With regards to Black Magga, I was worried that this was going to be a short lived restart! That sort of monster seemed a little on the challenging side.

It is certainly a fairly serious creature!

That said, gives you a taste of how serious things will become :)

Yup, nothing like a CR 15 or so creature with no treasure. . . . Hmmm, pretty sure I recall Harry complaining about that in the past.


VC - Sydney, Australia

Its lair would have HEAPS of treasure :)

Maybe we will find it at the end of the adventure!

Note to self. Learn a long range Locate Object spell.

Why? Did you lose your car keys?

Wouldn't help with that. Pretty sure that lost keys are caused by strong magical effects. Locate Object would probably not be able to penetrate something as powerful as the Replacement Key lobby.

Would it work on the Lost Sock Drawer?

Oh no, you need a Locate Gnome spell to find lost socks and underwear.


Fluid Inter-dimensional physically detached consciousness Roguish Healer/4

Lmao, and for lost Phones? Animals? Kids? :D


Female Changeling(Hulking) Bard/10 (HP: 82/82; AC27; FF23; T14; F+7, R+11, W+7; Perc: +11, Init +10)

Phones are pretty easy. A Detect Evil spell should get them. Detect Chaos for the kids. Animals are harder, although looking through the classifieds should have a few charity barbecues.


Fluid Inter-dimensional physically detached consciousness Roguish Healer/4

Detect Chaos would DEFINITELY work for my munchkin.


VC - Sydney, Australia

I'm likely starting up a couple of light PFS PbP runs shortly.

I am looking at:

Silverhex Chronicles, a game for level 1 pregens, consists of 6 very short chapters.

We Be Goblins - a scenario where you get to play one of four 1st level Goblins on an adventure into crazy town.

Master of the Fallen Fortress, also L1.

Let me know if anyone is keen.


Helllllooooo, lol.

Yeah I can run We Be Gobs/We be Gobs 2, and in June We be Gobs 3 is out.


Moved over a couple of states and had horrible internet for a bit. Glad to see a majority of you fine folks are still about!

I'd trade out a breath of life for wall of stone.

I love blessing of Fervor, but Ailetha can cast Haste several time per day and there is a lot of overlap between the two.

I would swap out at least one Blessing of Fervor for Freedom of Movement, perhaps two. Casting it on Kabal, Karlan and/or Bree before a fight makes them near impossible to impede as it negates grapples, difficult terrain and most anything else.

Prayer is also a great level 3 spell.

Spiritual Weapon is ok, but starts to be ineffective at this level. Restoration(lesser) is probably much more useful. Same thing with Silence. It is a fun spell, but is unlikely to effect any caster at this level.

Ghostbane Dirge is also a great level 2 spell as it makes those big magic weapons carried by Karlan and Kabal do full damage if we meet any ghosts or other incorporeal bad guys.

Align Weapon is another that is great. Karlan can use his smite, but if something has DR/good, it might come in very handy.

Shield of Faith is a great level 1 spell. It will boost Karlan and Kabal's AC by 3 unless they have Rings of Protection already as it is a Deflection bonus.

Remove Sickness is another level 1 spell that can be invaluable if someone is hit with nausea or sickness.

Finally, Advanced Scurvy could be useful to keep Bree and Sable from getting into more trouble.

BEar in mind the other benefits to B.o.F.

Namely the fact that our party spellcasters (including Karlan) can drop Extended versions of all their buffs for free.

For that reason alone a trick that's useful is to cast it before going into a combat situation and then throwing out Extended buffs.


Venture Captain since December 2014

Bilbo, It is always great to hear from you. Do you ever get to any gaming conventions? I am going to be at GenCon this year.

Tark, I am convinced of the benefits of Blessing of Fervor. However, I need some convincing why Wall of Stone is better than an additional Breath of Life. The ability to bring back one from the dead if cast immediately seems like a really nice spell to have around.


Male Orc Expert 5

Breath of life is what you use when someone takes a dive.

Wall of Stone keeps the dive from happening by cutting off the critters from getting to them. It has a bunch of other utility uses here and there. Bridges, ramps, things of that nature can be made with it.

Combo with Stone Shape for extra hilarity.

Military engineers would call their special forces buddies to kill to get what wall of stone does.

As an example where it would have been stupid handy that ogre fight where we fought like 12 of them with class levels would have been much easier if half of them were forced to go around or bash through it.

Frankly if you need more than one breath of life we absolutely should not have gotten involved in that from the start.

Scrolls of breath of life on the other hand are very handy to have.


Male Orc Expert 5

Ailetha.

Only description I could not find so I had to piece together a look from half remembered lines.

One thing of note is that she's supposed to be in hiding so if I went back over it certain things would change. Dyed hair for example. Fake tattoos (or real depending). I took her from Taldan stock, much like Karlan is where Celestra is obviously leaning more towards Varisian.


I'm up for Fallen Fortress, Shifty.


Same to you, Harp. I haven't ever been to any cons. Where are you going?

Nice. Never really viewed her as being that colorful, looks a little Varisian to me, although Taldor has a lot of that as well I suppose from Qadiran influence.

She is actually from Brastlework in eastern Cheliax.


Male Orc Expert 5

But presumably born in Ustalav.

The clothes are mostly varisian, because, well, that's where we are.

I live in such a rural area of Vermont where I am an hour and a half drive away from the closest game store. So, I've started playing a lot more table top Pathfinder by attending conventions. I now hit about three every year. Now that I've started playing a lot of sessions, they began asking me to GM more sessions. Now I am getting to the place where I am running sessions and organizing conventions.

So, this weekend I am running five slots at a local convention in Plymouth, NH called GameOn-Icon. At my school where I work I run a two week Con for high school students at the end of the school year called CabotCon. In June I am organizing Pathfinder Society at New Hampshire's biggest gaming convention called Open Gaming Convention. My summer reaches the high point when I attend GenCon in Indianapolis at the end of July. Over 56 thousand gamers show up and play every sort of game imaginable. I will be GMing in the Pathfinder room with about a thousand pathfinders for 4 days.

In short, Bilbo, I found that playing Pathfinder on a table top is a blast! Not only is a great time, it is also much faster than the pace of PBP. I found that I have become highly engrossed in this awesome game and if you ever decide to go to a Convention, then it would be fun to play at the same table.

Game On!

And I thought that having 6 players was tough, good luck GMing for a thousand.

If the demand warrants, I will run two tables.


Sounds like a good time, Harp. Looks like I moved away from Louisville a little too soon! Indy is only 1 1/2 hours from my house there.

Man, Bilbo! You were very close to a hotspot for Pathfinder! Indianapolis is a place where once a year, people come from all over the world to game!

Still, I found the following conventions listed for Missouri. I'm not sure how far away these places are for you, but if you can make it, you will be sure to have a great time.

Cape-Comic-Con, Cape Girardeau, MO on April 17-19.

Cogcon-25, Rolla, MO on September 18-20.

I also looked up some Venture Officers in Missouri and discovered that you have a Venture Captain in Columbia, MO named Jason Roeder as well as two Venture Lieutenants, Barry Stoddard, and Chris Hayes. I suspect you have a lot of gaming going on right next door to you.

Let me know if anything works out.


Hahaha, divination must be your specialist school, Harp! Thanks for help.

Hi guys. I'm getting ready for a PFS convention this weekend. Not only am I running five different scenarios, I'm organizing it. So, I am running around crazy like right now. I won't get back to posting until Monday. Have a great weekend.
