Saturday Night Pathfinder: Sandpoint Days 3 and 4

A brief report from Crayla:


  • I found out a lot at the local brothel.  The Kujitsu family is an interesting bunch with some dirty laundry.  The old man and wife had a half-elf son (both of them were human).  He was sent to the orphanage; the mother was kept away.  The father later pushed her off a balcony.  They have a duaghter who was a former adventurer and now runs a local inn.  The family made their money locally through glass making.  Also I got the name of the goblin tribe expert.  Man, I wish she were back in town about now.  Sheriff says several more weeks.
  • The drawback of the brothel is now that Kooper visits there all the time.  He is just one vice on top of another.
  • Met up with Mr. Foxglove who paid us a bit for saving him and took us hunting in the Tickwood.  We were able to take down a wild boar and a dire boar fairly easily.  It got us a feast back at the Rusty Dragon.  Foxglove was all over me with complements and free drinks.  The evening got interrupted briefly by old man Kujitsu who came to try to drag his daughter away.  He was drunk and left after she walloped him with a big ladle.
  • We checked the Kujitsu estate out with Pleon's assistance.  I didn't mention the robbery portion of the heist to him.  We got 300 gold thanks to a nice distraction from Kooper.  Pleon got me in nice and invisible.  There were guards about but we made a clean getaway.  I also grabbed some contracts for Pleon to look through -- looking for who knows what?  Follow the money, so Kujitsu is a place to start.
  • We stopped by to visit the sheriff and got paid for our little skeleton job.  100 gp is nothing to sneeze at.
  • We got to go grab a goblin that had holed up in a house.  Pleon worked his voodoo and got him to surrender.  Fairy dust or no, I slapped manacles on him and we took him back to the jail for questioning.  He still has my arrow in his shoulder and I really want it back.  I wonder how much yanking it will take to get him to take me to this 'longshanks' in charge.
  • Once this goblin thing is over, we need to head to the glass makers -- I think Kujitsu probably has his money mostly there.  We've drained the local invisibility magic dry, so I guess I am sneaking on my own from here on out.
  • 4 days gone and I think we've got some time to go.  I was really hoping to get back to the home plane to show off the breach in the guard for the dragon eggs before they hatch.  I'm not sure that is going to happen.

5E Starting Gold and Equipment for Higher Levels

The DMG has a rough recommendation for starting gold and equipment for higher levels, but with my groups running one-shots, we wanted to nail it down to level by level. Here's my DMG-inspired table. Generally I allow equipment to be traded in during character creation for half book value, where applicable. I also, as a GM, offer to make custom magic items for players who can't choose. A list of magical items by rarity can be found here  with stats available in the DMG. I also generally allow players to buy healing potions (2d4+2) for 50gp and greater healing potions for 250gp (4d4+4). PHB items are available at book cost at creation. I do not allow other equipment to be purchased except in game. This is generally based off the "high magic" campaign. Level Starting Gold Starting Equipment / Magic Items 1 - 160gp  OR Standard starting equipment 2 210gp Standard starting equipment 3 285gp Standard starting equipment 4 365gp Standard sta

An Analysis of Tasha's Caldron of Everything: Spells

 I am going to be evaluating "Tasha's Cauldron of Everything" for incorporation into my own games. I figured I would go ahead and record this analysis on my blog here so other folks can follow along and glean some useful information from the time I spent. I tried to find an in-depth analysis elsewhere, but at this time none so detailed as this seems to be available. You will not find any of the text in its entirety in this blog. I will be referencing the first printing of the book, so please refer to that as you read along. There are no released errata for the book at the time of writing, although there are errata from other books that affect some of this content. There are 21 spells in Tasha's Cauldron of Everything. This includes Booming Blade, Green-Flame Blade, Lightning Lure, and Sword Burst cantrips that were originally published in Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide. There are 9 spells that allow you to summon creatures of various types. Three spells are notabl

GM Tip: Changing the Effective Font Size in Roll20

I've seen this complaint a few times in roll 20:  can't adjust the font in the chat window.  Unfortunately, they haven't added controls for this yet, at least not at the level of account I have.  For me the font is just too big, but I know for a lot of people it is too small. I am using chrome to do this, but I am sure it will work in other browsers. The method basically allows to increase/decrease the size of the font/controls by about a factor of 2 easily. To increase the effective font size, zoom in with the browser (ctrl-plus), and reduce the zoom on the map, until it is back to the size you want. To decrease the effective font size, zoom out with the browser (ctrl-minus), and increase the zoom on the map until its back to the size you want. The main limit of this is the limited range of the map zoom, which really limited me to fonts doubling to halving in size. Default size with chat font Decrease browser zoom and increase map zoom to reduce font e
