The thrones are sturdy, intricately carved wooden chairs with cushions upholstered in purple velvet. Together they might be enough to pin a person, but it seems unlikely they would be enough to restrain such a large creature.
Cute light wounds :D
Rin's appearance was based on this nice picture!
Anyone have decent intimidate? Or at a pinch diplomacy? If noir we may as well just kill it and search the rest of the Keep for clues.
I have a pretty solid diplomacy. Let him wake up and I'll give it a shot.
Perhaps Jacomo became a clown because he was constantly walking into things and falling down anyways...
Haha. At least you didn't devote a lot of resources to it, only to roll a 1 every time.
Igmutanka taps on Jacomo's shoulder and whispers:
-Maybe you want to turn off that- pointing to the continual flame effect on the ioun stone.
Then he adopts his stealthy stance and they both lose themselves into the darkness...
A good point; I'd quite forgotten about the lighting issue - that's what I get for not acquiring darkvision. Nate, are any of the rooms or passages lit? If not, Jacomo will either have to trail behind Igmutanka by 50' or so (the dim light radius of the effect is 40') or join the non-stealth party, leaving poor Igmutanka to explore alone...
It's still mid-afternoon and any rooms or hallways with windows will have sufficient light for you to see, albeit dimly on the east side. There were no light sources in the throne room but in the entry way outside it there are two lampstands with the oil still burning.
Sorry I haven't made a real post in a little while: partly I've been waiting for you all to get your course of action settled, and partly I got blindsided by a $h!t-storm at work this week. I'm hoping to make a real post tonight and if Rin hasn't posted anything by then I'll send her with the unstealthy party and PM her to make sure everything's ok.
Sorry (again)- things at work apparently had to get worse before they could get better and I just haven't had the emotional/intellectual resources to write anything at all. I think we turned a corner today and I might get something up (though I have a pretty full day of meetings). Apologies for the delay, I will get something up by tomorrow afternoon.
hey all,
Rin still hasn't responded to my PM... I think we can finish up this exploration without her but I would like to have a full arcane caster in the party (or a reasonably close substitute). Does anyone know a reliable friend on the boards that might be interested? Or should I start looking back over the recruitment for someone? There was another table started by another GM... it looked like maybe it imploded but I could see if there was a member of that party I could bring in (that way they'd already have some exposure to being here instead of just now waking up with no memories and no idea at all what's going on)?
I'm too new here to be of any use in that matter, sorry.
I'd say go for someone from that imploded Campaign, though I am not really sure why we need an arcane caster? What role would they be fulfilling? I would say just take the best that is on offer regardless of class.
we don't need a full arcane caster but in a sandbox style game I definitely think they help... i mean, i'm building the adventures around you and your decisions so we all have some control over how necessary one is but they do bring a lot to the table in terms of utility and problem solving...
i'll look at the other thread and see who's available from it (and how they were with posting and whatnot) and we can go from there.
I want to leave notice that I'm going on holidays to France, starting Friday and for a whole week. I'll try to log in, but can't asure anything. Please bot me as needed. Sorry about the inconvenience.
Enjoy the holiday
thanks for the heads up. I'm assuming that when you get back to the starting point and the others aren't there you're going to head out the way they went? if so feel free to read their spoilers. I'm going to have to wait and see what they do next to figure out exactly where you find (or miss) them.
Yeah, we'll try to follow the way we figure they went... so I'll read a pair of spoilers until I see weird options or something.
just to clarify my comment from yesterday: I'm waiting on Ariok and WK2 to decide what they're doing with the information from the old woman before either group can really move forward...
Sorry. I misunderstood. Post up shortly.
It's been a week without a post... You guys lose interest?
Hi! Back from holidays!
Hey all, I have to have surgery tomorrow and may not be able to post for a few days, and then will be on heavy medication for a few weeks after that (which will limit my posting). This campaign had already sort of stalled (though I appreciate Ari and Igmutanka posting) so rather than try to nurse it back to health while I'm recovering I'm going to pause it. Once I'm doing a bit better, whoever is still around we can talk about if we want to try to bring back this game or start something new. Thanks for your understanding.
Arite, I'll be around waiting. Have luck with your medics!
Nate is through surgery and on his way home to rest
It went well, thanks for the thoughts and prayers.
