Please post your finalized characters here.

One of the things I was noticing is that average+1 hit points keeps things a little lower than I tend to like for this level and some of the things you'll be running into are quite lethal so I think I'm going to ammend things and let you roll your hit points. If you end up rolling lower than average+1 then you still get average + 1 but if you roll higher then you get higher.

I should let you know that I'm not going to be on much this weekend. I have a friend coming to visit this weekend as well as a game tomorrow night. So I think I'm going to throw the game thread up now and get things started. Feel free to post when ever since I didn't see any glaring problems with your characters except that Doran Darok needs to pick out spells yet.

Game play thread is up. Feel free to post as you wish and hopefully there is enough role play possibility to keep you all busy.

present

Ooo didn't realize you were Female polgara...hmm ignore it when the NPC calls you sir lol.

Ready to go

Present and ready to go.

12d8 ⇒ (4, 2, 2, 4, 8, 8, 3, 3, 8, 6, 8, 5) = 61

No worries.

Edit: I get that a lot. ;-)

Here and ready. So many spells i was trying to pick this mornong but work called. I dont need spells to roleplay though. Happy to see harren here too we really will make a good team. Thanks for the chance to play. Lets try a hp roll.

12d8 ⇒ (6, 8, 5, 3, 6, 6, 7, 1, 1, 6, 3, 2) = 54

Here. Sorry for the wait.

11d8 + 1d10 ⇒ (8, 2, 8, 7, 1, 7, 4, 4, 8, 7, 6) + (2) = 64

new total: 111

I've got stuff to do, so I'll have my character updated with HP total and ranged flurry bonuses sometime soon.

Sorry, didn't see the posts in there. I also haven't gotten around to fixing things yet. I haven't gotten but a few minutes here and there to be online, so I haven't had the time.

I'm getting my spell list together now, tough it's subject to change a bit once we have an in character discussion of what may need to be covered.

Just curious, did the reaver resist my dismissal or did it just die before I got the spell off properly?

It just died before you got the spell off properly. That zen archer is nasty...

Clearly. :-)

I did build him to be.

I think max summons seemed pretty sweet too. Considering two of them crit. It went our way for sure. Well except for me.

What's a little bit funny to me is that I used my "right spell at the right time" power so that it probably would have disappeared anyway on round 2 anyway. However, It didn't have time to get dismissed before it died a grisly death. On the upside now they have a retriever corpse to study. As it was called and not summoned it's body won't disappear to be resummoned later. ;-)

yeah the summons also f#&%ed it up pretty good lol. And to think that was an advanced retriever at that lol. Extra hitpoints, extra ac, +2 for every die roll...none of it mattered in the end lol. Actually it did because the +4 AC saved its butt a few times...so it could have died quicker.

Anyone home?

Just waiting myself.

hey guys sorry for the long delay. Got hit by a car on Tuesday and have been in the hospital since. Dislocated my knee, broke my tibia and fibula, and fractured my ankle all on my left side as well as scraped up my left arm pretty good. The foot was 90 degrees out of socket when I got to the ER Wednesday. They decided as they were relocating it for the second time that it would also be a good time to pick the shards of glass out of my arm...

Had surgery yesterday to place a plate and some screws in my foot and am on the mend. Got up and walked with a walker today for the first time since Wednesday. Going to be hopefully going to rehab on Monday if we can find a place that has beds otherwise there sending me home. 6 weeks of no weight on my left leg and no driving.

Not sure what my posting schedual is going to be like. I'm borrowing my girlfriends laptop as we speak to finally get you guys an update and if I go to rehab I might see if my mom can bring me my laptop so I can get things moving again.

Thanks for your patience and prayers.

Wow. That really sucks. Glad you're recovering. Take all the time you need.

Yikes. Sounds nasty. Hope you get better soon

Outch. Sorry to hear that. No worries about the game. Take your time. We'll be here when you're better.

Just wanted to just drop by and give everyone an update. I am going to be released to my house today. I'm doing well enough on the walker that I won't be needing to go into a live in rehab place at all. 2 weeks and I'll be in a removable boot and then 6 weeks and I'll be learning to walk again.

The bad part is that I don't have internet at the house and don't know how often I'm going to be able to get out to the libraries now. Not supposed to drive for at least another 6 weeks if not longer. I'll get back when I can to give you updates.

Had a doctors appointment today so I was able to talk my fiancee into taking me to the library after the appointment. Things are starting to heal and if the tingling in my foot is any indication the nerve damage I suffered won't be permanent...needs to hurry up and fix its self though because the pins and needles feeling gets really old especially at 2 AM when you're trying to sleep.

Going in next Monday to get the "cast" off and getting fitted for a walking boot. Still won't be able to walk for another 4 weeks but they want me to be able to shower and for the wounds to properly be taken care of so the boot makes that much easier. Getting more moble every day and I've pretty much mastered my walker.

Glad to know you're getting better.

Good to hear, Mathpro.

Glad your getting better DM.

DM Mathpro checked in on a few of his other threads, but not in this one, it seems. He's doing better, but it's gonna be another 2 weeks unti he can get here reliably again.

Hey guys. Just wanted to give you a heads up that I should be on on a much more regular basis now. I have been given the all clear to start walking and driving so that means I can start getting online again.

Still having some moderate pain and swelling but now that I'm walking on it again its to be expected. Should be off the walker by Friday but we will see...foot still feels a little unstable for that.

You may want to PM the players. My dot certainly dropped. IN any case, good to hear that you're back.

Good to hear you're back.

Good to see at least a few people have seen my PMs so far. We're still waiting on who, our Gnome and Dwarf buddies to check back in?

I am in.

I'm in training for work for the next couple weeks. I'll be slow at posting. Feel free to npc me as needed.

Just so you guys know I'm going to be in training for a new job I start tomorrow so I don't know how often I'm going to be able to post...I'll still try to get on daily it just depends on my training schedule.

Doesn't look like I'll be able to be on again until Wednesday or Thursday but I will try my best to change this if possible. I have a very busy work schedule and a funeral to attend on Tuesday. Might be able to sneak on after the funeral but we will see.

It's all good, Mathpro. Sorry to hear about the funeral.

Thanks Zantis...

Shall we call time of death?
