Picking a fight with the Molthune scouts would have involved a CR 5 encounter.

The four half elves

Half orc leader

All their favored enemy would have been replaced by human, so it'd get potentially painful considering the half elves are immune to sleep effects and would just wake their leader up.

There are things up to CR6 on the random encounter table. I may reroll if I feel it's inappropriate(like throwing a Yeti at level 1 characters in Reign of Winter), but not all the time, as I prefer to let dice fall as they may.

Do not expect that everything on the random encounter table = we should fight it.

They also have been taken off the random encounter table since story wise they're headed back to report.

Waiting for people to decide if they want to sidetrack to abandoned two humanoid dwelling or continue in same direction.


AC8 / HP6

From my end, and for future reference - 'engage' does not necessarily mean a fight.

In the previous encounter, I meant we should address them, is all.

Grand Lodge

Ok. I was totally mistaken then.


AC8 / HP6

Mort, do we know if Rhyna follows Erastil or Desna?

I remember the temple had images of both Gods in their own alcoves, but there was representation of others too.

hey all, sorry about the delay, doing the family thing, I will go check the game posts :-)


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

Rhyna follows Erastil. And gee you like garlic? Sometime back raw garlic was the kind of thing that would get me running away. Heh.


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

Your Dex is 4 lower then your strength (once shapeshift is on) so I'm not sure how you're getting a +5 to hit with sling.

Also slings have 30 ft range increment so there's a further - 2 to hit. But with that high roll, you hit anyway.


AC8 / HP6

Yeah, I like garlic a lot - not enough to rub myself with it mind you, but I use it on a LOT of cooking ;)

Complain about the new boards here!

Hey, I've got sunlight sensitivity, one of my canines is twisted and pointed like little fang, and the worst thing is I don't get dark vision.

Soy sauce mixed with chopped raw garlic. Awesome for all your pork and beef dipping needs =)

I love garlic, all of the marinades or dry rubs I make have garlic, the beef jerky, any pasta sauces or stir-fries... mmmm garlic


AC8 / HP6

Guys, was taking a list of the items on the loot list, and would like to have Hedran carrying some, or are we assuming there is a 'pool' of items we can access at any time?

Examples are:

MW Mighty [+2] Composite Longbow
Potion of CLW x2
Wand of Magic Missile (11/11)
Oil of Magic Weapon x1

Grand Lodge

Male Dhampir DEAD

Items in the 'pool' can be accessed at any time outside combat; we have a Bag of Holding, after all.

I'll note down that you have claimed those items.


Male Human Soldier (Army Infantry)/3, Security Guard/17

Hi. At a family gathering. No outlets at the picnic area. Using a tablet and a half empty battery pack. I'll stay as long as I can.


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

No worries I don't think anyones going anywhere for a while. Or you could put Sylvan as language known and talk to plants =P

Hey, I'm off tonight and didn't sleep much last night, so I'm about to doze off. If we move on soon and get in a fight, go ahead and bot Ratel and Bear. I'm back to my regular shifts tomorrow, post more then.


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

No worries we just take a chill pill for now. GM is rather busy at work anyway.(Had to skip gym yesterday)

Anyway, it's labourday so Happy Labour day Americans!

And going for a movie tonight.


Male Human Soldier (Army Infantry)/3, Security Guard/17

Watching anything interesting?


Male Human Soldier (Army Infantry)/3, Security Guard/17

Well, at least I'm working Tomorrow.

Complain about the new boards here!

Going for a blood donation, only one hand to type with for a bit.

25 game posts, I guess I have some reading to do.


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

Out with BF.

Grand Lodge

I'll be dropping out of this game. I'm finding the post rate is too much for me to keep up with and I'm not having fun. I'm sorry if this leaves the game in a lurch.


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

Azmythe - sorry to see you go, best of luck for future endeavors. And don't feel bad about it - Hmm said the very same thing on my Reign of Winter campaign. Which I completely understand, RL comes first.

Ok Gang - how do you want me to handle this - re recruit one more or just proceed with current party. There is a possibility to pick up an NPC cleric in this book or the next.

Grand Lodge

Male Dhampir DEAD

I am okay with either option - I think we can probably muddle through (since we still have multiple wand users), as is, but if people want to re-recruit, that is fine, as well.


Male Human Paladin 9 | HP 72/99 |AC 27/T12/FF26 | F+11/R+9/W+12 | CMB +13/CMD 24 | init + 2 | Perc + 9 | Diplomacy + 15 | LoH 9/9 | Smite 3/3 | Divine Bond 9/9 min. 2/2 per day

I'm ok either way as well. I know either way Mort will keep the pace moving.

If we stick with four, should I look at Multi-classing Ratel a couple of levels to cast spells?


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

The issue is whether we want to take a gamble that the others in recruitment thread can get along with the party and can keep the pace.


AC8 / HP6

I am sorry to see you leave Azmythe, mainly because your character is unique to the group. And I do understand you - truth is the breakneck speed of the game means certain events (regardless of how much you would like to participate or be a part of them) will completely pass you by... Which can be frustrating and give you a feeling the game goes on 'regardless' of you.

As for continuing the game, I (still) worry about our buffing/divine/healing/condition removal/etc abilities. I would like to recruit someone with those strengths.


Male Human Soldier (Army Infantry)/3, Security Guard/17

Sorry to see you go, Azy. Maybe recruiting a Cleric is a good idea.


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

Anyway also, since Hedran brought it up(I know I speed around too much) - how many people should I wait for on moving things?

I mean I do allow retconing and all...


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

Anyway yes, sent out invite, since I don't like disappointing people, I'll wait on yes/no answers before I send out the next invite. So this might take a while.


Male Human Soldier (Army Infantry)/3, Security Guard/17

I should like to point out that, should it be necessary, I can run two PCs. I've done it before.


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

I can GMPC myself if need. Just ask Nigel. When we did Strange Aeons solo, he ended up with two NPCs tagging along with him and some wtf "party" conversations.


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

Anyway from the GM perspective, it's at higher levels where the lack of casting starts rearing its ugly head.

Grand Lodge

Male Dhampir DEAD

*nods*

If necessary, we should be able to cope at low levels just fine, even without a GMPC.

That said, I am fine with adding an additional player, if they are interested.


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

Also waiting on whether the group wants to take Edran in or not since as GM there will be different scenes to describe should he be taken in or not.

If we are 5, I say wait for at least three of the players?

Ummm, wait for three to what?


AC8 / HP6

Before moving things :D


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

Okie dokie.


Male Human Paladin 9 | HP 72/99 |AC 27/T12/FF26 | F+11/R+9/W+12 | CMB +13/CMD 24 | init + 2 | Perc + 9 | Diplomacy + 15 | LoH 9/9 | Smite 3/3 | Divine Bond 9/9 min. 2/2 per day

If that's the case let's stay at four and 'move things' on two...

Part of the way we keep things moving is letting someone take the lead and get us to the next point, instead of waiting for someone to 'agree'

If we have to have a cleric Ratel can multi class.


AC8 / HP6

Doesn't have to be a cleric I think - there are other options which would work just as fine I think.


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

The gameplay and discussion tabs are a little wonky. They keep indicating I have posts unread when I've been reading, concentiously everything.


AC8 / HP6

Yep, noticed it also....


Male Human Paladin 9 | HP 72/99 |AC 27/T12/FF26 | F+11/R+9/W+12 | CMB +13/CMD 24 | init + 2 | Perc + 9 | Diplomacy + 15 | LoH 9/9 | Smite 3/3 | Divine Bond 9/9 min. 2/2 per day

same...

Ok about the Three or two people to 'keep things moving.' I'm not trying to be a curmudgeon, so I apologize if I sounded abrasive.

Mort does a pretty good job of slowing things down when she needs to. When we come to a 'fork in the road' so to speak.

I just like the pace, even if it's a little hectic at times. It's nice to be in a game where it feels like things are moving. I still read all the posts and comment on anything that tickles my fancy. But I am used to it and I have a lot of time most of the time (though not as much as I used to).

But I would rather have a conversation about it than lose people who want to be in the game. So please don't just 'give in' because I asked to stay at four people.


AC8 / HP6

Doesn't sound abrasive to me :D

Didn't actually realize you had suggested we stayed at 4 players.


1 person marked this as a favorite.
Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

I know one of the key defining things about me is I’m always keen on keeping things moving. I don’t deny that I may have gone overboard at times. But for me as a GM I’m wondering where to draw that line, I’ve done like, if someone indicates a direction to proceed, game moves kind of thing.

It doesn’t exactly help that I will honestly confess I suffer from PBP ADHD.

yeah, that's sort of what I implied in the first line...


Strange Aeons Grp 2 |

I did send the person an invite, so if that person accepts, it'll take place. That's why I asked your opinions before sending out :o


Male Human Paladin 9 | HP 72/99 |AC 27/T12/FF26 | F+11/R+9/W+12 | CMB +13/CMD 24 | init + 2 | Perc + 9 | Diplomacy + 15 | LoH 9/9 | Smite 3/3 | Divine Bond 9/9 min. 2/2 per day

The speak with animals is two minutes, once combat was immediately over was it still up? If so Ratel will go talk to the lynx.
