You're doing great, Colwyn!
Also, since the shrine has generated a new magic item, how do we determine what it is?
Last time, I did it like this
You're doing great, Colwyn!
Thank you very much!
...
New Magic Item at Shrine
1) Potion, 2) Scroll, 3) Wondrous Item
= Wondrous Item
= Wrists Slot
= Sleeves of Many Garments
There are only two Wrist Slot items within Thornholme's purchase limit, so that made it a coin toss between the sleeves or Armbands of the Brawler.
It makes sense to me that you would have some say in what magic item is being produced.
Choose a slot for the item and then we will roll for what comes out.

For the Wondrous Item, I was thinking we could go with Slotless. That gives us the most possibilities. Should I roll, or should the GM roll for that?
You may roll Colwyn.
Sorry about last night, the board seems to like crashing on a Tuesday for me?
Random Slotless Wondrous Item at Shrine:
= Elixer of Tumbling (250gp)
Hmm, that could be useful!
Niadroub,
How can we add a new tab in the kingdom tracker to account for our new, second settlement? Do we just duplicate the Thornholme tab, then change the entered values and information?
I can't check it at work, but I believe that I laid out instructions in the Instructions tab (maybe not what I named it) on how to add a new tab. I hid the Instructions tab (along with a few others), but they should be easily un-hidden using one of the options from the menu that controls the tabs. It's accessed along the bottom of the sheet, to the left of the actual tabs. If you can't find it, Google something like "Google Sheets unhide tabs" and it should show you.

I followed the instructions and added a new tab for Levetown, but I cannot edit the Cities Overview tab because it is protected content in the spreadsheet.
GM_DBH: I really hope this wasn't overstepping my bounds, but I edited the Greenbelt map to number the hexes in the southern portion of the map to better track our movements. I also added tokens representing hexes that, if I recall correctly, we haven't explored yet.

Gah, I'm sorry. I think I've removed the protection from that range. Please confirm.
Should I just remove all of the protected content ranges? I'm thinking I should.
Also, it looks like all of the cells from the Instructions tab were cleared? Was this intentional?
I am able to edit the Cities Overview now. Thank you.

I didn't clear the Instructions tab, at least not that I'm aware of.
I'm looking at the information right now. They're still there.
Huh, that's weird. I see it again, too.
@Colwyn. Wrong map sorry, we're using the Greenbelt RRR map for book two.
New map for each book.

D'oh! Sorry.
No update tonight. Guests over and insisting on me being social.
Damn them! :D
Sorry guys, I'm confused. Do all of us know about the plant/mushroom creature, or only Isaac? Do we only know it's there somewhere, or do we actually see it?
I know nothing about it... Do I?
Isaac is being presumptuous, it might not even be a monster...
Sorry no time tonight. Tuesday again!
@Issac, did you tell anyone?
Yep, would have pointed it out. He could be wrong about it being a monster(I presume it still looks mostly like a heap of mushrooms) but he is convinced it's a creature of some sort.
And again sorry.
@Everyone. Once pointed out it's a DC24 knowledge Nature to work out what it is.
We already did a bunch of tests, Reknar got a 25.
Colwyn has no idea what it is, but that doesn't matter to him.
Based on past experience, when he sees an anomaly like this, his instinct is to go around or preemptively bury an arrow in it.
Of course, he is willing to wait for clarification from his brain trust.
Does that abysmal volley of arrows count as my turn for this round, or was that more of a surprise round?
Quick FYI: Things are crazy in my life right now. My wife is in public health, so she's working pretty much 24/7 due to COVID 19 stuff and a city-wide water supply issue here in Houston, so I'm pretty much single dad for a few weeks. I'll probably need to drop off for a day or two (like I did this weekend), here and there. I intend to catch up, but feel free to bot me if needed.
Hope things improve for you and your wide Niadroub.
Colwyn that was a surprise round.
Away from home all evening, so no update tonight I'm afraid.
Sorry, I've picked up a nasty bug and am too bedridden to update tonight.
Speed recovery DBH!
Feel better, DBH.
Hope you feel better soon DBH.

Update: They closed the schools today through March 30th due to the community spread of the coronavirus. Next week is our Spring Break, so I've already taken the week off to watch the kids, but the week after that is still up in the air. Wife is still working crazy hours, children are still small and needy, but I should have some help from my retired mom occasionally. My youngest has really started acting out at school (we're assuming because of the drop in personal attention and an overall community anxiety that seems to be everywhere), so some time away from school may help her by giving her less she needs to rebel against and give her teacher a break. Anyway, I'll still be inconsistent from time to time.
Sorry that Niadroub. I hope things do get better.
Sounds like a lot of stuff happening a the same time Niadroub - on my end similar measures have been taken due to coronavirus spread. School closed and the kids are home. Me and my wife working from home also.
All the best, and try to take some comfort in knowing this period will eventually pass.
Thanks guys.
New Zealand is going into lockdown tomorrow, so I'll be very busy today and tomorrow. Updates resume on Thursday hopefully.
No worries DBH - all the best, and stay safe. I have been on lockdown going for 3 weeks now.

Still very hectic at the moment. So we'll get moving Monday.
Thankfully everyone is being calm and sensible where I live. Keeping gaps when shopping, and waiting patiently until they are allowed in the store.
Good to hear things are proceeding as well as can be expected DBH.
Too busy to update tonight.

No update tonight. Life has me too busy.
Things are calming down here, but no update tonight. I hope everyone is keeping safe.
My family and I are safe, but we're all slowly going crazy.
Okay, that's an exaggeration, but I really want to be able to send the kids somewhere during the day. Hopefully this will die down enough for me to send them to summer camp at some point.
My wife (the epidemiologist) feels pretty confident that they'll be going back to school in the fall.

I seem to recall seeing a meme that showed a cloth and said something like, "Day four of homeschooling. For our science experiment today we are testing if chloroform really has a smell."
I'm doing fine, still working as I am in an essential business, but not getting why they still have us coming into the building at all when nearly everyone can now work from home (a handful of us simply can't, me included, due to technical requirements). there are currently, I believe, no more than ten of us in the building out of roughly thirty who are working and of those ten I think I'm the only one unable to work from home.
My family and I are doing well, too.
Good to hear you guys are all safe and well.
All good so far from my end also, fortunately. My kids are almost no hassle, EXCEPT for the fact I need to constantly be chasing them for the home schooling...
