As long as the moon is out or the stars are shining, you should be fine. To a person with Low-light, it would be like daylight essentially. Your only problem will be if there is pure darkness or thick, thick cloud cover. If it comes to that, we can always start the fire up again or use spells. Or you can use your survival skill, I'm sure, to make a few torches from nature.
Uhhh... don't have low-light either. Halflings are just small humans in this regard.
I can sleep in armor, though.
I could light myself up like a torch.
Just need that amount of rest.
lol, it's been so long since I've played a halfling, I thought they had low-light!
I suppose i'd be ok with taking the first watch still if no one feels inclined. I have darkvision and decently good perception.
Brek said he'd like first watch. I'm okay with any watch really.

Lets say then that watches go in this order
brek sorogar ohime and krokkin. Mosely can get up early as the dawn comes up and help with watch while cooking. That is kinda what I am sensing from the party.
Sounds good to me.
Yeah, that works for me too.
That fits.
Agreed
@sorogar -- I love the post!!! thanks for the role play of getting the new spirit. I have just gotten the shaman class availability in Herolab so I can look at it closer. SO far I like it. Thanks for the roleplay it hwlps
Ohime made her DC for foraging for alchemical supplies earlier in the day. Did she earn some raw ingredients? I was thinking of making some candlerods and maybe some alchemical grease in the evening at camp. Or if there were poisons and such, please let me know.

you found the stuff to make the grease and rods. There were a few plants that maybe poisonous but you will have to take a chance at distilling them.
@Hark Sure, glad you liked it. I thought getting a second spirit should be adressed in some roleplaying manner, and given that they're 'pacts' I assume every spirit wants something in return for helping, even though it's not described in the class feature.
Since you only get one familiar, your first spirit, I am assuming the secondary spirits you get from the level 4 class feature are actual spirits without relevant stats, but who may hang around for roleplyaing reasons. Since they grant you powers to use, I guess at least part of them stays with you for the day?
Oh, right, I should probably roll for the alchemy foragaing too. Sorogar would have checked for herbs while travelling forward. If the survival assists the alchemy on a dc 13 foraging check, I can't fail the assist.
All right, so... what does that find me?
If I wanted to make, say, a barkskin potion, how many and which herbs do I need? Normally, you'd pay half the potion cost in gold for the relevant herbs to make it and then spend 2 hours crafting the potion with a craft: alchemy check.
you will need two more ingredients you weren't able to find and then the magic part still will need to be added. You also find several things that could be boiled down to make poultices.

Hey guys,
I apologize for not keeping with the current frequency of posting. I started on it last night which was the perception check. I then totally got distracted. I hope that I am not slowing up the story too much but please let me know if I am dragging the play down.

No worries. I haven't really noticed it. I had to post my guard shift one before having a conversation I was planning to have with you IC but that was only because of the guard schedule with me being second.

Slowing us down? No, but I definitely want my character to get to know yours and to watch a friendship potentially flourish!
Thanks. Ohime, I also want our characters to get closer and become family. As you have scene and Sorogar has eluded to my character young and impetuous with a guardian complex. It will be fun to discover how he opens up to each of the characters as the game progresses. This is a fun and challenging new character concept for me to write.
Normally I am trying to figure out how to make Herk stop and say "ok, that just happened, I didn't see that coming."
It is a thing I have done with him for years in D&D, and we have both enjoyed tripping each other up as DM and player. This time I am working more in the development of the character and really trying to play within a specific type.
I hope that I will be able to do this without going overboard. I am mixing elements of feline behavior, raging male teenage hormones, thought processes of invincibility, and needing to prove to everyone that he is the best no mater who they are, and then to top it off an internal confidence problem. This is part of the reason I took the vain trait. It seems to work well with idea that I am creating.
Like I said I think this will be really fun to work thru and see the how he overcomes his issues and bonds with the group. Having Warren leave actually plays well into his issues, even though I am sad to see him go.
I don't mind emotional feline characters at all! I hope you posting IC continues to happen and he involves himself with the newcomers too (to a point).
I'm looking forward to how Brek runs afoul of the Feline Aggression!
Hey all. I was compiling more stuff for the fame and went into profiles to get background information. Some i saw some I didn't. If you would all do me a favor and put your rivals and connections and story in your profile that would help me a lot. ANd speed me up on so much.
thanks.

done
Anyone know if mosely is having a rough few days still or has ghosted? I haven't seen him since saturday post.
Not sure about Mosely, He could be having a rough time.
I have updated Brek with;
back story somewhat.
NPC of note (Just one Zealot)
General Appearance.
I don't have anything to add. Just waiting to hear what the deal is with the caves - are we going into one? Do we think we can use them to get the caravan through?
There's literally nothing for me to contribute as I don't have spells or powers to scout them remotely like some of the other PCs do.

We gave up the cave scouting idea to try and cross the chasm somewhere else. We walked south a bit, found a downward slope and found a river that might be crossable with boats or by building a bridge. When we set up camp there for the night, a strange and as yet unseen musician-type creature starting mentally talking to everyone in the party. You have any idea what it could be or what we should say?
Mosley, make sure you are reading our posts, as it can help illuminate what is going on. If you are confused on an aspect, I'm sure we'd all rather you ask it here rather than just be more silent than vocal. Afterall, we want to see your character flourish with our own.
As for what you can contribute: unlike in a tabletop game where you can be silent if you don't have anything to add, pbp is more about descriptives and showing us the hidden qualities of your character. Not to mention pushing the story forward. Look at Krokkin. He has not said anything for many posts, yet he's been posting. Ohime is very shy and has said little, but I've been posting with her. You can glean information, reactions, personality from even the most quiet and small characters. You can contribute a ton.
Just remember, none of us are particularly skilled at facing every challenge ahead of us. You have to think outside of the box as well. You have a great perception check. You can scout out a cave and return to us without anyone seeing you. You actually could pass a climb check. Regardless, we are now in the jungle walking to the south pass. We are at a crossroads it seems, and now are facing a woodland sprite. What can you do with it? Make grumpy faces for being alerted? Protect Krokkin? Make sure Ohime and Sorogar are not vulnerable in this instance? There are just so many things you can react to that don't have to be direct "actions".
He... ah, probably knows this. He has 27000+ posts between his aliasses. I'm just assuming he's been a bit busy lately.
lol.... I enjoy you all.
I'm currently trying to page through all the old discussion pages to find where I listed Mosely's backstory stuff so that I can migrate it into my alias sheet.

thanks I took a quick look but couldn't find some of the info on the toons in game and so I asked. I know with my toons that I keep files on them for stats and background so I figured if any one else did it might be easier for me to get the info.
THanks mosely and others
Sheet should be updated in background.

I suppose so. I didn't look at the account. I was just trying to be helpful and offer some suggestions based on what he had said. :)
It's no problem. Mosely will interact when his skills permit him to do so. When someone else is face-foward to a current problem, I tend to let other players handle that, instead of butting in to their moment to shine. It's a delicate tightrope, interacting with other PCs but not stealing or interrupting their spotlight.
We have a good team of players an characters I appreciate it. Makes my job easier. ANd thus more fun.

It maybe easier for you to search via Posts made with the character. It'll list only the posts made with Mosely unless you posted his backstory under another alias.
My PC's wireless internet adapter just died and because of the pandemic no stores in my area are open late enough to get one. I'm having to use my tablet with cellular wi-fi or a janky old laptop. This is crimping my ability to participate.
@Brek I already finished, I just went back to the start of the Discussion posts because it was fairly early on.
Dang that was a great discussion. I loved it. I am either able to post really early in the morning like 7 am or after 9 pm local time. I love seeing the conversations that comments that are going here. I am just getting ready to see how you all reacted to the last posts from last night.
Ah I had the same problem with my wireless adaptor on my laptop but I had an ethernet cable so I directly plugged in till I could reinstall the drivers.
Not a solution for me, as my cable modem is in a different room and I'd have to run a hundred feet of cat5 cable across the apartment, which my spouse won't allow (and i have no good way to run it across the ceiling, through the hall and down into the other room). I just have to wait for stores to open tomorrow and get a new adapter.
Yes, I tested the adapter in other systems and tested other devices in the port. It's the adapter.
Ok. Ouch that's not a solution for you.
I only needed 7ft of cable to reach my router....
Oh haha, I didn't even notice that you ninja'd me Krokkin. I wasn't purposefully ignoring your post! :) I had to post and jet back to my business (busy day...and middle of the night as you can see).
Brek...I am digging the way you describe magic.
and
ohimes music rocks.
I would pay to see Ohime in her black robe rock out on a flute to Metallica.
I got to work a Metallica concert. Got to meet the band and go backstage with the platinum "hall of rock" pass and everything for free. It was fun. Great guys. I even have video of front stage when the lines died down. We were able to be right up next to it in the crowd.
Brek is a little on theanimal sides as he calls upon his magic.
I read through abit of the backstory and story so far. Had feel of an animal theme party so Brek being a phoenix scion will be calling upon animals to aid his magic.
Feel free to read the last post spoiler I did called Dream State.
I am sure that there will be a point soon where I may have conversations with other characters and tell them parts of the story. Rather than telling the story many times I most likely just link back to the post.
Enjoy and let me know what you think in discussion.
I am exhausted tonight from a very emotionally heavy day at work and another one on the horizon. I will post tomorrow evening most likely if not and I wake tonight I may be with it enough to post just not right now. Thanks fr understanding.
Rest well, Herk.
