Yeah, remember, we are here to give a shakedown of the rules. I expect no metagaming posts in this thread. :)
ok..here is the alias for Mordechai
FYI, I am not so much of a singing bard, as a story telling bard. I like to embellish the story a bit. The orc we defeated, was an 2 dozen OGRE's, That kind of thing.
Checking in.
I can almost hear the hollywood accent.
lol. I'm doing my best, but I think his brogue will fluctuate, especially since he's fairly deep in his cups atm.
Red Five, checking in.
I'm going to cut across their axis and try to draw their fire!
-- Sorry, couldn't resist.
I can hold it! no, I'm alright! BWAAAAAA *BOOM*
[action=orc ferocity]eats porkins, leaves chips[/action]
Wow, that's roleplaying on the Game play side. I hope everyone who is on these boards are taking notes! :)
That is real drama over there, PCs getting offended and stating it, its awesome!
I'm about to take a skill point in sewing and skin this barbarian for my hide armor!!!! ;)
Saints preserve us! A heathen!
My goal for brian personality wise is to be the kinda person who has a really strong love of life. The crusades were not exactly kind to him, as you can imagine.
Unaligned and using sentient beings for armor!! Who would dare oppose us!
most sentient beings, if I had to guess.
Kingdom of Heaven was a huge inspiration for this character. So I hope that's coming out.
No one will ever love me :(
Mine was Predator 2
[/jokes]
I probably should have asked before i posted... is there orc/elf racial tension in this setting? Didn't mean to gloss over that,
Yes. There is, but not as strong as dwarf vs. orcs. But the elves have long memories, and usually it's they that act snooty around the orcs.
We're still missing 2 people no?
Still.
I suppose we should wait for them, then. At least til post work hours on the West Coast, probably. :P
Also before I forget:
A piece of crystal that faintly glows in the moonlight
Ooh, we get a trinket?
A rank insignia from a lost legionnaire
Ooh, we get a trinket?
1d100-20
A rank insignia from a lost legionnaire
Or in your case, an insignia you got from slaying one of Salah al Din's saracens.
Ya, I have a mosaic tile that I took from a gutted mosque...
a small packet filled with pink dust
Weird...wonder what that might be??? Love dust for Rebecca...hmmmmm...lol
Wow, I missed the launch completely, I'll work hard at getting all my homework done, read up on the game thread, and try to join in today.
I found out that there are two loxleys in England. One in Yorkshire and the other in Wiltshire. Robin of Locksley might not be in Northern England, but in southern England in Wiltshire.
Are we to follow a Robin NPC eventually or is one of the party members going to fill that role?
Actually, no. You're rping in Ivanhoe and taking Ivanhoe's role. I'm just spreading your first few adventures out so you can participate in the tournament and joust (and King Richard comes in around 1194.)
Although one of you could become a robin hood.
Who are we missing in the gamethread, just Artegallio?
Yes. He's promised to post when he can.
DM EltonJ - can I have your permission to work on a new background? I would like to work out a "Farmer" background
Sure.
Should we be rowing or something?
xIt's a sail boat, not to worry. :)
Wait...are they French or English sailors, cause, you know, that makes a huge difference kids, huge difference
English. :)
I will be off line for the next week. I’m sorry if that makes it seem like I have left all of you in the lurch. If I can get to a computer on Sunday or Monday, I will try to update if I can
OMG THOSE ROLLS...
This elven ship is cursed!
:)
"I asked him for a railing, and you know what he said? he said we'd lean on it." "That son of a *****. I almost fell off of there last week!"
I'm still around. I assume I can't really hear what's going on on deck and have no idea the ship is cutting down our party.
Fortunately, in 5E, the average DC seems to be 8.
Yes.
Guys, apparently, a group of historians has traced the history of Britain and I have to rewrite my British histories. :)
Geoffrey of Monmouth was pretty inaccurate. A great storyteller, but a bad historian. :(
Time to award Inspiration.
You all get inspiration, this time, but I'll be taking a strong look at how you "RP" from now on to award inspiration in the future. Since this is a PnP game, the more detail you put into your posts on describing your character's emotions and actions, I'll be more inclined to award Inspiration.
