Scummer D&D

[Brian Skies]

Isaac the Warlock

[Brian Skies]

It's not magicks. We're like a guild and some times some PCs work and other don't.

I was going to suggest doing some of the non-combat interactions in the thread during the downtime between sessions, but I'm not sure how that would affect the main campain sessions themselves if they weren't resolved before hand. At the very least, it could still save some time.

I'm still off on Wednesday.

[Brian Skies]

Isaac the Warlock

[Brian Skies]

At least we still have Kirtha.

[Brian Skies]

I'd be available and able to play for the beginning of the session if you started earlier. But depending on how long the session is, I'd probably have to leave later on like last time.

[Brian Skies]

Isabella Delacroix, LG Human Knight 6

[Brian Skies]

Yeah, I'm dropping the Mounted Combat stuff since we dungeon crawl so much. Fakegod wouldn't let me trade it in for anything. So I decided to go Isabella Delacroix, 'Slayer of Mages, Defender of Squishies'.

I can't afford heavy armor without party funds. I don't know how much we have, so I left it blank.

[Brian Skies]

I could always ride the Giant Eagle, but I'd hate to do something reckless and get it killed.

[Brian Skies]

though I think a Mageslayer class actually exists

Is it Occult Slayer from Complete Warrior?

[Brian Skies]

If you are worried about your Will saves, there is a feat in Player's Handbook 2 called Steadfast Determination that lets you use your Con mod in place of your Wis mod for will saves.

There's also Force of Personality from Complete Adventurer, which lets me use CHA as a replacement modifier instead of CON and doesn't require me to take Endurance first. It's also the Knight's best saving throw.

[Brian Skies]

Isabella Delacroix, LG Human Knight 6

we are going to have to save your ass just ALL THE TIME

I'm not sure what you're referring to, but that's generally the idea.

[Brian Skies]

Lol. FG's pulling all the stops with cameo appearances now.

[Brian Skies]

I took the Full Plate +2 we've been hoarding and sold my other armor for 825 g.

Party pot is 9862 g.

[Brian Skies]

9362 g then.

[Brian Skies]

Teela has a Ring of Protection +1 and the Eyes of Eagle.
Mo'ak has a Ring of Protection +1 and Gauntlets of Ogre Power.

The Mithral Shirt may or may not have been lost after we got TPK'ed last week. It depends on whether Who4 was wearing it or not.

Who used up the Scrolls of Burning Hands and Levitate.

I don't know where any of the other stuff is.

[Brian Skies]

Varsoon might have the Longsword +1.

[Brian Skies]

I'm gonna be that guy and take the Ring of Protection +2.

Party pot is at 8758 g after T-Bones Masterwork Daggers.

[Brian Skies]

I can make it.

[Brian Skies]

I'm taking the Bracers of Armor +1. I'm also getting 10 potions of Cure Light Wounds.

Party pot's at 7938 after Mo'ak's Masterwork Greataxe and my potions.

[Brian Skies]

The party has a total of 39823 gp.

[Brian Skies]

There's another encounter we have to deal with. It'll be explained in the summary, probably.

I'm spending 350 gp on more potions.

So 39473 gp.

[Brian Skies]

That's the general gist of it. I was writing a summary but Quadz' is shorter and better.

We weren't able to identify the exact spells that were affecting Isana and Ivan, but that they were from the school of Necromancy and of a high level. We were also able to deduce the woman from the sarcophagus was most likely the same vampire from the feast of Marangal's tribe.

[Brian Skies]

(Meanwhile, Isa tanked like 6 fireballs to the face and took... 2 damage?)

This was my favorite part of the encounter.

I liked the tentacle thing. Unfortunately, the placement of the spells made it incredibly difficult for either side to attack each other until those caught in it died. I didn't even know there were other mages in the chamber aside from Gif pointing them out (which was fine because the plant thing had to be dealt with). I'm just curious as to how much damage the plant could have done had it landed any of its attacks.

[Brian Skies]

Buying an Amulet of Health +2.

Funds are now at 31,473 gp.

[Brian Skies]

31473

Cloak of Resistance +2 4000
Undeadbane Greataxe +1 8350
Potion of Lesser Restoration x 2 600
3 CMW 900
Scroll 800
Undeadbane Sword +1 8320

8503 gp left

[Brian Skies]

Also there looks like there is a TON of camping space within those walls so...

I do believe I see a small forest within those walls.

[Brian Skies]

I'm still working on it, but I've decided to play a Paladin.

Katherine Delacroix, Paladin.

[Brian Skies]

I'm half tempted to make a Commoner right now.

[Brian Skies]

We could always playtest it. :3

[Brian Skies]

I helped her choose her character image. Does that count as inter-party communication?

[Brian Skies]

I can use it as ammunition for my sling?

[Brian Skies]

So you're saying I can still maybe kill a goblin with it.

[Brian Skies]

You should only check the box for your skills if its a cross class skill. You have the checkmarks backwards and it tallies it for you on the bottom.

[Brian Skies]

I don't believe you added me to the game yet.

[Brian Skies]

Oh okay. I thought I had to be invited as it didn't show up on my account. I should be at a computer in a bit.

[Brian Skies]

Sunday is good for me.

[Brian Skies]

Cheetory, don't forget to select feats for your character. You get one at level 1, and a bonus one for being human.

[Brian Skies]

Oh, okay. I didn't realize those were feats.

[Brian Skies]

I'm assuming we lose a month if we wait for Avina to graduate.

I'd like to continue exploring the monastery.

[Brian Skies]

You were there.

[Brian Skies]

party loot: 5 CLW pots
1 invis pot
2 arcane scrolls: magic missile, shield
ring of protection +1

+756 gold

[Brian Skies]

@lilith: I think you should pick something that looks fun for you.

If you like magic, you can try a sorcerer or a wizard. Druids are also good spellcasters and they get an animal companion.

If you want to hit things, you can try a barbarian, fighter, or knight.

If you like the idea of doing both, you can try a duskblade.

Our party leader is planning on hiring an NPC rogue to join us, so you do have the option of taking over that character with FakeGod's approval, or if you really like the idea of being a rogue, you can be one too. Ninjas similarly take advantage of sneak attack like rogues, but generally have an easier time getting in position to deal sneak attack damage. Both are good choices if you like the idea of a stealthy character.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask them in this thread or join us in the dnd site chat lobby.

[Brian Skies]

Yeah, Hana plans on hiring the captains assistant that we met in the goblin stronghold. Hana has some ulterior motives for it though.

I thought the main reason you were multiclassing into rogue was for the sneak attack damage.

[Brian Skies]

Jackel, I think you're better off playing a duskblade or a druid. They'll fit into our party better.

[Brian Skies]

My character might be a dick/pissy at you though

Kel is a fighter at heart and probably wouldn't even notice.

[Brian Skies]

I'm very interested to see what comes of Who carrying the bag of gems.

[Brian Skies]

Well, technically it's for

safekeeping

. We

are

in a tavern staffed with ex-convicts after all.

[Brian Skies]

wow holy fuck

I just learned that swift hunter feat from complete scoundrel is amazing

Lol. Didn't I ask you about this feat a while ago?

I'd need to multiclass as a scout, right?

You would need at least one level of scout to even take the feat because the skirmish feature is a prerequisite. How much of each class you should go into depends on what features you want to utilize from each class.

I'm not going to be able to make it this Sunday.

[Brian Skies]

Pick someone to control kat in your absence

Gif.

[Brian Skies]

I should be able to make it this time.

[Brian Skies]

I should be able to make it.

[Brian Skies]

I should be able to make it. (:

[Brian Skies]

Who is in charge of party funds and equipment, and he should be able to tell you what we can afford.

I think you should place any item requests here in this thread ahead of time, but waiting until your first session is fine too. You can also probably find one of us in site chat or in the Scummers D&D site chat room.

[Brian Skies]

Kat only swears allegiance to Lor.

On an unrelated note, Kat is now the same level as Isa.

[Brian Skies]

We should invite them on a cruise on the Nightsail.

Kat picked up Celestial and Undercommon.

[Brian Skies]

Regarding solo adventures and split parties, I don't mind them so long as the players involved are conscientious that there are other players at the table and we only get about 3 hours to play per week. I didn't have an issue with Who's solo adventure, but I was also doing other things, so I'm a little biased (although I was part of an air brigade that got tpk'ed and wasted an entire session, so I think I can understand how some of the other players might feel about being relegated to spectate).

[Brian Skies]

All I'm saying is that the solo option exists in this campaign because I said so, and I want everyone to be able to exercise it without fear of people getting angry.

^This.

I don't know if you let others know, but you did tell me it was going to be an option for this campaign and I told you I was fine with it. I also think spur of the moment decisions can be fun and exciting. It kind of reminded me of Keyleth in that one series.

@Who: I wouldn't take delight in seeing another PC die. :[

[Brian Skies]

I won't be able to make it this week.

[Brian Skies]

We can't send Karl's owl to deliver her a message beforehand?

[Brian Skies]

I won't be able to make it this week.

[Brian Skies]

I should be able to make it this time.

[Brian Skies]

I'll accompany No Two.

[Brian Skies]

Then I won't be accompanying No Two.

[Brian Skies]

It doesn't matter to me. My character has an oath to Lor, not the gnome. I just don't see a reason to have both the tanks together if we're splitting.

[Brian Skies]

You're not even proficient with one.

So does this mean I could make a character proficient with rifles?

[Brian Skies]

Awesome - just did! Thank you for your help!

Spoiler:

Most of the information you need is in the first post of this thread. Fake God has included a list of allowed source books for this campaign. I suggest taking a look at Players Handbook I first as that's the most basic and core rulebook and has all the information you need on learning how to play the game.

After that, take a look through some of the other books and look for something you think will be fun to play. Most of us are also new to D&D and are very noob friendly. Feel free to ask us for advice or ideas as well!

Once you've made your character and feel comfortable with the rules, just join us for one of our sessions and you're good to go. If you go to the stream Fake God set up, you can even watch a video of one of our typical sessions! We have a lot of players already, so you're free to mostly pick something you think looks fun to play rather than worrying about filling in.

This is our general party composition:
Tanks
Danum - Knight
Kat - Paladin/Kensai (no magic)

Melee Damage Dealers
Lor - Rogue/Swashbuckler
Seline - Duskblade

Ranged Damage Dealers
Avina - Gunmage (main protagonist )
Karl - Ranger

Battlefield Control
Who - Wizard

????
Ether - Bard (NPC)

We used to have a Cleric. While it's really helpful, please only pick it if it's something you want to play and not because other people want you to.

[Brian Skies]

I'm just going to forewarn you that Fake God likes combat and might kill your character if you do something worthy of death. But if that's what interests you the most, go for it. There are some other basic classes in some of the other books though.

[Brian Skies]

Rogues can be ranged.

[Brian Skies]

Listen to your heart.

[Brian Skies]

Poor FakeGod.

[Brian Skies]

You're not even proficient with one.

So does this mean I could make a character proficient with rifles?

Sure. Take exotic weapon proficiency (rifle).

Here are some stats for renaissance firearms from the DMG, which are allowed in most of my campaigns (including this campaign):

Pistol - One handed, 1d10 damage, Crit x3, range 50ft, Piercing. Standard Action to reload.

Musket - Two handed, 1d12 damage, Crit x3, range 150ft, Piercing. Standard Action to reload.


Here are stats for a futuristic weapon from DMG:

Antimatter rifle - Two handed, 6d8 damage, Crit x2, range 120ft. Unnamed damage type. 2 shots per clip. Move action to reload.

This is very tempting.

Do I build it similar to a ranged fighter?

[Brian Skies]

FakeGod, Destroyer of Dreams.

[Brian Skies]

That's for a futuristic campaign though.

[Brian Skies]

You can always refluff Warlock to fit flavor.

I was thinking this too. And I already know Warlock is OP sniper.

[Brian Skies]

Hahaha! Kat is no substitute for the great Danum Argon!

I was here first and you're behind bars.

[Brian Skies]

Also, if there are demons in the ruin, I should definitely go since I'm a Paladin and my sword is Holy.

[Brian Skies]

Sure, but I'm still better against evil creatures. And until you get out of jail and back to the island, you don't get a choice in the matter.

[Brian Skies]

Besides, I thought you were busy looking for this other Lunagarde.

[Brian Skies]

We really should start thinking of a way to get you out of prison though.

[Brian Skies]

How much is a bag of holding? Can we just buy another one?

[Brian Skies]

The Soul Gems aren't going to disappear if you post bail.

[Brian Skies]

But we could put a bag in a bag.

[Brian Skies]

FakeGod doesn't play with that mechanic.

[Brian Skies]

I won't be there. Try not to die without me or Danum.

[Brian Skies]

You can make the argument of "gnomes are rare where we are, thus that small similarity gets magnified and is perceived as a large similarity, thus they will", but I will counter with "Alcoholic failure, Lawful vs Chaotic, Why do you need a girlfriend when you're an adventurer anyway" and it looks more like they won't.

Plus she's taking the spells you worked so hard to obtain. That should be the nail in the coffin as far as a wizard is concerned.

[Brian Skies]

I had a theory before tonight. I'm currently working on a new one.

[Brian Skies]

Warforged looks like a really strong race.

[Brian Skies]

Also, I should be able to make it.

[Brian Skies]

But if Craft is invested in, Warforged can potentially heal themselves (and they don't need to sleep, so...). It's also pretty cool to have a sentry for when the party needs to rest. Do you allow the new spells as well, like Repair?

[Brian Skies]

I will be there.

[Brian Skies]

When I was trying to name my sword several weeks ago, I was researching names of famous fairies. I didn't read too much into it, but it did creep me out a fair bit.

[Brian Skies]

I still need armor.

[Brian Skies]

I'll probably be sticking with my druid build if Gif is serious about going Frenzied Berserker.

I'm also willing to play cleric, reflavored warlock, sorcerer, or some sort of rogue depending on what we need.

[Brian Skies]

or if I can't find a good one just barb 1/Fighter 3/War Shaper 4/Fighter X

I believe a Changeling's favored class is Rogue, so you would be susceptible to multiclass penalties on this one.

[Brian Skies]

Brian Skies: Shapeshift druid
Who: Barb/Fighter/Ranger/War Shaper

I kind of don't want to play a druid with a Changeling War Shaper since I don't see my character wanting to travel with something I myself am having trouble picturing as anything other than an abomination. But maybe that's just me.

I also partly don't want to play tanky or bruiser dps if other people are providing opportunities to fill another role.

[Brian Skies]

I'm pretending to be a half-orc. Later I'll grow a horn and say I like unicorns when questioned about it. And then I'll get the ability to lengthen limbs, including stretching my neck 5 feet out to stab someone with my horn. And okay that's kind of an abomination.

I'm in major support of you going with your build since I find it really interesting. I just don't like the idea of me being a druid if that's what you're going with. I kind of want to see what others want to play before deciding what route I take.

[Brian Skies]

Wait a minute what are you. You shapeshift more than me. I just make minor alterations to myself, you become a totally different thing.

Shapeshift is just a focused Wildshape. I also take the form of a nature related creature or treant (level 12?). War shaping is very abomination-like. I don't see my character wanting to travel with you, and it's not something I want to deal with down the road when you eventually get Warshaper.

[Brian Skies]

I'm not playing LG.

[Brian Skies]

Wizard/Sorcerer are on my list of what I'm considering. Along with Cleric (depending on Karl on how I feel about the party needing a Cleric), duskblade, and Warlock. Also, Warforged X because why not?

[Brian Skies]

I'm not playing LG.

Lawful Good is great if A. You have people (coughkarlcoughnotwocough) who make your LG life hell or B. Helpless people to protect.

It's not really worth being LG unless your party is like minded. I find Hana to be a godsend in this respect, but Who and Conman are very problematic.

[Brian Skies]

Brian, if you are going wizard, which school are you going to specialize and ban? (or are you going generalist?)

I haven't thought about it since I literally only considered Wizard/Sorcerer after seeing the new party composition.

[Brian Skies]

If Hana is serious about Warmage, I'd probably ban Evocation and one or two of Necromancy/Enchantment. Abjurant Champion also seems pretty cool, but has high requirements.

[Brian Skies]

I don't know much about enchantment. But I think it's pros and cons are similar to those of a beguiler (albeit much less exaggerated). I haven't really looked at the spell lists, so it's hard for me to make that decision.

[Brian Skies]

Transmutation honestly seems like the best to specialize in, even if you are using different school mainly

I like the idea of Transmutation, but I feel like it's something a Cleric can do (and Clerics get full plate armor).

[Brian Skies]

Clerics don't get the good buffs. They don't get haste, they don't get enlarge person, they don't get the good stuff.

They won't get haste in FG's campaign, but getting Magic Domain allows them to cast Wizard spells at half their Cleric level.

[Brian Skies]

I know how it works.

[Brian Skies]

I know how it works.

[Brian Skies]

Why did you ban Necromancy?

[Brian Skies]

I've started a Specialized Transmuted build. I'm currently undecided on whether to Focus and ban another school.

[Brian Skies]

Master Specialist is currently part of the build. But I'm considering whether it's worth taking a Level 5 bonus feat over it. Paragonstic Apostle and Fatespinner are also part of the build.

[Brian Skies]

I've decided not to take Master Specialist.

[Brian Skies]

Did Conman lock in Cleric?

[Brian Skies]

Also, rip nature alliance. ):

[Brian Skies]

don't worry ConMan; cleric class is so strong that you can choose suboptimal builds for RP reasons and still easily pull your weight

What about Wizard?

[Brian Skies]

I might specialize in Illusion.

[Brian Skies]

Or Necromancy, but Necromancy is :/

[Brian Skies]

Max 18 I believe.

[Brian Skies]

That's still pretty high. Higher if you're a gnome and/or have spell focus.

[Brian Skies]

Gnome's get +1 racial. The +2 is for their saves. They can still get spell focus (illusion) for another +1.

[Brian Skies]

Also I need to build up a family tree for the Holz family so I don't have to retcon it every time I wanna play a new one of them. I feel like I'll hide one in there who is a total black sheep relative to the family

This reminds me that I need to go back and finish my Delacroix backstory.

[Brian Skies]

I've decided to

reintegrate Master Specialist into the build and

Focus Specialize.

[Brian Skies]

Can I PM you instead?

[Brian Skies]

I'm having a rough time, so some mod interaction will be nice.

[Brian Skies]

I'm on a phone.

[Brian Skies]

Sorc Necromancer is intriguing. I'll look at it later tonight.

[Brian Skies]

Cleric/Ordained Champion.

Locked in.

Hextor or Heironeous?

[Brian Skies]

Thank you. I enjoyed writing it and reading your response. I found it enlightening.

[Brian Skies]

Yes.

[Brian Skies]

I've decided to Specialize in Necromancy.

[Brian Skies]

Or Illusionist. I'll decide tomorrow.

[Brian Skies]

with correct feats I can have +14 will save as a LV 8 frenzy. I think that sounds plausible.

22 con at lv 8 (+6), class feature (+3), rage bonus con (+2), rage will save (+2), cloak of resistance (+1)

I'm confused. Doesn't Con boost Fortitude?

[Brian Skies]

Nevermind. Steadfast Determination lets you use your Con Modifier.

[Brian Skies]

I was considering taking advantage of his low Will save with Fear spells, except Frenzy makes him attack all enemies with complete disregard to his own safety. So now it's pretty much figure out how to stop him until his effect ends (or give him bonuses to his Will Save like Guidance or Resistance).

[Brian Skies]

I don't think I've ever been in a position to Cleave, let alone Great Cleave.

[Brian Skies]

I don't think I've ever been in a position to Cleave, let alone Great Cleave.

I'll have 25 feet of reach.

?

[Brian Skies]

25 ft? That's more than most BBEG's.

I can get him to 15 ft, I think.

[Brian Skies]

I can get him to 10. I think he gives himself another 5, but I don't know how his class feature works.

[Brian Skies]

Weird, I thought reach weapons only gave another 5 ft of reach.

[Brian Skies]

His build is busted.

[Brian Skies]

And of course he dumps Wis.

[Brian Skies]

Is GIF still planning on grabbing Frenzy?

[Brian Skies]

I've spent the last day thinking of how to stop Gif. Now I have to think of contingency plans for stopping Who.

[Brian Skies]

I'm locking in Necromancer.

[Brian Skies]

GiF's still planning on going frenzied because the rest of you are going cabbage. Unless he's changed his mind since last night.

Your build and Hana should be pretty strong. Duskblade isn't cabbage.

I've spent the last day thinking of how to stop Gif. Now I have to think of contingency plans for stopping Who.

Target will, my will save is going to be shitty until I go occult slayer. Or ref, my ref save will be eh. Don't target fortitude unless you want to end up on the end of my spiked chain.

And GiF is going for a build with very high will save. If you buff his will save by a tiny bit more he'll be guaranteed to make his save. (And he gets immunity to natural 1s by one of the feats)

You're surprisingly easy to deal with compared to Gif.

I'm locking in Necromancer.

Wizard or sorcerer?

If wizard, focused or no?

Link your char sheet if you are able.

Specialized Necromancer. However, this team is going to need a Focused Transmuter, so I'm locking that in instead.

[Brian Skies]

I suspect I don't have to do anything other than survive.

[Brian Skies]

It depends on the party.

[Brian Skies]

We can also be a Changeling.

[Brian Skies]

I think there's another, but I can't remember what it is. Tiefling?

[Brian Skies]

Disobedience and Dispel Magic are 3rd Level Abjuration spells.

[Brian Skies]

I'll play a cabbage instead.

Why ban Illusion?

[Brian Skies]

I'm going to go back to being a Necromancer. I'll link you my sheet once I figure out how to do it.

[Brian Skies]

Loji Gravemore, Specialist Necromancer.

[Brian Skies]

Oh, I am. I made some changes last night and was considering what spells I was going to take if I specialized in Illusion.

[Brian Skies]

Which do you like more, Loji Gravemore or Loji Greyheart?

[Brian Skies]

No. It's either going to be Wiz 3/MS X or Wiz 5/PA 2/Fatespinner X, or Wiz 3/MS 3/PA1/Fatespinner X. The Loji sheet was a clone of Pimpernell, so I haven't changed the skills yet.

[Brian Skies]

I'm probably going to go with Wiz 3/MS X.

[Brian Skies]

Wiz 5/PA 2/Fatespinner X, or Wiz 3/MS 3/PA1/Fatespinner X

I'm going with one of these two, depending on whether I want Greater Spell Focus.

[Brian Skies]

It is a valid concern.

Banning illusion means you are losing INVISIBILITY.

That's a pretty high price.

If Gif still wants to go with this build, I'm willing to be a Specialist Illusionist and give up Ray Spells.

[Brian Skies]

Okay.

[Brian Skies]

Or Architecture and Engineering for those pesky locked doors.

[Brian Skies]

Someone else can take that. Knowledge Devotion (for me) gives me AWESOME bonuses on damage and attack rolls with a knowledge check. Well, awesome later on.

I know what Knowledge Devotion is. The joke just went over your head because you weren't there.

[Brian Skies]

New plan to save the world:
Someone (DS or Hana) dips cleric, we throw money at the problem. Now we have a cleric.

We already have a Cleric.

[Brian Skies]

HOLY SHIT KARL HAS A KID!?
HOLY SHIT KARL'S KID IS OLDER THAN - Wait.

She ROBBED him, god dammit!


But she likes green so it's all G

Apparently Kat is her martial arts teacher, which I'm fine with since Lor basically owns Kat.

[Brian Skies]

That's not bad.

[Brian Skies]

I think it's pretty cool that Conman can draw his own characters.

[Brian Skies]

If I'm enlarged, does my weapon go up a size category as well?

[Brian Skies]

I took the scabbard so I could drop Keen for Speed, yes.

[Brian Skies]

): That's a whole D6 worth of damage I wasn't using against that cave monster.

[Brian Skies]

The dwarf secretary guy will not let you in. Teleporting/invisibility + levitate or fly into Halle's room works. Pretty much anything works really, because Marion is the trump card when dealing with Halle.

Wasn't this suggested by someone and we didn't do it because of X reason?

[Brian Skies]

I thought FG banned Artificer.

[Brian Skies]

I'm going to be a Beguiler.

[Brian Skies]

I dunno. I was never making a tank to begin with.

[Brian Skies]

Touche.

[Brian Skies]

If by splitting you mean having smaller parties complete different objectives within the same campaign, then I thought we were already doing this. However, I'm against having an A Squad and a Scrub Squad as I feel Scrub Squad would find it difficult to survive on their own.

If by splitting you mean two separate campaigns, then I'm okay with it and I will play something else. As far as spoilering goes, it's also pretty easy to deal with if you're willing to create Private Topics for each separate group.

[Brian Skies]

Anias, Human Beguiler

[Brian Skies]

Wait you're not the face? Who's the face?

I could, but I'm sure the optimized sub-party will figure something out.

[Brian Skies]

I will face under the condition someone else maxes Sense Motive.

[Brian Skies]

If you play beguiler with the man pictured in my last post he will fight the enemies while you helplessly cower in a corner.

Ftfy

[Brian Skies]

If you play duskblade with the man pictured in my last post, he will annhilate your enemies and laugh piteously while you pretend to be helping.

[Brian Skies]

Loot:
132 gp
Necklace (enchantment)

[Brian Skies]

We have to go back and get it from the crushing spider.

[Brian Skies]

Expensive. Would probably be cheaper for you to roll a new character.

[Brian Skies]

Did we ever sell that shiny yellow gem?

[Brian Skies]

Available.

I read the logs, Brian: "Anias Faroe: disobedience is a level 3 spell tho
so we only have ourselves to blame ", disobedience doesn't work against Confusion. Disobedience is basically just protection from evil but it does the whole fake thing. I had protection from evil on, it didn't help v suggestion.

It blocks charm and compulsion effects. Where are you getting that it blocks evil spells? Confusion is a compulsion spell.

[Brian Skies]

Also, we already bought Hana's divine companion.

[Brian Skies]

Available.

I don't know if Confusion falls under 'ongoing control over a subject,' but Disobedience doesn't protect against evil spells.

[Brian Skies]

Yeah. Not able to completely block Confusion, but still something we could have had prepared.

[Brian Skies]

To be fair, I had no idea we were gonna fight Ryslin until right before we did.

I thought Disobedience was better than it actually is. Protection from Evil is what we actually needed.

We know there are other entrances to the mine. Do we have the option of looking for the other kobold encampments/groups?

[Brian Skies]

I remember there being a small rest area for the kobold scouting/mining party. But I can't remember what was in it. Would there be enough materials, tools, and other supplies from their sleeping area and mining office to create make shift bridges to cross the platforms?

[Brian Skies]

By spiders or kobolds? Also, what if we took the materials back to our camp?

[Brian Skies]

Also, did we sell that yellow shiny gem we found at the beginning? Or just whatever we found from the chest?

[Brian Skies]

I also vote against going back to town if we can avoid it.

[Brian Skies]

Your sheet says Knight, but everything else implies Paladin. Are you a Paladin pretending to be a Knight?

[Brian Skies]

I'm excited to see how you play a Paladin with magic since I gave up magic last campaign.

[Brian Skies]

Are you taking any of the alternative class features? I remember you could give up your mount for charging smite (I think).

There's also an interesting Underdark Champion acf you might be interested in instead depending on the amount of dungeoneering we do.

[Brian Skies]

I will be able to make the next session.

Lilith, don't forget that Paladins are Lawful Good and that they get Diplomacy as a class skill instead of Bluff.

[Brian Skies]

Oh, that's cool. It's not that different from a regular Paladin anyway.
