Fishery Finale

General Summary

Editor's Note: Mommy has a headache so buckle up kiddos...   They fight far too many zombombbizzles and one skeleton. Luke and Astara almost die. The kobolds beg them not to use lethal force in the fight against Zolgryn.   The party stands before the leader of the kobold's and her big mushroom hat. Lady Zolgryn is young and angry. Vamir challenges her to a duel with the party as his champions. The party says "hold the fuck up! Let's talk this out." Zolgryn keeps trying to instigate a fight and threatens to feed them to the ka'kulyah. She also mocks Luke for being short.   Rezog sees Zolgryn for what she really is: a scared teenager thrust into a position of power and trying to put up a strong face for the kobold band. He tells her she can be vulnerable and accept their help or she can keep being 'strong' and wind up dead. She agrees to meet with Luke's friend tomorrow night so long as the party and Vamir go with her.   Meanwhile the gunshot Luke fired as an intimidation tactic awoke something with in the pit in the room, the most terrifying of all the gods' creations- a bard! Specifically the bard Astara and Luke were looking for, Ezra.

Notes

The Wonderful World of Shields!

  Shields work differently in Pathfinder than they do in 5e. Instead of a shield granting a static bonus to AC as soon as it's added to your equipment sheet, the player needs to be more active in their own defense.   In order to gain the benefits of one's shield one must use the Raise Shield action on their turn. Until the start of the character's next turn they get the bonus to AC. They also take a penalty to their speed while the shield is raised. This adds a more tactical choice to shield use. Is a temporary +2 to AC more important this round than movement, picking something up, or making an extra attack?   Each shield also lists a Hardness Value and HP. These statistics are used with the Shield Block feat. While the shield is raised one can reduce damage from a physical attack by the Hardness of the shield. The remaining damage is then taken by the shield and the player. If the damage exceeds the shield's Broken Threshold then its high time to get a new one. Sorry.
