? Tark... What would me the ramifications of Drovalid checking the health of his victims? The whole purpose of torture is not to kill the victim but to get a confession out of him. If so would it be better in the eyes of the audience to hold him on the cusp of life by repeatedly reviving him or let him expire. Was wondering if it would be within reason to bring Pollux back conscious if he passes out with a potion or would it have to be done stealthily? Your interpretation of the torture please.
Good wristwork there Tin-man! You have a real future in human resources.
I'm going to rule that yes, yes you may do exactly that. It would be highly unprofessional for Drovalid to allow his subject to expire on the rack.
Thanks Tark as I was hoping that would be the case. I will revive him after the next lashings.
Just wanted to let you know I am around and keeping up.... just not posting anything since I don't have any lines till act 3
When are we suppose to post our acting rolls again? After our last line or just before the start of the next act?
At the end of each act.
I say post the Perform(acting) any time you want to have fun. Get a good roll - say that you are playing to the audience and making Thesing look like a fool. Get a bad roll - you stumbled over your lines while watching Calseinica's cleavage.
Do we get any bonuses to our perform rolls?
Oh yeah, gonna be out from thursday to sunday visiting my miserly old bastard of a granddad before he goes bonkers and forget how awkward he made every family gathering with his excessive drinking and starting arguments.
*glances around*
Okay, okay, so I made my cleric exactly like my granddad, except hotter, with big t*ts. Sue me. :P
Imam hoping they are serving alcohol so the crowd is drunk by the time i have to roll.my die. That way they won't remember much and hopefully reduce the dc.
I think I forgot to roll a performance check after act 1.
Happy 2,000th post Nobles :) - I've talked to Tark and as a special bonus present, he's going to give us a gift in game!
Said gift is watching Thesing smirk as we writhe in pleasure / agony as we apply flukes to our body then have to cut them out with a knife... but hey, it's the thought that counts right?
We're pushing on 2400 and all he gave us was a beating :(
STD's borne from the infernal depths for everyone!
I thought that was just a bonus for lazarod from Ilsandra.
Pollux make sure you wash with holy water before and after. Be careful dear, you don't want to get sick.
STD's borne from the infernal depths for everyone!
Ow, it burns like hell.
Just letting everyone know that I've opened recruitment for a skull and shackles game for anyone interested.
Thanks for running this game and hope to be a part of the skull and shackles game as well. Good luck finding time to run all of the games.
S&S is awesome fun so far.
Delighted I got into a group for it, totally worthwhile.
Aerieth points at Bloodless and shakes her head.
Don't listen to him - damn do-gooder ex-navy punk. He's gonna be shark bait before long.

There's not a lot do-gooder about Cedrick...
Good to know that you folks are enjoying the good ship Voiceless... now if only that good fer nothin DM pulled his finger out and updated more often :P
Its the Love Boat fo' realz.
Ah, despite claiming to have no voice, that DM ain't that bad. He's actually pretty good at updating twice a day at least. Mind you he and that strange ex-navy dude seem to have day and night all bass ackward as they keep making "morning" posts in the evening and "evening" posts in the morning. But I can overlook minor signs of insanity like that.
Awww - swells my heart with pride to hear it... just for that I'm going to cripple a seabird and leave it somewhere you can find it as a treat!
OOh, loveboat. Man, i could totally make a really agreeable character for one of tark's campaigns and have it be opposite campaign :P
Mmmm, crippled seabird tastes great, pluck the feathers and then put it on a spit. Eventually I will find me one that can fly again.
Isn't it nice being an evil druid.
<---- Sunderstone/Meraxilar
Tark, I have this fallen (i.e. non-working Pally abilities) dex-based Paladin available for skull and shackles. It was created for Carrion Crown but the pbp fizzled out at the beginning.
I can change part of my history/traits to accommodate S&S if it's not too late to apply.
Late Edit*** I should add I know nothing of S&S. I havent had time to even open the last UPS delivery (part 3 was it?). I downloaded the player's guide but also never got around to reading it yet.
I also have a Gnome Druid with a fear of fire, well suited for the high seas I imagine. :)
Posted as this druid, ignore my CC Pally. I didnt read your initial recruitment guidelines until now.
I still need to read the player's guide and pick a campaign trait.
I promise never to bore you guys with roundabout conversations about blatant ingame abuses through strawman npc's unless it fits well with the narrative (i.e. I'm trying to figure out when's the best time for Arael or Janiven to confront Asmodia about her issues with the League). That's just plain silly and never gets the message across.
I will however sick the ghosts of your past on you. They will be unpleasant. And more fun.
Eh? They have problems with me? I thought I was healin' 'em and doing nice things for churches that were friendly with Iomedae like Abadar. You want legitimate gubberment in town, you need funds, and Abadar has like... all the gold.
Asmodia is chaotic as hell, but since the party has been basically ignoring her and seems to misunderstand most everything she says, I guess I figured she was getting ignored from now on.
Shoulda asked them for a workshop for enchanting stuff too. Boo on me.
You did just remind me I have to resolve that issue with the gold too. Thanks.
Tark - a little surprised no-one's come up with the correct answer to your last question... which is of course "GET THEM!!" followed by the entry of drums and guitars.
We came across a strange device
A mystic portal into another time
Where vikings ruled the land and sea
Such mighty treasure they did hold
We killed them all to steal their gold!
You put your faith in Odin and Thor
We put ours in cannons and whores
Your viking gods won't save you now
When pirates strike from the starboard bow
Back through time
To fight the viking foe
Back through time
Where our voyage must now go
Six hundred years into the past
Our destiny is here at last
For infamy and plunder we will ride
Their ships were powerless against our cannonfire
We took no prisoners that day. Yarrr.
The vikings prayed for mercy as we cut their throats
But their worthless gods did not hear their cries
I know right!?
My daughter always makes me play 'Captain Morgans Revenge' in the car.
Shifty - that makes me think of my three year old asking for "Viking Music" in the evenings :)
I'll post after I get off work.
Just letting everyone know that I've opened recruitment for a skull and shackles game for anyone interested.
Crew looks a a tad full but I threw a Wizard, Ryzern, into the mix. The book jockies look to be the least suited class for a water based AP but I am a glutton for punishment.
It's Polluxpalooza in the Nobles thread! :)
Somebody fed the monkey coffee.
Bloodless is busy becoming an 80's WWF Heel character.
man, i loved Razor Ramon as a kid. and the bushwhackers.
I also watched American Gladiators, too...
*strokes chin*
Asmodia needs a Randy Savage so she can be Miss Elizabeth... coz sequin halter dresses are hawt :P
But for the man with the most 'roids, my vote goes to the Ultimate Warrior.
Just to let you all know that I will be gone from July 9 through July 15 with no Internet access. Will be in the boundary waters area in others Minnesota. Go ahead and DMNPC for me. Thanks.
Hopefully this doesn't exclude me from the s&s game you plan on running Tark. If there is anything I can do ahead of time to keep me in contention please let me know.
God that was a lot of typing I just did. You being gone shouldnt hurt your chances too much. We'll see how it goes.
Hey tin-man! You only took damage for the successful check. Strangely enough an incopetent surgeon with a high enough con can merilly cut for hours and only suffer the Con damage. A minor fluke of the rules.
<rim shot!>
