks.
Okki creeps tentatively forward, holding his weapon in front of him defensively. Now isn't the time to strike. It would be overextending. He reminds the others a last time. "Okki fights best with him an' gobs on opposite sides of the bad things. Keep that in mind!" He hopes that the new creatures aren't as resistant to damage as the skeletons were.
Okki pauses. No sound? He giggles for a second and then gets to business. No sound doesn't make shiny rocks worth less. He tries to use a dagger to pry them out before checking the rest of the room.
Okki peers at the gems. "Hey gobs. Lookit' that!" He waits for the others before attempting to cross to the idol to inspect the gems. Maybe he could pry them out with a dagger? He checks over the statue for any signs of traps.
Okki thanks Vonk and begins to poke around again, this time focusing near the stairs. He figures left is as good as right, and starts that way.
Okki heads over and plops down next to Makena. He pats her on the arm. "You got gobs in gobs. Gobs just like a friend. Most will listen if you shout at it loud enough." He gets back up and waves at Vonk. "Thanks for the helpy-stick. Think you could do it to Okki again?
Okki splashes through the water once more, circling around behind the skeletons to flank them next turn.
Okki sighs, then heads back towards the fracas.
"Thanks Gob." Okki watches as the others advance on the skeletons. Next time they should attack in a group...maybe try to drag them down or something. He shudders at Makenas pony-beast as it fights the undead. "Makena has castings for demons already. We lucky she with us." Still wounded, Okki doesn't appear to be too eager to rush in at the last skeleton. Rather, he watches the last undead acutely, ready to defend himself from an arrow.
Okki is hurt badly. "I did my part! Someone else get these other bones!" He turns and runs back the other direction, trying to get some distance between himself and the skeletons still standing.
Okki takes the long way around, skirting around the skeleton and through the shallow pool of water. "Now you doing it right Wolf Gob! Always a gob on one side and Okki on the other! It isn't ideal, but he thrusts his little sword at the skeletons spine, hoping to at least inflict minimal damage.
Okki growls as Farg Farg doesn't go as far as he had hoped. He liked to sneak and stab, but he would wait until Farg Farg could stab with him. So he moves near the pool, raising his sword to try and deflect the incoming arrows. [1] Single Move.
Okki growls loudly when Boorgub goes down. He starts running forward towards the archers on the left side, hoping the he will arrive about the same time as Farg Farg and Fangface. He draws his wakizashi as he runs closer.
Okki quickly reaches out and grabs Makena's wrist as she tries to squeeze by. "Hey gobs. Don't walk in the middle. Walk arounds it. Someone fell in and didn't come back out. Be careful." He grins wide and toothy at the Kobold and lets her go. "Okki like to work with things what not Gobs. So be careful you!" He skirts the trap and heads to the next room, staying alert and quiet.
Okki will search the new room as best he can, looking for anything that seems dangerous to him or the others. If nothing reveals itself, he will slink forwards, careful of his noise and angle of approach into the new room.
Okki continues down the switchback hallway, staying as quiet as he can. He follows it until it either reveals enemies or a new room. If it reveals a new room, he will move close enough forward to reveal it's layout and contents, and then report back to the other gobs.
"We be checkin' this hall for stuff. Seeing the fancy door make Okki think this place might have traps. Okki used to just let the biggest human walk down the halls first, but we all gobs or gob-like here. Okki wouldn't want Boss Gob-lard mad again cuz someone not come back." He points out the south east hallway. "We should go have a look first. Lugrun too big to sneak proper."
Okki shrugs. He looks sadly around the room, realizing he snuck TOO good. He didn't get to stab nuffin. Whistling, he sticks his sword into the buttocks of the human Makena tried to heal. "Boss say to leave him alone. That he handle him and that it only be a stupid gob that try and pick a fight with Yunar. Okki met a half shanks that like us to fight him, so yea. If we fight Yunars guys, we just make sure none of them live to tell Yunar about it." Okki takes some time looking at the Door of the Seven Stars. "We prolly find bits to go in these holes somewhere. Sometmes that open up a door." Okki helps check the dead, but also is looking for anything specifically that marks them as Yunars men, be it a badge or tattoo or some other device. If he finds something, he will scoop it up/cut it off and take it with him. Afterwards, he will start to scout the southeast hallway, beckoning the impressive Kavous over with him. Dice Rolls!:
Okki double moves closer. For now, he's confident in the others to handle things. After the Longshanks move again, he will reconsider his options.
Okki warns the other Gobs. "No eating that pig. Okki say it probably a bad idea. Prolly trap." He skirts around the far side of the wall, then peeks down the hallway.
Okki considers stopping the group to try and get a grasp on how they want to proceed, but he is still in a sour mood from his belittling at the hands of the gob boss. When Kavous heads out in front, Okki doesn't offer any argument. "Prolly no traps for Okki to find anyways..." He draws his wakizashi and tries to move quietly behind Kavous, maybe 5 feet behind. He is impressed with the other gobs sneaking, but gobs are always good at sneaking.
"Tsk. Okki will do better next time Boss. Okki show you he not a dumb gob. Okki only want to be da boss gobs eyes in shadow, showing him all things so he can decide in his great wisdom what important and what not. Okki too dumb to know what Boss Gob needs to know, so he tell all!" Okki bows low, and hands the boss his shinies and slinks to the back of the main room, getting lost in the crowd. Sulking against the wall, he wathces the others in the brambles. He quietly slips a shuriken back into his pocket as the hobgob is calmed by Makena's nice talk words. Grumbling to himself, Okki is impatient to leave and it shows. Stupid boss. He not know how much it is worth to know all things, even things that can't be done yet. Okki learned much things with pajama humans. Secrets and ways to do things were taught there. Sometimes he still preferred human boss, but there not many of those for gobs. Maybe he spend only as much time with Boss Fatgob as he need and spend the rest with the blue lizard humans. Still, better to get this magic sword soon. He heads outside, flipping ninja stars in the air while waiting for the other gobs. vs DC 10 (+4 bonus to conceal shuriken)
Okki waits patiently while the new gobs and old make introductions. He sits cross legged on the floor, picking his teeth with a shuriken and pondering how best to approach da boss gob. "Awright boss. Okki figure he share his day too. First, Okki got his stuffs to make fancy tattoos again. I can make tattoos for the coolness, and I can make them for the special. I didn't make any today, but I have your 5 gold shinies. Second, Okki met a Nessa Shortshanks. She tell Okki she can split some of her moneys with gobs if we handle a guy named Yunar, but Okki think that he might be kinda tough. Nessa say he have some thieves and some guards. If boss makin' friends with them Okki leave it alone." He shuffles a bit, drawing his weapon to scratch his back before finishing. "And the last. Okki find a person to pay 500 shiny gold if we find this noble-shanks. He got missing outside Mivon, which is to the east a day. They say he in some ruins there, so gobs not even need go in city. Them humies wot told me about this keep 100 gold shinies, so it's the rest for Brambleclaws."
Okki grins and gets up, then pats off his black pajamas and leather armor. He takes the picture and commits the words to memory. Da boss will probably know this place. "Okki thank ya. Will get gobs to go find this longshanks. Will be easy! We got some strong gobs. Okki see you with noble-shanks later! He turns and waves, then heads out the door back to the Brambles. He will wait there to tell everyone, including the boss gob, about what he found. He will also ask the boss about the thief-lord he learned about earlier.
Okki does too. He's even got a diplomacy mod. I'm going to take a few linguistics points with him I think.
Okki nods, considering the woman as well. He decides that he wants to eat her cigar, but it would be bad to ask. So instead, he just answers. "Yea. Okki spent long time with pajama-fighter humans. They make Okki this Wakisaucy. They teach Okki to sneak and throw and stab and steal, so he do those things sometimes." He walks near her table and sits on the floor, then idly fidgets with a Shuriken. "Okki think this nice town. There be fights and nice halfshanks that sell him tattoo stuff, but sometimes nice towns be boring. And da boss back at da Brambles wants gobs to stay busy. You have a thing for da gobs? Okki can do alone, or he got more gobs at home. Just don't ask to hurt the half-shanks. Okki need her for inks."
Okki bugs the other gobs awhile more, getting the way as best he can, then sets out, looking for the green place under the blue lizard.
Okki's ears perk up. "Which merchant wants sneaky gobs for spying? Where find? Is it the half-shanks lady?"
Okki is pleased to see there isn't too much fanfare behind setting up a booth. Making note to return, he realizes just how bored he is getting. Restless, he heads back again to The Brambles. "Hey gobs. Why is dat longshanks pup here? Also, when gobs want to do dangerous things for money who do they see? I done some adventures and don't mind to do them again. I thought boss might give us something, but he seems to want us to do the somethings on our own."
Okki sighs when he realizes that he isn't getting anything out of the boss today. Bored, he isn't quite sure what to do. He looks around The Brambles a bit before deciding to head back out into the city. He heads to the Goblin Bazaar, looking to see if he can find a booth space for rent. He would build a name for himself with the gobs and teethy folk, then maybe sell tattoos to the humans too.
The GOOD news on UMD is that failing the check doesn't waste a charge until you roll a natural 1. The BAD news is we wont be able to afford one for a little bit still. More good news is Okki took Dangerously Curious as a trait and has a 14 charisma. So right now he has a UMD of +7? (2 Cha, 3 Trained, 1 skill, 1 trait.)
I dont know if you noticed, but we all get a free point for a profession or craft skill. The Gobbo chief demands we add to the tribe, so to speak.
Another tidbit.. it should be "Imbue"
The goblin nods his head a lot as the short-legs says a bunch of things. He understands, for the most part. There's another seller who wants this seller gone. The amount of work it sounds like is involved makes him a little less interested, but he will ask the boss about it when he gets back. He pays for 10 stoppered glass vials, the Healers Kit, and a flask of each ink. (10+50+16=76 gp) "Thanks for the stuff. Okki tell the others gobs about your thing with the guy. Thanks for not shooting Okki too. If you need a tattoo or know anyone who do let them know okay?" Okki leaves, heading back towards home so he can look at his stuff and maybe ask the boss about Yunar.
Okki considers the Orc for a moment. He probably doesn't want to pick that fight alone. "Nonono. Okki not know Yunar and if he did he would tell Yunar to stuff it if he sent Okki to poke stick at such pretty halfling. Gobs and halflings should be friends, short-legs in a world of longshanks."
Okki pokes around the shop, staying in full view of the Orc and the halfling. After a moment, he comes to the counter. "Okki looking for some things. He need [after much explaining of colors like this bug or that thing, it translates to 10 ink vials, 2 black ink pots, 1 yellow ink pot, 1 cyan ink pot, 1 magenta ink pot, and masterwork tools.] You have?" Okki reaches for his coin purse to show he has money. "Also, you have problem with Yunar? Maybe gobs can help if you got shinies or knick knacks to trade?"
Okki continues to wander. He has headed east, away from the others and unfortunately on his own. He seeks to purchase inks and dyes. (Building/area 1?) He is also looking for anything that may be an easy chance to make a little money. This gob boss cares about shinies, so Okki has to as well.
I think Derrik was wanting to claim dibs on the charisma thingy? Not entirely sure.
Sorry GM, I just realized I kinda skipped over exploration there. If would would like, I can undo Okki's actions and simply wander in a big circle until he finds the inks he is looking for. Also, is it okay for tattoos to have a bonus in game? Like maybe a Masterwork Tattoo can add +1 to 1 charisma based skill chosen by the
Masterwork tools grant +2 to a skill check, but you can have multiple tattoos, so this is a balancing move. That keeps it only moderately useful but fun anyways. Would also venture to say that any social skill can only benefit from 1 tattoo, period. Whatcha think?
Before the night ended, did anyone have any cure spells? Okki was down to his last couple of hitpoints. |
