Hu5tru Runs Jade Regent

Game Master Hu5tru

Inspired by visions of John Carpenter's the Thing, Akira Kurosawa's Dreams and his masterpiece Ran. And maybe a little of Throne of Blood and some good ol' fashioned Toshiro Mifune neck scratchin'. Now with Ninjas and Vikings and Bears, oh my!

Sorry for the delay. Will get a scouting post up for Broderus forthwith!

@ PirateDevon, Foorsooth!

I am in a strange mood because one of those history channel specials on aliens and UFOs was on while I was eating dinner. And I haven't had much sleep the passed few nights.


Female Human Housewife/1

Hope everyone and assorted spouses and mothers, and if children are of age, have had a great NSFW obligation day.

If you are not familiar with Oglaf, you probably do not want to click. :P

I've got a folder full of webcomics I read pretty faithfully. That one is on the list.


Female Human Housewife/1

Oh man, I love Sandoval, the ambassador from Xoan. I've wanted to make a elven cleric of Calistria since I read the masquerade strip. I really want to stat the Mistress, too.


Female Human Housewife/1

Quick note, going to be unavailable from Friday till Monday. Destination: No. Cal to spend time with family I have not seen since I was married and I don't have a cellphone that works in this country, much less a smart phone for keeping up with them new fangled dubbya-dubbya-dubbya dots on the interbutts.


Male Human (Tian-Min) Alchemist 2

Right on. Have a good trip, and we'll see you in a few days.


Female Human Housewife/1

Working on your battle map for the next few days. Will of the die on whether or not your stealth attempt worked...


{HP36/36 | AC16 T10 FF16 CMD17 | F/R/W 9/4/7 | Inish +0, Per +0}

Methinks I had a misunderstanding. Thought me and Valcrim were taking the rear as the less stealthy of the group. Fine with it, though. Oh, and ouch!


Female Human Housewife/1

Ah, i thought that Valcrim was the go to lead dude since he isn't ever going to be encumbered by his armor. but, regardless of where you were, unless you said "I'm ducking behind the palisades for cover as I'm moving" for the concealment/soft cover, you unfortunately were going to get hit.

But, you should be thankful that goblins are mostly inept and the sentries have decided to show their location, and for certain members of the party, their intentions. :P


Male Dwarf Cleric of Torag 2

So many crits! I love it! :D


Female Human Housewife/1

Woo, twenty minutes of BBC encoding for that round... sheesh. Really hope that Joyabraund doesn't drop that goblin and ruin that beautiful flank crit :P


{HP36/36 | AC16 T10 FF16 CMD17 | F/R/W 9/4/7 | Inish +0, Per +0}

Sorry on brevity of post, away from computer at present.


Male Dwarf Cleric of Torag 2

I am getting kinda worried about all these 20s. If the karma fairy keeps score, I am gonna get critted several times in the fight with the boss :P


Female Human Housewife/1

*stares blankly at my game for a bit*

Uh... less than two hours of sleep last night. Will start working on something soon. I had something planned, but uh... my brain is not a compression engine.


Male Human (Tian-Min) Alchemist 2

Seiji isn't hateful, or even ruthless, but the goblin did not drop its weapon after Joyabraund's overture. Seiji is pretty certain the door is about to open, and so he took the opportunity to eliminate one more foe.

I'm not saying it's the right thing to do, but I think that is how my character would act given the circumstances.


Male Dwarf Cleric of Torag 2

It's a goblin. Not like he dropped a kid that had stolen a loaf of bread and refused to surrender it. Killing evil and corrupt things is part of being good. Those without the steel in their blood to end evil, helps it flourish by doing nothing.

That is the way Valcrim sees it, as per Torag's dogma.


Male Human (Tian-Min) Alchemist 2

I think Seiji and Valcrim see eye-to-eye on this one, though perhaps their reasoning differs slightly.

For Seiji, it mostly boils down to the fact that the group was tasked with wiping out the goblins and then traveled to the swamp with the expressed intention of doing so. He did struggle with that decision, but now that it has been made, he is fully committed to it.

Invading the home of Walthus Proudstump gave him pause because it was unexpected. Maybe I'm playing Lawful Neutral too literally, but as a character, Seiji is very much governed by "What we've been told to do."

In any case, I'm not trying to launch a philosophical debate. A little roleplaying tension is always good. I honestly felt a little funny having Seiji take that action, so perhaps I'm just justifying it "out loud."


Female Human Housewife/1

Just a little break here coz you guys have decided to storm a fortified area. You know that these guys have access to ranged weapons, and when you push open the door, you don't know what's going to be waiting for you on the other side.


Male Dwarf Cleric of Torag 2

I guess it is easier to be a cleric in some ways, as your perceptions in life is required to follow certain guidelines. As LG deities go, Torag is rather unforgiving. His first and foremost concern is the protection of those who cannot protect themselves. And for that to be achieved, contemplating what is right and wrong when it comes to dealing with murderous monsters is right out the window.

Your duty as a cleric of Torag is to ensure that those who place their trust in you will not be harmed. Killing evil is a given, and when the dwarven ancestral enemies are involved, I do not think Valcrim would even think twice about killing them even without a personal slight. After all, dwarves hate them so much they gets a mechanical bonus to hit them. In my mind, that pretty much equates to "Kill on sight."

Won't be nearly as driven to kill a human that has obvious potential for reform, of course. Nor will he insist killing a wild animal that can be scared off, and does not pose a threat to the community.


Joybraund's people have seen too much of people's darker natures and I think that is so engrained in the halfling experience that my perception of it was more a concern of the fast flying bolt than the killing of the goblin. I perceive Joyabraund's NG as "I will do the best I can but I'm no preacher". He might ask or talk about it later but he isn't too judgemental...and it is...after all...a goblin.


Female Human Housewife/1

okay, so. splitting up...

i will decide in a bit how to murder you all and post tonight. :)


Male Dwarf Cleric of Torag 2

To clear up any potential confusion on Valcrim's spellcasting: When he uses his hammer, which has a weapon cord attached to it, he spends a free and a swift action to drop and recover it. Just posting it here, rather than in every spellcasting post from here on out.

Good use of the grease spell, Joya ;)


Thanks....truth be told I was about to blast the spot but then I thought of our poor paladin playing slip and slide. It might not make much of a difference if folks close with him in the round but I figure it was better than me moving in for an attack! ;-P


Male Dwarf Cleric of Torag 2

Is this game dying, or is it just slow during easter week?


Female Human Housewife/1

Not dying. Chronic pain and lack of sleep on my part scatters my brains for running combats.

Thankfully between all you powerhouses and this by the book encounter it should be over soon and you can investigate stuff and give me more things to do than move chits about on a map and mime battle tactics.


Male Human Ranger 2 (Guide)

Hu5tru,

I think I got a little confused during combat. I thought I had a surprise round to sneak up on the goblin and then do my full attack during round one. I see you posted my attacks during round 2. If it took me both rounds to reach the goblin, that's fine. I'll just post my next attack in round 3 if we're still engaged in combat. :)


Female Human Housewife/1

Okay... after a week of pain on the 6-8 scale and 2-3 hours of sleep each day (spaced out over passing out at my desk occasionally every few hours) I finally have the chronic pain under control, and some stuff to help me sleep nights. Hurray!

I will look at where we were and where we need to be to get this game going again.

So be thinking about what your intrepid heroes of Sandpoint want to do when you get back to the city after utterly crushing these vile little beasties and I'll be thinking about how its really going to affect the future of the town, which is my favorite part of GMing and get myself back in this game, making it all real for you guys!

*Listens to Uchuu Senkan Yamato for inspiration*

Yosh!!


Male Human Ranger 2 (Guide)

Hey Guys and Gal,

The amount of posting in our game has really slowed to a crawl. Are we reaching the end of this gallant campaign or is there still another resurrection scroll up our sleeves?

I'm still up for continuing. This has been my first PBP campaign, and I've had a blast, especially in the beginning when the posts were flying off the pages and the role playing was through the roof! If we are reaching the end, it's been a great experience, and I thank all of you for providing me with hours of memorable gaming. :)


Female Human Housewife/1

Yeah, getting to it this very as we speak end, hopefully. I can actually see my feet again today, so my recovery is nigh complete!

Just gotta prod some folk in the behind, and if it means that I post every day just to say "hey, your action doesn't do much, sorry," i suppose that's what I will do.

Because I am excited about running this with fun NPCs. PD should know I put a lot of effort into my NPCs, and making the world about seem... real, at least I hope to.

So... yeah. Probably get started prepping some stuff for when you guys kill the remaining small fry and descend upon Gutwad as a group. And some other stuff that i've thrown out and need to justify.

Coz really, no goblin young in their compound? they live like 2 weeks at most, there should be some eggs somewhere... sheesh.


{HP36/36 | AC16 T10 FF16 CMD17 | F/R/W 9/4/7 | Inish +0, Per +0}

Next level for LoH, then won't be so dependant on you Valcrim. I expect you want to get in there too.


Male Dwarf Cleric of Torag 2

LoH is the bomb. My paladin in Serpent Skull relied heavily on it.

Until level 3, I have no problems being secondary in terms of melee combat. That is when I get Power Attack myself, and can cast Bull Strength to start dishing out some real damage. The dice has not been nice to my hammer. Could almost just as well been a 2E warhammer for 1d4+1 :P


Female Human Housewife/1

Oh dear. Ya'll will be so disappointed with me shortly...

Brace yourselves!

*edit

On second thought, I think I will let Yamamoto Seiji take his action before I say anything...


Now that is just mean.

"Suddenly a dragon eats the halfling..."

What could it be!?!?


Female Human Housewife/1

well, i had not thought of a dragon eating the halfling, but i admit that that would be suspenseful.

No perception checks against said large monster, either, as though you even had a chance to make the DC against a dragon with greater invisibility... but, if that was the case... hmm...

*goes to read up on dragons for next encounter*

A cat appears in front of you, it meows and suddenly entangle!


Male Human Ranger 2 (Guide)

Yikes! I'm getting nervous too!

Watch out for the LAVA CHILDREN!!!!!


Female Human Housewife/1

gentlemen, please roll your San checks while we wait for Seiji to post his action.

*malicious grin*


Male Human (Tian-Min) Alchemist 2

Sorry, I've been in 12 hour tech rehearsals all weekend. I've been maintaining the campaign I'm running at a limp, but falling behind in all others. My apologies.


Female Human Housewife/1

No problemo. Just didn't want to rush you to do what you were going to do simply to end combat.


Male Dwarf Cleric of Torag 2

Gonna wait until Treygan rolls to see what I'll do next. Likely attack, I guess. Would be nice if we could get the little bugger in a flank.


{HP36/36 | AC16 T10 FF16 CMD17 | F/R/W 9/4/7 | Inish +0, Per +0}

Apprently what Treygan does next is miss. Doh!


Fie on thee dice gods of the board!


Female Human Housewife/1

Hahaha. I love it. Give me more frustration. Let the hate build in you...


Strike me down with your anger and your transformation will be complete...


Female Human Housewife/1

Too much ToR. :P


Too much? I daresay not enough...


Female Human Housewife/1

Will get a big "here's what you find" post up sometime tonight. after someone has turned down the sun.


Silence Californian!

I need MORE sun! Turn it UP!


Female Human Housewife/1

I will have you know that it was over 95 degrees last weekend, and it's not even May. that is Ninety-Five degrees. In April.

Ridiculous.


Mhhm sounds wonderful

<----- Actually a lizard in disguise.


Female Human Housewife/1

Hey guys. My grandmother is in the hospital with some vascular problems and they're concerned about a spot on her lung. I can't get away to visit with her, so I'm a bit shaken up. I'll try to get a post up this weekend when I've heard more, but if I'm slow, I apologize.
