Tara Firma's page

"I-I suppose could" Tara sputters, before stepping off the porch, heading back the way the group came. "Check if he's really been killed!" she calls over her shoulder.

Sorry for taking so long, things have been crazy since I got back.

Letting you know, I will be out of town, and unable to access the internet until the 6th of January. Feel free to control as needed in combat, otherwise assume she follows everyone else. Thanks.

"Whatever we do, we better do it quick. They'll only be down there for a little bit longer. Tara replies, stepping further away from the pit.

Step back to O7. Forgo other actions.

"Woah, ahh!" Tara cries, not expecting the slope to angle as much as it did. Barely catching her balance, she quickly loads and fires another bolt, this time at the most injured-looking one. This shot fly much more accurately, piercing the shoulder of one of the goblin. Um, a little help here? They'll only stay down for so long." she calls out to her fellow pathfinders, before stepping away from the edge.

I can't believe I didn't notice that about Create Pit. All this time, I've been running it wrong. Sorry about that.

Seeing the rest of the party focusing on the shaman, Tara drops the scroll she had drawn, instead pulling out a loaded crossbow from another pocket in her pack. She sidles over the the edge of the pit, looks down at the goblins, and fires a bolt, the shot landing nowhere near any of them.

My character's updated to the revised version of the class.

Change log
Arcane pool dropped from 15 to 10 point maximum.
Counterspell now requires a slot higher than the spell being cast, instead of just one equal.
Spell Tinker was split into two exploits. The duration +/-50% is still called Spell Tinker, and the suppression was made into Spell Disruption. I've taken Spell Disruption.
I also fixed an error that was not a part of revision: Expeditious Excavation is not affected by Spell Focus (Conjuration) since it's transmutation, not conjuration. I thought of it basically as "Lesser Create Pit", which was incorrect.

Also did the game stall? What happened?

Seeing the creatures leap out, Tara calls out "Goblins!", entirely too late. After watching Chidubem charge towards the goblins eastwards, she refocuses her attention to the three prone near her. A gaping pit opens up from around them, and all three tumble in, audible thumps and cracks of bone coming from the bottom. Turning around and stepping over, she draws forth a rolled up piece of parchment.

Listening closely, a young woman is present, scribbling away into a small book, muttering under her breath. Of reasonable attractiveness, she wears a sturdy, if simple, skirt, with a well-worn shirt, to which are attached number of rolled up papers and writing implements. A golden headband with blue and purple gems rests on her head, while a small, dull reddish rock with visible cracks orbits. A small pouch and a dagger are attached to her belt, though the dagger appears to have not been used in quite some time. A red cloak rest loosely over her shoulders, fluttering softly in the wind, accentuating her blond hair.

As the captain finishes speaking, she snaps the book shut with an audible clap, before tossing it almost haphazardly over her shoulder into her pack. She nods, hearing the questions of her compatriots, before speaking. "I'm Tara Firma, pleased to meet y'all." she says, softly speaking with a Southern Andoren accent, before turning to Captain Dreng. "You mentioned 'upsetting the balance of power' in Kaer Maga, implying multiple factions striving for, if not control of the city, at least influence. Anything we should know of said factions, who are they, who to avoid, who will leave alone? That sort of thing." As she speaks, she pulls a different book effortlessly out of her pack, and prepares to take notes.

I think I've finally reached something I'm satisfied with, so I'm good to go.

Changed a few crunch things that I got wrong, or wasn't satisfied with, and changed purchased items. Also, are you alright with scribingd spells into my spellbook? With the assumption of paying for scrolls and scribing costs, and taking 10 on the spellcraft rolls, I could have a number of other spell in my book. beyond those given by the class. I just wanted to know if that was alright to do, because a considerable amount of money would go to such ends if it is okay. Thanks.
