I'd like to officially welcome Lajara to the party!
Lajara is built for melee combat, right?
Thank you Carthas!! - yes, she is ranger with 2h combat style; archetypes that eliminate spell casting and animal companion; so she is focused on swordplay.
Feel free to look at her sheet, no spoilers there.
Also playing her 10 charisma up with the short verbal answers.
Excellent. Maybe I can use your arrival to go back to Carthas's original design, that being a ranged combatant/mad bomber style alchemist instead of using my mutagen to be one of the main melee combatants.
I will note that I have tested my weather generator a couple times and it properly randomly disperses seasonally appropriate weather. But when I go to generate for the game it only comes up as massive amounts of snow lol.
I like the blizzard snowfall - add an element (environment) not always included!
@Carthas I can take up stabbing things if your concept was more bomb throwing alchemist; go for it.
Wait, what centaur thing?
Yorc is a centaur
I did not know that. That clarifies things.
Lahara was gonna circle back to that….
Sorry guys, been having computer issues. I am unavailable from Wednesday to January 2, so I think it best to stop here, and we can open with Linder's response to Charles.
Merry Christmas and have a happy holiday season!
Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays!!
Happy New Year everyone! Hopefully everything went well and you'd like to start up again!
Happy New Year!! Looking forward to continuing!
Happy New Year! Ready when you are.
Sorry guys! I posted on Monday but apparently the site ate my post! I'll get it back up later today.
yeah did the same to at least one of my own GM posts this last week...
I am at Disney World until the 20th.
Brought my laptop but no power cord so that sucks.
Unless I find a cord I am not going to be on much until I get back to New York. Laptop is at 20%.
Enjoy the House of Mouse!! See you on the 20th!
No worries, have fun Charles!
I'll post tomorrow. Been feeling out of it since last Thursday, sorry for the lack of communication.
Stairs in the dining hall? Sound good to everybody?
sounds good to me
Seems like a good plan!
I will get a post up this weekend. The site has been eating my posts all week and its getting depressing at this point.
Having invited Dearga over to help, you are now all level 6.
Hopefully the site works today.
Can everyone let me know when you've levelled your character to level 6, then I will move on.
Also, do you want to go right back down stairs or explore up stairs a bit?
I am out of town; but should have Lajara leveled up Thursday
Sorry for any delay

I am actually going on vacation starting Friday, I thought it was the week after. I will move the game ahead when I am back on the 28, just let me know what you want to do.
Also, I will need to take a leave of absence here from April 1 to until the end of October. My wife and I have managed to get everything we need together to hike the Pacific Crest Trail from Mexico to Canada and we are going to take the opportunity to do that. I know that that is a long break and wanted to get your opinion on what you would like to do. I personally would prefer to put the game on hold and then resume it, with the intent of getting through clearing this fort before I leave. I am also open to finding you another GM to run the game for you if you would prefer. Let me know your thoughts.
I would prefer you have a wonderful time on your hike (what a wonderful opportunity! Enjoy!!) and we restart with you after.
Same - I'm fine with a leave of absence and then resuming the game when you return. If you'd like, we can take care to post in the thread to keep the game from going inactive.
yeah i agree, definitely prefer to just go on hold for a while and come back to it. these games go for so long on the forum that we should all still be here when you get back

Well after a good chunk of time of this nonsense I was finally able to log in again. Had to finally reinstall chrome!
So I just saw the level up thing and will do so tonight.
Yeah the site was being pretty annoying a couple weeks ago. Post is up, make sure you are levelled!
Wooo! Max damage bomb!
I am really sorry for the delay, and will try to get a 'final' post up next week. I injured my lower leg early this week and have been working closely with a physiotherapist and doing a bunch of extra exercises and stuff to rehab it before my trip, so I have been a bit distracted and overwhelmed at the moment.
Wanted to let you guys know.
I hope you heal up so you can enjoy your trip; take care of yourself! No worries!
Thank you for your support, and I will be in need of it again.
This is not how I wanted to leave the game hanging (I will return) but over the weekend my grandmother passed away. I am leaving early to fly out and visit family and hopefully attend the funeral depending on the time frame.
I have no energy right now to make a pleasant wrap up post. I know that you all are going to be okay with that, but I wish things had gone better over the last two weeks so that I could close this out on a better note. You all deserved at least that.
I hope you all have a wonderful summer, I am sure I will once I have had time to settle my mind. You will all be in my thoughts, or at least your characters antics will be. Turning over what is happening in game in my mind is a great past time.
With great fondness, DM Rostam.
Sorry you are having to deal with so much.
I am sorry for the delayed message, been trying to login for a week and am only now able to.
I am also sorry that I can no longer DM for you. I wish I could live up to the promise of coming back, I truly enjoyed running it, but with the time away I've had a chance to review many things and gaming is something I need to cut back on for my mental health.
Interacting with all of you, and creating this story was amazing and a wonderful experience. But in many things in my life I had far too high expectations on myself and spending 60-90 minutes everyday running online campaigns was taking a toll on me on top of other things. Unfortunately for now I need to fully step away.
Leaving this behind is hard, due to all the joy you've helped add to my life.
If you ever want to talk feel free to reach out to me at connor.mckay@ymail.com and we can find a more convenient way to get in touch. If you need support or someone to listen while you are going through something I am more than willing to help as well.
I dont know how to properly sign off on a post like this, but just know that I am greatful to have known you all and sorry for leaving like this.
All the best, DM Rostam
