Generic post to all games: I've been ill the last couple of days. Fever and Headache, and no real interest in any activity that includes, as the name implies, being active, as opposed to passively enduring.
I do feel a bit better today, but not good enough to return to work. As such, I expect that over the next 16 or so hours I will get to post/update in most(maybe not all - dunno how I'll feel later) of my games. This is as much an Aviso as a notification, though, as depending on how I will feel in the next few days(and after returning to work), post rate may be...slow. Where applicable, feel free to bot - (just to be clear: "botting me" is not applicable when I'm GM.)
Take a good rest and recover. This game can wait for you.
Once we clear through these last two "side sessions" we will move along to the next day.
Hopefully that will be no later than Saturday.
If Lia is still has not posted by then I will assume her to be unwell and fade that scene to black leaving you all to wonder did she or didn't she? :-)

Hey, pardon the intrusion. I'm the one who ran the original recruitment (which became table 1), and I just wanted to say how glad I am that your table is going strong. Our game has developed very differently than yours but, surprisingly, we're at about the same place in the AP right now.
Well, happy gaming!

Well, we are an amalgamation of tables 2 and 3, but I know I'm having a blast in this game. Thanks for kicking the idea up and letting us run with it!
It has been fun, that's for sure.

I'm more like a Gazebo, myself. Or...an idea clad in flesh. Eternal. Cheers to DMD for giving us this place.
I've been reading both threads from the beginning and it's been very interesting to see each campaign develop. They have very different feels to them. The concept, starting point, and chain of events are the same in each, but the flavors of the parties are wildly divergent, like each party somehow came to implicit agreements about writing style and tone,
Thanks for a great idea Nate, and thanks for great execution DMD!

No pardon necessary! Always happy to hear that the thread is a good read from an outsider looking in!
huh... when you asked to roll for Gather information... I think you may be a few game system editions off there :P To scour town and find someplace to live, erm... I'll venture a guess to roll both Knowledge Local & Diplomacy and let you decide what you want out of that.
Hah, yeah I run a 3.5 game so sometimes I get rules mixed up. I do the same thing in my Vampire game V20 and 2ed are so similar sometimes I forget what I am running!
Also, any response on the whole 'get more ammo' resupply topic?
Sorry, I think I missed the original question somewhere, could you repost? :-)
In general you can certainly resupply with the Garrison for free today as you have been "deputized".
Ooooh, do they have bows laying around? ;)
pssst, Windsight really wants a longbow.
How about thieves tools? :p

I am sure they do.
Thieves' tools? Maybe in the evidence chest though rumor has it that chest is a mimic to keep anyone not the Sheriff from reaching in it for contraband! :-)
Updates tomorrow, work was never ending today.
The DM badly needs a clone...
I blame the backwater ways that human experimentation is handled in most of these so-called "civilised societies".
Also, no worries :) I'm doing my best (and forcing Lia) not to flood gameplay to make it easier for you to catch up and get work done, WHEN you have time.
Yes, Windsight wants a longbow - it'd notably advance his archery damage. However, even if they have a composite longbow of his pull strength (+2) he isn't going to just take it; that'd definitely be wrong, as it doesn't belong to him. I can see him taking arrows to use, but then returning the unused ones later ... ;)
But Windsight doesn't have to take a longbow, he can issue himself one, or have one of the town watch do it. Returnable at the end of shift or service, as best he sees fit. We're already unpaid deputies or whatever so that doesn't seem too much to ask.
Rojava's certainly going to issue herself a shortbow when she can make it over there.
I will assume the group takes their time and issues any weapons they need to themselves for this endeavor.
Mirrors on poles though, you don't have time for that Drasven :-)

Darn. Always wanted to try something like that. Too bad I didn't get to meet up with Windsight during the walk around town.
How does this sound to everyone for the sake of time and update economy? It looks like we will be forcing a door, and it would be better not to attract a bunch of attention. Could we just agree that we'll take a quick look around the back of the Glassworks to see if there are less visible doors? We will then force the most out of sight door, and default back to breaking through the front door if there are no others? It would cut down on some posts back and forth before getting us inside.
I like this plan. Gwyddym is far from an expert in breaching structures. He'll be following along with the group, and looking out to make sure no one is sneaking up on us. :) Of all the times I wish I was a rogue. ;)
Ro could pick the lock if she had proper tools, but without them I'm not so sure. Taking 20 would be an option (I think, depends on whether it's a penalty for failure situation) and make it likely to work, but I couldn't guarantee it would be a sure thing. I doubt anyone really wants to stand around and see.
We have Karmid.
Who wields Angelo.
There's Windows.
It's a Glassworks.
If we need an entrance, there is one, and if they need to fix it up again afterwards, they can do so right in the factory.
*shrug*
Of course, we could also go to the Kaijitsu Manor and ask their father for a Key/what's going on. We ARE deputi-fied right now, so despite his dislike, he can't really dismiss us.
Works for me. Amend my suggestion to less visible doors or easily accessible windows on the rear (ocean) side of the Glassworks. If we find one we go in through there by force.
I agree!
Eventually, though, she says something to him that makes him takes his hands out from behind his back, and actually wrap his fingers around the bow's grip.
And so it is how the devil will always work his way with those who hold law above all other things. Heh heh heh.
Update tomorrow night.
I'll be spotty the next few days. Wife got admitted last night and they may be delivering babies today. Just waiting on confirmation from the doc.
Congratuations on your incoming bundle of joy then. Take your time. Welcoming new family is certainty more important.

Congratulations Gwydd! Wishing you all the best!

Aye! Congrats, Gwyddym. My little "bundle of joy" is 4.5 month now :)
It can be very..very hard sometimes, but the unconditional love they give you once they start smiling at you? Nothing comparable, really.
AKA 'if you're a first-time parent, sleep while you can.' My step-son is 18, but I've helped the wife with him since he was 2.5, and helped roommates with theirs (5 over all roommies) since birth, so ... congrats. Sleep when you can. ;)
This makes #s 2 and 3 for us. Momma and both babies (Aurelia and Guinevere) are all fine. Babies came out of the c section strong (5#11/19" and 5#15/19.5"), no need for any NICU time. Now it's just the pain management game for my wife.
Congrats; good names. One Auri, one Jenny. Don't let the latter around anyone named either Art/hur or Lance/lot. ;) If, on the other hand, the former discovers a Kvothe ... let us all know. ;)
OK Karmid, I fixed the link.

Awesome! I missed this conversation evidently. Congrats x2!
Francesca has unfortunately dropped, I knew I forgot to announce something :-)
I am _so_ sorry for disappearing. I had a series of life implosion and am just now getting everything stable again.
I am not going to go into detail, suffice to say that I dropped a bunch of balls and these boards were one of them.
I hope you all can forgive me. I hope to return to PbP games in the future and would love to do so here. I don't think my life is together enough yet, but I look forward to the time when it is.
Conveniently, another defensive Melee Char just dropped because PbB is too slow for them.
So it may just work out for you.
Good to hear from you Karina! I'm glad things are on the mend for you. I for one would love to have you back in the game if you decide to go for it.
Note that Windsight is NOT in the room but is up on the roof.

Glad you are alright Karina. Reach out to me in the future and I will let you know whether Karina can come back into the fold, at the moment she is away with the other wayward Godtouched who had to leave or disappeared from the game :-)
FYI, I will be off of the boards on Wednesday and likely Thursday due to my daughters impending surgery. Likely I will be distracted with hospital visit and aftercare those days.
I hope your daughter's surgery goes well and that it's nothing major. Take all the time you need.
We (and this game) can wait as long as you need. Family always comes first!
