Livain, Maiathreen, got any actions for the occurring combat?
I figure unless the battle expands our traditional group is going to rip three ghouls to shreds in a round.
With a white dragon, even one in halfling form, and the teen bird witch its unlikely to last even that long.


Back again, internet is touch and go. Luckily my work leveled out (as level as Oil Field is concerned) and a new opportunity has arose that I will most likely take as it'll lead to moving up into a career instead of this dismal state I am in lol. Just depends on qualifications. So whenever there is a downside there is an upside I guess lol.

Hope alls well in your world Corerue

So it occurs to me that once we get done with this adventure in the mountains our group will be able to return to the mercenary company and will finally have the chance to actually arrive in Iobaria.
I'll admit after all we've seen on the outskirts of this place to being excited as to what Corerue has waiting. Interacting with his jerk NPC's we've been getting to see the occasional post from should be some fun as well.

While we've not had many interactions with him I'm also interested to see how Livain's Dwarven forge master responds to our little adventure up here.

Plus yanno, the whole 'Dragon knows Wallace is full of crap' bit.
We keep managing to wander into the worst kinds of NPC's for Wallace being able to use his Eldrich powers without giving away the game. I find it quite amusing.


All is good here, waiting for any remaining feedback beforeproceeding. Also adapting my life to the new work schedule will be hectic for the next two weeks. I am Permanent Nights now so posting times will change.

Are we good to go then across each game? If so I will get some posts up post haste!

I'm good


Male Male Human Evangelist cleric 4 HP 40/44 AC:17/13/14 F+7/R+4/W+9 Init+3 Perception+13

Yeah, I figure we are going to get mobbed by ghouls regardless of our cunning plans.


Will get a post up later today, flying. A lot for training for going back to an old roll. They dropped it on me a couple days ago and I have been too busy to post hardly at all. Should have one up this evening. Apologies for the wait.


Male Male Human Evangelist cleric 4 HP 40/44 AC:17/13/14 F+7/R+4/W+9 Init+3 Perception+13

I take by the lack of response Wallace's suggestion for battle order/ path is good enough?


Male Male Human Evangelist cleric 4 HP 40/44 AC:17/13/14 F+7/R+4/W+9 Init+3 Perception+13

So we good to keep going?


Yeah, my camp internet swapped over to a pay for good internet. So it is wayyyy restricted now to the point of totally useless.

Working on trying to catch up but its going to be tough.


Male Male Human Evangelist cleric 4 HP 40/44 AC:17/13/14 F+7/R+4/W+9 Init+3 Perception+13

Take your time, its just good to know we are still active.


Yeah , glad you guys are still here. I haven't forgotten about ya. Just figuring out these changes. :/


Male Male Human Evangelist cleric 4 HP 40/44 AC:17/13/14 F+7/R+4/W+9 Init+3 Perception+13

Man these poor ghouls just don't know whats coming at all. Its always amusing to see monsters running toward their death.


Male Male Human Evangelist cleric 4 HP 40/44 AC:17/13/14 F+7/R+4/W+9 Init+3 Perception+13

So are we pressing onward? its a week and a half since the last post game and no activity from Maiathreen/Livain on this game. I'd really like to break some ghouls soon.


1 person marked this as a favorite.

Yes, had little time to post at home. Been busy spending time with my boys haha. pressing onward!


Male Male Human Evangelist cleric 4 HP 40/44 AC:17/13/14 F+7/R+4/W+9 Init+3 Perception+13

So anyone feel like shooting ghouls with arrows and/or burning them?


Internet is sporadic where I am, go figure its summer time and we have low connectivity. I purchased a package at camp because the free internet is no go for like 6 hours after getting off work. Which I do stocks and other things like a know GAMING. So paid for it, so I can keep moving. Apologies for the Wait. Whose all still in?


Male Male Human Evangelist cleric 4 HP 40/44 AC:17/13/14 F+7/R+4/W+9 Init+3 Perception+13

No worries Corerue. That sucks.

I'm still in this having the excuse to play a cultist of an elder god is too much fun.


Female Centaur Ranger (Skirmisher/Divine tracker) 4

I'm here


Male Male Human Evangelist cleric 4 HP 40/44 AC:17/13/14 F+7/R+4/W+9 Init+3 Perception+13

So far the dice gods seem to want us to get eaten by ghouls. Lets hope somebody in the group has better luck. Wallace's fort save is not stellar especially not when making multiple saves.


Male Male Human Evangelist cleric 4 HP 40/44 AC:17/13/14 F+7/R+4/W+9 Init+3 Perception+13

That reminds me, about how tall is this room? I'd figured the armory was going to be one of the taller ones but it would be good to know if there is enough room for our fliers to maneuver or our draco-ling to go full on dragon if the battle requires it.


Female Centaur Ranger (Skirmisher/Divine tracker) 4

Yeah I was thinking that too. If he could go full size, they can fly and I can run around the battle will be a lot different even being swarmed.

From your description it feels like the LOTR goblin caves scene.


Good point! This room is 150 x 150 ft by 30 ft high, though with the armor racks and such it is hard to tell if there are varying elevations in here.

Wallace:

There are a lot of armor and weapon racks that, in case of invasion can be easily unsecured and turned into impromptu barricades. Or could, be used to pin foes. This area was a fall back in the sense if the area past this fell to an enemy force. This was not only a chokepoint but also the racks could be toppled to pin foes under the weight of the items held in place by straps. Once toppled the higher elevations, which contain heavy crossbows and repeating crossbows primarily could be armed and rain death on those pinned beneath the racks. despite having cover the racks are thin enough to allow maximum penetration for the crossbowman. Those that survive are then picked off at range by longspears that adorn the back walls. Thus minimizing the actual close combat the dwarves had to commit to.

Piture like a movie theater where seats are staggered at different levels. This are ahas a total of three areas. It raises every twenty feet away from the doors on each sides by 10 feet.


Male Male Human Evangelist cleric 4 HP 40/44 AC:17/13/14 F+7/R+4/W+9 Init+3 Perception+13

Hrmm, enough for them to reposition without getting mobbed then.
Though our dragon friend resizing will likely involve quite a lot of crashing armor racks.

DM:

So the side of the room closest to the church is the tallest/ most defensible then?
Doubtless the weapons in here will be of questionable value but tipping armor racks sounds like a barrel of fun in this place.


Apologies for lack of posts.

I will get a another post up in about twelve hours. Been working a lot of 18 hr days. Again my apologies for not posting a message sooner.

In the WotR I am waiting on an action post. The enemy tried to sneak attack Jen and then fled somewhere below. Kinda of your move there.

The enemies in Iobaria are gathering on the edge of everyones darkvision (60ft behind you) and the area ahead is obstructed by rcks. I haven't had time to upload my map as I am starting my work day but I thought I would post really quick.

Thanks for your patience.


Post coming soon, internet is being spotty again.


In 24 hrs I will close out both game threads due to lack of activity. Apologies guys for making you wait as long as I did.


Is there anyway to fix this I know Cyra and me haven't been posting like we should. So I can't help but feel this is our fault. Our life has been so hectic and twisted most of the time I don't even know what to do anymore. I do however know I love these games and hope there is someway to continue...


Female Centaur Ranger (Skirmisher/Divine tracker) 4

I will admit that the gaps make it hard to just jump back in again, but I definitely enjoy the games when everyone is involved.


Naw it isn't your fault Mai and Livain its like Rhavenna said. Its hard to jump and stop over and over again. So Now that I have had time to think about it I will get things moving in a more interesting direction...

I will PM Wallace here soon enough but we will continue as is. I am not giving up on Iobaria. I would like to restart Skyfall. But only when I am ready and recovered my game files.


So amazingly enough my schedule is changing back to mornings once again thank God! So I'll be off work at 3pm again in two weeks.


Stats: HP 33/33; AC 21, touch 17, Flat Footed 13; CMD 20; Fort +5, Reflex +7, Will +2; Perception +7; Initiative +4;

Corerue I sent you an email email not pm email.


Sat dish was wiped by a tree, sorry guys back online now!


Female Centaur Ranger (Skirmisher/Divine tracker) 4

Wow


Yeah. It's was a great month until then. Lots of wind and rain but I don't mind it but my trees got the crap whipped out of them. Had to cut some down which sucks. :(

Planted new ones but yeah... twenty years they'll be big.


So got a post up no word from Wallace yet. Hope he is okay. :/

Either way I am rolling forward.


Female Centaur Ranger (Skirmisher/Divine tracker) 4

Will post something later today.


Sounds good. :)


Female Centaur Ranger (Skirmisher/Divine tracker) 4

You might want to consider recruiting.


Yeah :/


I have someone who can join. You know them already and they were going to be in a fresh startup I had planned mainly offline, but we are shifting focus.

However here is some tidbits. This is the last guy. So feel free to go all out, I won't hold the possibility of continued combat over your head.

Aeria will be joining in momentarily. She has been strengthening in the background. So Rhavenna won't be alone, my bad for not posting it as well. Time has been limited lately. Herolab is good at keeping track of things.


Female Centaur Ranger (Skirmisher/Divine tracker) 4

On vacation but will post tomorrow. A lot to process.


Np, apologies for info dump. Tried to spend more time and not be vague as a lot did happen.

As of right now party members are separated, allowing for RL situations to resolve and to minimize pressure on each of us. I will continue forward like this for a time to ensure a fun experience, hopefully, for each of you. RL comes first. I haven't heard back from Wallace but I have a replacement for them.

So no Rush Rhavenna, enjoy your vacation!


Hello all, you've seen me before and I will be taking Wallace's place. Looking forward to gaming with you!


Female Centaur Ranger (Skirmisher/Divine tracker) 4

Very cool


Female Centaur Ranger (Skirmisher/Divine tracker) 4

A were-polar-bear! Awesome!!! With the eyepatch you reminds me of the iconic Rumpleminz ad


I am hoping it won't end up an issue but since this is the uncommon races party I thought I'd do something unique. I am glad you think it is interesting. :)


I am building a warpriest, thought it was suitable. >:3


Final touches and she will be good to go. Though I will miss my griffon riding werebear archer :p (Good thing Herolab saves them for me haha)

You still suck Corerue. You and your random encounter sheet.


Haha just got that pic to load Rhavenna, that's funny. XD

I think I had some of that the last time I was in Germany for Octoberfest. Which sadly I am missing for the first time in like 10 years this year. *sigh* oh well, there is always next year. And maybe this time Corerue will loosen up and go with me. : Get tipsy at least once in your life man. NOt plastered, just tipsy. Like fingertip tingling like in LotR with Gimli and Legolas.
