I also think <a href="http://spheresofpower.wikidot.com/life#toc7" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Adrenaline Surge</a> is amazing. That with Invigorate, and other Life talents that boost Invigorate can turn us into an unstoppable group! When we start meeting undead I recommend <a href="http://spheresofpower.wikidot.com/life#toc10" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Clarified Strike</a>, which should add some additional punch to your crossbow; and <a href="http://spheresofpower.wikidot.com/life#toc8" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Affliction</a> is also a good offensive power to harness your existing talents, especially the ability to apply negative conditions to opponents. I've always been very impressed with how versatile Drop Dead made the Life sphere. You don't have to just be a healbot if you are incredibly Life-focused.</p>
<p>I don't know Protection or Dark very well. Honestly, I don't see much in Protection that excites me very much. The Deflection aegis probably doesn't stack with the automatic deflection bonus we get from leveling. Barrier seems kind of cool, but it also gets in our way as much as it gets in the way of the enemy. And Dark seems to have lots of cool entrapping effects, but also seems to require significant investment to make it good, especially with only Epperson having darkvision natively. Again, it will get in our way as much as the enemy until you can invest enough talents to mitigate it. And also, most Dark effects don't last very long, so you will probably find you have to concentrate a lot. </p>
<p>If you really want another sphere besides Life that feels thematic to a Bast priestess, there's always Alteration. You could turn yourself into a big cat to jump into combat, or enlarge your familiar and send her in. My feeling is that it doesn't need quite as heavy an investment to make it work well, since you're just giving you or your allies useful traits. Or you could try out War, there's lots of great combat buffs in there, though not really very many aggressive talents. Maybe Death? Most Death talents won't work on undead, and you probably don't want an army of corpses. Nature's not very thematic, and Destruction is basically Xynlthras's gig. I still think Life is a better choice, since you're already in it and the talents will boost each other.</p>
<p>Anyway, that's my 2cp on the topic. :)</p>Since you're already invested in Life, and have taken Ranged Healing, using your Invigorate power on allies who have been injured is relatively cheap (standard action, no spell point cost) and certainly useful.

I don't mind anyone using stuff that we find, but if they want to keep it I think the sale price should come out of their share.

He tries to remember how they came up with the name, but he draws a blank. <i>One of us must have suggested it— ah, maybe because we were sitting together in the shadows of that tavern?</i> The Tooth & Hookah wouldn't have been his first choice for a gathering place, but he had to admit to himself that it was quiet and cosmopolitan— catfolk and dwarves and other foreigners weren't really out of place there, and it meant he could stay relatively unnoticed if he should happen to run into any of his former associates. </p>
<p>It was a successful outing, at least, for the five of them had agreed to join the treasure-hunting expedition into the necropolis district. Each of them surely had their own unspoken reasons, but Mahmoud didn't mind not knowing them. As long as he could rely on them to do their parts, he was sure the spoils of their expedition would be significant enough to sate any of their appetites for gold. And each of them seemed trustworthy enough, and skilled at their various areas of expertise. <i>Together we look like the shadow of a hand,</i> he smirks. <i>I guess that makes me the middle finger.</i> </p>
<p>Mahmoud himself was grateful that the priests of Pharasma had agreed to allow him to join an expedition. He knew they weren't happy about the directive for the city to open the gates to mercenary interests from overseas, but apparently it had been good for business so far. All the inner political workings of the temple and the rest of Wati were a little too complicated for Mahmoud to follow. However, he knew that they respected his loyalty to the goddess, and that he wouldn't allow the remains of the restful dead to be desecrated. That made him an ideal candidate for this mission.</p>
<p>He draws one of his daggers and flips it end over end, catching and tossing with seemingly no effort as he watches the throng of people. He spots some beggars and buskers on the far side of the square, but he doesn't see anyone he recognizes. It had been a couple of years since he himself performed in public, though he still practiced in private to keep in shape. The thrill of being in a show just wasn't the same now that he wasn't part of a troupe. He smiles. <i>I have a new role to play,</i> he thinks, <i>and the Lady of Graves draws all souls to watch.</i></p>Mahmoud stands comfortably at the edge of the square, where the other members of their group agreed to meet.

Malefactor seems a lot like a paladin, as far as what actions he takes in combat, with malediction in particular taking up your swift/immediate actions, and that means that the Berserker sphere is probably going to be really difficult for you to use effectively because you don't have a lot of free immediate actions. You probably want something that either doesn't care much about focus or that regains focus as a move action. </p>
<p>Maybe the <a href="http://spheresofpower.wikidot.com/guardian" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Guardian</a> sphere? You could take the <a href="http://spheresofpower.wikidot.com/martial-traditions#toc155" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Indifferent Defender</a> drawback and just focus on your Delayed Damage pool, adding <a href="http://spheresofpower.wikidot.com/guardian#toc3" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Cold Iron Call</a> and <a href="http://spheresofpower.wikidot.com/guardian#toc7" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Durable</a> (and maybe <a href="http://spheresofpower.wikidot.com/guardian#toc8" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Endure Pain</a>) when you can squeeze them in. Unfortunately there's still no benefit for you until you get a BAB of at least +1.</p>
<p>Or, since you already have an animal companion, the <a href="http://spheresofpower.wikidot.com/beastmastery" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Beastmastery</a> sphere might be a smart choice. <a href="http://spheresofpower.wikidot.com/beastmastery#toc14" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Faithful Friend</a> would ensure that your raven companion can always meaningfully participate in combat by aiding you, especially if you use its feats to make it a dedicated bodyguard. You'd also gain the ability to tame other animals, though I don't know how druidy/rangery you picture the character. You've got good Charisma, so your Handle Animal score will be pretty good.</p>
<p>Maybe you want to do Influence-based stuff? The <a href="http://spheresofpower.wikidot.com/warleader-sphere" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Warleader</a> sphere has some good stuff. I'd recommend taking the <a href="http://spheresofpower.wikidot.com/martial-traditions#toc234" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Lead By Example</a> drawback and the <a href="http://spheresofpower.wikidot.com/warleader-sphere#toc8" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Focusing Tactics</a> talent. This would let you set up and maintain Aggressive Flanking as a move action, Fierce Shout as a free action whenever you hit, and have your companion spend a move action to restore your martial focus.</p>
<p>I hope these musings help! I love theorycrafting characters, but I don't mean to tell you what to do as far as your build.

<p><s>I'm not sure your stats are right. We get two +2 boosts (or three +2 boosts and a -2 penalty) for race, two boosts for background, two boosts for class, and four wild boosts. That's ten boosts. By my count you have nine boosts. Now optionally you can take two more -2 penalties and one more boost, which works out to nine boosts total, but all of your stats are 10 or greater, so that would mean that you would have had to boost and penalize the same stat. If that's what you did, my apologies for questioning! :D</s></p>

Since the temple is only reluctantly on board with the Prince's directive to open the Necropolis for exploration, it would make sense that they would sponsor a group that they could trust not to defile the sacred graves of the dead, and who would bring any recovered treasure back to them instead of removing it to Avistan.</p>
<p>My character used to be an illegal treasure hunter, but now works directly for the temple, and I imagine it's known in Wati's criminal circles that he's left the trade, so to speak. Since he works directly for the Pharasmins now, I'd rather steer clear of the local thieves' guild or whatever organizations run the Wati underworld when figuring out how we got together.</p>
<p>I do feel like my character is a natural choice to recruit the group, or at least to act as the liason between the group and its sponsor, assuming my idea works for everyone. Monkeygod, if you really want to organize or lead the party, maybe my character can contact yours and then you can find the others? Or does anyone else want to be more involved in our formation? If no one else really wants to be in charge, I'm happy to do it. </p>
<p>Perhaps everyone in our party has had a reason to check out the enormous temple here in Wati, and that might be where we met. If my character is basically working security for the temple, and was told to find and recruit people for an exploration group, that would be a great reason for him to approach each of us and make an offer.</p>
<p>Not sure what a good name for the company might be, but how about "The Five Shadows" as an opener?

But since she has seven already, maybe we should give one to each of us?
<p>I don't think it's a touch attack when thrown, even without spellstrike, because it counts as an improvised ranged weapon. That means anyone who doesn't have a way to get rid of the penalty takes a -4 on the attack. However, you can throw it at the ground (AC 5) rather than at the target, and according to the language of the feat, if a person is in that square they are automatically affected by the potion. Zhandar can't do that when she spellstrikes or she won't hit with the companion spell, but there's no reason not to aim for the square if we're just trying to heal someone quickly in combat.</p>Park Song wrote:How many can you make?

<p>She hesitates in sharing so much about herself, but decides that she should do her best to impress these people beside whom she will be fighting. <b>"I mostly combine natural herbal materials into magical extracts,"</b> she admits cautiously, <b>"using principles of alchemy. Or I draw upon the inherent power of divine nature in all living things to cast spells. However, thanks to Professor Lorrimor's influence, I have learned how to read arcane spells and can prepare them from my spellbook like many wizards do. Against primarily undead enemies, I imagine the best strategy would be a spell that I call <i>magic stone</i>, which enchants ordinary rocks with extraordinary force against creatures animated by negative energy. I will also ready spells called <i>disrupt undead</i>, <i>shield</i>, and <i>true strike</i>."</b></p>
<p>She takes a deep breath and then continues to indulge what she perceives as Park's interest in her magic. <b>"These spells suggest that I should be slightly removed from our enemies, to better throw my enhanced projectiles at them. I am not really a 'front-line' fighter or a 'heavy hitter', though the things I throw at our opponents do 'pack a punch', as they say in Lepidstadt."</b> Her expression widens as she thinks of something else. <b>"Oh! Another thought occurs to me! I can summon a cloud of thick fog around us all, and transform our eyes so that they can see through it with ease, creating an imbalanced circumstance where we are concealed from our opponents but they are not concealed from us. This should be effective against most creatures that do not use magical senses or echolocation to see."</b></p>
<p><b>"I try to remain flexible, and when I mix my alchemical concoctions I can do so relatively quickly in response to detrimental circumstances. It usually takes me about a minute. I should add that my potions are brewed such that when they are thrown at a creature's feet, they explode into a vaporous mist that transfers their effects through skin. While it is probably better to wait until after a fight is over to worry about repairing our various injuries, I do have several bottles of my <i>light cure</i> remedy that I can administer in this way if we are hard-pressed. Perhaps I should also prepare a flask of <i>lesser restoration</i>?"</b></p>
<p>She pauses, and a brief flash of discomfort crosses her features, possibly from talking so much. She smiles awkwardly, showing pointed teeth. <b>"I see that you, Rajuna, do not have the sort of eyes that permit you to see without light. I assume it's dark beneath the prison. Do you usually carry a torch? We may be able to address that need with magic. And Park, what spells do you typically cast? I suspect you dabble in the spontaneous arcane magic associated with entertainers or 'bards', but my knowledge of Spellcraft tells me that there is a great variety of magical songs upon which your performances might draw.

<p>On cue, an adorable little tarsier monkey climbs out from Zhandar's cloak and perches on her shoulder. It also smells the stew and screeches at Zhandar, who nods. It scoops some of the broth and a few chunks of meat into its tiny mouth and then begins to run back and forth across Zhandar's shoulders, chittering excitedly.</p>
<p>She frowns at the flood of information about the prison. <b>"The Whispering Way? And haunts, restless spirits? It sounds like the Professor got himself involved in some nasty business."</b> She neglects to say she will help until Horm offers, and then nods agreement after a moment's thought. <b>"Anything for Professor Lorrimor.

<p>Chizzlall shakes his head. <b>"It sounds to-Chizzlall like you already have-thought it out, bright-lady. Not much-help is Chizzlall."</b></p>

<p>The next day Zsófia seeks out Sulvanii to formally make her wish, and then explores the capital city. Firstly on her mind is finding other Shelynites, preferably with some sort of shrine or temple, though in this she is disappointed. She tours the mercantile areas, seeing what sort of wares Elkheart has for sale, though she has no intention of spending any of her wages yet. When possible, she asks about the other council members, to get a sense of how they govern. She would dearly love to sit in a tavern and listen to all the gossip of the realm, but she worries she doesn't have the time to really learn much, and she doesn't want to get distracted from her focus on what is happening in Drelev.</p>
<p>She also learns a bit more about Chizzlall's origins and what brought him to Tazlford. She makes a mental note to look into the trolls in the southwestern Narlmarches as soon as she has leisure to pursue a personal quest, in gratitude for his loyal service so far.</p>[Spoiler omitted]
Zsófia leaves the gathering with a troubled look.
She returns to her rooms, with Chizzlall in tow, and once they are inside she explains to the gnome what happened. "I must pray, to ask for guidance and to marshal my thoughts. Perhaps together we can work out how I should word my intentions for that fiery wishcrafter's contract.

<p><span class=messageboard-ooc>Can he take 20, since time is not a factor? That gives him a Perception of 27 and a Disable Device of 33.</span></p>
<p>Though he would rather die than show it, he is very nervous about what will happen when the kids leave. None of the crew have any reason to think well of him, and if they plan to scatter, he reasons that they won't want a scrappy kid tagging along. If he reveals to them the treasure he's found, it's likely they will just take it.</p>
<p>Except the kids, particularly the goody-good Jewel.</p>
<p>So, when the day comes to depart, Pierce makes himself invisible again so that no one sees what he is carrying. He hopes no one is watching carefully, though maybe the rat can smell him on the boat. When they are off, he whispers to the other kids, <b><i>"Don't scream, but I'm here too. Pierce. I'm hiding so that they don't see the treasure I found."</i></b></p>
<p>Unfortunately, his spell wears off by the time they get to Clara's granny's house. He shyly hangs back while they talk, nodding when she instructs them to put their weapons in the bucket. He looks startled when Mrs. Johnson addresses him directly. <b>"They call me Pierce,"</b> he confirms, <b>"I'm, uh, I'm a friend of Captain Cl— uh, of Clara."</b></p>
<p>He reluctantly holds his rapier over but has trouble letting go of it. <b>"Do you <i>promise</i> to give it back? Only that's the only thing I have left that's mine."</b> Her iron look cows him and he drops his heirloom weapon in with a muttered <b>"Yes'm."</b></p>While the others were concerned with provisions and their animal friends, when he realized they were nearing the end of the ship's journey, Pierce decided to stealthily search the ship to find the log and other valuables that the captain would have hidden before the fateful battle that took his life. He sneaks off and turns himself invisible and goes over every inch of the captain's cabin, certain that he has seen at least one hidden compartment in the past.

Evelynda shares the details about the mantle and Ravros and his followers...Evelynda (alias of eriktd)2023-08-29T17:37:29ZRe: Forums: Play-by-Post: Blood for Blood Gameplay!Chizzlall Ironshaper (alias of eriktd)https://paizo.com/campaigns/v5748p75ivn12/gameplay&page=4#1732023-08-29T00:19:14Z2023-08-28T23:42:21Z<p>As if in a dream, Chizzlall walked next to Rumbles on his way to the castle. The big cat was much faster than he, and had to keep circling impatiently around him as he trudged forward. His unit's corporal seemed to gleefully inform the gnome that his services were no longer required in the militia, and that instead he would be serving some noblewoman in the castle. He sighed. That was what he deserved for speaking out of turn, he decided. <i>Should have kept my mouth shut, rattling on like that to those people on the road.</i> Now he was probably going to be doing something even worse, like changing bedpans or washing dishes. <i>Probably will still die in battle, but now I will be armed with a rolling pin.</i> He shakes his head.</p>
<p>Rumbles growled at him. Maybe he was picking up on Chizzlall's feelings? No, probably he was just impatient to walk faster. But Chizzlall was not anxious to begin his new life as a household servant. He had taken almost forty minutes to gather all of his possessions from the barracks, all while being watched by two of his former compatriots to make sure he didn't steal anything. <i>I suppose I'm lucky they let me collect my things at all,</i> he thinks.</p>
<p>At the castle gate, he briefly considers making a run for it. <i>No one knows where Chizzlall is,</i> he thinks. <i>If he gets out now, before battle, maybe he lives a little longer...</i> But no— he chides himself with a tsktsktsk. <b>"Chizzlall takes what Chizzlall is-given,"</b> he mutters to himself. <b>"Probably sad, probably terrible even, but that is Chizzlall's-lot in life. Better for Chizzlall to-stick with the-familiar."</b></p>
<p>Besides, it was possible that working in the castle, he might see that woman again, the one who carries with her a vision of the Crystal Rose. The thought of her prismatic beauty briefly cheered his heart. He could put up with quite a lot of bedpans and dishes to be able to see her again.</p>
<p>He bows to the guards. <b>"I'm Chizzlall,"</b> he mumbles, <b>"lately of the-Tazlford-militia. Supposed to make-report to the-Captain-Lawry for demotion-reassignment."</b> He looks at the rivercat, who looks away like he isn't at all interested in whatever is going on. <b>"Rumbles is with-me. He will-obey Chizzlall."</b></p>
<p>Just then, Zsófia pokes her head out of a door leading to the central keep. She sees Chizzlall and rushes over. <b>"There you are!"</b> she calls out. The guards briefly look startled, with their hands on their swords. Chizzlall blinks senselessly. Rumbles grooms himself. <b>"Sirs, do not worry,"</b> she says as she approaches. <b>"Chizzlall is with me. Come, my friend, we have to get ready!"</b> She sweeps her cloak in a dazzling beckoning motion and begins walking back toward the way she came. Chizzlall stares a moment, then shrugs to the guards and follows. He is barely aware that Rumbles ambles behind.</p>
<p><b>"I hope you will forgive my acting without consulting you,"</b> Zsófia explains, <b>"but I am part of a group of elite soldiers who plan to covertly engage the approaching army before they reach the town. Since we must traverse the wild land between there and here, I thought your assistance would be invaluable in our task. So, I asked the captain to reassign you to me, if you were willing."</b> While they speak, Zsófia leads the pair into the castle and proceeds to the dining room, where a large group of people are discussing battle plans in quiet voices. <b>"Do you agree? While you are working for me, I will see to your food, board, and equipment, and pay you 10 gold a month. If you need anything, you only have to ask. What do you say?"</b></p>
<p>Chizzlall nods slowly, trying to make sense of what is happening. He looks at Rumbles, and Rumbles narrows his eyes and yawns, sitting down on his haunches. <i>Is this real?</i> he thinks. <i>Maybe it is a joke. Could be a funny joke. Maybe it is best to go along with it.</i> After a long pause, Chizzlall says <b>"Okay, yes. Chizzlall agree."</b> He tries to maintain a cool, unreadable composure, but inside he is vibrating like a millpond in an earthquake. His thoughts are jumbled and incoherent, but elated. Unable to think of anything else to say, he looks around the room and fidgets.</p>As if in a dream, Chizzlall walked next to Rumbles on his way to the castle.

Runter!"</b></i></span> <span class=messageboard-ooc>(He speaks to his companion in Gnome.)</span> The creature stops, swiveling his enormous ears toward the deep gnome as he glares at Zsófia suspiciously, and he drops into a sitting position.
<p>Chizzlall looks apologetically at Zsófia and Xandarian. <b>"Ah, no— no-lady, and yes-sir. Chizzlall and Rumbles only-live here, uh, temporary-like. Chizzlall in the-Elkheart-militia, so I come-here with them."</b> He looks embarrassed at his slurred speech but attempts to push through. <b>"The-inn is ahead, sir— they are-having the-stables.

<p><b>"Chizzlall never-see others who light-walk with Shelyn,"</b> he says. <b>"Not since the-my-mother, who disappeared-into-darkness with the rest-of-my-clan. But taught Chizzlall she did, to follow the-Crystal-Rose and give-thanks for Her blessings and protection. I teach Rumbles too, but he does not have the-much-patience for the-theology."</b> He makes a clicking 'tsk-tsk-tsk' sound.</p>
<p>Zsófia gives Xandarian another look like <i>"This should be good!"</i> and follows Chizzlall. <b>"I see,"</b> she says, as she puzzles out the meaning of his words. <b>"How do you find the militia so far, may I ask? Are you ready for battle, should it come to that?"</b></p>
<p>Chizzlall shrugs. He is silent for several moments. Then he says, <b>"Chizzlall is hard-worker, not afraid-to-die. Chizzlall will hold-the-line. Rumbles too.

His animal companion, Rumbles, stretches out nearby, lounging in the shade of one of the many tall overhanging trees around which the town has been built. <i>How much longer until the reinforcements arrive?</i> he wonders, not for the first time. His impatience doesn't show on his features, since he learned long ago how to protect himself, how not to show what he was feeling, but his eyes flick again over the stretch of road before him, searching for anything out of the ordinary. <i>The impetuosity of youth! Where do you have to go? When you are my age, you will sit for hours staring at the same rock without moving, and then you will know wisdom!</i> He could still hear his father's quiet voice thundering in his head.</p>
<p>He stretches out his hand towards Rumbles, and the rivercat nudges it slightly with his snout before pulling back with a huffy snort. <i>All right,</i> Chizzlall thinks, <i>I'll leave you alone.</i> He knew he should probably join the rest of the militia to try and establish relationships with the men and women alongside of which he would soon be fighting, but he felt absolutely no connection with any of them. He was the smallest member of the group by a dramatic margin, and as infantry the tactics they were learning were more about fighting as a team in a phalanx formation. While he did wield a polearm, Chizzlall felt very out of place among them, whether he was riding on Rumbles or not. He felt like an outsider, admittedly by choice. Since they had arrived in Tazlford three days ago, more and more he had been spending his free time on his own. <i>That's probably going to get me killed,</i> he thinks somberly, and grimaces.</p>
<p>Instinctively, he clutches the wooden amulet his mother gave him on his 40th birthday, tracing the circle of the songbird's tail with his thumb. <i>The goddess watches you,</i> he heard his mother's voice intone in his head. <i>Even in darkness, her light shines. She sees you, my little Ironshaper, and she knows your worth. You are beautiful.</i> Chizzlall sighs. He hoped it was true, and that the goddess would protect him. Maybe it was because of Shelyn that he was here and his parents were not. <i>Am I safe, or are they safe?</i> he wonders. <i>Probably neither of us. In time the darkness will take us all, and maybe that, too, will be beautiful.</i></p>
<p>Rumbles lets out a low growl. The gnome turns slowly to see if the cat was looking at him, but his hackles were raised and his attention was focused on the road. <i>Something is happening,</i> Chizzlall thinks. <i>The enemy? The reinforcements?</i> He slides off of the rock and peers along the way, not able to see much but listening intently. He knew Rumbles probably smelled something, but that his eyes were better and he would likely see it before the cat did. His hand twitched, ready to draw his weapon off of his back if it should become necessary.</p>
<p>The sight nearly blinded him. There, walking down the road in the company of a tall, almost angelic-looking blue-haired man leading a horse, was the goddess herself. She radiated a shining aura, all the colors of the rainbow, though her clothes were different from how Chizzlall had seen her depicted. Still, there was no doubt that he had experienced a vision, and that this woman walked in the light of the Crystal Rose. Without thinking, Chizzlall finds himself running forward to meet her, and he throws himself at her feet. <b>"Goddess,"</b> he says in a gravelly, choked voice, <b>"I am your humble servant."</b></p>
<p>He waits for what seems like forever. When he finally looks up, the woman is staring at him in surprise. She has drawn a long blade in a defensive position, but her expression is puzzled. Her multicolored cloak is thrown open in a dazzling display, but everything else about her seems to be a normal human woman, not divine at all. Her voice, while piercing and vibrant in tone, has no ethereal echo like Chizzlall would have expected. <b>"Who are you?"</b> she asks, with a curious quirk to her smile. <b>"And are you talking to me?"</b></p>
<p>A little confused, and a little embarrassed, Chizzlall rises slowly. <b>"Uh,"</b> he says eloquently, <b>"I thought— I thought I was talking— to you. I'm— I'm Chizzlall Ironshaper. Praise Shelyn."</b></p>
<p>The woman sizes him up, obviously noting the holy symbol he wears, and sheathes her saber. <b>"Well met, sir. I am Lady Zsófia Dobós, Baroness of the Narlmarches, newly arrived to Tazlford with Lord Medvyed and his troops. Your welcome is encouraging! Do you live here in the town? And are all your fellow citizens as reverent of the Eternal Rose?"</b> Zsófia gives the man beside her an apologetic look, indicating that he may go on ahead of her if he wishes.</p>Chizzlall shifts as he sits, perched on the edge of a large rock outside the garrison of Tazlford.

<p>When The First Flame speaks telepathically, she turns to regard it with curiosity. <i>No need of sustenance, yes, but no desire either? Was the creature showing off its purity, demonstrating that, like her, it would not be tempted by earthly delights?

She realized she was staring without saying anything, like she often did with Reginleifr. It was funny how when someone doesn't speak, everyone else seems to become quiet around them as well.</p>
<p>From her shoulder, one of her three raven familiars quorks a flat note, and mutters <b>"Three. Three. Three."</b> Evelynda rolls her eyes. <b>"Hush, Elle, surely The First Flame meant no offense.

<p>Her eyes flicker back to the princess and she purses her lips. <i>Master Arinolus would not allow these others to manifest here if they were not His allies, surely.</i> Still, she resents the fact that she doesn't know anything about them. Jealousy, of a sort. She shakes her head and raises an unkempt eyebrow. <b>"A princess?"</b> she says carefully. <b>"And more?"</b></p>
<p>She scowls back at the table and decides that some decorum is required. She looks over the available dishes but does not touch any of them— possibly because nothing would fit in her enormous hands. She mutters some words under her breath: it sounds like an incantation but there is no corresponding magical effect that would indicate she has cast a spell. Then she says <b>"I will take water and break bread with you, to avoid giving offense, but I require your word that you will not take advantage of my trust. Is this acceptable to you, Princess Caravalle?"</b> She cannot keep an ironic note out of her voice as she addresses the faerie lady by her title. (It sounds like she might have personal reasons for disliking noblewomen, or perhaps she knows another princess well enough to have feelings about them.)</p>

She hated to stop in the middle of a session, but He was her patron and she knew it would be important. It was too easy for her to forget about time in this place, where the day and night changed at her whim rather than a measurable number of minutes, and often what had felt like only hours to her was weeks elsewhere. She spoke one of her coded passwords and the animate snowmen that she liked to think of as her "trainers" immediately ceased fighting, little puffs of powder descending to the earth in a miniature snowfall. Today they were dragons, and their serpentine faces looked almost disappointed. <b>"I must go,"</b> she explained tersely. <b>"The master calls."</b></p>
<p><b>"An' when will ye return, <i>bhean uasa</i>?"</b> The voice came from nearby, where Randgríðr and Radgríðr were hiding. Lyn still couldn't tell the two hags apart, since they were both copies from the same mold, but she suspected it was Randgríðr who spoke, since being slightly older she often took the lead over her twin sister. It always amazed her how harmless and lilting their brogue sounded to her ears, and she was thankful that unlike real winter hags, she could trust that they were not plotting evil at every moment.</p>
<p><b>"I do not know,"</b> she replied as she lifted herself up and began to fly back to Tårnheim, her long pleated gown whipping around her ankles as she took to the air. <b>"Expect me when you see me. Obey Reginleifr in my absence and defend Tårn with your last breath. <i>Prosit</i>."</b> The two women emerged from the scrub and ceremonially saluted her, bowing their heads and placing their fists over their hearts.</p>
<p>Evelynda floated into her solar at the top of the tower, where Reginleifr hovered within the domed structure in contemplation. She chuckled softly to herself at the pun like she always did and nodded to her celestial servant, as she often thought of him. <b>"Did you hear that?"</b> she asked as she stepped behind the screen and began to change into her travel clothes. </p>
<p><b>—OF COURSE, MISTRESS—</b> came the words directly in her mind, unsettling and intimate at the same time. As the idea of his voice resonated in her head, he held out each component of her outfit for her to take, and she pulled and buckled and smoothed out the thick fabric. It was silly, her not wanting to change in front of him, but fortunately Reg had never made a big deal about it. As the shadow of an angel, she half-suspected that he approved.</p>
<p><b>"Well."</b> It was hard to know what to say when the other person did not speak and could read your thoughts instantly. Lyn didn't know why she bothered talking to him, except that it felt somehow more personal. She was sure he knew, but it still made her feel uncomfortable. In silence she took all of her various spell components and magical devices and hid them within her deep pockets. Then she whistled: a short, sharp, piercing sound, and her familiars flew in and landed on her shoulders. <b>"<i>Vertu sæll</i>."</b> She bowed her head and allowed Arinolus's summons to bring her through the portal.</p>
<p>————————————————————</p>
<p>Alighting upon the platform, Evelynda narrows her eyes. Something was wrong— the ground was covered in lush, green plants, and there was a banquet table laid in the center of the Cynosure. Two others had already arrived, and she studied them warily as she stepped closer, her hair slightly tensed in readiness. Was Arinolus's domain under attack? Had she been called to defend her master against some kind of faerie threat?</p>
<p><b>"Who are you?"</b> she asks, in a voice louder and harsher perhaps than she intended, when she is close enough to speak (and both the others and the table is within her reach). A note of suspicion is obvious in her tone, and her eyes flicker back and forth between the colossal eagle and the well-dressed lady.</p>Evelynda paused in her training when she heard the call from Arinolus. "Slefjafretr," she muttered. She hated to stop in the middle of a session, but He was her patron and she knew it would be important. It was too easy for her to forget about time in this place, where the day and night changed at her whim rather than a measurable number of minutes, and often what had felt like only hours to her was weeks elsewhere. She spoke one of her coded passwords and the animate snowmen that she liked...Evelynda (alias of eriktd)2023-08-08T03:42:45ZRe: Forums: Play-by-Post: Sixguns over Thassilon GameplayMyrandya (alias of eriktd)https://paizo.com/campaigns/v5748p75ivmkm/gameplay&page=17#8352023-08-07T15:31:08Z2023-08-07T15:29:00Z<p>Myrandya blinks, her attention to the injured man faltering briefly as she curiously thinks about this new information.</p>

<p>The ankou othersoul losing its taste for death and then playing 'games' with its targets that seem oddly reminiscent of old tales of the Grim Reaper is certainly ripe for exploitation down the line. Do you have any particular angles in mind with how you would like to see that played out?</blockquote><p>Well, I was thinking that Mary's vigilante identity likes pursuing and catching prey, which is kind of like playing games, and Mary's social identity is primarily a doctor first, which means she has sworn an oath to do no harm. So their combined human influence on Mary's othersoul would be to kill only in certain circumstances, which I imagine would be very confusing to a grim reaper. There's probably a lot of Pratchett's early Death books mixed in there too. When your whole purpose is killing people, gaining a touch of humanity must be incredibly worrisome. But I can see that going a number of different directions: resentment (how dare this human make me question my role?), awe (this human is like a god, remaking me in her own image!), collaboration/abdication (you tell me what to do if you're so special), or even cruel obsession and retribution (I will punish you for doing this to me).
<p>Honestly, though, I'm perfectly comfortable with the idea that the Othersoul is your purview, and you can do whatever you want with it. Like others, I am excited just to see what sounds cool to you play out.</p>
<div class="messageboard-quotee">Seer of Shadows wrote:</div><blockquote>Poisons are not material components and, as such, are not covered under the material component clause. That said, I might be willing to work with you on a way to incorporate some those into your Curio since poisons are integral to your character and it might not always be practical to visit the Goblin Markets or go out of your way to find and harvest appropriate monsters.</blockquote><p>Cool! Maybe we could do something with, like, recipes for poisons, where Mary doesn't start with any unnatural (non-mundane) poisons in her possession, and no knowledge of how to make them, but once she finds one through the course of play she can subsequently synthesize doses of it with the tools in her Curio or something like that?
<div class="messageboard-quotee">Seer of Shadows wrote:</div><blockquote>I'm quite interested in learning more about Mary's trips to that cabin, as that could provide a few interesting angles depending on the finer details of what went on there.</blockquote><p>I purposely left it vague so that I could always fill in details later, like if she succeeds at a high Knowledge check she might suddenly recall having dissected a creature very similar to it. Likewise as a player I sort of shy away from thinking too carefully about what her vigilante identity might have done while it had possession of her body, because dread makes it much more frightening— to know that <i>something</i> awful happened (or a spree of somethings) conveys what that part of her is capable of without needing to get into the specifics. It also will make it easier for me to play Mary's slow realization that she is a monster, and that ultimately she is helpless to stop herself. :)Seer of Shadows wrote:I'm sure that trip to Edinburgh was informative!

<p>Evelynda's primary role in combat is as a debilitator/debuffer (the Anvil, as it were). Ideally she will act to hinder and lock down the enemy before they act, so that others can proceed to remove them from the combat. To that end, she is very focused on combat maneuvers, specifically grapple. Her hair has a reach of 40', and she can grab enemies of any size and pull them adjacent to her without gaining the grappled condition herself. She can ignore <i>freedom of movement</i> effects and even teleportation effects with an immediate action.</p>
<p>I think she might be the only one of us with spells instead of spheres, and as a magus//witch she has a lot of them. I doubt she'll have the actions to be able to cast very many in combat, but several of them are enduring spells that last forever— and a good many of these will target the whole party once we know each other! This includes: <i>ascendant enduring deathless, ascendant enduring haste, enduring ashen path, enduring communal resist energy (acid), enduring communal resist energy (cold), enduring communal resist energy (electricity), enduring communal resist energy (fire), enduring communal resist energy (sonic), enduring communal tongues,</i> and <i>enduring heroic invocation</i>.</p>
<p>(Part of this is party-preservation, because she has a lot of enduring effects on herself that could damage her allies if they happen to wind up adjacent to her— like <i>dazing enduring heightened call the void, enduring heightened rime frosty aura,</i> and <i>horrific doubles</i> — so these spells give protection against the damage and conditions that such effects bestow.)</p>
<p>Her signature spell is <i>chill touch</i>, at which she is almost embarrassingly specialized. Besides dealing a small amount of Strength damage and regular damage, she can use it to deliver additional negative conditions via Rime Spell or Dazing Spell. She can cast it as a quickened cantrip, through <i>spell-storing</i>, or as part of an attack of opportunity, which means it will almost always be included in her attacks. I doubt the effects will ever be especially impressive, but it makes me happy to see such a janky old spell getting used on a magus instead of <i>shocking grasp</i> or <i>snowball</i>. :)</p>
<p>She has three nosoi psychopomp familiars that don't really do much most of the time except sit on her huge shoulders and look cool. I mean, I guess they have <i>burning gaze</i> and can croak out Combat Advice, but that's pretty small peanuts at this level. They <i>can</i> each cast <i>Akashic communion</i> and <i>wish</i> once per day as spell-like abilities, which means they don't require any material components. So that's pretty awesome.</p>
<p>She too has a frozen demiplane that is sort of her home base, but I don't see her spending much time there once the game starts. It's mostly for downtime activities, like fooling around with the winter hag snowmen in her coven and making more extremely high-powered <i>simulacra</i>, again for no material component cost. It might make a good place for the party to retreat to at some point, if we are harried by the enemy and need backup from an army of snow monsters.</p>
<p>There's a few other fiddly little bits stuck into her build here and there, but that's the main bullet points.</p>With so many powers at each of our disposal, I think it's inevitable that there will be some overlap, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing since I imagine most of our enemies will be similarly versatile.

I had been thinking it was her othersoul manifesting early, but it could certainly be that she has internalized the faerie in question and it has become part of her personality. I had been thinking that mechanically she is unlikely to manifest her vigilante identity when she is not Dreamwalking, and that her social identity would probably become secondary or even “go to sleep” until the Dreamwalking is concluded. But I’m not sure exactly how Dreamwalking works, and maybe some other arrangement is better for gameplay. That said, it is interesting to consider that this other personality is literally a part of her that she doesn’t want to acknowledge as herself, using her newly acquired knowledge of the fey to avoid taking responsibility, so to speak. I don’t actually want to play a serial killer, at least not most of the time— I was thinking it would come out during combat and be sort of intensely personal in its horror. I wouldn’t want other players to worry that I might turn on them or anything like that.Seer of Shadows wrote:Would this be a true possession by the fey in question or a particularly noteworthy case of the personality bleed I mentioned in one of the lore tabs where aspects of the Dreamwalker and their Othersoul's personalities can potentially bleed into each other, somehow having formed a whole other personality in her case?

She doesn't exactly know it, but she also carries within her a faerie killer who might be known as "The Hunter." This being is anxious for her to give it control over their shared form so that it can do all the gory, frightening things that she won't do.</p>
<p>I built her as a vigilante, with The Hunter as her vigilante identity and Mary as her social identity. The Hidden Master archetype gives her different traditions and talents depending on which identity she is in, so I figure when she changes the other sort of "goes away" in her head, and either watches or doesn't watch what the body does in the meantime. It's kind of a neat mechanic, and I imagine it will be a source of deep dread for her as she realizes exactly what she is and what she does.</p>

<p><a href="https://paizo.com/people/Evelynda" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Evelynda Mirsdottr</a></p>
<p>What to say about her? Well, she's kind of a fantasy princess, exiled from her people and sent to live in a distant tower because of her witchy powers and her magic hair. But she's also a giant. So she does lots of deep, arcane magic stuff— like expanding her demiplane and specializing in Necromantic spells that don't summon undead— and she also does lots of scrappy, giant fighty stuff— like grappling enemies into submission with her walloping locks.</p>
<p>She's grown up in a special protected bubble, but she won't be safe for long since it's only a matter of time before Sporaxus tracks her down. All of her relatives have been Unmade, and it seems like Arinolus is her only hope for a future. She will have to learn to work with others and brave the big bright beautiful world beyond her frozen island if she's going to have a life where she gets to keep futzing around with magical snowmen and singing about the cold.</p>
<p>There's a fair few cheesy things in her build, but I've tried to keep everything fair within the parameters. For example, she has purchased and spent the materials necessary to make two winter hag <i>simulacra</i>, which she can join in a coven. Together the three of them can make more <i>simulacra</i> as a spell-like ability, including things like solars with 1/day wishes or even Baba Yaga or Nocticula. I figure that this lets her do almost anything in her little demiplane of make-believe, but none of it will carry out into "the real world" unless she can actually pay for it with real money (the starting gold amount for this game). It's like she's living in a dollhouse made of snow.</p>
<p>The Spell Supremacy epic feat really appealed to me, so I sort of built around it. But instead of using something boring and done like <i>shocking grasp</i> or <i>battering blast</i>, I decided to go with <i>chill touch</i>. If Evelynda is selected, I'm looking forward to seeing how far we can push that sad and neglected little first level spell. Anyway, that sort of led to most of the choices I made with this character: cold, dark, and equal parts positive and negative energy.</p>I'm going away for a few days and probably won't be checking the boards (or at least I really shouldn't!), so I thought I'd post what I have so far for general edification and error-checking.

Here's a few scroll suggestions:</p>
<p><i><a href="https://aonprd.com/SpellDisplay.aspx?ItemName=Comprehend%20Languages" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">comprehend languages</a></i> (for eldritch writings not known to man)
<br />
<i><a href="https://aonprd.com/SpellDisplay.aspx?ItemName=Heightened%20Awareness" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">heightened awareness</a></i> (excellent for scouting and knowledge checks, plus the amazing initiative bonus)
<br />
<i><a href="https://aonprd.com/SpellDisplay.aspx?ItemName=Remove%20Fear" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">remove fear</a></i> (good for preemptive fear protection)
<br />
<i><a href="https://aonprd.com/SpellDisplay.aspx?ItemName=Tears%20to%20Wine" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">tears to wine</a></i> (another great scouting spell, +2 to all Int and Wis skills, stacks with <i>heightened awareness</i>)</p>
<p>A lot of good bard spells are swift/immediate action spells, or depend on caster level, which means they aren't great for scrolls. But spells like <i>moment of greatness</i> are almost better on scrolls, so if you're thinking of switching out for some, I recommend:</p>
<p><i><a href="https://aonprd.com/SpellDisplay.aspx?ItemName=Alarm" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">alarm</a></i> (good for camping in dangerous places)
<br />
<i><a href="https://aonprd.com/SpellDisplay.aspx?ItemName=Dazzling%20Blade" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">dazzling blade</a></i> (nice swift action spell, and its special feature isn't in the summary description— it blinds an adjacent opponent for 1 round, and you can cast it on someone else for them to activate!)
<br />
<i><a href="https://aonprd.com/SpellDisplay.aspx?ItemName=Liberating%20Command" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">liberating command</a></i> (being grappled <i>sucks</i>)
<br />
<i><a href="https://aonprd.com/SpellDisplay.aspx?ItemName=Saving%20Finale" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">saving finale</a></i> (this spell saves lives)
<br />

<p>Ylvahild watches Opal perform the arcane ceremony, her curiousity piqued by the opportunity to see a somewhat obscure spell put into action. She had vaguely heard of it, of course, but she had never had occasion to learn or cast it. She frowns with unbridled enthusiasm as Rani conveys the results. As the group begins to discuss what they have learned, she removes her shield from her arm and turns it so she can peer inside. She begins polishing the surface with her braid and chanting a phrase softly in a another language.</p>
<p>[Spoiler omitted]</p>
<p>After about a minute of performing this ritual, there is a familiar rush of power through the room that suggests someone has cast a spell.</p>

<p>Ylvahild exhales slowly. She had certainly gotten herself embroiled in something big beyond belief, now taking her marching orders from one of the most powerful and problematic figures in the whole world. Yet it did not seem like she had a choice. While she looked at it from every angle and calculated in her massive intellect the best possible response, the little woman with the tattoos spoke to try and bring everyone together. <i>Or she seeks to seize this opportunity to take advantage of us, to gain a psychic foothold in each of our ethereal essences,</i> the skeptical part of her mind cautioned. She would have to make sure she took the necessary magical precautions to be able to act as if she trusted this Rani person in the future.</p>
<p><b>"I am agreement þhat to be succeding ve vill need to puul our resources and come to an understandingness of vhat ve each can duu,"</b> she says after a few seconds of thought. <b>"I have also been descendant made from þhese giants of ohld, þhough my immediate ancestors live far to þhe north from here.

<p>She purses her lips into an enormous thinking frown. <b>"I tuu am being skilled in þhe reading of ohmens and auguries, and vith a bit of time and a safe place from vhich to be gazing into the Great Beyond, I may be able to perform a <i>divination</i>.

<p>Ylvahild turns from gazing out the window, clearly startled by Opal's addressing her. She quickly composes her features into what she seems to think a benevolent, calm smile, but her large frame is noticeably tense and her expression is haughty and condescending <span class=messageboard-ooc>(she's got bad "resting witch face," as it is sometimes known)</span>. Her eyes flicker over the others, wary, but she responds simply in Common, her heavy accent decorated with notes of Giant. <b>"I?

<p>Ylvahild arrives at the embassy feeling extremely wary and annoyed. </p>
<p>When she received word from Svenr— one of her tiny domain's half-giant subjects who gathers and transports their trade goods to the prime material plane— that the Red Wizards of Thaythilor desired a word with her, she had experienced a sinking feeling that her idyllic existence in Tårnheim was unlikely to remain free and unmolested for much longer. It wasn't <i>exactly</i> a threat, according to Svenr, but it had the ring of "calling in favors" to it, and the unspoken warning that if she didn't come when they summoned her, they would be at the least reluctant to deal with her in the future. That could make her existence very difficult.</p>
<p>But of course, Ylvahild also didn't want to appear to be the Red Wizards' lackey. She was Tårnheim's sovereign, a powerful witch in her own right, and a dangerous adversary when challenged. So, she had to make it look as if going to the meeting at the embassy was her own choice, or at least fit in with her plans. She <i>did</i> hope very much to increase the size of her domain at some point in the near future, and to do that she would need another <i>scroll of permanency</i> or the services of a friendly wizard in her own weight class. Either would be expensive, and it would be a long time before the sale of her potions and raw materials earned her that much gold. But perhaps she could leverage her involvement in whatever Thaythilor wanted of her into payment for services rendered? That had possibilities.</p>
<p>So, she set about making herself as presentable as possible, arrayed in her finery as a noble giant warrior as much as queen of an otherworldly realm. As is normal for her when traveling, she wears a fur-lined gown made of fine leather, cloth, and silver accents. She carries her legendary mirrored shield Skjǫldrspegill and is accompanied by her faithful companion Sundøyr, who for this august occasion has altered his size to be small enough to ride on her oversized back like a snail shell. She also wears her crowned helm and reflective crystal necklace. It would not do to appear stingy with her enchanted items in front of all the elite magic-users of Thaythilor, or so she imagines herself to be for this audience.</p>
<p>The journey was not difficult, and yet when she arrives she is still in a foul mood. She has a brief argument with the seneschals— or administrative staff, or whatever they are called— about her credentials, and she is forced to use her witch magic on them to make them treat her with deference and respect, before she resorts to simply browbeating them into cooperating. Once proof of her invitation is sorted, she is directed to the large but secluded chamber in the embassy where the meeting is to take place. When she enters, she throws the doors open with a bit too much strength, enough that they bounce against the walls and slam shut behind her as she strides in. Her long, white hair has puffed out like an octopus's limbs in water and is seemingly trembling with malice. Frowning at the small size of the chairs, she elects instead to stand, moving to a window so she has something else to look at until the session begins.</p>

I really find they make the Pathfinder rules so much better. Basically, they remove some of the common feats that all martials have to take, and combine several others to make it possible to take other feats sooner or feats that otherwise you can never fit into your build. The first write-up is found <a href="https://michaeliantorno.com/feat-taxes-in-pathfinder/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">here</a> and it is pretty simple to use. It also means that most enemies we face also have these feats, which standardizes things and makes combat slightly more challenging, or at least balanced. The biggest change is that everyone basically gets Combat Expertise and Weapon Finesse, and can use Deadly Aim and Power Attack once they reach +1 BAB. Weapon Focus and other feats that require a weapon choice are with fighter weapon groups instead. And maneuvers are easier because there are only two improved maneuver feats, Deft Maneuvers (disarm, dirty trick, trip, reposition, and feint) and Powerful Maneuvers (bull rush, overrun, sunder, and something else I'm forgetting). Dodge includes Mobility for free, and Unarmed Combatant is both Improved Unarmed Strike and Improved Grapple.</p>Can we implement the Elephant in the Room No Feat Tax rules?

<p>She senses her familiar is drawn more to the libations than the comestibles, and she subtly frees the wasp from her pouch so that she can explore the smells unhindered. <b>"Careful, mother,"</b> she says quietly, <b>"do not go far."</b> She sizes up the shopkeepers and a couple of big spenders to try to decide if it is worth her time to lavish attention upon them in the hopes of courting their custom, but decides her prospects are slim while the sun is still high in the sky. <b>"Let's look elsewhere,"</b> she whispers to her familiar, gathering her back up into her pouch.</p>
<p>She admires the many would-be crusaders out wearing their fine arms and armor. <i>Knights certainly like to show off their armor, and they are very proud of their swords— long or short.</i> She smiles to herself and cheers some of the warriors as they pass. <i>Was that a lingering look?</i> she wonders, as one strapping soldier rides by on a horse. Just in case, she blows him a kiss and follows the procession to Clydwell Plaza, where she sees that the opening ceremonies are about to begin.</p>Shella doesn't have to attend the festival, but she quite enjoys dressing up and seeing all the people of Kenabres in a daytime context.

<p>Hanso leans pretty hard into nonlethal combat, and suffers pretty yucky penalties if he allows helpless living creatures to be killed (it's okay if they die in combat, just not when they're held or unconscious).

Instead of taking damage from the chief's attack, she rolls 10' to the east. Since the gecko gets an attack of opportunity but cannot reach her to attack, maybe we should treat the attack you rolled as its opportunity attack?

Something I did in a previous solo campaign that I thought worked really well was I simply multiplied the cost of everything new or crafted by 5, but kept the resale value of items the same. That way the character got all the loot and I didn't have to do much adjusting. It does make found magic items like scrolls and wands more valuable, since selling them makes less of a profit.

Amusingly, there is an NPC described in Longacre who is specifically a seller of sham potions. Let's say that Sameen simply takes his place, so your concept doesn't overlap with him? Here's the text from his description:</p>
<div class="messageboard-quotee">Quote:</div><blockquote>14. Odmer’s Tonics: The painting of a rainbow-hued imp exploding from a bottle makes the gaudy wheeled storefront of Elish Odmer (NE male human alchemistAPG 3), normally parked in one of Longacre’s town squares, look like the cart of a common snake oil salesman. And that’s exactly what it is. Elish Odmer claims to have ties directly to the Nine Wonders Conglomerate, a Thuvian corporation dedicated to bringing the secrets of their mystical medicines and revolutionary tinctures to the world at large. Few believe the Nine Wonders even exist, and everyone in Longacre knows the story of how Odmer was banned from town for a year after brewing a batch of bad moonshine in Natisha Howell’s bathtub. Regardless of the shyster’s reputation, he’s a charming flatterer who occasionally has useful items on hand. Most of Odmer’s brightly colored bottles are junk, but anyone who succeeds at a DC 12 Craft (alchemy) or Knowledge (arcana) check can find any alchemical item with a cost of less than 75 gp in stock</blockquote><p>Feel free to adapt any of this to your own background, or discard it as you like. You can have your own cart that isn't as obviously a fake if you like. Or if you prefer, you can have a working relationship with Odmer, some kind of shared swindle or an apprenticeship or something like that.Character looks great!

<div class="messageboard-quotee">Dungeon Madam wrote:</div><blockquote>Question for all PCs planning on melee PCs: Considering that the first installment is a dungeon delve, and we have two melee PCs pre-accepted, how will you engage with a combat where there's no room for your PC to take part in the melee?</blockquote><p>That's a very good question, worthy of ponderous thought. Here's what I've come up with (I'll copy it to my profile too so you can find my answers later if you want).
<p>1. Demoralizing. Gardolf is a pretty intimidating fellow. Maybe not as much as the specialists in the pool, but I'd say he has a decent chance of making low-level humanoids (and cursed/mischievous halflings!) tremble in fear when he pulls himself up to his full height and speaks in his booming voice. </p>
<p>2. Reach. I intend Gardolf to eventually fight with reach from behind the front lines, but maybe I should make sure he has a few <i>scrolls of long arm</i> for the first few levels. (Probably too greedy to hope for him to be able to cast <i>shillelagh</i> and wail on enemies too early on.)</p>
<p>3. Spells. Once Gardolf gets cantrips at level 4, he can always cast <i>guidance</i> on the people between him and the enemy, if he is out of spell slots and scrolls. And much later on, he will be able to cast his pseudo-wizardly area spells with Selective Spell so that they ignore his friends and harm their foes.</p>
<p>4. Ranged weapons. I notice that Alaïs is investing points in Craft (alchemy), so I am hopeful that we might have access to things like acid flasks and tanglefoot bags for Gardolf to throw. He's not especially ranged-focused, but he has a full BAB and that's pretty great for splash weapons— close enough is good enough for horseshoes and hand grenades!</p>
<p>5. Skills. If all else fails, Gardolf can still make Knowledge and Lore checks, though granted he could do that anyway. If he's really stuck, I could also have him just try to move through his allies' and the enemies' spaces. Acrobatics is a class skill for him, but he also might be a heavy enough heavy that he can just absorb the attacks of opportunity. Since we all have Dirty Fighting, having a flanker in among the enemy is probably worth the risk.</p>Dungeon Madam wrote:@eriktd/Gardolf: I really appreciate you keeping up with these lists, by the way, and especially you trying to organize between "finished" and "unfinished" applications.

Also, his ability scores seem awfully high, even with a 25-point build. Does he have the Dual Talent human ability? With that trait he's still at 29 ability points as I count it. His skill ranks are awfully high too: 29 adventure skill ranks and only 5 background skill ranks. Without Skilled he should have 19 adventure skill ranks and 10 background skills.

Have I got a character for <i>you!</i> :)</p>
<p>Magoomba is a half-orc with the Racial Heritage feat, making her more or less a half-goblin. She's medium-sized and very wild, having been raised in captivity by abusive goblins in service to Lamashtu and forced to fight beasts and other prisoners for their amusement.

<p>Nick couldn't believe his luck! Credit where credit was due, it was probably because of his patron goddess, and he murmured a quick prayer of thanks to her as he prepared to leave her chapel for the forseeable future. He was finally going to be a Crusader! <b><i>Farod would be so proud,</i></b> he thought, and then self-consciously remembered his father, still sitting in prison for petty crimes against the people of Kenabres. He would <i>not</i> be proud of him, he knew. He shook off that feeling of anxiety and doubt, putting off that uncomfortable meeting until someday in the future.</p>
<p><i>The present</i></p>
<p>Had it really only been a month? Nick chuckled to himself, remembering. How quickly their little squad had come together! Zedna, the scrappy singer who could punch like a brick; Lotho, the simple and practical paladin of Erastil; the mysteriously tranquil Krayn, who wielded strange arcane powers of fire and the sun; and himself, a humble halfling with a special heirloom weapon trying not to get killed. He looked up at the stars and smiled. <b><i>This will make a great story,</i></b> he thought.</p>
<p>Jarred out of his reverie, he brushes himself off and quickly follows Zedna with the others. It was easier for him to be quiet, for he was half the size of everyone else, and he peered over the rise to examine the hobgoblin sentry. <b><i>"Think we can take him without raising the alarm?"</i></b> he whispered to the group. <b><i>"We might catch the other guards inside unawares, which will make the fight a little easier, but I don't think we'll be able to keep Jozra from knowing we're here once we start the melee."</i></b></p>A month ago...

Anxious is appropriate too, and since Anxious gives a Diplomacy penalty that would complement Umbral Unmasking, I was thinking maybe combining the two would make them less weak?</p>

<p>Pharasma keeps Groetus at bay by feeding Him atheists, so Zeke reasons that the atheists will be in the afterlife too. So since others who don't worship Groetus can be there, he hopes that means his friends and family can be there too. And since a crazy god is driven by whims and whimsy, so Zeke believes that if he is a faithful servant, his god will grant him boons in the afterlife just as he does in this life. Protecting his friends and family, for example, or at least letting him do so without punishing him for it. That's basically it.</p>GM Mustache wrote:I certainly concede the point that Zeke is probably the furthest on the good spectrum for the whole group.

It's powerful. I love playing necromancers. But I feel like you have to get buy-in from the rest of the players to do it. If this were an evil game like <i>Way of the Wicked</i>, no question!</p>
<p>But this is an established game with characters that have been around for a long time, and I feel like this is a pretty big thing to just spring on us without asking. It feels like I have to have a meta-argument with the group both in character and out of character about whether or not this is evil and something that Chaotic Good Zeke is even allowed to be uncomfortable with.</p>
<p>Yes, we all are kinda gray characters, but none of us are actually evil and it seems like we've shied away from downright evil acts in the past. I get wanting to massage the game so that we can get away with both being paladins and scoundrels at the same time. But <i>animate dead</i>, like <i>summon monster</i>, is contentious. It's a lot harder to make it work in a mixed party. And unlike <i>summon monster</i>, <i>animate dead</i> lasts for a really, really long time.</p>
<p>I've seen games break up because of this. You try to compromise between the two factions, keeping the undead outside or burying them, casting disguise spells to make them look human, managing all of your minions so that your control cycles and you can quickly kill the ones that overflow the bucket. You start splitting the party a lot. But it's clear that something is wrong, and that it has become two games, one with undead and one without them. And the second group starts losing interest, you know? It's hard to see yourself as Big Damn Heroes when one of you is a Reaver.</p>Look, I get it, necromancy is cool from a system perspective.

I thought this character might fit in well for a few reasons, so I advanced her to 5th level. The details are in her profile, but here's a summary:</p>
<p>Duskashae is a shadow creature refugee from the lands of Nidal, west of Moldani. She has been on the run for most of her adult life, having hidden in Braganza for a time and then getting conscripted into the army after she was caught stealing from the temple of Abadar. Stationed at Fort Ramsgate, she fled into Nirmathi territory during the attack, and from there made her way to Phaendar with the hope of joining the Chernasardo rangers. To prove herself, she was on a reconnaissance mission in the Fangwood forest when the town was attacked, and she has been trying to rejoin the survivors ever since.</p>
<p>I've built her as a Gloomblade fighter with Rogue variant multiclass levels. She is an extremely versatile reach fighter, striking with a magical shadow bardiche, and she has access to several utility spells through Item Mastery feats. She can also treat deadly wounds with extraordinary skill, though her enthusiasm for examining injuries is slightly disturbing. She is an excellent scout, very athletic, and she excels at guerrilla tactics.</p>Greetings! I thought this character might fit in well for a few reasons, so I advanced her to 5th level.

She was widowed earlier this year, and though her husband's death was officially labeled an accident, she has often hinted to Carl that she thinks it was agents of House Thrune that killed him. She adores gossip, and loves sharing what she's heard with Carl and his other customers while she is trying on jewelry. In fact, it was she who told The Silver Shadow that Rexus would be at the demonstration, after she had brought the topic up in his shop.</p>
<p><b>"Greetings, Lady Catherine!"</b> he enthuses. He always tries to make her feel like his favorite customer, and in many ways she is. <b>"Something new for the opera, perhaps?"</b> he suggests. They discuss how so many of the city's entertainers have disappeared and the Thrune regime has taken over the Opera House, with Carl pretending he didn't already know that. Lady Catherine loved being perceived as one who knew things, and feigned ignorance would usually make her talk more than direct questions. Also, wine.</p>
<p>Later, he casually brings up the demonstration, and asks if she was there. She gives him a suspicious look, but admits that she was too scared. <b>"It sounds as if many people in the city have begun to organize,"</b> he suggests. <b>"I wonder if what happened at the assembly is why? Do you know anyone who went?"</b> He hopes to make Lady Catherine think of Rexus and how she knew he would be there. Sure enough, she explains that she overheard him speaking to a halfling (probably Laria) about looking for "recruits to their cause." He asks her where this was, and she confirms it was in the Long Roads coffeehouse.</p>
<p>He tactfully changes the subject, but quietly thinks that his method of suggesting that she look further into the rebellion and possibly join up with them is subtle enough not to give away his secret identity. He makes a mental note to suggest that Laria and Rexus keep an eye out for her visit, for she would make a fine ally to their cause. Also, he has given himself a good reason to "happen to be" at the coffeehouse if she should see him there.</p>Carl is pleasantly surprised when one of his clients stops by his establishment, the wealthy Lady Catherine du Mas.

I decided to go with a roguelike Gloomblade Fighter, complete with Rogue VMC. I've built the character, now I just need to work on the background. Big picture, she's a wayang refugee from Nidal who got caught in the Ramsgate Massacre and has been hiding in the wilderness ever since. Now that she is running out of food, she has decided to risk approaching human civilization, specifically the settlement of Phaendar, hoping that their need for guerilla fighters against the Ironfang invasion will overcome the automatic fear and hatred to which she has grown accustomed in human lands.</p>
<p>She is designed to be incredibly flexible, as shadow creatures tend to be, so I'm planning on Barroom Brawler at level 4, to be able to use an Item Mastery feat once a day at level 5. To enable the healing feats in case of emergencies, I'm planning on taking Heal ranks and Signature Skill (Heal) at level 5. She's also got good Acrobatics, Perception, Stealth, Use Magic Device, and of course Disable Device. To start with, she'll probably fight with a bardiche, but that will likely transform into a two-bladed sword once she gets going.</p>Hi, eriktd here!

I imagine Carl acting as either a Recruiter or the Strategist, neither of which depends on his stats.Carl Conrad Copperplate (alias of eriktd)2018-09-18T17:23:19ZRe: Forums: Play-by-Post: Hell's Masked RebelsCarl Conrad Copperplate (alias of eriktd)https://paizo.com/campaigns/HellsMaskedRebels/gameplay&page=14#6642018-09-17T18:25:33Z2018-09-17T18:25:33Z<p>Carl smiles disarmingly. <b>"It seems to me that for our rebellion to succeed, we must get the word out so that others can help us.

I've put this character together for your consideration; everything is in the alias's profile but briefly speaking he is a young elven nobleman well-versed in lore and history and desperate for adventure, who has come to Hommlet looking for evidence of Prince Thrommel of Furyondy and his famous magic sword. He's mostly a wizard, though like all good elves he has some martial prowess as well (in this case a level of magus), and he is eventually aimed at the Eldritch Knight prestige class. I hope it meets with your approval, but let me know if there's anything you'd like to alter or refine. :)</p>Hi DM, this is eriktd.

Titles usually pass through the blood, so they go to children and if there aren't any children they go back to siblings and their children, and then back again to their parents' siblings, and so on. So if Queen Domina didn't have any other heirs, the title would usually go to the previous king's heirs, in this case Anguela. If Anguela's family's existence were publicly known, she would have a legitimate claim on the throne. </p>
<p>The dowager queen (dowager means she has the title from her dead husband) usually has no rights after the king dies, because as far as the Peers are concerned she is just somebody the king married, presumably to produce heirs. If they have children she is usually styled as the queen mother. While he's alive she's usually called the queen consort. These all apply to queen's husbands too, so it isn't necessarily sexist.</p>
<p>Obviously, that's not the story we're telling here. :) A suggestion I read elsewhere on these boards was that the late king named Ileosa as his heir before he died. That's a little controversial, because while a king can do that, the Peers of the realm can dispute it and may not honor his wishes if there's another clear heir. It makes a regicide charge much more serious and can quickly lead to civil war. But in a case like this where there aren't any other obvious heirs, the nobles might go along with it.</p>I've done some digging into this, and it looks like the author just assumed that she would take over the kingdom, even though that's not how succession usually works.

She felt restless and irritable, as she always did when it was time to go home, annoyed that another day had passed without any recognizable difference in her situation. Her stomach growled loudly as it often did when she was walking, and as often was the case when she she was off-duty, she felt she could put off eating no longer. </p>
<p>She ducked her head as she entered a public house known by the sign of the bearded lady that she had visited a time or two before, familiar enough with the entrance that she did not brush against the long hairy decoration that hung just inside. She went to a table and waited to be served, but soon grew impatient and went to the bar for a drink and some bread and cheese. The bread was too soft, she thought, and so was the cheese.</p>
<p>She stared out a window at the deepening shadows outside, picking at her meal. They offered her what they said was a hearty stew, but she thought it tasted more lung-y. Still, she couldn't ever really concentrate on her food. Eating was always utilitarian for Anguela. She had to eat for sustenance, but she never enjoyed it. She looked at the other people in the establishment, and briefly felt envious of them. All the experiences they got to have, being simple, common, ordinary people. She frowned. She was different, and always had been, and always would be.</p>
<p>When she had finally finished, she left money on the table and made her way out the back way, stopping at the privy. She enjoyed making the most of whatever establishment she favored for meals. <i>Like using the whole animal from a hunt,</i> she thought. She liked that the Bearded Lady had a separate tent for women, especially as it seemed they had gone to some effort to scent it. Anguela's sense of smell was very acute, and she appreciated little details like that.</p>
<p>She didn't want to go "home," but she knew she should. Her "parents" were always scolding her— well, advising her, they would say— against time spent elsewhere. She didn't want to be recognized, they would say. She wanted to avoid trouble, they would say. Lay low, they would say. But it was so boring and frustrating cooped up in that little room at the top of the stairs! She wanted to experience the city, her city, see the sights and get to know it right down to its roots. She wanted to go to taverns and hear performers sing, or see plays put on at the many theaters. Or even just go for a walk. What could go wrong?</p>
<p>Rebelliously, she turned right, thinking <i>I'll take the long way home tonight.</i> Cut through the temple gate, maybe make her way down to the docks, and then come back down High Street. She liked walking. You'd think she would be tired, since most of her day as a guard consisted of patrolling, but there was something special about doing it on her time. She felt like she was on display, like she was part of a procession. Sometimes in the seedier parts of town people would call out to her or look like they might stop her, which was certainly risky. But so far no one had tangled with her. <i>Perhaps that is why I keep going,</i> she thought with a bit too much self-awareness. She bit the inside of her lip and snorted. <i>Augh, I can't take much more of this,</i> she thought with disgust as she turned back left again and continued towards Curiosities Noctis. <i>Something must happen soon or I will go mad.</i></p>
<p>She stomped up the wooden stairs, purposefully avoiding Gareth and Serena, who were probably squeezed in one of their three tiny rooms having a meal together, which was probably preceded by an offering to Abadar, and which probably had an extra serving saved for her if she wanted it. She took a deep breath and considered knocking on their door at the landing, but she decided she simply could not handle their company tonight and continued to her floor.</p>
<p>Inside, she flopped on the large comfortable divan and threw her arms out limply on either side. She glared at the crack in the ceiling and made grumbling sounds in the back of her throat. After what felt like about an hour of this she picked herself up and made her way past her dressing room to her bedchamber, which looked out the front of the building and had a prettyish sort of view of the park across the street and the last rays of the sunset in the distance. She changed into her night-gown and lit a candle, thinking that she would try to read some of the political screeds she had collected from rebels near the castle, which she thought she could often glean hints of gossip about what was really going on with the king and his court. However, after staring at them for a while she decided she was too tired to puzzle them out, and she blew out the light.</p>
<p>Even so, she lay in bed for several hours before she finally fell asleep. She thought she heard an animal cross the roof above her at one point, maybe a cat, but she amused herself by picturing a psuedodragon chasing an imp, and that made her smile as she drifted off.</p>Anguela turned in her pike at the guardroom and sauntered down the street in the vague direction of "home," right as the sun began to set in the distance.

<p>Anguela lives on the third storey of a magic shop in the Midland district, "Curiosities Noctis," located just across the street from Drake's Square, the park that juts out of the northwest border into The Heights. It is a simple wooden structure with white stucco and heavy angled boards for support. The ground floor is gaudily decorated with wards and arcane symbols all around the outside, and a fenced garden with a locked greenhouse in the back. There is an outdoor stair on the side of the building that leads to the second floor, where Gareth Noctis lives with his wife Serena, and continues to the third floor, where Anguela lives. Anguela's rooms are very messy, typically strewn with laundry and dirty dishes next to half-finished books. The Noctises also employ two young assistants in the store, who possibly come from the slums originally if you need more hooks.</p>Hi everyone! Excited about playing this adventure path with you all.

That description seems like it could apply; she believes the gods favor her because of her grandfather’s vision.

I find that idea much more enjoyable than me coming up with what I think I want to happen!

I don’t think she thinks that becoming Queen will change how she treats those she thinks of as her subjects. Respectful disagreements between Korvosans who think differently about how the city should be run are perfectly fine. I imagine everyone will have the best interests of their city at heart. If members of her party actively work against her and oppose her claim, they could have a problem of course. But who knows what the gods intend?
<div class="messageboard-quotee">leinathan wrote:</div><blockquote>How open is she about her birthright?</blockquote><p>Well, not at all at the start, since the current regime would probably have her killed as soon as they found out, but as she learns to trust her companions, she will quickly open up to them. To succeed in her goal she needs allies, and a willing and grateful populace. She will need all the friends she can get!

(DM Barzillai Thrune's Hell's Rebels) RecruitmentLucky Nick (alias of eriktd)https://paizo.com/campaigns/SicSemperTyrannisThrunesHellsRebelsRevived/recruiting#152017-11-28T07:07:23Z2017-11-28T07:07:23Z<p><b>Name:</b> Seannon Starfall, or just "Shawn" to his friends</p>
<p><b>Background:</b> As a child (then called Seannon Talltallow), Seannon was born into service on a wealthy Chelish aristocrat's plantation, one of the many halflings kept by the rural nobility as slaves. With the help of a visiting priest of Desna that secretly belonged to the Bellflower network, he was lucky enough to escape to Kintargo, where he eventually found work at a dwarven tanner's shop. His employer has never seen the brand of ownership on his chest, but Seannon suspects that the old leatherworker would look the other way if he ever did. Still, Seannon fears that his presence will bring the authorities down upon them, and for his employer's sake the last twenty years he has tried to avoid drawing attention to himself.</p>
<p>The halfling is impulsive and hates injustice, however, and more and more often he finds himself bristling at the draconian rules the civic authorities have imposed. Not that Seannon is outspoken about his faith, but he has devoutly followed the Lady of Dreams ever since her spokesperson rescued him, and the recent outlawing of Desna's worship particularly rankled him. He began attending secret revolutionary meetings with other halflings and demihumans in the neighborhood, all of them masked so as not to be recognized if caught. Together they have been practicing fighting, as it seems likely it will soon come to that. Another halfling who joined their band claimed to represent a revolutionary group called the Silver Ravens, which intrigued Seannon. He refrained from asking about it, but listened carefully whenever they were mentioned.</p>
<p>As of last week it appears this halfling representative has gone missing. Feeling a sense of forboding, Seannon began asking around, even looking up a few old contacts from the Bellflower network. If he was really concerned and wanted to help his friend, they told him, he should go to the Aria Park protest and look for a human wearing one black leather glove on his right hand. This man would help him find the Silver Ravens. Seannon was not sure what to do, and privately decided to leave it alone— but somehow on the day of the protest he found himself donning his mask and walking to the park anyway. (<b>Meeting a Contact</b>)</p>
<p><b>Personality:</b> Seannon tries to be low-key and not make noise, but it is his nature to rebel. His friends and neighbors look to him for support and listen to what he says. In private, he does not mince words about his dislike of Thrune's takeover and his approval of the actions of the Glorious Reclamation. When wearing his mask he feels larger than life, and becomes almost like a folk hero with his witty banter and ability to lead others.</p>
<p><b>Roles:</b> Striker (melee and ranged fighter), Face (Bluff, Diplomacy)</p>
<p>Seannon cursed himself and his impetuousness. <i>This is the park,</i> he thought. <b>"What am I doing here?"</b> he muttered aloud. Involuntarily, the thought sprung into his head, the words from the meeting: <i>To Rebellion! To Liberation! To the future!</i></p>
