As information: the college has now made me full-time as of right now. So I am now eating my lunch as I type...
I am going to use one of my websites to hold a core of PDFs for role-playing purposes, to get around the 'at work, books at home' syndrome, and so maintain a reasonable presence here.
Also, I am running for ENnies Judge this year. Voting starts at the end of the week. Your support would be appreciated :)

I was busy last night and, finding that the filesize was too big for the site I was thinking of (being the one that's password protected, so no problems about putting APs & stuff there, they cannot get pirated!) and not having time to alter the upload limit, they've ended up on my USB drive too...
Gorguk |
Hey guys, I am sorry, but the pace we are going isn't really giving me any enjoyment. It's not that Gorguk is not at the palisade, but rather it has taken 3 weeks to perform one surprise round and 1 full round of combat. I just can't get into this style. I have tried to give it time to see how things progress but unfortunately it does not work for me. I enjoy the RP, so nothing personal. Hope you find someone else to join you and continue on. Good luck.

I'm sorry to hear that, but I can't blame you in the least. I think our fair DM let us paint her into a tough corner splitting up like we did and she's been busy with RL to boot.
It's been so long since I posted that I've lost the dot for these threads. I'm luck the focus function still includes this thread or I would not even know you had posted.
If you don't come back, good luck, but it's been such a trial with this game to get this far, I hope you will give it another chance. Maybe you and the ranger will need to get into some mischief while the others are playing spy games.
Lothar Narda |
I've been dealing with taking care of my grandmother so I've been kind of distracted by RL myself. Fortunately for me, someone else is being brought in to do what I was doing so I'll be able to pay more attention to what's going on.
As for our DM, she's been pretty busy. Don't forget that she was running for ENies judge. That's got to be eating into alot of her time (assuming she got the position). Add on her teaching gig to that and I'm sure that she'd much rather be dealing with us than all of that.
I really wish you wouldn't drop out of the game. Gorguk is one of the more interesting paladins I've played with. His loss would be keenly felt by all of us. But if you truly feel that doing so is the best thing for you, then its all good.

I don't know yet about the ENnies judge thing, the results of the election are announced Friday evening US time. As for the 'teaching gig' it is the calm before the storm of enrolment and the start of term.
At the moment, I am waiting on those who ARE at the pallisade to do something.
Darn it, time to stir things up....

A trader/messenger who called at Oleg's at least once when you were there....
We start enrolment today, weektime access may be a bit patchy for the next few days. And just when you lot were getting going again! Never mind, I shall stick my nose in when I can.
Megan Robertson |
Thank you.
Felt rather weird sitting in Sacrament meeting thanking Heavenly Father for it, though! Yet had it not pleased Him, I would not have been elected.
Now to sort out some bookshelf space... the one my husband bought me last time I was a judge has collapsed!
Rhasadilara Goldenbough |
I think that's because the concept of law and order out here is so foreign that it doesn't even occur to them.
Lothar Narda |
I got to look at a copy of Paths of Prestige this week while at the FLGS. First thing I did was check out the champion of Irori.
O. M. G. !!!!!!.
If this prestige class had been around when we started, I would have set myself up for it. Truth is, the only thing keeping me taking it is the fact that I need both still mind (from the monk) and smite evil (from the paladin). The paladin level is something that I can still do. However, Lothar would have made a terrible monk (given his Wisdom), which is why I went ninja in the first place (to be a "monk" without actually being a monk by getting a Charisma-based ki pool).
Sigh...
Maybe next time.
As far as the bandits outlook is concerned: just shows how lawless the place truly is. Looking forward to becoming a BDH (big damn hero).

Sorry I have been a bit distracted. You see, I had been on a temporary contract. I was invited to interview again to be made permanent... and the [word no lady would use even in her mind let alone in public] decided to hire someone else. So, blat! Goodbye, and not even a thank you for the work done, just a bald e-mail... Oh well, more time for gaming!

I'm sorry to hear this.
They obviously don't know when they've got something good. Fortunately, we do.
Calinder Surital |
Megan, can Calinder see the Staglord and his men from where he is at this point? And does he have any idea which way he needs to go to at least get into view of the Staglord.
I have a few ideas as to some things Calinder could do, but it would depend on where Calinder is at and what he can see. Any information you could give me would be helpful.
Thanks, and have a good day.
Megan Robertson |
Calinder can see the rear of the Stag Lord as he peers down from the walkway. Directly underneath him there's a cluster of bandits watching, not seeming to be taking sides or intending to help anyone.
And the ginger cat is standing beside him.
That give you the picture?
And thank you for the kind remarks, Lothar. I worry about the students. I'd just got some 60 of them hooked on programming and there isn't anyone else there who can teach it.
Calinder Surital |
Just thought that it might be a good idea if I listed out the spells that Calinder has cast, as much as a reminder to myself, but also as information for everyone else.
Round 1-4? - Guidance: 1 min. or until used. Cast on Lothar, ex-bandit, Barnabus, and Calinder himself (used).
Round 6 - Shield of Faith: 4 min., +2 to Calinder's AC.
Round 7 - Divine Favor: 1 min., +2 to attack and damage rolls.
Round 8 - Spiritual Weapon: 4 rounds, +6 attack, 1d8+2 (x3) force damage. In the form of a longbow, currently targeting the Staglord.
This is assuming that round 1 started when Gorguk Announced himself at the gate to the fort.
Rhasadilara Goldenbough |
Good idea. I have no idea of the scale of the fort, but I assume that a double move on Sunset will allow Rhasa to circle around toward the back of the fort. Another round to dismount and approach, a third to charge up the hill, and a fourth, at least, to move along the wall. She did not pop into the scene until after the challenge, I think, so at best she will be in position at round five. And that's giving her a lot of favorable bounces, so to speak.
