The Avalon Chronicles

Game Master lynora

I think it boils down to one simple thing: always assume the best of your fellow players.

Or ... less rusty nails in the Wheaties! :jokes:

That is an excellent point and a good observation, Tybs. I know I struggle with this myself because for me if my language gets really formal it means I am either very very angry or rather drunk. :)

Lol the thought of Lyn drunk amuses me so much

You and pretty much everyone who's ever seen it. I'm a giggly drunk.:)

what amuses me is the fact that she apparently get's fancy when drunk :D

*it was actually hard Cider and hard sweet tea but it had abut this much alcohol

I try not to drink much anymore. Had a long stent of being drunk almost everyday in high school. Pretty well was an alcoholic. No one had any problems with me however.

I'm a very focused drunk.... Anything interesting becomes my entire attention

Drunk for me is rugger down the pub and lots of name calling at the screen with mates, then falling over home.

All that said, I drink rarely. Like once a month. Used to be once a week, but vertigo problems and alcohol are a poor mix. And I get drunk maybe once a year. So it's a rare occasion. :)

Alright, I have too many people running around and too much is going on for me to be able to keep track of it. And in the chaos it's not really practical at this point to just reply to posts. Also, Arthur and Carl you're getting a couple rounds ahead of everyone else, please slow down. I'm trying to catch up as quick as I can and I know other folks are also trying to figure out who is where when. Weekends are supposed to be slow posting time too.

Anyhow, this is me trying to sort out where everybody is.

SIM room: Tami just tried to break enchantment on a dominated Vai. Raelle hasn't acted yet and neither has Ginni. These two both have Improved Evasion. I haven't made their saves yet so I don't know if they even took damage. Can someone remind me of the save DC. I'm getting too confused going through the posts over and over again.
Mel went and Taron hasn't and Karla may or may not have even still been there.

Ephebe is tracking the time traveller. With better data she's certainly likely to get a lot closer.

Aananda is heading towards the infirmary (and should have time to arrive before any further action takes place there as she was a round behind due to my being offline earlier.

Keme teleported into the school looking for Kitty first and next will try to help the others.

Ryleh is off world.
James is still five minutes out.

Also...evacuations? Did I read that right in one of those posts? Who to the what now? This is total chaos and noone has called for evacuations. Not everyone knows what just happened. Remember, rooms move and students blow up the alchemy labs all the time. Not everyone knows that very bad things are happening.

Teachers should be getting notifications that things are wrong in the next round or two. Lycans are getting wounded and/or killed so those who were hanging out with lycans would be aware that things are wrong when the wards don't activate and a few may be starting to find the problems with the infirmary when they try to bring a wounded friend in for treatment.

Which does give me an idea given what I know about another character snd where he should be in all this. :)

Chara and Dara are outside.
Sadie is in her room doing homework.
Ignace is asleep in her room.
Asha hasn't got there yet.
Fieri is not currently at Avalon.

Ooh, let's add to the pathos. Joneh and Rodhas never really took as named PCs...let's say they weere in the infirmary when all hell broke loose.

Morrivan also in the sim room and also hasn't acted yet.

Albin, probably dead, assassinated by the time traveller.

Sorchan is on the shuttle with James.

And Nala is recovering from the attack and trying to head back to help.

Okay, now I think that's everyone.

My summary of events, for what it's worth:

1) Infirmary situation is 'closed' -- all staff/patients ('cept for Hew/Zilla) in the location are dead, zombied, acid/blasted, re-zombied, and finally disintegrated by Yrrin's holy energies. Minor fires were dealt with by Arthur and company, plus some rubble moving, which soon enough is a moot point due to the regenerating building (in theory).

2) There are no evacuations, I believe Carl was being creative and adding to the scene, much like the little girl who got added as well.

3) The halls/rooms are restoring themselves, per the school's tendency to regenerate, per Tybalt's post.

4) Vai's under some enchantment and zapping girl's night SIM room occupants.

So-- at this point, the only 'threats' that might exist, would be finding out who did these attacks (Jaiye and Company) and Infirmary, plus now, apparently, numerous Lycan assaults elsewhere.

A few moments of chaos-- starting with FireclawDrake's invisible plasma blaster, who got thwarted, but all in all, unless there's more plasma blasting and such, I think the chaos is slowing down.

That's what my score card has for now.

Cheers.

ps: Ack! And yet, helping clean up? Hehe.

Dami, thanks. I appreciate it. I've been trying to catch up, but the whole thing got confusing real quick. Alight, so let's say not mass evacuations, but probably a group that was with some of the lycans that got attacked running outside. Got it.

Sun is with chara and dara
lang is away at home
mel is getting zapped and being generally useless right now

Alright, I'll address some of the OOC stuff here and then some of the IC stuff in the gameplay.

Save for the Lightning zap was 22 (only a 5th level spell for Vai after all).

All of your PCs save Tamina and Ginni have a free round to act (since they took actions). We'll say Vai's sudden attack was a surprise round, so you have this round before Vai starts attacking again (thanks to Tami's dust).

Mel also has a round.

Not sure what DB3's or Karla's situations are.

Think I'm just gonna go back to not posting on weekends...

Undone evacuation thing, just thought its what a school would do after a boom like that sorry.

I think it's mostly that the time frame is so short Carl. I imagine a lockdown is more likely than an evac though, with a roaming gunman in the halls. The last thing they'd want to do in this situation is evac all the students so they're in one place - that's a big target, after all.

Plus, who in their right mind would use area of effect attacks against poor hapless innocent people gathered up in one area? That's just evil.

NOTE: Sarcasm!

Kryzbyn, please, when you have a problem with someone try to be as gentle and polite as possible when addressing that problem. 'I don't appreciate your tone here.' is a much better way to express your frustration than 'I don't think that sarcastic s!@& is necessary.' And will generally ensure that legitimate criticism is heard with a much more open mind. This doesn't have to be antagonistic.

Heh you know me, no perceived slight goes unanswered.

Just so you know Mel, you actually can't Inspire Competence in yourself. Not as big of a deal here, especially since it can be explained easily - Mel feels more confident when performing, etc. Just don't want you to get called out on it in a real game. ;)

Never use it in any other game but thanks for the info. Will check on other bard abilities as well

If it matters she is using perform oratory for the effect

Pretty much this. The staff hasn't had time yet to issue an official lockdown.

I will endeavor to curtail knee-jerk responses.

Thank you. :)

I know it's not always easy, but problems get solved a lot faster when they're addressed calmly.

Well didnt go as well as i had hoped but it might have given us more time maybe delay another attack

Am I over stepping it with the Sim room? They aren't dependant on the wards or else they couldn't fight in there right?
With Rosa gone this is kinda an automated response. . . .

Most of the school's systems have been disabled by the intruder Tybs.

(Basically, it's like if the Star Trek holodeck had the Safety overridden.)

The warning system might go off, but it may not do anything beyond distracting folks. Edit: It may also forcefully eject Vai from the sim if she continues for too much longer. Fair?

M'kay. So much for helpful. . . .
See y'all in purgatory. ;)

Ya. I'd say she has a couple attacks left.
I get the feeling that we're gonna need some major wishcraft when this is over. . . .

In unrelated news ours my birthday for the next 27 minutes

Safe to assume the Wearer has Mind Blank up (or is otherwise immune to magical detection)?

For that.... Click here---> for Tybalt

...
+54.

I think my brain just broke.

?They're cool in the show but they are one of the monsters that don't really scare me IRL. I'm not scared by things other people imagine. I'm only tormented by things my own mind makes . . . .

Happy Birthday. :)

Nice try though. :)

? ? ? Did you never watch "time of angels"?

I watched all of the show post hiatus and select episode pre hiatus.
They just don't scare me.
One time I freaked ice out by photo shopping one into his computer wallpaper. XD
And if they really did that you couldn't post the link cause you'd be dead. ;)

I have mentioned several times that this villain is very dangerous, yes? :)

Cause I can say it again if I haven't.

...
Shut. Up.
And no- i didn't notice, not till you told me However, i would have throw, my computer if i did and you hadn't told me that you did it.

Anyway, i may be less active for a while.
Dealing with a lost of stressful crap right now.

I'm level ten and I have a +55-2 to stealth without the invisibility I can do. Plus I can hide from blind sense and sight and also scent. Also in bright light with only a -10
:)
Look up the hellcat feats. :)

fine with me, I'm not going to pull the assassins punches now though...

I need an AC please

The sheer level that would take is absurd-

Or have constant true strike.
A first level spell i curse the existence of.

How about roll and I'll tell you (it's quite high, but definitely within the reach of most of the more combat-oriented PCs). ;)

Still waiting on Ephebe anyway.

Icehawk - there are a couple /students/ in the school who can hit +51 attack. Enre at least, and Fei as well if I'm not mistaken.

My to-hit isn't all that insane. I just hit at one of the lowest AC values possible. :)

...
That...
I think my brain is dead.

How is that even possible?

(Without horizon walker, a secretly overpowered as heck class.)

AC flatfooted, no armor bonus and since I'm aiming for cracks in armor I take a -8 (eyeball equivalent)

And I'll wait on Lyn too before I start

And I hope the character has a Marvelous fort save because these weapons are quite mean
