I am still adding a level to bring him to 6th. Should be updated tomorrow.

This is a little premature, but wanted to get it out of the way while it's fresh in my head. I have been spending my whole Saturday morning updating his profile and also meticulously counting the weight of every gear he has to make sure he is no longer encumbered. 30.5 lbs worth of weight to be right under 33lbs. If anyone was curious, I have an assortment of 60 arrows, which makes up to be 9 pounds.

Kuriq will be selling his mundane bag, chain belt, and studded leather. +21gp. (somehow I bought a belt of incredible resistance last scenario and forgot to sell my chain belt)

And will be upgrading his gear with a Cloak of Reistance +1, Mithral Shirt, Handy Haversack, Weapon Blanch x 2 applied to 20 silver arrows (not durable). -4541gp.

ill have one up for my Familiar here soon

"Squawk!"

Theodric and his familiar have their sheets ready to go.

When do you plan to start this? Is it part of the offerings during PbP Gameday VI? I realize we're unlikely to finish during that time.
Thanks,
Larry

Beneath a stained wooden table at the Grog Pit, Scratch crouches next to her master's legs, tail twitching, watching a rat scurry across the floor of the bar. As the rat pauses to nibble on the rind of a moldy piece of cheese, she pounces.
Prey clutched in her fangs as her jaws strangle the life out of the rat, Scratch returns to her temporary lair. After displaying her kill to "Long" Beau, she makes short work of tearing its flesh and consuming it whole.
Her raspy tongue flashes, cleaning her whiskers and licking her paws, savoring the rat's fresh blood.

we will be starting this on Oct 5th, unfortunately this is not offered in the list of PbP Gameday that they have up so I can not put this in as one

Just ask Jesse to add it to the list.

this is now part of Game Day VI pbp

Can you activate the gameplay thread, so we can dot in? Thanks.

Kuriq just finished with the special. After work I'll get all his new information up! Am ready to roll.

all of shiva's stats are now up to date online.

so i must ask people to be patient the player of elsbeth is new to the play by post.

Heads-Up:

I'll be in Ireland on business (Blue-Job Chrome Polish--check it out) and pleasure (34th wedding anniversary October 15) over the next couple of weeks.

I have my wife's blessing to post every day, but it'll usually be in the evenings over there.

I love my wife, so I'll probably not post at all on October 15.

Larry

ok so the way i see it is i think that guys name is our next lead that we get to go track down. GM if im wrong please say so but that just my point of view.

I will neither confirm or deny, you will only get plot poi ts if absolutely lost and dunno what to do

We're in the middle of what's left of Hurricane Ophelia. We might lose power shortly, and no one knows for how long. I will continue to post as long as it's possible. If I lose connectivity, I'll post again as soon as we get it back.

We're in The G Hotel in Galway. There are worse places to be in a hurricane.

We're scheduled to leave Ireland and return to Seattle on Thursday.

Larry

I am going to be out for the next few days recovering from a surgery. I am unsure of the recovery time, but I hope to be back in a few days, a week at the latest. Please feel free to bot me while I am gone.

Speedy recovery, Henrick!

Running a small local con at the Jet City Comic Show Saturday and Sunday, so my posts over the weekend will likely be short and sweet, lacking my usual excessive verbosity.

The theater of the mind is usually great fun. However, an abrupt transition to the map at the initiation of combat can sometimes be confusing--and with this particular beastie, quite unpleasant, it seems.
Please be gentle. ;-)

just a few areas have maps, and other areas that don't have maps, have random encounters, so no promises of it being nice or easy, or hard and mean

I sent Elsbeth a PM, asking if she plans to rejoin us.

Can we talk about pacing for this game? I just looked back at recruitment and realized we never had this discussion.

What's the expected posting rate, and what's the plan for keeping things moving.

At the moment we've been waiting ~5 days for a player with 8 total posts in a pbp that's been going on for over a month who hasn't posted anything on the forums in over 3 weeks.

Good point Theodric, I've made the assumption like most PBP games we make a posting rate of average 1/day. Guess we should turn to the GM.

@SapphireFox Whats your expectation for posting rate? And what of players on long absences (Explained or unexplained).

I see Elsbeth posted in gameplay which is fantastic.

What's our plans/policies going forward to help keep a healthy pace?

ok, so I am setting this in effect, I would like everyone to be able to post once a day outside of combat, and every other day in combat if it isn't your turn, I don't bot so if you want botted please designate someone to bot you, or you will be put on Delay till you return.

during the weekend, if you post once a day cool, if you post once a weekend thats fine.

I will be updating the game tonight on the play through when I get to work, and I will make sure to keep an eye on the game and keep it moving, if you fail to post every other day in combat or the end of the second day you haven't posted your turn and your botter has not posted, you will be on delay till your next turn.

Fair enough? if there are any questions or issue let me know, I know everyone suggests being botted, though the reason I don't is I know the fights, and even though I can be fair, if I were to be honest, I wouldn't be, and I know I don't know the builds of your own characters as well as you or who you instruct to bot you.

That's fair and reasonable to me. If I require botting, I'll let someone know in advance and give comprehensive bot instructions. I'll be happy to help bot others too.

Sounds good, thank for taking the time to sort this out.

I apologize to the group, but I'm going to have to withdraw from this module. Thank you all for the effort you have put into it.

Enjoy the game!

GM, please delete "Long" Beau and Scratch from the list of active players/characters.

have a good one Beau

also as a heads up, with the up coming holidays such as thanks giving and christmas, I do not expect to post normally during those weeks, as I know people travel to family and other activities, however the week after we should get back to normal posting.

ok I will ask for Henric if someone wouldn't mind botting him as I have not heard from him since the surgery, unsure if he has read what I have stated about playing, otherwise if there is no volunteers I will delay him

i would say delay this fight cause there not much he can do in this one.

Yep - I say let's delay him. ;)

Actually, I have been paying attention, but then ended up swamped with work and then travel.

I will be out for Tues-Sunday of this week, though, and the next week I will be swamped with work and my daughter's robotics team competition. But I should be able to chime in.

I apologise in advance for Kuriq's antics, don't mean to force the game in a certain direction but I will roleplay him true to his character. But feel free to intervene, hinder him in any way you like to steer the direction of the game else where, I will gladly (Kuriq will grumbly) accommodate it.

normally i don't try and interfere with RP, it usually always ends up fun, and I support what you are doing character wise, I would not be doing my job if I didn't at least advise, and follow through on the group decision

well i dont see this going anywhere and this is our only lead besides the lamplighters. so if we kill this guy then i feel like were gonna hit a dead end and stall the game out.

Not sure if we would go anywhere with the guy either, a 30 intimidate check did nothing on him. Kuriq's intent was hurt to make him talk.. and maybe death after.. depending on how that talk went..

well considering one of the goals was to get evidence, there was the cloth that was in the pig pen of hungry hogs that fulfills that requirement, and possibly more, and don't forget let your goals be your guide, and rumors as well

Ok i didnt know we were looking for cloth and what not in here. And we do have the lamplighters still that we can look into.

Elsbeth will look around to see if there is anything that stands out.
perception: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (18) + 12 = 30

Sorry about the last post my phone posted it Under the discussion and not the game play I will use the computer to update when I get off of work

Hey all, notice we've been very inconsistent in posting rate. Appreciate that this game doesn't get under attention.

Also GM, could you on a certain basis, perhaps at the start of the month, give us an approximate idea of how far we are along the module?

Hey GM, been about 5 days since we last heard from you. I think we're waiting on an update for Kuriq's rousing.
