Interrogation time While we're still busy getting the orphans to the druid's community, we say goodbye to Gale. Auryn asks her to stay safe and to avoid getting indebted to someone who might force her to act against her beliefs. “I really don't want to see you become a slave to someone...

Investigating Soknik Yeah, she knows that there's nothing she could have done to prevent Ekossigan from harming the druids or the orphan. It is more like some sort of fatalism she developed during this episode where she thought that either fate is inevitable (as every prophecy or vision she...

Ekossigan of Winter To our surprise, the Fey Lord's voice is almost calm and aloof, his words clear despite his wooden mask. After this sudden introduction, Ekossigan goes on to explain that he has seen a dark child growing in the Bleak Gate version of Cauldron Hill, a dark weed he plans to...

The issue of succession and the second War Council The group takes Coaltongue, and travels to Magdus' encampment near Korstull via teleport. They introduce themselves as agents of both Seaquen and the Taranesti and, after stating their names, are welcomed by second general Octavia. As they...

that's cool! I gave that part to Syana (who ultimately wanted to find a way to revive Avilona, the Stornchaser Eagle). For the oath of the Aquiline: go for it! Or maybe make it an "Oath of Healing". I'm honestly surprised that there isn't one of the latter out there yet.

As I'm pretty sure we'll get to Time in adventure 12 in our next session, I asked myself about the connection of Jiese, his echo (Time) and the dragon/draconic spirit in the Toteth Topec tale. More specifically: Is the dragon spirit who vowed to defend the mountain of Toteth's sacrifice Time...

Ouch, okay. Dark, but fitting pun. Thought you were on a WotBS reference streak in adventure 5 with the Hurricane Violin and the Colossus ;)

Gallo's school and the return of Gale After her usual training routine and Isobel's lessons, Auryn meets up with Asrabey for breakfast. She tells him about their investigations in Cloudwood and their assumption that this might all point to Ekossigan hiding somewhere in that district. Asrabey...

A dead boy's madness When we return to Delft's office to tell him about the most recent complication, he's more than worried. We discuss whether these terrorist attacks might be connected to something the Obs got planned for the peace conference and that they might simply be another, yet...

...it's just a preview So, after I decided to make a full-body/movie poster of our characters myself, here's the first preview sketch of Auryn: I still need to get the face right for Carlyle, so he's not yet presentable. They both need to be cleaned up and scanned before the digital process...

bombing mission Session 28 As we fear that the whole bombing might be just a distraction from an assassination attempt, we use a haste spell to try to return to the bistro immediately. While we are running westward, we are suddenly shot at from somewhere higher up. We manage to pinpoint the...

I encountered the same "problem" in the later adventures, but thought most of it was due to the fact that Pathfinder tends to escalate in terms of player power compared to 3.5. The enemies in adventure 11 are deliberately weak because there is no way a party could rest inside the Tempest. That...

An explosive welcome As Isobel is still hiding inside the bathroom, Auryn decides to calm her young friend down. She tells her that Asrabey is gone now, so she might just wish to come out and tell her what happened. Isobel explains that the Nightelves are a bunch of men who look like Asrabey...

Asrabey's return Okay, now it becomes clearer. I admit, I haven't seen Twin Peaks yet, but it is still on the to-watch list. (Love cryptic shows, but I grew up with 90's anime and Gargoyles, so yeah...) Also thanks Tormyr. Though I'm tempted to try one myself first. Oh, this will take some...

Visions and Prophecies I've been looking for a good opportunity to give a bit of insight into our crazy theories about the various visions we got during the adventures up till adventure 5. First and foremost, I'm a sucker for cryptic messages, subtexts and hidden meaning and I love interpreting...

Thanks, and you're welcome! Looking forward to reading about your Lee someday. Our chars are trying to wrap their head around his big secret(s) as well. Oh and I'd love to get such a poster. But I fear my favourite artist is notoriously busy and it would be quite expensive. What'd be a total...

I like what I've read so far, but it does have to be tested in real gameplay. Love the complexity and the incredible modularity. My gut feeling is that PF2 is not newbie-friendly as I can guess it has a steep learning curve (learning wall?) to get and memorize all the traits, conditions and...

weapons can be standard (+0), expert (+1), master (+2) and legendary (+3) and you simply add that bonus to your attack roll. Magic enhancements DON'T increate your hit, they add weapon dice based on the + bonus.

Carlyle, the Beast Haha, even our wackier theories didn't go there. But I'm pretty convinced that Fordren Industries is trying to make an Iron Man suit. And I'm haven't even started about our theories regarding Fordren and Pemberton or Nicodemus... --- Carlyle returns to Stray River shortly...
