I know it's crazy talk, but if for some reason Signy wasn't Ruler, Regent would be a good fit.
Stat-wise Minister works but I don't see the role meshing with her character well.
Councilor or High Priest would fit Teryll best stat wise.
Maybe Spymaster, particularly given his class features/ role.
But like I said, we'll see how things pan out as things progress RP wise.
Under the updated kingdom roles, spymaster is the most obvious choice for Halden. He has the right stats and is probably the member of the group most willing to get into some shady business.
General is also a possibility, especially if I choose to focus more on strength and melee combat leveling up.
Yeah, Regent is a good fit for her. I get a feeling she cares about the common people.
Yeah, she has the common touch, and it's even a religious obligation for her.
But when she's Queen it will be the same. She will be beloved by all the people. :)
Uhm.....yeah.....that's real reassuring there.

Whether they like it or not!
Heh heh heh...

All hail our queen! Not dark, but beautiful and terrible as the dawn! Treacherous as the sea! Stronger than the foundations of the earth! All shall love her, and despair!
That’s the spirit Pyros! You might just get that spot as consort after all. Keep up the good work!

This won't end badly at all.

What can I say? Pyros knows how to sweet talk a girl...
The player knows not to leave an enemy behind.
:)
The character being relatively inexperienced and kind of uncertain of the whole situation does not.
He does now. Just a matter of how long will he carry that learning experience

Live and learn or die and GNC.
Either way it's a lesson.
I'm assuming Kern's action is spoken for this round. Is Teryll the only one otherwise acting before the assassin?
I believe that's correct.

For combat, I do block initiative. Also, to speed up the start, I usually roll everyone's initiative so I can set up the order of combat at the beginning without waiting for everyone to post. I hope that's OK with everyone?
I like for people to do what Teryll did, post a small status block after they complete their actions. Just current hp/max hp, current AC taking into account actions (Combt Exp, Def. Fighting, etc.) and conditions (hasted, shaken, etc.). Also, list conditions if appropriate.
When taking your actions, it also helpful if you list them by type (swift, free, standard, etc.)
You appear to understand normal posting standards (bold for speech, italics for thoughts, ooc, spoiler tags, etc.). Any questions about anything? I realize that in taking over we never actually had an organizational post.
I'm also in the U.S. in EST zone.
US CST. Posting the block at the end is new for me, and will take some getting used to, but I’ll manage.
US EST. But I work graveyard shift so I'm asleep in the middle of the day
U.S. Pacific time zone here
I'm US Pacific.
Okay
Somebody thinks she's already queen. lol
I know right.
What happend to the ditzy girl with no filter?

That’s an important consideration, thanks for reminding me. I work 0330-1200, and usually sleep a good part of the afternoon.
FYI for the stat block
On my profile page there's a spoiler called "macros"
It's got the update blocks I use each post.
I always have a hard time remembering to update the headers so I use that to track at the end of each turn.
I know right.
What happend to the ditzy girl with no filter?
Ha! She's still there, but this is a different context. Signy's a Caydenite from toes to hair. She's not going to run from a righteous fight. As her character personality sections says, Signy is confident and assertive, but perhaps a little naive in her idealism. She can be stubborn about things and has a bossy streak.
There's a big distinction between my lobbying for her to be queen here (which is mostly just me joking around) and IC Signy in the game thread. Ask Signy IC if she wants to be queen of anything and she'd laugh at you like you're crazy.
In meta terms what I'm suggesting with Sigy's plan is this: For the first couple of levels combat is very swingy and there's a lot of luck involved. The trick is more landing hits than doing enough damage. We need to limit the number of attacks we're taking because we're all fragile.
If we're attacking a single opponent three or maybe more times per turn we can remove an attack against us per round even with missed attacks with a little luck. What we don't want is to go multiple rounds of several opponents with fewer HP each but as many attacks against us as before.
Of course we just ran into 5 enemies at once including ranged attackers. I wasn't expecting that, so I don't know how well Signy's plan is going to work.
EST here as well.
On my phone ATM. Will post this evening
Starting in a little while, I'll be on little mini vacation with the family, so may not post until Sunday.
Signy, while it probably won't make you feel any better my dice are normally pretty terrible. Doesn't matter if it's forum RNG or at the real life table.
I played a core rogue to level 20 / mythic 3 in a friend's home brew game. The GM nicknamed him "Fumbles". After all my bonuses I was at a + 50 to stealth, + 40-something to disable divice and + 30 to a few other skills. Most of the time I could not roll above a 10 to save my life.
It was terrible how badly it went sometimes. I was lucky we had a good cleric in the party to keep the character alive.
Oh I've seen people who are less lucky than me to be sure. I do roll high occasionally, mostly natural 20s on DC 10 or 12 skill checks. :p
I'm back
Should be fixed now
Aside from a plethora of leather and studded leather armors, shortswords, daggers, and mundane gear;
a longbow
a composite longbow
a breastplate
a suit of chainmail
a suit of banded mail
14 more potions.

JUst wanted everyone to know that I am delayed. I am in Law School and started the new semester. Between that and work, the last two days were kind of filled. Normally, this won't be a problem, but the timing of starting a combat that needed me to make a map was problematic. I will have all of tomorrow (Friday) afternoon to work on it.
I also plan to make maps for the next several set encounters over the weekend so I don't get caught short again.
Again, my apologies for the delay.
No worries, we are patient.
It's been over a week and you haven't disappeared, so you're already doing better than our last GM
Yep, no problem at all.
We're here. Real life comes first.
No worries.
All I would ask is that you keep us posted if there's a delay, as you've been doing.
Not a problem.
