Re: DrK Savage Tide Reboot OOC
Just a small ship of the line, she wouldn't even count by Napoleonic standards.
Not all will be full decks, I'm just making sure I'm leaving enough space on the canvas. Compared with The Wyvern there's an additional poop deck and an additional mid-deck, and five ballistas to a broadside instead of four.
Only slightly more powerful than The Wyvern but substantially larger. More of an armed merchantman than a warship. I feel that's both thematic and allows The Sea Wyvern to contribute at a similar level in battles combined with the skills of the PCs.
But the amount of space on board Nixie is pretty luxurious in comparison.

Re: DrK Savage Tide Reboot OOC
Ooh, spiders. Fortitude-vs-not-a-spell is Kona's worst save by far. He is going to take a few minutes of meditation to shuffle some maneuvers around. I've marked it on his sheet.
Semper ludens.

I've changed Kona's Candle Magic. Allies within 15' can now move 5', no AoA, as a swift action,

Re: DrK Savage Tide Reboot OOC
Yeah, Grimgor has some bonuses to AC, Ref save and AC right now, but that’ll change on his turn.
Also, allies w/in 10’ get +3 AC and +2 Will saves [morale]Life is ... life. As always bot/cut as necessary.

Re: DrK Savage Tide Reboot OOC
You ain’t lying. Especially for sir stubby legs! Fortunately, Grimgor is in the best stance for this attack and he’ll activate his cloister Enduring Shell to add his shield bonus to the save.
Ref vs DC21 - (1d20+10)[25] (Whew!)
Depending on results, I could advance and try to lock the beastie down. Or would folks prefer we let it advance closer to us?Last edited by Starbin; 2021-08-16 at 08:39 AM.

Re: DrK Savage Tide Reboot OOC
Attempting some knowledge checks to identify creature while I wait for the answer to my question.
Knowledge (Arcana): (1d20+4)[18]
Knowledge (Planes): (1d20+4)[24]
Knowledge (Religion): (1d20+4)[21]
Also, does the area has any cover other than greenery?

Re: DrK Savage Tide Reboot OOC
It’s on the same level as you, just running down a stream towards you where you are at the edge of the jungle (like a T junction)
Cover here is either off the edge of the cliff via flight or the trees
Know (Nature) is relevant but DC18 just says “some sort of giant hairy tarantula”Thanks to Emperor Ing for the nice Avatar

Re: DrK Savage Tide Reboot OOC
Bolded bit is confusing. I interpreted that as our characters having higher ground over the spider.
Our characters' positions are confusing as well to me. Let me see if I get this right. Our characters climbed up the cliff slope on ropes that Kona hurl down to the 20x20 ft clearing just before the forest. Everything else is undergrowth. They can see a giant spider closing on them; its legs on each side of the bank of the river. The stream/river runs to and pours over the cliff is not off the edge of the clear ground the party is standing on but another cliff edge covered in undergrowth.Last edited by Yas392; 2021-08-19 at 06:54 AM.

Re: DrK Savage Tide Reboot OOC
I had a similar issue the first couple of times I read the description. The way I read it now with DrK's extra explanation below, we climbed up to the cliff which has a stretch of cleared space between the edge and the jungle. We came upon an inland stream that is coming from the jungle to the edge of the cliff. When we looked down the stream - not from height, but like 'looking down a corridor' - we saw the boat and the spider. The path along the edge of the cliff is clear, but all the jungle is difficult terrain. It sounds like the clear path running along the edge of the cliff is at least 20' wide at this point ... however, it may vary further along.
I initially presumed the spider was 100' from us, and that we were probably 5 to 10' away from the edge of the jungle ... since it would be crazy to think we were walking the very edge of the cliff But that being said, DrK may have imagined we were at the very edge of the jungle peering at the spider 100' feet away. The real question from my perspective is how far away from the edge of the jungle we were to start. That will drive if we can 5' step forward, or how far back we were.
As an aside, I think the only way the cliff provides cover is if you lowered yourself partially down and attacked from there. Or you can fly above the trees and get some cover / concealment, I'm guessing. Or move closer to the trees and away from the stream so you're using the jungle as cover/concealment.
Hope that helps. I'm sure DrK will confirm or correct as necessaryLife is ... life. As always bot/cut as necessary.

Re: DrK Savage Tide Reboot OOC
As Starbin's description, but I think the boat was the spider's body.
