Pathfinder2e The Spurned hath no fury like alchemy

OOC:

This is precisely what I figured what she was doing, tossing the vane as a distraction. Sadly the dice here freakin’ loath me.

Carth tries to keep an eye of the thief.

(*All of you have a hero point!)
Okay, I read the book. Deception to "Make a distraction" pits your perception Vs Her Deception.
Those who succeed gain a +4 bonus to not be fooled by future distraction attempts.

Deception Tn+2, Lvl +5, Cha +2, +2 its getting dark. = +11

Rolls

Distraction attempt - (1d20+11)

(20) + 11 = 31

Mar 2, 2020 4:45 am

and followed by stealth...
Stealth Ex+4, lvl+5, dex +4, +2 its getting dark = +15

Rolls

Stealth check to hide - (1d20+15)

(11) + 15 = 26

Two 20’s, I know who’s getting my good rolls. Does being an Elf make darkness slightly less relevant? Of course I am a bit of a bonehead when it comes to not being deceived.

...And invisibility potion.

You have the weather vane though, small victories, eh?

Yes low light vision does enable you to see in Dim light as you would Bright light. Subtract 2 from her deception attempt (*Only Mara and Logrith) because the dying of the light...

END IRL Day GM: I will crash now and begin first thing when I have completed my replenishment and meditation...

OOC:

Could one detect magic to track her? I mean I’d love a blue glowing trail to follow but I’m grasping at straws. Ponder it, Mara’s going to try it anyways.

It’s good to see I’m not the only person who can’t roll over 10. 😂

Despite dark-vision, the orchard grove and gardens clinging to the only soil for leagues provide some concealment...

Oh.. IRL 24hr (March 2). Game time is: aprox: 1805 hrs, day 0. Recap: the thief seems to have gotten away, but not with her prize.

OOC:

The thief used; a (20gp) potion of invisiblity and x2 scrolls of Level 3 Jump (30gpx2= 60gp) in terms of her magic items she purchased in character creation.

Mara scowls, irritated at herself for loosing the thief, "Where did you go?"

As a final act of desperation she goes to where she last saw the thief and casts detect magic to see if she can find anything.

OOC:

Would the range increase work on this spell?

I will double check the book.
Listen everyone, I was wrong. Just because the rules say "there was a distraction" it does not mean ALL OF YOU have to fall for it. if it is your choice, you can keep hunting the thief down-> and I say this to everyone. PLAYER choices of action trump the rules. I was only trying to abide by the rulebook as much as possible. I have gone a step too far. My apologies.

GM: Winding time back a tad. there is a metalic crash, and the thief uses that moment to hide, drink a potion of invisibility, and GTFO.
Some distance further away, and a minute or so into the future the thief uses another scroll of Level 3 Jump, in an effort to increase the difficulty of tracking. She's trying to escape, she's trying to be smart about it. thing is...

She's on foot (Speed 30) and you all are on mounts... Horse Speed: (Checking the book).

OOC:

Logrith, your bear is Large size. You can ride white-claw if wish. Bear speed is: (Checking book/beastiary).

Mar 2, 2020 9:15 pm

okay, book has been checked, Detect magic has a 30ft emanation and the Reach Spell (metamagic) feat states "a spell with a Range".
Sorry, but no.
Additional details; The only info gained (as a cantrip it is AUTOMATICALLY HEIGHTENED to half your level rounded up... Mara 5, Detect magic is therefore 3rd)
So; you can ignore you and your allies magic, you can sense the strongest magic in the defined area, and identify the school it comes from.
However, the spell text does not detect residue after the fact or enable you to track on going magic that has left the area.
(*Seems like you may have discovered a new spell idea to submit to paizo via their request forums though.*)

I’m full of something, no one’s ever said it was a good idea. Thank you though for your research.
