DM-Camris' SECOND DARKNESS Part 3: The Armageddon Echo (Inactive)

Game Master Camris

Just waiting on some peeps to take their actions.

Posting in a minute

I think we lost some people.

I'm back -- but fighting with the boards, sadly. Will have an action posted as soon as I can.

Well I will be dropping out. It seems the DM is focusing more on other games and areas of the boards. It has been great gaming with everyone and you are awesome roleplayers. Good luck.

My apologies for my lateness. Some medical problems were very distracting from a timely update.

It doesn't look like Liz is returning. Do you feel confident in continuing with four, or do you want to recruit first?

I like having 5, personally.

I'd love to get another Shoanti in, but given the track record, not to mention their current location.. *shrug*

I'm learning that the interplay with the characters is what I look for when I play. Advancing the story while following the plot is something that interests me, while I've noticed in a lot of the games I've played with the exception of a few, that it is the other way around.

I am not opposed to five.

Apologies for delays this week, been dealing with a plague-like flu. Better now.

Interesting group of applications so far.I'm good with 5 as well.

I certainly like the idea of a divine caster.

Anyone have any favorites?

I'm liking Cherry Razarin the tiefling rogue. And given what we're going into someone with a skill for traps is definitely useful.

Zephram can handle traps pretty well -- I think I'd prefer a divine caster.

In that case Cynara, the life Oracle would be a very effective healer that's still useful in combat .

Dotting. I'm on the road at the moment, and will get my profile updated tonight my time (GMT -6).

Rolling for HP:

Swashbuckler level: 1d10 ⇒ 9

5 oracle levels: 5d8 ⇒ (3, 5, 8, 3, 8) = 27

Reroll the 2 3s: 2d8 ⇒ (6, 2) = 8

Reroll the 2: 1d8 ⇒ 4

Reroll the 4: 1d8 ⇒ 4

Reroll the 4: 1d8 ⇒ 7

So, HP before favored class bonuses: 8 + 9 + 5 + 8 + 8 + 6 + 7 + 1/level for CON = 58.

DM C, in the recruitment you specified that one trait needs to be from the campaign. Is that actually the case?

What's the deal with all the rerolls?

The recruitment post said reroll anything less than half plus one.

Ah

I've got Cynara pretty much updated.

Let's have Cynara enter 2 rounds after this fight starts. She's part of an elven strike force that had been ambushed and scattered. Seeing you in a fight, she'll join up because she knows you're sent on important missions and Lady Eviana asked her soldiers to support you wherever possible.

Roger that.

Thanks for your patience; I've been on vacation this past week, and should be back to regular posting again tomorrow.

Will be out of town 'til Monday.

And who IS the team leader?

I guess as last original party member I'll take the role.

You're the smart one, anyway.

Works for me, Zane.

Nakoda definitely doesn't want the role.

Nakoda is going to have to upgrade that armor. A Breastplate is on the shopping list.

I'm going to be traveling from 8/5 to 8/11, and am unlikely to be able to connect.

I'm going to be out travelling the Boston area 'til next week Wed or so.

Enjoy!

As a head's up -- I'll be out of town in a place where I'm not expecting to have any internet access from Friday, Sept 2 until Saturday the 10 (and will likely be unpacking and the like, such that Monday the 12th is probably the safest estimate of when I'll be able to catch up and post).

I'll still be here to play this week, but given the chaos of packing, I wanted to make sure I posted a warning of my absence while I can (though I will try to post a reminder before I go..)

While I'm gone, please feel free to bot Zephram as needed -- he's pretty much all about the studied combat and improved feint. (Especially while mutated)

Just saw this was marked inactive. Sorry to hear that.

It's still showing active on my Campaigns page.

Same here for me.

Weird.

Yeah that is strange.

I apologize for the extended delay. It's hard to get back into the swing of things after time away.

Apologies for poor posting last week. Had a case of food poisoning.

(Peeks out.)
