Are you BTK yet, Dingus?
Hey Jim. Watcha going to do?
I'm back!
Hey Jim. Watcha going to do?
Something, once I have an uninterrupted chunk of time to catch up and think. Hoping for this weekend.
And not this weekend, either. I'm still waiting to find out if I got the job, and that's been distracting--it's supposed to start Tuesday, but no word yet.
oh, I imagine. Good Luck!
Hey Jim. If you don't have time for a full post, can you give me a brief synopsis or intention, please?
If Jim took the gladiator in front of him down, Dingus would switch his attack to the other one.
Good luck!
Stay safe hombre!
I'll put in a good word with Besmara to spare ye!
Best wishes for riding this storm out.
I'll probably be pretty distracted for the next few days; my daughter and her husband had a fire in their apartment. They were both at work so at least they're OK. Their cat didn't survive, though, and there was a lot of damage. No idea how it started.
Ah man Jimmer - sounds awful. Poor mogglin also :(
Sorry to hear, Jim.
The only consolation is that the cat was passed out in another room and died of smoke inhalation in his sleep.
Wow. It's been rough news for the crew lately. Sorry that happened, Jim. I hope they will be OK.
They have very good renter's insurance, so there's that. My wife and I are also in a position to give them lots of support as needed.
Ahoy, Jim. How is your family doing?
And how are you, Dingus? Did you weather the storms ok?

Thanks for asking. No problem. Power out for about 3-hours... but that's it.
Thanks for asking. They're still pretty shellshocked, but getting back into some kind of routine. I'm still catching up after taking time off from work to help them.
I imagine it's hard to recover from a fire like that. Did they ever figure out what happened? The closest I ever came to a house fire was a plug in rechargeable battery igniting. Fortunately, we were home and saw the flash from the next room.
The investigator hired by the apartment's insurance company was unable to determine the exact cause, just that it started inside their second bedroom. They had some appliances plugged in (lamp, paper shredder, 3d printer, printer wash unit), but everything was shut off and none of it had internal batteries.
At least now that the investigator has finished they can get their renter's insurance folks and the recovery people in to start itemizing losses for their claim. They're staying with his father for the time being--probably through the winter.
uff. that's rough. here's hoping recovery goes smoothly and they can get back home sooner than expected.
Happy Halloween! Maybe we'll get a post this weekend, Jim. Huh,Huh ? :)
I hope so--the GameDay special is running long. They should've wrapped up by the 26th, but they still have one fight left.
Despite how slowly we've been going lately (sorry about that), we're currently running 9th in number of gameplay posts, and 3rd among active campaigns.
Also, with playing House GM for two specials (among other things) I broke 45,000 total posts to the boards yesterday.
Oooft. That's some big ol numbers Jimmer - congrats!
Firmly inside the top 10 is testament to the Skipper and us all lads - kudos to all.

That's a crazy number of posts, Jim. I think you are accelerating!
Since that Agartha mess imploded, I believe we're prob the longest running campaign on the boards now : ) Thanks for hanging around, mates!
If Kaul is truly gone would this be a good time to discuss converting to 5e or better yet Pathfinder 2e?

Sheesh. Nothing is resolved yet. Let's see how this plays out.
Ahoy. How is everyone? Super busy? I know it's the holiday season but we're really close to resolving this encounter. Maybe a final push before end of the year if folks are able to post more regularly in the next couple weeks? Thoughts?
I should be able to manage that.
I'm keen but currently dead men don't tell tales or have much to post lol.
This has been another busy week at work, and I'll be out of town this weekend. After that I'll have more time, though.
Looks like that raise dead potion came just at the right time. Phew. I think 'scouting ahead' is the leading cause of death for rogues.
Are you all returning to the Bloody Fortune or resting in place? No rush. Thanks for wrapping up that encounter quickly.
and Happy Holidays, All!
I'd say returning to the Bloody Fortune makes sense. Kaul especially can heal up, and we can inform the captain of any plans we come up for revisiting Lixi and company.
I agree, although when we don't come back right away the Lixys may check the Fortune first. Did Svetesky get away?
Aye back to the Fortune to plot some bloody vengeance...
Happy Festives ya filthy animals!

Ho! Ho! Ho! An' a bottle o' eggnog!
Likewise, all! Hope you're enjoying the holiday!
Happy New Year shipmates - here's to another year of misadventure upon the high (and low) seas for us all.
All the best for 2025 BD
Running with ramifications of Kauly's Flatliners experience... keeping it vague but glooomy.
Please update your spell list, Corliss.
I take it that you used 3 endure elem and a lesser restoration for the ritual.

I'll try to get to that later today. I assumed we'd wait another day after the restoration ritual to engage the Lixies so Corliss would be at full strength. I'm also waiting to see if any of the crew has any requests/suggestions for what spells Corliss ought to prepare the morning of the confrontation.
It doesn't sound like the others are in the mood to wait so happy to handwave that you prepped whatever is suggested. I think prob prot from evil will be the only request.
Oi. Fix your spells, Corliss!
I'll try to get caught up later today or by tomorrow. Have been under the weather and crazy busy with work stuff.
OK, finally caught up on spells prepared. As for the erin-nos, are they armed at all?
