Gob Smash One

Game Master Tacticslion

They be goblins, you be food... why are they so weird, dude?

That's what the W.D.G.F.F. (Western Duchy Goblin Fighting Force) first Reconnaissance and Strike Crew, aka "Gob Smash One" (that's you) have been sent to find out, in the barren mana wastes beyond the edge of the Duchy near the border of Geb in an ancient abandoned outpost called Hightower...

So I just spent last night trawling the last three pages for the posts that I was unaware Schnorzel could understand (everything said by Rainbow husk, much of what is said by nuglet)
Along with this the super secret spoilers that nobody but Schnorzel is alllowed to know about.
Oh and the text wall Tacticslion shot at me when I started on this venture and decided to run Schnorzel rather than making a character appear in the middle of all this.

So.. Much.. information.
Lots of plot lines that sound like they go somewhere but little to verify that is where they are going, important information that I had hoped to use logical reasoning to have Schnorzel leap to for an A-ha moment for the group but that didn't wanna work.
Read text wall, considered text wall, brain went splort

Though I am pretty sure we are headed into a fight with

Super secret revelations!:
Hahahaha, what you think I'm going to give up my crackpot theories halfway through cooking? Crackpots like their crockpot cousins work by stewing in ones own juices for long periods of time.

anyway, feel free to bot me if needed today, as I must sleep and will then have work shortly after working.
Friggen sandpit plot concepts making me wear out my brain gears over molehills.


Pfff~t! 'Text walls'! ... oh, wait, yeah, those are text walls. (I'm trying!)


Layla, my apologies for leaving out requested information, and thank you for asking again.

All: please feel free to ask me for something again, if I miss it. Even though I read every post - usually more than once - I can easily miss things when trying to respond to everyone the first time.

Nine Hells, these revelations. I feel like I'm watching a fantasy soap opera (I now want to make and star in one). Times like these I wish I could drink at work. :P

Anyway sorry about not posting on the weekend. I work long hours so I tend to spend all my time with my girlfriend which leads to me forgetting things. Now that people post 45 posts when I'm gone I'll try to be better about posting on weekends.


No apologies needed, Dijiron. It's been... a busy weekend!

*Sigh!* Aalriight! I was starting to think the illusion is over kill anyways, so I'm thinkin' I may dismiss it (or take back my action if the GM let's me ^^), especially if Vtreous is uncomfortable playing the fly-god part. Then it'd probably jus' back fire.

*Grumble-rumble-* Wouldabeen sucha wonderful trick to see-*grumble*- woulda floored those nasty cultists!*grumble!*

Giant invisible snake surprise- and invisible fox assassin-or maybe two invisible assassins! Those are all still very strong possibilities! (Hehehe!)

One thing is for sure though, the game is it's own reward! Plus one to that! (^_^)

@ Dijiron: Tehehehe! At 'a fantasy soap opera!' I know, right!
An' I hope you enjoyed your weekend!

Best wishes to all! (^_^)


We should have some interesting posts in juuuuuusssst a little while...

No one is currently on Mange, but you do see one of the formerly gift-wrapped goblins lying on the ground near Mange and Ooze; Ooze is shaking his head, groggily.

Ahem: I totally edited this post, but forgot to say that I did so. My apologies! I usually note that I edited them... I simply didn't realize that, whatever version I had saved, was not one with the "EDIT" words and explanation.

I will, at this time, allow you to take the action back, or alter it somehow.

Also, I am surprised I didn't post it here, as I thought I'd done so: welcome back, Ooze!

Worth noting that, since I high-balled everything for the weight distribution above, the return of Ooze does not, in any way, hinder Vitreous from carrying everybody and everything. You've got, much less than the weights I listed above. Hence, you're more than golden.


Okay, now that we've heard from everyone and gotten the gist of things, I need to hear from Ceru, Schnorzel, and something else...

Also, I'm under the working presumption that Sunny rushes out to see her friends after freaking out about giant snake Vitreous. That seems like something she'd do? If not, let me know.

Ceru's really got nothing to say at the moment. She's riding Vitreous's giant mystic snake. I mean, riding Vitreous the Giant Mystic Snake (she's not that kind of girl) to whereever the hell they are going.

What I've got going on right now is we are all being carried by Vitreous, the NPCs are being carried by Rainbow Husk, we have gone past the shiny pagoda into the cave, and are headed to the priest's ritual chamber.

Also there's mist and lightning in there somewhere.


HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!

fair enough!

Hello guys! I was playing with you guys at the start of the campaign but had dropped out, so sorry for that firstly :(
However, your generious GM has invited me back into the game to continue playing Stone :)
Now I am still trying to wrap my head around what's happening in the last bit, I have been reading the last 75 or so posts trying to get my bearings... its a novel :S
Good news is Stone has always been a bit touched in the head, and just rendered himself uncouncious by headbutting a door, so I can cop out a bit as memory loss while I immerse myself in the game, until I am up to speed.

Oh ya, I got to level up to 3rd level :)
Are you guys ok with me coming back in?


Yes, now post in gameplay! Quickly!

EDIT: I'm dying over hear!

EDIT 2: Figuratively! I'm chompin' at the bit! Rarin' t'go! Ready for action! Excited! On the edge of my seat! Eager! Watching! Waiting! Egads, you guys, I wanna know what haaaaaaaaapppeeennnssssss......!1!one!1!

EDIT 3: to make it fit properly

EDIT 4: I'm such a mature and sagacious GM, you guys. Totally. You can see it in my avatar. BEHOLD MY MATURITY AND PATIENCE!

Maneuvering around to Schnorzel Sunny frowns at something, possibly the way Layla and such are talking. With a bright laugh Sunny simply takes her blue, glowy gem off and. with a deft lick to the back of it, sticks it to Schnorzel's forehead.

"There ya go!" (^_^)

I think this is your telepathic shard, right? The one you placed as a thing in your belly button? It's not big and not glowy, but it glints when light shines on it and you can definitely do that to it.

EDIT: to be clear, it doesn't actually function unless inserted (something entirely painless), but you can "stick" it onto her that way, too, if you want.

That... dun't sound right... >_>

(^_^)


It... it's the size of a splinter! Xp

And... and you totally knew! You 'itchied' it out of you, and pierced your naval with it! EDIT: and there's proof!

EDIT: ... 'course, you thought it sounded naughty back then, too... ;P

Well... I in't gon'a be stickin' no splinters in't poor Schnorzel's head. : p


I never suggested such a thing! I merely noted that it wouldn't do what you were looking for without *ahem* being in the creature in question's skin! as the lot of you have previously discovered. :) If and how that happens is up to you guys.


Male Ratfolk Wizard (Abjurer) 3 | AC 16 T 13 FF 13 | HP 11/11 | F +5 R +5 W +5 | Init +7

Wow, another prodigal son returns to us. Let us rejoice and be glad. Now only Lulu need return and we'll have everyone back.


Lulu and Eris. Unfortunately, I have received a PM from Lulu some time back indicating that she has definitively dropped from this game. Alas.


Alright! We have all we need but one, or two before an update occurs! If we don't get an update from them, I will go ahead and update a little later today.

*sigh* yeah, about that.
better late than never i guess?
Had plenty of clver ideas but as with most of my off the cuff concepts they had too many points of failure to suggest. So I just decided to respond to a few questions and go for the most immediate option of my giant pot of crackpot ideas.


Hey, it's no problem! That wasn't meant to be a "pressure you" post - with this many players, there's bound to be moments of "uh..." that people come up with. Mostly I'm just trying to manage the masses... and let everyone also have a good time! :D

'Sides... I like Schnorzel's crackpot ideas...


Female Gob-Lin-Lin (Midori) Story summoner 3 I HP 22/22 I AC: 17-12-15 (DR/5 C iron) F+2 R+3 W+7(Immune-Disease/Psn) I Init+2

Well I needed to post anyway, so it wasn't your pressure that did it.
it was the fact that I hadn't posted since, monday I believe. Wanted to put something down.

Soo... Schnorzel is on the Tele-network right now. How powerful are these gems they are using? I'm wondering if they will be capable of filtering out hallucinations in comparison to genuine thought.


Female Kitsune (Small Variant) Ninja (Performing Trickster) 3 | AC (22) 18 T 13 FF 16 | HP 16/19 | F + 0 R + 4 W + 4 | Init + 4

Good question! I'm thinking they filter out hallucinations, cause when Shaedo got drunk, no one else did too. Otherwise, that woulda been -WILD!
Ooze, also didn't transmit his burning pain and hunger when he got that iron beard...

On the other hand, the shards did have us share a common dream, so the full extent of their power remains mysterious.

Mass EDIT: added a bunch'a stuff.
...

Speaking of crackpot ideas, I altered the fly-mask illusion. Some were going along with it, but to others, I also got somewhat ambivalent reactions, so I just wasn't sure. I'm trying to be a team player, and I don't want to do anything that messes with anyone else's enjoyment!

My very first stratagem still stands- let's take out Jakk as quick as possible!

Though.... now that Shaedo has a precious ward, she is going to be less willing to sneak behind enemy lines. Maybe those black rocks are starting to sound like a better idea too!

....And there is another ability she has not mentioned. I am thinking for my concept of this tricksy little kitsune, is that her body absorbs the magic of the area around her, gradually manifesting as additional tails, granting additional abilities. There is one she has just gained reflecting the madness the ground has recently been experiencing... hehehe!


They certainly seem to only give purposeful mental communication, at least consciously.

Intriguingly, they don't register as magical... despite clearly being magical.

Hm. Funny that. Usually, that's only possible with elements that are so far beyond your ability to scan that... oh... hm...

(>:D)

However, before (or perhaps as) Vitreous takes off, Layla shouts and mentals,
"Wait! Do you still want your telepathy thingie, Eris, or should Sunny be usin' it?"

Bah! I knew I was forgetting something! I had the whole thing planned out, too! Ah, well, I handled it, and this way NO ONE will ever suspect I made a mistake! Hah! It looks like I planned it all along! Wait, crap, did I forget to use my "inside voice"?! Arg, how do I turn this thing of-

Of course it is! However, in the future, it would be helpful if you put the variously timed things (except for the last) in spoilers to help allow others to skip time-jump things. It's a great post, however! I like the callback to the dream. :)

Ok! Stone should be up to date, edited and lvl 3 :)
he had a couple things that were just wrong with him before but I got that sorted out the best I could :)
the only thing he is missing is 2 traits but what eves "Shrugs"


.
.
.

.
.
.

Stone:
Stone, choose any four instead of two:
- Armor expert (reduce your acp!)
- armor master (more acp reduction!)
- defender of the society (you'd get yet another +1 to AC)
- Advantageous distraction (maybe - depends on your character interpretation)
- balloon-headed (might be why he can wear the helmet)
- Big boned (very dwarflike)
- reviving rest (still feels dwarflike)

I'd especially recommend the two acp-reduction ones, an AC increase, and the big head.

Ooze:
Ooze, you gain this one, this one and this one (the do not complement your build at all, but you are becoming a goblin champion...)

Schnorzel:
Schnorzel, gain buried anxiety and defy madness (technically, she doesn't have the last one, but she likely will... soon, unless you wish to delay it for story reasons).

Everyone else gained something similar in the dream state, so now I'm equalizing the field a hair.

Members of Gob Smash One (i.e. all of you that were here at the beginning - so... not Schnorzel; sorry!), please acquire Improvised Defense as a bonus trait. I beleive it was intended to be part of your training bonuses, but I entirely forgot about it until I found it today - I could have just intended for something like it, but not found it until now.

Thanks.
