[CLOSED] Strength of Thousands, Thursday nights 7:30-10:30 PM eastern time zone

My favorite fights are against multiple enemies, we always do well. Like last night with the Death Minotaur’s. (Looks for Wraiths Angry reply)…

My least favorite fights are against the Super Elite Mega Boss that one shots our toughest group member with a crit every round.

Family are in town this week, y’all remember @ocelot? Anyhoo, we’ve all got a dinner reservation on Thursday and I’ll be late if not outright missing the entire session completely.

How to play Atsu:

  1. Do the “thing”; do an Esoteric Lore skill check in the tower. The DC is the level-based DC of the target. Wait for @grapper to tell you the result (Crit, Success, Fail, Crit Fail).

Critical Success You remember the creature’s weaknesses, and as you empower your esoterica, you have a flash of insight that grants even more knowledge about the creature. You learn all of the creature’s resistances, weaknesses, and immunities, including the amounts of the resistances and weaknesses and any unusual weaknesses or vulnerabilities, such as what spells will pass through a golem’s antimagic. You can exploit either the creature’s mortal weakness or personal antithesis (see below). Your unarmed and weapon Strikes against the creature also become magical if they weren’t already.

Success You recall an important fact about the creature, learning its highest weakness (or one of its highest weaknesses, if it has multiple with the same value) but not its other weaknesses, resistances, or immunities. You can exploit either the creature’s mortal weakness or personal antithesis. Your unarmed and weapon Strikes against the creature also become magical if they weren’t already.

Failure Failing to recall a salient weakness about the creature, you instead attempt to exploit a more personal vulnerability. You can exploit only the creature’s personal antithesis. Your unarmed and weapon Strikes against the creature also become magical if they weren’t already.

Critical Failure You couldn’t remember the right object to use and become distracted while you rummage through your esoterica. You become flat-footed until the beginning of your next turn.

  1. Apply either the Mortal Weakness damage bonus from Atsu’s character sheet when doing damage to the target (if she knows the highest weakness of the target, the value of which @grapper has told you) or apply the Personal Antithesis (fatal nut allergy) if the target doesn’t have a weakness or Atsu doesn’t know it, or apply no damage bonus if Atsu failed the Esoteric Lore skill check in step 1.

  2. Atsu’s Esoteric Lore skill check also performs a Recall Knowledge check against the creature thanks to the Diverse Lore feat. Remind @grapper of this.

  3. Thanks to Atsu’s new Sympathetic Vulnerabilities feat, Mortal Weakness now applies to every creature in the room/dungeon/adventure that is weak to the same damage type until Atsu Exploit’s Vulnerability again.

For instance, if you used mortal weakness against a red dragon to apply its weakness to cold to your Strikes, those Strikes would also apply to the weakness to cold of fire elementals or any other creature with a weakness to cold.

Furthermore the fatal nut allergy (Persoanl Antithesis) now applies to all non-humanoid creatures of the same type:

While you have personal antithesis applied to a non-humanoid creature, you can apply your custom weakness to all creatures of the exact same kind. For example, if you used personal antithesis against an imp, the custom weakness would apply to other imps but not to other non-imp devils.

See? Easy-peasy.

Addendum.

The magnitude of the Mortal Weakness damage bonus is equal to the magnitude of the highest weakness of the target that @grapper told you about. You have to edit the Mortal Weakness effect line on Atsu’s character sheet to the appropriate value.

so we are all in agreement, Rando’s character has explosive diarrhea this week

I’ve been asked if I can stand duty tonight. There’s a chance I won’t be able to play. Gotta see if my old laptop works still and if it needs FG to be downloaded on it or not.

So…

To give @grapper a bit of a break, I’m going to be running the Outlaws of Alkenstar PF2 adventure path on Thursday nights. I guess trading off who’s running what on Thursday between each module???..???..???

I’ll put up a new thread so y’all can talk characters and such, and 'cause I like making new threads.

We will be finishing this module off, Grapper hasn’t said how long that would be.

We are playing this week but she said she’s not available the following week. Maybe we could do a session zero with Rando to check out his VTT and mess around with making characters?

So my plan is to be on this week. The only thing that could stop it is if this cold I have gets worse. Fingers crossed it doesn’t. I will be late however because of a zoom meeting we have for our upcoming Italy trip.

Next week I will not be here because of said Italy trip and I won’t be able to get on since we’ll I won’t have a laptop and I’ll be in Italy.

Hope to see you all tomorrow night!
