I like it. I'm going to adopt that for my games too.
Will do!
Duly noted!
Sorry DM, I should know this, but what are we doing re: hp?
Average rounded up at each level. So d6 grants 4, d8:5, d10:6, d12:7.
Quick note: I strongly encourage RPing what your character is learning via level up. How are you learning to cast new spells or cast spells at all? How are you learning new fighting techniques? No need to be exhaustive. Just a little something.
Apart from 7 hp, all I'm getting is Action Surge. I'll be sure to describe it at least the first time I use it.
Edit: I was thinking about taking a level in paladin now, which would have been more fun, but I decided not to as it doesn't really fit with the story just yet. I almost certainly will next level though, so I'll make an effort to build to that in game.
Excellent.
also, some people haven't updated their health, galenus and Eddrikk should be at full health due to tiberius's healing before the long rest.

What are you talking about? My health is updated. I totally didn't just update it right now with your post as a reminder. <.< >.>
Irdril is updated to level 2. She picked up some Warlock stuff and that's about it.
Ooh interesting. I didn't anticipate this multiclass option for Irdril. Curious to see the plan.
It was always the plan to pick up 2 levels of warlock. It actually gives her a decent offensive option with eldritch blast and agonizing blast at 2nd level warlock. Extra heals every short rest is good too since we have no dedicated healer.
Ah nice. That'll be cool to see in play.
Sounds good Irdril.
Point for discussion: Long-term, I'm planning to make deviations from the script in certain mechanical ways, e.g. provide you guys with a magic items you're not "supposed" to get and adjust upwards the difficulty of some fights to compensate. If you would prefer I stick to the power progression of the written adventure, let me know now and point out your reasons.
I don't know the written adventure and have deliberately not looked up any specific details to boot. I'm fine with any changes you're making to make things more fun.
I'm good with any changes. :)
You won't see me complaining about loot, but I would caution not to over do it. You increase PC power to much and you end up having to make encounters deadly just to challenge them.
I'm easy either way, although Irdril makes a good point.
Would you allow me to take Great Weapon Fighting for my fighting style even though it isnt normally a ranger fighting style, that way the 3 of us can stay a bit more distinct, if not I will just take Two weapon fighting and stay with my original plan.
I'm fine with that.
Sounds good to me!
Hmmm... slow-moving today. Everyone ok? No problem. Just let me know if there's something getting us hung up. I thought that the multiple splits in initiative were bogging us down but the hook horrors left, clearing up that issue, and we got much slower. XD
I've been having us slog through every day of this first journey from one location to another in the Underdark. In the future, I plan to skip many of the travel days. But they're particularly interesting right now when drow pursuit, food, sleep, minor useful objects, etc. are so important.
I'm here. Already posted my action so I'm just waiting on the next turn. :)
Yep sorry I was waiting, just posted up my attack, if the remaining gnolls are down before my turn I'll obviously move or do something else.
Yesterday was my first full day off with my wife in quite sometime so I popoed on ince in the AM and that was it, looks like I had better luck having the DM roll for me anyways.
A good call!

Yes! I just got married in December and everyone's happier when the wife comes first! XD
Indeed!
Sry folks been doing weeding stuff all weekend as well. My best friend got married so.
Ah weddings. My sister's getting married in a few weeks.
I have to attend one in a few weeks, and then another on the other side of the US in September.
I usually play at a couple of weddings a month :)
I think there was an official ruling somewhere along the line that you couldn't stop in an ally's square, attack, and then continue moving, but I'm happy to play it this way.
sorry all, really busy weekend and thursday.
Oh gee, just saw those gnolls circling around behind Eddrikk and Galinndan. Look out lads!
Engaging!
I'm really amused by the fact that you guys keep trying to ascertain the status of gnolls you're killing right then and there.
Also, Hewy, worried about the gnolls using this hit and run tactic on the party, found a very helpful clarification. So in the future, you can't end part of your movement in an ally's space. So that means that, from now on, neither the PCs nor the enemies can move into an ally's square, pause their movement, attack, then move back out (normally provoking AoOs).
Is it dead yet? Whack! Is it dead yet? Whack! Is it dead yet?
Haha haha. Yep!
I wouln't exactly call JC's tweets any of those words but I think that might be personal bias.
I'll just have to abuse my climb speed now I guess, and go around my allies. :)
Haha. Go for it! Given that we're not attacking from an ally's square anymore, how do you want to modify your action this round? Climb time?
Sure
Waiting for some samples to finish so I can start the next batch so I decided to do some book-keeping. Since you guys have essentially finished this discrete fight, I'm going ahead an awarding the xp. 179 each (I round up for your XP).
Getting to level 3 is always fun. Not too far away!
Archetypes aplenty soon!
sorry, I actually didn't notice you said Tiberius fell, one of the attacks was a 12, which misses Tibs at the moment so my brain just went "ah, still good enough" lol.
and sorry for the low posting amount, have a busy work weekend and and week due to the fourth. Seems I missed a fun fight :/
but I do want to ask, if that roll (the 12) was used as a hit, could it not be :P
Hey Tiberius - I think your 21 HP is wrong. You have a 16 con, so it should be 22 (10+3+6+3 = 22).
Speaking of which, how'd you get 16 con? Dragonborn don't get a con bonus, do they? I thought dragonborn got a boost to Str and Cha. And using point buy the max should be 15. So HP should actually by 20.
How'd you even get three stats at 16? Point buy seems off, too. Even if con was at 14 you're still at 29 out of 27 points. Maybe we got a couple of extra +2s somewhere and I missed it! Please let me know; I'd love to up my Wis and int. :)
likely just my inexperience in 5e and a slip on on translating it to paizo from the mythweavers. It was supposed to be a 14 (and I didn't realize stats started at 08 in 5e) so Int should be 10.
That caught me the first time I played 5e, too!
