Rules of the investigation:
There is an extra ruleset in this scenario to reflect you interacting with a location or major characters:
  • Each day will be split into 3 different phases - morning, afternoon, evening - quick errands, or your meetings to compare notes do not count as an extra phase. A phase represents time you spend investigating and gathering information.
  • At the beginning of a phase, each of you would select a location to investigate
  • At the end of a phase (or during), depending on your success, you will be given information from the locals to help you with the investigation.
  • Note that each location can provide a limited amount of information. As such, I would advise to "Split up, and search for clues.", and perhaps later meet up to compare what you found out.

I cannot seem to dot post to Game play it just puts me in previewmode what ever I do I'll try posting again in a bit (maybe Monday CST)

Interestingly enough, you are not listed as active despite having posted here in discussion. Try posting as a different character and then editing the post?

Otherwise we will try to make a new thread. Or continue in the old one - Dead Man's Debt.

Can do

That is because you are posting the same thing that others posted.

Just post with random characters and delete.

You have to post in Gameplay to be listed as active--posting in the Discussion thread doesn't do it.

Devin heads back to forges and creates some armor that does not get in the way quite so much. Will be buying.

I'm going to switch from Essilor to this character.

Looks like we have plenty of blasters without me bringing in one more.

Shenendril focuses on healing, summoning and archering.

Although, I guess it's not really "focusing" if it's 3 things...

Shen, you’ve been here longer, so I can bring a level 3 Warpriest instead, if you’d like to continue with the same character.

That switch would bump up the subtier by 1. Your call, people.

Nah. Shenendril's good. I need to put some money in her bank to get a cool magic item, anyway.

I think I need to level her up, though...

I'll check and work on that, tomorrow.

We may not have the best party mix for it, though: we have only two front-liners (L3 and L2), and four characters who qualify as soft underbelly. Shenendril and Devin are the most vulnerable of us, though, and I'll defer to them.

(Incidentally, this is my 37,000th post to the boards. Over a quarter of those were from my DM aliases...I guess I've run a fair number of games.)

Of course, my first post to the boards was over thirteen years ago, so I've had a bit more time to reach that milestone.

A higher tier is ok by me.

I made a slide with marching order. Please set that up. Link is in my post header.

I am in the office at the moment, but will answer your in character stuff when I get home.

Ok, I’m fine with keeping Ninnic then and staying in this tier.

Ilarien, I know the feeling. I hit 45k posts earlier this week! Pretty amazing to think of just how much time I’ve put in on a site.

Lastly, could someone please copy Ninnic into the marching order? I’m a phone poster so I struggle with that. Somewhere around the middle would be great, thanks!

I don't mind playing up. I likes me some out of subtier gold and I (usually) know how to stay out of the way.

Those are impressive numbers. I'm at only about 9k, myself.

There are scenarios where playing up is not recommended (*cough* The Dalsine Affair *cough*), but it doesn't sound like this is one.

Hi GM, do you want us just roll what we think is appropriate or do you want us to only roll dice when prompted by you?

In order to not get into a "roll-play" situation where all of you just do 9 rolls for 9 remaining phases, we will do it a bit more organically. With conversation and you responding to the scene in whatever ways you feel fit. If I (and hopefully you as well) feel like a roll for x is appropriate, I would ask you to do one. Obviously, I suggest you try to play into your character's strengths. For example Zandu not attempting to impress someony by reading a spell scroll (UMD), etc.

Am I correct in assuming that it's just one skill check per cycle? Meaning I can RP, if I want but not make another check for more info?

Correct. It is one check per phase. You can not make a check in the same area either. That is, one character can not. If you wish to gather rumors in the same area, it needs to be a different character.

We can probably move to the second phase by now, unless somone wants to do anything else right now.

You can meet and discuss what you found out without starting a new phase, if you wish.

Whenever you're ready.

Go for it I'm underwater with work right now so if you want to auto pilot me that's OK hopefully things will be better by Monday.

Sakura looks at Zandu.

“I believe that it is time to speak to the Sherrif! I have taken notes of our findings and we should share those with our colleagues. Come on!“ she says with little emotion.

I have a question about how to read this, noral. Having been exposed to Schoolhouse Rock when my kids were growing up, I think of THIS when I see exclamation points used to end a sentence. This is inconsistent with speaking with little emotion, at least at first glance, so I wondered how you meant for that to be read.

I'll give Devin 24 hrs to post. Then I will bot him in this phase.

Bump?
