For some things, good ol'fashioned PAIN brings so much more result and/or fun ;)

But is torture a Craft, or a Profession? (As a GM, I usually let players roll Heal checks).

I would guess profession. Typically I think craft ends up with a tangible product, whereas professions provide a service.

Dantes is right. In other news, I would like for everyone when they have a chance to log into https://app.roll20.net/join/775811/Uxl9_g, please. I'm going to start using Roll20 for our maps because I recently purchased a full subscription and need to justify the $10/month. It will also permit me a little more flexibility with the map.

I logged in, but I can't see an actual map - just the grid set-up where the map should be.
F Gnome (Gear Gnome) Oracle 4 (Lore)
I logged in, and should register as "Abe P."
Maps: Car. Crown || Forge of Heroes || Skull & Shackles
Yes, no map as yet. I just wanted to get everyone logged in so I could assign tokens.

One of my other pbp GMs is also using Roll20, so I have an existing account, and that's what I logged-in with (Ethan S - the name of my character from THAT campaign)
Is this going to be a problem? Should I create another account under another username?
F Gnome (Gear Gnome) Oracle 4 (Lore)
Oh... I've been using Roll20 through gchat, so that's my actual name.
Maps: Car. Crown || Forge of Heroes || Skull & Shackles
Shouldn't be a problem, so far as I know. I think that Roll20 considers each game a separate instance.

I play in a Rappan Athuk and a Way of the Wicked game on Roll20, so I've an account as well. :)

Could everyone let me know your name on Roll20, if you haven't?

Sean S. should be my name there.

Changed my name on there to me! (Ayaki Kitsune) !

If the squiggly thing menaces without immediately attacking, might try to fire off some pre-emptive buffs, if anyone wants extra AC or water breathing. But heck, it's got a face, so maybe it can parlay.

Oh my god. You bit a Naga, chumtooth. Are you sure you didn't accidentally eat a Barbarian and inherit his soul?

This is what happens when some (now dead) fool decides to press-gang a kuru. ;-)
Chum's style is head-on and (to a degree) reckless, but he doesn't go completely berserker.
He is the humaniod equivalent of a large predatory cat. He attacks aggressively and attempts to take down his prey quickly. If things turn against him though, he will back off or even retreat, if necessary.
F Gnome (Gear Gnome) Oracle 4 (Lore)
Can I target the Naga with the corner of a Burning Hands cone without hitting the others, since it's a large thing, or is the map not set up right for that?
F Gnome (Gear Gnome) Oracle 4 (Lore)
Alwen, remind me to craft you some fancy bracers later, because I forgot how nice Longbow crits are

Those bracers could have an awesome '70's look to them if you made them from...naga-hide!

Two day surprise weekend, hard to get online. Bot me if necessary.
F Gnome (Gear Gnome) Oracle 4 (Lore)
Okay, we are DEFINITELY making something out of Naga hide when this is over. Although this is all I could find and we can't craft one, maybe we can do something with it at the tannery.

Omg that is so sweet!! Can we keep the thing until we're level 10? :D
F Gnome (Gear Gnome) Oracle 4 (Lore)
"The bindi can be used twice before it loses its luster and becomes non-magical"
I'm thinking "Naga Hide Armor" is probably the best bet. With GM permission, I'd treat it as Eel Leather without the Electricity resistance (though if I could use it to craft some "Naga Hide Gloves" similar to Shark Skin, that would also be bully).
Let's finish the fight first, of course.
Maps: Car. Crown || Forge of Heroes || Skull & Shackles
If I could ask a favor of everyone: Please add to your profile a "wish list" of items that your character would eventually life to find. I plan on changing much of the loot to suit the characters' desires, and I need to know what it is you want. Just put your list in a spoiler on your character sheet, please.
Don't worry about things like, a "+2 cutlass." That goes without saying, but if you want a weapon or armor to have special properties, then by all means, include such. Likewise, potions, scrolls, and wands probably won't change much from what is in the AP, but wondrous items, rings, and weapons and armor with special abilities will be altered to fit the wishlists.
Thanks!
F Gnome (Gear Gnome) Oracle 4 (Lore)
Sounds good. If we're doing something to fill the time between encounters, Chumtooth could try tanning the Naga Hide, for that pun? Not sure if that's possible.

Naga skinned.
Naga head shrunk.
Naga skull cleaned for the rack
And....
Poison collected from naga venom sacs!
You can use some to brew antitoxin or the like, and I can finally put my blowgun to use.
We can also try to milk some of these wasps, once we kill them.

Everyone okay out there?
It's gotten a little quiet.

Sorry, busy week. Will try and post tomorrow.

We are waiting on Ayaki and Alwen, I guess?
Maps: Car. Crown || Forge of Heroes || Skull & Shackles
Yep. I'll give them until later tonight and then bot them.

This week has been heck tick I have had an interview for a new job yesterday and was in no mood to even look at this page because I was trying to keep up everything. Then my son sucked me into playing FFXIV last night so I did not even look here at all. Sorry that was my fault life got in the way

Uhm, is anyone besides Chummy and Vickie still playing?

It seemed like it, but everyone disappeared last week?

I'm definitely still on board!

I really hope the others didn't jump ship on us.
I've lost count of how many S&S pbps I've been a part of that have fallen apart. This one's gotten the farthest, and I'm having a lot of fun with this character and this crew. I really, really don't want to see the campaign end.
F Gnome (Gear Gnome) Oracle 4 (Lore)
It's weird that this particular campaign seems to do that; but I also remember the other players being really excited about this game a very short time ago.

Satinder is still here, waiting for the next turn?
F Gnome (Gear Gnome) Oracle 4 (Lore)
Oh! There was another turn, I guess people missed it, everyone but Chumtooth and I are up again.

I apologize; my work has flared up for several days now and I've been swamped. I'll be back to normal now. So sorry!
