Lomar def won't be going back to the group, as he doesn't feel they have that kind of time. He'll wait a few seconds/rounds at most, to see if the others can help get Seren and Jaegar up and well, and then he'll be off again after the dwarf.

Oh, and perhaps there's some confusion? I am under the impression that Lomar has found two healing potions in the backpack and has just used both of them, one on himself and the other on Seren. I understand that Cid had another potion that is presumably going to either Seren or Jaegar.
I have no problems with corrections if any of this is incorrect though

Corerue, how long would it have taken for Kieran to go back to the litle girl, have the quick chat, and come back with her?
Just trying to coordinate our timeline here.
Oh, and Ganit, Kirean's totally right that it's safer to gather the group and all proceed forward together.
Unfortunately Lomar's blood is up, and he has no intentions of letting the dwarf get away. In his mind, keeping his sis safe is top priority. So leaving the undead dwarf to maybe come back and attack them again does not seem to Lomar like a good way to do that.

Understandable. I figure I'll make the best of a good wisdom score and push Kieran towards an advisory role in the group. He may be loud and obnoxious (and a little outspoken), but ultimately wants what's best for the group. It's been a fun mix to play a character who tries his best to keep his head on straight but loses his s~*~ and smashes things to hell as soon as that control is lost, lol!
That being said, I wanted to leave it open to the team to decide how we proceed :-)

Sorry for wait.
Didn't get the job due to company politics and being deemed Critical Personnel. So taking some Me time atm. Will resume posting tonight or tomorrow.
Again apologies for the wait. But had to kill some things on Titanfall to avoid unnecessarily unleashing my wrath in PBP. lol (J/K kinda...) :/
Oh well though, better opportunities will come.

Must be a universal going-on. I lost out on a nice little job offer due to inner-office politics too. Being "too valuable" to move onward and upward is probably the lamest reason not to let a person find themself a more fulfilling position. At least you were told that upfront. I had to sleuth through carefully worded emails and meeting points to determine my circumstances.
Currently organizing an argument to say to my bosses (the two have been in a hilariously "subtle" war for control over myself and my team for about a year now) that if I'm so damn valuable, I should see some sort of gratitude. No doubt that'll get shot down.
My next course of action will be to pull a Clint Eastwood on those suckas! I've seen A Fistful of Dollars enough times to scheme up something interesting. Then, after discovering that I suck at being Clint Eastwood, it's onward to the unemployment office!!!

At least you can ask the age old question. "How would my value affect getting this promotion? Or what skills do I need/lack for the promotion?"
I would never give an ultimatum of course. ;) Becauses its easier to find a better job while still employed. You could volunteer to work with people in the position you applied for, more work load but it would help expand your skill set. I do that at work, work 12 hours and offer to work with other groups for free nfor anywhere between 2-6 hours after work. Then I have 2-6 hours to get back to my camp, get some sleep, eat and go back to work. Rinse and repeat and its a long work week but good experience. :)

Truth. Unfortunately, I've been promoted to the highest level my current position can offer. Though my days aren't nearly as long as yours, I'm already shouldering a number of responsibilities outside of the my office's area. I'll tear into any opportunity I can sniff out mostly due to the fact that I need a challenge!
Now it's just a matter of playing up both sides to see which offers me a better deal; all the while praying that the other doesn't squash the prospect with some bureaucratic, nuclear-powered flyswatter.
In times of great uncertainty, I always ask myself: "What would Clint do?"
So, having lost my pet orangutan, AFoD seems the natural choice :-)

Hey all, will be on Hiatus for about a week as I get my financees together. Work has suspended me for 6 weeks pending investigation. Not fun but stuff happens so I have to deal with it, it sounds like my job is secure but we won't know until they complete their investigation.
Sorry for the continued delays. Just need to get my head on straight.

Hey folks. I must now make an announcement I'm finding it quite difficult to make. I'm sure some, if not all of you won't be too surprised though as it's been coming on slowly for some time now.
I'm taking an indefinite leave from PbP.
I've been playing these wonderful games online for seven or eight years now, and they have brought me an immense amount of fun, creative challenge, entertainment and inspired flights of fancy. I simply do not have the words to express my deep gratitude for each and every one of my fellow players, and most especially all the hard working GMs I have had the great pleasure and privilege to game with. Thank you all, so incredibly much.
While I still do very much enjoy these games and collaborative creative fiction, upon some deep reflection, over some time now, I feel I need to concentrate my energies in some different directions. Now is the time for it.
I'm sorry I didn't get to know Lomar more. He's a bit of an arrogant bastard, but he's great in a scrape and he does love his sister (perhaps a little too much. Hey! They're not actually related, ya know).
If you can or choose to somehow keep him around, great! But if you have to kill him off, I totally understand that too. Whatever you feel works for the story best.
I may be back! I just have no idea when, or if at all. I am sure I'll still skulk around and keep abreast of the game though. So please keep up the stellar writing!
I consider you all friends, and I wish you all the very best. Thanks for putting up with me all these years!
Fare thee well, my boon companions and, as the Elvish saying goes,
"Merry meet, merry part, and merry meet again!"

Jaeger di Angelo |
![Seltyiel](http://cdn.paizo.com/image/avatar/PZO1126-Seltyiel_500.jpeg)
I love reading The Blood of Fiends for ideas on Jaeger. It's partially where I got the idea for his flashy outfit.
Tiefling clothing tends to fall into two camps: that designed to conceal, and that designed to enhance. Those who dress in the former style tend to choose loose, voluminous clothing specifically designed to cover the marks of their heritage—someone with horns might wear hoods or elaborate hats, while a tiefling with hooves might wear special boots to conceal the affliction. Those tieflings who instead flaunt their status for the sake of intimidation or exoticism often choose clothing that showcases their physical differences, exposes great amounts of skin, or even bears some of the iconography of their presumed
fiendish ancestors. Thus, a tiefling merchant might go veiled and swathed in robes, while a tiefling bullyboy might wear black leather cut tight to show off bulging
muscles and contrast with his inhuman skin tone.
Also it's not his fault he's always ready for a fight.
Tieflings naturally excel at war, battle, and bloodshed. These activities seem to speak to their fiendish heritage, and tieflings bring a fearsome inventiveness to the task. They are capable strategists and fearsome tacticians, with an instinctive grasp of the ebb and flow of the battlefield.
See totally not my fault.

So I am actually redrawing Jaeger now. With the new version of Abyssion and showing off the embedded gemstone or as I like to call it his "demonic core".
Edit:
I know, right? What's the point of being planetouched if you don't show off your otherworldly appearance?

Alright I know it looks like I'm fishing here but I'd really like feed back on Jaeger. My hope and passion is to one day have Cyra and my art work show up in a gaming book or something like that.
So I need the critiques even if you don't like how I drew him, I need to know why so I can fix that.

Honestly, I'm not really qualified to talk about art.
Is it as good as the stuff in my Paizo books? No.
Is it much better than I could do? Yes.
Do I have any idea how you might improve? NO.
Really, you should try messaging some of Paizo's informal art community: try Hugo 'Butterfrog' Solis, the guys who do the art in the 'we'll draw your character/weapons' threads and the people who make the paper minis.
Those people will know what they're talking about.

I am in no position to give a critique. I am amazed when people are able to draw something more similar to real people compared to my mms ight stickmen.
The only suggestions. I can give is similar to Serens above. Coupled with...
Poses Tutorials
Another great GREAT resource is Anime Manga Poses. The have a book on normal posing, animals and action. I own then and they are a fantastic way to improve if you have the patience. Which sadly I do not. Lol
At least I can understand what I am looking at with your pics as some stuff I see on Deviant Art hits me with Wtfits?
Other then that keep improving on your art, you've both came a long way and have the ability to improve. :)

*This* is a close estimate of my artistic abilities. I admire anyone who can draw/paint/render a picture because I know it's something totally beyond my skills as a human.
The best advice I can muster up - given a history with music - is generic advice! (My favorite kind of advice).
- Own your mistakes/shortcomings
- Practice
- Find joy in challenges
- Practice
- Push the limits of your comfort zone
- Practice
***********
Anyway, about Tawn'Garth's suggestion to split the group - does anyone feel this would be beneficial to us or should we move on as a whole?
