Fear Checks:
Fear is the mind collecting itself from a quick shock thus it is a Wisdom check.

A character should make a Fear save when facing overwhelming odds and/or immediate, dire physical danger. Fear saves can also be used to test the morale of the heroes' foes.

Horror Checks:
Horror is the attempt of trying to process the true threat of a scene, thus it is an Intelligence check.

Between the boards and end of summer vacations, what a mess.

Anyway, let's get this rolling once more.

We're going to have the two new PCs start together and have a chance encounter on the road as this IS Ravenloft after all :-).


Shadow's Status

To facilitate, let's say that Twang and Vasilios were part of an adventuring group in Absolom and knew Nezter in passing as that is where he hails from as well.


Works for me!

Cool by me!


Posted to all games:
Starting in one week, on Saturday the 21st, I will be completely offline until either Sunday the 30th or Monday the 1st. I am going on an international trip to Africa and internet there is practically nonexistent for uses such as playing PbP. If I am a player, please bot me. If I'm your GM, sorry for the delay. I'll be back. Promise.


Shadow's Status

Yeah sorry bad month there. Tomorrow I will dedicate the afternoon to getting my games up and running once more.


Shadow's Status

I will get the group to Harmonia tomorrow.


Shadow's Status

Slow going as we have been I've got a number of interesting Ravenloft adventures to run so we'll be the tortoise and not the hare...


Shadow's Status

We appear to be down to 4 PCs again.

As you have all been posting pretty frequently we will keep it at that number and I will simply scale future encounters accordingly.

Thanks for hanging in there despite my own posting irregularities these past few months.


You go it, boss. :)

God bless the United States Military and thank all soldiers past and present for the gift of freedom. My heroes.

So, raise your hand if you want/need a magic wand/staff/screwdriver.

/me raises hand.


Meh. I'm more of the type.

Sorry, I don't get what you mean. Dumbass Spaniard... :D


Wow. I completely missed a word there, and an important one at that! Meant to say, "more of the stabby type"

Ah, I see. You might be happy with the sword, then, I guess.

So, we've got a Warlock and that. Anyone?


For the short sword, I'd like a sword of wounding, if you approve. I was looking into all kinds of serious until I noticed that I was in the homebrew section of the wiki.

Approved.

Umm... How many of us are still here?


Shadow's Status

I know that Nezter and Carella are active in other games I run, let's see when they check in over here. After how bad the boards were in the fall I'm never sure if games are updating for people or not these days.

<-- English literature teacher


Oooohhhh. An English Lit teacher!
Mind if I pick your brain?

I'll assume no. :)

I need a piece from about 500 years ago (or in that general poetic style) that is all about boasting in one's own strength that would take about a minute (maybe 72 seconds) to recite. It's for another game. I tried to look up some Beowulf stuff, but it's all too short.

IIRC, Beowulf is a little bit older than 500 years. Maybe something from Tamburlain?


Sure. I, clearly, am not a literature person.

Beowolf is one of the oldest stories on record...

Try Chaucer, the knights tale.

Of Atthenes he was lord and governour,
And in his tyme swich a conquerour,
That gretter was ther noon under the sonne.
Ful many a riche contree hadde he wonne,
What with his wysdom and his chivalrie;
He conquered al the regne of Femenye,
That whilom was ycleped Scithia,

Map finally up!

All the group knows is that this is where the Crown was rumored to be. Who has it and what they are doing with it was never revealed only that the place was dangerous. And it is clearly a horrific place though it not become dangerous, yet.


Shadow's Status

I know we have been slow for a while so I wanted to gauge interest in continuing here. Only 4 PCs and still a bit slow. We all still up for this?


Honestly, I'm neutral in the matter. Things have never been quick for me and I don't have nearly as much invested as the others.

I'm ok with going on.

I'm still in, but honestly quite neutral about this game.


Shadow's Status

OK, there is enough interest to continue and so we shall.


Shadow's Status

With a heavy heart I have decided to close this thread.

I had a number of modules I wanted to run for this group but unfortunately I have things in RL that I need to get to and the boards have been preventing me from doing that. Sand runs through the hourglass on me much quicker, or at least I am feeling it more than I was 3 years ago.

My apologies for this I was enjoying running the game for a number of years and this is the second one I ever started running on these boards.

Thank you all for your participation in this game and perhaps when things settle down we can explore resurrecting this one but no guarantees.


Copy that. Reality comes first. Good luck!

Take care of yourself. I understand how things change. Good luck. I've enjoyed every game of your's I have been in.
