Thanks for the chronicle and run, Helikon and everyone!

"Aha!" cheers Skaf as the towering minotaur falls to his blast. "Janira, are you wounded?"

Before they set out, he makes sure to note the details of the minotaur fight.

Since the minotaur has so generously entered his range, Skaf rewards him with an electric blast!

ranged touch+song: 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 5 + 1 = 17
electricity damage+song: 1d6 + 3 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 3 + 1 = 5

low light vision. Also I am taking one burn to add Thundering Infusion. If it penetrates spell resistance and the minotaur fails at a DC 15 Fort save, it becomes deafened.

Skaf scurries forward as quickly as his little legs will carry him. "Hang in there, Janira!"

Double move.

Skaf asks, "Does anyone know their language?" He readies a blast, just in case the kobolds turn hostile.

readied blast, ranged touch: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8
electricity damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

Skaf scribbles some notes about the undead and the dead dhampir's ironic plans before they head out.

"We need to press on- remember Janira is out there holding off the minotaur. The gillman doesn't seem to care about anything this deep in the cave."

Go ahead!

"Are they causing this smell?" wonders Skaf as he zaps the lead skeleton.

blast, ranged touch: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (14) + 5 = 19
electricity damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (3) + 3 = 6

"Thank you for your time, sir. I hope your prayers go well heeded." Skaf stands and backs out of the pool. He gestures towards the cave forward. "I don't think he has anything else to tell us."

"Can you tell us anything about what awaits us deeper in the cave? More of your kind perhaps?"

"Yes we are indeed sorry. We feared there was dangerous evil in this cave and have come to investigate. May I ask why you choose this place to pray?"

diplomacy: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 16

Skaf gives the gillman a big grin. "Hello sir! May I ask what you are doing in this pool? Does this diorama here belong to you?"

Skaf takes notes on the murals' interpretations as his companions translate them. "Fascinating!"

Skaf uses the offered rope to climb out of the pit. "Like I said, someday I will be able to fly. Not yet though."

Take 10 for a 10 on Climb using the rope if that's ok.

He oohs and aahs at the engravings with the others.

perception: 1d20 + 6 - 2 ⇒ (6) + 6 - 2 = 10

acrobatics: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

"Wait for me!" cries Skaf as his leap falls woefully short.

Skaf scampers into the cave. "As much as I prefer the forest, I trust Janira's judgment here. I'm sure we'll see her soon, safe and sound."

He jots down the journey so far and then has a look around.

perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11

Skaf gives the mysterious Egg a Top Gun-style high five then creeps around the group and blasts the grey wolf.

ranged touch: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24
electricity damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9

"Look sharp, everyone! We are not alone!"

Skaf prepares an electric blast in case an enemy reveals itself.

readied attack, ranged touch: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25
damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

crit confirm?: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (20) + 5 = 25
extra damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

Buying a chronicler's kit for 40 gp.

The plucky gnome called Skaf is identifiable by the shock of unruly red hair sticking out from all angles of his head, neck, and jawline as well as his truly unusual accent. Like on the show Alaskan Bush People.

On the way to the cave he picks up a chronicler's kit. "This will help me take notes of our adventure!"

Basically you need to be trained in one of Craft, Profession, or Perform. You make a roll and get paid according to a chart which is in the PFS guide. There isn't really any crafting in PFS so this gives that skill some value.

There are other rarer ways to do day jobs too but they require faction rewards or something usually.

"I am Skaf and I have just returned from the mysterious lands of Tian Xia. And quite frankly I still don't understand their customs at all!"

"Someday I shall be able to fly without any such means. Oh how lovely that would be- soaring with the birds and feeling the freedom of the skies," rambles Skaf dreamily. "But until then, I am very interested in seeing what you are capable of accomplishing." He gives his fellow gnome a big goofy grin.

Skaf will loan his CLW wand to Eoran. I think that should cover us for this scenario.

Other than maybe the BBEG I guess? That fight can be so swingy though so it really depends.

@Greeeit: A cloister of monks?

A lively gnome listens intently to the briefing. "Why must so many assignments require traveling through caves? When will we visit the treetops?"

Room for one more still? I just need to add a chronicle to this guy and he's good to go.

Thanks GM! You did a great job! And Kita, special thanks for some memorable RP. Thanks everyone else too, this was lots of fun.

"Myth, here is some rope." Skaf hurries after the archer to help secure the prisoner.

Skaf didn't have his sickle at hand.

Skaf runs away, not liking the looks of that hook! He turns and sends another electricity blast at Zheng.

acrobatics: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (19) + 1 = 20

blast ranged touch: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24
electricity damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (4) + 3 = 7

Skaf steps forward and sends a blast of electricity at Zhang. "I'm sorry it had to come to this."

ranged touch: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23
damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

OK, got it, thanks. I thought we were supposed to be returning it to Mai Chung but then it sounded like one of those scenarios where you have to choose which faction to support.

"I would certainly appreciate more training from the Jade Ogres but we must complete our mission first. Come with us as we travel to Mai Chung and then she can do with it as she pleases."

Forgive me I'm not clear on this situation. Are they wanting to fight us for the scroll or are they just asking which one we will choose to give it to? If it's the latter, Skaf votes to give it to the Jade Ogres.

sense motive on the three 'bandits': 1d20 ⇒ 3

Ugh. He just cannot seem to find his bearings here at all.

Skaf is amused by the lovely spirit flirting with Kita. He sets to helping look for urns while they have some private time.

perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (12) + 6 = 18

Skaf wonders silently how she could still be here after so long.

sense motive: 1d20 ⇒ 2

Skaf peers through the tube but declares it useless. He wanders around inspecting the spectacles, the painting of the old man, and all the other knickknacks.

perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15

On a whim, he uses his aerokinesis to blow out the candles around the painting.

Skaf grumbles, "Winter Palace, Summer Palace. The old abandoned palace."

When they arrive, he sets to looking for anything interesting.

perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (11) + 6 = 17

"Let's get moving towards the Winter Palace. Finally!"

Skaf cheers Abolt. "That's the spirit, lad! DADDY OGRE STOMPS AROUND!"

Will attack blue to get flank bonus if he's still up. Yellow otherwise, which might actually still give flanking with Kita.

unarmed+flank: 1d20 + 1 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 1 + 2 = 15
damage: 1d6 ⇒ 2

"OGRE STOMPS AROUND!" shrieks Skaf as he assumes the ogre position, stomps his way up to the red foe, and gives him a distracting kick.

unarmed strike: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 1 = 18
damage: 1d6 ⇒ 5

DC 10

Skaf stays quiet but uses his aerokinesis to knock over the Scorpions' drinks and blow their dumplings and utensils around.

The little gnome is absolutely tickled by "OGRE STOMP AROUND!"

Skaf is very intrigued. "I'm not much of a fighter but I'm happy to learn. What does Jade Ogre style entail?"

Skaf thinks the words sound like gibberish. He focuses on Yue Xin's body language to try to figure it out.

sense motive: 1d20 ⇒ 7

Skaf launches an electric bolt at the fire sigil.

ranged touch: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (19) + 5 = 24
electricity damage: 1d6 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5

"Are we supposed to light these fireworks? That sounds noisy."

"Yes the level of formality and subtlety in this land continues to amaze me. Kita is evidently a master of these customs." The gnome soon curls up in a shady spot to wait for nightfall.

Skaf is soaking in all the instruction from Kita along with the brothers. "This samurai knows of what he speaks. I have seen his ability both in combat and also in diplomacy. You would do well to follow his example," he tells the recruits.

sense motive: 1d20 ⇒ 14
perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (10) + 6 = 16
perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (6) + 6 = 12

Skaf is able to discern a bit about the patrols but not much else.
