Thirst - A Ravenloft PbP

Game Master Celestial Healer

On a less nefarious note, I will be adding another PC after you finish with this wererat den. Taig (Mike Welham of RPG Superstar fame!) will be joining the party.

Just thought I would give a heads up!

Yay, glad to have him aboard. More insanity and fun abound I'm sure.

Yeah! Welcome to the madness Taig! It's great to have you join us.

Ah, it should be interesting to see taig do serious. Welcome!

Great stuff. The more the merrier.

I require cosplay with a tail and ears again!!!!!

Sometimes I can't help thinking to myself, "I never thought I would describe something like that in a messageboard post."

Because it's easy to lose sight of these things, here is a reminder of what you are doing in this house:

1. Madame Gustalarde has a grudge against the Sisters of Charity, mostly because she thinks they helped you kill off some members of her pack. You are hoping to take her out so that she does not bring retribution upon the hospital.

2. Closely related wererats have the same triggers. If you can figure out what triggers the afflicted wererats here, you may be able to find out what could trigger a transformation in any of you that may have been infected.

Thanks for that, reminds me to watch out for 2 some more.

Weird - fighting guards who look like my priest in one of these pbp games.

And I think this is going to be a tough fight, so my magus may go "nova" in these encounters. Especially when he may be triggered sometime soon.

Cheers

Well, I don't know what happened to my initiative roll of 7 immediately following Tybalt's roll, but I'll take CH's 14 quite happily!

I just grabbed any old human avatar for the guards :) As for the difficulty, at this rate, these guards are not going to be much of a threat. They would actually have to be able to take actions for you to be in any danger...

I'm working on my character, who will be introduced in good time.

Yes, serious roleplay will be a challenge, but I can do it. :)

We're currently in the Addams Family Conservatory. :D

I will admit I was running into wererat fatigue and decided to throw in a little variety.

Thanks. I prefer my plantlife cooked and on a plate.

It looks like home life is about to get real busy. My wife has been offered a job teaching in the Channel Islands at the end of August. My time will not be my own until September thus NPCing may be needed along the way.

Cheers

Thanks for the heads up!

Cool, the Channel Isles should be lovely at that time of year. Is it some Summer school? Or seasonal teaching? Or do they just have a different schedule?

Its a pretty standard further education college, so three terms running from September until the following July. Her post is temporary, but we know the islands well enough and the quality of life is high.

Plus there is plenty of table top gaming and even some larp hopefully.

Cheers

Sounds like a great opportunity!

I'm ready, except for my background...

You should be 5th. The party will be getting quite a bit of experience from all this.

If they survive...

Now I'm ready stat-wise...

Eliva's going to make it out, no matter what!

I WANT BANE!!!!!!!!

This is payback for that fireball isn't it? :p

Sounds like a great opportunity!

Career-wise and financially it is good. Just waiting to here the final package now, especially when my wife's work doesn't seem that secure at the moment. But the list of jobs over the next eight weeks is a bit daunting.

More importantly - what fireball, Tordek? I hope no one has upset our DM in another game....

As for going for the cleric, Leandro, I will be doing the same. It is one of my least favourite monsters (as a player) and quite capable of killing a PC on its own.

Cheers

This is payback for that fireball isn't it? :p

I'm not that petty.

Or am I?

Nope. I'm not.

I know you aren't. I was just kidding. I just couldn't resist.

Gah! I was running out of library time yesterday and thought I could only channel for 1d6 but lay on hands for 2d6, so I went for the LoH. Puffin corrected me today at lunch. Yeah, I woulda healed the twigjack, but at least everyone else would have gotten some Divine Love, too. Sorry, guys.

Kill the evil rose that mocks Shelyn's love of beauty, great paladin!!!

A white rose that sucks your blood until it turns red is seriously creepy.

I think it's very cruel you're taking advantage of my plant phobias here, Celestial!

Did I know that you had plant phobias? Maybe you mentioned it, but it hadn't occurred to me until now.

Well, we already got spiders, rats, and clowns. Why not creepy plants, too?

Because they're not nearly as terrifying as PLANTS!!!

I am out of town until Sunday evening. I don't know what kind of access I'll have.

Good to know. If you are up and are taking a while, I will have you shoot an arrow at it :)

surprise!

if hte fight is done, she will actually cast one Lesser restoration on the poor magus with his con damage. Ouchie.

don't worry guys, the DM will be back one he's done cat burglarizing.

Scram! it's the cops!

So, I'll be away from sometime on Thursday to Monday. I'm going to a music festival - there's little chance of me having internet access. Sorry about this, feel free to GMPC Tybalt as needed.

I am moving out over the next two days and then its lots of family goodbyes before we head over the Channel next Wednesday. Hopefully I can pop in for the odd post but there is always one more job.

Wednesday after work, I will be flying off to Indianapolis for GenCon. I expect my available time to post will be quite sparse Thursday through Monday. Feel free to GMPC Res as needed.

Have fun!

Hitting the road tonight and probably offline all day tomorrow *shudderI. I think it's also GenCon travel day.

Safe travels!

Loot Discussions:

That sounds good equipment distribution. Tybalt has a decent CLW wand, so it should probably go elsewhere.
I'm not really bothered by the undead bane dagger.

Whoops posted in the IC thread!
I would re-post here but I don't want to lose that HP roll* :P

Does Leandro want the alter self, give him more options.

I'll let you keep the 6 if you want :)

Yay, hugs & tea for you.

Do I get scones too? I like scones.

So long as you pronounce them "S-Cons" rather than "S-Cones" :P

(actually town I live at has one of the most prestigious/expensive tea-rooms in the country).

I forget, do we have to roll?

I took the 5 (for a d8)...
