This seems good.

If a door doesn't open after this procedure, then depending on the urgency, Haer Kul can either roll disable device checks until he gets it or until it's clear he won't, or he can take 20, or we can just pick another door.


Male Zathras

Updated. Thanks.

Zathrus has brought the Planet Loot spreadsheet in Neil's shared Drive folder up to date. It took time, but Zathrus doesn't mind.

There are few items remaining to be identified:


  • number of charges in the wand of lesser restoration
  • daggers from temple and from here
  • throwing axe from here

Let Zathrus know if you have trouble viewing the spreadsheet or if Zathrus has missed anything. Zathrus is usually the last to know.


Male Zathras

Nope, that sounds perfect. Gee, I wonder how you'll connect with the party...


Male Zathras

Zathras is very sad today. Goodbye, Mr. Garibaldi.


Male Zathras

Knowledge(meta)?


Male Zathras

Nighy Finn-Bach?
Hanson Pawketts?

Actually I really enjoyed The Lies of Locke Lamora and "Locke" is a pretty cool name for a break-and-enter guy.


Male Zathras

Helen, if you prefer to play a spellcaster (with healing?) then I'm quite open to parking Ziggy and taking a roguish character instead.

Detect Magic does not appear to be on the Alchemist's formulae list. Otherwise I would have taken it. Haer Kul can always do Craft(alchemy) checks to identify potions, but that's it.

I think by default, for treasure, we should take anything that indicates as magic, anything that seems higher than average quality, as well as valuables. Since neither Haer Kul nor Petronicus can detect magic or carry much, I guess we just hand stuff to the pack mule for later identification.

At least once a day, (before we sleep at the latest) I think we should assume that we would do a detect magic on the "pile o' stuff" we collected.

By the way, in the discussion list, do we use "[ooc]" markup to indicate in-character speech?

Is Zepfina primarily a melee fighter or ranged? If ranged, maybe I should take a paladin instead of cleric. If melee, I will stick with a cleric (who should still be somewhat useful in melee).


Male Zathras

I will enjoy the Aasimar cleric, but I'm also happy to pick something else if someone else wants the cleric.

Mind you if I do play the Aasimar cleric, there's a good chance I'll base the appearance on Ziggy Stardust, so I don't have to decide whether he's a straight cleric... (Or whether she's a straight cleric...) (Or should I name the cleric "Pat"?)


Male Zathras

Just looking at the Aasimar. It looks like it would be a fun cleric. Mind if I steal the idea (if I go cleric)?


Male Zathras

I am also happy to play a cleric. (It was the second choice on my list.) I didn't specify the orientation, but straight is fine with me.....


Male Zathras

I am intriqued by the Underfoot Adept (halfling monk) recommended in the Player's Guide.

I was also considering:

* A cleric of the Air Domain
* A paladin (probably Tourag - not necessarily dwarven)
* A halfling cavalier(Order of the Paw)
* A halfling ninja


Male Zathras

Neil, did we lose some posts on the Gameplay thread, or did you do some editing? The post on the singer on the walkway isn't there now.


Male Zathras

For a minor tweak, I'm going to drop the Deft Dodger feat (+1 Reflex save) and the Suspicious trait instead which gives me a +1 to Sense Motive. In addition, I would also like to train in Sense Motive instead of Knowledge(nature).

I think these changes are more in line with how I'm playing Haer Kul, and consistent with his class. If that's okay, I'll email you the updated character sheet.


Male Zathras

I'm fine with you rolling for my AoOs. I won't complain if other players want to handle their characters themselves in that situation, though.


Male Zathras

Do you mind if my gnome has the Pyromaniac alternate racial traits?


Male Zathras

For me, yeah. The Gnome Sleuth looks like it could be fun. But I'm feeling a lot of pressure to come up with a good name....


Male Zathras

Hmmm. The Sleuth Investigator is starting to look attractive with the "Run Like Hell" ability. +20 to speed for a minute would be really good for a gnome. Arriba! Arriba! Andale!


Male Zathras

Dwarf warpriest?


Male Zathras

Right now I'm leaning towards a Gnome, with one of the following classes:

  • Bard
  • Sorcerer
  • Arcanist
  • Oracle
  • Summoner

I'm open to advice or comments if someone thinks one of these combos is particularly bad (or particularly good). I haven't read up on the last three yet.


Male Zathras

G'day. I'm probably good with pretty much any character type.
