I learned a couple minor spells. I don't think a price was quoted, come to think of it.

We can always sort the money out once the group is back in one place. But Reve is more concerned about the airship project, and about the now inconsistent information we have regarding the lizardfolk.

Guys, I think I need to withdraw. Too much personal shit going on, and unfortunately PbP falls relatively low on the totem pole. Don't want to inconvenience you guys with any more half-assed Schrodinger posting.

It was fun while I managed it- sorry to split.

It's cool, hope real life stuff works out for you.

Are we waiting on anybody else, or should I do a scene transition where remaining PCs are gathered to discuss the new information?

Jigoku, glad to have you while you had the time, and I hope you get everything sorted out positively.

I'm ready for the scene break.

Sorry for going AWOL like that, but the insanity is over, and I'll have a lot more free time in the coming months.

It's cool. The delays here and in FiscalElves freed up some time for me to work on a pet project that's been consigned to the "maybe later" pile quite a while now. I'm almost to the point of having something I can post in IMHO.

Still, glad to hear life has calmed down for you! :)

Valdym will Summon Monster III for a Dire Badger. Plan is next turn we have it dig a hole we can use to deny dive bombing charges and Yellow can pop in and out to take potshots.
I went to the Summon Monster entry on d20pfsrd.com to look up the burrow speed, but I didn't see a badger listed. Is your character casting off a variant list? Here's what I see:

- Ant, giant (soldier)
- Ape
- Aurochs (herd animal)
- Boar
- Cheetah
- Constrictor snake
- Crocodile
- Dire bat
- Dretch (demon)
- Electric eel
- Lantern archon
- Leopard (cat)
- Monitor lizard
- Shark
- Wolverine

Wolverines are Medium burrowers, maybe you were thinking of one of those?

I think I just forgot entirely that we were playing pathfinder for a moment. Just have me hold an action for Slumber if a hippogriff gets within 30 feet.

Yellows climb skill starts at 6 but I was wondering profession sailor and acrobatics would each grant me a plus 2 to bring it up to 10?

As far as I can tell, Pathfinder doesn't have synergy bonuses. When I searched, the closest thing I could find was an ad for a really sketchy looking splatbook.

Thankfully, you can autopass the DC of climbing this wall with a rope even with your armor check penalty.

So I'm curious. Who do you have in mind as prospective buyers for these baby hippogriffs? Regent Waike? Sovella Artume? Fort Tanveh? One of the gnomes in the Warrens?

I think we should sell to the regent. He's got the monney and the motive to want flying mounts and there is no way he will be able to raise and train them in time to stop up from making out move so we lose nothing

The listed price for a healthy young hippogriff is 500 gp a pop I expect him to pay that because he was able to pay 2500 just because some adventurers he never met said they were going to hunt lizardfolk any man who can afford to be that lose with he's cash can buy hippogriffs for their listed price

Your smileing I guess that means I stepped in the shit with that last comment but I'm still going through with it because I don't meta game and because I don't know what trap I set off yet and best off all setting of the dm's traps. Once in a while keeps things fun and interesting

We'll see what happens.

Reve's Levitate currently has a maximum weight of 500lbs, which isn't much when it comes to huge rocks, although it seems like more than what they're dropping. If there's a more suitably large rock on the ground, she'll levitate that instead, so that everyone can take cover below it.

According to a random PowerPoint presentation on the internet, eggs do require air.

does anyone in the party know how to cast endure elements? seems like that would be the best way to incubate the eggs

And back, sorry for the long delay.

Yeah, eggs breathe through the shell.

Reve can cast Endure Elements (her level 1 spells are fairly comprehensive, save illusion and evocation), but we'll need to see if the hippogrifs had prior owners before we start any projects with them.
