Understandable.

@GM: So, are we moving on soon?

I'll get refocused here and continue on. Some questions, invitation to dialogue before that, however: Arlk or Severius still around?
And general feelings on delving into interactions with the crew of the ship? I get the sense that there's not a lot of interest (with a couple of noted exceptions) in hashing out much in the way of socializing there, but just want to get a verdict before I move past it. There can be as much or as little depth to that as people prefer, but it would certainly be more direct to just ask in here if that's something you all are interested in. Or, we can kinda skim over most of that in favor of getting to the combat-heavy leg of the trip.

It's good to hear that the NPCs and game in general will resume.
Tzacol is more interested in speaking with the higher echelons of the ship crew, the expedition staff, and her companions. I'm not opposed to keeping conversation going in gameplay for a while longer, and if anyone wants to push lines of inquiry, I say go for it.

Ooduls is pirate lazy. He’ll do anything interesting that doesn’t feel like work, and he’s not naturally curious. His first tour of the ship was more self preservation and learning his surroundings than curiosity.
Ready for more posting.

Spreading this to all my games:
Sorry guys, planned on some substantial posting today. But upon return from a weekend trip, discovered some house chores that were in desperate need of no longer ignoring. So I’ve been occupied there today. I’ll post something of decent size as soon as life allows. Will continue smaller posts from mobile for now.

Cheers for the heads up, Lo'tan.

I'll probably shift to doing more shortform responses to try to keep things from stagnating. Trying to hold myself to longer posts is resulting in kicking the can too far down the street lately. Wrapping up a long 5e game this weekend, fingers crossed, with a table full of PCs on the cusp of 17th level that has been giving me fits trying to balance meaningful encounters around. Hopefully taking that off the plate will give me more mindspace to work with here, too.

Good luck with your finale. And more regular posts here would be great.

Posting this to all my games, so sorry if you see it multiple times:
This week both my office and I personally are going to be moving. It's been crazy busy and I am not going to be able to post until Monday at the earliest. Please bot me if I am in your game, and if you are in a game I am running, I will get a post up as soon as possible.
Thank you for your patience.

I'm afraid I may or may not post too. My mother just passed away, and I'm afraid my mood is shifting between 'post all the things to keep the brain fugg away' and 'post nothing, screw it'.

I've been ill the last few days.
@Arik, sorry for your loss.

I am posting this to all of my games, so apologies if you see this multiple times:
Unfortunately, I have some bad news.
A combination of work-related stuff has lead to me having to take some time off from the forums. I am, in all honesty, going to need to be gone for several months, as I am going to be travelling for extended periods of time (weeks or more) and I'll likely not have good access to the internet.
As I am not someone who would want to have you all sit and wait for me here, I am going to be withdrawing/closing all of my open forum games.
I want to thank everyone who I have had the pleasure to game with over the last couple of years here, as I have immensely enjoyed my time on the forums, and hopefully, once my work stabilizes, I will be able to rejoin the community.
Thank you again for your time and energy, and I am sorry that I won't be able to keep things moving forward in any of the games that I am running.

And the last few updates were about a month apart. I don't blame you. I'll wait and see if this dies a natural death.
It was fun and sure, see you around.
