Yogensha Harumi's page

Harumi scratches her chin.

"Pretty sure I could fake a loadstone if a creature needed to be hit by one, but for a ritual I'm going to assume we need the real thing. 'Cmon, let's see if the children can figure out where to find these."

See if we can't communicate with the children what we need.

Harumi will join Azrael

Esoteric Lore?: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (15) + 7 = 22
Harumi closes her eyes and tries to sense any curses, haunts, or other weird things her spiritual senses can detect
If Esoteric Lore doesn't work, Arcana and occultism are 3 less, and nature/religion are 2 less

Harumi's Eyes flutter open. She feels aweful and close to death, but is somehow breathing. While she clearly just wants to climb in a hole and hide, she realizes that if she does, the thing might kill her if she flees. Reluctantly she determines to fight on.
<>Grab Staff
<>Grab Lantern
<>Attack from floor

attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 19
damage if hit: 1d6 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 3 + 2 = 7
If I hit the creature still has weakness 3 vs. my attacks.

Quickly Harumi grabs up her lantern and quickly signs to the children:
'Do not enter! Strange anomolies in room!"

She then turns to the rest of her group.
"Yea . . . yeah, that's the center of all this weirdness alright. All the wierd teleportation effects? That's where it's all coming from."

"I'm worried . . . this . . . 'pocket dimension' we seem to be in for a lack of a better term seems to be more and more unstable the farther away we get from the first floor lobby. I would . . . suggest not disrupting it further before we find a way out."

"Yes, grab the children, I'll see if I can't figure out what is going on here."

Esoteric Lore (Curse, haunt?): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (16) + 7 = 23
If Esorteric lore isn't applicable, then 20 Arcana or Occultism, or 21 nature or Religion.

Locke gets out a journal and charcoal pencil to make notes upon. "We may need to get the students to open the doors if this is a consequence of our condition. Gwen! See if you come back the way you came."

"I don't believe that nessissary. If that one goes to this here, and that one leads to that one over there, then we know that reversing course doesn't put you back where you started."

If one puts you to 2, and 2 puts you to 6, then that proves you can't go back the way you came.

I'll try this one here.

<>Stride through door 3

"I'll take this door" Harumi moves to door 3.

Diplomacy to communicate: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18

“Failsafe”

"It's like these Kits have no concept that we are literally trapped in another dimention. Oh well . . . at least they pay attention . . . sometimes. Now that they are back in one place, let's see if we can finally get them working on getting us out of this mess."

She shivers momentarily.

"The faster we get out of here the better."

Harumi will study red for a second.
discern weakness: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17
If that identifies, she'll trigger his mortal weakness if it is 3 or more, otherwise she'll give him a personal antithesis . . . unless it crit fails?

attack 1: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (10) + 8 = 18
damage if hit: 1d6 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 3 + 2 = 7

attack 2: 1d20 + 8 - 5 ⇒ (16) + 8 - 5 = 19
damage if hit: 1d6 + 3 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 3 + 2 = 7

Athletics: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19

Harumi twirls her priest's staff around before slamming it down on the ground with enough force that the vibrations make it all the way to the children's realm of existence.

"By the spirits I hope I was not as impertinent as a young one." she mutters.

"Oh come on, this is worse than hearding kogitsune. . . . I um . . . I . . . kits? Kits. Keeping these children in line is worse than hearding kits."

diplomacy to communicate: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18

Harumi uses her lantern to flash the pathfinder hand symbol for the command 'stay' to the other children.

"Alright, let's go see what trouble those two have gotten into."

"C'mon, we should get back to the other kids and also start looking around for these . . . focuses? And look for this room we are supposed to bring them to."

”I doubt the focuses, uh, foci? Focu-, sorry, Taldane isn’t my native language. I uh, I doubt the focuses are the things the kids need to find. At least I HOPE we don’t have to drag an owl bear statue anywhere.”

[ooc]Start searching for ‘focuses.’ Me and anyone that can see me gets +1 to perception with for things within 20’ of me that the lantern lights.

Harumi tries to take several breaths to calm herself down and wipes off some of the goo covering her fur. She's clearly not used to being neigh incorporeal and stuck in another dimension.

"Okay, so . . . okay. Failsafe. That could . . . that could mean that the gremlins were a failsafe. Or . . . or this entire situation with us out of sync is a failsafe somehow . . . or we need to activate a failsafe to fix this situation. That Goblin child seems to be quite knowledgable about the ins and outs of being a Pathfinder, maybe she'll know."

fort save: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25
<>Stride to Yellow
<>Strike
attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (15) + 8 = 23

damage if hit: 1d6 + 3 + 2 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 + 2 + 3 = 10

reflex: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20
<>Step out of the gunk
<>Descern Weakness on yellow
Esoterica lore: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26
(I presume a 20 lets me get some information. If a success I get the creature's highest vulnerability (or I get that it has none), If a crit I get all of its vulnerabilities, weaknesses, resists, and immunities)

<>Bonk with Staff
attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11
(assuming that doesn't hit)

"You got everything covered here? Good, Alec is trying to break into the restricted section. I'll keep an eye on these guys, you try to disuade him from breaking into sealed pathfinder documents."

She will then follow the 'cooking group' back to the main hall.

@GM So 'Esoteric Lore' lets you: "You become trained in Esoteric Lore, a special lore skill that can be used to Recall Knowledge regarding haunts, curses, and creatures of any type [. . .]"

Up to you if our current prediciment is considered a 'curse' or 'haunt' type thing. Okay if not, just wanted to get an official word.

”Oh, what is it now!?” Harumi complains.

”Igarise, keep zapping if he tries to get in the vault, I’m gonna see what that commotion is.”

Move to kitchen

diplomacy: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12
Harumi flashes her lantern down at Alac trying to get him to notice that she is observing him, but he seems to intent in his work to see.

"Stop . . . it's called the restricted section for a reason . . ."

The Kitsune rubs the bridge of her nose.
"Okay, we need someone who's good at communicating with each of the three groups. Try to bring them back here. Maybe that involves helping them with their homework, I dunno. Also, we need someone who is good at dimensional stuff to figure out how this happened to us?

I'll Take Alric, I seem to have a rapport with him."

"What? No! Don't split-don't they realize that we are stuck like this? We could use their help getting unstuck!"

Identify Owlbear: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19

The Kitsune walks over to the stuffed owlbear and examines it closely, looking at it from multiple angles. She's obviously still apprehensive about their whole ordeal, but seems to be getting better at setting things aside and focusing on the work.

"Apologizes . . . I'm not sure exactly . . . I'm not from this half of the world, but word reached Minkai about an emperor from Taldor . . . The first emperor I think. Staavian? Sutaabein? Someone the first. He had an owlbear companion with a curious mark on it's talon much like this one. I only recall because it is so rare to be able to tame such a beast. At any rate, there is only one plaque and one curiosity left so these two obviously go together."

diplomacy: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (18) + 7 = 25

Using her lantern, Harumi puts out some pathfinder signs: "Taldor. First Emperor. Owl, Nest"

Harumi takes a few deep breaths and tries to calm herself down. ”Calm down, everything will be fine. Focus on the problem, no need to panic.”

nature: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23

”Huh, that gemmed spiral thing I think is a bedazzled Narwall horn. Oh, I get it, that poem about moving through the seas is supposed to go to the Narwall horn.”

It is obvious she is trying to put the strangeness out of her mind as she focuses on the problem. It is still apparent she is nervous

Gonna stop posting so others get a chance to play.

Harumi will turn her magical lantern on full blast against a wall and use her other hand to put pathfinder signs in the light, trying to put it in the Goblin’s line of sight.

Diplomacy: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (19) + 7 = 26

(Professor/teacher/scholar) missing. Pathfinders here. (Crossroads/path/maze) broken?

"Well, they are all staying together for the moment, so that's good at least . . . Maybe one of these books holds the key?"

Harumi will start skimming the open books (assuming I can't turn the pages, but maybe I can figure out what the books are about.)

"Any of you have any ideas?"

"We'd better follow the students. I doubt anything out here is the solution for our problem. Many pathfinder lodges have magic items, we might be able to jury-rig one of them to shift us back into reality."

”Children! Children, we are right here! Can you hear us?”
Harumi will blink her magical lantern on and off several times trying to see if the magic light (actually can counteract magical darkness) can get the kids’ attention.

Religion: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12

@GM I don’t actually have bardic lore, I have Esoteric Lore. Lets me recall knowledge on any CREATURE. I put it in the bardic lore area because that was the closest thing to what I have. I also have dubious knowledge (because this class is a nightmare for secret GM rolls)

Feel like you might have missed my interaction with Alec

diplomacy: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18

"Why thank you for volunteering to help Alec. I've only been in the maze once before, and we went . . . well, quite a bit farther afield."

She then holds up her Minkai-style lantern which lights itself, producing a bright light within 20 feet. Strangly, the light from the lantern seems to throw everything into sharp recess, as if it is the perfect light to highlight the nature of everything within 20 feet.

All allies, including the teachers and kids, get +1 to perception checks made within the 20' lantern light.

Harumi gently pats Alec on the back

"Well, I suppose we shouldn't waste any more time then. Alec, would you like to lead us to the connection point between the Woodsedge Lodge and here in the Grand Lodge?"

@GM: Any response to my character's worry?

Harumi will take Thandmere aside for a second.

"So . . . how are we going to get to the lodge? I'm not very familiar with this part of the world, but the journey to Gault should take . . . weeks at least, and I have hard rumors of . . . dangers in the winding paths of the maze."

An Orange Kitsune bearing a strange staff with jangaling rings on the end in one hand, and a strange foreign lantern in the other, bows fairly deeply.

”It is a pleasure to meet you, young masters. I am Yogenaha-oba. . . “she seems to catch herself some some reason, then starts again. ”Well, let’s just drop titles. My personal name is Harumi, and I am from Minkai. I haven’t had many adventures yet, though I did just get back from Arcadia helping a fey create heroes.”

Changing characters to my new thaumaturge based on discord discussion. Probably better with kids anyway.
