Ray! It is a small world. Unfortunately, I'm still in chest-burster mode... And in 48 hours I'll be running from the White Mountains to Hampton Beach. Blarg. I know, I don't think we've actually played together.

Realistically speaking, it'll be Sunday before we get the ball rolling. I need to recover from the race before I'm any good to anyone.

Re-rolls (and rolls in general): I default to trusting gamers. If you want to use your reroll, I believe that you have one. In Ray's case I've seen it in person. Feel free to simply post the reroll.

The only other things that come to mind for me that people may not know is that in Play by post I, like many others, essentially break the round down to "before bad guys" and after bad guys. I'm completely reasonable when it comes to trying to resolve actions logically.

Good luck! Take care of yourself, and don't push too hard. I did the 100 on 100 relay in Vermont in 2013. People think ConCrud is bad... an entire weekend of van funk from 6-to-7 runners is, um, unique. Nothing mingles quite like sweat, Bengay, and gastric distress. LOL! :D

Vermont? How many people here are New Englanders? Yeah, last year I was the only male runner in my van. I was spared the worst of it. I had it easy. I also have a lake house along the route where we got hot showers and warm beds (for 2 hours.)

Whaaat! That's cheating! ;-P

Ya know, as I was coordinating this shindig, I kind of wondered if the two of you might know each other. Huh.

is Texas near Vermont? :D

Yeah. We've worked a few conventions together. TotalCon, OGC a couple of times. I don't remember if we did PAX East together. Before New Hampshire and Vermont became their own lodge, they were loosely under the auspices of the Boston Lodge where I am. Now we have 3 lodges in the region: (1) NH/VT, (2) MA (North Shore) and Maine, (3) MA (Boston, a.k.a. the rest of the state not covered by North Shore) and Rhode Island.

LOL!

Sadly, I've never made it to PAX. I'll be at Carnage on the Mountain this fall though.

Faction: Silver Crusade
Day Job: Perform: Oratory: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10
Anything I REALLY need to know: I can normally get at least one post per day, but that mostly depends on my work day. I'm a police officer, so it all depends on which shift I'm working that day and how busy we are with calls. I try to always get in at least one post, even if its just short and sweet.

Hey guys, checking in! I just need to level Garrett to 3rd and then I'll be ready to go! I am not a New Englander... I live in Northwest Indiana, up near Chicago.

Garrett, I didn't know you're a police officer. God bless you, man.

Yes, thank you for your service. My entire circle of friends are either software engineers, teachers, or first responders. One of my closest friends is a county officer in Maryland. PbP is the only way I ever get to play with him these days.

Garrett, I didn't know you're a police officer. God bless you, man.

Ditto, sir!

My neice's husband is a cop, too. Canine. Worry about him all the time...

Yeah, I'm Deputy Sheriff as well (I usually just Police officer, because a surprising number of folks don't realize that I do the exact same job with a different title lol).

Also, thanks everyone for the support and appreciative comments! I am often leery of telling some folks my profession due to some anti-police reactions I have received on the forums here, but I've since learned it's mostly a minority who are overly vocal.

Yah, it's a tough time to be in your profession, but I respect the hell out of what you guys and gals do every day. I know far more people who are very supportive of police than those who aren't.

Name: Flyndal Danwrick (Played by Jimmy Lomax)

Faction: The Exchange
Day Job | Profession(Merchant): 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (12) + 9 = 21 *
Important Stuff: Flyn’s a halfling; just a note, for situations where size comes into play.

Name: Cëanel "Kay" Firdhanor (Eric S)
PFS #: 135388-7
No day job.
Faction: Liberty's Edge.

Hey Garrett, sorry to hear you got some flack for your profession. Being a police officer or member of the sheriff's dept is a worthy and difficult job. My daughter is considering a cadet program, although she's thinking about the FBI, ultimately. Plenty of time to decide.

I gotta level up Kay, and then he'll be ready to roll.

PFS Number: 156771-1
Player Name: Christopher Huisjen
Character Name: Kohinoor an-Gul
Faction: Silver Crusade
Day Job Roll: N/A

I'll just have to finish leveling Kohi up and she'll be ready. I think I'll buy a handful of scrolls and maybe a +1 longspear.

Engleaktig, have you handed out Chronicles yet? I'd like to buy land as well, same one as Desh did!

EDIT: All up and ready to go!

Nope. Not yet. I posted in the other thread how much GP you get, though. (3,711 GP) Which plot of land would you like to buy?

He mentioned getting the same as Desh, who is getting D2.

Hey guys, sorry on my delay! Again, thank to everyone for their supportive comments!

Garrett will be purchasing B2 with his plot of land. Also, I will work on getting him leveled up tonight.

Just a heads up, I went ahead and updated Desh's profile page as best as I could. We still haven't officially gotten our chronicle sheets from Engleaktig, though I'm sure he'll get them to us as he's able.

i lifted the chronicle information from stuff Engleaktig gave us at the end of this last adventure and from a chronicle sheet Flyndal's player found online. Hope that's okay.

Your chronicles will be posted here sometime today.

Posted! Let me know if there are changes, adjustments, or corrections. :-)

Mine looks good. Narad/Engleaktig, HERE'S an updated version with all purchases and final details. Look good to you?

Works for me. :)

Hey guys, sorry I haven't had the chance to get Garrett leveled up yet. Friday I got jammed with a messy OWI arrest which took the rest of my night to wrap up the paperwork. Then I was on solo daddy patrol while the wife worked all weekend, so I did not have much time to sit down and look at things. I will try to get at it tonight during some down time at work, but we'll see.

No worries. Life is crazy busy for me too, and I somehow find myself in 12 PbPs and 2 F2F games. Honestly I'm spoiled with post frequency. One good post per day is plenty fine.

Thanks S... I'm slowly working on getting caught up with you rapid posters! Unfortunately the day has started off badly already... Been on duty less than three hours and already we've had three fights (one involved a handgun), a fatal crash, annnnd the normal standard police fun like thefts, civil complaints, etc.! Going to be a long day, I think lol.

Good luck out there!

Bummer, Garrett – (especially the fatality.) Kinda puts my ‘bad days’ at work in perspective. Stay safe out there.

Holy crap what a long night!

Okay, Garrett is leveled up now. I just need to finalize some purchases real quick and then it's off to mythic realm we go!

I decided to do some focusing on Illusion spells. Going to see what I can do with that and battlefield control. Perhaps throw around some walls here and there in an effort to keep things partitioned! Also, I think I'm going to bump up his armor and shield each by +1. That'll put my AC to 21 and into territory where I would not mind getting into melee to do some flank assistance and Aid Another! Hmmm... can one fight defensively while using Aid Another?

Glad your workday is over and you get to play!

Yes, you can aid another that way--with the penalties for fighting defensively. :)

Sweet! That is good to know. I decided to go ahead and bump up my armor and shield with +1 bonuses. Now I'm not as concerned about getting into combat with you guys to provide a little aid. I'm thinking about battlefield control with Illusions, some tripping/disarm with the whip, and buddy flanking!

Any suggestions on some good wands to pick up? I was thinking about grabbing a Silent Image wand, or I could pick up something else for us to use if you guys have any requests/suggestions?

Also, picking up a M/W Lute so I can take full advantage of all the Bardic Performances this time...

Kohinoor: Not the best at subtle.

I thought it was refreshingly awesome. :D

It'll be interesting to see how it's received.

We can only hope well. My new job has me working during the group's prime posting hours, so I'll just do my part when I can for the time being.

No problem, man. The game will move at the speed it moves. I'm more interested in everyone getting to play their part and have fun. :)

Agreed!

Sorry for the lack of activity recently. I put in 3-6 hours of overtime every single day last week either for training or after shift paperwork... And then had a wedding Friday night, then Brewfest yesterday. I'm back on track today, but my folks are in town visiting this week, so my posting will likely be minimal the upcoming week.

No apologies needed. At least some of the items on that list seem fun!

Guys, I'm so sorry--I was in the hospital and lost track of games. Kay is leveled up.

I hope all is well!

Agreed. You and all yours alright?

No worries at all, Kay! I just hope everything is alright.

Getting there. It was no fun for a while. I can probably go back to work tomorrow. :)

Hope you're feeling better.

I am. Still not sure what it was--it may have been West Nile Virus. Tests are forthcoming. I do not recommend whatever it was.

Ugh! Let’s hope not. Glad you’re feeling better, elf.
