A Merc's Life [OOC 01]

[Scotley]

Sorry, been overwhelmed at work. Not likely to get better until middle of next week. Will share visions shortly.

 

[Scott DeWar]

and we may want to go topside and come down the moldy stairway, just to make sure.

 

[Leif]

Houwlou is up for any of that! Just point him in the right direction, and stay out of his way.

 

[mleibrock]

Ooc

I thought the dimensions were a bit off too but thought maybe it is what it seemed. Maybe give us some more details about the box, kind of metal, carvings...? Tsadok would be leary of opening this with the way Keeland seems possessed.

 

[Scott DeWar]

Harnrey would likewise be wary of such a response to such an item.

 

[renau1g]

Just to give Aodhan's rationalization, he believes (being in a seemingly restored temple of Sarenrae) that Keeland is being contacted by a higher power. Tsadok, although so far doing nothing to harm them, was coincidentally in the very place they were sent to clear out. He'd be a bit leery about that happenstance, after all he follows Lonrach, god of trickery & chaos. Now this individual is in the way of Keeland's vision so he's decided to remove the obstacle from the path with a non-lethal maneuver. Normally I'd just see he pushes Tsadok, but I think this is the best mechanical option in Pathfinder.

 

[Maidhc O Casain]

Gotcha. My first reaction was, of course, "What the heck!?" Then I thought it through, read the Bull Rush Maneuver, and recognized that there's no damage being done (other than to the ego), but it still seemed out of the blue.

Thanks for explaining the rationale - let's see how Mikey/Tsadok plays it!

 

[Leif]

OOC: What the heck? Let's just have a big, general throwdown and beat the s*** out of each other!

 

[Scott DeWar]

barfight!

 

[renau1g]

I think I agree with this as otherwise we could get into an endless cycle of each PC's actions trigger AoO's from each other...besides, it's funnier this way...

This one was difficult to adjudicate - I wasn't sure if Tsadok actually got an AoO since he's unarmed, but then Aodhán is unarmed as well . . . Also, there's nothing in the Core Rules about whether or not AoO's can provoke their own AoO's. Hope everyone's happy with this ruling - if not we can discuss it OOC and maybe hash it out so if the situation comes up again (either with PCs or opponents) we'll have a standard.

Barfight? Man, we all know dwarves (or steven seagal) will every bar fight!
