Baldwin the Merciful's - CoT Campaign
Game Master baldwin the merciful

I liberally use NPC and villian avatars to break up who is speaking.

Hope page layout is decent enough now. I have a lot of gold and I saw some banker NPCs. Would there be a bank I could trust with my money? Or should I buy up some gear I want such a Str +2 Masterwork Composite Shortbow when I hit 4th?

Let me know if I need to do anything more.

Hey there! Hope we don't miss Tweaker at the bottom of the pit. Or worse, fall on him. :)

I believe Lucrezia would have a passing aquaintence with Andrea since Andrea has used the Grotto's services for both food and other pleasures. You know she has this huge appitite and often favors Tracy.

A bit before you got caught, Andrea stumbled into the Grotto looking and smelling like she swam in the sewer. She got a room with a hot bath and vanished upstairs. A bit later Tracy got this dazed look and went upstairs to join Andrea for the night.

In case you are wondering, ANdrea has a big stash at their hideout that has various tools and things(Items in stash in her profile) If you want soemthign from it, just ask. She goes shopping for things now and then to add to it.

There is bank that is in Andrea's character sheet, that would be convenient. Its her employer and Orsin banks there.

How do you know he is pit?

I gave Lucrezia a rank in craft so that she could have a hobby.

Lucrezia is rather curious about Andrea. They don't get that many female customers around here.

Then Lucrezia would certainly have seen her, she likes to indulge her cravings.

[b]Of course your both gonna have to prove your worth to the dwarf. He's not very trusting and is. A melee bad ass, he doesn't like thieves (rogues) and believes he can do as good a job. Lucrezia and he should get along fine if she proves capable in a fight.

Duncan's just grumpy...don't mind him. He looks like a giant fur ball when wet. He has issue with Andrea too.

I will say the way the story was building up this is a good logical place to introduce new characters.

If Duncan is Grumpy, where are the 6 other dwarfs?

I thought I was Dandy?

Andrea=Horny
John=Clangy
Shinon=Trigger

If you want a good idea on what Andrea looks like, she is based on Maiden Astraea from Demon's Souls

Now wouldn't it be terrific if you did not have any rope? I mean it's a city adventure why carry 50 ft of hemp or silk rope?

Isn't she the horny, kinky one? Why *wouldn't* she have 50ft of rope. Or at least some manacles....

Manacles without a doubt, masterwork if she was feeling high class. You should not be encouraging her either...it's like feeding the wild animals. Smiling.

A shibari master would be in the Dragon Empires not here in my opinion.

I have rope but HAHAHAHA ILEFT IT BACK AT THE HIDEOUT! *punches self*

As for manacles, high-class demands silk scarves!

Lucrezia took Craft/carving for wood and bone. I will go and get a large bone, carve it into a phallic object and present to Andrea so I can say Lucrezia gave her a boner...

Edit: Oh wait, I forgot I wasn't supposed to encourage her...

Praise Calistria! I have found a fellow sister!

@Andrea:

Well, the other PCs and you better hurry their posting tonight so you rescue her.

I have enough wood sticking into me that I would be much happier just having a nice comfortable bed and some healing and some water and maybe some food and my gear and maybe a few heads of some recent employers on spikes.

Ah o' we have needy player here.

Your gear...that was an illusion like the floor.

Right now Lucrezia doesn't have any specific deity she worships if your looking for a convert.

NO GEAR!!!! oh noes..... Guess going to have to charge these jerks extra for their traps.

Hey, I'm wearing nothing but a man's tunic over here. I'd be happy for some clothes.

Kinda funny that I am actually wearing a guy's shirt right now too. As with most women I steal my husband's t-shirts to sleep in.

We can make you a hat out of the leader of the Bastard's head. Keeps you warm and serves as a handy war trophy.

Lucrezia and Tweaker this is a typical day on the thread all of a sudden there are nearly 100 posts.

We have lots of pointy weapons to give you once you are out of the pit.

Combat sees the most posts, when we are out and about the town it is more leisurly.

It is fine with me. I might not be here immediately for every post but generally check every 30 minutes at most unless in a video game. I have been here most of the time just hitting refresh this evening.

By all means don't hang at the computer...have a life.

Tonight was a good example of how I handle posting during combat and when someone is not around. I tend to skip the action, unless its critical to another character's action, and wait for the person to post when they check in. If it's been a couple rounds, or we need to move the story, I will DMPC like I did with John this evening.

I think I'll survive the posting rate. :)

My biggest offline time will be between midnight and 8am eastern standard time. If anything ever happens between then that is time sensitive just bot me through it.

Oh, I have TV screen above computer screen. I will be playing video games but had pneumonia like sickness for almost 3 weeks till Monday and still weak and coughing. Not doing a lot.

That's the time I'm off too. I tend to answer the posts before work.

I tend to crash around 3 Am or so

So if I'm up late I can just poke at Andrea. :)

Yea. I read, play some video games and putter around while reading the PbPs

I don't sleep well but Andrea takes the cake. Duncan amazes me at times, he is in Australia and he is on all the time. When he is not...he's sleeping.

I get about 6 hours of sleep in the summer a night because I keep waking up sweating even with the fans

I'm up till 3 most evenings and sleep in till 10 or 11 if I can get away with it. Of course, I'm on Pacific time, so my night owl schedule only exacerbates the time difference.

My schedule has lots of differences. Sometimes 36-52 hours of no sleep and times I can sleep over 24 but most times try for 10 if I can. Probably goes with not sleeping for a day or two at other times. I have trouble with keeping steady schedule.

I still don't sleep too well either. But that's probably from spending several years on night shift. Still adjusting back.

So we are a group of hopeless insomniacs. I'm self employed so I have tons of flexibility, it's also why I can post from the office.

I worked for Wrangler jeans for almost 5 years. I worked 5 to 3 am and so slip into that schedule so easily if don't work at it even after more than a decade. Kids being in school during sleeping makes it easier to do as well. I am the home person while wife has career.

Right now I'm doing the stay at home mom thing. Had to quit after hubby enlisted since there was no way I could get night time child care to work and then day time child care to sleep.(night shift was 11pm to 7am) Next month is when I finally get to move out to where he is at.

So, interesting development: I got the job I auditioned for the other day, which means that I'll be spending my weekends singing opera arias at a local Italian restaurant. I'll only be working shifts that last three hours at a time, so while I don't imagine it will have any real significant impact on my posting, I figured it'd be good to keep y'all informed.

Congrats on the opera gig. I'm pretty tone deaf but do I usually get to two a season at our local performing arts center.

We will mangage the posting.

Signing off...
