In The Court of Madness

Game Master hallowsinder

Well, as long as I'm keeping him busy I suppose :p

Where is cloudy person at the moment anyway? I lost track of him when Nianju climbed the wall.

Cloudy is on top of the wall, moving toward the point (on top of the wall) that's closest to the helmet guy.

Hmm, alrighty. Fairly close to Nianju then :)

Let me know if I accidentally run over you 'cause I didn't see you there. :P

heh, he's mainly hiding from those in the courtyard below, not invisible

Well, I'm pretty sure that unless he makes himself known to the cloud, it doesn't know where he is at the moment.

Well he just shot at the guy you're trying to talk to, and hasn't had a chance to make another stealth roll yet :p I just spoilered those in the last post to keep them separate.

Arg! If you just killed him I'm not going to let you live it down!

lol, nope it missed

Good!

Who're we waiting on!?

Not sure.. the DM maybe?

Sorry bout that guys. I left a big assignment to last second and it didn't go well. :(

:( Sorry to hear.

*Hugz*

Wishing you all the very best.

I'm assuming that the Captain is attacking Mr. Big. Since Mr. Big has 15' reach at least some of the soldiers and/or the Captain will need to move more than 5' to get into range and thus generates an AoO. A lot will depend on what the Captain's readied action was on whether he moves immediately after Mr. Big slicing and dicing the troops or if the readied action was waiting for the troops to provide the distraction.

If the Captain moved first, he will get the AoO, otherwise it will be one of the squishies. Either way I think Mr. Big is about to go down.

Well, that and AA only applies to melee combat.

Yep, darn lots of squishies!

Since I might be off for the next little bit.
Some Stabilize Rolls.
-17 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11 Bleeds.
-18 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20 Bleeds.
-19 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (1) + 6 = 7 Bleeds.
-20 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (13) + 6 = 19 Bleeds.
-21 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9 = -22hp = Dead.

So 5 rounds until Mr. Big goes to the big nest in the sky.

Just so everybody (and the DM) knows, I've got a much-needed vacation coming up, and am unlikely to post from sometime this Friday afternoon (the 19th) until Tuesday the 23rd (or possibly Wednesday the 24th). DM, feel free to NPC Niulamayu as necessary during that time, and please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

I personally will be very erratic until after the 27th. You could stick around, but I probably won't get us through more than 1 or 2 rounds.

Still watching and keeping u with what every one is doing.

Yeah.. Final project, exams ... Argh.. You guys would probably be better served reconvening on the 28th. See you then if you wish to continue!

This is just a reminder that I'm about to leave for vacation and will be back sometime on Tuesday or Wednesday of next week (the 22nd or 24th).

Happy vacation! :)

Enjoy your vacation!

Have a good time man!

Thanks, all! I'm back now, and despite not reading your well-wishes until now, I am pleased to report that I followed the imperatives they contained.

good news :) Still have a few days to wait before this thing gets going again though.

Ah, that was a lovely scene of the Captain monologuing... with a marvelous ending... :)

I concur!

Cloudy, I applaud you choice of wands... a most excellent collection! :)

*shifty eyes*

I'll be gone beginning this Thursday around noon and won't be back until Monday night or Tuesday morning.

It's possible that I'll be able to post once a day or so while I'm gone, but not clear at this time.

Well, if you can post once a day, I don't think we'll notice the difference at the current pace.

Should we have gotten XP for the castle fight? (granted Mr. Big was knocked out for most of it... :)

Indeed. CR 3 + 15 CR 1/3, split between everyone (as even Xane was distracting support from arriving).

So 2825 / 6 = 470* for everyone?

* It's actually 470.83333333333333333333333333333, but...

Thanks for the math cloudy!

Indeed, thank you!

No, no. Clearly he's a mile and a half ahead...;)

You know, I never thought to ask. Can anyone in the party heal besides me?

Not me. I think Cloudy-boy had a wand?

Mr. Big has some potions... but that is all.

I'd be happy to pour some down your beak, but keeping the armored figure from finishing you (More than they already have) seems to be a better thing for Xane to do atm.

Wishing every one all the very best.

Man, I don't like the math on this. I can only hit him on a 20. I suspect he can hit me way easier.

Um...just a question...it has been a while. What level should people be?

Not counting other adjustments, just the 'general' level that every one is at? Level 1? Level 3? Some where in between?

Very much cheers to all.

Think we're all still pretty much at level 3 where we started. There's been less than a half dozen combats and not everyone was involved in them all.
