Centipede Swarm attacks Illufaus

Bite: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (10) + 3 = 13
Damage: 4d4 ⇒ (1, 3, 2, 4) = 10 piercing damage.

Uruk? Still with us?

Actually we are waiting on Uruk and Perdita to post up. Probably was just the weekend and they will post up today.

You'll probably have to cover for me this weekend. Lots of D&D and football will take roughly ninety-twelve percent of my time.

Well, Perdita did show this. Although I guess the weekend is technically over now, so their posts should be coming up soon.

Please bot me for another day or so -- CRAZY busy finishing up the financial year!

Why is Perdita not leveled up to level 2 with everyone else?

Centipede Swarm attacks Illufaus

Bite: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14
Damage: 2d4 ⇒ (2, 1) = 3 piercing damage.

still grossly busy with end-of-year / beginning-of-new-year stuff but trying to keep up

As a note to all my games: MY family is on vacation starting the weekend before the 4th of July through the following weekend of July 9/10. I will have intermittent internet access but our schedule is a bit up in the air. I will try to post when I can but if I am quiet for some or all of this period please know I will be back. I don't intend on radio silence but stranger things have happened.)

DM, don't forget, if these are Undead (which I'm assuming they are, due to the bite), they'll need to make a save to attack Illufaus.

Oh and I had no choice but to use Perdita's first level stats as she still has not leveled up to 2nd yet.

Perdita and Uruk?

You are both up in initiative.

I'm not sure what I add to my roll.

Hopefully I'll survive.

And I swear I'll find time to level up this Sunday -- assuming I survive.

Sorry getting back on the grid had been a huge issue, I should be able to catch up tonight or in the am

Let's try not to die again ;)

I love that plan! I 'm happy to be a part of it!

Would it be possible to roll Perdita's death save for her? There is only a 5% chance of her actually being able to do anything else, and it is a single, unmodified roll.

Or, maybe add an Inspiration Point to it for an extra d6?....

Starting tomorrow, I'm going to be gone about a week. Please make Illufaus's death saves for him.

Thanks for the heads up Illufaus. We shall see you upon your return.

So,.... is this quickly turning to a TPK?

Am I dead?

So,.... is this quickly turning to a TPK?

Am I dead?

It is going poorly, but right now everyone has almost stopped posting, waiting on Hack to post up so we can see what happens this round.

Speaking for myself and just guessing about the others -- I'm really into the game and hoping for the best, just a little turtled from the combats so far.

Sorry - missed that I was up.

I want to keep playing but I have two thoughts:

1. I am going to make a new character, Uruk isn't working in a couple diferent ways and I shudder to think what other maleformity he will suffer from.

2. Im hoping that others are on board and we can get the rate back up? I am guilty for sure but I want to come back with some vigor...

I would like to continue with my same character, and any new afflictions he may suffer as a result of the mist.

Oh, I definitely want to continue. Though I'm not pleased with the how of Perdita Imogen's death, the effect seems to go perfectly for my image of her character.

I mean, her mother was a twisted and evil Dryad who captured and raped many men in the Moonwood until Perdita's father managed to escape with the babe. So she already has the blood of an evil Fey in her veins. Perdita has half thought the whole time that it was her mother, along with other evil Fey, who whisked her (and everyone near her) away with the Mists.

So coming back with a Curse fits well with her -- my concept of her.

And I really want to continue playing her.

.

Ultimately, it was my fault that I hadn't leveled her up to second and so she still had her first level HP. It's not easy for me to get a hold of the WotC books for leveling and each chance I got I simply forgot.

I will try to pick up the pace as well. I did get somewhat burned out from PbP for a while, and I felt that the search of the Death House was taking too long -- "I move 30' to the next room." .... "I move 30' to the room after that." -- for days and days on end.

But I really want to continue and will make an effort to post not just when a question comes up but also just to try to move the game forward.

Please level up your character ASAP.

Let me know when the new character is complete and I will bring them into the game.

So,.... go to level two even though I died? I was unsure because in the Campaign Info it says we lose a level when we die.

So you know PErdita there is this:

http://www.5esrd.com/ I think SOME options are missing but a lot of what you need for basic reference is there if the books are a challenge.

@ ASmodeus I hope to have him or her up by the end of the day.

Was variant human allowed? I don;t see anything expressly against it in the original recruitment but I figure its better to ask?

Currently working at cleric of Torm (War). Classic heavy armor caster of god. If I can take the feat at one with the human variant then I will probably grab the Sentinel feat. If not then I will be a bit more beefed up I guess.

Ha ha did I say cleric? I meant monk. I never got to play with him much and I think he will feel more satisfying for me to play...if he lives long enough he will use a FR school of the Sun Souls to add some fun ranges options to the mix.

Let me know if this works.
