Its "A" Dungeon (Inactive)

Game Master Terquem

Still here, excitedly following the Royals into the post season!

Man, I really hope he is okay. It's fine if he just got sick of me, but I hope he is okay.

Yeah, hopefully he's gone full black ops and just can't say anything until he gets back from toppling dictators or something.

I agree, it is worrisome. Too bad no one knows his secret identity.

I didn't know the Royals had a post season. I mean, being a Royal is a life long career of speeches, ribbon cutting, charities, etc. It is not exactly seasonal work.

Okay, well it's time, I suppose to make the hard choice. Do we try to recruit fourth level Wizard, or end this? I don't see it going on with just three players, but if that's what you three would like to do, I'll give it a go.

I'd hate to see this end. To let such epic entertainment slip away just seems wrong. I see our options as:
1. Reviving the recruitment thread, see what fish we get and make a choice.
2. If no one seems suitable, then put the thread on ice. Should Berenwyr re-emerge, Terquem could PM us to bring the gang back to life.
3. We could pull out of the dungeon and venture to another one of Terquem's realities.

Good options Ballar, I have re awakened the recruitment thread, but that tends to be less effective than creating an all new recruitment, so we will wait and see what happens

As to 3, I like this game. I've looked at some of the other games and they don't really interest me. I think the fact that we blur the lines a bit is helpful. Terquem has his way of running a game and it's fine. I think for me, it's better in a smaller game than some of the larger worlds.

So my vote is 1 and/or 2.

I also like options 1 and 2. Mostly 2, as it's hard to imagine a good replacement.

I dropped a line to someone I know who is interested. Lord oKOyA is a solid guy and consistent with PBP. What do you think?

I am going to reply to his post this morning. I hope it works out well for everyone

Lord oKOyA here with my mostly finished character for your vetting.

4th level HP roll: 1d6 ⇒ 1
reroll: 1d6 ⇒ 6

Nice! :)

I'll work at adding his spellbook to the profile, but please let me know if you have any questions or concerns or if I have made any errors.

I look forward to gaming with you all!

Cheers

PS Keryth is not a drow, regardless of what his avatar and his darkvision might suggest. :)

I think your Dr...um Elven Wizard looks great. I hope the rest of team gives you a warm welcome

When everyone is ready, The Dungeon Minion will call a time out, to allow another substitution, and then

Monkey Attackapalooza

Also, I'm not sure but I think another player may be interested in joining, been asking some good questions, so we'll see how that goes.

Welcome to the madness. Basic rule is our characters understand that they are in a dungeon and weirder than normal crap happens. You can sorta acknowledge the fourth wall, but don't blatantly cross it? That sound right? I still think we are pretty close to OOTS, but Terquem, I think, disagrees.

Thanks Teirist!

Hehehehe! Bring on the monkeys!!

none of my games got updated this weekend, I'm shooting for tomorrow, after I digest all the birthday cake I've consumed...

How silly of me to have overlooked the recruitment thread, Happy Belated Terquem! I hope you remembered to chase that birthday ale with some delicious nachos :)

I hear there's some craziness going on 'round here. Figure I'd come join the party.

Now there's a picture my wayfinder didn't have cached. Welcome to the hurt locker.

Happy Birthday! Welcome! Pass the nachos!

Can I please (indirectly) kill (or hamper, frustrate or otherwise incapitate) some freaking monkeys now?!

:D

"Mmm...nachos. Hey, I know this cool trick. Watch this." Billy pulls out his bow and checks the string. "Ok, now toss two up into the air. And make sure to toss them higher than your head!"

*thump* *thump* "Haha got the--oh."
And so we had to replace our wizard.

"Nah, I think he's ok. Now hold still..."

*yank*

Billy applies some of his personal brand of healing by licking his palm and wiping off the blood.

"There. Good as new...ooh, that blood isn't stopping. Hey! Do we have a cleric around?"

The new heroes are making an appearance now, I have not updated the map, yet, but you can begin introducing yourselves as soon as the Dungeon Minion is finished

Ok, until light comes on, I am seeing some concealment penalties coming. Roll 1d100, 1-50 miss? (50% miss chance for the total concealment in the dark, not sure if there are other penalties to go with it). Good thing I saw that monkey 35' ahead of our resident nacho man...er...dwarf.

Keryth doesn't have light memorized. Ballar will have to do the honors.

Methinks Ber...something or another has been lax in his training of his understudy :P

Keryth doesn't need light and assumes professional adventurers worth their salt wouldn't be totally reliant on others to see in a dungeon. :P

Well then I guess the wizard shouldn't be totally reliant on others for melee combat in a dungeon. ;)

Red Monkey Token Number of Monkeys: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
Org Monkey Token Number of Monkeys: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4
Yel Monkey Token Number of Monkeys: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
Grn Monkey Token Number of Monkeys: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
Blu Monkey Token Number of Monkeys: 1d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2

Each token of Monkiness represents several (I hope) baboons, who are AC 13 and have 5 hp. When a token is in melee with a character it will get a number of bite attacks equal to the number of monkeys in the token, and one attack will get a special “monkeiness” attack bonus of +2 to hit.

When a Monkey token is attacked you roll against the target AC as normal, and if you do 5+ damage one monkey is killed, to kill a second monkey with one attack you need to do +7 damage (above the first 5) and to kill another the additional damage is increased by another +2 (so 9 more than 12 points, for a total of 21 points in one attack) otherwise no other monkeys in the token are hurt by your attack.

The girallon is, well, a girallon and is much, much worse than the monkey tokens

He won't be totally reliant. :)

Might be time to see what the elf can do, after all. As it turns out, taking the horde down one arrow at a time may not be a smart thing to try...

Royals

/drops mic and walks away.

KC! KC! KC!

Unbelievable run they are on!

I am out of the office all day in a training. I will not be able to post until after i get home tonight.

So...perhaps we can pick up Teirist and throw him at the monkey horde as an AOE attack? Just let us know if you think that's a bad idea, Mr. Butcher Elf.

hrm, i am a weapon of slice destruction..so...maybe.

I'm too lazy to look it up. What's a Dorn Dergar? Is that like a supersized nacho or something?

A dwarven chain flail.

Stupid wizard and their vast knowledge. Figures. The dust was pretty cool, but I was kinda hoping for a fireball.

I'll be posting a slew of monkey saves soon!

I'm sure the fact that this spiritual weapon, much like most of Ballar's equipment, is covered in nacho dust led to some confusion on your part. :)

Oh, we tend to have lulls and such. So you may make a post and then it takes a day or so for things to move forward. Good use of the pause button though. We'll have a flurry of posts and then nothing for a while. Went back and looked and both Berenwyr and I were brought in as level 2 (or 1..can't recall, in June of 2013. That might give you a bit of an idea of how this thing moves.

PS. Terquem is actually trying to kill us.

He's only semi-committed to it though, so that's why sometimes his posts take a while. I understand he has other adventuring parties elsewhere that are in much greater peril.
Mostly because they don't have me.

edit, posting before coffee, not recommended!

Clearly, if they had us in their parties, they would not be in any great peril. Sadly, we cannot be everywhere at once. By the way, while I appreciate the wall you're mimicking in front of me, it would be much easier if you all crouch a bit lower so I can better fire at the pesky monkeys. I find my position here at the front most uncomfortable.

Woah! Mother of saves. I'm not sure what just got posted there...ah, much better.

Did Girallon just take 20 on his save?

fixed

Yo thanks Jimbo. When I get better armor, either the metallic kind or the Fluffy kind, I'll be sure to come help you out. I'm a'gonna take a time out and go scrounge up a good gyro and some fries now while watching the monkeys tear you...I mean while you heroically deflect all the monkey attacks.
