Control The City! (Inactive)

Game Master D-Kal

From an in-character perspective, we don't know about a fifth member. No worries, either way. Her bluff ain't stupendous but she should be able to catch any b#%%#$#+ going on early. Crystal will not complain should you choose to go.

No, I know that from an in-character perspective, we have no clue if they are only 4 or if they are a million... But that is why I am not bringing it up in the Gameplay thread.
I don't want Victor, Fate or You to bring some kind of comment like: "Yes, Imaginary enemies are the worst, truly so" :P

But I'm just pointing out that we haven't kept a good eye on the place... A lot of stuff could have happened while we weren't around.
I'm just saying a lot of stuff, because I know that in the end, even if we made a plan involving 100 possible scenarios, they could still do a Sarcon-move and say "LET'S PEE ON IT!"... *Writes down scenario 101*
This is just all me being a bit of a worrisome person :)

I hear ya. But planning stuff to death on PbP takes quite some time. Decide what you're going to do and let's do this! :)

If I have the Armor, I am going to take an indirect part of your meeting by having a talk with the Innkeeper before the actual meeting and then finding a place to keep an eye on the Tavern.

If I haven't gotten it yet, then I will take part of fortifying the keep. :)

Has Armor? 1=no, 2=yes: 1d2 ⇒ 2

Nice, then I will write in the Gameplay what Marcello does...

Should I also write it in the rule the City?

Not unless you're intentionally interacting with a hero.

Haven't heard anything from Melaphi yet...they about ready over there?

Done... hope that it is used correctly.

Full disclosure: I currently have no weapons or armor equipped.

Sarcon, do you want to roll stealth or disguise or something? Or are you just going to wave to Melaphi as he passes through the 2nd level?

does my uniform count?

What?!

What happened to letting the meeting go peacefully between the two?

Why does everybody and their mother want to mess up a perfectly good plan?

Ah, who am I trying to fool. I want to be there as well.

I am letting it happen peacefully... if they don't start anything that can hurt Crystal...

Crystal seems to fare well against the sly Oracle...

So, what is our plans for Sarcon at this little dinner at friday?

Do we tie him to the chair and gag ball him?

To ensure that he doesn't cause trouble...that is.

you can try

So if I wanted to post that Marcello was standing watch outside in front of the Tavern as the meeting is happening, do I do it here or at the Rule the City?

I don't want to ruin the flow they have going.

Ideally you would have posted that before the meeting started, but yes, Rule the City is the appropriate place for anything not obscured from the heroes (such as standing around outside where at least one would see you on his way in).

Crystal, if you're looking for something out that window, you can roll perception.

It's just an aimless gaze, to break eye contact for a moment. But, since you're bringing it up...

Perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22

If someone wants to know what the symbol on the Armor is, the Order of the Nail symbol, what is the knowledge roll? Geography? Local? Nobility?

And seeing as it isn't exactly an unknown order, the DC can't be that high...
What are your thoughts on that?

Nobility seems appropriate. And yes, I can't imagine the DC would be that high. The standard DC for recognizing known symbols, I believe, is 10.

I'll add that.

Anything on that perception roll, good sir? Or is it in process?

[Cranking sound of an old rusty computer.]

Victor, are you in the throne room? If so, I requested a perception check from you.

So Sarcon, what did happen with those half-orcs you rounded up?

-Posted with Wayfinder

oh yeah...

uh, stress test of the multitaking capabilities of the robominions.

yeah, that sounds good.

perception : 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20

Let's see if this works...

Is there any reason for me to post in the Rule thread before Melaphi moves out?

-Posted with Wayfinder

SEAHAWKS!!!

That is all.

Solid reason...

Thanks for the input Sarcon.

np.

DM, can we upgrade our robominions as time goes on?

i hope crystal and mel are about to enter the my room... that would be awesome.

Equal parts of awesome and terrifying.

-Posted with Wayfinder

I was curious about that, since you should be spending most of your time lurking on the second floor. Some kind of random roll to determine would probably be in order.

I'm kind of curious about Mr. Shadow Man, myself.

So am I... I have literally no clue.

-Posted with Wayfinder

I was wondering who it could be, heck, it sounds like it could be Victor, but.... You know, he is in the Keep.

DM-Kal, that better not be de Wensu about to Vampire me before I get my freak on! :P

Won't that be the next level?

-Posted with Wayfinder

Technically, yes. Just a joke, anyhow. Maybe it's an assassin sent to kill the high priestess, and she and the good oracle will have to work together to defeat him, creating a life-long bond between the two. Their eyes will meet, sparks will fly, then she'll brand him.

I have read your profile, I know what that means... Can I beat him?

-Posted with Wayfinder

I'm working out a robominion upgrade plan. I don't have anything solid yet.

i hope crystal and mel are about to enter the my room... that would be awesome.

This hadn't even occurred to me. I suppose I should roll.

Crystal's room: 1d8 ⇒ 3
Sarcon's hiding spot: 1d8 ⇒ 1

No pressure on the robominions.... hmm, my phone didn't know that word before I typed it...

At any rate, you don't need an upgrade plan before we are about to level, up... and seeing as there is another non-combat event even before we quest.

-Posted with Wayfinder

There's actually a good chance I'll level everyone up after this weekend's quest. There's been plenty of non-quest encounters.

Does a little dance

Well then I look forward to full template! :)
