DDEX 01-08: Tales Trees Tell [5e Adventurers League] (Inactive)

Game Master Aeshuura

This is the thread for discussions outside of gameplay.

Rakish is ready.

Nice! Miss Raina... She was the one you played in my Sokol Keep run,

right?

Yeah. She's level 4 now! Coastal Druid. Still carries around an oar to whack people with. :)

Nice. She shillelagh that sucker to wollop them good?!?

Hey Rakish, Aeshuura. Good to play with you again.

Dax! Good to see Raeva back in action!

Lovely to meet you all. I'm sure we'll have quite the adventure together; perhaps running from treants?

I hope so! I've got a shiny new axe to try on some trees!

I love how Krishina revels in her tieflingness while Raeva is a bit ashamed of his.

Late, didn't know this started already.

I think we're waiting for Monday to officially start. Everything in the gameplay thread is all just introductions.

Don't know what happened to Luke, but I am going to move forward.

Heads up that I'm away for a personal emergency the next few days and might have limited access to the internet. Please bot my character if necessary.

Hope it's not too bad, all the best.

I hope all is well, and will bot you if necessary.

Alysha will stay out of trouble and ray of frost enemies. If things are getting hairy she'll cast shatter or Magic Missile.

You're right. It is max damage. I must have transcribed it wrong when I wrote I down. Heck, it's even on my log sheet correctly, I just wrote it wrong in my attack stat block.

Ah, I thought so, I have my Valor Bard Squire that ended up with the axe and breastplate from LMoP. But, for story purposes, we decided that he "died" so that is why his brother is in the Tomb of Annihilation (which I am running, and my friend is playing the brother.)

Hi folks.

I'm the only player in this AL game. We have to start at level 1, and we need some more players. It's fast pace, likely combat only and very minimal roleplay.

Would love for one or two of you to join me. :)

Tomb of Annihilation

I've got a level 1 Tortle Barbarian, with plans to go ancestor barb.

Kinda busy this weekend. I will try to post something tomorrow, but might not be until nighttime. Sorry!

Hit points and AC corrected.

If someone can get me up, I can magic missile these buggers so their displacement won't work.

I believe Radiance of the Dawn inflicts half damage on a successful saving throw, which should disrupt the beasts "displacement", so the subsequent attacks by the rest wouldn't be at disadvantage.

Except that they have an ability called Avoidance that allows them to save for none. I double and triple checked that it was not only for Dexterity-based attacks, like evasion, but it says ANY attack that allows a save. Super nutso!

I hope that you guys survive this... I always say that, though, and you guys always manage to pull through! I have faith in you guys! Beast two has his disadvantage down now, so you guys can chase it off, at least!

Ouch.. that sucks. Maybe our ranger could also help during the combat? And our lovely pixie friend.. :P

I can dash in and throw a heal on you, can't guarantee you won't fall back over quickly though.

The beast seems distracted with Rakish, so maybe?

Ouch.. that sucks. Maybe our ranger could also help during the combat? And our lovely pixie friend.. :P

The more help you have the more you split XP. If you all are good with that, I will include them.

Yeah, these things are a pain in the but, you want a quick and sure way to take them down? A party of nothing but level 4 magic missiling draconic sorcerers. One preferably having a wand of magic missiles.

That works too...

Thanks Krissina!

Since Alysha's init is right before the beasts, she'll always ready an action to magic missile them after they attack. Hope that works.

Gonna wait a bit for Raeva. I am on Oahu for my birthday weekend, so I may be a little slow on posting.

Happy birthday!

We weren't waiting on Raeva. He had a post right between me and Shoun. Two above your last post.

Doh! Don't know how I missed that!

DDEX 1-08: Tales Trees Tell
Date: 12/14/2017
DM: Noel Mock (6203763429)
XP gained: 658
Gold gained: 80 gp, 8 sp, 3 cp
Downtime: 10
Renown: 1 (Emerald Enclave gains 1 additional)

You find that the cloak that Jeny gave Alysha is a cloak of elvenkind with the additional properties:

This supple light green cloak embroidered with a delicate leaf pattern makes the wearer feel comfortable whenever worn, suffering no harm from temperatures as cold as 0 ̊ F or as warm as 120 ̊ F.

You can decide amongst yourselves if Alysha keeps it or it gets given to another character. (Lowest Magic Item count gets priority.)

I'll pass on the magic item.

Kris has no magic items, but she's not going to take an old lady's cloak from her.

We can always roleplay it that Alysha gives it to Krissina, Because you look cold, dearie. ;)

Alysha doesn't want the cloak and has a magic item already. She'll pass on it. Anyone else interested in it?

I'll take it, though if someone who actively uses Stealth would prefer it, I'll let it go. Kris can be quiet and stealthy, but doesn't often choose to be.

Thank you for running the game!

You got it! So, who's going to run the next one?!? ;)

Thanks for running.

You got it! So, who's going to run the next one?!? ;)

Any requests? Do we have enough for a tier 2?

Raeva just made level 3. Have no particular requests.

Got 2 level 4's (once I level up Krissina) but not hit Tier 2 yet.

Skyreaver is Tier 2 (just made 5 in fact). Shoun also just levelled (but only to 4)

Anyone who is level 4 may auto advance to level 5 (see the AL players guide).

Rakish just hit 5th.

They need to use 20 dt days to do so.

I got a tier 2 valor bard (squire)!

Oh, in that case I could level up Krissina then.
