DM Talomyr's Serpent's Skull (Inactive)

Game Master Talomyr

Ugh! Sorry to hear it, Tal. Hope you feeling better soon!

Hope you feel better soon!

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.

Please bot me for the next few days as I will be dealing with a few issues that will leave me unable to post. Thank you.

Sounds like we should let it rest a few days while folks recover, then check back in!

Please have any item sales/purchases completed by Monday. We'll get this one going again then.

How will the expedition be handling food, supplies, and such?

Once you head out into the wilds, your group will likely be the trailblazers, with the remaining Pathfinders lagging a bit behind. As long as you maintain daily contact with the rest of the Pathfinders, I'm not going to worry about food and basic traveling provisions.

If you break out further away, that could be a different story.

Welcome back Tal, glad you are feeling better!

I believe Dereje is the only PC with decent Diplomacy, I will try and aid another though!

I am also trained in Diplomacy, my rolls just suck.

I am also trained in Diplomacy, my rolls just suck.

I hear you. I only have 1 PC that ever gets decent rolls.

Folks, on April 27 I am moving, I will likely not be back online until April 29 or 30. Just a heads up.

Good luck with the move!

New spell list is up - I have 3 air bubbles prepared, or I could do Aboleth's lung, which would give each of us non-amphibious types one hour of water breathing, but we would need to stay in the water the full hour - we'd lost the ability to breathe air.

I don't think there's any good way to bring Sharpmaw along for this.

I'm memming Monkeyfish in place of Vanish

I hope we fight better than we negotiate...

Start thinking about changes that you would like to make for 5th level. After you gather the Tempest and return to town you will level.

Sorry for the radio silence. Life has been a bit on the busy side as of late. I'll get things going again later today.

All good DM!

Hana purchased a few more mundane things to help with overland travel:
* A couple of canteens
* A hand axe
* A machete
* A length of silk rope
* A grappling hook
* A compass
* Some vermin repellent
* An efficient tent

Would love to store some of this in Dereje's handy new magic bag, as Hana is not a high Strength fighter. :)

Still need level up information from Estietre and Lawdrak, then we'll get moving again.

Is the question mark after Craft Wand uncertainty if that is what you want to take, or asking if it is alright to take?

Things are a tad chaotic right now - I start a new job on Monday. Feel free to bot me to keep things moving, if I lag behind.

Thanks!

Everyone got what they want and ready to move on?

I'm all set.

Ready.

Ready

Sounds like we're going into the salt mine. Update coming tonight.

Question:

Is this game still going?

I've seen posts from Hana and Dereje recently, but it has been 12, 15, and 18 days for Estietre, Savras, and Lawdrak respectively.

I know folks are busy - I am too. If we need to put the game on pause for a while that's fine, but I would like to know.

Helloooooo~~~

My apologies, folks. I'm still here and ready to go. Posting shortly.

Hi Folks, apologies for the long absence between work, side business and still getting organized at the new place I got way behind.

I also believe I am a bit burnt out on RPing. Been doing it a long time and I think my muse needs a break. Going to withdraw from most games here on the boards.

Happy gaming to all!

Sorry to see you go, but I understand.

I will bot Savras through the current scene and see where things go from there.

Thanks for the heads-up, Shadow. Sorry that things are so rough for you right now.

Appreciate the diligence, DM.

re: Mum's PWNING the undead:

Scroll of spell: 150GP
Spellbook: 15GP
Ink to scribe spell: 20 GP.

Having the right spell for exactly the right moment: Priceless...

Sorry about the delay, folks. I've been having difficulties finding time to move things forward. I will try to get us going again this weekend.

I'll update the thread tonight.

My wife has decided to have family over in spite of the pandemic, so I'll be away through the weekend.

With only Hana and I posting since Nov 26, I think it may be time to call this one done.

Please correct me if you wish to continue. I am willing to continue if everyone else is.

While I would certainly like to continue, I know that my posting rate has been abysmal, lately. I'm in if you wish to continue, but I don't want to be a drag on anyone else's fun.

We'll see if Estietre and Dereje would like to continue as well. If they are still interested, we can slog through until life gets a little less crazy.

Lotta salt wights!

Sorry.. I'm still game.. just busy as well at the moment

Hey DM, sorry about being a drag. I've been having trouble giving all my games the attention they deserve, and I suppose all of these salt wights gave me a bit of fatigue. Losing our newest player was also pretty discouraging. It's not your fault, it's all just the nature of PbP.

But that all sounds like a bunch of doom and gloom. I am good to keep going - it'd be nice to recapture some of the energy we had in this game. :)

Alright, we'll continue on.

(We're just about done with salt wights by the way)

sorry.. rough few weeks
