I will assume Fina read the letter aloud to the group, including Thokram in the mix.

Just to clarify, each platinum coin is worth 100 gp.
Smile beautiful. It's not as bad as you think.

Just to be clear on my end,  Fina is not using the platinum piece to tip the barkeep.  :)

I assumed just a few copper pieces were a tip.

I will progress the group to the meeting place tomorrow evening unless anyone wishes to make any stops.

I'm good with a time skip, unless there's anything of note going on at the Silver Flame outpost that Fina stopped at.

Bump? I'm thinking bump.

Sorry about the lack of update. I'd forgotten how crazy the holidays got. I'll. Get back to this probably tonight.

I hear you... As an extra special holiday treat, I got home on NY day to discover that my basement was under 1.5 feet of water... Still working on how to make sure that doesn't happen again...

Oh man, that's rough. That happened to my old house a few years ago. There was a crack in the foundation and it was a particularly wet year. We had to install a sump pump, and luckily the crack was such that it could be patched fairly inexpensively and effectively. I say inexpensive, though that's just in comparison with any other alternatives. That may also have been the year the roof leaked above the kitchen due to the horrible ice build-up...

Our house is in a low spot, and so has a sump pump built into the basement floor (it really shouldn't have been built with a basement, but that's another story...  :rolleyes ). I guess December was a record-breaking month for precipitation here, and the water table (ground water level) actually got up to/near by basement floor. So the sump pump was unable to pump it out fast enough, and the switch must have overheated from constantly pumping or something. So the pump quit working entirely... Of course this all had to happen during the two weeks we were gone for vacation...  :shakefist

Can I get 5 spot checks, 5 listen, 5 move silently, and 5 hide checks from each party member, 2 initiative checks also. I will be using these as your rolls for future events that wouldn't normally require interaction, such as noticing something special. Any actively taken actions will use a roll taken at that time though. These are mainly to help speed up the action so we don't have to come to a halt if I need a check for something common.

I also need a spot check for the current events in the action

Are there holes in the gates so we can see what's beyond it?

So how long has it been since the bar scene? Wondering if my 1/hr ability is back. :D

The Gate is wrought iron, and behind it, you can see nothing but the stairs behind the gate.

@Phaedrusxy: Sorry about forgetting mindsight. A few friendly reminders might be necessary until I get used to it.

It's been an hour and fifteen minutes since they left the tavern. The party has fifteen minutes until they are supposed to be inside the tower.

So... I just found out that the MiC removed the 1x/day cap on Mindfeeder weapons, and dropped them from +3 to +1!  :o It's less temporary PPs per crit, but still... it's a hell of an improvement, IMO!

Quote
MINDFEEDER
Price: +1 bonus
Property: Weapon
Caster Level: 15th
Aura: Strong; (DC 22) necromancy
Activation: —
Composed of a fl at, rough, slate-gray crystal,
this weapon seems to absorb your thoughts.
When you score a critical hit with a mindfeeder
weapon, you gain 1 temporary power
point for every 5 points of damage dealt
by the critical hit. These temporary power
points last for up to 1 minute. You gain
power points even if the target has none.
As with temporary hit points, temporary
power points do not stack with each
other; they overlap. Thus, if the wielder of
a mindfeeder weapon successfully scores
a critical hit while still enjoying temporary
power points from a previous critical
hit, the wielder gains only the higher of
the two values: either her current number
of temporary power points, or the new
infl ux of temporary power points, whichever
is greater. Creatures immune to extra
damage from critical hits do not trigger
mindfeeder weapons.
Projectile weapons bestow this property
upon their ammunition.
Prerequisites: Craft Magic Arms and
Armor, vampiric touch or psychic vampire
(EPH 127).
Cost to Create: Varies.
