Solos's Untitled Campaign

Game Master Solos

Calling to Oleg indicates he is having to speak loudly due to distance between the two of them

Going straight to the goods indicates that they are stacked up and ready to go prior to the bandits arrival.

And the food on the table was "laid" out, it did not state that she was currently laying out the food as they arrived.

The calling to Oleg I can agree with you on that to a good degree,

two go straight to the trade goods and start loading packs =
Doors must be open, they have ridden in, and are in the act of taking their Goods.

three head to a table that Svetlana had laid food out upon =
Doors must be open, they have ridden in, and are in the act of getting ready to eat the laided out food

As predicted the bandits (6 total) ride up and into the fort just after sunrise, two go straight to the trade goods and start loading packs, three head to a table that Svetlana had laid food out upon, and the leader gets off his horse and calls to Oleg

Got the first map up

Bandit Outpost

I thought from previous conversations that the doors would already be open since Oleg stated that the bandits told him to leave them open on the day they would arrive.

And just because they are taking their goods, it doesn't mean that there is anyone handing the goods to them

Laid is past tense, meaning that the food was already placed upon the table, though it is present tense that the bandits are heading to a table that has food laid out upon it.

I'm going to be updating the map with Player Icons in the grid,
Please give me your coordinates on the map.

apologies for being unclear. Svetlana, put out food, but is currently in the building she lives in, Oleg is standing nervously by the door to the same building, and will be heading inside as fast as possible when violence breaks out. (he only stayed outside as bandits would expect him to be there).

I have a suggestion for the whole map issue; I do not believe it's necessary to edit it with our positions. As long as there are coordinates, only stating them would be quicker and easier (at the expense of not being able to see the situation at a glance, of course). Less work in map upkeep.

Edit: This is not to say that the map as it is isn't good work :)

So a generic map with no Icons (already up),

It'll also resolve me having to ask for coordinates each time.

It took me awhile to get the map to a usable size

The map is not the issue.

I gathered, but it takes at least one variable out of it:)

I do hope you can stay Kaylee, I feel that Jaestra and yourself could have a good friendship. Both being worshippers of Erastil, both being women and both being the shortest in the group.

I have to agree,

This amount of conflict is also bad for me and making me also considering leaving.

I can conclude that either we are so much alike we repel each other (like two positively charged atoms),
or so opposite each other we can't find a common ground.

And my character actually has two progression routes (with no changes to current character)
Barbarian->Sorcerer->DD
Barbarian->Oracle->Rage Prophet (Dragon Blood doesn't awaken)

Kaylee, I'd agree with Jaestra and Gaddak and I'm sorry to hear you're leaving the game. It seemed like the initial group had a really good vibe going, which you were a part of. But I understand if it isn't working for you at this point.

Out of the choices between Full Cleric and Barbarian-Oracle-Rage Prophet, I would have to say having the Cleric would be better. It would mean we have a strong healer in the group, instead of a character who dabbles in healing.

Also as Vorik said, the initial group worked really well and I would like to have it that fun again. I am not saying that I dislike Valeria, it is just that she does not seem to fit into this group too well. She is a great character concept and seems like you put a lot into her, but it does feel that her arrival has brought a lot of tension to the group.

I hope you do not take offence at this.

I don't take any offense to it.

As I posted above I was considering leaving,
as me and her are like oil and water.

@Solos and group
I would ask that you remove all references to Valeria as if she did not exist in all further posts.

I'll be taking down the icon map, since it won't be getting updates.
but I'll leave up the Generic map.

Solos / Varash : You still here and running this campaign? It is just the quietest this game has been so far.

Christmas has slowed many a game, when the new year is done, expect it to go at full speed.

Solos, I know it's the holidays, but it would be helpful if we could get an ETA for when things might start up again. It would also be helpful to me if we could confirm who is still active within the game. Right now, I've got the following:

Vorik - Paladin
Jaestra - Ranger
Peregrine - Wizard
Gaddack - Inquisitor

Kaylee may or may not be in at this point.

Valeria is out.

Did I miss anyone or anything? Hopefully we can get this going again in the next couple of days as it seemed like it might be an interesting campaign.

In.

Kaylee, I'm glad you've decided to stay. :)

I second that, I am glad to see we will be adventuring together Kaylee.

I think I'm going to give this another week before I stick a fork in it and call it done.

Solos if you're still out there and want to continue (or don't, for that matter) please give us a sign, it would be greatly appreciated.

Do you think that we should put out a Recruitment Post, for a new GM? I really want to play this campaign and adventure with you all. We have started to build friendships and impressions of each other.

I do hope that Solos will return and be able to post more regularly though.

I'm okay waiting until this Friday for solos to return. But if we don't hear anything by then, I would be open to looking for a new GM who would be willing to take over.

Also, Happy New Year everyone!

I second that. And, seeing as it's Friday, we should probably be thinking about how to handle this. I really like this game and would like to continue playing.

I too want this game to continue, so should we put out a recruitment for a GM? I think Solos has been gone far too long, so I doubt they will return. I don't mind putting in a post in the recruitment thread, stating our current situation.

I'm ready to move forward. I think we've allowed enough time to pass to be fair to Solos, and I would like to continue with this group. It seems like we all agree.

Jaestra, since you volunteered :), I'd say go ahead and post something when you get the chance.

I have put the post in and hopefully we will have a GM bite the line quickly so that we can continue with this campaign. My fingers are crossed.

I'll see If any GMs I know will help you out,
but that is all I will do.

As I could save your game, but am currently saving and running 3 games where the GM has disappeared over the winter break (including Solos's group 1) and can't bail anymore out until the respective GMs return to their games.

Hi guys ... if you're interested I'll take a look over your characters and posts tonight and tomorrow. Unless I'm trumped by a superior DM, I'd gladly take over for you.

I think what I'd like to do is start a new thread and have the first post links to the first three pages of your IC. A fresh start while keeping continuity. Some great stuff there. I have the map ready just let me know ASAP who is still in.

sample map

Still in.

DM Bloodgargler, you are a campaign saver! I am still in and more than happy for you to take over.

Alright!

I am certainly game to give it another go.

Good to hear ... I've opened the thread, starting when Gaddak appears. We can redo initiative after his call to surrender.

link to thread

If we hear from the last two we can get started.

Thanks Bloodgargler!. I'm ready and will post on the new thread shortly. I think I'm the last one to 'check in.'

Ah yes ... missed Azure saying remove my character on your last page. OK I will remove VITA on next map update unless something changes. Gaddak, feel free to ask for their surrender whenever your ready and we'll start from there.

He's right in that Valeria is out,

OK gotcha thanks

Gaddak, are you still with us?
