Mummy's Mask: The Sand Scarabs-Gameplay Thread

Game Master R0B0GEISHA

Last week was a shooting sports event for the local BSA council.

This week is a district camp-o-ree and I'm off to camp with the troop. See everybody on Sunday!

I'm going to wait to give the others a chance to catch up. We've seemed to have gotten a little too far ahead of the game

Can't access the maps from work, will update as soon as I am home in 6 hours.

After a protracted battle with cancer, a close relative of mine has passed. I will be sitting shiva for her and will not have much time to be online for the next week. If you need to bot me, please do.

My condolences for your loss. May her memory be a blessing.

@ Hibbins: I'm sorry to hear that. Take all the time you need.

@ GM: How do you want us to handle hp for our level up?

I'm sorry for your loss.

Roll for hit points, if you roll less than the average (rounded down on even levels, rounded up on odd) then take the average.
Example: Caius rolls a d10 for hit points (average 5.5). At second level he rolls a 4. Since that is less than the average (rounded down) he gets 5 hit points. Now at third level say he rolls a 5, that is less than average (rounded up this time) so he gets 6 hit points. Then at fourth level he rolls a 6, that is greater than the average (rounded down, again) so he's stuck with his roll.
You can never get less than average but can always get more.
Questions?

HP: 1d10 ⇒ 8

Dice roll wins!

Any thoughts about what language I should learn? Already know:

Common (Taldane), Kelish, Ossirian, Ancient Ossirian

HP: 1d8 ⇒ 7

Hit points: 1d8 ⇒ 7

Being "The Kind and Benevolent GM"® that I am, I usually allow characters to take one free respec of their characters between first and second level.
If there's something you took because you thought it would be cool and are now regretting it, or if you just want to change something out, now's the time to do it.

HP: 1d10 ⇒ 6

Draconic is a good language i suppose.

Woot, hp rolling

HP: 1d8 ⇒ 4

I am going to be very hit or miss this week - I am traveling for work, and my posting will depend on a lot of things outside my control. Bot if needed. Thanks!

The loot list has been updated. If there's anything anyone wants before it's sold, speak now.

I'm good with the list.

I am back, thank you all for the understanding. I will get caught up as quickly as possible.

Time for another BSA Campout at the facility with no cell signals. I head to work in the morning and then go meet the troop and head to camp. I'll be back on Sunday.

More scouting. Helping run a training course that will keep me occupied through late Sunday. I am in cell range and might get a few minutes like this every now and again.

You coming back anytime soon, GM Wulfson?

Another Scout camping trip. This time with the troop, like is supposed to be normal. Going back to the site with no cell coverage.

My allergies are hitting me hard enough I want to just crawl into a ball and do nothing. All the boys can't get there unless I drive.

Hey, guys. GM Wulfson put this game up as looking for a new GM.

Here's the post.

I'm not sure what's going on or if he's talked to any of you at all, but if you need a new GM, I'm interested.

I wasn't aware of that. Thanks, Robo. It's a 'Yes, please,' from me.

How many active players do we still have?

I am not sure, honestly. Meriui for sure, since he just posted yesterday.

Everyone still here?

Well, pooh!

I'm happier that he advertised for his own replacement than I would be about him simply walking away, but having the GM swap out unexpectedly is a bigger impact than having a player or two swap out suddenly.

A weekend and only two players. That doesn't bode well.

And those are the new players, recently replacing others which had dropped.

Time for another replacement recruitment? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'm still here if we can get this going. Just not one for idle chat while waiting weeks for the story to move.

I'm still good to keep going, was not available this weekend for checking. Glad you're willing to take it on!

I'm also still here. I'm also fine with you taking over if you want.

I'm kinda fond of this group we have going. :)

Hey everybody! Now that I know I've got some players, give me a day or two to read the game thread and cook something up. Looking forward to playing with you all!

Hurray!

Thanks.

Heh, just went through the recruitment thread. I made a character for the re-recruitment.

Well, we did have a GM-PC that we have now definitely lost, your applied character could get in to fill the void?

Right! He was supposed to be our trap finder.

Rashim, you have good Disable Device, but do you have trap finding? Or do we need to recruit for someone who does have it.

I can disable magical traps, because of the trap finder trait, but I don't have trap sense.

Ahem... cough cough... trapfinding archetype...

This is the PC that I submitted. Not certain if you guys need another divine caster.

Or if we even need a 6th character. :)

Filling rogue was the only niche I was worried about. So relieved that Hibbins and Rashim both have it covered!

Just got control of the campaign. I'll be swapping stuff out today, like the loot list and Roll20 campaign.

The following is being removed from the loot list and is assumed to be in character equipment going forward:

Any adventuring gear that isn't claimed, I'll assume is being sold.

Yup, I've got mine.

Ditto

Anybody want to claim something from the unclaimed loot?

I don't want any of it.

I almost forgot to post this, and only have five minutes till shabbat. I will be gone till Sunday night due to Pesach, but as needed.

Also, hi bins is happy to have money.

Same here. Going to the girlfriends family for Passover. Have a good holiday.
