Knowledge: Engineering
Nice...that's a knowledge Pai didn't have yet!
I am going to be out of town next week again, with limited access starting Sunday
Just a note. I'll be away from my computer from Friday afternoon until Monday this upcoming weekend. Please run Pai as necessary I might be able to check in occasionally, but I'm not sure.
Did that first slumper attack get to crit? Thinking Pai may be right about paying him off lol.
Maybe it would have been easier, but you know Ruperta, she likes it the hard way. :P
That first attack did NOT crit. He's not an easy foe.
Yikes!! A tough fight I like it.
Have no child excuse on that dice one, I swear I typed it... sorry!
No worries. I thought it was pretty funny.

Ooo good stuff!
Can I get the list of spells in the necro heavy spell book when you get time, DM?
The dead necromancer's spellbook contains:
5th--feeblemind, hungry pit, suffocation
4th--animate dead, dimension door, enervation
3rd--hold person, lightning bolt, ray of exhaustion, vampiric touch
2nd--blindness/deafness, false life, ghoul touch, scorching ray , spectral hand, touch of idiocy
1st--chill touch, grease, mage armor, ray of enfeeblement, shield, shocking grasp
0--acid splash, bleed (DC 18), detect magic, read magic
It seems somewhat light on spells; he must have hidden other books elsewhere...
I can take the cloak +1 if no one has any objections, I have not had to make too many saves yet since i stay in the back
Mechanically, I think I would benefit more from the Amulet of Natural Armor +1 than the +1 mithril shirt (I will add bonuses to my +1 studded leather instead to be able to take the dex bonus benefit as well). Paxs can use the mithril shirt can't he?
I'm fine with you two taking those items.
Ruperta should obviously take the Wisdom boosting item. Does Slumper want the +2Cloak?
I wouldn't mind the +2 cloak and I can give someone my +1 cloak. I seem to be failing even the high fort save stuff :P
Pai has a +1 cloak, so I don't need it, slumper.
Identification continued!
- 2 potions of healing: Cure Moderate Wounds
- 2 magical breastplates: +1 breastplates
- a magical plague doctor's mask: plaguebringer's mask
- magical cloak: cloak of resistance +1
- magical ring: ring of protection +1
- magic jar of thick greasy unguent: unguent of timelessness (6 doses)
Looks like Ruperta, Paxs, and Corbyn all could use one of the two +1 Cloaks. Slumper is offering up one, and DM just revealed there is another one.
I think Corbyn needs one for sure. Checking for traps will lead to a bunch of saves, I'm afraid. The other two could figure out who gets the last magic cloak.
Everyone except Slumper and Corbyn could use the Ring of Protection +1, I think, since they both have one. Ruperta should probably get that, since I think she's our third melee-er. Paxs and I neither one want to be close to the fighting, I don't think.
Slumper has the rapier but doesn't particularly need it, if someone wants it. Right now his big thing is healing. I already burned through my 2 cure moderate potions.
sure i will take the mithril shirt unless Ruperta can make good use of it, but i think the breasplate may be more up her alley
I'm 99% sure her and I already put on +1's a fight or two ago (the big one with the vats before she got thrown in)
Assuming that's the same group if it is it's the below
1 used(me)- 2 potions of healing: Cure Moderate Wounds
both used(me and Ruperta)- 2 magical breastplates: +1 breastplates
I think used..(Pai or Corbyn I think...)- a magical plague doctor's mask: plaguebringer's mask
- magical cloak: cloak of resistance +1
- magical ring: ring of protection +1
- magic jar of thick greasy unguent: unguent of timelessness (6 doses)
Why doesn't everyone write down what they want or have claimed, and we can use those to figure out what we have left to sell.
Pai claimed teh wand of magic missiles and the spellbook. I can make scrolls for you of whatever spells you can cast as well, Paxs, if you'd want them.
Ruperta should take teh Wis item and a breastplate. I think she should probably take that last Ring of Protection +1 as well.
The only thing I want from the list is the amulet of natural armor +1.
Cloak of protection +1 and the mithril shirt +1
Pai--wand of Magic Missles, Spellbook, magical plaguebringer's mask
Ruperta--+1 breastplate, ring of protection +1, headband of wisdom +2, potion of remove disease
Slumper--2 potions of Cure Moderate Wounds (used by Slumper), +1 breastplate, cloak of resistance +2, cloak of resistance +1, potion of barkskin +4--Slumper should take this for an emergency
Paxs: +1 mithral shirt, + 1 Cloak of Protection
Corbyn: amulet of natural armor +1
Probable items to sell:
magic jar of thick greasy unguent: unguent of timelessness (6 doses)
+1 vicious scythe
+1 breastplate--is this an extra one that needs to be sold?
+1 humanbane rapier
Does all this sound correct? Anyone want one of those nifty weapons? A rapier might be really good for Corbyn...
Corbyn is specialized in short sword. I could use it as a secondary weapon though.
I had it from the last fight happily give it up as soon as we get out of the current fight.
If Corbyn is a short sword guy, it'd probably make more sense to sell the rapier, and divvy up the gold, so you all can enhance the weapons you want to fight with. Same for the scythe and the extra breastplate...pretty good coin in those items. At 6th level, it's time we get you a magic weapon, too, Corbyn!
I have been saving my money and should be able to afford making both of my short swords +1 once we finish this part of the story.
In a city full of humans might be worth me retraining to use the rapier once we level up Better crit range too... We can then sell my +1 longsword.
Good point, Slumper.
Lol, oops. Forgot about the people.!
Yep. By the time we get back, I'm sure they'll be exterminated. Ruperta will be so mad at us when she gets back. She so wanted to save those people.
She won't like the greater good angle but maybe saving Slumper would have caused her to do it. Made me chuckle when you pointed it out...
hps
Taking Intimidate and Perception as my 2 skills.
Shield Slam as feat Benefit: Any opponents hit by your shield bash are also hit with a free bull rush attack, substituting your attack roll for the combat maneuver check (see Combat). This bull rush does not provoke an attack of opportunity. Opponents who cannot move back due to a wall or other surface are knocked prone after moving the maximum possible distance. You may choose to move with your target if you are able to take a 5-foot step or to spend an action to move this turn.
Other abilities-Received Armor Training 2
I'm leveled up and updated only thing left is the 2500 worth of stuff. I added the bull rush mechanics to my character page as it should be something I do quite often in the future. posting it here too in case anyone interested:
Bull Rush
You can make a bull rush as a standard action or as part of a charge, in place of the melee attack. You can only bull rush an opponent who is no more than one size category larger than you. A bull rush attempts to push an opponent straight back without doing any harm. If you do not have the Improved Bull Rush feat, or a similar ability, initiating a bull rush provokes an attack of opportunity from the target of your maneuver.
If your attack is successful, your target is pushed back 5 feet. For every 5 by which your attack exceeds your opponent's CMD you can push the target back an additional 5 feet. You can move with the target if you wish but you must have the available movement to do so. If your attack fails, your movement ends in front of the target.
An enemy being moved by a bull rush does not provoke an attack of opportunity because of the movement unless you possess the Greater Bull Rush feat. You cannot bull rush a creature into a square that is occupied by a solid object or obstacle. If there is another creature in the way of your bull rush, you must immediately make a combat maneuver check to bull rush that creature. You take a –4 penalty on this check for each creature being pushed beyond the first. If you are successful, you can continue to push the creatures a distance equal to the lesser result. For example, if a fighter bull rushes a goblin for a total of 15 feet, but there is another goblin 5 feet behind the first, he must make another combat maneuver check against the second goblin after having pushed the first 5 feet. If his check reveals that he can push the second goblin a total of 20 feet, he can continue to push both goblins another 10 feet (since the first goblin will have moved a total of 15 feet).
Until later this will mostly be used to keep people off Pai, Ruperta, and Paxz as I will just push people away.
I meant to ask can I retrain to rapier during the level up to take advantage of this human bane rapier and will the antidote rest etc. cure my str/con weakness even if it doesn't cure the disease itself?
You may retain if you wish, and time/magical healing will cure you up. You'll start the next chapter somewhat scarred by your brushes with disease, but not damaged!
DM, is the 2500 credit able to be pooled with gold we already have for a "bigger" item, or is that for one separate and distinct item?
Depends on what you want: the Treasury may have it. Or it may not...
So... if Corbyn wants 2 +1 short swords, can he pay the guard 1500gp on top of his reward?
Sure, that would be acceptable!
DM, I'd like to pool the 2500 gold plus 500 more to look for a Lesser Metamagic Rod of Bouncing. It costs 3000 total.
Would it also be possible to find a pair of burglar's bracers and an ioun torch?
The treasury wouldn't hold those items, but if you wish, the Marshall will give you a letter of credit drawn on the Bank of Abadar. With that, you should be able to find any of the three items.
Hey Pai did you come up with a final accounting of our stuff left to sell by chance? I kept the rapier but we have a +1 longsword from me to add back into the mix.
I would like a +1 Magic Spiked Small Shield (The Magic for the weapon not the AC in this case)
