Aww, dang, I've enjoyed playing with you and Aazim. Seeya around!

Thanks for playing with us!

For everybody else sticking around, you may now level up to level 2. :)

@Pedrop, are you still interested in continuing?

@Dmbrainiac Once again, I enjoyed the adventure under your awesome GMing! Thanks to you for running the game; it was a blast. Now, let's see what we have for the next mission.

Yay, level 2! Also echoing Stalker05's sentiment! It was a great time, as always. :)

Yes great fun. Wolfram is discovering he's a better person than he thought he was. Has a way to go though yet. 😄

Loot:
- Sword (?)
- Quiver + 4 Arrows (wanted by Lauretta)
- Elixir of Healing (Suggested for R3N-L3)
- Crystal Orb of Climbing (Suggested for Tzal, Wolfram, or Gabalan)

Lauretta would like the quiver and arrows, as she will likely be investing in a bow in between adventures. We all seem to be doing well on melee weapons, so the sword can go to whoever wants it as a backup weapon. Alternatively, we can probably sell it. The elixir of healing is probably best given to R3N-L3, as he is a frontliner and struggles more than others with healing damage.
The orb could be well-used by a ranged character. Climbing into a position that keeps out of melee is a great strategy. Tzal, Wolfram, or Gabalan fit that description.

As for coin, it's likely to be split up 4 or 5 ways, depending on how many PCs we still have. I'll be operating under the assumption that the people of Traveler's Rest, such as Marya, can help us split up our coin evenly.

Total Coin:
- 2 gold pieces
- 27 silver pieces
- 36 copper pieces
- 5 silver pieces per character (20 or 25 total)

If divided in 4 ways, then three PCs would receive 1 gold, 7 silver, and 6 copper while one PC would receive 1 gold, 7 silver, and 8 copper.
If divided in 5 ways, then four PCS would receive 1 gold, 4 silver, and 1 copper while one PC would receive 1 gold, 4 silver, and 2 copper.

Since silver is far more common and useable than gold, it's more likely that you'd subtract the gold and add 10 silver instead.

Lauretta hasn't taken notice of Wolfram's more suspect characteristics, which I'm finding fun in!

R3N-L3 could definitely benefit from the potion of healing, but would GM allow Clockworks to heal from potions? Holy lubricant oil of the Weird Wizard?
R3N-L3 pretty much only wants a Breastplate as his end-goal armor, since full plate would be dramatically expensive and likely not something he'd get unless he kills a knight........Murderous Clockwork noises. So for now, he's quite content to save up to that point, and of course, he doesn't have greed programmed into him.

Technically, there's no rule that says clockworks can't use elixirs. :P It was the same in Demon Lord. I always just assumed the magic of the liquid repaired them thanks to the magical nature of the clockwork.

As for full plate, R3N-L3 could definitely afford it as long as we get that far. Typical quest rewards ramp up a lot in Master tier. Even then, there are some outliers among the published adventures. I was running an Expert adventure for some friends the other day and they found 100 gold pieces.

I plan on beginning the next adventure on Monday, so you have some time to level up if you haven't done so already. We'll pick up a month or two later, in a village called Two Forks. You can write a little bit about what you get up to during your downtime if you wish, but it's not necessary.

Alternately, there is a table in the GM's book for random happenings during downtime, some good, some bad. You may optionally choose to take a random roll on the table and I'll tell you what happens to you. :)

Exciting! Shall we roll those and write descriptions in the Chapter 1 thread or here? Also, as a priest, would it be possible for Lauretta to craft Holy Water during downtime?

You can write it in the chapter 1 thread.

Yes you can craft holy water.

I am thinking Tzal will spend the downtime working and earning.

Level up done for R3N-L3! He took the Brute style for even more health and defense, so he's now sitting at 40 health and 18 defense

Wow! That's over double Lauretta's new health of 18! Her big acquisition this level is two novice spells.

I am still away until the 13th. I'll try and find the time to level up and keep posting.

Ok I am leveled up and added a fighter style of brawler, so he's good at range and melee.

One question, though: Do I ignore the bane from making an unarmed attack? In other words, does the boon cancel the bane, or is the boon in force since the bane is being ignored?

Yeah, Brawler both removes the bane to unarmed attacks and gives you a boon to them.

Thanks!

I have leveled up and am more or less ready. I have a question: Can Tzal use blank book pages to write inscriptions? Also, the rule that I read regarding inscription is that you can spend one of your castings to write spell inscription. But then it can be used until it is expended. Does that mean I can get back that casting once I rest and still use spell inscription?
