What a wordy post!

No one has specifically said they were going up the stairs yet. Just want to make sure everyone is before starting the next bit.

I have a mental image of him preventing the goblin from running face first into danger. Not sure how true that is, though.

That would be somewhat right. The azarketi compassion mixed with the curse of an alien battle lust.

Sorry, y'all. I missed the "we're moving to here" post. I'm back on board now!

I don't think we know if we're supposed to open Alaric's spoiler or not based on his warning.

I told Alaric what he could tell you in that spoiler, if he chooses to share it he can. He hasn't thus far.

I think Alaric was trying to be succinct, not obtuse, or was showing-by-doing.

If I've counted correctly, we need one more success this round else things begin getting increasingly difficult.

Well, he posted so we know what’s what now.

Also you guys prevented damage to two of the assistants so the increase in difficulty might not happen, depends on how much damage is generated this round.

Alaric, Jaxon, Samna, I need your fort saves from last round, unless I missed them somewhere.

Only people who make checks to stop the ritual take the blast damage.

Huh, never noticed that. Last few times I’ve played in it it has been everyone in the room. When I read through it earlier I missed the ‘skill checks’ line and I though anyone who attempts to stop the hazard gets zapped. . . That includes people fighting shadows as defeating shadows->stopping the ritual.

Well, now I know for next time.

So what's the plan? We have some people wanting to rest a day, some people wanting to go to the haunted house right now. . . . Just want to get the ball moving on this again. How about we take a vote.

If people want to rest a day to recover spells/daily uses

or

If people want to go to the hounted house right away.

I'm pretty sure Ogren was planning on LoH healing us before the Haunted House either way, but I'm good on spells as long as we're all good on HP.

Yeah, as long as we're healed up, let's hit the haunted house.

Ogren's okay with either. He can keep going but resting does not hurt him either.

Jaxon is fine to go now, but I think we need to hear from our spellcasters.

Alaric will expend all that healing if we are resting for the evening.

Seems Alaric has decided to rest for the night as he posted in Main, which is fine. Just needed to get the ball rolling again.

Going to be a busy week for me. I may not get the chance to post everyday. Please bot Jaxon if needed. I will be back to normal by Friday.

You can each attempt 1 check (total, not one per person).

Those are contradictory clauses: you can each attempt 1 check vs. 1 check total.

EDIT: Did you mean each PC may make 1 check total, not one per NPC?

Yes, sorry, EACH PC can make 1 check. Not one check per agitator.

I could have sworn I wrote that Jaxon killed it with his sneak attack!

Reading back, you did. The line appears in a place that hides things from me: directly under the profile picture. For some reason, if there's a short, isolated bit of text right under the profile picture, I don't see it. :)

What's the plan?

The hands are still visibly in the main hall. They look like they'd be ready to jump anyone who steps out again. You think a religion check could put them to rest for about a day.

Didn't we do that?

With his nat 20, Isurus not only quites the spirits, but he knows the trigger was trodding upon the same ground twice in a 24 hr period, and that while he has put them to rest for right now, they will return within 24 hours unless someone finds what is causing the haunts to rise and putting right what once went wrong.

Exorcisim post

Oh, got it, sorry, thought that was the check to identify. Yeah, sure, the hands die down.

What's next?

I'll defer to someone else since we're all equally terrible at Religion. I'll roll if nobody else does before the end of my day today.

So do we wanna try to find another player before we start the next game? Just asking if that is something we are thinking about doing.

Adding another player is fine with me.

I think I'm up next? What am I running again?

Looks like you had Second Confirmation

It appears there is someone on the waitlist we could probably pull in.

Right. I'll get it set up this weekend.
