Yeah, we're goblins. No one's taking watch. Sometimes we forget to do the sensible thing, and remember both Twitchy and Mort were amongst the first to fall asleep.
I get that I just want to make sure, before I moved it along.
Mean Medge kicks Ronk. Ronk should bite her. Then Medge would learn to respect Ronk.
I cackled at this. I don't think Ronk would get the result he wants ;)
No but it is how he feels. He was having a moment and Medge attacked him and he is q little bitter. Glad you enjoyed it
PlotBunny is leaving state tomorrow for a few days so we get to just role-play with each other for a bit.
What, roleplay? I think we need to SING.
I found out Friday my grandfather is very ill, and he is not likely to get better. He broke his hip, pneumonia, and lung cancer. Now I will try to continue to posts because I love the crazy gob crew, but I will only have access to my phone and shoddy reception. His town is in the sticks, and Wisconsin’s bluffs are not good for the Internets.
We can sing.
Oh dear. Plot Bunny, put the game on hiatus. Your grandfather comes first. I had to put the game that I was GMing on hiatus this week because:
1) I broke my fridge
2) I broke my vacuum cleaner
3) I broke my foot
The first two are dealt with, but the third is really hampering my ability to do stuff, and has shot my ability to GM coherently.
Family comes first. Forget about us. Pick us up again when you are ready.
Twitchy
That is my thought but a fun distraction can be helpful. When we talked about it she really will only be able to check when at the hotel and kind of wants a distraction assuming she can get any reception.
Sorry about the broken things Twitchy. That all sucks. You are rather unlucky. I sympathize.
Me unlucky? No not really. I'm insanely healthy for a 50 year old, I have two adult men who love me and are willing to share me, two great teenagers and a job I love.
I just had a bad run of luck recently.
Hmm
Fair point! Lucky for you the bad luck is temporary. That is a good thing. Also we should do a song since there is some down time for our Goblins.
Sorry to hear that, PlotBunny. Real life always comes before games on the internet.
I spat out the beginning of a song for all of you. Typed it in five minutes! New record!
Sorry about your grandfather, Plotbunny. I thought you were going out for work/vacation, and was about to start a silly song.
I think she would like the silly song anyway.
I'm so sorry to hear that PlotBunny. :( Don't worry about us, we're good at keeping ourselves entertained. Just focus on yourself and your family.
thank you all, unfortunately grandpa did pass away today. I need to put the story on hiatus.
I'm sorry for your loss, Plotbunny. My heart goes out to you and your family.
I'm so sorry for your loss. You and your family are in my prayers. Take all the time that you need.
Hope you're feeling better now, Plotbunny.
Welcome back, Plotbunny!
So I got three baby owlbears in a different game and they need names. Anyone have some ideas
Fluffy, Puffy and Cuddles =)
Or are you looking for something more serious?
Sarah, Percy and Bill! (from Jane Yolen's Owl Babies)
Welcome back, PlotBunny!
For the owlbears, Devourlord, Multibear, and Hank.
It is good to be back like a never ending hoard of bunnies.
I'm going to lose some of my forum activity. Lets say my place was shifted to a less private part of the office, and checking paizo PBPs in view of others probably isn't a good idea...
I should say that I've been feeling kind of lost lately. I've lost touch with who Twitchy is... She's a goal-oriented goblin, and right now there doesn't seem to be a goal to go for. She's not excited about us doing this job for Vorka's sister, and she isn't really sure what we're supposed to do on this job anyway.
Is this an awful thing to admit? I'm thinking of going on hiatus because I cannot figure out what to do with her anymore.
:(
Hmm
Work is totally a thing Mort.
I understand I feel the same way with one of my character's right now. Just let me know if there is anything I can do to help you with that re-connection.
That makes me really sad but I totally understand Twitchy.
If it is just that Twitchy is goal oriented character you could have a number of short term and long term game goals. IE
Short term – learn draconic, find stolen fireworks and stuff, make Ronk more comfortable with reading, Find out where Vorka body went to make sure you do not come down with a undead witch problem… OH and HAVE a honeymoon.
Long term – Make this whole Dread Pirate Gobs thing work (resources? Location? Safety? More Gobs/other?), Find away to deal with the Licktoads, because they will not be happy about you all turning traitor ( Gutwad’s totes going to be cool with everything).
I support the honeymoon! Also we need minions. We still have our vengeance to be had and a hut to burn down too!
On a slightly different note. Twitchy desperately doesn't want to be a leader. Why? Is it a bad experience she had, seeing someone she looked up to fail spectacularly, she gave out advance that lead to something horrible happening, or something else? Depending on the why some plot could be built around that.
And there is that alchemist she ate. Maybe said dead person had people and they are looking for them. Ohh or ghost maybe. But maybe do something with the dead person.
Medge needs her First Mate! A good leader knows she needs good advisers ;)
Medge's number one goal is Get Shinnies Back. After that is becoming a better leader. That way they have their own group of lizard minions heehee
We have a little problem. Most of you gobs don't have high str, so swimming is a problem. Flying may end up being shot by arrows. We may need to take a few days off, so Gurp can fix Ronk before coming back.
I can swim some, but I'm not phenomenal at it either. We're more suited for outdoor skirmishes then an assault on a city. I can propose a plan based on what we have, if we want to do it now, or maybe we should hangout a night, switch spell prep, then go in. To be honest - we don't have much spell arsenal for city sieges either. Possibly entangle may come in handy.
My swim is decent if my strength comes back. Stat damage sucks. Though taking a day in game to prep sounds reasonable to me good luck convincing Ronk. I never thought I would enjoy playing a problem child. My PCs are usually very cooperative and no where near as belligerent as I am in real life.
I've got +5 to Swim. Could we make some kind of cobbled together raft? I've got +3 to Sailor, it could work
I don't think so. The entrances are totally underwater, rafts can't go underwater. You'd need something like a submarine, amd materials to build one are in short supply. If we get caught in a fight underwater against things with a swim speed, its really going to be bad. Note that most fire based stuff won't work underwater, not to mention underwater spellcasting or wand activation is next to impossible.
Hmm. I have an idea. We could hit me with ant haul, stuff as many goblins on my back as possible, then Gurp readies to pop the obscuring mist on the guys shooting, while we make a landing - only problem is I'm not sure how many goblins and slugs I can take to the air.
The other alternative is try to climb up and use the thorns to stealth upon the village, I have an actual climb speed so I should be able to do it, but I'm pretty sure those thorns are poisonous.
There may be a possibility of someone going down solo to open up the hatches, mission impossible - rogue nation style, but I'm loathe to suggest it because there's no telling what's down there, and without watee breathing potions, you can't stay down for long.
Twitchy has ant haul prepared, and can give it to both you and Fluffer. I can fly other goblins in too.
We need to fly everyone in, in a single trip, because we'll be fighting the moment we land, I expect.
Entangle may be better then fog cloud because it won't hamper our own ranged. Entangled imposes a -4 to all ranged attacks. The problem is obscuring mist is centred on ourselves, and we need to move towards the camp. Fog cloud cannot be dismissed unlike obscuring mist.
Are we waiting for anyone?
Sorry for lack of posts, I've been up to my neck in work for the last week. You could even say I've been...
...
...swamped.
But seriously, I'm back now.
Very funny.
*splashes into a mud puddle near Gurp to ensure the muck splatters on Gurp*
Now, you're swamped ;)
Are you ok not being mounted, Ronk, because of str penalties?
Well currently Ronk is pouting and was kicking a stick but I as to the mounted thing I am good either way. You are another player. But Ronk is always happy to look important and he does from on top of a King.
Someone please make Ronk put on the bandages so I can get on regaining my strength. Currently Ronk only knows those things smell weird. Currently I am rather gimped because the dice roller is still pissed about what ever Gurp did to its cat.
Oh and on a different note to get into the proper mindset to post for our game Plotbunny will listen clips of the minions from the Minions movie and Despicable Me.
Thats fairly apt...where's Gru? I watched all the movies, loved them. Especially what he did at the vendor stand, re: Anges's unicorn =)

Ronk, put on the bandages.
Everyone else, I think I really need to go on hiatus here. I've been flailing around, trying to find my voice again, and it's just not working. All my other games are quiet... I should be posting tons of songs in this one just to get us going.
Maybe a filk of Dream the Impossible Dream (scheme the impossible scheme?)
But everytime I try, the voice isn't there. I think that Twitchy needs to get pregnant or sick or something. Can I have a leave of absence, or do you want me to quit altogether so you can get another player?
Hmm
I am very sorry to hear that. I have no desire to find another player. I hope you find your gaming voice agian. You are an excellent role player
Also Ronk would be more than happy to work for a baby ;)
