And the light rays bypass most DR and energy resistances, which is huge.
away this week end
My apologies for being a sent for a few days. Been moving since Friday. And no internet connection in the new house (even though I'm in the middle of the city and my cell signal for inet was also nonexistent.
Cable Guy installed a modem this morning...and voila
I'm back
Will be on the roads this week end, bot me as needed
my position is perfect. any way to indicate the width of the doorway in case its more than 1 square?
It is only 1 square. I added 2 doors and a number of windows.
GM, can you mark Sophie as an active character in the game?
Done!
So I have a crazy idea. It only works if everyone buys in. I can explain it if you need it explained, or sell it to you if you find understand the appeal, or just drop it if you want to veto it right out.
What if we move this game to a discord server instead of playing it here on the message boards?
We could ask one of the online ledges (they're like Flaxseed, but on discord) to host us, or we could create our own server. Let me know your thoughts!
I don't use discord, sorry.
Ok no worries, just a passing thought
I am going to be offline until Monday. Feel free to bot me as you see fit.
Ummm...not sure how that's supposed to work.
"Inside the tower, you find a chest filled to bursting with platinum pieces."
I'm so sorry for being absent this week - I was traveling for my first conference since the Before Time and had two different things blow up at work that I had to deal with during the breaks. Catching up this evening.
I got a little rushed with my copy/paste, and then this week just killed me.
Hoping the next week is better.
Sorry for not posting earlier. I should have done so and feel regret.
Honest and simple. Love it. (actually, it cracked me up! been there so many times myself).
Glad to have you back!
GM, could you move me back into the active players category for this campaign?
Everybody still here?
I am. We're waiting on Gregor, I think.
oh I am
Hey everyone, sorry for the lack of posting lately. I haven't really been feeling it in this game and recently I have become much more busy than I have been in past years.
What is a graceful way for me to withdraw from this game? Do you all want me to keep posting for a set amount of time until we reach a landmark?
I will post again here soon.
Gregor, IME this is not uncommon, so no issues on my part.
Everyone else, I think that between Doro, Sophie, Vivian, and Nic, we'll have enough combat power that we can get away without replacing Gregor.
GM F, depending on how much more we'll have to do with this combat, do you think we can bot Gregor until the end of it? How about botting him through the rest of the village? That would make for a better break.

I agree.
No worries Gregor, I've been there.
I'm fine with any of the proposed arrangements
Yah, that should be fine. With Gregor, you are overpowered for where we are, bu without him it might be a significant challenge. And since you are in two separate encounters simultaneously here, we will at least bot him through this.
No hard feelings Gregor - I am also more swamped than I have been in many years, so I totally get that. I have also pulled out of a few games recently, and a couple more are just wrapping up, so we'll see where I land in a week or two.

Wishing all of you in the US a Happy Thanksgiving!
Hello all - sorry for going silent with no warning. My wife's mother passed away this weekend, and between that and the holiday season, we are scrambling to get everything in order. I am posting this same note to all of my groups, so some of you will likely see it more than once.
I suspect I won't be only until after Christmas, and maybe not even until after the new year. I will try to catch up on games where I can, but I don't expect to be very successful. If I am a player, please feel free to bot me or drop me as needed. If you bot me, all resources are available to you - I am not worried.
For those I am running, I certainly won't me able to organize combat as I will be remote. But feel free to continue RP if available and I can answer questions as I get a chance.
Thank you for your patience and understanding, and for those of you that celebrate, Hanukkah Sameach, Happy Kwanzaa, and Merry Christmas!
My condolences to you and your family, GM.
I'm so sorry to hear about your family's loss, Fuzzfoot. I hope all else is well for you.
I've been very very sick.flu that turned to Pneumonia. Trying to get out of the can't function zone.
And sorry for your loss
Hope you recover soon, Doro.
Yes, I hope you feel better soon, Doro! Take your time in recovery - I know that can take a lot out of you.
I am back, but will still have a few days here and there of offline time.
Sorry folks, I will try to catch up this weekend. For the past few weeks, I’ve been in interviews and negotiations to move to a new firm and while it’s all very exciting, it’s a big change and the process is kind of draining. This will only be my second move since 1994 and there’s a lot to deal with both before and after.
It’s all coming together now, and I’m hoping that I’ll have finished the move itself in 3-4 weeks. I’ll be super busy after I start at the new firm, but I still think I’ll have more energy for gaming than I do now. Right now I’m in the most stressful part, so please forgive my delays.
Good luck! It sounds draining, but hopefully you're through the worst of it.

Congrats on the new job! I think I might know how you feel - I too have been the same place for over 30 years now.
Thanks!
Is Vrood holding a staff the way he is in his picture? If so, I'm probably going to cast grease on it in the hope that it's his arcane bond.
He is holding a staff.
Sorry I haven't been posting much this week. Yesterday was my last day at my old firm and I'm taking a week off before I start at the new one. I'll get caught up this weekend.
Vivian, is your attack modifier only +5?
The next time we get to town, Niculaie needs to buy a little drum. He has a perfectly good debuff (the Haunting Refrain bardic performance), but it requires either Perform (keyboard) or Perform (percussion), and I don’t see him dragging a piano along for the rest of the AP.
Although… now that I think about it, isn’t an accordion considered a keyboard instrument? Maybe Niculaie will cast fear into the heart of his enemies by playing the accordion!
@Nic: it's +7 actually (before any buffs) Bab +5 for Rogue 4/ Inquisitor 4, +1 for str, +1 for keen longsword

I do believe an accordion would be the perfect effect for you! Nothing like a good accordion dirge for a cloudy, werewolf laden moonlit night. Maybe a slow underlying polka would be nice?

All right, that’s a plan!

That makes sense. I asked because you had +5 on your attack of opportunity and it seemed low.
Won't be home this week end (and next week end)
Bot me as needed
The spell's author has unofficially stated that it is supposed to be able to perform a maneuver 1/round just like the Spiritual Ally/Weapon spells. Also like them, it can be repositioned with a move action.
Also, the spell description states that you can use it to Drag, but that requires you to move while performing the maneuver. Some have suggested that the caster could spend their move action to move the chain as part of this maneuver. For this turn, Reposition is good enough for me, but it could come up later.
Finally, Harker had originally ruled that I could basically swap Wisdom and Charisma whenever they are mentioned in pre-Oracle Cleric spells, so I have done that with this one as well. If you want to change that ruling, let me know.
This all sounds reasonable to me.
