Brilliant (pun intended) - utility magic for the win!

Travelling for the next 24 hours.

I'm off tomorrow for a two week vacation in Singapore and Malaysia. I suspect the hotels will have WiFi but if they don't I won't be able let you know. Bot Dregan if required.

OGGM: that was a seriously atmospheric post. I take my hat off to you.

Thank you sir!!!

Seconded, a most excellent post indeed. Edric needs a halo or something... keep him really recognisable!

We are going to do something a little different due to the split nature of the group - I'm going to try and add to the horror genre effect. We will be posting in spoilers for both groups: I'll have a spoiler for Dregan/Vosil/Edric, and one for Talia/Naralesh. The idea being one group will not know how it's going for the other. Talia/Nara are not out of this, but the others shouldn't know if/when they are coming; and they should not know how the fight in the streets is going.

Sound good? Hope so, I've working on this for a while. It's really a small bit in the AP as written, but I couldn't pass up the chance to get some good old fashioned horror in! One of my favorite campaigns from years gone by is a GURPS Horror campaign I ran. As always, feedback is appreciated!

I'm going to add Gav to the Nara/Talia spoiler

Sorry, got wrapped up in work. Will get this going tomorrow. Just a small cliffhanger...

This is all looking very exciting - I approve heartily!

*heart pounding* This is terrifying storytelling. Horror atmosphere achieved!

The new map is posted under 'Battle Map'. As I firmly believe in shamelessly stealing from others who do it better, I'm using a new map system. You should all be able to to move your PC's icon (when it's there) on the map now. Also, I've gone away from Maptools - it was taking way too long to set up an encounter. This should work better for all of us.

I'd be very interested to hear how the spoiler-thing worked for you. I (obviously) got to read them all, so I have no idea if the effect was as I intended. Also, Edric's crit ended things sooner than I thought, but was very epic!

It was a suitably dramatic finish! I can just see Edric, wreathed in Desna's holy light as he pounds the werewolf into pulp before an audience of his loyal soldiers; I don't think our General will have any insubordination problems for a while! (Should probably heal that sergeant though)

As for the spoilers, it definitely worked in showing the consequences of splitting the party - looking Not At Really Anybody in particular ;-)

I'm really happy that crit came up... Vosil has described it better than I would but its a lovely moment for Edric - might have to name his earthbreaker now :D

The spoilers were interesting. I think the party split came out quite well actually - if Gav, Nara and Taalia were the ones facing off with Kundall it might not have gone so well. It's a great way of doing a party split though, so if it comes up again I say go for it.

Worked for me!

I stand by my decision to ensure the ruler of our nation got to the city unharmed. :P

I know - I'd have done exactly the same if it had been the other way round; but once I'd come up with the acronym, it was too tempting not to use it :)

Talia: I know you're having trouble with some campaign tabs not appearing on your "homepage" so I just wanted to let you know that we're doing some Kingdom-building on the other thread :)

Back, sorry about that. Catching up now.

Hope you had a great time! :)

Thanks for that, Vosil. Indeed, another of my games has vanished into the ether. I'll check in now...

Weird.

Anyway, I think we should spend the next month in Concord, just in case our Sergeant or Paladin don't manage the save.

Another round of kingdom building?

A month off for more kingdom building? Let me know so I can update the calendar.

Sounds good to me!

It shall be so :)

Still no word from our Scoundrel.

Drunk himself into a coma at the tavern? :)

Apologies - had to travel unexpectedly. Back tomorrow, will post something then.

Sorry guys, super busy. What do we want to do about Gav? Replace? Do nothing and keep going? At a minimum, you are going to need to fill his position in the kingdom. Your choice if that's with an NPC or we recruit. Or we keep Gav as an NPC?

I'd say keep Gav as an NPC.

I'm not sure where the elvish keep is but I'd like to head that direction.

Didn't I put the hex ID in the post? I thought I did...

I did, b7.

D'oh, sorry! I just favorited the post so I can find it easier.

Since it is b7, I suggest we go down the line from B7.

Hopefully Vosil and Naralesh are temporarily silent, haven't heard from either for a bit.

Hope so too!

Well, part of me is waiting for them - or one of them, at least - that's half our group! The other part isn't really sure what to do at this point...input is appreciated.

Getting tricky isn't it... Vosil is usually reliable, although I know Nara has a lot on with life in general. Give it until Monday then push on?

Yeah, I'd wait. We can hang out a bit to see if either makes an appearance and pick up in awhile.

Hi all

Unfortunately life here has turned pretty crappy and is sapping my time and energy - I need to take a break and refocus.

Sorry to do this, but I'm going to have to drop out.

I've really enjoyed my time on these boards and it's been a lot of fun. Best of luck to you all, and may the dice gods ever send you a Natural 20 when you most need it.

Apologies again.

Vosil's a great character, DR, one that is feels very 'alive' - hope to see him again some day. Best of luck to you.

Sorry to hear that. I hope life gets better soon. You will be missed drop by if you get time to come back.

As for where to from here I was waiting to see if anyone was going to attack the mad man but thinking it is unlikely.

-Posted with Wayfinder

Edric is the most likely one to, and he's not a 'smite first, ask questions later' kind of paladin - so no, not likely.

Shame to see you go Vosil - it's been great fun roleplaying with you. Here's to hoping you make it back to Golarion one day!

So, apparently my post about being away for a while got eaten. But I'm back now if you guys didn't kill me off while I was away and will still have me.

Ah Vosil, very sad to see you go, but RL always takes precedence. Good luck and come back any time.

Gav, glad to see you are still here! I did look for such a post, and didn't see one.

Excellent! Glad you're back!

So we have Gav back. No word from Naralesh, and Vosil out. They will be with us temporarily. We can discuss what to do after we deal with the old man.

Sounds good. Internet is down at work. I'll get a post up tomorrow when I'm not on my phone.

I can post, but I'm not sure if Gav is actually there or not. I didn't want to jump in if I was left in Concord.
