Isaac may have to run an inter-party conflict resolution seminar re: Karrin's infamous hold. And fill out a lot of insurance paperwork.
It needs to get used at some point in the 4th act is all I'm saying. Doesn't need to get used on a party member, probably not Nari, but it needs to happen to someone for the sake of good story telling.
Heh. heheh,...
<grimaces in painful anticipation,...>
:)
Whee! Busy monkey here giving apologies for my tardiness! I just can't seem to get a handle on my schedule, which is why I am typing this super fast becasue I have YET ANOTHER friggin doctor's appointment to go to. I am ready to forward the storyline this afternoon if I can get a spare second, so stay tuned!
I just hope the dr appt is for a check up, and nothing (too) serious!
:)
Yay for busyness! (It usually keeps me out of trouble. Usually.)
;P
Chekhov's gun.
I sooooooo hope Karrin can pull this off :D
So who's trancing out? Just Merle, Ekuur, Justin and Nari? Do we want to wait on some action from Rhiannon and Stheno before we continue our stand-off? Guards are just picking their noses?
Grrr, and Justin spotted that 'dark look' that dork gave earlier too! Guess He (and I) weren't smart enough to worry about properly! ;P
I'm guessing that he guards are probably stunned into inaction for a few moments. This is one of their trusted leaders basically trying to hand them over to the BBEG. I'll bet they're giving each other blank looks about now,... ;)
Grrr,... if only Justin can wake up fast enough! I'll counter any teleport magic he thinks he might be doing, (Dispel magic) and then he's all yours! :D
Or Karrin's. That should be a good show. Justin and Ekuur can make popcorn. :D
Yeah, I kinda jumped the gun with action. I will retcon Rhiannon and Stheno in when they chime in.
Everyone wakes in 3 rounds. I rolled a group one. The guards are outside the room, so they will take a few rounds to react to the hubbub.
If anyone's looking to drop in on a game, I'm in a really good homebrew campaign Shadowborn is running and we're looking for a replacement PC.
Here's the recruitment thread if you want to check it out.
Hi folks. I just want to say again I am sorry about the slow pace of this game. My life has changed in many a sundry ways since we embarked on this journey four years ago. I find myself holding a 40-hour-a-week job, assuming the responsibilities of the household for my wife who works a 60-hour-a-week job, trying to slim down and exercise, and still do all the other things that life insists upon.
You have all been very patient, and for that I thank you. I hope I can find a better rhythym in my posting, but I doin't think I will ever be in the place where I was back in 2008, working a job where I could work all day on my gaming stuff in between phonecalls and customers. Have faith, and I will keep this game alive, if not as fast-paced as it once was.
Now begins the fun part of Karrin trying to wrap her head around someone giving up a perfectly good elven body while she's been trapped in a tiefling body all these years. Karrin's life hasn't been exactly easy because of her demonic or infernal ancestry (she has recently discovered that she is indeed infernal) and the idea of someone being unhappy with their (so called) normal body is beyond her understanding.
We're here when you are, Pat. Don't worry about it.
Guy phrased it better than I could have. (no matter HOW much I over-wordage everything!) ;P
So +1 from me Pat! I'm just glad to hear that your doing ok! Like the man said, I wish it would update more often, but that's only because it is SUCH fun to be in! You just keep doing what your doing, and we'll hang on for the ride!
And Happy After-Easter to all!
:)
Patrick, while I am more than happy to hand her over as an NPC, if it would be helpful I can continue to run Sanna. Don't want to add to your workload here. Just let me know what you'd prefer.
And I agree about the game being so much fun. It's well worth being patient with a slower pace to keep the story going. :)
Lynora, you can run both if you wish. I know you are well versed in running multiple characters at once
Everyone else thank you for the kind words. A game is only as good as its players, and I will do my part to keep things rolling along. Even if it is only a quick phone update like this one
Sorry been only able to get in momentary posts, off for the next few days, will post tonight
No worries. I have been flat out this week, and I follishly got sucked into a posting blitz elsewhere last night. I will get this ball rolling soonish.
Heh,
Epic battle between the good, the bad, and the BUGly!
Always worth waiting for!
:)
And I am hoping tonight is the night! Whoot!
Just waiting for the map since I'm gonna be chargingaround on horseback.
Yeah. I know its mostly me dragging this whole mess down, and I apologize. The maps are the worst, and trying to squeeze everything in I need to do is also difficult. I tried to get things finished up quickly before my wife came home last night, but I couldn't get everything done.
Now, I should have a nice long stretch of time today and tomorrow. I am going to try and get everythinjg set up, I just want to thank you all again for your patience. Reading on this timeline it has been a freakin YEAR getting this Chysagmir sideline out the door, and that is just sad.
Sorry for my absence, Spent Mothers day loading in and yesterday all day rigging two fly systems (We're doing Aladdin Jr) I'll be busy this week, but I'll try to keep up.
No worries Pat-man! It's all good! :) (And as we have all said before, worth the wait!) :)
*sigh*
Thanks Rags. I am not going to be able to sit down until tomorrow, but I will have some time since my wife has to work another double shift. Thanks for the Patience
hehheh, No worries my friend. I have discovered that Life LUVs being unpredectible.
As you can see, by Justin's VERY poor rolling luck (it was due to run out sometime) Justin will have plenty of time to wait for a while,...
:)
Maybe he can hang around as a ghost and make snarky comments as an invisible observer? ;P
Just wanted to say congrats to James for his part in the Slumbering Tsar. It is a most awesome and terrible tome!
Thanks! Still waiting for my copies, but I hear it looks good!
I will be posting a FB comparision shot with some other tomes
I was reading about that, it looks SO cool. Seriously wish I had that kind of cash to drop at one time. ;(
Gratz James! :D
One thing that being unable to go out at night means is I have disposable cash for gaming goodies.
Looks like this sidequest is finally wrapping up after A YEAR. >.< Again, apologies for that.
Heh, notice the distinct lack of complaining!? :D
It's all good, we're still here! :)
Just want to check in before assigning the next level for Issac- thinking about starting in on the Horizon Walker prestige class. I don't have Knowledge-Geography since distance and geography is unreliable on the planes; would it be okay to replace that requirement with 6 ranks of Knowledge- The Planes (which I do have)? And would it be too much of a stretch to take favored terrain (astral plane)? I figure that's closer to what Yggdrasil would be associated with (and it has some handy benefits for later on). Let me know what you think.
I'm fine With that James. Customize as you like
Isaac's leveled up.
Now what has it gots in it's pockets, precious?
Lol. I am tabulating a list this weekend. Stay tuned!
Lol! I need to get on the ball! I'll level up Justin asap. (Looking for that feat that reduces an opponents resistances (if he has any) vs my fire spells,...) :D
Or maybe it's time that Justin started thinking a little more balanced,... yeah, right. ;P
Nari's level is raised. And I adjusted her equipment to reflect what Sanna took. Gonna have to get that girl some armor soon. :)
Will level Rhiannon asap
No worries. Sorry for the delay, I didn't have a good section of treasure set out. I am currently working on it.
OK loot list:
Crookneck: Boots of Levitation, Headband of vast intellect +2, ring of protection +2, ring of Wizardry II, Scroll: Dominate Person, Scroll summon monster VI, dagger +3, bracers +2
Giggler: Boots of the Winterlands, matched pair of +2 keen short swords
Lady Hel: leather armor +3, +2 long spear, Bottle of Air, 2 bottles of night*
All three wear cloaks of Arachnida
* Bottles of Night: upon impact fills area with magical darkness, 20' radius, 10 round duration. Auto dispells any light spell of 2nd level or lower
Also: Crookneck has a bag of gems. Combined they are worth 10k gold. There is also a combined 5k in miscellaneous non magical jewelry on their persons.
Thank you Monkey man!
Wow. I tend to forget what level we are.
THAT my friends, is a loot list! :)
Alrighty, who needs what the most? There are NO bad items here! :)
As a wizard, I would like to dib on the headband of intellect +2.
I could really use some AC help. Preferably the bracers and the +2 ring of prot. or either of those. Mostly because the spider armor kinda creeps her out.^.^
Aside from that all Nari needs is a set of traveling clothes in her size. She is the least equipment dependent character I've ever played.
Isaac could use a cloak and maybe one of the keen shortswords- though the frost greatsword is pretty beastly in itself.
I guess the longspear is pretty good for fighting from horseback
