I am available (except Sunday between 11 and 12:30), given a 2-3 hour notice.

So, its been a while since we played via Roll20. You guys free this Sunday?

Jake is leaving for Scout camp early Sunday morning. Sorry.

Hmm, what about Saturday night? I'm going to be out in the morning but I should be back by mid-afternoon my time.


Male Human Variant Paladin [8] | H68 | AC20 | Init. +0 | Speed 30 | Svs: STR+5 DEX+0 CON+2 INT-1 WIS+3 CHA+6 | Perc+3 | Insight+3 | Inves.-1 | Hvy Armor Master (-3 dmg bld/prc/sls attacks) | Dueling | Oath of Vengeance | Aura of Protection (+3 all saves w/in 10 feet)

"Mom" says no because we still have a lot of prep and packing to do for camp. (Jacob leaves for Colorado early on Sunday morning and has to be fully packed and fully prepped, and there is a lot to be done on Saturday.)

Sorry. We will free up some time soon for an online session.

I won't be here next week so dad will probably play my character.

Most likely you have seen my Facebook post by now. I am trying to keep "the routine" as close to normal as I can so I do not forsee any delays here. While others would drop everything they were doing to deal with something like this I am not one who believes that is the way to face the issue at hand.

Unless events dictate otherwise I plan on continuing with no interruptions. I may post at different times or whatever but I'm keeping up with all of my games on the site. I believe the distraction to be beneficial.

In fact, I am still very open to playing over Roll20 whenever you guys can coordinate a time. My schedule is now exceptionally flexible, the time difference doesn't even matter now with the hours I'm keeping. Let me know.

I did see, thanks to John (who pays more attention to Facebook than I do). We have been and will continue to pray for Maggie.

Let me visit with Summer and see when we're free. I imagine we can break away for a few hours this week to play; I just need to figure out when that will be.


Male Human Variant Paladin [8] | H68 | AC20 | Init. +0 | Speed 30 | Svs: STR+5 DEX+0 CON+2 INT-1 WIS+3 CHA+6 | Perc+3 | Insight+3 | Inves.-1 | Hvy Armor Master (-3 dmg bld/prc/sls attacks) | Dueling | Oath of Vengeance | Aura of Protection (+3 all saves w/in 10 feet)

So Friday night and most of Saturday are out.

I think we might be able to play tomorrow (Thursday) night, around 7:00 CST, for about 3 hours. We also could try Sunday afternoon, but that's one day before the kids go back to school so it could be tight.

Julia would love to play with us again, if possible.

Tomorrow night is fine by me. Hopefully the others could do it.


Male Wood Elf Monk [7] HP 45 | AC 17 | Initiative +4 | Saves: ST +3 DX +7 CN +1 IN+0 WS+3 CR+0 | Perception +6 | Insight +3 | Investigation +0

I am free at that time as well.

OK, good. Just need to see if John is available or not.


Male Rock Gnome Wizard/Cleric [7/1] HP 43 | AC 14 | Initiative +0 | Saves: ST +0 DX +0 CN +1 IN +7 WIS +5 CHA +0 | Perception +2 | Insight +5 | Investigation +4

I think I am.

OK, 7 PM CDT tomorrow it is. I'll have to adjust for Julia but it shouldn't be a problem.


Scales of War - Yawning Portal Human Master of Dungeons [77] HP 1000 | AC 55 | Initiative -1 | Saves: ST +8 DX +8 CN +8 IN +8 WS +8 CH +8 | Perception +50 | Insight +60 | Investigation +70

Not sure I'll be able to post until tomorrow night as I've driven down to Murrieta, CA to look for an apartment.


Male Human Variant Paladin [8] | H68 | AC20 | Init. +0 | Speed 30 | Svs: STR+5 DEX+0 CON+2 INT-1 WIS+3 CHA+6 | Perc+3 | Insight+3 | Inves.-1 | Hvy Armor Master (-3 dmg bld/prc/sls attacks) | Dueling | Oath of Vengeance | Aura of Protection (+3 all saves w/in 10 feet)

Good luck with the home search.

Since we are about to start the 5th module of the series I was hoping to be able to do so over Roll20 as the first part of this would be a skill challenge. It would also give me time to prepare a few maps and read the adventure a little. Do you guys have some time available between now and Sunday night? I'm available anytime.


Male Rock Gnome Wizard/Cleric [7/1] HP 43 | AC 14 | Initiative +0 | Saves: ST +0 DX +0 CN +1 IN +7 WIS +5 CHA +0 | Perception +2 | Insight +5 | Investigation +4

I'm leaving town tomorrow and will be back sometime Sunday afternoon.


Scales of War - Yawning Portal Human Master of Dungeons [77] HP 1000 | AC 55 | Initiative -1 | Saves: ST +8 DX +8 CN +8 IN +8 WS +8 CH +8 | Perception +50 | Insight +60 | Investigation +70

OK, sounds like it would have to be Sunday afternoon/evening. Works for me.


Male Human Variant Paladin [8] | H68 | AC20 | Init. +0 | Speed 30 | Svs: STR+5 DEX+0 CON+2 INT-1 WIS+3 CHA+6 | Perc+3 | Insight+3 | Inves.-1 | Hvy Armor Master (-3 dmg bld/prc/sls attacks) | Dueling | Oath of Vengeance | Aura of Protection (+3 all saves w/in 10 feet)

The same is true for us. Jacob is camping with the Scouts until sometime Sunday afternoon.


Male Wood Elf Monk [7] HP 45 | AC 17 | Initiative +4 | Saves: ST +3 DX +7 CN +1 IN+0 WS+3 CR+0 | Perception +6 | Insight +3 | Investigation +0

I should be available in the afternoon as well.


Scales of War - Yawning Portal Human Master of Dungeons [77] HP 1000 | AC 55 | Initiative -1 | Saves: ST +8 DX +8 CN +8 IN +8 WS +8 CH +8 | Perception +50 | Insight +60 | Investigation +70

OK, sounds like that if everyone is up for it we can do something on Sunday. You guys name the time and I'll be ready.


Male Human Variant Paladin [8] | H68 | AC20 | Init. +0 | Speed 30 | Svs: STR+5 DEX+0 CON+2 INT-1 WIS+3 CHA+6 | Perc+3 | Insight+3 | Inves.-1 | Hvy Armor Master (-3 dmg bld/prc/sls attacks) | Dueling | Oath of Vengeance | Aura of Protection (+3 all saves w/in 10 feet)

Rick, we may need to postpone from today. Jake is still gone and he has to work on a science project (which is due tomorrow) when he gets home. My Internet is being reworked (rewiring the house) and so the Internet will be out for most of the day. Sorry!


Scales of War - Yawning Portal Human Master of Dungeons [77] HP 1000 | AC 55 | Initiative -1 | Saves: ST +8 DX +8 CN +8 IN +8 WS +8 CH +8 | Perception +50 | Insight +60 | Investigation +70

No worries, we can try to find a time during the week or shoot for next weekend. Let me know!


Scales of War - Yawning Portal Human Master of Dungeons [77] HP 1000 | AC 55 | Initiative -1 | Saves: ST +8 DX +8 CN +8 IN +8 WS +8 CH +8 | Perception +50 | Insight +60 | Investigation +70

Short notice, but are you guys free tomorrow sometime?


Male Wood Elf Monk [7] HP 45 | AC 17 | Initiative +4 | Saves: ST +3 DX +7 CN +1 IN+0 WS+3 CR+0 | Perception +6 | Insight +3 | Investigation +0

Yes.After 1PM for me.


Scales of War - Yawning Portal Human Master of Dungeons [77] HP 1000 | AC 55 | Initiative -1 | Saves: ST +8 DX +8 CN +8 IN +8 WS +8 CH +8 | Perception +50 | Insight +60 | Investigation +70

So, are you guys free sometime during the flip of the calendar weekend? I can do any time from now until Monday night, the weather will be too crappy to go outside.


Male Human Variant Paladin [8] | H68 | AC20 | Init. +0 | Speed 30 | Svs: STR+5 DEX+0 CON+2 INT-1 WIS+3 CHA+6 | Perc+3 | Insight+3 | Inves.-1 | Hvy Armor Master (-3 dmg bld/prc/sls attacks) | Dueling | Oath of Vengeance | Aura of Protection (+3 all saves w/in 10 feet)

Yeah, I think we can find some time. We can probably make any time that works for everybody else work for us, too.


Male Wood Elf Monk [7] HP 45 | AC 17 | Initiative +4 | Saves: ST +3 DX +7 CN +1 IN+0 WS+3 CR+0 | Perception +6 | Insight +3 | Investigation +0

I am fairly free as well, except 1st 11am -1pm. What time is good for you guys?


Scales of War - Yawning Portal Human Master of Dungeons [77] HP 1000 | AC 55 | Initiative -1 | Saves: ST +8 DX +8 CN +8 IN +8 WS +8 CH +8 | Perception +50 | Insight +60 | Investigation +70

OK, I'll ask again. Time to get together this Sunday perhaps?


Male Rock Gnome Wizard/Cleric [7/1] HP 43 | AC 14 | Initiative +0 | Saves: ST +0 DX +0 CN +1 IN +7 WIS +5 CHA +0 | Perception +2 | Insight +5 | Investigation +4

I might be able to do that late sunday


Male Human Variant Paladin [8] | H68 | AC20 | Init. +0 | Speed 30 | Svs: STR+5 DEX+0 CON+2 INT-1 WIS+3 CHA+6 | Perc+3 | Insight+3 | Inves.-1 | Hvy Armor Master (-3 dmg bld/prc/sls attacks) | Dueling | Oath of Vengeance | Aura of Protection (+3 all saves w/in 10 feet)

Perhaps. But Jacob is camping with the Scouts and we have relatives staying with us until some point in the afternoon. Early evening may work, but I have to check with the Boss.


Scales of War - Yawning Portal Human Master of Dungeons [77] HP 1000 | AC 55 | Initiative -1 | Saves: ST +8 DX +8 CN +8 IN +8 WS +8 CH +8 | Perception +50 | Insight +60 | Investigation +70

Well, that was meant for LAST Sunday. Since the rain finally stopped and it looks to be warming up I plan on playing golf this Sunday.


Male Rock Gnome Wizard/Cleric [7/1] HP 43 | AC 14 | Initiative +0 | Saves: ST +0 DX +0 CN +1 IN +7 WIS +5 CHA +0 | Perception +2 | Insight +5 | Investigation +4

oops. Okay, enjoy


Scales of War - Yawning Portal Human Master of Dungeons [77] HP 1000 | AC 55 | Initiative -1 | Saves: ST +8 DX +8 CN +8 IN +8 WS +8 CH +8 | Perception +50 | Insight +60 | Investigation +70

I haven't looked at it yet but I understand that there is a new book coming out that has a 5E version of The Tomb of Horrors in it. I'm very interested in running it for you guys here and/or over Roll20. What say you?

I don't know the level requirement for that dungeon yet. If you are interested we could use these current characters or roll up ones specifically for that adventure. Let me know what you think.


Male Rock Gnome Wizard/Cleric [7/1] HP 43 | AC 14 | Initiative +0 | Saves: ST +0 DX +0 CN +1 IN +7 WIS +5 CHA +0 | Perception +2 | Insight +5 | Investigation +4

Sounds good


Male Human Variant Paladin [8] | H68 | AC20 | Init. +0 | Speed 30 | Svs: STR+5 DEX+0 CON+2 INT-1 WIS+3 CHA+6 | Perc+3 | Insight+3 | Inves.-1 | Hvy Armor Master (-3 dmg bld/prc/sls attacks) | Dueling | Oath of Vengeance | Aura of Protection (+3 all saves w/in 10 feet)

Yes! Would love to play Tomb of Horrors.

And I'm good either way. I wouldn't mind rolling a new character, just to change things up a bit.


Scales of War - Yawning Portal Human Master of Dungeons [77] HP 1000 | AC 55 | Initiative -1 | Saves: ST +8 DX +8 CN +8 IN +8 WS +8 CH +8 | Perception +50 | Insight +60 | Investigation +70

OK, I'll have to look into it further then, assuming Varis likes the idea (as I assume Haldor does).


Scales of War - Yawning Portal Human Master of Dungeons [77] HP 1000 | AC 55 | Initiative -1 | Saves: ST +8 DX +8 CN +8 IN +8 WS +8 CH +8 | Perception +50 | Insight +60 | Investigation +70

I have discovered more about the book and I'm really starting to get interested in running all seven of the adventures included :

The Sunless Citadel: Level 1
The Forge of Fury: Level 3
The Hidden Shrine of Tamoachan: Level 5
White Plume Mountain: Level 8
Dead in Thay: Level 9
Against the Giants: Level 11
Tomb of Horrors: “Higher-level.” It’s tough!

Roll20 also has all of the maps/tokens needed to run these (at a cost, of course) but I'd have to buy the entire set, I can't just purchase Tomb of Horrors.

I don't really want to abandon Scales of War but converting from 4E to 5E isn't clean and it gets more uneven the further I go. Some things don't mesh well and sometimes the story presented in the adventures don't seem to be easy to follow. The idea of running a "campaign" that has been written for 5E does appeal to me.

What are your thoughts? I see a few options :

1. Continue Scales of War and run Tomb of Horrors on the side, either on the forum or in a set of sessions "live", as I originally proposed.

2. Continue SoW and start a new campaign entirely, running/playing both at the same time (with play by post this is entirely doable for me).

3. Continue SoW on PbP and do Tales from the Yawning Portal on Roll20 "live" whenever we can get together.

4. Quit/Postpone SoW and move on to TFTYP here on the forum, and play live when we can.


Male Rock Gnome Wizard/Cleric [7/1] HP 43 | AC 14 | Initiative +0 | Saves: ST +0 DX +0 CN +1 IN +7 WIS +5 CHA +0 | Perception +2 | Insight +5 | Investigation +4

I'm good with any of the options, I just know that us trying to get together to play "live" sometimes can be a challenge, as the weather is getting nicer, and Rick's golf game is getting warmed up.


Male Rock Gnome Wizard/Cleric [7/1] HP 43 | AC 14 | Initiative +0 | Saves: ST +0 DX +0 CN +1 IN +7 WIS +5 CHA +0 | Perception +2 | Insight +5 | Investigation +4

Rick, I'm also willing to pony up some for the Roll20 modules/maps. No reason you should have to cover the costs.


Scales of War - Yawning Portal Human Master of Dungeons [77] HP 1000 | AC 55 | Initiative -1 | Saves: ST +8 DX +8 CN +8 IN +8 WS +8 CH +8 | Perception +50 | Insight +60 | Investigation +70

No worries on the cost, other than golf I really don't spend money on much else anymore. And I have plenty of spare time, I can certainly get together with everyone.

The map pack is released today I believe, while the book itself is out April 4th, though I wonder if my local shop here gets it early like 8DCG might on some things. I'll wander down there and take a look later.


Male Wood Elf Monk [7] HP 45 | AC 17 | Initiative +4 | Saves: ST +3 DX +7 CN +1 IN+0 WS+3 CR+0 | Perception +6 | Insight +3 | Investigation +0

I would rather you run something you are excited to do rather then feel forced.

May be we should shelf SoW for a time and give the yawning portal a go. After all it is not like we cannot come back to the current campaign latter for a change of pace or an occasional one shot.


Scales of War - Yawning Portal Human Master of Dungeons [77] HP 1000 | AC 55 | Initiative -1 | Saves: ST +8 DX +8 CN +8 IN +8 WS +8 CH +8 | Perception +50 | Insight +60 | Investigation +70

Don't get me wrong, I enjoy doing it. I simply suspect TFTYP would be easier to do since its designed for 5E. And to be honest even I sometimes wonder what it is you guys are really supposed to be trying to accomplish overall in SoW.

The drawback I think will be that instead of being able to cut/paste things from the PDFs I have for SoW, I'll be forced to type out everything or take time to create my own PDFs of the hardcover book. I'll order the Roll20 thingy and see what I get, maybe they have more there than just maps and tokens.

If I do need the book I know some places release it tomorrow, unfortunately the lame comic book shop just down the street from me isn't one of those places, unlike 8DCG. Either I'll have to wait or find a place that sells it earlier.


Scales of War - Yawning Portal Human Master of Dungeons [77] HP 1000 | AC 55 | Initiative -1 | Saves: ST +8 DX +8 CN +8 IN +8 WS +8 CH +8 | Perception +50 | Insight +60 | Investigation +70

Well, from what I can tell I don't need to purchase the book as it looks like the thing I bought via Roll20 does include the adventures themselves. Just so happens that they are also set up for four adventurers so we have that covered also!

So, back to 1st level for the Sunless Citadel! You guys can get together and figure out what you want to play in this game. We'll finish this fight with Fengren as it just happens to be the finale (if you couldn't tell). After that we can either play both adventures side-by-side, have SoW go on hiatus, or whatever.

With PbP, playing two games is quite possible naturally. As a Pathfinder player I've been in as many as 12 games at one time and the GMs here sometimes handles as many as 4 games at once. I've actually cut down on how many Pathfinder games I'm in so it wouldn't be any issue to run both if you'd like.

In the meantime I'll try to get things set up for the Sunless Citadel... if I can remember how. In fact, post or message me the email address you want me to send the Roll20 invite to.

Tales from the Yawning Portal

When you create your new alias for this game go ahead and post in both the play and discussion threads. Meanwhile I'll try to get some introduction stuff posted later today or tomorrow.

I put a question for you guys in the TFTYP discussion forum.


Male Human Variant Paladin [8] | H68 | AC20 | Init. +0 | Speed 30 | Svs: STR+5 DEX+0 CON+2 INT-1 WIS+3 CHA+6 | Perc+3 | Insight+3 | Inves.-1 | Hvy Armor Master (-3 dmg bld/prc/sls attacks) | Dueling | Oath of Vengeance | Aura of Protection (+3 all saves w/in 10 feet)

FYI, guys, I rolled a sorcerer for the new game.
