LOL. You know, I was worried about what would happen since I was pulling five people into what's effectively a four player game, but between the rolls and the silliness that's been happening, I think it worked out quite nicely! :D
Currently I'm out of town helping family, I'll be able to post tomorrow.
I'll be out again tomorrow, but hopefully I won't be wiped out again. That said, with the delays I've been seeing online ( in this game and several others), how would you like to handle delays of twenty-fours or more? Should we set up a botting buddy system? Should absent characters be free game after a certain period of time for everyone to be allowed to bit? Would it be better to have everyone note their "tactics" in their profiles? I've definitely considered just taking on characters to bot them during the absence, but pepper have been really good about keeping me posted... Which leaves me a bit confused about what I should do. I've seen some other GMs get stick on what to do, too.
What do you all think? C:
I can post Chombos tactics in his profile. Hmm, I would for either a buddy or everyone to bot Chombo. :)
I think using posted tactics is a fine idea as long as everyone agrees.
Agreed.
In that case, since we've got a majority, please go ahead and update your profiles with a "tactics" spoiler or section! It'll give me something to reference for future combats. c:
Thanks for your input guys! ^o^
Yay for botting spoilers! It looks like your first game is going swimmingly, Hiyami! Good job!
Hmm
Thanks, GM Hmm! c: Surprise praise is the best praise! \o/
Woops, guys, I totally forgot to actually tell you how much exp you were gaining as you were passing through and doing things. /facepalm
The following is per character and not the party as a whole. c: I'm also cheating a bit and calculating for a four-person party since that's what this module was actually for. I got super lucky and ended up with a group that all posts and keeps up! (You guys are awesome!)
----
Wild Dogs: 101 exp
Spider: 100 exp
Rubble: 50 exp
Troglodytes: 100 exp
Total so far: 351 exp

I don't anticipate any leveling before the end of this module, but I figured I out to ask in case anyone wanted to then take their character into another game, etc. Should I keep a running tally here or would it be better for me to just dump it all on you guys at the end?
I'm ok with a dump at the end.
Regarding raging song:
For Shae and Chombo - just curious but why did you pass on the song in the last round of combat?
Whichever is easiest for you!
My animal handling requires Charisma. Not that my rolls let me use it anyways.
XP wise I'm ok with whatever is easiest as well.
I prefer getting xp at the end of an adventure and or simply going by a 'and now you level up' system. I always use the latter when DMing for my friends :)

I am trying to remember but I think there was an AC drop and Chombo's AC is not high enough for him to take a hit on it. Sorry.
No problem. I just want to know when I should time using that ability.
I'll be on vacation for the next week or so but think I should be good with posting...most will be from mobile though so they may be brief.
I will be back Wednesday or Thursday next week.
I'm aware that it's the Fourth of July weekend! \o/
I figured we could pull through if it was just one person going on an extended vacation, but since it looks like there's two...
Is anyone else going on vacation or just away for the holiday?
The 4th isn't big around these parts.:)
Not me, but it's fine if we take it easy for a couple of days :)
I'll be delayed today, since I'm out with family, but I'll advance the round when I get home later tonight. C:
Annnnd I don't think I'll be able to make it home tonight x_x
No problem, have fun!
Hey guys, here's a question! o: I know you guys took a short rest, but... Did you maybe want to consider that your night's rest? o: If I remember correctly a night's rest gives you a single hit point.
Health currently is as follows:
Urhan Quinn
Dakka Nobu
Shae Sasogne - 3 damage
Scarlett - 3 damage
Chombo - 2 damage
Aicard - 3 damage
It's probably not a bad idea...as long as you don't mind spending 8 hours trying to sleep in an abandoned temple
Actually Chombo is down 4. As I remember the dogs got a hit on him.
Chombo doesn't really need the rest but if anyone else needs it I am fine with it.
Sure we can go ahead and rest. Not that Dakka needs it. If I had thought about resting I probably would have cast a spell or something in the last couple fights.
Thank you, Chombo. c: Okay, then I'm going to treat that "break" we took as a full night's rest in the interest of brevity.
Refresh your spells and other bits and pieces, and assume that you've done any communing that's necessary. c:
Urhan Quinn
Dakka Nobu
Shae Sasogne - 2 damage
Scarlett - 2 damage
Chombo - 3 damage
Aicard - 2 damage
I am waiting for your actions and then I'll advance either later tonight (hopefully) or tomorrow. I know it's the weekend, so scheduling can get a bit chaotic (as my own crazy schedule has definitely proven). Which, thanks for your patience on that. c: It should be loads better now, though! ^o^
FYI I'll be on vacation for a week starting tomorrow. Posts may not be as regular as normal. Feel free to bot if necessary.
Thank you very much for the heads up. c:
Sorry for the delay - I really wanted to let Shae get in that finishing blow! - but we've successfully completed Master of the Fallen Fortress!
I, uh. I'm really happy and proud right now (is that weird?). Thank you guys so much for letting me use you as guinea pigs to figure out if I could handle this whole online pbp thing!
And advice or constructive criticism you may have is 100% welcome!
EXP Total: 1,135 experience
Awesome, Hiyami. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I don't really have any criticism or advice, as this was my first time, too. I think I need to work on my role-playing writing. I really tried to get into Chombo. He is just a happy go lucky half-orc who is a fierce fighter. Very fun.
Thank you. Please let me know if you run anything else. I would love to do this again.
Ahahaaaaa, I enjoyed the entirety of this delightful adventure. c:
I think I'll mostly be running PFS stuff in the future! I'll be running three for GD6, so the ending of this game was pretty well timed. c: That said, you'll always be welcome in one of my games! ^o^
Thank you for having me, Hiyami! And thank you for running a fun and (for pbp standards) short game! I .. will have to think on any and all criticism and or advice, but I think you ran it well.
