I'll be traveling for US Thanksgiving for the next couple of days, and slow to post.

Maximum Overdrive

I'll try to get Svarog leveled by end of Sunday here. Thanks for your patience!

Sounds good.

Jarrek, I saw you'd updated to 5th level--could you go over what you did, and roll your HP here?

It gets max starting HP.

Good call (and no surprise) on the favored enemy. There are still a few orcs to go through, but this isn't the Orcslayer AP.

I have family in the hospital - please bot me if necessary.

Certainly. Good luck, and hoping for the best outcome.

I may not have the opportunity to post now until the New Year. I don't know what my connectivity will be like, or how often I'll have the time to get on-line. Bot me if you need to - I don't know how active the game will be over the holidays.

I'm good with suspending the game until after the turn of the year, since you're about to start a fairly tough fight and I'd rather not do that with botting 40% of the party.

That sounds good, wouldn’t want to get into a big encounter and not have someone available.

See you all in the new year!

Have a safe holiday season everyone!

I hope everyone had a decent set of holidays. Please check in when you're ready to resume.

Thank you! I hope you did as well. I'm ready whenever everyone else is.

Survived the family for another year! At the ready whenever.

Jarrek, Svarog, and Haftor?

I'm still dealing with family in the hospital and an injury, so I won't mind if you bot Svarog if I don't manage to post on time, but I'm here and I'll do my best to keep up.

Thanks for the update, and hoping for the best resolution in your situation.

Sorry, we got held up returning from the UK with a family member that got COVID (very mild) so we couldn't fly back on schedule. Ready to roll.

Glad it was a mild case. We're just waiting for Jarrek to check in, then.

Sorry, I've been slow getting back on the boards! I'm here!

My work office flooded a bit today, so I haven't had a lot of spare time. I'll get a post up tomorrow.

I’ll post in the morning! Been a long day at work

No problem! I've had a few of those lately, too.

I'm out of town until Saturday, if Seamus' turn comes up he'll bomb away, excluding his allies from the blast radius of the explosive bombs.

Busy day today, and I won't have a chance to post until late tomorrow evening. Unfortunately, the next game post will be too long to compose on my phone.

Work has been busy the past few days, and I was also closing out a PFS game for NostalgiaCon and starting one up for Outpost V. I should have a bit more time the rest of the week.

I've dropped off from PFS for the past few years. Are you getting back to in-person gaming? Is the society back up to pre-COVID numbers? I'd like to hear that it's building back up.

There's starting to be more in-person gaming, but I haven't been to any of it. NostalgiaCon was online (either on the boards or on Discord), as is the current Organized Play event (Outpost V). There's been a lot of 2nd Edition PFS happening online.

I'm really sorry for dropping off the face of the earth, yet again. I think it's time I admit to myself that I'm overextended. Please consider this my notice of disengaging from the game, and accept my apologies for the inconvenience.

Apology accepted for my part, Kris. I absolutely understand that RL has to take precedence. It's been fun playing with you.

To everyone else: it'll probably be easiest if you/we continue to bot Svarog at least through the Vault of Thorns, and we can reassess once done with that. Sound reasonable?

Thanks, John. I appreciate that. Good gaming to you all!

It's been great gaming with you as a player, Kris. Best of luck!

Getting a snow owl griffin just in time to ride off into the sunset, was that your plan all along? :D Fun running with you, Kris, as always. Will catch you on the flip side!

I know how busy you are, Kris. See you around!

I won't be able to post starting on Thursday, for about a week or so. I may be able to get in one last turn tomorrow/Wed, but if I don't, feel free to bot. I'm going with communal protection from evil before we go in, then Obscuring mist on the bridge (bot discretion).

I'm not going to have much of a chance to post before Sunday.

Happy Easter to all of you who celebrate it!

Thanks, and Happy Easter to you as well, DM C.

It's been a busy week at work, so I haven't had a lot of time. The assessors are leaving tomorrow, though, so things should open up a bit.

I'll be traveling most of the weekend, and probably won't have much of a chance to post.

I’ll be out of town this weekend!
