Spouse returning to work this week. Only a couple months to go until they're functioning normally again.
Oh sorry Melira I had somehow missed the message about your spouse. I saw Bez's joke about spouses but I didn't get it because I missed the message he was responding to. :)

Make sure they take the time they need, Melira. I took extra time off after returning to work too early. :(
Also, Bez is a straight up coward--I mean, master tactician of retreat.

One of the most shocking things for me after returning to US from India is how folks here don't understand the need for rest. It is gruesomely shocking to see what the american worker does to herself and the depths of self-harm we will permit and encourage our loved ones to participate in all in the interest of competition and consumption.
This one has some feathers and bird beaks on it as well. Could be redecorated though if you don’t like the look.
I like that so we will take it, even if just as a memento from a fallen foe.
Don't think Akkramar will have much use for it though - he is more of a hammer and shield kinda guy, staying alive and all that.
Ok cool. Akkramar takes the gnoll glaive.

I was just thinking, if you guys describe what you want to do or attempt in plain english , I can always convert that into the appropriate roll when I need to and just roll it myself. That's what I do at home with the kids, well, I ask them to roll it but here on the forums I guess I could just roll it for you if you give me easy access to your stats right in the spoilers under your names.
But you can also toss out a couple rolls that you might think appropriate so I can go off those.
Hey Grimmy, Faidh is gonna try to negotiate for places to bed down and the ability to fish. After that just general commerce for those that can.
oh and acquiring water and whatnot.Hope to try and well, get more if I can, considering Piazos dice hate me
Cool sounds good. You just need to roll that persuasion check . I can roll it for you if you want but you gotta put your stats in the spoiler .
Folks I have non-stop gigs the next few days. Will be back end of the week.
Sounds fun Grimmy
Akkramar and Faidh do you have any business in Cats Wife before traveling on to Endhome?
It is fun but I’m getting too old for it.

Faidh will probably just perform and aid who she can.
Ok thanks for patience. Let me fire up the ol PDF's and see where we are at .
So Bez and Mel are you planning to leave the mansion grounds?
That was not a bad haul for what you encountered so far I’d say. Do you wrote down the treasure somewhere?

I know I have been sparse, I am getting just annihilated schedule wise, getting through each day as it comes. Not for lack of interest. Enjoyed reading the last posts.
We should make a loot sheet. Who wants to do that? I can...
DMG, no worries. It happens to all of us!
I'll pass on quarter mastering the loot sheet if you please - done it enough in other games :)
One thing i know, Akkramar did take the glaive. But I always wondered one thing, why don't folks just record their gear on the character sheet like in tabletop?
No problem with spreadsheets just curious.
I just know It's harder for me to do that when I'm on my phone.
Because we'll have some assortment of undivided loot that will be carried on a cart, or sold once we reach a town, is my reasoning.
Fair enough!
I feel Faidh will adopt these children and set up something for them at Endhome. At least that is the idea in her head.
I mean she has no family as an exile and these kids need someone and that could be her. A big momma bear so to speak.
Yes on planning to leave. A loot sheet also seems quicker and easier than utilizing the amazing and wonderful paizo interface.
Haha ok I see . Yes, editing the profile page can be difficult .
Just a heads up folks - had a couple of rush offshore jobs land of my lap this morning, so might be mid-week before I'm clear enough to contribute. Please bot me as/when/if necessary.
Congrats/Condolences!
No worries I am buried alive with work too!
I am thinking Bez n Melira are clear to escape the mansion with the loot they got . I will cu scene to back in town.
Ditto for Ak n Faidh. Cut to Endhome. I can’t see the post but I rolled no encounters on the road.
kewl! Heck, we can cut scene to "closer to Vex" if you wanna.
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
Sure good idea. I will just have to roll to see about encounters on the road but you can try to avoid any rolled if possible.
I'm fine with that. Apparently, I have refugees and have the inkling to support these kids that I have warmed up too
Apologies for the lack of posting - I started with the symptoms on Wednesday, and have been fighting off Covid for the past few days. I will try to post as soon as I am feeling better, since I am not doing much more beyond lying in bed resting…
Hey I am fine with slow. Ever since spending serious time in India I feel everyone around me is always moving too fast!
Please take good rest. When I had covid i could not think clearly enough to post and this went on for weeks. Of course everyone is different.

Hey folks, little adventure came up. The place I was staying had some really heavy drinking going on, and I didn't like it, especially with kids in the house. I couldnt get it resolved so I had to strike out on foot. I walked 16 miles, took a bus, slept in a homeless shelter, and hitchiked 30 miles more! All while managing to show up and complete all the work gigs I had committed to! I am back home now with my dog resting up. Sorry for lack of communication it was a bit harrowing with temps below 30 fahrenheit and needing to manage to appear professional at multiple venues in different cities while living out of one duffelk bag :D
Anyway I did it! Safe now, be posting soon. Best

Whoa! I guess you ruled well on Diplomacy and Survival!
I lost my laptop charger in that whole fiasco. I should be able to redownload the pdf’s onto my tablet for free if I can figure out where I bought them and what my passwords are. I’ll have a go at it here.
Sounds like a harrowing time. Glad you made it through ok.
Yikes!
Take your time. I usually save my PDFs to Google Drive so I can download them from whenever (they stay on the cloud). Good luck searching email!
It was harrowing because I have bipolar and the work I do is not conducive to mental health anyway. Normally I don’t socialize with other stage hands much but when the whole industry was shut down I gave up my car and I’ve been reluctant to get one since things started up. Carpooling and staying with these roving lunatics put a strain on me . I draw the line at partying with kids in the house so I just struck out on foot . You might say my judgement was impaired by an episode caused by lack of rest but I was careful and pragmatic . I dealt with police a couple times as I trekked along and told them the whole story transparently. I stayed one night outside and two nights in a homeless shelter. I missed work zero times. The shelter was clean and quiet and most of the folks there were trying to improve themselves. There was a lady with a library card bringing books about recovery and healthy boundaries and codependency. Honestly it was a better environment than the homes of my coworkers.
I’m safe at home now with my dog and taking my yoga classes on zoom.
Glad to see posts. Little annoying being on mobile only but I’m here. Might look for a spare MacBook charger .
Grimmy, glad to hear all is well. Whew! Did you have people to call for backup?
Just a heads up gang I'm positively slammed at work - had a couple of additional jobs land of my lap today in an already busy week and need to do my team's performance review by Friday... also have our works Xmas do on Friday (at the 3rd tilt - covid allowing).
Posting might be pretty spotty until the weekend so please bot Vex as necessary.
Just taking it slow letting myself even out. Saw my psychiatrist today. Everything’s ok , just gotta take it easy and rest up.
Still didn’t get the laptop goin . I’m here tho.
Was a little short on backup mister Bez. I’ve grown apart from American life somewhat . No complaints tho. I really like my trips to India .

BD you are a hard worker. Your industry sounds interesting. I do some damn hard work myself .
Let me know if you want me to look for resources in your area. In another life I have various connections to street activists, mutual aid peeps, those sorts of radicals.
I'm just Night custodial at my local High School. Until the summer though then we switch to days until school starts back up
That’s awesome Critz. I would do something like that in a heartbeat.

Thanks. Sounds like an amazing life . I am still here. I’m gonna get a $50 netbook at wallmart and redownload my pdf’s. It is just a pain on the phone. I want the netbook anyway my MacBook was from 2013 and all the webpages load with sketchy security warnings now
