Parumartish's page

man got really bogged down this week. ah well congrats to those who made it! have fun!

so I originally made this character for PFS but decided that he's probably more appropriate for a king maker campaign because I wanted him to eventually be like the advisor to somebody important I need to lower his stats to 15 points and actually write in the backstory that I have for him (and add an NPC level).

basically he's a seeker of knowledge. he sees this as an opportunity to discover knowledge and arcane power no one else alive has. when i can get to a keyboard i will elaborate.

Among other things. +2 Str, -2 Dex, and you have reach now.

As the scene explodes into chaos, Parumartish casts a handful of powdered iron into the air and begins chanting and weaving complicated signs with his hands. When he finishes chanting, he points to Davor and the iron powder begins to swirl and coalesce around the inquisitor who begins to grow larger.

Casting enlarge person on Davor.

"We still need him to sign those," Parumartish reminds them.

DMB, you didn't list "liberating command" under the spells i copied, but you still charged me the 110 for both it and "featherfall". that you charged me is fine; i wanted both spells. if you could add it to the sheet for me, i'd really appreciate it. thanks.

Is no one going to try and wake Becher?

Fort Save: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 2 = 15

Parumartish positions himself on the high ground in case conflict cannot be avoided.

i'm in no particular rush with Paru, but do you think i could also purchase a wand of Infernal Healing for 2pp?

it's quite alright. more importantly, is your daughter okay?

correction, i wanted featherfall, not liberating command.

edit: or both and make it 110.

oh yes! sorry. I do wish to trade some spells. I will update in a bit but I have company now and am on my phone which is a pain to use with the boards.

Perception: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27
Heal: 1d20 ⇒ 5

"I would be careful with that," Parumartish says of the lockbox. "It appears to be trapped."

Me too, I was just pointing out that it wouldn't affect the ghoul's turn since it went first, so it made sense that you hadn't mentioned it.

Parumartish's eyes narrow slightly in annoyance as the ghoul manages to assault his allies before he can react. He pulls himself out of the muck and away from the undead fiend to invoke a spell of illusion.

Oh that's where Davor was! Anyway, the plan was to make the indicated area appear to be natural walls in the cave.

Alright then. The rest is just up to perceived zombie behavior. :)

Right, but mindless undead are immune to mind-affecting spells, so I'm not sure if an illusory stone wall would hinder the zombies in any way.

I think you have to go before the ghoul to get it with a readied trip.

I have a question though. Apparently, illusions aren't necessarily mind-affecting, and silent image doesn't have the [mind-affecting] descriptor, so... how would that work?

"Let us press on then, shall we?"

I'm just sad because it's a weak argument. I don't stop being responsible for what happens to my things because I hand them to someone else unless that person does something unreasonable with whatever it is. If my tablet breaks and most reasonable people can agree that it was an accident, then it could just as easily have happened while it was in my possession. So I would have no reasonable argument to support monetary compensation. If you break my tablet because you decided it would make a nice coaster or football, on the other hand, that's completely different.

Survival: 1d20 ⇒ 11

edit: I'm not entirely sure whether or not you can take 10 on a knowledge check, but it doesn't seem prudent, so I'll roll.

Knowledge (religion): 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (6) + 9 = 15

re-edit: That roll was to know more, possibly different stuff about ghouls since the ghoul fever has already been pointed out.

"Well, I doubt it is quite so simple as all that, my dear, but all the same, we are here on Society business, so the petty concerns of the Taldan army are of no consequence to me," Parumartish states flatly.

sounds good.

Ah. Doesn't really make a difference to me. I was just curious.

Are we playing up?

Parumartish shrugs. "I have come to expect that many of our Venture-Captains will say whatever they believe will entice us to accept a mission."

Yeah, apparently they removed it with errata that went unnoticed. Good.

Beckett, you didn't respond in the recruitment thread, so I'm asking again if it's still cool if I come along with my wizard. Finished that Confirmation.

1.) Achilles
2.) Parumartish
3.) 116049-2
4.) Scarab Sages
5.) staplefordchase@gmail.com

Also, Mirima. I was under the impression one of my spells had to be from my specialty school also, but I can't seem to find that rule now...

edit: Apparently that was a 3.5 rule and isn't in Pathfinder.

ready if i can still come along.

Paru moves into the smaller chamber hoping to get a better angle of attack and releases another glob of acid.

Ranged Touch Attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5
Acid Splash Damage: 1d3 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

Seeing another of the demons fall, Hothan commands Freedom to attack the remaining dretch as he follows Shayla past the bottleneck to strike with his falchion.

Hothan
Melee Attack: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15
Falchion Damage: 2d4 + 4 ⇒ (3, 1) + 4 = 8

Freedom
Fly (DC 15) to Hover: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (19) + 8 = 27 It seems like it would need one to stay in the same place and full attack if it can.
Bite Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19
Bite Damage: 1d4 ⇒ 2

Edit: In retrospect, a full attack might not be possible for Freedom.

Ranged Touch Attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12
Acid Splash Damage: 1d3 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

Parumartish reaches into his bag and retrieves his acid flask before conjuring another glob of the corrosive substance to serve their foes.

Ranged Touch Attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4
Acid Splash Damage: 1d3 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4 What a waste of max damage. Ha!

Sorry! Missed that I was up. Can't do much though.

Parumartish, having done what he could for Cyrus, moves back away from the dretches to conjure a splash of acid.

Ranged Touch Attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22
Acid Splash Damage: 1d3 ⇒ 1
Critical Confirmation: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8
Critical Damage: 1d3 ⇒ 2

(10 + 5 armor + 3 Dex + 2 Protection from Evil + 4 cover)

I cast these things for a reason.

edit: Even at 22, at least one of those attacks had to miss you.

Oh I don't care either way. I only said something because Chyras seemed to think he couldn't.

It's the other way around, but Hothan could have taken Max's spot since he has the high initiative and Max is actually after the dretches.

"Demons of the Abyss called 'Dretches'," Parumartish answers. "If there were more space in this room, I would suggest we spread ourselves out, but it does not seem we have that option."

thanks for meat-shielding! :D

Seeing Cyrus step up to block the choke point, Parumartish steps past Maxwell and Chyras to cast an abjuration, warding the warrior from evil.

Paru casts protection from evil on Cyrus.

Knowledge (planes): 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 9 = 16

Spellcraft: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (5) + 9 = 14
Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 23

Parumartish enters the room and looks around. Searching the desk, he finds the personal journal of this "Emperor" Relios and begins to flip through it. "This seems to be this man's personal journal. He was apparently some sort of drug kingpin... I suppose we should take this back with us at least.

Paru looks over as Chyras picks up the charred parchment. "Yes, I believe that part was obvious from the discarded scroll case."

Suddenly, he stops and holds up a hand. "There is something in that vault," he says, pointing to the westernmost one.

Before leaving the sanctuary, Parumartish flips through his spell book again wanting to review a spell he feels may be useful later.

Filling that open slot now with Protection from Evil.

Parumartish shuffles back and away from the remaining thug careful to avoid leaving his defenses open. "I suppose you should be asking yourself how lucky you feel about now, no?"

Paru withdraws to the square that Hothan moved from next to Cyrus.

If there's only one space between you and the enemy, they can just take a 5-ft. step to avoid your reach weapon and close with you.

Edit: Nevermind, the square you indicated is further back than I thought.

That is too bad... Parumartish thinks with a sigh as he accesses the magic in his tattoo to grant him magical resistance to harmful effects.

Prescience: 1d20 ⇒ 19

In his mind, he sees his next move. Perfect. It would be unfortunate to lose my concentration trying to avoid this fool's weapon, but it seems I won't have any trouble with that.

Striding forward with absolute confidence, Parumartish stands directly before the Wyverns' leader and casts a spell.

Concentration to Cast Defensively: 19 + 6 = 25
Parumartish casts color spray (DC 16). He should be able to catch all enemies from that square.

Kluddle did you still want to roll initiative for us? And have we started combat or can we still catch them off-guard with some sudden aggression?

Parumartish looks up from his spellbook and frowns at the suggestion that killing these men should be as simple as declaring them evil, but says nothing on the matter as these Steel Wyvern thugs aren't likely to give them much choice.

"While I don't expect they will be particularly receptive, might someone try talking to them first?" he suggests.

Edit: Yeah, it doesn't really matter where I am.

Paru will take this time to study his spellbook. (He may or may not fill that last slot with grease before the fight.) He will also take this time to find an advantageous hiding spot (taking 20 for a 22).
