OOCness

Yesmoro reluctantly waits if someone asks him too

Question, if I punch something in the water with an electric shock, does everything in the water get electrocuted as well?

I sure hope so

Nope. Just like a fireball actually works underwater; DnD pays little attention to real world physics.

But you, as GM, could pay attention to those physics, right?

*sexy wink*

OK, Sakana will climb down next if no one else is hopping to this fight.

It’s not just that a fireball works, the effects of the spell change to fit the environment. The fireball becomes superheated steam that explodes instead. I’m not sure how the effects would translate to electricity, but pf makes it a point to have specific spell effects work as written in any environment.

Alyra will summon monster I. Will, is there enough standing water to use dolphins?

Initiative: 1d20-1 17

Amanzi will climb down, using Climb speed if allowed, or else the ladder if available. If someone is on the ladder, he will hold until it is clear.

Once in the water, he will freeze a rat if it comes in range, priority to the dire rat if it appears.
Wintry touch - rat: 1d20+1 13 1d6 4

Nope, not enough water for dolphins. It's about ankle deep on rats - dire rats, but still just rats.

If I get to pick the weapon yesmoro got from the quartermaster could it be a greatsword?

Alyra will move out of the way of the ladder (If she's close) and Summon Monster I above a rat as her standard.

Tanaya will start raking.
Claw, claw, bite: 20, 21, 12
Damage: 2, 3, 1.

IC: Alyra moved into the bilge, standing at the landing and beginning to call out to Tekka when Yesmoro lept in to the waters below. She gave a slight cock of the head and briefly contemplated going through with the long summon anyway, but decided a crushing victory would be worth more to her than proving a point, and that she wasn't in a great position to be losing allies. She concentrated, pulling her eagle from the fold between the material and astral planes. With a wave of her hand, she sent Tanaya to attack.

Yes, it can be a greatsword

Sakana and Queqek can act now.

Shocking Grasp on a rat's bitch ass: Shocking Grasp: 1d20 20 1d6 5

Natural 20! So are crits with spells a thing?

Crits with spells are a thing, as long as a to-hit roll is required.

I'll assume you cast the spell before you descended this time, but even though you can hold the charge, you can still provoke AoO when casting a touch spell.

That's cool. So do I need to roll again to confirm the crit or no? And what are the added effects? Do I roll a second damage die?

You'll need to roll roll again, and if that's a hit, then it's double damage - there are certain things that aren't doubled, like precision damage, but don't think any of those apply for you.

Critical Confirmation: 8

Guessing that's a swing and a miss (for the crit).

Amanzi will climb down, using Climb speed if allowed, or else the ladder if available. If someone is on the ladder, he will hold until it is clear.

Once in the water, he will move to and freeze the nearest rat.
Wintry touch - rat: 1d20+1 13 1d6 4

When it gets back to Sakana, assuming there are still enemies, lets light them up. Lightning Arc domain spell.

ZZzzaaaappp (6 remain): Lightning Arc Ranged Touch (6 remaining): 1d20 17 1d6+1 5

IC: After immobilizing the first enemy, Sakana knew that electricity was quite effective on these creatures. He reared back, eyes flashing briefly with an electrical charge before unleashing a small portion of the power of the storm upon another rat.

Yesmoro will enter a bloodrage (+4 Str and Con, +2 Will, -2 AC) and stand up.

24 to hit (https://orokos.com/roll/801885), 15 Damage (https://orokos.com/roll/801886)

IC: Yesmoro roars in frustration as he stands up. Stuck on a rotten pirate ship for days with not a decent whore in sight, and the first time there's some decent killing to be had he lands face down in bilge water. Infernal fire glows in his eyes as he swings his sword with all his might towards one of the filthy creatures biting at him.

^^I am at the point where I just want the rest of the game to be all of us doing gangster shit like this continuously.

If I need to move my bird to be able to attack, I will, then bite. Otherwise, full attack on whatever's closest.

Tanaya full attack. https://orokos.com/roll/802745
Bite, Claw, Claw: 9, 16, 14
Damage: 1, 4, 3


IC:
Alyra let the bird fight of its own accord, finding a wall to lean up against as she assessed the situation. Tanaya flew at the nearest rat, striking with beak and talon to bring the vermin down.

Yesmoro keeps slashing. 17 to hit: https://orokos.com/roll/802870. 15 Damage https://orokos.com/roll/802871

IC: With bits of the previous rat still dripping from his blade, Yesmoro swings is sword in a broad arc, spraying blood and bilge on the wall as he follows through on his swing.

That's all, folks.

Good kills all around. I am liking having electric grasp AND seven charges of solid zappability on hand. I am thinking with that high dex, I am going to need something with a bit more utility: crossbow or bolas or something like that.

Honestly, seven casts of ZAP is probably plenty for most of these fights. I don't see us taking too taxing of a combat in the lower levels, and when fights do start to get spicy, you're probably going to have enough spells to take you through just fine. That being said, picking up a backup nonmagical option is the right way to go. Bolas would be cool, free trip attempt or something similar would keep you relevant when ranged damage starts getting crazy unbalanced.

Oh its my turn.

Another attack from the bird. Again, full attack if able, or move and single.

Attack https://orokos.com/roll/802930
Claw, Claw, Bite: 6, 7, 16
Damage: 3, 4, 4

IC: Alyra watched Tanaya wrap up the rats from her vantage point with a calm regard. Tanaya continued to swoop and strike where she could, looking to pick off the final rat.

Amanzi keeps his distance, impressed by how well these others work together. Unless the remaining rat comes within range, it looks like everyone has the fight under control.
Wintry Touch: 1d20+1 3 1d6 5

Hope that’s not required

Hey, man. It happen to all of us.

Quick search before/after talking: Search - Perception?: 1d20+8 19

Amanzi heads up to report to Plugg. Unless there's any RP needed there, I'm cool with skipping to night time.

So Amanzi is just going to straight up ignore Sakana's gesture? lol

Wait, what'd I miss?

Edit: Updated Amanzi's action

LIGHTNING BOLT

Sorry, have to head in to the office tomorrow, so need an early night.

In case you're worried, I'm just wiped, not sick.

Glad to hear you're physically OK. Hope work calms down soon.

I feel you. Company's using every excuse to push us. I'm working my second 6 day week this week.

I've just had to go into the office a couple of times this week - and my hair has gotten a bit too long, so not sleeping properly. Had a haircut today so hopefully should be able to post tomorrow after a good night's sleep.

However, though haven't done a 6 day week, work is likely to get super intense till July 31 - I have about a 6 week period, twice a year, where I get insanely busy.

I don't know what we are supposed to be doing right now, boss?

Giving night actions - though yours are set.

Also, as you don't have a lot of influence at this point of the adventure, if you just want to give general plans for 'between set encounters', we can probably speed through this part. But everyone would need to give me a standard plan - even if that standard plan is just 'work diligently'.

Can we just assume that everyone will "work diligently" unless stated otherwise? Otherwise, we might be losing a whole lot of time for gaming for something that should be automatic since it has been that way already.

Works for me

Rule update:

Will post Mon-Fri, Aus time. If no day action posted, or no standard instructions given, work diligently.
For night actions, default is sleep early. May post more often if everyone posts.

Will give slightly more time for fights, though at most 2 days.

This is agreeable.

Standard Day Action: Work diligently. I'll use my class abilities to speed things up, if possible.

Standard Night Action: Make friends. She'll start with the highest attitude people and try to improve relations up to Helpful, then move down the list.

I'll obviously update as often as I can, but if you're ever waiting for me (or just want to update a few days at a time) the above is what I'll try to do during this time.

This please.

I have actions for Alyra and Sakana already, and Queqek will most likely get written out soon.

Yesmoro will also work diligently and rest at night by default

I will take 10 on swabbing the deck for a total of 13

Same for me. I also intend to dump the rum

Rolls for this day/night.
Stealth - Dump rum: 1d20+1 17
Diplomacy - make friends: 1d20+4 8

You can't take ten for these tasks.

Put it down to the excessive stress of the situation. The one exception is if it's a climb check and you have a natural climb skill.

Bilge fun!

DC 12 strength SC 10 Constitution: 1d20 15 1d20+1 12

Piece of cake.
