    Oghash is not a stealth-focused PC, so she would want to re-kill undead. Just my 2 cp.

    So I misunderstood and it took me a few re-reads to follow your question.

    I also vote for the undead door. As I understand it, that one was behind a hidden door (which was obviously not labeled) already? The *other* door is the "secrecy is greatest ally" door, right?

    Yes that is correct. It would appear that he undead door was hidden behind the secret door and the secrecy was the other door in plain sight

    Swing and a miss for me it seems. Hopefully somebody else can put it down before it causes any more damage.

    Pretty sure Oghash obliterated her target with how much damage she did, not sure what Stvari is attacking.

    Busy not paying enough attention. Stvari can close to help Sarris instead.

    Lol, it's fine, I just had this image of a dwarf smashing into random meat pulp. I forget if it was this game or a different one, but I mixed up two different campaigns, which resulted in odd reactions.

    Well, Sarris is impatient and would most likely just stab the guy in this situation. However, this trial has caused considerable harm to party, so he is reticent to take point.

    If that's the case we might as well go into Initiative and see who's still swinging.

    See, I'm hesitant because Oghash is at single-digit HPs. She will go all-out, for probably one round, before getting cut down unless someone can con this guy into healing her first...

    You mentioned level 3 on Discord. I started the process, and wanted to verify that we're good to level up before I make all the changes.

    Also for all Level 3

    Once this scene is complete I shall post with a training montage as the cardinal gives you some additional training. You may also then all choose an additional trait from the following list.
    Please let me know what you are selecting at level 3 along with any other exciting level up activities....

    “Asmodeus is with you.” Adrastus Thorn indoctrinates you into the deeper mysteries of worshiping the Prince of Hell. Whenever you channel energy, you gain a +1 trait bonus to the save DC of your channeled energy.

    “Deception is a tool. Master it.” Adrastus Thorn teaches you the subtle arts of deception and how to sense when they are being used against you. You gain a +1 trait bonus to Bluff and Sense Motive.

    “Discover what is real and what is illusion.” Adrastus has taught you to see through deceptions and to never lie to yourself. You gain a +2 trait bonus on saving throws against illusions.

    “Fear nothing save our dread lord.” Adrastus Thorn has shown you fear and taught you to master it within yourself. You gain a +2 trait bonus on saving throws against fear effects.

    “Focus strengthens your will.” Adrastus Thorn drills you on ways to avoid magic that seek to take control of your mind and divert you from your mission. You gain a +2 trait bonus on saving throws against charm and compulsion effects.

    “Let us perfect your favorite spell” Adrastus Thorn drills you again and again in the use of one particular spell. Pick one spell. This spell’s effects manifest at +1 caster level.

    “Quiet as death” The Cardinal trained in the arts of being silent and stealthy. You gain a +2 trait bonus to Stealth checks.

    “Strike first, strike ruthlessly and thus be victorious” Cardinal Thorn has taught you never to shirk or hesitate in a combat. You gain a +2 trait bonus on Initiative checks.

    “Wear your armor like a second skin.” You have drilled extensively in wearing armor in combat. When you wear armor of any sort, reduce that suit’s armor check penalty by 1 to a minimum check penalty of 0.

    “You shall be my angel slayer.” Adrastus thorn spends exhausting amounts of time teaching you about good celestials, their strengths and weaknesses. You gain a +2 trait bonus on Knowledge (planes) checks about good-aligned celestials and receive a +1 trait bonus to any damage roll you make against them.


    EDIT:

    ALso, Starbin has reached out and let me know due to some real life stuff he won't be continuing in the game. This means we are down to 4, the bloodrager, the monk, the cavalier and the inquistitor. Are you happy as a 4-some or would you like to add 1-2 more players or a DM-NPC into the mix?

    Rolling hit die (1d10+3)[9]

    Edit: Since trait bonuses don't stack, taking the +2 saves vs Illusions, otherwise the buff to initiative would have been preferable.

    I will be leveling up Oghash today. Not yet sure on the additional trait, but I will not it when done.

    Re: loosing Starbin - that is unfortunate! I think we will really need some spellcasting support. Having done the DM-PC thing before, I don't recommend it. I am not sure who to recommend as an arcane caster, but I do think we should find at least one additional player, potentially two. An additional PC with healing capabilities would be welcome too.

    All of these sounds good for Oghash, but for very different reasons. Do any of the other Players have recommendations?

    Defensively, I can see the saving throw bonuses to be excellent - Oghash's weakest save is actually Reflex, but Will is only one point better. As she levels up and becomes more dangerous, keeping her properly under control will become pretty important...

    Improving the Armor Check Penalty is sort of an in-between option - a little of defense and offense, depending on the circumstances of a skill check. Right now her ACP is -4, a -3 is significantly better, but not enough to make her a sneaky-sneak...

    More damage is always good for someone like Oghash. The skill bonus won't help at all, cause I don't intend to make her intellectual on any level, but the +1 to damage vs good outsiders could be great in this campaign.
