Starting on the 16th I'm going to be away on a quasi-vacation to the other side of Canada. My grandfather is passing away and my family is travelling out to see him. I'll be back on the 29th. Unfortunately, internet isn't going to be a thing where I'm headed, so its very unlikely that I'll be able to post at all.

Hey all, I'm still around, but my creative juices are a little low today. I had to work over four hours until 3am this morning and then be up a few hours later to take care of my little man while the wife went to work until I then had to come back to work this evening. I kept trying to get in and post, but seems like every time I just couldn't get the old brain to want to work. I will be rejuvenated tomorrow after some well deserved sleep shortly.

Hope everything's going alright with you GM Faelyn. I'll be gone this weekend as I'm going to attend my best friend's wedding tomorrow. Should be back late Saturday/mid day Sunday to check back in.

Okay, I've had some time to refresh myself and I'm going to get things rolling again. I'll be busy this evening, but look for a new post from me tomorrow!

Hey all, glad to see the forums are finally up and running again. I am starting a mini vacation tonight until Wednesday so I will not be posting at all likely until then. I apologize for the short notice, but I literally could not mention it sooner as I couldn't post here for well over a week.

I am going to wait until I know for certain the site is stable again before I start posting in my games. Please be patient with me, because I have already lost several long posts in the past week while attempting to get my games running again and have become incredibly frustrated by these issues.


Male Halfling Bard (Archivist) Level 1, HP: 8/8/ Non-lethal damage: 0/8 Ac: 15/ Touch: 13/ FF: 13/ Fort: +1/ Reflex +5/ Will +8 (+2 vs. Illusions/Fear/emotion)/ Init: +2/ Percep; +9/ Bard perf: 4/6/ Fear Level: 0/7/ Sanity Score 43/43/

Why am I so determined to play an angry Halfling who is probably going to get us into more conflicts than would be strictly necessary?

For art! That's why.

Hey, I don't know why I feel the need to touch everything, but I do! Oh well, onward for the story!

I rather enjoy our flaws.

Hey guys, I apologize for the slowing down of things again. In the past several weeks I've been working a crap ton of extra hours and my brain has really been fried. I leave for vacation tomorrow for a week and we will pick things back up when I get back, I promise!


Male Halfling Bard (Archivist) Level 1, HP: 8/8/ Non-lethal damage: 0/8 Ac: 15/ Touch: 13/ FF: 13/ Fort: +1/ Reflex +5/ Will +8 (+2 vs. Illusions/Fear/emotion)/ Init: +2/ Percep; +9/ Bard perf: 4/6/ Fear Level: 0/7/ Sanity Score 43/43/

Alright.

I'm back from vacation, but scrambling to get caught up with all the tech changes from while I was on vacation. My entire department received training on our new camera (body and car cameras) systems while I was gone. My training was "here's the box, figure it out." Gee. Thanks guys. So I've been devoting a lot my time the last two days to getting myself oriented to these new devices. I hope to get my games updated soon.

Welcome back from your trip!

However, that sucks that the "training" was effectively,
"Here's your new equipment. Now you get to figure out how it all works."


Strange Aeons - Map | Darkmoon Vale - Droskar's Crucible Level 1 | Droskar's Crucible Level 2

Hah, yes, I very much agree. Okay, I'm ready to get things back on track! Do we still have everyone here?

Man, I really hope my intimidation attempt here isn't going to have the opposite level of effect compared to what I want. Ratch seems jumpy enough that it might but also this could work out too.

Drafton is legitimately angry that just about everything here has tried to kill to kill him since the moment he woke up. The sense motive result gave him enough of a clue as to what was going on that he preferred to double down on the fear tactic rather than use placating diplomacy.

I'm aiming for more of a "We're bigger and scarier than you so don't mess with us or it will end badly."


Strange Aeons - Map | Darkmoon Vale - Droskar's Crucible Level 1 | Droskar's Crucible Level 2

Yeah, I apologize for the delay. I've been very busy recently and I've been going back and forth on how Ratch would respond to this, because I'll be honest I'm a little on the fence right now.


Male Halfling Bard (Archivist) Level 1, HP: 8/8/ Non-lethal damage: 0/8 Ac: 15/ Touch: 13/ FF: 13/ Fort: +1/ Reflex +5/ Will +8 (+2 vs. Illusions/Fear/emotion)/ Init: +2/ Percep; +9/ Bard perf: 4/6/ Fear Level: 0/7/ Sanity Score 43/43/

I mean, if Drafton's words are enough to force Ratch to act friendly, or at least non-hostile for a short time as per the (Influence Opponent's Attitude) social use of Intimidate, that's what he was going for. Drafton doesn't want to make friends with Ratch. Drafton wants the Ratling to fear him right now and not interfere with his group.

I grant the forces arrayed against us right now, especially with their spell like abilities, are overwhelming and likely fatal if it comes to a knock-down drag-out fight. But that is only something that happens if Ratch decides to call Drafton's hand. (I hesitate to call it a direct bluff because technically, Drafton's not lying.) I'm trying to play up on the scary aspect of his Enduring Stoicism trait. But if you'd rather, I could roll a bluff too.

On the other hand, if his actions triggered a fight, then let's roll initiative and see what happens.

You could always flip a coin. This is basically a game of chance after all.


Male Halfling Bard (Archivist) Level 1, HP: 8/8/ Non-lethal damage: 0/8 Ac: 15/ Touch: 13/ FF: 13/ Fort: +1/ Reflex +5/ Will +8 (+2 vs. Illusions/Fear/emotion)/ Init: +2/ Percep; +9/ Bard perf: 4/6/ Fear Level: 0/7/ Sanity Score 43/43/

Well, while I do enjoy coin flipping from time to time, what I'm doing have a far more variable chance rather than either he lets us go about our respective business or not. I'm trying to turn this into a social battle encounter rather than a combat encounter. Drafton is just trying to brute force (intimidate) his way through it rather than surreptitiously circumvent (bluff) or disarm (diplomacy) the conversation.

Drafton is calling this guy out but is giving him an option as to what to do. Leaving each other alone. Admittedly, he's doing so in front of his minions and in a manner not befitting a leader, so Ratch might just decide to kill the impudent Halfling for challenging him.

The only advantage Drafton has is his angry words and how scary he seems to be, he's punching way above his pay-grade right now. If Ratch decides to unleash his full might right now and attack the party, then we almost certainly lose and this campaign is lost... unless he decides to take us prisoner or something.

That said, if I've been reading the text correctly, Ratch Mamby might just hate Drafton and make an example out of the Halfling alone in an attempt to cow the rest of you into some sort of servitude. The rest of you could also decide to throw the Halfing under the bus if things go south and you might be able to grovel your way out.

Sorry on the delay. Lot of craziness going on the last few days with sudden vehicle issues and lots of extra overtime at work has delayed me a little bit. I'll look to update things over the next few days.


Strange Aeons - Map | Darkmoon Vale - Droskar's Crucible Level 1 | Droskar's Crucible Level 2

Okay, quick roll check to make sure everyone is still with me!

I don't know how good you guys are to keep moving. I know our characters have done a decent amount of stuff today and we didn't get killed by Ratch and his flunkies so there's that.

I'm thinking we abandon checking this place out for now, and either head northward or retreat back to our previous camp. I'm hoping that if we leave now, we can come back later and check through it after Ratch has left the immediate area. Or doesn't care so much that we're there.

I'm only down my mage armor spell. I'm good to keep moving forward.

Hey all, I’m sorry to drop this on you so suddenly, but I just lost my job today unexpectedly. I’m going to have to end this campaign. I have to focus my energy on supporting my family and locating a new job. Again, I’m sorry that this happened so suddenly. If I end up finding the time and energy in the future to pick this up again I will extend an invitation to each of you. Or if you want to try and find an replacement to take over I can support that. Either way, I will leave this open for a little while while you guys discuss what you would like to do.

Oh man, that's terrible. Sorry to hear that. Good luck finding a new job. Don't worry about games or anything else like that. I hope to hear from you at some point in the future as that means things will have gone well.

I'm very sorry to hear about your job. By all means do what you have to do. Good luck in your search. Best wishes and thanks for everything.
