[Fubar]

"Did you say howling, devil dogs!"

[Hellefire]

Back!!
Sort of. Cant get more than about 1mbs out of this line, but it'll work for PbP.

[Yucale]

Well, I have to bow out of GMing early.
For a school project, I have to give up an activity ('addiction') that I do on a daily basis. I don't drink coffee, chew gum, text, go on Facebook... and it would be impossible to not read for three weeks in school. So. Someone will have to run Caydee as an NPC or find a way for her to leave temporarily- but after the three weeks are over, I'll join right in again as I can.

[DM Post Ghost]

Did you consider giving up a hygene practice.... bathing or something instead?

I Do not see much alternative except to take over again for the three weeks.....All in favor vote aye!

Early april fool's?

[DM Post Ghost]

The howling stopped some time ago yet you are still ill at ease!

Stealth check

I will need a perception check for each PC!

and an initiative roll!

Works for me. Good luck K! Thanks for stepping up Fubar. Vardara/Krill, you need to decide whos up for DM next!

[Azhateran Slug]

perception check: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (7) + 11 = 18
initiative check: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (17) + 1 = 18

But, I can't seem to discover the source of my unease, except the silence is worse than the howling...

Dunno, but I feel creepy...and I heard distinct howling and now I don't and...well, I just feel creepy

Ahz tosses a random snowball at the back of fubar's head to relieve the tension.

Out of turn based combat....

Yucale

Spoiler:

All I had was this combat do you want to go back to DMing?

[Azhateran Slug]

Reflex save: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 16

Ahz staggers and almost goes down, then gets to healing (after making sure the woof is deaded):

channel energy heals:

first: 2d6 ⇒ (5, 2) = 7
second: 2d6 ⇒ (4, 1) = 5
third: 2d6 ⇒ (5, 2) = 7

trade shield of faith and bless for 2 cure light wounds, 1 for me and 1 for fubar:

fubar heal: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (6) + 3 = 9
my heal: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4

So thats 19 hp healed for everyone else, 28 for fubar, 23 for me.

Anyone still hurt?

[Krill Thirstslaken]

Right as rain here.

[Fubar]

"I am nearly fine an have some minor healin o my own I ken use....["

Kicks the wolf...

"Hope this is not tha little one or part o a larger pack, anyone knows if these beast are loners, pairs or packs?"

[Azhateran Slug]

My religion tells me nothing about these things

[Caydee Brunland]

I'll take back DMing, though I may be a little slow for awhile.

Knowledge (nature) 16:

It seems to be a winter wolf, and if a pack hasn't attacked yet it's unlikely one is nearby.

[Fubar]

"If I was tah skin it would yah knows how tah make a coat? Tha days seem colder an colder."

"Jus a little somethin tah keeps tha snowballs off me...."

Laughs heartily, then sets to trying to skin the wolf...

[Azhateran Slug]

...whistles and 'accidentally' tosses a snowball in Fubar's direction..
1d20 + 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 = 22

and gives Karrg his language lesson

[DM Post Ghost]

Roll for critical Snowball!

[Azhateran Slug]

Roll to confirm crit:

1d20 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 2 = 18

HM, probably hits FF AC?
well, crits FF ac :)

[Fubar]

"Oh my eyes!"

Fubar bends forward at the waist holding his hands over his eyes.

Recovering somewhat...

"Snow blindness again!"

"Someone else is gonna avetah finish skinnin this wolf...."

[Azhateran Slug]

Weird, the sudden, direction blizzards here....

[Caydee Brunland]

Caydee rolls her eyes and finishes the chore of skinning the worg.

If it's OK, I was thinking of having the quest to get the corpse be fairly uninterrupted so as to resume the main quest of investigating the iron-man rumors.

[DM Post Ghost]

Fine with me.....

winter wolf was worth 1,600 XP so we need to divide that up and head out under Yucale!
