DM-Camris' SKULL & SHACKLES Chapter 1: SOULS for the SMUGGLERS'S SHIV

Game Master Camris

How about doing the math instead?

555/7 = 79.28 with 4 copper remaining.

Everybody gets the EQUIVALENT of 79 gold, 2 silver, and 8 copper, while the common share gets the equivalent of 79 gold, 3 silver, and 2 copper

Math really IS your friend!

72 G 65 S 78 C - 215 coins
72 G 65 S 78 C
72 G 65 S 78 C
71 G 76 S 68 C - 215 coins
71 G 76 S 68 C
71 G 76 S 68 C
71 G 77 S 62 C - 210 coins - Group share.

Why dice off when it can be split equitably?

- And somebody will have to carry Sunny's share, as well as the group share.

I can be carryin' stuffs!

Uhm... is jus' gon'a take a tad fer gettin' tha' stuff t'gether fer tha' carryin', is all... (>_>)

Okay.

Good news is I am back onto the forums.

Bad news is home computer has given me a 'Blue screen of death'.

Which is a right bugger.

Tech is coming out soon as possible. Yay for holiday week ends.

Will be looking in as often as I can.

Hop every one is swell

How about doing the math instead? ...

Ummm... yeah, that works! :)

And somebody will have to carry Sunny's share, as well as the group share.

I can be carryin' stuffs!

I... I don't think I want to know where...

:D

I'll try to catch up tomorrow.

I in't stoopid.

I can be makin' ropes an' weavin' baskets an' all sorts a handy stuffs.

Is just we's got these new people who seem all nibbly like instead of all huggy like ta' be dealin' wiff first.

If anyone would like a masterwork cutlass by the way, Reijo has a spare he's not using. It's yours if you want it, just let me know.

Reijo wouldn't simply give something of value away. He's hoping to hock it when he gets a chance. But we can just say in story your character pays him for it. Also, it's not necessary but I'd be happy to roleplay haggling over it if you'd like. :)

...cutting through the vegetation with his machete if they must journey through jungle...

"If" is the operative word in my last post, LOL...

Rather than wait for Camris to clarify the path ahead (Jungle? Beach? Island hop across the water...), I preemptively posted that conditional action. Our group had earlier actually managed to navigate around the island along the beach for a good amount of time; we might need or want to do the same now.

Or at least for now. We can probably move more quickly by beach, perhaps increasing the odds of catching up with those who walked off with our two missing companions before they get eaten. We can seek the cover of jungle later for better concealment, when we think we're getting closer to the lighthouse.

Of course, if we do need to go through jungle and there is already a trail to follow, then there could certainly be no need to cut any vegetation, too. But if there is no easy path through dense jungle and that's where we need to go, I'm not sure how else we're going to get through that.

Sorry.

I read all the hacking and slashing and totally missed that little 'If' in there.

No worries! I know I miss things too (especially when I post late at night).

I just wanted to explain that before it potentially snowballs further.

Hopefully we do need to traverse the jungle, as I can think of a funny retort. But I'm waiting for Camris to confirm the terrain ahead first. Before our characters start arguing about how to deal with vegetation, only to have Camris step in and say "You're walking along the beach..." And apparently hallucinating about walking through a jungle... :D

My condolences as well.

Hey everyone. Apologies for the long absence, work and other things have kept me quite preoccupied. I'll catch up and post within the next day or so for sure.

Have you ever seen the rain?

(^_^)

On a family trip to vegas. Will be haphazard on responses

Remember, what happens in Vegas. Stays in Vegas...

(^_^)

Hope you have a great time.

Well, as i stated, family trip. So we are here for MIL and Son. Been here before

Well, I have returned from my vegas trip.
Give me a day to get settled and caught up please

Much cheeriness to everyone. (^_^)

I look out to see rain. . . :(

I've seen rain

Be well every one

Oh noes. . . attack of the killer tomatoes.

Not sure if the red was the ketchup, or blood.

Sorry for asking the questions possibly in the wrong thread.

Uhm, are there 'Counters' for us? Not sure where to start on that 'North'/'Right-side' wall.

Much cheers to all.

No counters are on the map yet; I figure you guys would get a glimpse over the wall furtively then go back and tell the rest. Maybe sketch out a crude map in the dirt, then you pick a way you want to get in and tell me.

20 new messages... wow, apologies for the delay.

FYI I'm on vacation til Sunday the 16th, though I should be able to get back here tomorrow morning to catch up and post.

On vacation to Alaska for a couple weeks.

On vacation to Alaska for a couple weeks.

Enjoy! Don't get eaten by a bear! (Or a cannibal, for that matter.)

Be well.

Have lots of fun!

Just remember to avoid the three black spots in a snowstorm. :)

AKA the bears eyes and nose. :)

But honestly have fun, and hope you don't get eaten by the horse flies this year.

Enjoy Camris!

And sorry for the absence, everyone. I've been way too busy. Things should clear up a bit after Saturday the 12th though.

What's the plan?

I thought M'self an' Reijo an' maybe Shaedeen slip over the wall. Take the gate person by surprise. Open the gate and let Des and Dreamer in. While that's happening, some one is checkin' tha' lizard and maybe lettin' it loose ta' nibble on tha' Native peoples? Yes? No?

Reijo walked up to the gate and knocked twice. He did not climb. Seeing Shaedeen successfully climb the wall (Sunny didn't roll so hot, LOL), Reijo decided to knock just as he's seen the savages do when returning. He is expecting the sleepy guard to open the gate, and is readying an attack on the cannibal.

When the sleepy guard (presumably) opens the gate expecting to see fellow cannibals, I imagine he'll be surprised to see someone with clothes, a non-broken cutlass, and not sharp pointy teeth staring back at him with a maniacal grin. Reijo's hoping his cutlass meets the cannibal's face before the surprise wears off (hopefully!).

He's also hoping Shaedeen and (if she made it) Sunny can also sneakily move in to flank the sleepy guard with him, perhaps as the gate starts opening.

The lizard seems about 20 ft. away from the guard and is chained, so I'm not expecting it to be trouble - unless the guard is alerted to danger and unchains the lizard to sic it on us.

We can decide about the lizard later, but I'm thinking the guard probably has a key to its chain. We take the key, and feed the guard's body to it to help keep it quiet. Not sure if letting it free will be better or worse for us (i.e. it might try to eat us anyway, LOL).

Sorry I have not been on. RL mugged me.

No worries, that keeps happening to me too. :)

I work a 4 and 4 schedule with 12 hour days.

My most active posting time is during my work week, So If I don't really respond for a couple of days, its due to me not wanting to type things out on my phone.

I hope our DM didn't get eaten by a polar bear. :)

Man, I told Camris he's really got to stop taunting them...

Wondering if our GM has returned ??

Camris does go away for a month or even two months at a time sometimes. Unlike most GMs who do that though, he usually returns. We've been playing together for years, so hang tight everyone. :)

Thank you for the info. I was beginning to worry that this was going to die.

pulls out a few knives and starts to juggle.

this could be a way, that I earn the nickname stubby, or one eye.

:)

Apparently, Bellamy didn't learn his lesson until after his second juggling accident. :D

Sure. I'm sure he'll be back. Any day now...

Has anyone had contact with the GM ???
