Last Rites (Inactive)

That link is awesome, but I'm curious how they made it look so nice... Also is everyone ok if I run Aluar's character or should he just vanish into thin air?

I'm gonna get selective channeling as my next feat Arasmes

It's all good, man. Don't sweat it :)

I've got no problem with you running Aluar, DM Awesome.

And you can make him go away when you think it's convenient, that's fine by me too.

I am definitely fine with you running Aluar/Jean. My suggestion is to run him for the full encounter at the vineyard.

If he hasn't been able to rejoin the game by the time we get back to town, I'd have him go off on his own 'mission'. That way, you could reintroduce him later if he can resume playing.

Our posting has gotten a little inactive, where is everybody?

I'm here! :P

I won't be able to post for much longer today, but I'll check back in tomorrow morning.

I guess everyone did post yesterday, it just seems like a large gap of activity for some odd reason to me. Crazy time warp.

Sometimes RL interferes with gaming (bad RL, bad!). :P

From earlier in the game, our options as stood were:

Vineyard (Where we are)
Westwood Abbey
Library in Capitol

There was also a mention of an excavation site where the amulet was found, in a tomb. Maybe we could find the location of that site, maybe we could learn the history of who that tomb belonged to.

We could always hit up the Abbey but I think we should learn about the amulet before we go poking around into how Alastair played a role.

Starting Monday I will able to post so much more frequently.

Yolk, are you suggesting the library?

@drawesome Yes, Yolk feels like he wants to delve into the history of the amulet and uncover any battles that may be tied to it, although he doesn't really state that anywhere in game.

I will try to find a way to RP his quirk in at the library

All this emotion is bothering Adriel. He wants to kill something.

We can go play whack-a-gnoll!

Hmm, a random encounter perhaps...hmm.

Arasmes could be talked into either option; but he's going to want to know everything he can about this guy from Adrien first (he might be dead when/if we come back)

Feel free to ask questions of him, and make checks if you want. :)

Sure - there's about 5 questions so far. Is Diplomacy appropriate? Sense Motive as backup?

Question: "What is the map?"
Diplomacy: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10 Sense Motive: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (5) + 1 = 6

Question: "What did this man look like"
Diplomacy: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 15 Sense Motive: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (10) + 1 = 11
looking for; is he a McDarrow? One of the people from the vision? Did he have a holy symbol? Was there anyone or anything still with him? Did he have any other undead with him? Does Angus recognise him?

Question: "Why did he take Mary?"
Diplomacy: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (12) + 8 = 20 Sense Motive: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 1 = 19
expecting "I don't know" actually.

Question: "Where did he go?, When did he leave?"
Diplomacy: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13 Sense Motive: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (18) + 1 = 19
Looking for; where was he heading, and was it recently enough we can still follow him?

Yay, end of the next day. Another 100 EXP everyone for making it through. Plus bonuses, Arasmes gets 25 for his use of diplomacy to entice answers out of Adrien. Aluar would've gotten more for venturing off after the other fellow, but he is no longer with us...

And don't worry, there will be many opportunities to get XP and please don't gang up on Arasmes.

XP = :D

Arasmes diplomatically gaining information important to the group = :D

So, I'm not seeing any bad here! :)

I'm still interested in heading to the capitol. Grey Novel is so vague, but perhaps a master librarian will be able to help us put the pieces together.

Damn, Arasmes, how am I gonna compete with that intro!?

Damn, Arasmes, how am I gonna compete with that intro!?

Just do your best! :P

As for my character, I was sneaky! Did you see what I did? (I figured that everyone would remember what my character told them just two days ago, in game that is!)

Damn, Arasmes, how am I gonna compete with that intro!?

You are too kind :)

You guys all do really good RP, I can only hope to get better as the game goes on.

You're doing fine! Don't worry about it! :D

Some days I'm more creative than others, but I don't wanna skimp on posting just because I hit the creative wall =)

We should send chatterbeak over to the cart.

Hey DM_Awesome. Do we know if the road we are traveling on is generally free of bandits or other types of baddies? Or am I wrong in assuming that roads are dangerous to travel alone?

The road is a main highway from Sandpoint to Magnimar. Thus it has the opportunity for bandits, but not overly so. You know that guards also regularly travel between the cities on this road.

Hey all, this weekend might be a bit crazy for me. So I might not hear from me until tomorrow night. Just a warning.

No problem. Tomorrow I will be playing the Kingmaker AP with my buddies anyway.

I can't guarantee I'll be able to post before Monday morning. Feel free to move Gryfford along if necessary.

And tada, One more day, one more easy 100 XP. :) Plus bonuses, Yolk gets 25 for his stellar research in the library. Yolk and Gryff get 25 each for interacting with the salesman, Arasmes gets 25 for using his wits to check out more info on Nikolai. And finally everyone gets 25 for sharing their stories. :)

Good luck everyone. You guys are doing great!

So, Gryfford likes half-orc hookers.
And he had a half-orc nanny.
Hmm... I think he's got some issues! :P

Sorry all, I may not be able to post til thursday, I'm moving and I have to load boxes and get stuff done. Just thought I'd let y'all know so you weren't worried.

Thanks for the heads up!

Take care during the move!

Thanks for the FYI, much appreciated!

Good luck with the moving. See you on thursday :-) !

Cheers
hope the move goes well

Ok

And I'm back :)

Welcome back hows the new place?

Well I'm just crashing on a couch for a month while I find a new place in Seattle.

Bummer! :(

That's no good man - good luck finding a new place!

@ dr awesome - I just remembered that you said you lived in Kansas. So, Kansas to Seattle--what a change!

I wish you good luck for your search for a nice place to settle in, DM Awesome :-).

It's no biggie. Yeah it's quite a switch :).

For that skill challenge I'd prefer each of you to make one or two at first. Then we can go from there.
