Congrats on the promotion! I understand, I am preparing to buy a house in the next few months so some things just end up on the backburner. Really, thanks for letting us know. I've had a couple of campaigns where the GM just disappeared, so it's good to know that good things are happening and priorities are changing, so we have some closure.
Thoros nods to Franz and checks his buckler and pulls out his morningstar. He gets the attention of the people up top and signals for them to wait, but be ready.
"Send me down third. That way if needed, I can provide some healing support. And I am not too shabby in close combat."
"We'll have to get much closer to figure that out."
Thoros prepares his normal spell list for the day. He follows Ben as the group heads for the cabin.
Thoros converts one of his remaining spells over to Cure Light Wounds.
"Before we bed down for the night, anyone need any healing, I have some spells left and hate to let them go to waste when I will just receive more in the morning?"
Before Rolly can completely cover the man, Thoros spends a moment praying to Erastil while laying his hands on the man's chest. Helping Rolly cover him up, he stands and looks at the others. "This man has only been dead a few hours and those icicles are the cause. I am guessing those were magically thrown at him."
Thoros realizes the boots are attached to a dead man. He looks around trying to decide if it is safe.
If all looks safe he kneels next to the dead man checking him over more thoroughly than the dwarf may have done.
After checking him over he looks up at his new companions. "You knew this man?, he asks.
"No, I can detect magic on it, but I can't figure out which school it's from. Either just because of my lack of training or just poor concentration. Can't tell." Thoros shakes his head.
forthepie at gmail dot com for me.
GM: I'll remember that and give you both at the same time
Thoros casts detect magic centered on the snowman.
"Dead things? What dead thing?" asks Thoros.
"It's not getting any lighter here, Rolly you want to lead us on following the trail? I have a feeling we'll be camping soon, unless we can all see in the dark, as well as the dwarf. As we camp, I'll use my last prepared spells to heal any wounds and provide any help I might. Erastil will provide me with new spells in the morn."
"I'll take the dagger, it might come a time when having something sharp and pointy would be a good thing." "Mother Theodora, is she a cleric or priestess?'
"Then I shall go with your group." Thoros looks over at Franz.
"Village?" Thoros asks, "I thought you were on the trail of some friends or some such? Are you planning on heading to the village, now? I mean, my companion and I were hoping to find a village for the night, but you seemed to be on a mission of your own. Although a mission that seems in trouble with your lack of healing abilities...." Thoros' voice just fades away at the end. Thoros looks at Franz looking at the raven, then says, "As my companion mentioned, my name is Thoros Chandler, cleric of Erastil and I've been sent to the area to ascertain the rumors of cold creeping in to the area. As you know, it seems a bit early for winter's approach."
DM: Apparently, Hero Lab has failed me. Not sure why it's showing up in the spell list, I don't think I have any non-Paizo sources loaded but sure enough, I go to the d20 site and Cure minor isn't there. I'll make sure all the rest of my spells chosen are okay, but I guess nevermind on the initial question. I guess that would be a bit overpowered.
DM: How do you want to handle the Cure Minor Wounds casting? I can basically cast it over and over again, so I can eventually heal everyone up. Out of combat is really when this would show up. Basically it's 1 HP per cast. Do you want me to just put in an RP of basically healing everyone up? Would you rather I not take the spell? I don't want to ruin the game either way.
Thoros nods to Franz, thankful the young mercenary was able to determine no immediate danger. "Looks like we have a slight impasse here. I've healed your companions, but the lady needs some more healing. As you could not have missed, I did so without a by your leave or any thought to my own safety. In addition, had I wanted to bring you harm, I am quite certain at least 2 of you would be dead. Even I couldn't miss the two people laying on the ground. And I am just a mere cleric of Erastil. So, as my martial trainer at the temple was found of saying, 'Simmer down, no one needs to hear you pretend your meaner than you are.' Now, it looks like the immediate area is clear. Would you like me to continue seeing to your wounds or should my companion and I try to find the road? And by the way, remind me to box that old woman's ears next we meet." Thoros grins at Franz, then stares at the three others for their answer.
Thoros realizes that his first attempt didn't do nearly enough good, so he mutters a few more words as he glances upward.
Feeling the weakness of the holy power flowing through his body, Thoros kneels between the wounded and stares toward the sky, flakes of snow hitting him the face as he says, "Erastil hear my plea!
Feeling a more powerful thrum of holy power through him, Thoros grins. "Well let's see what Erastil's blessing has done for you two." Thoros examines the two injured people.
With that, Thoros stands and looks to Franz for his answer.
No worries, either way.
What time of day is it? I can convert my memorized spells to cure spells, but I'd rather not run myself out of spells at 10AM, but it's toward the end of the day, I am more likely to convert them. I have the Orison Cure Minor Wounds, which basically allows me to cure 1 HP per cast. Figured that's an easy way to top each person up, but if we are about to be attacked, I best use bigger heals.
Thoros begins to follow Franz, realizing by his behavior that the situation he's about to see isn't totally safe. Upon pushing his way past the bush Franz hid behind, he notices the people. The rest of the situation blends into the background as his practiced eye notices the wounded. "Perhaps I can be of more efficient service. A trap is no good, if no one is here to deal with the aftermath, correct? Franz, perhaps you should make sure we aren't to be attacked, please? Grabbing his holy symbol from his cloak pocket, Thoros mutters a few words and glances upwards. A pulse of holy power radiates outward from him.
Just as Franz steps away, Thoros mutters a quick word and reaches out and touches him.
works for me. I am ready
Thank you. I am here for your divine casting needs. Basically my vision for Thoros is to be more martial/buffing during combat and then tend to healing after combat is over. As soon as I can afford it, I'll get a CLW wand. I have scribe scroll so i'll do some cure spells for scrolls at some point. While he has a longbow due to Erastil, he'll probably use that to attack things not in melee and then close to melee to hit them with his morningstar/mace/whatever he has at that point weapon. Plus then he can move around some to deliver touch spells.
Okay, no worries, I was thinking if everyone had one, I could adjust some things to get a mule. I am probably going to adjust my str/cha scores, basically flip-flop them, no huge changes, but I'll run the changes through Hero Lab and reset my crunch tonight. I don't think I'll get to light encumbrance, but what can you do, gotta have stuff.
Probably encumbrance. 10 Strength is weaker. I am seriously considering moving some points from Charisma to Strength. In fact, I may do that. Is a mount needed? I am not sure what everyone else is using...
DM, Franz: I am good with travelers passing through. Perhaps I could be a "circuit rider" going around ministering to the smaller villages in the name of Erastil and Franz could be someone who is acting as a bodyguard sort?
Okay, going with druid, I'll update the alias in a moment.
Well, here's my first try on the cleric. Not sure how much healing I'll do to start. I think making the enemy dead faster might be a bit better, but can't have many more spells than what I have, healing bonuses and the like. |
