Katlin's active in other recruitment threads, but not responding here or to PMs. I've specified via PM that if no posts or responses are given by Sunday Night, I'll be removing her character from the game.
Wanted to mention. When Ikit gets to the library etc, he will copy as many extract viable spells as possible =^^=
Yes yes. Many zappy zappy things in magic books!

@Ikit - Hmm that is right, alchemists can also use it. Feel free to do so : )
@Anyone wanting to sleep in armour - I put the Bed of Iron spell on rotation, so we don't get nibbled by wolves again. Feel free to sleep in platemail if you want : )
Can't contribute to magic users unfortunately.... but will help where I can.... like this tree we might fight. I have the concentrate bomb extract. Will just prepare it and bomb the living daylights out of the tree.
I have the explosive discovery. So a direct hit will cause it to catch fire. Extra d6 fire damage each turn =^^=

I am very okay with that division of duties. Fhârn has Evocation as an opposed school, so if you would take care of the 'death by fire' parts I'd appreciate it : )
Well. Fire is good. Also have sonic damage =^^= for those pesky fire resistant beasties. And if I do get a direct hit, deafened for a few rounds. Flash bang without the flash :P
I will keep it quiet for now what I will be able to do at level 8.... 0:)

Thanks, Gorruum has Endurance, so he'll be all right, but I'm sure others will appreciate it.
@ Fharn (can't make strange signs :p)
Thanks but i only have light armor so i don't need it
@Ikit - Burny is nice yes :)
@Gorruum - No worries, I think about 50% of the medium and above armour users have Endurance :P
@Natalie - No worries. I realized that it is slightly annoying, so it is totally okay (and understandable!) to skip : ) (but if you are using an US keyboard, google says that the "^" sign is shift+6 : ) )
I just copy/paste it. Fhârn that is.
I just realized, she probably sees a LGM behind us.
@ Fharn
I'm on a danish keyboard, and sometimes I'm answering over the phone so to keep et consistant i keep skipping the sign over the a :)
@Anastacia - Little Green Man?
@Natalie - Det var nära ... : )
Correct. Usually found in UFOs, but not in this case. :)
I've asked our first alternate, LittleHwy (Corwen Surefoot) if they are still interested.
We'll assume Katlin stays with the dryad for now, and eventually makes it back to civilized lands without the group being involved.
Underaged wizardess on the way out, and adult elf rogue inbound.
Everyone welcome LittleHwy when he's able to post.
Another pointy-ear! yes yes!
@ Anastacia
I don't think Milgen is a little green man proberly medium or even large :p
Hi folks - just in the process of updating Corwen, should have him up and ready to go in no time. Mechanically he's somewhat similar to Natalie, so I dare say they might end up as great friends, great rivals, or both! Looking forward to playing in a solid game, so thanks for having me :)
Welcome pointy ear man! Hi hi!

@ Littlehewy
We just have to see where the story takes us. But for now welcome to the campaign, might have a flank buddy now who is just as interrested in flanking as I am. :)
The two of you will dance the Dance of Death surrounded by fire
-Posted with Wayfinder
Flank buddies ahoy!
Nearly finished updating...
Welcome : )
Welcome!
Welcome to the game, Corwen. :)
Hello Corwen. Welcome to our madness. :D
Welcome! Just a reminder, I might disappear for a week or two (maybe three). Ship transport has been delayed so I've been lucky to stick around this long after my last notice. If the DM approves I'm willing to take my absence now to escort Katlin back to civilization and return to the group later or be NPC'ed.
@Rowan - That might be a good approach, and works well from both a story and OOC perspective.
Ill try not to burn forest down while youre away ;) promise! Yes yes!
-Posted with Wayfinder
I'll be watching him for you Rowan.
Did the trees take an AoO moving away from me?
Like Gorruum, the trees can move unhindered by the swampy terrain, so the one to the south only did a 5 ft adjust, therefor no AoO. The one to the north wasn't in your range.
Issues like this that made me decide to research the Terraform spell in the future. If I turn all landmass into a sticky bubblegum-like substance, everyone will be equally inconvenienced by it : P
Except us, your soon to be avian overlords! Cawhawhawhaw!
Moving the OOC discussion in here to cut down on the chatter in the gameplay thread.
To the south was the x3 movement swampy water, given he'd have to go around all the people that were to the south at the time, add on the 10ft per brown square and the 15ft per green square, and it gets really hard to move in one round, even on a horse, more than 25-30 ft.
Yea, entirely possible as I was just quick eyeballing it at work while waiting for some code to compile. C'est la vie.
I do agree about the mortality thing. :) You have been playing him rather 'I'm invincible!' :)
Give a 20 year old magical self healing in spades, incredible saves, armor like a tank (in setting) and a horse and it seems like a likely outcome. Pile on a bit of pride, a penchant for stories where the hero always wins, and the normal disregard for mortality by youth to compound the issue.
On an unrelated note, I believe Felicia is technically only up after Wilhelm, so a retcon might be handy for a little selective channel with a Lay on Hands/Hammertime followup. :P
Possibly, although it appears the fire really hurt the tree, so getting it down this round might be more beneficial. All depends on the die rolls.
Ah, looking at the map, I see that the fire is over by the dead tree. Ignore my above post.
Since a lot of people are unfamiliar with my GM style...
Initiatives rolled every round. (I do this in home games too)
You don't have to wait on other people to post your actions, unless you want to wait and see what they do first.
Botted people (like Dante) go after posting folks.
I'll generally average init's for the enemies so it's a PCs/Enemy/PCs each round. I reserve the right to not do that if it doesn't make sense. Boss battles for example, in which case it's usually mooks & boss. Or if there's a group of bad guys with +10 init and annother group with -2.
ON a related note, Dante hasn't posted on any of his alias's in almost 3 weeks. I'll be up front that I've had a bad experience with him before last year (he quit posting in a game I was running and didn't quit or respond to PM's about it). So what should I do, since you've played with him a lot longer than I have? Is this a common thing with him?
mdt, I'm thinking the way I'll handle Gorruum and Ubagub is the way I did this combat. As you've said, if they are mounted, they will be on the same initiative. If they are separate, I will plan to have them go in initiative order unless there is a good reason for one or the other to delay and I will announce that if doing so. I will try to post them at the same time unless it seems like there is a good chance that the one's actions will impact the other as it did in this fight.
That works fine, I expect most people will do the same with familiars, etc. Feel free to have them synch up too, if you want. They can do that. Sometimes getting that hit in fast is worth having to split up your actions.
@Dante - Hmm. Hopefully he will be back (last post I could find was the 11th of march) so maybe he is just pre-occupied. Nevertheless, without him we are 9 (if I counted correctly) which ought to be sufficient for two groups, so I'd say give him some more time. But then again, I havn't played with him much before : )
@Dante: He has always been a bit intermittent, but this is definitely one of the longest times that we've had so far. I think we'll be ok with the groups we have now for the time being. Let's keep going and see how it goes.
Edit: I suppose that answers that question. :)
It did, didn't it : )
@Anastacia - Given the nature of the critter, it doesn't feel too unlikely that it would bring up the continual flame thing on its own : )
This creature is a lantern archon, a small outsider celestial that are usually very friendly and eager to help wherever they can.
I clicked on Corwen's spoiler, because I made the DC.
Anastacia is not commenting about it, because it really doesn't seem that unusual to her.
Leaving you to interparty RP for now. Let me know when you're ready to return to the Dryad's glen.
@mdt/Fort Saves - Am I correct in assuming they are the same as usual - aka Munin does not need one? Or have the other animals started to bother him once he got his collar ?
@Identify - Fhârn can exchange his Crafter's Fortune for Identify one day and make the following roll on the Robe:
Nope, Munin doesn't need one.
The robe appears to be a robe of bones, but it's actually a cursed robe of vermin.
Splendid!
Most excellent. A robe of bones would clash with our dear cleric, but this we could actually use!
Say ... A gift to our esteemed neighbours to the east? *rubs hands together*
