Sorry for the lack of posts here as of late. The current in-game situation aside, I've been having trouble finding Armin's voice. Nothing that some more time and practice won't fix, I'm sure.
I don't see any reason to post seeing as how we have a now living statue with us...

I'm assuming you're making some kind of joke that has flown over my head. Regardless, if there is anything anyone needs from me or action cue I overlooked, call me out here or PM me. Otherwise, I will be moving events along inside the tavern soon.
Eh, not a joke really so much just saying an interaction with an npc who hasn't said anything in two weeks leaves me in a weird position. Do I walk away and interact with the others or stay and see what interesting things I can make Brokk ramble on about to deaf ears? Also, I find I read Armin as I do Shadow in American Gods, emotionless and shallow. More an observer than the main attraction. But he's not my character, so what do I know?
Are you referring to the scarred man who bought the drinks? He just spoke!
Not when I posted this morning....
Also, I find I read Armin as I do Shadow in American Gods, emotionless and shallow.
Ironic, considering his core concept. But fair is fair. I feel like my writing for him has been lousy. Haven't read American Gods, though.
More an observer than the main attraction.
If anything, our backdrop is the main attraction at the moment. And Armin has certainly been an observer to it.
But he's not my character, so what do I know?
Sorry if I'm boring you to tears?
Not when I posted this morning....
Lol, what are you talking about? Your post in the discussion thread? My two posts in the gameplay thread have been there for five hours plus, you goof. :P
"Whew!" the scarred man exclaims. "That will definitely light a fire under ones arse! Ha ha ha! I can feel the fightin' spirit in me. Perhaps you are right, Master Dwarf."
Edit: Oh you must mean you're super early post this morning. Sure I kind of understand, but since I was on vacation and then sick, it's my bad Imes turned into a statue. Sorry!
Haha it's all good. Mahorfeus: I like Shadow as a character, it wasn't an insult. I just see Armin as a similar character, it's not like he is from this area or anything it's unfortunate he meets Brokk first....I was just giving you my two cents. I think he makes perfect sense.
Sorry, my passive aggression radar must have been out of whack. I blame the internet - it has jaded me so! I think things will improve for everyone once the group is all together and the ball really gets rolling. It was a little disingenuous of me to have Armin take Brokk up on his offer only to just stare off into space half the time. :P

All y'all too emotional. Lets just be friends.
No emotions about it brother. You know when I get emotional. This is just failure to communicate properly. Let's not make things any more difficult than they already are, know what I'm saying? I'll have a post up later today. Work is brutal for me right now due to this weather in Texas is making us prepare for the worst.
Since it seems there is still some RP going on, and one or two have some pending posts, I will be holding off on advancing time for the moment. But as I am anticipating posting to start lagging, I will be pushing forward once it seems clear no one else has anything else to say.

I'm waiting from a reply from Cerwek before I make my move elsewhere pinvendor, so, ya know, whatever
To a question already answered no less. /eyeroll
I believe he is asking for a companion in his room....

I mentioned that my guy had forgot. I'm ROLEPLAYING.
Just because I COULDA LOOKED FOR IT, doesn't mean LLEWYN would REMEMBER Cerwek talking to SOMEONE ELSE.
YEESH.
I think I missed something.
Meows, my original "waiting for reply" was in reference to the price for a room.
Stavo came in later thinking it was in reference to my post after that where I asked for Cerwek to show me to my room, thinking I was waiting for a response on that.
My last message was addressing why I asked for a price in the first place.

You guys are so cute.
And I was merely instigating more creepy roleplaying shenanigans.
Okay guys, I'm a little confused. I announced I was going to go ahead and probably move forward unless you guys had some more roleplaying to do.
Which you did. Sort of. About four of you all posted stuff that requires the others to actually respond to you directly. But no one is posting...
So now I am unsure of what I should be doing. I don't want to just gloss over the RP posts you have all made and advance time, but I feel like I should since no one is stepping up and finishing the roleplay.
If for any reason, you guys are waiting for me on something, please call it out here. If no one has responded to the other people's roleplay by end of my day tomorrow, Tuesday, I will advance the time line and do a gloss over of your conversations.
This may mean some of you do not get what you want out of this scene. So please, let's play some Pathfinder!
I'm happy to move on.
This section seems to have lost its steam very much. By all means advance away!
Good to move on whenever, Glen will just chat for a while, but he doesn't have anything important to say.
Hey Guys, sorry for my absence. I too, am ready to move on and have posted. Looking forward to more game time! ;-)
Spell Fatigue penalties table is up. Please, everyone head over to the campaign tab and take a look. Let me know if it looks fair, and if you understand it and how it works.
Feedback is desired! :D
Some great questions from Meowselsworth regarding the Fatigue Penalty Table. I'm placing them here from the chat so everyone can see the answers:
Spirit of Pinvendor: Of course This only applies to spell casters at the moment. I need to come up with the fatigue acquirement for daily use abilities. That way other classes can abuse use the table, too!
Meowselsworth: So when do the saves come into play? Immediately after spell use?
Spirit of Pinvendor: Yes. If a character has triggered spell fatigue they roll upon completing that action. Not before.
Meowselsworth: So if my hypothetical wizard got to 25 spell fatigue, I would have the ability score penalties and everything from fatigued, but I only roll the save once right after the action that gave me those fatigue points?
Spirit of Pinvendor: The effects of level 6 (25 Fatigue Points) would apply 'Fatigued' replacing any previous ability modifiers, and then the save would be rolled. And this would occur after the hypo-wizard cast the spell that generates the Fatigue. This is to show the spell was cast and thus drained the physical body of the wizard. Another save would not be required until the next time FP is acquired.
Dang! I toyed with just letting you have it before asking for the roll. Ah, well.
So both Brokk and Llewyn may have some delays in posting for a bit it seems. The next scene is most likely going to involve combat and skill checks and stuff. So to stall just for a bit, I'd like to offer you guys a roleplay challenge.
Give me a dream spoiler post. The dream should be about something in the future that is related to your past. An example would be like Corinne dreaming about finding this nebulous thing in the wilderness she thinks is out there but then someone she knew growing up is there as an undead abomination, and she awakens as the thing tears out Arielle's throat because Corinne wasn't able to bring herself to stop her former friend.
Base reward will be 5 RCs, but I will grant extra for anyone who feels super ambitious and writes up stuff that reveals more about their character's backstory, motivations, and demons. The dream doesn't have to be true or prophetic just related to your character's past in some way but be set "in the future".
I am ready to move forward once we know Llewyn an Brokk will be ready to move forward since I'd hate for the first major combat to require me to bot two players through most it.
You're welcome to collaborate, of course. So feel free to discuss stuff here and in PMs. You can also make more than one post if you desire.
Ultimately though, the dream should end because your character awakens; I forgot to mention that in the above post. Essentially once everyone is awake, the encounter scene will start.
And, yes. There is a supernatural/magical/mystical reason for everyone's dreams.
I'm thinking I shouldn't really have too much of delay, there is nothing else to do here in Lubbock haha. I start work tomorrow so we'll see how it goes.
Eh, I'm just dealing with my own personal alcoholism after my parents went back home....also go D-Backs!

The game will be moving forward shortly, most likely this weekend. Feel free to dream away until then.
Incidentally for anyone who is waking up, it will still be dark outside. Time wise it will be the far side of midnight leaning more towards 1:00 am.
Another piece of amazing news: Treppa has indicated she is able to participate! If she chooses to join us, we will still be moving ahead as her character will simply be a patron in the Dragon's Rest that will be getting involved along with the rest of you.
I'm hoping to have my music/sound effect hosting site ready soon, so I will be able to add that piece in by the time it gets exciting!
I had a busy weekend so haven't gotten my s##t together for this game yet. Won't be long, promise.
You're forgiven. Neither Brokk nor Llewyn have even posted Perception rolls, so it's alright for now.
The Roll20 map has been updated. There is now an upper floor off to the right of the tavern floor. Please adjust your token to indicate which rooms you are in and where you are in the hallway/room, so I can add my goons. :D
Also the bottom floor has been cleared of irrelevant NPCs and accurately reflects the changes and movements of everyone.
Sorry if I screwed anything up, roll20 is about as mobile friendly as the 1980 edition of the Encyclopedia Brittanica....
You moved off the table! Looks all good here.
It has occurred to me I had not addressed extra RC for dreams. Everyone who posted one may of course add 5 RCs to their current total as promised. I will generously add 1 RC for everyone taking up the gauntlet to interweave some revealing information in their dreams.
And Glen will get 1 more because I really liked his contribution.
As to the game, I apologize for being silent yesterday, inspiration just wasn't there, but I am feeling confident about today, so I hope you are all ready!
Incidentally, I do not assign RCs to Arielle as she is my little GMPC, but if any of you ever feel she should be granted any, go ahead and post it somewhere.
Alright this day slipped away from me, and I forgot that pinprincess and i have a pretty busy evening. I still plan to get some stuff posted, but it may not be until late. Sorry about the delay.
Hey guys, I'm back from a two week business trip. I should be getting a dream sequenced posted sometime this week as well as joining in on the action!
Real sorry bout the delay.
Life is a fickle sandwich sometimes.
Glad to hear it, chum! And just because you deserve it, everyone should know, Saturday was ODV's 63rd birthday!
...
Okay, okay...so I'll be honest. Only part of that sentence is true.
So it was Sunday then ;)
But hope it was more trip than business.
Sorry about the delay. Been a little hectic around here. Wife pulled a muscle in her back, and plus some other news came to us which has been a little troubling. I will do my best to get something up a bit later.
I see I was not added into the rounds order. Is that because I am upstairs? Do I need to roll initiative to see where I fall into?
