enough posts
to change
my name
So much for that, I still cannot change my avatar's name...

Uh, ok. When you made your alias...you did make an alias of your characters name, right? You then have the option to post as in the bottom left of each post. Post as your alias.
You would have been able to change the avatar name before posting 10 times with it. You sorta went the other way with it I think, if I understood correctly.
When I post as Emrys right now for example I get this message:
You have made nine posts as "Emrys the Wizard". You can change your avatar name until you have posted 10 messages to the message boards.Click here to change your avatar name.
If you do not wish to change your avatar name, you can ignore this message.

I think dig dug is D's actual avatar. I hope he made an alias as Chern. I think he's confused regarding the two.
So just to confirm, we are currently on a ferry heading to the Hollow?

never mind finally ran thru the discussion tred.
Kev - why are you already down a couple hp?
(No health/grace this time)
No, I'm fine with Chern, I'm trying to change the Avatar name of Dig Dug, to Brunt.
What's our motivation by the way? Now that we are off the ferry, I don't see any specific thing/place to do... we were hired on as extra swords... did we already get paid? And who/where is our patron?
Straight to the tavern then?
I probably shouldn't have hidden the spell I was casting?
Playing around a little too much perhaps?
Well, since you can't actually hide the casting of a spell without special abilities, probably.

Darkmoon Vale is said to foster many avenues of adventure for a man eager to make his name in the world. Falcon's Hollow is a good spot to resupply and make local connections.
You accompanied the caravan for mutual protection, not as paid employees. You are free men but have come to know each other somewhat on the trip and know that working together gets better results than working alone.
I'm not going to drive you, your characters should be molded for moving forward. Just like each post should drive things forwards.
What IS your motivation? Why would Chern come to such an out of the way spot? Why did any of you.
Time to bond the party together...methinks, since you are all at loose ends in a new place.
Besides, I'm sure a chance for adventure will present itself soon enough.

I just like playing around with the features we have here, to learn them.
Indeed. THat's what this discussion thread is for. experimentation. We're all new here. Growing pains are expected.

9 grace 11 health
not sure what everyone is doing but I am using bold for when my character is speaking out loud and Italics for his internal monologue.
That sounds good to me too.

So I guess we are not using grace then?
Yup, bold when speaking and italics for internal monologue. No health and grace this time though. Just straight hp.
lol, my character has no internal monologue. He thinks it, he says it.

That's gonna be just so much fun lol, misunderstandings abound!

When you say you are a traveling performer, what do you perform?
And you are at least an acquaintance of Balder Crimsonsong, the groups other performer. Probably you two were supposed to meet up in town and strike out together from there.
Anybody surprised that Kevin was the first one to have a conversation end with a fight? :p
No. Not one bit, lol. A little jealous though.
I like the flair Kev, this acrobat is pretty neat.
You can take the character out of Kev, but not Kev out of the character. lol.
The classic match up: Warrior vs. Rogue. Should be a dandy. I wish I had my info here or I'd run it right now.
What do you guys think of the format so far?
Not bad atm, the main issue I imagine is when I am back at work and will log on to find too much has happened while offline. But that may not be too bad unless my work has the site blocked, which it probably does.
I assume Brian and I are on our way to laurel by this point. Or where you expecting us to chime in again before things progressed?
No, next stop for you too is Laurel's shop.
I was just mentioning to Brian a little piece of my plan for this character. If we finish this little test drive and move on to something bigger I would like to continue the same character, assuming he lives.

Absolutely, the plan is the same characters for the whole arc. a mini-campaign.
Well you assumed that I was going to stick around for the fight. I was planning on high tailing it out of there as soon as he yelled Guards. next thing I know two round of combat had happen.
So I guess this is a good time to explain how combat is going to work here.
lol, sure.
instructions in ooc would go a long way towards helping your dm in that regard.
To be fair, Kev: You are winning.
True. I didn't assume the talk a big fight and then run without blood being shed. But, I could be wrong.
First hit you've taken. Run now?
no i have an idea i want to play out first lol

Well it was either going to end in a fight or me joining up wit the gang, but then again the fight is still early :)
My Character is all about the flair and misdirection. He travels as a wondering performer doing a tumbling act dressed in an outfit resembeling a Harlequin's outfit.
That's cool.
That's cool.
It is easier to get close to my 'marks' when i am tumbling around thru the crowd they are all looking flashy tumbling and not my hands in their pockets. :)
lol, somewhat. Sure. But flipping around would put all eyes on you rather than off target.
no as I can flip around land being people popping in and out around the crowd. one hand will usually be pointing, waving, tapping people on the head, shoulder, nose etc. Make them look were you want them to look. first rule in magic :)
First rule of magic is that land provides mana.
