Welp, I died. Happy gaming, y'all- was fun while it lasted.
GM, please remove me from the active characters tab, if you will.
mdt |
If you want to quit the game, then fine, I'll remove you...
I'm not sure how you died though, considering you took 12 subdual while at 0, which turned into 12hp out of 20, leaving you 18 more before you die.
*sigh*
Maybe I should just cancel the game if people are going to act like this..

I am hopeful it is just a misunderstanding? This combat has been going for a while with the timing issues so some of the details might be muddled...besides there is still Zamu, me, Naravash and Kimiko? Hopeflly enough to make the effort worthwhile...
Lingfeng Shangguan |
Whoa, sorry, didn't mean to upset you. I must have missed that I was taking subdual damage. My bad.
Also I probably could have worded that better. Serves me right for trying to post from my phone before work.
Lingfeng Shangguan |
Understandable. Good news is, I'm not dead (yet)!
Xú Yanyeeku |
Nah I honestly think if they are going through all this work to subdue us its so they can spit roast us later. When we go its gonna be GLORIOUS!
Actually Zamu seems to be cutting them down pretty well. I am mostly just running around, lol.
Gavmania |
Lol, the more you run around, the more chance Zamu has to do his thing. Besides, Zen archers are built for combat, and excel at ranged combat. If this were a melee, I would be taking hits with the rest of you and quite likely to be on the floor with bolas wrapped around me.
Next time it would be better to keep a bigger proportion of our force hidden, or find a better way in.
Gavmania |
So, combat over - what next? we have a live oni going to waken soon, we can use a coup de grace and kill her or try and hold her somehow, but we need to decide very soon. I am all for trying to get info on what to expect in the fortress, which would mean binding her somehow. Trying to tie her up would mean she would wake up, do we have a better means of binding her?
Xú Yanyeeku |
I got rope! But you may not want me to be the one to tie it up...
Xú Yanyeeku |
Sorta brutal but I think that would be a good call.
Xú Yanyeeku |
Oooh Marne-la-Vallée non?
Have fun.
mdt |
Strict RAW, no.
I've always allowed it, as long as you are proficient with a weapon that does subdual by default (IE:Sap). Most people can't do it with a fist, even with the auto crit (lack of damage)
Kimiko |
We could all stand over her and on the count of 3, everyone punch at once, lol
Kimiko |
I'm not sure which village she's talking about and I don't recall the condition of it... can you give us a link to that time in the game and I'll gladly answer her.
mdt |
The only village you've been to in the Yomi Lands was the one that started at this link...
Kimiko |
thanks for the reference/link... and that would make sense, though I'm not sure the character would go willingly if the player were still here, lol
Gavmania |
OK, do we have a plan of action this time? I would suggest we scout ahead; Zamu is quite happy to do that; he can run or fight as need be. However he does not have darkvision; only low-light vision. that means he will need to have a light source which would prevent him from sneaking effectively.
Anyone else?
Xú Yanyeeku |
Unless Naravash wants to go ahead of us a decent pace I think we have to accept the group bumbling forward together...
mdt |
Map updated, perception checks please.
Also, on an unrelated note. Since we lost a player, do you want me to contact the backups and see if anyone wants to join, or continue with the 5 players?
Kimiko |
perc: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (17) + 10 = 27
Another player would be fun, but I'm okay with 5 too if the other players want to keep it that way.
Kimiko |
oh sorry... i just rolled where you asked for it without thinking... I'll go reroll
Kimiko |
Will be at Gamex this weekend (Fri-Mon)... will check in as and when I can, but no guarantees - depends on hotel wifi and charging possibilities... Bot me as necessary to keep the pace of the game up, don't want to slow things down.
Xú Yanyeeku |
Ithink we should do:
Ling-Avernus-Kimiko-Zamu-Xu
Lingfeng Shangguan |
Ling doesn't actually realize that she's squishy, and her burny burny burn strategy requires her to be near the front, so I'm (mostly) okay with leading the way. Ikuzo!
mdt |
Ling stomps off, annoyed apparently, down the hallway, her boot steps ringing up and down the unlit passage.
The dancing light dances ahead, alerting any watchers that someone with magical spells is nearby.
Ling goes forward, with the rest of the party following along in perfect chain lightning or fireball formation.
LOL, sorry, couldn't resist
Ling stops when she gets close to the door. The door is made of stone and seems to be in good shape with large yellowish bronze hinges holding it up.
Lingfeng Shangguan |
Lulz! It happens. Ling is apparently annoyed because she has, it seems, turned into a complete idiot over the last few months. ;)

Sorry I haven't been posting, I've been working 50+ hours a week, plus travel, plus being exhausted and/or sick on the weekends from overworking.
Things should start to return to normal again next week.
