brvheart's Reign of Winter Game (Inactive)

Game Master brvheart

Still need to pick a level one spell but rest is done I think.

Nah, my wife wants to play it and does not wish to play the same thing twice as she puts it in an online game.

Going through some of the characters, I see that many of you have yet to complete your backstories. Please work on this as you have time. Refer to the players guide for Reign of Winter for details. One of the two of you later players may come from out of the area.

Is my background story enough or are you looking for more?

It is a tad sparse, but ok. Try and add to it as you go on. I need to get someone to tie in with the Northlands somehow. Not sure Autumn will work.

I'd imagined Paletress to be from the North, though I don't recall specifically what large human town might be up that way.

That might work if your father is from across the sea.

Sparhawk is looking for an intelligent artifact called the bhelliom which has the power to save a princess, his knight order sent him to find it. Not sure if that might tie in somehow. Maybe he was told its in the northland's.

Paletress never knew her father, as he died before she was born, but she strongly suspects she gets her 'nervous reactions' from him. I wanted to make sure that there was plenty of room for adding on later.

Is XP advancement slow, medium or fast? My current XP count assumes medium

Beollimandus LVL 1 -> 2 XP: 2000

HP: 1d10 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12

BAB +1 -> +2
FORT +2 -> +3
SPECIAL: Order Ability - A cavalier that belongs to the order of the shield gains the following ability at second level -> Resolute (Ex) Whenever the cavalier takes damage from a melee or ranged attack while wearing heavy armor, the cavalier can convert one point of lethal damage into one point of nonlethal damage. This ability cannot be use to convert ability damage, ability drain, or energy damage to nonlethal damage. At 6th level, and every four levels thereafter, the amount of damage the cavalier can convert increases by 1.
SKILLS: +1 Ride (+4->+5), +1 Knowledge(local) (+5->+6), +2 Climb (+1->+6), +2 Swim (+1->+6)

I wish everyone a happy Christmas and that you all are with family and/ or loved ones to share a few moments of peace.
For those working on those days, I did that for many years, and my respect for those who do their duty even on those days!
Happy Christmas
Frohe Weihnacht

Happy Holidays friends!

Merry Christmas, have a good holiday everybody!

Happy New Year!!!!

Happy new year! Was at a 24 hour charity gameathon and offline lol.

Life long and prosper!

May all your hits be crits!

I happened to notice another current RoW game come up and thought you might like to know that even though they started a month earlier, this group is quite a bit ahead of them. They are still at the lodge and level 1 with around 800 posts.

Ok, holidays are over. Normal posting rates should be resuming now. Let's try and pick the game up please.

@ brvheart, just looked at the roll20 map, I thought I posted Seamus was behind the others, didn't realize he was in the front,

@ the team, do we have an outdoor or indoor marching order? If we are inside I assume Seamus would be in the front looking for things, traps and such. If we are outdoors I assume he will be in the back letting the people with survival and the people with mounted combat experience be in the front.

@ Brocken, oh, when were done he can use healing with Paletress...

Paletress should be assumed to be at the front at all times when outdoors.

Hey guys wife lost the baby at 2.5mo will be out for a few days NPC me and please pass on to other games you are in with me Robert thanks.

We are OK but could use your prayers

Dang I thought my news stunk, We will be praying for you and your family, I will send the word to the other games evandariel.

Hey brvheart:

Due to a change in responsibilities at work, and my father-in-law beginning a regular extended chemotherapy, I feel I need to step away from the games I am playing in. I apologize that it will delay and alter the games. After having played In some games over a year and a half I assumed I would be able to continue the games through to their finish but real life has raised its ugly head. Thanks for running the game. Good luck and good gaming to all.

Sorry to hear about that Jason. My first wife and I lost one about that stage at one time. It gets easier, but you never forget.

Ok, we will continue with five. Just need to work on rogue duties somehow.

Thanks Greg. We had our little funeral service and everything is done so I am back now.

I just got a new laptop. I am ready to get going again all.

Hello all. Rogue checking in for duty.

New round let's see if we can save Spar hawk!

Hi all going to be away until April 17 limited access to the boards. Brvheart bot me as needed.

Due to general burn out and the fact that this game has not been proceeding the way I had hoped, I am going to put this game on hiatus for awhile. My health has also not been the best of late either. I need to cut back.

That sucks. But understandable. I have been pretty burned out too from work, but will be here if you start it up again.

Oh. Well. Rats.

Very sad to hear. Get better! We miss you

Get well, my friend.

Back by popular demand, we are going live again on Reign of Winter.

so who is still with you?

Brocken, Autumn and Paletress so far.

HUP!

Soy aqui!

Good luck all. Had to decline full slate of games for me right now.

Happy gaming!

Looks like we need a Younis replacement before officially starting this up again? Or we good to go as is?

Robert is back so we are good to go as far as that. Kara is talking about making a new character though. She is out of town with her family for the week.

Ok just let me know. We might want to wait until after holidays

We still doing this one?
