I have been hit by a seemingly unending list of IRL issues, and I wanted to let you all know. I will return as soon as I can to my regular posting but it may be as long as next week before I have time again.

Sorry for the long wait for even this response, but I cannot express how crazy it has been.

Private guard within the palace walls? Professor Plum just made the naughty list... Good thing the ambush plan didn't go through. My only criticism of the Split the Party move is that the most common result doesn't answer the question of whether to split the party. (Also, as written, the subtext suggests we should split the party, whether that's a sound recommendation, or just Volsung being a DM and saying DM things)

My estimate of the fronts (even assuming the nobles are one front) is:
* The Plague itself
* mumblemumble Mountain
* The Sylvan Element (TM)
* Corrupt Nobility

My list of threats (in no particular order) is more like:
* The plague
* The quarantine
* The food shortage
* The healthy citizenry
* The Over-taxed Guard
* The explosives no doubt strategically placed around Eloen
* The Red Horse of Enrel
* The Regal Lion of Eiralath
* The Nobel of Neutrality
* probably each of the other nobles individually (except Briben, we have plenty of coin)
* The Duches of Eloen
* The mountain/door thing
* Something about a tower
* The Point
* Flails in general
* The Aboleths
* Enemies of the Green Lady
* We slew a God without a PC death

Don't forget
* Asmodeus wants a way to control dragons
* Two embattled Dwarven fortresses, and a pair of wandering dwarves

Other threats are those creepy underwater Aboleth like things that Tom saw in a vision.
Male Human Cleric 6 26/26 HP | 14 XP | Bless, Sanctuary, Speak With Dead | -2 cast a spell, 2 hold (spend 2 to make camp, 5 to escape labyrinth), blessed

I think the aboleths were stopped (for now) by stopping Einora. My vision tied the aboleths that Belym saw with the brass altar.

EDIT

Fronts are geographic locations, right? So if we narrow the scope to this kingdom then we have the mountain, the quarantine zone, the palace, and the towers. If you want to make it universal then there are the dwarven fronts (two fortresses), & the planar fronts (aboleths, dieties, & demons).

1.)I'm glad that you guys remember so many of my plot points

2.) For the record, if you had blown all three perilous journey rolls, the cold open would have been "So, Ron's 15 meters up, in a Gryphon's talons, the rations are over the cliff, it is turning around for another pass, and there's no cover (and little tera firma) to speak of. What do you do?

Okay, so slightly sappy, but it has been a year since the campaign started as of today. It has been great, all of you have been great, I really enjoy doing this, and you have all been great

So thank you all for doing this with me, and making it so damn fun.

This has easily been the best PbP I've been in, and I've been around for a bit.

This court intrigue scenario is both everything I could have dreamed of and positively petrifying.

Over the table, team, if there's stuff I should be asking about, please let me know. I have zero actual background in interrogation.

Then again, I have zero actual background in eating babies and we all know how that went...

I'm sorry guys, It might be another day or two before I update. it's finals week, and I'm kinda strapped for time between my own studies, and a few friends who are having a rough time.

I haven't forgotten you guys, and I look forward to resuming this campaign!

While Volsung frantically studies, I wanted to briefly share the story of how one of my sons murdered my beloved character in our multi-year campaign.

Good news, I'm back (as you guys already noticed)

Other good news: I have a bunch-ton more free time. anyone into superheroes?

also, McKhaos, your kid sounds like a talented GM already. 6 years old, and already a stone-cold PC killer.

Cassie is my favorite liability.

She is very convenient to make hard moves in the court intrigue thing. With her established aggressive personality and training from Roshan.

I think I've lost the thread a bit here. What is our current objective in these mountains? Knowing this is the Aboleth's domain and they live deep underground ... it seems like we must gather our adventuring party before venturing forth.

I saw belym suggesting you guys head down tgere. If you don't want to, your free toventure along one of the other paths.
Male Human Cleric 6 26/26 HP | 14 XP | Bless, Sanctuary, Speak With Dead | -2 cast a spell, 2 hold (spend 2 to make camp, 5 to escape labyrinth), blessed

I had a vision of something that might be in these mountains, so we're exploring here before heading to the quarantine. We're rallying at the towers.

Ok, so this mountain trip doesn't have anything to do with the mysterious dwarven settlement nobody has heard from? We are just up here investigating what is going on?

It might be related to the disease in some form.

My vision was here

And the more direct pointing to the mountain was here

I picture this darkness being like the Upside Down where we see ourselves but bright light suddenly becomes darkness within a few feet.

The crash ate an awesome CHA roll and made it a 6. I'll write my post again and put it up in a bit when the site is more stable.

Roshan's inside-voice

I think, with this post, I've confirmed some long-held suspicions on a few of your parts

More coincidental than Bribin' Dollarin': The orange noble's initials are OJ.

Just lost a huge post.

Ugh.

It's pronounced with Day-lore-en... and for the record, both of their names where assigned after personality, and randomly generated

and, my sympathies, I hate it when that happens.

That is miserable!

Ever since I lost a 30 line poem my bard was writing about the adventures of the ranger player I now do a quick select all->copy before submitting anything.

I usually use google drive, so i can go platform to platform, but my phone's been crashing and slowing down a lot, so if I'm trying to post AFK, it's a constant struggle.

Today was a team-building trip at a park, so there was next to no service.

Yeah, when I'm dealing with lousy service, I usually draft in an offline editor first. Inevitably when I forget, the submit fails and my text vanishes into the ether. So I feel your pain!

Apologies if that came across as impatient! It was the opposite - didn't want you all to be waiting for me to post something :p have fun at the graduation!

I'm gonna shoot tom a PM, if he doesn't respond in a day or so, we'll soldier on without the cleric.

We may want to consider migrating to a different platform.

You are... not the first person to raise the suggestion

and, in all honesty, the bi-hourly site failures are getting a tad frustrating.

I'd entertain the sugestion

I'd follow this game to another site.

Taver Keeper is a decent candidate. I don't know about it's servers, but the system is functional.

Roll20 is full-featured, but isn't designed with PBP in mind.

I'm in roughly the same position as Sbodd, in terms of input. I can say TK has always been adequate, and I've run stuff over there in the past.

also, I know Bastian is trying to get everyone's contact info, in case things go wrong-er than they already have been. You guys should make sure they have that.
