What did we decide about a group wand of CLW? I'm happy to carry it and keep track of charges.
I'm pretty sure we decided to get it. I think you'd be the best choice to carry it as it's not on my spell list and I might fail when casting it.
Since Bartholomew has the Swift Alchemy ability, he can make alchemical items in half the normal amount of time. I think that means he can make all three, but I'm open to feedback from the GM or other players who've worked with the Crafting rules before.
Nice! Will I take the alchemist's fire and Sven the acid then?
Also, I decided to buy the following scrolls with my loot:
1 x Scroll of Comprehend Languages
2 x Scroll of Detect Secret Doors
1 x Scroll of Feather Fall
2 x Scroll of Heightened Awareness
2 x Scroll of Protection from evil
2 x Scroll of True Strike
1 x Scroll of Liberating Command
Any others people want me to get?
I finally just got some time today to sit down and do my PbP games and ... I feel queasy from something I ate, and can't concentrate. I'm gonna see if a nap helps and hopefully post a bit later tonight.
Thanks for the bot, GM. Work’s been stupid busy and I can’t access Roll20 from my phone.
I know that feeling. Even when you can access it from your phone, it's a lot more difficult to use than a laptop or desktop! Or maybe that's just me.

Tossing out a note to all my games. I will be off to Disney World next week with my family and the extended family starting Saturday morning through the following Saturday night. As such my posting will be limited to non-existent. I will try and check in if I can in the morning or at night but not sure how that will go. So just be prepared for a bit of a slow-down over the next week.
Enjoy your trip!
We will miss you! Have fun, tell us how galaxy’s edge is if you can do it. :)
Hehe that is the like the one and only thing I am 100% making sure I do no matter what :P.
Hey all, I'm headed out of town tonight through Sunday to hang out with family. I'm bringing my laptop and I'll try to make time to post while I'm gone but I may be a bit slow. Probably won't post on Thursday.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Sorry to say and its a bit late in coming, but I need to withdraw from this game in order to focus on several threads I am the GM on. My time to spend on this pastime has shrunken lately and I have to make hard choices about how to spend it. Sorry to leave you all in the lurch. Wish you all the best!

Dropping a note in all my games, I am back from my week long vacation. Hope everyone who celebrated had a good Thanksgiving. Going to be working on catching up on things but I got sick over the weekend so moving a bit slower than normal. In any case, I will get caught up ASAP.

Sorry to hear that but thanks for letting us know! Khalbar will be missed!
Well, POOH! I knew something was going to end up giving . . ..
And we all find the available time adjusting over time. That's just life.
Thanks for playing Khalbar! It was fun while we had you.
Hey all, I had a life emergency today and I can't focus enough to post in my PbP games. I apologize and I promise I will post tomorrow.
Hey. Real life.
I live in a 3 generation home.
This last weekend, both of the youngest generation (one is 2 the other just had her first birthday) got sick. So did their mom. Monday so did their dad. Somewhere in there, grandma got sick, too. Now I'm sick. At least the youngest seems to be over it.
If you need to bot me to keep things moving, please do.
I'm sorry, but I'm not even managing to focus to play spades on my phone right now, and that's amazingly brainless.
If there are ever issues with accessing the map you can send me a ping on Discord and I can take a quick screen cap and post it.
Ooo, that would be lovely! I don't know if I can contact you via Discord though. Do you have a channel/thread/whatever set up?
Let me know your name and I can add you to the appropriate game channel.
Heads up - I will be spending the next week in a cabin in the woods with limited internet access. As a result of this, my posting may be somewhat delayed. Please feel free to bit me or delay me if needed and I will jump back in whenever possible. Thanks for understanding!
Apologies again for the sparse posting lately—I've had some life things that have kept me from making PbP a daily priority. But I definitely don't want to drop or anything and I'll do my best to keep up and hopefully things will smooth out soon and i'll be back to posting daily-ish. Thanks for understanding.
Happy holidays everyone!
The generic post to share before attempting to recovery post:
So, I got the flu. Not really over it, yet, but past the worst of it.
I went to get tested to verify it was flu, and the care providers went down the "better safe than sorry hole" a might to far, in my opinion.
Standard questions, designed to check for other, deeper concerns/problems, right? "Do you have any tightness in your chest?" "I've been coughing for about three days at this point, yes, I have a tightness in my chest!" So, they stopped everything about verifying the flu in order to check for a heart attack. Thing is, my fever had just started to break, and I was not only DRENCHED in sweat, but I was still actively sweating that hard. They couldn't get a good EKG read because the contact stickers wouldn't. Stick, I mean.
They called an ambulance and transferred me to an ER, to make sure I wasn't having a heart attack. The ER team was focused on EXACTLY one thing, for obvious reasons. First thing they did different? They took that super medical tape and taped the sensors down. EKG told them almost immediately that there was no heart attack going on. I was still in that ER for nearly 15 hours . . ..
IV fluids. Roughly 2.4 liters of fluid pushed into my system. Breathing treatment. Seems when I arrived in the ER, my O2 saturation was around 82. They started to admit me in order to watch my O2 saturation levels, but after I sat in their ER for that long without any further dips, they accepted it might not still be required and discharged me instead of continuing to wait for a room. Having an asthmatic wife means we have a nebulizer at home, and that helped sell the release, too. Still spending more time asleep than awake, for now.
Missed a couple of Santa gigs the family had lined up. Went to a photoshoot with a family yesterday. I was there for about 10 minutes, just needing to sit and smile, but I stumbled into the house when I got home, completely exhausted. I'm supposed to go get caught in a neighbor's house tonight. Very worried about going. Just as worried about denying their kids.
Oh my gosh, that’s pretty scary. I hope everything works out. Keep the nebulizer on and try to get fluids. The flu sucks.
That is rough, the flu can be nasty, sucks they put you through all that for nothing though.

Hope everyone is enjoying the holidays. I'm moving slower than usual with all the family time and festivities myself, but I will start moving us forward on the 2nd, if those still with actions left can get a post in before then. If not I will bot as needed.
Everyone have a safe and enjoyable New Years!
Hope everyone had a good New Year! Just dropping a note that I am back to a regular schedule again so can post more frequently once again. Hope that we can get back to a quick pace again now that the holidays are over so we can get this thing moving! We are so close to finishing book 1!
Hey all. Has everyone updated their GP total from when we went shopping before? I'd like to delete the old items from back then and update the list with our current haul to leave things easier to track.
Heh Nyx, we were waiting for you to get back. I think you’re our main source of healing. Do you know if we got a wand? I don’t think we did.
You do have a wand. I'm not sure the charge count currently though. If I'm not mistaken it was purchased with the party loot share, though not sure who is accounting for that share.
And both Sven and Bartholomew can also use the wand in a pinch - which could certainly be handy should the worst happen to our favorite preacher.
5 charges of wand used as of just after Ripnugget. I did my self buffs - any others we want to do?
@Dak: I've been tracking the Party fund. It got the same split as the rest of the pcs and the only thing it was used to purchase so far was the CLW wand. I've updated the loot sheet with the party fund details in the notes section. We have a few potions lumped in there as well that I don't think we've used so far.
Do you guys want me to update the loot sheet so you can track stuff for each individual character including the party? Something like this one I use for a game I play in: Link
Not going to lie... that looks pretty handy. I assume the loot sheet works in a similar way to the current sheet and then you copy/paste over to the char sheet when finalized?
Yup, exactly.
Well, it gets my vote anyway! ;)
Works.
I've been tracking our party CLW wand in Hero Lab. I'll note the recent uses and scroll back a bit to make sure they're all accounted for. Checking in on gameplay now...
Hello everyone! I'm here to be your new front-liner. I submit to you Uvara the Crimson, current tiefling paladin of Ragathiel and eventual Crimson Templar. Her backstory will likely require some more polish and I still have some starting gold to spend, but I think she is mostly done. I'm very excited to join you!
Hey Uvara! Welcome to the group! The character sounds like an interesting addition to the party. Looking forward to seeing how she develops!
Hello! Glad to have a new friend to help us hit things!
Updated the loot sheet.
Nice one, thanks Dak!
I finalized Uvara's gear and appearance, so I'm ready to go whenever you guys find me!
I wish you could give us a hint as to the door!
Yeah, me too! Unfortunately I don't even know. I believe in you!
Can’t access the map from mobile, but this sounds like a lovely opportunity for a Bomb! Moreso if nobody else goes into the room before Bartholomew can act - don’t want to hit someone with splash damage.
Or were we supposed to leave these ones be? The chief mentioned only removing longshanks from downstairs.
Hehe quite the dilemma...
