Sorry to hear about you losing your job. Hope everything else is going okay for you. Thanks for checking in and letting us know!


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

Looking at the recruitment thread I see lots of melee beaters, mostly barbarians. Pretty good chance we could both get away with ranged builds.

I should have my background up before too long, description will be cake after that.

Gol Durnit. Too many aliases.

Looking at the rooms, would I be able to get away with a store front and attached artisan's workshop? Since, for the time being it would only be me working in there I could just lay out my bedroll and sleep there.

It's not high living, but Kilo is just getting started here.


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

I had planned on starting already teamed up. We should probably coordinate out backstories. I'm pretty open to whatever but it would have to come after the death of the twin sister.


I had a couple questions over in the Mummy's Mask discussion thread Stormcrow.


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

Also, side question, was using the random background generator to give me seeds for an idea and I ended up with a twin sister. Would it be cool if I wrote it into my background that my sister and I were a vigilante team early on and she was killed in front of me while out patrolling the city to account for the love lost trait? It can also account for my drawbacks as a defining moment that causes my character's meticulous and overprotective drawbacks.


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

So wrapping up my characters crunch and I got to something I have a question on. My character's social identity is as a small potatoes gunsmith. I'd like for him to own a shop or stall, to avoid questions from an owner or boss. What would the gp cost be on either an all-in-one shop or a stall and a smallish space to use as living quarters and workshop?


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

I was getting the agathiel and wildsoul archetype imagery requirement confused. I can look like whatever. I'm still thinking bird of prey, cause that's classic.


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

peanut butter and jelly. Boom, team name decided.


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

dog and butterfly?


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

Only if you'll be my Booster Gold.

Cerulean Coleoptera?

Cerulean Cootie?


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

I agree on the Avenger/Stalker idea, just so we're not doubling up on party roles. With the archetypes I was looking at have no required specialization. If you go Serial Killer it has Stalker required and I don't mind taking Avenger.

I was thinking of taking the Falconine Natural course. So I have to have a birdy theme to my Vigilante Aspect. I'm kicking around bird names for my character.

I mean, we don't need to be Hero/sidekick. We could easily be a team-up, meaning we won't really need to coordinate names, just backstories. Though I could take the name Darter, a bird ambush predator and we could find a theme there.

Just some ideas to kick around.


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

I'm looking at a Wildsoul/Gunmaster Vigilante. What kind flavor are you looking at Jindar?


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

should I post new rolly stats on the new recruitment thread? I'm going to see what I get and what I'm inspired to play. I was KIND OF thinking about maybe also rolling up a vigilante if you wanted to do a batman and robin thing Jandar-Ki.


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

If we switch, I'd probably make up a new character... or maybe just tweak Varisia. We won't really need two trap-finders I don't think and we'll get more utility out of even a straight bard.


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

I'd be fine with either. The new/updated CotC seems really interesting to me.


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

I'm fine with recruiting again, though if you'd prefer I'd also be fine with starting something new.


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

Still here, just waiting on my turn


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

'I wasn't talking in my sleep again, was I?' Varisia laughs nervously.


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

Will Save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (10) + 5 = 15


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

'Nazis!' Varisia shouts as he startles awake at Jandar-Ki's kick. He seems confused for a moment at the unfamiliar word, then remembering the present danger he stands, drawing his club. He swings the weapon at the Sandperson.

You get your pick of actions to take an AoO against me

Club: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 2 = 16

damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

Varisia shifts slightly in his sleep 'Give me the whip.' He stirs again and his arm jerks slightly. 'Give me the whip!' He says a little more clearly.


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

Let's not forget life day to all my Wookies out there.


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

'No ticket...' Varisia smirks as he mumbles in his sleep.


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

Still here as well.


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

Will Save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

Varisia sees the sandperson trying to get to it's feet. He lashes out with his whip again.

Whip Trip AoO: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

Varisia removes his whip from his belt and in one fluid movement lashes out at the Sandperson's legs.

Whip Trip: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (16) + 5 = 21


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

I think I got you where you wanted to be, I'm one the northern side of the room near the exit, Zohreh and Jandar-ki are at the opposite opening. I put you next to them but so there's a line through the center of the room between you and I


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

just waiting on Fionnid


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

'The heart is a fickle thing, better to end like this than the way it did with Zariya and I.'


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

Placed

'Can you tell us what other kinds of beasties have taken up residence on the grounds and where they might be?' Varisia has begun edging up towards the room to the North.


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

The Shadow knows!


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

'She's the Lady of Graves. The Goddess of fate and... death. But, good death?' Varisia seems conflicted with the last part.


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

'Pharasmins. They're hiring people to explore and secure the Necropolis' After assessing the creature Varisia takes a few subtle steps away.


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

'We were assigned to explore the mansion and clear out any hazards that might remain. Is there some way we could help you get free of your service?' Varisia asks with genuine concern.

With my previous knowledge check would I know if sandpersons tend to go a little rampagey when they get freed?


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

Whoops, looks like the forums ate my last post. I'll wait for a response to Jandar-ki's post before I turn the charm on again.


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

'Let's not talk about the lady like she's not here in front of us' Varisia continues to watch, fascinated.


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

'The best cure for a broken heart is a full one' Varisia says, watching the figure coalesce.


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

Varisia pulls up and stops in his tracks. He looks the forming figure over and flashes it a smile.

'Hello, what have we here?' He says, oozing charm.

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 9 = 16

Knowledge(applicable): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26 or only +4 if it's local or planes


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

Varisia nods and carefully moves into the atrium. He moves along the eastern wall, checking the door before moving across to check the northern opening.

Stealth: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19

Perception b15: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16

Perception eastern hall: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20

Perception b18: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16

'Stairs up to the next level, looks clear for now. Think we should fully explore the first floor before moving up?' Varisia moves over to take a look at the Atrium.


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

was scoping out B12


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

Varisia hold his hand out to his allies as his whirls and presses himself against the wall next to the door behind him. He cautiously peeks around the corner

Perception: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

Will Save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14

Varisia, steeled to battle the undead in the room, shrugs off the effects of the vision.

I assume, also, sorry, when I read your post this morning I thought it was Jandar and Fionnid


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

Varisia shoots Zohreh a smile.

'Tell Shelyn thanks for me next time the two of you chat'


Male Human Bard(Archaeologist) 2 | Init +3(+5 in ruins) | Perc +8 | AC 20 T 13 FF 20 CMB +5 CMD 15 | HP 16/19 | F +5 R +4 W+5 (+1 vs traps and other nat hazards in ruins) | Arch Luck 7/8 | Spells 1st 2/3

seeing Zohreh begin to draw upon the power of Shelyn, Varisia swings his club at the skeleton nearest him, hoping that their combined strikes drop the undead.

'Surprise, bonehead!' he shouts at the skeleton.

Club: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12

Damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6
