I should have asked this the last weapon, and I'm too lazy to go look for a discussion on it. Can gnasher rage while he's held? How about if he's stunned?

Yes, he can still be raging and heal and have any other benefits that do not involve moving. He just has to keep all that rage bottled up :)
Do you enter the room?
Gnasher will, just wanted to give both Malgrim and Seif an opportunity to add, whether it's a knowledge check or some wisdom or just a little RP. I'll get a post up tomorrow moving gnasher in.
"I can if we want. I doubt we would drag them out of here to sell when this is over anyway." Malgrim says with a shrug.
So are you going to take a shot at one? We can call it a surprise round :)
If they react you can move back behind, gnasher if you want. Also, for map purposes you can assume gnasher will move back and let Malgrim take the front spot to take his shot. (unless he'd rather shoot around gnasher? not sure how your targeting works best.)
I can fire around Gnasher. I will do so.
LOL, I guess I should have asked if gnasher passed within 10 or 15 ft of the thing, but it doesn't matter now does it :)
But since it's a large creature, a 10 ft reach can almost be assumed... good thing Gnasher has that reach weapon.
By the way, I love your transparency...
RAW, Shadow won't do anything without Seif-al-Din telling him to, so don't expect anything from me for the moment :-/
I always figured that if a companion has the IQ of a 6 year old, it can act like a 6 year old. Since you are her friend, protecting you would be reasonable.
RAW, even a high-Int Animal Companion is hobbled by their Tricks - so it *does* default to Guard, but if it is not attacked directly, and I am not either, it shouldn't take any actions.
At least, that is how it was handled in PFS 1 games...?
Frustratingly, if I had had a chance to direct Shadow to attack *before* falling asleep, it wouldn't be a problem :-/
I agree. I would go further to say it could take reasonable and simple actions to protect you. So it would not try to feed you a healing potion but might drag you to safety as that is just common sense. So if you want you can have Shadow perform an action like that. Unfortunately, she would be gentle when moving you so it would not wake you up, and there is the matter of an AoO from the abomination.
Indeed, two of those shots land. That is quite a dip in AC - from 26 to 19 when you rage. I have a feeling you are going to feel it this round.
yeah, the goal is to kill them before they kill Gnasher...
Currently, a giant tentacle monster is literally standing on it. I am pretty sure the tiger would find that to be a threat to it.
Yea, if you can rationalize Shadow's actions, and it makes sense to me, I'm OK with it. This is not PFS where everything has to be pristinely RAW.

Just remember that if you do not take precautions against the gaze attack it could be all over with one failed save because he WILL gleefully CDG you.

True, hadn't even thought about the 'gaze' attack. But Gnasher has lived much longer than most gnolls... at least the ones we've met :)
Would Shadow like to eat the tentacle monster standing on it?
Technically, when Shadow woke up, he would have been shunted to the nearest available space (to avoid squeezing).
So no.
When I thought gnasher was asleep I returned him to regular size and put him in the furthest corner, He was aright up against the jackal beside the pillar at the beginning of the round.
I remember. Just needed a little prodding of the memory.
*cough*
There should be an additional +2 on all of Shadow's damage rolls, thanks to Divine Favor. That's what I get for not adjusting my macros properly!
What about the to-hit? Should they be adjusted too?
No, I put in the to-hit properly.

I am taking a small family trip for Spring Break. We leave Sunday and return sometime on Tuesday. I am not sure how much free time I will have to post, so please feel free to bot me as needed.
The swarm does not move and Synn is long gone by the time you wipe it out. Gnasher dispatches Father Jackal for good and the lion sleeps off its summons. The abomination still lives thanks to all the non lethal damage inflicted.
I didn't recognize the name 'Synn' did Rayhan see the person that called the swarm? Would he know anything about them?
I'll also have Gnasher ask in game once he dispatches the aberration.
Yes, you will find out it is Synn (The being that has been plaguing you and charming Malgrim. She sent an insect plague after Tarak earlier.) once Rayhan gives you a description, though the insect plague would have been a clue since she used it on you guys at the oasis.
That's funny, I did a search in game for 'Synn' and didn't find anything, I forgot about Gnasher's "Mute Girl"
That's her. I could have sworn I named her Syn or Synn. I might have spelled it differently, or maybe got the name wrong.

Nope just added an 'N' Syn shows up multiple times :)
I just got used to calling her mute girl that I didn't remember her real name
while in the opposite corner stands a small round table and a large chair occupied by a strangely still humanoid who's form is mostly hidden inside a voluminous and luxurious yellow robe.
well, Rayhan did give us a chance to head home.
I'm just hoping this fellow is not the 'King in Yellow' right, Seif?
I doubt it. At the time, Paizo did not have the license to use that particular piece of IP. Something like a Denizen, however, might be possible; I remember them showing up in scenarios for PFS.
Also, I am perfectly happy to have healed Malgrim.
miteke everything cool?
Yes. Travelling a lot and attending a funeral so posting is a little slow.
That's cool, just wanted to make sure we didn't miss anything. Sorry to hear about the funeral...
Agreed. I hope the funeral was a nice reminder of whoever it was for.
He was a good uncle. Ended up having less time than I thought so I did not think I needed to warn you all. But posting as a GM takes more thoroughness than a IC post and I ended up abandoning a post I started.
Sorry for your loss, miteke, take all the time you need.
Your right about the difference between posting as a character and a GM, I'm learning that the hard way.
Well, seems like Gnasher may have picked a fight with the wrong fellow...
I agree with Gnasher. If you need a few days to be with family, you should take it.
I think we were going to fight him no matter what. But losing a bunch of Dex is going to quickly be a problem.

Not as much for Gnasher, we just need to keep him away from everyone else.
Now I'm wondering if he's a ' Pactmaster'
Agreed. IRL takes precedence over online!
As I mentioned I do not own books 4-6 so this is the end of the journey. Well done you lethal misfits.
Some how I missed that...
Well, it's been fun! Thanks for running the game miteke, I didn't think I'd ever get to play Gnasher in anything, I appreciate the opportunity.
Malgrim, it's been a hoot, I'll see you in Rizz's game.
Seif, thanks for jumping in with us, I'd invite you to play in any game any where.
Miteke it's been wonderful, I really appreciate the way you're willing to answer questions. I'm hoping you'll consider running something else, this has been a blast.

I'm considering it, but the Outpost convention has me booked to capacity.

Thanks for the game!
I am incredibly glad that the final fight did *not* end up being a TPK! I shudder to think what would have happened if we had not taken that thing down this round...
If you decide to do another game I would be happy to throw my name in for it. Thanks for running such a fun game!
I'm so glad you liked it. Very encouraging.
I noticed that the PDFs for the next three modules may be found floating out there in the Internet ether. Anyone know if it is legal to use them, particularly on Paizo forums?
I don't think they have any way of checking or even try to check for how you got the modules. I have only signed onto run one game, but no one has ever checked with me for where I got the modules or how I have scans.

I've no idea about the legality of it. and I'm not going to ask either way...

That is certainly true, but I am an honest sort and would not do it if it was not allowed.
