Tsukai's page

It was nice gaming with you all. Perhaps I will see some of you again on the boards. Hope everyone enjoys the upcoming holidays.

Tsukai lets out a hiss of frustration Smoke may cause many issues for us. Key in pocket may as well be in safe. We lose time and must act. Tsukai gives Bregolas a look of uncertainty I think you were right. Smashing door may be only option. We can try together and hope friends can do their part
Strength Check: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (15) + 2 = 17 making check to speed things along

I agree. It seems we have a choice between extremely difficult or the Impossible. I don't see any way to get the key. If we leave then we have wasted time. I agree with smashing the door in. We were steered away from that option earlier because I thought more reasonable ways of entry would present themselves. It looks as if smoking out the ship is a worse approach to achieving our goal.

If both Tsukai and Bregolas can strike the door together, would that aid in the success of breaking down the door?

Since we can't communicate with the rest of the group we will have to rely on their improvisational skills to control the situation at their end.

Paizo campaigns often have several options for completing an objective. I don't think they would have created a task that would require disable device or magic as the only options to get past an obstacle. Not every party will have either of those two classes represented. I think we can achieve our goal with the classes and skills available.

My thought was to ignite a few smoke arrows below deck and remain hidden. The captain may come below deck to check on the items in the locked room. We could attempt to knock him out, take what we need and escape under the confusion of the smoke.

This is just a thought of how we could gain access to the items we need without anyone knowing what we are doing.

If that idea doesn't work then The Air Eidolon could just rip off the captain's pants and float them down the steps.
:)

Tsukai lets out an irritated hiss. I thought key would be in pocket. Now, how do we get key from pocket to key in lock? Tsukai discusses their dilemma with Bregolas, out of sight, in the lower deck of the ship.
If we get Captain to come below, we can grab him and key. We get papers then sneak away Tsukai scratches his scaly chin as he continues to think We could make some diversion at front of ship. Maybe captain come to secure important papers. If nobody come then maybe nobody hear if we smash in door?

Tsukai looks to Bregolas and speaks quietly Taking longer than expected. Key is not here and may be in captain's pocket. We either break door or wait for someone to open it. What you think?

If nothing is located on this level then Tsukai will suggest moving back to the unlocked room on the level above them

Tsukai whispers to Bregolas We need to find key. Maybe one is hidden here or in room above
Tsukai searches area for any hidden compartments or possible keys that were dropped by an absent minded captain
Perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13

Perhaps no keys but Tsukai did find some interesting toenail clippings. He would swear that one looked just like Venture-Captain Valsin but decides to keep that thought to himself

Are there windows in the room that would allow us to enter from a different way or are there any other options to gaining entry? I wasn't sure if we noticed any keys in the room above us or if there are any tools that would allow us to pry the door open with less noise than bashing it?
Disable device is a class skill for Tsukai, but he doesn't have any skill points allocated to it

Tsukai looks at the lock and then back at Bregolas No skill to open. All yours Tsukai steps back and lets Bregolas use his door opening skills. He makes his way back to the stairway and listens for anyone approaching
Perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (7) + 4 = 11

Tsukai continues to move stealthily, across the ship's deck, towards the captain's chambers. He examines the door for anything unusual or sounds from inside. He checks to see if the door is locked and will enter if all is good.
Perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22
Stealth: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22

Tsukai contemplates leaping into the water, but realizes the noise may attract unwanted attention. He watches cautiously and eases himself into the chilly waters.
Stealth: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21

Waiting on Bregolas to enter, Tsukai begins paddling his way to the aft of the ship.
Swim: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (13) + 2 = 15

Brew, Tsuaki purchased a snorkel but I am unsure how it aids someone in water. I says very little about the benefit, other than the obvious, and nothing about any adjustments to skill checks. He will use it if it will provide partial cover to aid in stealth or to increase a swim check.

Tsukai produces a grappling arrow from his pack and addresses Brogolas If no other way, we can use this!

Tsukai nods to Bregolas I can swim if water not too choppy

Tsukai examines the ship for the best place to stealthily climb aboard that is closest to captain's quarters
Perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20

If two of us poking a thumb at himself and Bregolas sneak aboard. Can you two keep others busy? Any ideas if things go bad? Tsukai awaits for a response as he continues to scan his surroundings

I meant no offense. It seems that this scenario started off strange because of the lack of input. If you follow the chronological order of the posts, it was already decided what the first task was going to be. I thought you purposefully made that last post because Auryn may have her head in the clouds at times.

Tsukai closely examines the color of Auryn's hair then shrugs and speaks in a low tone We are seeking out ship and retrieving papers.

Brew, sent you a pm about asking a player, from another campaign, to join in the group if we need players.

Tsuaki stands with a blank stare on his face. His scaly features not revealing his current mood and his unblinking eyes looking ahead as if unaware of his surroundings. Slowly, a soft hiss is released from his mouth I was thinking for a moment. Ship may be best attempt at success. I can scale side of ship, with another to get papers. Need someone who knows what papers look like. Others can distract crew. Maybe as inspectors of cargo. Maybe as business men wanting to ship cargo....whatever makes sense...they decide. May not look good if all try to sneak in. Thoughts? Tsukai's lidless eyes then fall upon those who have spoken to join in the adventurer.

Tsukai lets out a hissing snort after Bregoloas' last comment "Never would guess to be true"
He then gives a toothy grin and looks for any other familiar faces to show

Tsukai's Purchases

2 potions of cure light wounds: 100gp
Blunt arrows (20): 2 GP
5 smoke arrows: 50gp
snorkel: 5sp
periscope: 20gp

Total: 172 gp & 5sp

After listening to the lists of tasks Tsukai replies Getting documents and finding alchemist notes are my choice. I know not how to approach other task. Group decides what is best and I follow

Tsukai will make a few purchases before leaving. I will make a list later today. Good to be back and finishing out to arc. Hope everyone has been doing well.

Tsukai steps up and nods in greeting to his fellow agents Good to see everyone again

He turns his scaly head in the direction of Auryn as she speaks Trust must be earned. I trust nobody unless actions prove they can be. It is wise to be cautious. I wonder what we must do tobearn trust of Apsis agent?

Tsukai reclines in a chair at the lodge wondering when his next assignment will come. His eyes examine the people shuffling through for any familiar faces as he flips a shuriken through his fingertips.

Preparing for the final installment? Dot me in.

Ark, if you are looking to get your feet wet as a GM then you can count me in. Just let me know if you want us to run new characters or if you want to pick up from Brew's campaign arc.

PURCHASES

2 cure light wounds potions: 100gp
1 Metal Buckler: 5gp
Apply Masterwork to buckler: 150

Total cost: 255GP

The non proficiency penalty for using the buckler should be negated by the masterwork properties

No worries here. Just make it up to us with bad d20 rolls on the next scenario.

Brew, should we hold off on posting any purchases until the new game starts? The shopping list is small and I don't want the post to get overlooked if made at the wrong time.

No dayjob check for Tsukai. A joke was made in a previous post. Brew, I will PM you the PFS # once I get to my PC.

How much can Tsukai make washing dishes at the Paunch?

I am game. Post it and I will dot it. I will be sure Tsukai stocks up on some healing items before he ventures out this time.

Good you sent us to pick up simple package and not something important Tsukai let's out a hissing chuckle Just another walk in park Tsukai then sets his pack on the table and takes a step back

Tsukai takes the arm of the grey robed caster and leads him over to his companion. Surrender shows wisdom. We now show mercy. Sit here. Tsukai points to a place near the wall and crouches down in front of the caster. He begins to stare intently into the caster's eyes and his voice takes on a relaxing and hypnotic tone. We will not harm you or your companion. We just seek answers
Tsukai uses hypnotic gaze DC(14)

Please tell us why you are here and why you attacked?

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8

I guess at this point Tsukai should just go ahead and bite him for all the good that skill check did. I also just noticed Auryn's post and don't want to delete post because of skill roll.

Thanks for the reminder. I will leave it up to Brew and can roll damage later if he gives the thumbs up.

It is good the somebody is taking on that role. Tsukai is not having any success. Perhaps the Pigs Paunch is in need of a dishwasher.

This is too funny. The bubbly and cheerful Auryn has turned into the a$$ kicker of the party. Come on gents, join me in picking up heavy things to win back our masculinity....oomph! My back! :-)

Tsukai takes a step forward and attempts to give the mage a smack in return

Nunchaku Attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 2 = 11

Tsukai hisses at the mage Time is running out friend. I will find sweet spot on your head soon enough

The mystery has been solved!!!!
Cyclone is the one who has been sucking up all the good rolls and conveniently dispensing them at it's leisure. Please send some my way!

As Tsukai begins his move he can hear Bregolas shout for assistance. Having already committed to his course of action, Tsukai smiles and wonders if Bregolas can read his mind.

He bounds into position and takes a swing at the robed caster.
Nunchaku Attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (8) + 2 = 10
Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 2 = 5

How can you attach photos to a character that are not included in Paizo's character portraits? I found an image that better represents what Tsukai looks like and want to display it somehow.

Just a question about placement of our adversaries. Should purple guy have moved yet to get flanking on Breg? It may not matter since he just got chomped but I am not sure if purple and Green got flipped

Tsukai speaks in a hushed tone to the party I will move to a better position

Tsukai takes off at a run, moving behind the party and using the pillars as cover

Tsukai can run 150' and he is attempting to get behind the pillar to the left of Mr. Blue and Ms Green. I will move token when I get home. I last stated that Tsukai had his nunchaku at the ready. He will be using that weapon instead of using an action to draw his sword

Papers and a pretty gem. Tsukai waves his hands at the vast amounts of information Do we take everything or bring society here?

Tsukai's eyes slowly examine the room and it's contents, from a distance. Odd place for room. Maybe papers tell where artifacts are hidden. Keep eyes open for any traps. Room looks too inviting
Tsukai again examines the floor and walls before entering the carved chamber
Perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (17) + 4 = 21

Concerned that there may be cramped conditions in the passageway, Tsukai readies his nunchaku and falls in behind the rest of the party. Think anyone has used this recently? Tsukai addresses the group as he scans the floor and walls for any recent activity aside from their own
Perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13

Tsukai watches in amusement as the group discusses what to do and on the use of the word wiffle. No such word exists in my language. Good thing you are all here to figure it out. I will stay out of way until door opens

Tsukai lets out an amusing snort. A very similar thought had crossed his mind as his companions shared their thoughts. I hope we are close to finding answers to riddles.

Tsukai examines the memorial to the fallen Many think themselves to be gods. The price should be high for such vanity. I pity those who do not learn from other's mistakes. Tsukai searches for the names from the list
Perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19
