Yay! And you now have another NPC bad guy that you could throw against us...
Drake, any comments to Stefan's post?
Anselm, you've been gone awhile. Still around?
If we lost Anselm, you guys okay with proceeding with just 4?
I'm ok with it.
Same here.
Just a quick note to say that I suddenly have a lot going on in my life, and my posting regularity might be going down for the next few days.
Between our Diplomacy rolls, I'd say we're really making friends in Ravengro.
Bogged down by work but I will update tomorrow without a doubt!
Hey guys, sorry for dropping off the face of the earth this weekend. I took a role in a play at the last minute to replace a guy who had to drop out unexpectedly and we open tomorrow night and I have a lot of lines to learn so I won't be able to post until Tuesday probably.
I have not abandoned you, just the ebbs and flow of work. I like the group and will update thread very soon.
I totally get that!
Still here, just had problems with my PC. Bought a new one yesterday so hopefully no more issues from now own. Please hang in there!
Hi, folks.
Just checking to make sure that this campaign is still indeed alive.
One of my other PbPs just folded abruptly with no fanfare, and I'm hoping that's not the case here.
I have not abandoned you. Just life's been kind of hectic and I am happy to report I got engaged over Valentine's weekend! Anyway, posting should become very regular from now on and I hope you guys stick with the game!
Congratulations!
I know this PbP has been slow to pick up momentum, primarily due to my slow posting, but other than Dr. Stefan and Gregorius, are you guys still interested in continuing? I am back for good now, but is it too late?
I'm ready to drop after this last absence. Slow play is the bane of PbP for me, and the lack of communication about schedules and commitments doesn't help the matter. I find myself frustrated when I see this thread, rather than happy like I should be. Good luck to all you guys, a great group of RPers here, I hope your campaign goes well. Congrats on the engagement Lucendar, cheers!
I appreciate the honesty, Drake. Good luck to you as well. How about Mortimer and Anselm? You feel like continuing? I understand it was my absence that doomed this PbP, which is a shame, because it was a great cast of characters, with a lot of potential, especially with Gregorius and Dr. Stefan's backgrounds.
I'm still here.
Great, thanks Mortimer. Just waiting for Anselm to respond.
Sorry to see you go, Drake, but I totally understand!
Just to let you all know: I am probably going to post a recruitment thread for my own PbP (my first!) sometime soon. (I'm debating between three ideas.)
I'll mention it again when it's up.
Great news, Haladir. Look forward to it.
So let's say Anselm has disappeared, as I suspect. Do we continue with just 3? Any suggestions would be recommended.
I'd recommend that you send a PM to Chris to see if he's still interested in continuing. (It's possible he doesn't check the boards during the business day.) Assuming that's a "no..."
1) If you had been considering alternates from the original recruitment thread, you could PM one or two to see if they'd be interested.
2) You could post to the Recruitment thread, saying that the campaign has two openings for Ravengro-based PCs and see who shows up.
3) If you know of a player (or two) you'd like to invite directly, send him/her a PM, and just let him/her join.
4) We could continue with three players, with you running one or more of the departing PCs as NPCs, if need be. (We'd probably need them-- a 3-PC party with no cleric might not go so well for us!)
Wow, didn't expect so many options. LOL! Already sent PM, waiting on response.
Great, we continue forward!
We might need a local to show us the ropes around Ravengro. :)
Anyone wants to open a slot in the recruitment thread?
I'd feel more comfortable with another player. Maybe another Rogue-type, but I'm content to continue.
Hey, folks. Nothing bad, but I may not be able to post for a few days.
I'll post as soon as I can.
Game can't seem to catch momentum.
Sorry for not catching up over the weekend like I'd planned. Real life got unexpectedly... complicated.
Anyway, I think I'm really back now.
Sorry to see you go, Drake, but I totally understand!
Just to let you all know: I am probably going to post a recruitment thread for my own PbP (my first!) sometime soon. (I'm debating between three ideas.)
I'll mention it again when it's up.
I have an interest check thread now on the Recruitment board.
Simon may have resigned, but is Drake still with us as we explore this crypt?
Looks like we lost Anselm too. Should I re-recruit 2 players?
I'd say "yes."
Yup.
Please chime in on the applicants in the recruitment thread and help me out. Your opinion counts as to who we choose. I'm thinking 2 players, since Anselm is gone as well.
I'm liking Esme and Harold.
We're still lacking in the Trapspringer and Face categories, but those two are the my favourite over-all characters.
The pool seems a bit thin. I posted to my other PbP that this one has an opening. Would you consider keeping the poll open another day or so?
I also like Esme and Harold so far.
Harold Wainright, reporting for duty :-)
Welcome! Glad to have you onboard.
Welcome Harold! I will get you into the game very soon. Could you expand on your connection to the Professor? For game purposes, you received news of his death, but unforeseen circumstances (overturned cart on the road, etc.) delayed your arrival and you are arriving 2 days late for the funeral.
Welcome Harold!
Glad to be aboard :-)
As to how Harold knew the Professor, and why he was delayed, how about the following:
Thanks, Harald! That works well.
Harold, you arrived late at night in Ravengro and you were making your way to the inn when you hear the screams, so you can post as well in the Gameplay thread.
Hey-- before the new scene begins in earnest, we should figure out who's holding the 5 cure light wounds and 2 lesser restoration potions.
I'd pose that each of the PCs who went to the crypt take one of the cure potions, and the lesser restoration potions should be considered party resoources. I'd suggest that our de facto healers (Gregorius and Stefan) hold them until needed.
If our departed friends just happen to leave their stuff behind after disappearing mysteriously, well...
Hi, folks.
I wanted to give you all a heads-up that I'll be going silent the week after next. My family is going to England on vacation for a week. We're flying out of JFK a week from tomorrow.
Feel free to GMPC Stefan while I'm away.
Does no one want to rp with new player? :)
