I'm cool with Diffa choosing our name.

He's kinda the leader already!

=)

Columns 1, 3, 2, 4, 5: 5d100 ⇒ (65, 35, 21, 83, 67) = 271

Throwing out an alternative!

I mean.

Because Brimly is standing in front of you in the Marching Order, and thus in the line of fire, you are free to cast spells.

;)

Sanctified: Chaotic Neutral

GM,
I thought Green was a PC!

Whoopsie daisy.

Crafting to "careful pour"?

=)

Maybe Alvar knows Shantanna Lyrs who has on a couple occasions run him out for (harmlessly) trespassing?

Maybe Alvar and Dee'Ly'Lah once stowed away on the same caravan before hopping off at different destinations?

Maybe Alvar meets Diffa and his Sothis > Kalit > Wati journey right now?

Ok, I couldn't see Gameplay earlier, but now I can - with our old posts showing up like driftwood.

I think Paizo fixed your issue quick!

(Am I the only one who can see it!?)

That explains his RP!

=)

Any Ancestry can, instead of taking their standard Ancestry boosts (including -2 for halfling), opt into two any-boosts with no flaws.

There is still a mechanical reason +/+/f/- Ancestries exist, but it's niche.

=)

◆◆) Sustain Pernicious Poultergeist (Sustained 10-burst, variable effects, one target & multi-target)

That should say "Cast" not "Sustain" =)

Alvarius Bufo is ready, GM.

GM,
What season is it?

Yes.

Ha ha I posted in that thread.

Thanks for looking into it.

=)

Wait.

Jistkan does not have the Uncommon tag. But Jistka is Rare?

Which is it? And are they the same?

Help! What now?

Sorry, thought you wanted to erase and wait.

I'll put the saving throw back up, and do the rest tomorrow.

Ok,
I erased my post. But am out of time tonight, it'll likely be 12 hours before I can post again.

=)

While we are here, you are first GM to roll a Reflex save for Flash of Grandeur. Since the only variable of a save is "how long", people typically have it fully affect the attacker for 1 round. Simplifies it too.

Accept your ruling either way.

GM,
I am unclear if Tao's strike hit or missed, and if Blue is up or down.

It looks like you wrote that it missed but also triggered Clara's Opportune Backstab ("is hit by a melee attack from one of your allies").

Bladed Scarf may be a finesse weapon, but Tao uses Strength for her attack rolls!

Wrong Turn at Albuquerque?

Looks like we are all with the same-ish bonuses with the skills we are trained in.

=)

Jistkan is Uncommon, and I believe choosable by Automatons at the very least: Source.

Amarynthine is supposed to speak it. I did not update the "Languages" portion of his sheet since asking in that thread (didn't want to assume, then forgot), but he is a Jistka Automaton by concept.

=)

Um.

I will refrain from comment about what this reveals about your coworkers.

;)

Big fan of your "RK notes" posted at the bottom of the Tracker thank you!

Bringing my PFS Alchemist (Chirurgeon) / Barbarian to the game. Free Archetype will allow me to grab some "extra" Alchemist feats.

Took a bunch of non-magical INT skills, can serve as a healer / bomber until it's time to use mutagens and rage to finish out battles in close combat.

Grayce PCs
Chirurgeon Alchemist / Barbarian
Laughing Shadow Magus / Martial Artist
Staff Nexus Wizard / Wandering Chef

Only Intelligent characters so far!

=)

I'm going to make room for Truesight as it might help with the Astra.

Unless, Kiba, True Target effectively takes care of it?

(Might do it anyway, just to overlay...)

Will re-Prepare tonight!

Yes. It was a Bequeathal. Let me access my records.

Soon, that adventure will be infinite repeatable!

Jolinaxus
"(#1-13): "Devil at the Crossroads" (4xp, 22.40gp, 4 EA, 2 VS) @ GM, 2/27/20"
"(AcP Boon) "Bequeathal" of "Convention Hero" to Tao (#2006) @ 1/28/21"

I GMed this one live at a bookstore in San Francisco. At the time, Ancestors Oracle had flat checks against losing actions as their curse progressed - now they just become clumsy. I frequently forget I have this boon, so, for our last convention game together (w/ Tao), it simply slipped my mind. Let me know what other substantiation you need.

And furthermore, if your judgement deems this an illegal move for whatever reason - and/or perhaps I have misunderstand how Bequeathal works for 5 years running - I would still like to use a Hero Point and happy to re-roll.

=)

Grayce Town Apothecarist Interested!

Lough was hit due to being off guard to the opponent's attack because of invisibility. Not that it matters much...

I believe being Off-Guard from fading Invisibility lasts only a single attack. So with two 27's vs AC 28, the first hits OG, the second misses.

=)

GM,
While what I'm proposing to do on my turn works easy enough at an irl table, it's kinda wonky in Pbp.

Feel free to just have Amarynthine use his final action to Shield (to AC 20) instead.

=)

Edit: Familiars use their master's defenses (AC, Saves), so Symbiont should be same as Hyphy, (AC 19)

Fixed the number.

Wait, Kvit's math is better than my math:

I presume the curse is ended?

=)

Looking forward to your Epilogue Kvit!

I'm having a blast this game.

GM really captures NPCs w/ meaningful dialogue, explains parameters clearly, and accounts for everyone's ideas. So. Praise where it's due.

As to the very brisk pacing, I am enjoying it (sure as hell beats the opposite), and understand that if I was only able to post once per day, I would echo Sabrael's feelings.

That said, since it's "one check moves us along" I think it's reasonable, and GM has promised to slow it down some as the scenery structure shifts naturally. A reasonable expectation and compromise.

=)

Vote: Patrol (#4)

But happy wherever we land. I know which two our Investigator will probably choose...

=)

I see continuous evolution of your Combat Tracker btw, and my guess is that you built some kind of app that imports data from the Macro Sheet into a pre-formatted Tracker template. Very cool.

I am especially excited to see the RK skills on the first post - an important detail most GMs skip entirely!

Edit: Familiars use their master's defenses (AC, Saves), so Symbiont should be same as Hyphy, (AC 20)

As Pirate Rob says, there are tabs along the bottom like turning a page in a book. Clarence is on "top" by default.

[Clarence] [Hyphy] [Dakon] [Alanosse] [Andar Oterohermoso] [PC 6]

Shiro Emiya,

GM,
It looks as though they found the tabs, and put their AC and HPs. What other information is mandatory? Initiative? Saves? Skills? Anything we can skip?

=)

Trying to end the source.

Does Amarynthine know if there are overlapping sources of unluck?

Also, I see Black on the Map but shunted through a wall.

The effect has no stated duration...

GM,
Do I roll twice for the Will save? (Unclear)

Kazuki gives one of his votes to Auntie Wu

Need one more vote donor

=)

1: Was Mountain Summit Grass's soul destroyed without making it to the Boneyard?

2: Was there any warning sign that we could use to prevent anyone else from being consumed like Mountain Summit Grass?
3: What was the four gold eyed clad-in-red-robes figure with black sleeves?
4: What can we discover about the man behind the four gold eyed figure?
5: If the four gold eyed figure (or whoever) tries to enter our plane of existence like that again, do they *have* to take the place of a person (as opposed to appearing in an empty space and not affecting anyone else)?
6: Is there anything we can do to stop a person from being consumed the way Mountain Summit Grass was, once it has begun?
7: Was Mountain Summit Grass targeted specifically, or was it random?
8: Was the four eyed figure in the area beyond the Wall of Ghosts, or was it in the mists (in transit)?
9: Could the four eyed figure have stopped our transit through the mists? (i.e., did it choose to let us pass?)
10: Why is the four eyed figure now directly intervening when it seemed like it was just observing?

GM,
This is the longest game I have ever participated in. Thank you for seeing it to the end. This goes on everyone's 'resume' now for seeking other APs on these boards, so, well done.

I started with Lough as an idea, and now I know who he is. It's been an exciting journey of self-discovery. He hath posted his last post, and thus I retire him henceforth...

Still deciding which character to credit this too: I try to keep a solid spread of levels so I can jump into any game. So, will have that character chosen over the next day or two.

Let me know if you need anything else? Wonderful playing with the rest of you as well. See everyone around the boards!

-rainzax

Before I roll initiatives, I still need information from about half the group who haven't filled out the Macros yet.

Alanossë and Shiro Emiya,

Let me know if you need help filling in the "Macros" link in the campaign tab so that GM has what he needs?

I'm guessing Lough's 2nd Strike is a miss (19), so he will likely do the first posted option (Liar's Hidden Blade spoiler).

=)

Climb

[one-action]
[Move]
Source: Player Core pg. 234
Skill: Athletics (Untrained)
Requirements: You have two hands free.
You attempt an Athletics check to move a maximum distance of 5 feet up, down, or across an incline. You're off-guard while climbing unless you have a climb Speed. The GM determines the DC based on the nature of the incline and environmental circumstances; you might get an automatic critical success on an incline that's trivial to climb. If your land Speed is 40 feet or higher, increase the maximum distance by 5 feet for every 20 feet of Speed above 20 feet.

Critical Success: You move along the incline, increasing the maximum distance by 5 feet.
Success: You move along the incline.
Critical Failure: You fall. If you began the climb on stable ground, you fall and land prone.

Requires some effort on the player's part to fully complete the skill scene. GM has provided all needed specs.

All good.

Has been a little better for me, but yes, things take longer, and previews are harder. Holding out hope that the problems are temporary setbacks and not permanent forum changes. If the latter, will have to reduce my games to balance the added difficulties.

@Winter, with the restraint condition you aren't able to do the attack action, but I believe the other two actions stands. but resolving the other post, Leena would have been able to kill the creature on your behalf leaving you with 1 more action.

I swear I looked it up to double-check, but seemed to have missed that - woopsie!

She can be fickle in either direction
