Ok I create an OOC here for in game questions.
Game OOC
Be sure to read and follow the guidelines for our forums.

I wait a reaction from everybody about the post concerning the problem with the Net and the snake with the appropriate dice check.
I will respond after everyone has post something.

Not sure if the Diplomacy check was needed but I figured the guys responsible for setting up the tents and the high wires would know where to get a new net,or how to fix the damaged one.
Mar 16, 2024 10:41 pm
Martha's clown juggling act isn't meant to replace the finale but to buy some extra time for the rest to prepare and fix the ongoing problems, @YullyBear.
EDIT: Nevermind, skipped the follow up message from you. I'll take it from there on I suppose.

Maybe we could convince them to work without a net? Play to their ego? Death defying?
Mar 17, 2024 10:19 am
In circus Management & Shows you have all the numbers possible for the show. The only rule is the performer must perform only once and have a crew position for the show.
Convincing them would be Diplomacy or Intimidation depending on the method.

Dammit! A 6, a Hero Point, and a 7, I need to just stop rolling ... ugggh ... sorry guys ...
Mar 17, 2024 4:04 pm
Good call Birdman! I forgot about the ruffians in the crowd ... I will respond to those after my (failed) diplomacy attempt with our next act.
Mar 19, 2024 6:29 am
You still need to find a solution for the 3rd performer in the Finale.
So far The Kambali are not eager to do their tricks without a net.
You can still try to persuade them or find a replacement trick.
Courage this is the last part for the show !

Vespera botched her diplomacy, so I bowed out of finding a final Trick, and went to deal with (hopefully) the last disturbance.
Mar 19, 2024 8:52 pm
Isn't it more difficult is someone tries the same check?
What other acts does the circus have left?

Mar 19, 2024 9:35 pm
No I consider even if Vespera failed, she called on the Kambali sense of duty and what Thunder meant to them, so there isno reason to give them a malus, I would even give a +2 bonus for the feeling she stirred in the Kambali.
All the NPC tricks have been used, and there is still Vespera trick that can be used since she did not take any crew job, but she won't be able to help with the people that bother everyone.

I think I already performed my trick with the guys who were going to start a fight.
Mar 20, 2024 8:29 am
Nope it was an impromptu and since you had to improvise rather than perform, it was not your rick per se.
Mar 20, 2024 8:40 am
Litta, roll a trick DC 15 or you may Coastar for example the Kambali to encourage them for their tricks due to the rel danger a success will bring 3 excitement, a fail none, a critical fail will make them fall and try a save roll to get back up. (criticall fail => >= 10 fail margin)
You are very near a critical success in the show, it will take some counting for a critical success you must have has many excitement as anticipation, for a success more excitement than anticipation.

Did Litta's 20 on Acrobatics do anything? Wasn't sure if that was a separate trick, or a co-star.
Mar 22, 2024 9:23 am
I was about to wait for the last trick from Litta ith a -4 malus, but you right let's deal with the disturbance.
So Gray & Vespera deals with the brutes
Litta is performing, Martha & Gicero are bonus clowns.

Yully, am I able to use my Champion's reaction to reduce the damage the brawler does to the audience member?
Mar 22, 2024 2:22 pm
Yes, but you arrive just before they begin to hit. So you may interact before a fight start.
Mar 23, 2024 11:17 am
Yeah. Got a 13 that time ... though the 16 might have one of them Frightened, but still not very good for us. I am tempted to drop the non-lethal, stab them a few times to get them to piss off, then heal them with my paladin stuff later. Heh.
Mar 23, 2024 12:10 pm
Be careful, you have an audience that may not appreciate the use of lethal weapons. Non lethal is ok, I am waiting for GGGray roll and response, then I will deal with your post when it will be your turn in combat.
Mar 23, 2024 3:41 pm
No, they do not go before you, but Gray has still an action this turn and need to roll his initiative.
Mar 23, 2024 3:45 pm
They rolled 6 & 7, respectively, and Birdman rolled a 10, and I got a 22. I think their actions happen then we're up again.
Mar 23, 2024 6:15 pm
Ok I made a mess of explaining, and so nothing s clear anymore ...
So Vespera did a surprise action with Retributive strive that failed
Gray tried to attack with a surprise that failed too.
We begin round 1
- Vespera Demoralized the wife
now it is Gray turn, thn the couple of drunks.

Got it, didn't realize there was a surprise round. Gray will probably try the same thing again
Mar 23, 2024 6:55 pm
Wait, the reactive strike was a reaction not my turn. My 'surprise' round was the demoralize and (failed) strike. So she should be getting an action on round 1 as well?
Sorry, I'm just super confused and trying to clarify.

Ok, there was not yet any action, so the reactive strike was not possible, in this case you have action in this round before the couple react, go ahead, and post.

YullyBear says:
A couple of humans, obviously drunk is shouting, whistling, scoffing at ever trick. THe audience near them begin toask them to stopand leav, which increases their behavior and violence. When Gray & Vespera find out about the notice, they can sense that soon the couple will strike on one of the audience, you can sense that's what they wanted from the start : a good fight !
Mar 24, 2024 9:55 am
Anyways, posted another senseless diplomacy check because I am really not happy about the situation and that we basically, just started the fight ... sigh ...
Mar 24, 2024 12:50 pm
For your info, diplomacy would not work in this particular case, unless you get a real good result. These two are here to provoke a fight, that's the only reason and are eagerly waiting for one.
And you still have 2 actions.
And you still have 2 actions.
Mar 24, 2024 3:11 pm
I refuse to take them, my hostility was predicated by the assumption they started the fight, which was inferred when you said I could use my Retributive strike ((which would only occur if they had attacked someone)) since we retroactively edited that out, I'm not taking an offensive action. However if they hit someone, I will intervene.
Mar 24, 2024 5:33 pm
I'm going to exit the game. Thanks Yully Bear and good luck with the adventure. It's such a great idea I wish you all best of luck.
Mar 25, 2024 8:18 am
We are finishing with the show, but in order to continue interest, we will begin at the same time on the murder of Thunder.
Mar 25, 2024 9:58 pm
Just checking, will we be performing again in this town? Or packing up and headed to the next town?
Mar 25, 2024 10:43 pm
Sorry. I want to play but I am sort of confused on what is going on.
We did a show.
Fight is going on. Can I join the fight?
Who is Thunder?

Mar 26, 2024 2:45 am
Thunder is the former leader of the circus, found dead right before the show.
Some of the audience got rowdy and looked about to start a fight, Vespera wanted to intervene but there was a bit of mixup regarding whether they'd actually gotten violent yet. IMO we're mostly wanting to defuse the situation.

Yeah, I apologize for any confusion on my part, lol! It's been a long, chaotic weekend at work and it is only going to continue this week ...
Mar 26, 2024 2:49 am
No worries, I'm still hopeful we can resolve this in a halfway decent manner. There surely is a nonlethal way to end the fight.
Mar 26, 2024 3:14 am
I mean that 9 damage almost KO'd me, and I'm not sure if it was lethal or non lethal
Mar 26, 2024 6:19 am
Wait, did you remember to add both class and race HP values for your starting HP? I didn't at first either, but Martha has 22 HP now. Vespera should probably be around the same.
Mar 26, 2024 9:17 am
Vespera is an Elf, base 6 HP, has 8 Con, a -1 HP adjustment, and Champion has 10 HP base. So 6+(-1)+10=15. Elves are built for grace, not durability! Hehe ... I made her something of a glass cannon ...

Actually Vespera is more melee support than straight front liner, but good question. Do we have beefy front liners ... lol ...
Mar 28, 2024 11:46 am
@testlum: Concerning the bucket trhowing itdepends if you plan to only throw the water or put the bucket on the victims head as well.
I propose another Stealth move DC 15 to see if you can be near enough without them to notice you, and an acrobatic vs AC to put the bucket on the head or just a range attack circumstance bonus +2 to throw the water on one adversary. If you have another idea please tell me.

Uh, the plan is to just throw the water on them. Like splashing a group of fighting cats.
EDIT: Might I also check whether combat in the future will also be run gridless? I'm happy to play games that use theatre of the mind, but I do not think Pathfinder 2E is quite fitting for it. Particularly due to movement rules like Step vs. Stride etc.

Narrative wise it was meant to surprise the angry guy and make him sputter, distracting him from brawling. Maybe in terms of Pathfinder 2E mechanics, it would demoralise him?
Mar 29, 2024 1:35 pm
Oh I thought it was meant to sober him. I take some liberty sometimes from the rules, so yes he will be mad but will not react this turn.
Mar 29, 2024 2:18 pm
@Smiley Pathfinder 2E works on an action point based system. Typically you get three to spend a turn.

Mar 29, 2024 2:31 pm
Yep that's true you can try 3 attacks if you want, first check normal, second -5 (-4 if agile), third -10 (-8 is agile). Only one with sneak attack though.
Mar 29, 2024 2:55 pm
There shouldn't be a limit to sneak attack on a rogue, as long as your target is Flat footed. Unless it specifically states in the action, like Double Slice or Flurry of Blows.
Mar 29, 2024 4:57 pm
You're right, I need to be more careful and take more time before posting I mixed up with another game. So yes you get Sneak attack on all attacks.

Perhaps you could use the blunt end of the glaive as a quarterstaff? Not sure whether there's any penalty to do so though.
Mar 30, 2024 2:19 pm
Yeah, any weapon can do Non Lethal, you just take a -2 to do so, unless it has the non lethal trait.

Ah sorry I got confused since Martha stepped up to the man and not the woman in her last turn.
Apr 1, 2024 11:32 am
I think Gray dropped the dude with Vespera's glaive. I could be wrong though, I've been KO'd ...

Correct, the man is down, I meant to write it, but after checking the hit, I kinda forgot.
About Gray I am waiting for his questioning Sam. I will wait the end of the conversation, before moving to Thunder's wagon for a first investigations.
I am adding a map section in the main chat to include any useful maps. The first been the camp layout.

Question, since Gray & Marta are talking to Sam, while me and Gicicero are searching the Ringleader's wagon ... do you want perception rolls from us to search it, or should we just assume that as a group everyone is participating in every scene?
Apr 5, 2024 10:40 am
In this case, you were investigating around Thunder body while they were quickly discussing with Sam, so I ruled that you would all leave for Thunder's Wagon together.
You may all roll a perception roll if you want to.

Speaking of, I'm perfectly fine and happy to have GM roll stuff like perception and initiative. It saves time in PbP.

Sorry it's been a crazy week at work. Just prepping for my VTT game this afternoon, then I will get caught up. Vespera will Lay on Hands to heal the ruffians of any lethal wounds, and then ban them from ever returning to the circus. They get black listed. I will get caught up this evening, I promise.

No problem, this is a game so if you have something IRL just tell us you will be unavailable and will wait. So no problem.

You do not have lead for the moment, but may be there is no real lead yet. To have leads you have to search, and for right now all of your friends are worry about booby traps, like the one you found in Thunder's wagon. So may be searching other wagons is not a bad idea and could bring you some new leas.

Everyone sleeps in wagons, but some prefer to pick their bed and sleep outside when it is nice, life can be quite crowded in some wagons.

So, what do you do ?
Gicicero, you are drugged, but not so much as been unable to do anything, right now you have only a harder time to do stuff, that's all, because you have to concentrate to pass things you see and you know are not real.

It has nothing to do with you as DM, the game, or the players.

I will try and work to fix this but IDK what to do.
It might just be from added stress or other BS reason.

Also, how are the two snakes positioned relative to each other?

No, but you are on a path in a forest, true it is somewhat at the edge but you need to walk a little before meeting the snakes, and in a forest or wood distance attack are quite difficult and snakes are difficult to see.
Apr 27, 2024 10:56 pm
I'm sorry, but I am having a hard time parsing this. Could we have a simple grid or just numbers saying how far the snakes are from us? 40ft, 60ft etc so we can know how many Strides it takes to reach them.
Apr 29, 2024 6:31 am
Thank you for the maps! Do we not know where the snakes are? I thought we did, since we know we are fighting them. I don't see them labelled.
Apr 29, 2024 7:41 am
You can see the little snake, but the big one is well hidden. I need to know your position before adding the small snake.

Well barely enough, only two. I may try to get more, but i will take some time.

I thought the plan was to make the illusion some distance away from, so they leave the real backpack to get the fake one?
Jul 16, 2024 2:18 am
They'd probably noticed that and try to grab it, so I made an illusion on top of the backpack instead. That way they can take the backpack, but it will look like it's still there.
Jul 17, 2024 4:21 pm
can Gray try and help lift the pack? or would he have to try and grab it on his own?
Jul 18, 2024 8:21 am
For Grey to help, he has to come as well, but yes he can, you won't be able to move it to the edge of the wood this turn so. It means if you try to move it your hands are not free and transporting the heavy backpack the two of you will be considered "off-guard" (-2 AC) if the mephit attacks.
For Martha, it is a pure strength roll.

He attacked twice with his sword, but both attacks missed. If I repost and roll again there's a chance he might hit this time, I just want to be fair and honest

By the way, Gray should get to attack with -2 to the enemy AC if he can position to flank the mephit with Martha.

ok, I'll roll 'em again then
edit: missed again, at least I'm consistent, lol

For the hand crossbow attack I'd already included the -5, that's why was I only getting +1. Without the -5 it would have been +6

XP corrected from the start. FYI I do a mix of xp earned and level waited. For example chapter 2 require level 2, so if you did not get enough XP, you'll be level 2 at he start of chapter 2. If you get enough xp before, you gain level when you reach 1000 xp.

I'm fine with however you want to distribute XP.
By the way, for future reference, let's always assume Martha is using non-lethal attacks with her fists. She's not really aiming to kill so much as knock people out if possible.

Hi YullyBear, I have a suggestion about the game. There's been a couple of times like right now where I feel like our characters have been bumping into invisible walls, like there's a specific approach you would like us to take before we can continue the story.
To avoid the game slowing down, is it possible in future scenes for you to give us the possible actions we can take that will still make progress? For example, when describing a castle we need to enter, you might say that we can bribe a guard, shapeshift into mice, or convince someone to introduce us. Options that will lead to us moving the story forward.

I admit, I am bad at getting subtle ( and even obvious hints) especially in pbp. If we are venturing down a path you feel is a waste of time, just let us know.

OOC:
Here there is no specific approach, but to break a woden windows or door There is a resistance of 5 Hp, that means if you do damage 6, the wood will only take damage 6 - 5 = 1. A stone is 1d6 damage and the nummber of hp of the wooden door windows is 20+Sep 1, 2024 10:53 pm
Since a round takes 6 seconds, I'm happy to spend a minute or two breaking the window. I'll change it to Martha's fists though, and I'm not sure what a window's AC is but it can't be that high.

Giving a heads up that I'll be traveling for work in the coming week, so I might be delayed in posting. Feel free to move the scene as needed.

Was there any indicator that the webs belonged to giant spiders?
can we just flee?

No there was no reason to think it belonged to giant spider, it was just odd to see them in a neat garden.

It may be even worst than that, the campaign got much more difficult than anticipated.
But non of you wanted to check the camp for Thunder's killer, so you missed it.

Maybe I'm mistaken, and correct me if I'm wrong,, but we searched the camp, and only found the odd plants in o e of the cabins. Then we followed the clues to the water beast with the backpack, and the map with the mill and orchard marked.
So you're saying the natural consequence of not finding Thunders killer, is that the murderer(s) came back and killed ALL the circus staff?
And I sincerely apologize if I did anything that increased the GMs workload.

No, you did not search the camp.
What happened i you found a trail where you got the map, and you decided to go where their was crosses, and twice or thrice I asked you if you were sure to leave the camp without a through search.

Sorry, I think I will be withdrawing from this game.
I've been finding it difficult to figure out what we're supposed to do in the story, and the tone of the campaign has turned out rather differently from what I expected.
Thanks for your GMing until now @YullyBear.

Same. Thanks for DMing, but I don't think my plans and the game's meshed well together.

I understand, missing the killer pretty much killed the campaign. In the story, now that the killer frightened the town it will try its maximum to make them leave, meaning everyone who stays in town will be murdered until the town is empty. As you mostly guessed it is a druid who turned entirely against civilization, and want to get rid of any town where she leaves.
If you have some questions about the story, I can answer them before you leave.
I will close this campaign after.
