Papa Òxọ́lé's page

The first box does nothing, IIRC, so I will pick up the Land Grab sheet if this character does another floor.

Chronicle looks good. Thanks for a great game, everyone, especially Phaeton for running!

Acheron can tell Papa about how the Society made friend with Katapesh's goblin gang/family while hunting down traitor VC. 10-06 Treason's Chain

Thank you!

If it's not clear, the frustration with Acheron is completely in character. I had a wonderful time playing with all of you.

The tiefling dons his equipment and begins to mentally compose his report for this journey. He is a bit conflicted on what to write about Acheron, who seems to have been the cause of and solution to all the Pathfinders' problems.

Òxọ́lé has the Research Specialist boon, which gives him bonuses to Knowledge skills based on how many stories he has been told. Once per scenario, if a character tells him about an adventure he has neither played nor been told about before, he gets credit, and every three credits is a +1 to a new knowledge skill. Please keep tales spoiler free, and they can be very brief (assume details are shared off-panel).

He can be told any tale except: 0-04, 0-07, 1-39, 2-11, 2-13, 3-23, 4-19, 5-08, 6-07, 7-99, 9-14, 9-22, Bonekeep 2 and We be Goblins Free!

Craft (Books): 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (4) + 13 = 17

Òxọ́lé quickly retrieves his gear.

"Well, absolutely nothing has gone as expected here, but thank you."

Not interested in returning to the magnet room, Òxọ́lé double moves to pin down the final troglodyte.

Step and slash.

Mithral Longsword: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8
Slashing Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

After almost making a critical hit and then almost being subject to a critical hit, the tiefling approaches the nearest troglodyte caefully before swinging.

Mithral Longsword: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 5 + 2 = 22
Slashing Damage: 1d8 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 3 + 2 = 10

Òxọ́lé moves north and readies another miss attack on the next troglodyte to approach.

Mithral Longsword: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22
Slashing Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

The tiefling also moves and readies to attack a troglodyte. Will this travesty never end?

It's interesting flavoring, but hasn't really mattered much to my character, since he is melee focused and mostly uses transmutation implements and buff spells. Perhaps at higher levels, the terrain-based spell may make more of a difference.

Mithral Longsword: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7
Slashing Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

If Purple drops, move to the starred location.

It means "I just read Children of Blood and Bone and want a name that would fit in that setting." It looked cool, is probably pronounceable, and has lots of extra bits. Nothing more.

Generally I like accent marks, non-Roman characters, etc. I never expect others to use them when referring to my characters.

Òxọ́lé sighs heavily and keeps after Purple.

Mithral Longsword: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (17) + 5 = 22
Slashing Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

Boon: 1d20 ⇒ 3

19 is indeed a win.

Òxọ́lé moves toward THE SCARY DOOR and swings at Purple.

Mithral Longsword: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23
Slashing Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

Òxọ́lé circles around to pin Blue down.

Mithral Longsword: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14
Slashing Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

The tiefling circles around to attack the blue troglodyte.

Mithral Longsword: 1d20 + 5 - 2 ⇒ (4) + 5 - 2 = 7
Slashing Damage: 1d8 + 3 - 2 ⇒ (1) + 3 - 2 = 2

He misses his armor, and also not murdering everyone just because they happen to be standing near a problem. And, of course, his target.

Mithral Longsword: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12
Slashing Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8

Òxọ́lé takes a swing at the creature before him, but his heart really isn't in it.

Òxọ́lé steps to the side and swings at the green-clad troglodyte.

Mithral Longsword: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11
Slashing Damage: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

"We've already been. The sacrifice was - urk - a little excessive, so we were hoping to figure out how to get a refund."

He lets someone more directly involved explain what happened to Slaagh.

Òxọ́lé sheathes his blade. "I'm not sure that was necessary, but now that it's done, let's see if we can turn off that machine."

He searches the room they are in for switches, buttons, or anything else that might operate a giant magnet.

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18

Of course. Stepped.

Òxọ́lé uses a point of divination focus to make his sword +1.

"You have been wonderful hosts, but we really do need to get our things back before we go, so if you know how to turn that, please show us how before Acheron gets mad."

"What comes from below?"

Start by looking around. I count six doors that we haven't used yet. I doubt beating the troglodytes (to death or otherwise) will result in us knowing what to do.

As the person most affected by the Godbox, I vote that we get moving and try to come back to it later. It's been a week just talking about this.

"Best be off. After we've had a look around, we will probably find a way to get our equipment back."

Isn't cold iron made of iron? I think that would just stick your weapon.

"I'd rather not use my sword as a mithral crowbar, but I am not taking that option off the table either."

Òxọ́lé will use detect magic on the stuck items to get some idea which ones are valuable before looking over the doors.

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18

"I doubt they would have been kind enough to put the solution in the same place as the problem. Thanks to Acheron, I should be able to continue the journey in as much safety as when I entered."

Use Magic Device: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (12) + 10 = 22

"Many thanks," he says, returning the wand. "Though I do intend to get that back."

The tiefling wriggles out of his armor, leaving him with only a well-traveled explorer's outfit for protection. He stares at his reflection in his fortunately-not-magnetic blade. "Looks like you will need to be my sword and shield today," he says ruefully.

No armor, no ranged weapons, magic focused on improving his melee capabilities, and insufficient Fame to use the Debt to Society boon... what could go wrong?

Just about everything but my primary weapon.

"There are slots on this object. Perhaps that is where we are to make our offering?"

With effort, he drawsa cold iron dagger and slides it into one of the slots.

The tiefling can feel his weapons being pulled toward the structure.

Percpetion: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20

Is mithral magentic? I would expect not, but it's a GM call.

Òxọ́lé looks at the food and tries to figure out what is in it - and what it will due to you.

Craft, Untrained: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21

Fortitude save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (20) + 4 = 24

Òxọ́lé skips the buffet and examines the mural.

"Iron, eh? Glad my blade isn't steel, then. Though I do have a dagger I could make as an offering if need be. Shall we be on our way?"

"Greetings, Slaagh. We are but visitors for the moment, though I am keen to learn more about your sacrificial rituals and your... holy grubs, was it?"

Fortitude Save: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20

A dark-skinned, middle-aged tiefling man with more features of beast than human - curved horns, wickedly sharp teeth, and goat-like legs and tail - enters the room. "I am called Papa Òxọ́lé," he says in a deep, gravely voice, "I am a collector of tales, and occasionally maker of same when called upon - as it seems I have been today." He leans against a wall and withdraws a quill and book from his pack. He opens the latter, revealing hastily scribbled notes and maps. "Before we subject ourselves to whatever this stench portends, I wonder if one of you would be so kind as to regale me with a story of your past exploits?"

Òxọ́lé has the Research Specialist boon, which gives him bonuses to Knowledge skills based on how many stories he has been told. Once per scenario, if a character tells him about an adventure he has neither played nor been told about before, he gets credit, and every three credits is a +1 to a new knowledge skill.

Sorry, missed the fact that this was core. Papa Òxọ́lé doesn't qualify, so please remove him from the game. Enjoy all!

The tiefling cleans his blade meticulously before sheathing it. "Well, this will make quite the tale. I hope this is the end of it, though you can count on me if there is more trouble. Thank you all for your assistance."

Miss Chance: 1d100 ⇒ 36

The assault continues.

+1 Mithral Longsword: 1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 5 + 2 = 17
Slashing Damage, Lead Blades: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (3, 4) + 4 = 11
Miss Chance: 1d100 ⇒ 85
