I was curious if Ohime even hit? I didn't see if mentioned. Maybe I missed it. Was he poisoned?
| Sorogar Twintusk |
Ah, sorry. Yeah, i didn't add inspire courage. Thanks.
Suppose i should mention this here too: I'm currently going back and forth to the hospital a lot to visit my son. I might not be able to post as much or engagingly as normal, and i might miss some things like inspire courage. Apologies in advance.
| Ohimè S’adel |
Not a problem Sorogar. I know what that's like. I hope your son gets better and I'll say a prayer for him. We'll make it work.
This also goes for everyone. I like to post emotions and movements that Ohime is doing. Sometimes this can get a little longer than some posts, but is altogether unnecessary. Also, don't feel you need to make a 6 paragraph post to match it (unless you want to); especially if you are hurting for free time. One word posts are cool with me. If posting less is easier, go for that. I'm content with the joy of reading anything you write.

@harkymr I don't mind sharing. He was recently born with a construction error in his heart, which requires multiple surgeries to fix. One very major one was missed until after his birth, and requires him in the hospital since birth, so I travel back and forth a lot. It's going tentatively well in that he seems to be gradually improving, but there've been setbacks as well. It's a bit of a roller coaster ride.

Color Spray works!
And here I was thinking I should change it out.
Oh.....................
I just realized that the init tracker is on the top of the page........

NOt meaning to bot you. been trying to give you time to respond before I move everyone ahead as well. sorry if it keep irritates you not intentional. Your spells are hurting though.
| Brek of Unknown House |
Not irritated.
Just smacking myself for not thinking through properly. The init tracker was on top and here I was wondering when was my turn.
| Sorogar Twintusk |
On initiative, what might help slightly for speed is simply grouping people together on the turn order. So that all parties members who can act before/in between the enemies rake their turns in the order those people post in.
E.g:
-3 enemies turn
-Sorogar, mosely and ohime
-2 enemies
-Krokkin and brek.
When the 3 enemies had their turn, Sorogar Mosely and Ohime take their turns in order of who posts first so that people don't have to wait out the exact initiative to play out.

Glad to hear that there is improvement. It is very hard to have a loved one going thru health issues. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I just realized that I missed the +2 on attack and damage on that last attack that crit'ed. To be fair I only got a couple hour nap Thursday night do to a work upgrade that went sideways. Oh well not that I needed it.

Might have to do this. Let me think about it and if decide to then I will reorganzie the initiative at top of page. It sounds like it might help with flow.

And that would have been doubled.
| Brek of Unknown House |
I gotten used to Initiative order being posted along with each GM post. I'll keep in mind that you do that order differently
| Krokkin |
I typed up my response about 4 hours ago and then was doing something else and just realized I had not actually posted it. Sorry.
| Krokkin |
I saved this link in my browser as a bookmark so I do not have to go looking for it

Dangit I just realized that I did the wrong damage for the AOO. I had it as a 1d3 instead of a 1d6. oh well.
| Brek of Unknown House |
If I ever get 1st in init, I will delay till I'm last or something. lol
Else poor GM has to keep botting me.
| Brek of Unknown House |
Rest well then. We'll see your post tomorrow when you feel much better.
| Krokkin |
Just as an aside. I picked up the early access to baldur's gate III. It is actually really fun and is the closet thing I have seen to a melding of video game and DND. It runs a combo of real time and turn based mechanic and allows you to make decisions based on your skills and has you roll in game against opposed checks to see if they work or not. I am having fun with it.
| Sorogar Twintusk |
I've been intending on playing the BG3 Beta for some time. Currently playing the pathfinder: wrath of the righteous alpha, which is also pretty nice. And Divinity: Original sin 1 and 2 from the makers of BG3 are both great games if you haven't played those yet :)
| Brek of Unknown House |
I'm waiting for both Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous and BG3 to be fully out.
| Ohimè S’adel |
Brek, I know you were wanting that wand of fireball, but would you mind if I snagged it for the ability to assist you on damage dealing? Then you or Sorogar can take the wand of silence for assistance on control? I'd love to hear your thoughts!
Anyone else want the dagger +1?
| Brek of Unknown House |
I have no objections.
I actually favor control spells such as slow and haste tbh...
though throwing out AoEs of massive destruction is the way to go for this build due to the bloodline.
| Krokkin |
I don't need any of the stuff. It does not seem to be anything that my character would jump at.
| Sorogar Twintusk |
I can take the wand of silence, sure.
Quick tally for my wands: Wand of cure critical 14 charges, wand of bull's strength 25, bear's endurance 20, wand of silence (49??) charges.
Someone else had the cure serious wounds wand, right?
| Brek of Unknown House |
Brek will attempt to pack extra rations since Brek isn't particularly skilled in finding food for himself.
| Sorogar Twintusk |
Great post @Krokkin. Movah and Krokkin silently watching eachother and baring fangs is pretty much exactly how I'd expect this exchange to go, too, haha.
| Krokkin |
Thanks. With your last post and the ambiguity of where the story is for the moment I thought it would be fun to write a little bit of story and interaction. Your post was well written and open enough for me to run with. Glad that you like it.
| Herkymr the Silly |
I liked the play that has just happened with all toons. THis is why in part I like this group.
Just a side note, I will be home more for the next 2 weeks as my wife has tested positive for covid. I can't return back to work until ten days after symptoms in me if I test positive or 14 days after symptoms from her. My work also requires me to have 2 negative tests one nasal and one spit before I can return.
Yeah that means 4 kids a sick wife and a smallish house for 2 weeks. I'm gonna need an outlet.
| Ohimè S’adel |
I'm home, so I can post.
| Sorogar Twintusk |
I'm still travelling back and forth to the hospital a lot. I can generally post but longer posts will be a bit more difficult unless it's late at night when the rest of the family is asleep.
| Herkymr the Silly |
The traveling sucks but the reason behind it is what matters. How is the little one doing?
When I made my "woe is me post" I wasn't intending nor expecting for anyone else to post more than the once a day agreed upon. I still hold to that. If you want that would be kind and appreciated when I am feeling well enough to keep up I would love it. BUT IT IS NOT EXPECTED. I will not be botting people unless we get in a combat situation and they are not posting 1x day.
Just wanted to put that out there so everyone understands what I actually was intending by my post.
| Brek of Unknown House |
ahh sorry to hear that.
Hope your test for covid is negative. I know how much it can be a burden on people now.
P.S: my temp job has me checking on covid positive people to see if they stick to their SHN (Stay Home Notice).
| Brek of Unknown House |
I have a serious workload currently.
No one took note that 4 staff took leave at the same time. Right now it's just me single manning a 5 man staion. Will be slow in posting.
Apologies.
| Sorogar Twintusk |
@Hark thanks, the little one is doing well, he had his major correctional surgery recently. He is now technically completely healthy, just recovering from surgery.
