Finding the Spark (Pathfinder 1E Quest)

Reader mode
Oh, cool, surprise bonus feat! It's not one I would have deliberately selected, but that doesn't mean we won't find a use for it at some point.

And with that said, despite wanting to talk to Gorok and Iolda (really hoping she ends up joining the party), I think we need to talk to Mina about this latest development. It was weird in a couple ways, from Lorek's ominous phrasing and implied foreknowledge to the potion and it's unexpected side-effects.

[X] Mina about all the ominous talk and the strange potion

"Us goblins don't live long with tribe, away from tribe even less," your friend points out, fluttering his large ears, not all that troubled by the proclamation.

"We are together," Gorok cuts in. "Tribe of four isn't usually that much, depends which four."

Ah, great teambuilding moment, DP. :)

Also I will note here you are not playing a diplomatic character, there is a reason Kori feels less smooth than Viserys.

That's a feature, not a bug, IMO. Not that Diplomacy necessarily makes things easy, per se, but it sure does feel like it sometimes. Playing this differently than previous quests is fun, not only because it's new but also because it makes us work harder at some things we've just been able to breeze past before. It's also kinda liberating in that we don't always have to worry about being diplomatic.
 
@DragonParadox, I'm glad you mentioned the Gloom Blade in this update. I forgot we had it. :oops:

I need to add that to Kori's sheet when I get a chance, along with Cob's new dagger and goggles. If I don't have time this evening, I'll try to get to it in the morning before work.

Mina with a bonus feat! Awesome!

Best to check to see how she is doing after blindness scare too.
 
Here are the updated sheets, @DragonParadox. I added the Gloom Blade for Kori, the Bane Dagger and spectacles for Cob (and included the Survival bonus to Tracking in Gorok's sheet for when that's relevant), and added Mina's new bonus feat.

Thank you for your work with this. If I ever start a quest (and I have ideas but not time), I am definitely going to ask you for some help with the mechanics.

I think we should buy Mina a light crossbow before we leave Cauldron. Not because she needs a new ranged weapon, but because of her new feat; Abeyance.

She can use that feat to shut down all of the Spell-like Abilities of any enemy she has damaged with a metal weapon since the previous round. If they fail a Will save, they lose their SLAs for 1 minute. That's a really solid ability for a low level Witch with limited spell slots, and it doesn't even have a short range limit like most other Hexes.

A ton of enemies are mostly dangerous because of their SLAs, like the Lich we just fought that Blinded Mina. Almost all the trouble we had with it stem directly from its SLAs, from Dispel magic to Blindness.

Arc 3 Post 41: Whisper of a Tale
  • Threadmarks
    • Whisper of a Tale ​

    3rd of Rova 4707 A.R. (Absalom Reckoning)

    As you approach Mina by the slightly too bright flame of the resting fire tucked in an alcove among the stalagmites you notice her put away an uneven slate with four lines of chalk on it. Curious, you ask her what she is about.

    "Measuring time as the sun crosses the sky, we should not be more than four or five days from our destination," she answers.

    "Are these halls so unpleasant to tread then?" you make a jest of it, or at least you hope it comes out that way. The attempt still feels strange on your lips, like biting into a prickle-pod and waiting for the sting of a fruit plucked too soon.

    "No, it's just..." she tips her head a little to the side, judging your expression, then smiles. "I find it easier to measure the flow of time that way, sleeping and waking, eating and watching, they all blur together otherwise."

    Truth be told you had never considered that, but having a enormous ball of eye-searing flame in the sky would make telling time a brutally direct process, especially for those who shun the dark and seek ever its light. Not to mention poor Mina lost all light for a while there. Blindness is hardly unknown among the People, particularly common among those who have borne witness to too many a dying light , honored and pitted all at once, but to have that snatched away at the at the will of some foul dead thing must be worse by far.

    Mina's mind however is elsewhere. "I wonder if my mother knew something, when she left me to the priestesses to raise, or if she just took one look into my eyes and..."

    "How old were you?" you interrupt, seeking shelter in practicalities from a conversation you had sought out and now do not know what to do with, like the foolish fisherman who had caught a Flash Eel.

    "I was a babe in arms," she shrugs. "Younger than him," she motions at Click.

    "I was trying to work something out. It takes us half a season to open our eyes, it is the same for your folk, and you were very young your mother can't have seen your eyes at all. Maybe she had some other reason to leave you at the temple-complex."

    "Babies, human babies that is, open their eyes minutes after birth. They can't focus very well, but they do try to look around," she explains, her expression growing wistful. "Though really who knows when I opened my eyes."

    Pepper half-meows-half-sneezes from where he had settled by the fire.

    "He said you're slow," his mistress translates helpfully. "He also thinks humans are too hasty."

    "Oh, what's just right then?" you ask, glancing in the direction of the familiar who had already closed his eyes.

    "Why somewhere between two days and two weeks like cats do it, of course," your friend laughs.

    "Of course," you nod sagely. The more time you spend with Mina and her furry companion the more you wonder if your odd lonely magic could ever bind a something, someone, like him, or if a twisting shadow is close enough company.

    "When I first called Pepper back I thought maybe I was blessed by Desna, you know?" Your friend sighs, voice lowering perhaps so as not to be heard by the halflings trying trail bread nearby for some reason. "Now I'm not so sure. Maybe some small black crumb of the Old Burden..."

    "Old what?" You cut in again, thankfully she does not seem to mind.

    "It's what the common folk, especially in Barstoi, call the the foulness left over from the days to the Whispering Tyrant." By now her voice had itself dropped to less than a whisper, a thing more read upon the lips than spoken.

    "When we met those Stone Gobblers you called them servants of Zura 'teeth of the Tyrant's Guard'. I'm guessing it is the same one?"

    "Aye, even his gravestone crushes Ustalav and not all the learned men of Lepidstadt can explain it, nor can the most saintly of mendicant priests do more than banish it from among the people into the howling wastes to grow fat on the unwary and try again. After all, what fear do those who would defy the Lady of the Grave have of us mere mortals?"

    You fall silent a moment then into the crackle of flames you offer: "I see no touch of death magic on you."

    "There are other magics, strange and perilous, other lieutenants of the Tyrant, not so easily marked or so the tales tell. Perhaps it is best that I not return to Ustalav until I know... until I know for sure what I am."

    No shallow shaft to dig that one, you think. Who can truly say they know what they are, much less with any certainty?

    What do you counsel?

    [] The world is wide, below and above, if Mina wants to stay away from the land of her birth there's certainly plenty of room to do so

    [] All you can judge what you have seen with your own eyes and Mina could not have been less a burden, she should not let the ramblings of some old bat-eater trouble her

    [] Write in


    Darklands Dictionary
    Flash Eel - Dire Electric Eel, due to a combination of their stealth and their ability to shock the unwary few of the Caligini dare to hunt them and fewer still survive
    Prickle-Pods - The fruit of a carnivorous black briar plant, covered in just as many thorns as the rest of the plant for the span of its long maturation the thorns all fall off when the fruit is ripe leading to a rush to various Nar Voth denizens to pick the plants clean during the early Season of Rushing Waters

    OOC: Well that was a doozy, enjoy.

    • Oh, what a wonderful chapter. I wnna do a write in, but I guess that I have to think a little about it. Something both sweet and awkward from Kori would be great.
     
    Poor Mina. Sucks to doubt and even fear yourself like that.

    [X] All you can judge what you have seen with your own eyes and Mina could not have been less a burden, she should not let the ramblings of some old bat-eater trouble her
    -[X] She is a friend first and foremost, and you are sure nothing awful would try so hard to help others
     
    I'm glad we voted to talk to Mina as quickly as we did. Stewing over these insecurities wouldn't have done her any good.

    I think a combination of both default options is the way to go here. Neither is bad on its own, but together they get the message across properly, IMO.

    [X] The world is wide, below and above. If Mina wants to stay away from the land of her birth, there's certainly plenty of room to do so.
    -[X] That being said, all you can judge is what you have seen with your own eyes, and Mina could not have been less a burden. She should not let the ramblings of some old bat-eater trouble her.
     
    A Witch in Pathfinder... is it the same as a Warlock, in that the individual's power comes from an otherworldly patron?

    What does it take to know for sure what she is? Come to think about it, how does Pepper not know it?

    Pepper does not seem to know from what Kori sees, as for if Mina has a patron... well she has a familiar and her magic seems to be linked to him, that is about as far as your present arcane knowledge goes.
     
    We still don't know Click's nature and ansestry, right? But we are bound to find someone to tell us, if only so we could entrust him to other people. Maybe they will have enough expertise to do the same for Mina?
