Still here, waiting to charge into the fort, most likely :P
Checking in, and waiting with Bass to enter the fort if and when we're needed.
Also here and I'm with the bum rush gang!
Hooray!
I do have a three items on the loot list that haven't been identified. Is that something that those waiting outside could look at kind of retroactively?

Certainly.
Thank you.
So we've got:
a bag of gems (Appraise DC 24)
a silver ring (Appraise DC 20)
and a pouch of dust (Spellcraft DC 22)
I'm not trained in either of those skills, so feel free to try your hand. I'm thinking to keep this to the discussion thread, so as not to clutter up the stealth mission.
Along with that, it appears that you have 2 unidentified potions as well. A DC 18 Perception OR Craft (Alchemy) will get that done. Both potions are the same.
Are folks still out there?
Yeah. I was waiting on Ivo, I think.
Eh?
I think the problem we have here is both sides are waiting for the other to do something.
Right now we have two folks sneaking around the fort. I need to know where you are going (based on the map on Roll20) before I can really do much more unless I simply disregard the sneaking nature of what you are trying to do - which I'm happy to do if that is what want, but I don't believe that is what you want based on the plan you had laid out.
So with the game on life-support at best, let me know what you'd like to do (either way) so that we can try and get this thing rolling again. (Assuming that is what the players would like to do).
I do want to get this rolling again, and to that end, might I offer a suggestion? We have a general plan, but we are waiting and reacting to see what the next step should be. If we abstract things a bit, we could just have rolls to investigate an area and then if there's points of interests, we as players can chose to pursue those. It's not perfect, but it might speed things along.
That could work. There are the two guards you have seen on the outside for you to avoid, assuming that is the plan if you wish to infiltrate the inside of the keep.
Of course, another option would be to sneak up on them and kill them all quiet like too...
Kinda high risk, though if we could do it, we could move a lot more freely. A silent spell would be really nice here.
Tove can identify the potions at least, but the value of the rest of the items is beyond her.
So in the initiative post, is that two rounds of normal running, or two rounds by horse?
Two rounds of double movement on foot.
Thanks!
Okay, this was not how I saw things going, but at least Terri's pretty good at crafting a lie.
I assume this is going for everyone, but I just wanted to let you know, DM Talomyr, that I'm going to be extra spotty this week, since I'll be away visiting family, and not have access to my normal computer. I'll try to check in as much as I can.
Merry Christmas everyone of ya! I hope you've had a good one and here's to a happy new year!
Merry Christmas everyone! May you all have a happy and safe new year!
Happy new year everyone! Hope you all had some fun over the holidays =)
I have. :)
Not looking forward to seeing what kind of mountain I have at work tomorrow, though. (The downside of being off for almost two weeks.)
And I'm assuming the gate is still closed?
Correct
Yup, but Terri's working on it. :)
Got a rules question for ya GM, can Terri draw her sword as part of entering a Battle Dance?
Yep.
Sorry about my absence. I've been travelling for work and I swear I just checked this thing like yesterday... and it's been 10 days.
Well, you are up currently. I'll give you a bit to get a post up before botting you again.
Sorry folks, just too damned tired tonight. I'll post tomorrow evening.
Feel better soon!
No worries. We'll be here. And who knows, maybe Garethane will post in the meantime. :)
That's crazy talk! Seriously though, apologies for my spotty attendance of late. I'll have 70 hours on my time card this week and likely 60 on next week's, so arrowbot as needed.
Sorry folks, I'm sick as a dog right now. I'll resume posting when my health improves.
:( Get feeling better soon!
Let me second that. Lotta crud going around.
Hope you feel better soon DM!
Well folks, it seems I've landed in the hospital with my current illness and will be out of action a while longer. Sorry, hopefully I'll be back soon.
Oh man, that's pretty gnarly. Take care of yourself and get better. We'll be around when you get back.
:)
^ Seconded.
Thank you for the well-wishes. Most appreciated.
I'm home from the hospital. I'm still a bit drained but I should be posting regularly again in the next day or two.
Glad to hear it, and good to have you back. Don't wear yourself out :)
Same. I’m looking forward to the conclusion of this fight, but I’d rather her have a healthy GM than an unhealthy one.
Hey, I'm opening up a recruitment thread for a short DnD 5e adventure if y'all are interested. The thread can be found here: A Dinner for Party of Five
Well, dang.
I knew that I was taking a risk, and I don't regret it since it kept him from skewering Tove or Garethane, but this still stinks. I was looking forward to after this fight and all of the banter and opportunities to get to know Terri and the other characters afterwards.
I'm just not sure what to play now if Terri dies.
Not letting that happen.
You live...for now. ;)
