okay, just checking.
So far, looking at people's character sheets, I notice that Kurat, Drax, and Gidgey have Common listed as one of their languages, but I don't see a way that they could (Kurat has 3 languages, a 7 int, and no ranks in linguistics; Drax has Common and Orc listed as his two languages, a 10 int, and no linguistics; and gidgey has common and goblin listed as his two languages, but he has a 12 int, so he could take common as an additional language if he wanted).
I think my common meant the general common as in Sylvan, but Goblins can't normally learn Sylvan as a starting language... What to do?
Sylvan is the "common" of the convocation (you can find out more in the game info tab). so anyone who would by default have common would have sylvan instead.
As the convocation has had an on again/off again relationship with Aeon, common is...well....common enough that anyone can take it as a additional starting language.
Ok, then that would be the common I'm referring to on my sheet. I'll write it in brackets
I figured that some people missed it, but as I was asked about it during recruitment, I added info to the game info tab (which I keep adding to, and would highly recommend you guys checking regularly for things you have learned/addendums to things that happen in game/basic notes for important NPCs, and so on.
Hello to all.
i will be away for a mountain vacation until the 31 with Zero internet connection.
Please Bot me as appropriate.
I will be available today if you have a question tough.
So far, looking at people's character sheets, I notice that Kurat, Drax, and Gidgey have Common listed as one of their languages, but I don't see a way that they could (Kurat has 3 languages, a 7 int, and no ranks in linguistics; Drax has Common and Orc listed as his two languages, a 10 int, and no linguistics; and gidgey has common and goblin listed as his two languages, but he has a 12 int, so he could take common as an additional language if he wanted).
This is completely my bad/mixup and I am sorry for this. The ARG states that hobgoblins begin speaking Common and Goblin, however my backstory states that in a way I was raised among humans, so I had a hard time in making it all work.
Can I consider maybe Goblin to be Sylvan or not?
Half orcs get Orc as a bonus language. I have added sylvan as Drax's base language. The one point in linguistics gives him common.
@Kurat: I have no problem with you replacing Goblin with common, especially given your backstory.
@ Drax: you should update your character sheet. It looks like you're still 2nd level.
Did he pay a level penalty for his race? Maybe that's the difference.
Updated!
he did, kryzyn, but it's only 2 levels, so he should be 3rd level at this point.
That was a bit of a hodgepoge I had updated BAB, saving throws and spells, but not skills and feats. It should be a bit cleaner now. I am assuming I am advancing to 5th level as far as feats/ability scores are concerned if I am wrong let me know.
you should be a 3rd level character as far as everything goes (so your skills, feats, and so on would all be as per a 3rd level character).
I thought skills go by class level, Feats and ability scores go by character level. . .
I will go adjust.
Edit: Done.
Feel free to start a tavern brawl here. Wouldn't want to ruin your perfect record! =P
Hmmm how many caravan guards did you say there were? How about how many guards at the gate?
Also do I take a penalty to deal non-lethal dmg when I punch someone with my claws? :)
I wonder how they would take it if I took a peak in their wagons. . . I am betting not well. I really wish Gidgey was here. I need a hit of invisibility!
there are 5 caravan guards at the one table. There are two gate guards, and you saw a couple more making rounds inside the courtyard area.
yes, you take the -4 penalty to non-lethal with any weapon that isn't designed to do non-lethal.
Ya, guards tend to frown a bit on people "taking a peek" at stuff they're guarding. As a general rule.
As an aside, I was totally joking about starting a bar brawl. It would probably not be the best idea.
I know that you were joking about the tavern brawl, but with INT of 7, Kurat is not the "sharpest knife in the drawer", so he tends to react before thinking things through. Hopefully, situation at hand will not deteriorate further, but you're free to ract in whatever way you feel is appropriate (after all, it's just a tavern wench who's probably been insulted lots of times before, right? ;-)
Plus, a tavern brawl would provide a very good distraction for someone to take a peek into the wagons, right? *hint, hint
Ya, she knows how to take verbal abuse alright, as you can see.
Oh dear. This could get messy.
to dissuade OOC confusion, since Kurat made himself looks like the human who befriended him, the waitress thinks that Kurat is Ragrat; That would be why she treated him thusly.
I know. :)
Sorry about my limited posting yesterday: I got busy at work, then guilted into helping a friend move last night.
No worries. Life happens :)
I'm so glad I've become immune to guilt trips...
Guys just FYI, posting this across all my PbP's here, still in the field (my 3rd day) returning ro civilization tomorrow morning , will start posting afterwards (12-16 hours from now). Sorry for delay.
no worries; I've been there (I'm former active duty US Army).
Hello to all,
I am back from my trip so give me a day or two to catch up with the post in this game and the others i play in...
WB. nothing out of the ordinary happened, really. it was just a dry run for infiltrating human society.
oh really ;)
lol you made me think of patty and Charlie brown.
sorry about the derth of posts this week. Work has been...well, work. I should have something up later today.
got something posted now for Chak-Chak, so we should be picking back up soon. Finally got a testing project done that was.....really long and boring.
You all have 6 seconds to buff up ! We attack the boat secure the prisoner. if this is the person we are looking for perfect if it is not we raid the inside of the structure. Once we have the prisoner secure we split up. Gadget will go with the prisoner to the rally point. Also i want all those of casting detection spell to verify the prisoner is free of any compulsion/enchantment / illusion effect.
Casting a Shield of Faith
Ready ? concentrate all Ranged attack on the bald guy wearing no armor .
Just a couple of clarifications - do you suggest that we attack through/from water? I do not understand if the mentioned boat could be accessed by land (without storming the house) or not?
Kurat is both a bad swimmer (no ranks), and in heavy armor it may take him a few rounds to even reach that boat. Or would you like me to support you with a ranged attack?
@GM Vrog - Can I use Profession/Soldier roll to gain some additional insight maybe?
currently my understanding is that the enemy is currently boarding the ship that is attached to the private dock.
Therefore we storm the "Ship" by land since it is still attached.
That would be excellent, if it is so. I was under the impression that the only access to the ship/boat/dock is through the house, that's why I asked. Let us wait for GM to clarify.
if you guys check out the campaign info tab, there's a link to the combat map (that's where I keep things like that). Remember that there's a 15' alley on both sides of the warehouse, and you'll be doing just fine.
Guys, I'm sorry but I need to drop out. Work is getting crazy and I don't have the time to address this properly.
Feel free to NPC him or whatever.
Have fun ya'll!
Guys sorry for no posts during the last 4 days. My company decided to send me in the field, and in Nigeria internet is not really available in the rural areas. Just got home, tired as hell. Will go to the office in the morning and start regular posting then (10-12 hours from now). Cheers.
Do we get to go again (new round)?
Which sentries are "the other 2"?
if you look at the map, the two sentries on there are marked S2 and S4. there are 2 more, but they're further out, and making their way towards the combat.
Are the doors to the building open or closed?
they're open, you just have to go around the building.
hmm….. I am Gidgey
Sorry guys, I am in the field for business, no net here (Nigeria), returning to Lagos (Internet acces) on Friday, will resume posting then.
sorry, l realize I may have caused some confusion about the door thing. The street side doors are closed, but the water side ones are open.
