Dretches

Among the smallest, dumbest, weakest demons on record. They are about four feet of flab, muscle, and claws destined to be pushed around and used as minions until they die or evolve into a stronger demon. They are born of the souls of evil mortals too lazy or weak to actually do any meaningful dam...

Slayer of a Thousand Men

Curtis barely even noticed, but he killed a sentient creature. That ghoul went down to a Ray of Frost from Emrys. He will be justifiably surprised to find out that counted. So, what did he get?

Conjured Puppet: Grants the ability to summon a puppet minion. The puppet will take his fu...

How do you solve a problem like Sosima?

I mean obviously we are going to ally with her to finish our missions on the island, and obviously autopilot will gaslight her as much as necessary, but what else are we doing with her?

Add her to the party, at least temporarily, swapping out Rosie. This will make her far more...

Chapter 42: Well at Least We Found Sosima

In which Curtis is scared of free real estate

Cog curls up onto a ball during his first fight

And Emrys earns an achievement without even noticing.

What’s the plan?

We have four people missing, and most likely about to get ritually sacrificed to some kind of giant monster if Rowe is to be believed. We’ve got a whole island to search, but it’s probably small enough to walk across in a day. What’s the plan?

Creep along the coastline and try...

Chapter 41b: Sosima

In which Sosima reads a book, freshens up to meet guests, and avoids an awkward social encounter.

Chapter 41: Well at Least Nobody Died

In which a confused crab is assaulted,

Rowe shoots everyone including Emrys,

And Plugg agrees with Emrys with zero persuasion necessary

https://docs.go...

Chapter 40: Well at Least I Got Sleep

In which Curtis experiences the cold gaze of the void,

Emrys demonstrates the value of remembering your spells,

and an angry cat yells at a cloud.

Cog: level 3

Who knows how long the gym bro will be in the party, but we now have a bulky brawler for the front lines. Don’t tease him about the low wisdom; there’s a reason he’s not a cleric.

Mister Cogward

Both as a devout pharasmite and as a spy, Cog favors daggers as his weapons of choice. So, how does he make a typically dexterity based weapon as a strength based guy?

Fate sealer- Focus on support, setting up ally attacks

Counterplay- wait and strike when the enemy is v...

Rowe Character Sheet

Our little goblin girl has a natural talent for things that go boom, and adores tinkering. She is also quite fond of ships, though that won’t necessarily manifest in talents unless she gets upgraded to a full PC class.

Chapter 39: Well at Least I’ll Have a Chance to Sleep

In which Dierdre experiences a micro aggression,

Curtis eats a very unimpressive lunch, and

Emrys is not impressed.

Chapter 38: Well at least I Found a Good Use for that Amulet

In which Emrys employs his culinary skills, Rowe uses perfect grammar, and Emrys appreciates a colorful pony. 

Salyar

The chef of the Man’s Promise held a very respectable, well paying job for years before Emrys came into his life. He’s not very interested in what a pirate has to say. 

Chapter 37: Well at Least Caulky Had a Good Time

Scored

Our boy Emrys is getting laid, and that means another sexual perk. So, here are his options this time: 

Second level spell known: Shamefully Overdressed (sexual variant)- Touch spell: Target feels an overpowering urge to strip, using one move action per round to theatrically remove a r...

Chapter 36: Well at Least I’m Using my Degree Somewhat

Rowe Build.

Polls say that the goblin girl is getting into the party. 

So, what do we know about Rowe? She has a gun. So, what does this gun toting goblin do when her mind and body are afire with isekai cheat power?

Sniper: focus on big single shots that do ...

Chapter 35: At Least I Made a New Fairy Friend

Technically I think this counts as the start of the second arc, as our boy leaves the Wormwood with no intention of going back. 

Dierdre, Atomie Fencer

Atomies are proud fencers, master swordsmen and women who often serve more powerful fae as sentries or bodyguards. Properly compensated, these fierce warriors are a fine addition to any noble company.
Oh yeah. And they are about 1 foot tall.

Who are we dropping?

There seems to be some interest in recruiting both  Cogward and Rowe, but we only have so many party slots for actual PCs. Who is NOT staying in the party? I repeat, this poll is for voting who is LOSING their party slot. 

The Mutiny

How do we prep for mutiny?

According to Besmara’s code, you don’t pull this shit while you’re at sea. Wait until we are in port (or Plugg gives us clear just cause) to set anything into motion.

The code is really more a set of guidelines. Kill Plugg while at sea...

Chapter 34: At Least I get my Own Room

Sorry, I forgot to tag last chapter. I don’t know if anyone uses those at this time, but it happened. 

Credits for Emrys’s Story

I’ve been writing this long enough that I feel like I should give credit where it’s due.

The adventure path I am adapting starts with this book: https://paizo.com/products/btpy8rcc

Feel free to read ahead...

Chapter 33: Well at Least Hog Lob Paid Off

Taker of a Thousand Ships

The Man’s Promise is doomed, and Emrys will be playing a part in its capture. That is enough for this achievement, and that means one economically focused perk.

What’ll it be?

Leadership Sphere (Followers): Gain 5 bonus skill points which can only be spent on the Diplomacy ski...

Chapter 32: Well at Least I Have a Chance to Prove Myself

Next chapter will be the actual battle, I promise. 

Protean Voidworm

No one knows why all known proteans, the outsiders of raw chaos, have a cohesive snakelike thematic to their forms. Wouldn’t it make more sense if they were formless, or at least wildly inconsistent across species?

The Proteans, for their part, have stated “Well obviously we all look li...

The Mirror

We don’t have it yet (let’s see what the next few chapters bring…) but that mirror is a pretty powerful and very importantly consumable item. He will only be able to use it once without cheesy tactics.

The clone it makes (assuming it survives past 24 hours) is a real person capable of...

Chapter 31: Well at Least my Feat Works

Happy Monday. Got through this chapter faster than some. I promise we will be getting some real action soon. Keep an eye out for broad strokes opinions about how to use the mirror.
