Back from my Asia trip and ready to continue but ok with a delay if necessary.


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Regulus clicks in acknowledgment of Kaillum's assistance and quickly reaches for a combination of ingredients. "Suitable accelerant..." He launches the improvised explosive at the undead creature while evoking a spell to protect himself.

Bomb: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (2) + 7 = 9
Dam: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10

Assuming that misses touch AC, 6 splash damage in 5 ft radius with DC 15 reflex for half.

Mage armor brings AC up to 19.


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Ttavelimg until Apr 5. Please bot. Will flee if group flees or nova if group novas.


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Ah c'mon we could handle 6 or 7 HD... Probably...


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Regulus holds forth the mirror. "I could perhaps help with this enemy were someone else to hold this object."

Those who have useful ways to fight a vampire should go for it. If someone doesn't, they can take my mirror and I'll use bombs and spells. The mirror takes a standard action to keep presenting.


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Ah ok well that simplifies things a LOT!


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Did all the wolves go away? Did I miss something?


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Regulus draws forth a small steel mirror and holds it boldly in front of the vampire. "I will do what I can to hold it back. Please obtain a suitable means of egress."

Standard action to present mirror. 5 ft step up to the vampire.


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Concerned for his ally, Regulus steps forward while casting a spell and drawimg a vial, which he throws. Great appears under the hostile creature in his coffin while the vial explodes!

Ranged touch attack bomb: 1d20 + 7 - 2 ⇒ (5) + 7 - 2 = 10
Dam: 1d6 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8

Spell combat to cast spell while attacking. DC 16 reflex for he guy or fall prone. 6 splash damage from bomb DC 15 reflex halves.


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Fascinated, Regulus begins inspecting the area.

Detect magic.


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

I have vials and mage hand so may try to harvest.

Also, that was totally K dung that I labeled K eng...

Willing to use a bomb if we want to go this way.


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

K eng: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (17) + 9 = 26

Regulus' mechanical hand extends silently and smoothly toward Kaillum to halt her. He points at the slime and shakes his head then points to the rat bones.

Do I know if it's possible to stealth past green slime?


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Regulus nods in the affirmative and heads straight with Kaillum.

Stealth: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (6) + 11 = 17
Perc: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (4) + 8 = 12


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

I thought it was interesting and intuitive. I think we just expected something far more complicated and were very slow and careful because of it.

Regarding passage, I say we just pick something. We're all itching to break in our fancy characters with a good fight. :)


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

I don't have an opinion on which way to go but will side with the majority. I think we should just pick something and go.


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Thanks for the heads up!


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Grey, what we're onto requires you to put your candle in an alcove before mine.


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

K arcana: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (18) + 9 = 27
Spcrft: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (13) + 10 = 23
K arcana: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11
Spcrft: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (13) + 10 = 23

Regulus simply nods to confirm Yutin's words. Once the others have placed their candles in the alcoves, he does so last.


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

You mean the middle candle leans toward Yutin and toward me while all the other 8 lean away? Or does the middle candle lean toward me an a different one toward Yutin? If so, which one?


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Regulus looks with interest at the candles and nods at Yutin's manipulations. "Insufficient data." He moves toward the locked door and examines the alcoves. He also looks carefully at the candle on the sarcophagus to see if it moves in any direction.


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

I really should. I'll pick it up next level or if we get a scroll. A GM I play with a lot bans that spell as OP so I don't tend to think about it.


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Regulus buzzes with curiosity. "Indeed. I anticipate fascinating data to be gathered in the level subordinate to this one. I will move forward with the amohibian to provide reconnaissance."

perc aud traps Kaillum: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (10) + 8 = 18
Stealth: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (7) + 11 = 18


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Indeed! Itching for some action. ;)


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Up sounds good!


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Regulus lifts his elbows in. Apoor imitation of a shrug. "Regulus four is an appropriate designation for me. As for direction, I have insufficient data but further investigation by pursuing a direction will yield said data."


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Regulus clicks mechanically as he turns to the group, not wishing to turn away from the fascinating alchemy lab. "Indeed. Pre-determined strategies modified spontaneously are likely to fare better than pure spontaneity with no pre-existing strategy. I am relatively capable of moving quietly to observe enemies. Forewarned is forearmed as some organics state. I have never fought another sentient before but I believe that I could slow them down with arcane manipulations to slow their movement and improvised alchemical devices to damage them." He ponders. "Now if only I could improvise a device that damages while slowing..."

Looking forward to tanglefoot bombs next level. :)


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Regulus turns curiously to Yutin. "I infer you may be identifying magical auras. Might I assist you with whatever knowledge is retained within my circuits?"


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Regulus' head swivels on his neck toward Kaillum. "Yes I would aid our summoner as well... As far as I can determine... that is my purpose..." He replies to the voice "Who are these enemies? How will we aid you?"


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Regulus' sensors light up and glow visibly at the appearance of the bookshelf and alchemy lab. But then his brain begins humming with activity upon seeing the orrery. [smaller]"Fascinating... It may represent some astronomical bodies but I have no conjectures as to which..."


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Regulus' head rotates with a slight clicking sound to Kaillum. He responds "Affirmative. That seems an optimal course of action. If they wish to head first into danger, we can allow that, though no doubt we could move with less amplitude of incidental sound waves."


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Yes I'm fine with using roll20 for some map stuff.


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Regulus freezes in his silent, mechanical motion up the steps. His head swivels around as his face, far from human, scans the others with his central ocular sensor. He leads a mastiff carrying a pack with him and carries several books in a leather pack on his back. "Fascinating. It seems we have found ourselves in symmetrical predicaments. I have no idea as to the cause or purpose but am eager to investigate further. Cooperation can only yield greater results, should we all prove trustworthy."


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

You mean even those of us with darkvision can't see past 20 ft?

Regulus looks into the darkness with great curiosity, his central ocular sensor detecting very little. He leads his pack dog inside the darkness with him, moving as quietly as he can while searching for the cause of his inability to see.

Stealth: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (15) + 11 = 26

He also searches carefully to ensure that where he steps is safe, as long as he can see.

Perception: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Regulus would be from Golarion. As an android, he's likely from Numeria but I imagine he's spent most of his life in Absalom where there are much better libraries. XD


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Regulus walks around the spire as well. Seek ingress. Gather data. He looks for an entrance and also looks up the spire, attempting to determine if there are any features of interest that would warrant climbing.

Perc: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (4) + 8 = 12


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

The android looks at the spire silently, his procedure gears whizzing inside his head as attempts to determine how he came to be here and the meaning of his place. Insufficient data. He examined the spire, considering its likely architectural influences. Insufficient data. No matter found. This was peculiar... Very peculiar... One solution. Gather more data. The metal feet began treading quietly toward the spire.


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Ok so maybe a couple of us pick up stealth synergy and possibly looking and form the scout sub-team.

Oh yeah and I'm a mindchemist/wizard so I'll have a significant amount of knowledge checks going on.


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Hi all! I'm planning to do a little ranged damage/debuff with my bombs while casting battlefield control and buff spells. I'll be a pretty decent scout too and would love to consider lookout/stealth synergy with any/everyone else.


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Woohoo! Glad to be selected and looking forward to this!

Question: Will crafting assume that we can turn the appropriate amount of gp into materials for crafting?


I've got a decent loadout of equipment ready to go, though I can always find more mundane equipment worth considering... Some of my equipment will depend on whether or not we have a "create water" caster.


Thanks, GM! That helps me finish up equipment quick!


Question: May we pre-craft some of our equipment? I'm pretty good with craft alchemy and would love to have some of those fun alchemical items at 1/3 price.

So I just have equipment left. Just finished the backstory. Let me know if I should edit it in some way! I love feedback. Thanks.


Still considering what android personality would be the most enjoyable to play then will add Regulus' backstory soon.


Anybody else like the idea of taking stealth synergy and lookout? We could really have some fun with a few party members doing that.


GM, I can tell it's going to be a ton of work to review submissions. Is there a crunch format you'd like us to follow to help you figure out where bonuses come from? E.g.

Crunch from race:

Crunch from class 1:

Crunch from class 2:

Feats:

Traits:

Equipment:

Then final calculations for

Defenses:

Offense:

Magic:

Obviously I haven't done this myself yet but I'd be happy to do so.


Phew... Finally finished my three spellbooks... Good thing we have plenty of time for this!


I guess eldritch archer would allow spellstrike bombs but it requires two levels of eldritch archer and I don't want to delay my bombs, extracts, and discoveries more than I need to.


This is caster4life's submission in progress. I think androids do have a constitution score?

Also, just to note that I will be doing spell combat with bombs to cast and bomb but not spellstrike. I don't think eldritch archer would normally allow that. Plus I'll generally be casting buffs and crowd control spells instead of touch spells. But thanks for letting spell combat work!


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

It's been really good playing with you guys! You're a really great group! It's honestly just not my favorite system. Have a great time and keep saving everyone from economic inefficiencies!


Android | Wizard (exploiter) 2| Magus (Eldritch archer) 1/ Alchemist (Mindchemist) 1 | HP 20/20 | AC 15 | F 4 R 7 W 4 | Perception +8 | Init: +11

Regulus strode out of the dungeon, his mechanical mind doing its best approximation of satisfaction. Threats eliminated. Economic function preserved. Drought potentially eliminated.

He looked to the others, dragging themselves out of the dungeon. "Effective teamwork acknowledged. Objectives completed."

He recovers over the next few days then looks for the next caravan route to establish.
