I might just have Cecilia cut through the rope next turn (or the turn after it, if necessary). There were two of them, right? So Morgrym can still climb down using the other one.
Also, if you're okay with the assumption that Javos has picked up a longbow and some arrows, then I have him use that, Kaavek.
It's nice having electricity and internet, again...
YAY Dayana the gods have answered!!
Also yes someone distract the dragons so I can try and pull the others behind some fungus or rocks
Ingra turns to see one of the drakes not 15ft from where she landed.
Rushing at the creature, she swings her greatsword.
She isn't fast enough, and the beast leaps away from her attack, using its wings to boost its speed and distance.
It lands back where it was, now aware of the dwarf's hostile presence.
Whoops wrong thread
These rolls are not the kind of rolls a group that's just wandered into a dragon nest at half health really needs...
You are not wrong. :P
By the way, you mentioned the debris on the map, Kaavek. What kind of Climb Check would a character need to climb up onto some of those grey stones? And how high would they be while standing on top of them?
Climbing the stones and debris would be a DC 10, and raise you 5 ft.
Thanks, Kaavek. Good to know about all of the options. :)
Also, glad to hear you're okay, Dayana.
Phew! Looks like Jathal's shot should have hit, and Javos landed a nice blow of his own behind the DM screen, meaning this little dance with dragons is over. Just before their breath weapon was ready again too, that was close.
I am moving to Texas next week, and won't be able to post for sure Monday-Thursday, and it just depends on what is going on whether I will be able to post the rest of the week. Hopefully will be back up and normal on Monday the 29th latest, since I start my new job that day, so things have to be resolved at least that much.
Please bot me as needed.
... Also, depending on what is decided in terms of staying/leaving etc. that might be a good time for me to come in with a different character. Sounds like we need a cleric, although open to suggestions if anyone has other ideas.
Zalindra could become an NPC with her father if we are still here, or just kind of retire back to her thieving ways if back in town.
Thoughts?
Eh... maybe.
We have a bard, a cleric and a warpriest.
Morgrym can only heal twice per day at this point, but it'll go up as we level.
Critically, if we get our hands on a wand of cure light wounds it'll be hugely different.
Additionally, if we were not under time pressure it might not be such an issue.
That said, if cleric appeals to you it is one of the classes that is hugely variable, and thus less likely to overlap.
We've had pretty bad thunderstorms and our internet has been out for at least 5 days.
I'm sending this on my phone, but my data is getting more and more precious due to it now being my only way to check emails, review University announcements, booking appointments etc.
Try and post today, as I'll be hotspotting on my laptop via my phone, but until we get it back I need to be conservative with data so it doesn't cost me an arm and a leg.
For the record, Morgrym is going to attack unless someone gives a good reason (in dwarven) not to.
OOC I have a worry this is an inward focused circle and we're about to make a terrible mistake, but I have no way to check that IC!
Sorry again for the slow posts.
I lost my only source of income a few weeks ago and have been trying to get finances sorted.
Centrelink is a b**@!.
You have my sympathy - to quote a friend of mine "Dealing with Centrelink is working for the dole."[/b]
XD
I think I'll steal that quote.
We got to the stage where we'd record names, dates, times, take photos etc to prove that if anything happened we had done our part and they had stuffed up.
They lost my tax file number so often Mum wrote it on the copy of my birth certificate we have them.
Absolutely. I've heard it is a good idea to record the name, date and time if you call them.
I liked the proposal that all federal politician salaries and benefits also be administered through standard Centrelink processes and resources. Can't see it ever getting through though.

Hey everyone, sorry for my silence. I'm stealing a minute at work to let you know that my home internet is completely borked. Please bot Aelion until I can get it working again.
Cheers, and Happy Thanksgiving to those of you in the US!
Sorry about your internet being down... that's an awful feeling.
When mine goes down I know that I should just be able to read a book and shrug it off, but I always feel like something is wrong, and it's hard to even get things fixed when you don't have the webpage in front of you. Sort of hilarious how dependent I've become. :)

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Sorry if I'm quiet, I'm away from home these two weeks and time is taken up much more than normal.
That's okay Jathal, I might be slow to post over the next few weeks too as I'm presenting a conference talk on the 12th and am still rushing to try and collect some extra data.
My internet access has been restored! :D I'll be traveling on Monday and unable to post, though.
*goes to catch up on what's happening*
HURRAH!!!

Good luck with your presentation, Kaavek. ;)

Thanks Cecilia, it went really well!
Since I normally summarise everyone’s actions at the end of the round, I’ll just give those who haven’t acted yet a heads up that Morgrym’s little test has shown that walking over the runes on the floor is definitely a bad idea.
Oh.
Oh dear.

Merry Christmas everyone!
Sorry for my inactivity.
It was hard to find my groove again after having no income or so long and battling with Centrelink, debt collectors, and finding out that I'm on the spectrum from my psychiatrist and arranging a bunch of tests to figure out where it's affecting my life and how severely.
Plus side is my payments are back and I've come to an arrangement with my debt people!
Hope everyone has a great new year!
Glad to have you back Ingra my Dwarven Sista!
Glad you've gained some ground in the battle with centrelink Ingra, welcome back.
I hope everyone has been enjoying their holidays and has a happy and safe new year's.
:)
So it sounds like this alchemist wants us to head upwards, towards where the party encountered the undead guard captain. Any objections to heading in that direction, dropping off the dwarf on the way?
Might want to avoid the chamber in which the goblin family makes it home, though. Did Dayana encounter them while leading the injured back to the entrance hall? :P
No - I've decided I'll be buying a rank in Linguistics for Morgrym when we next level. No common at all is killing my ability to interact, except by dragging my poor compatriots into translators.
I am enjoying the misunderstandings, though.
Well it's not like you dont have people who can teach you common.
No objections.

Still here and following the gameplay. 2019 has hit me like a hammer so I'm very busy at the moment. Which is why I'm so quiet and contenting myself with glaring nastily at people behind their backs. :)

Sorry for the slow posting lately, it's been a busy couple of weeks. I'm heading interstate for about a week now but hopefully things will settle down once I get back.
No worries, Kaavek. I hope your trip goes well!
So Tomorrow 3/29 [I guess technically today ] I am gonna go to my local Comic Con I have a hotel room and everything. will be there all weekend so if you don't hear from me I am their, just bot me I should be back by the 1st
I'm packing up to move on the 6th, and I probably won't have a lot of time to post. Please bot Aelion when necessary.
Let me know if I need to make a Diplomacy Check for Cecilia's little speech, Kaavek ;)
Still alive, just not very well. A nasty cold is keeping me tired and aching, with a nasty cough. Drops away until I get optimistic, then slams me back down again.
I hope to resume posting over the weekend, thanks for your patience.
Sorry all, work and other obligations are crushing me this week. I'll try to get a post out soon, but if I'm holding you up feel free to bot Aelion. He has blunt arrows.
No worries, I'm away on a work trip this week so I'm not expecting things to move at a blistering pace.
Wow, Lord Rivenroar got some really nice rolls there. :P
So it looks like Cecilia is as dead as they come. I was hoping I could use a Hero Point to have her somehow cheat death, but apparently you need 2 Hero Points to do that.
Still, it is something of a fitting end for the bard. Would anyone mind if I submitted a post detailing her final moments?
Sorry for my silence, a family matter has had me away from home the last few days. Things are settling and I"ll be back to regular posting tomorrow.
Oh man, that sucks, Cecilia.
I'd love to read a post with her final moments, though.
Please go ahead and post Cecilia’s last moments. I’m so sorry her tale had to end here, but it definitely is a fitting end. The bards of Brindol will sing of her bravery for generations to come.
I wish my most recent rolls happened before your demise, and I would love to here Cecilia's last moments!
