The Great Hunt (Inactive)

Game Master DEWN MOU'TAIN

I'd rather stay with the current timeline; it is something different, and allows us to operate in the world of WoT, without yet being overwhelmed by the events of the books.

Regarding Janus, unless the player re-emerge, I was imagining he'll be writen out, maybe escorting Naja to the tower.

if janus was going to show up again, i would think he'd have done so by now.

so yeah, we can have him not be bonded to you. have him escort naja north to the tower. perhaps he receives training to be a warder.

so, for those of you who wish to make new characters, i will give you a week to do so.

Awesome. Thanks I am trying to acclimate myself with playing a Domani. I've only ever played Borderlanders,Aiel or a Sea Folk.

Based on the votes, it looks like the timeline will change to around book six?

This is Critzibles new Character

to reply to morel's statement, yes, we will be advancing the storyline start to roughly the beginning of book 6. i need to do a little research and figure out when in the book it'll land, but it should be fine.

i like Lazar.
I like that you incorporated cooking as a skill, and put it into your backstory. This is nice. very nice.

Right he is gonna make the group use Sursas!

Right he is gonna make the group use Sursas!

that's good lol

morel should be finishing his character in the next couple days or so.

Here is Morel. I think he's done, except for swordforms. Did you have a ruling on how many we are allowed to know?

Hey everyone. I have to apologize. I wont be able to get to this until tuesday next week. My friends Mom just died and im going to his place to help him out with stuff.

Sorry to hear that. Take as long as you need.

I am sorry to hear that. I hope your friend is ok. Take your time.

Here is Morel. I think he's done, except for swordforms. Did you have a ruling on how many we are allowed to know?

you can make a swordsform roll for each rank you have access to. so your level 5 with 5 ranks in sword forms, so your eligible to learn all of level 3 and level 4 of the forms.

Ooo swordforms. If only those worked with other weapons

Swordforms, lvl3, DC 18: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (8) + 9 = 17

Swordforms, lvl4, DC 19: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (7) + 9 = 16

Haha, well at least there's 1 & 2.

sorry jak. i mistyped. you can roll individually for each swordform, not for the entire block of swordforms.

also: the date of when the story will be starting, so that everyone can align their stories.

Lord of Chaos, chapter 42. in game time, its Danu 4, (Nov 27th our date) 999 NE. five weeks to the battle of Dumai Wells.

we will jump the group ahead to having traveled out of the Ways and is currently overlooking or just entering Far Madding, looking for "Jair's publisher". You successfully traveled the Ways from Illian to Far Madding. so everyone should be together. For the two new travelers, we can say that you were in the tavern when the group was talking and offered to join up as well because of the Hunt for the horn has, from their perspective, soured.

Sounds good, rolls below.

hey guys, i need to put a pause on this. My buddy is having a really really hard time with the passing of his mom. So i will be spending a few days with him helping him figure out finances and estate maintenance.

Not a problem. Take all the time you guys need.

Take your time and we will be here when you get back.

I wantes to thank everyone for their patience with me. My friend was a hot mess. Wasnt eating, showering...just damn near giving up. Luckily his mom had the foresight to arrange her funeral ceremony 2 months back when she was diagnosed with cancer. She was told shed be around for two years, but beginning of last month she fell down and cracked her hip. After that it went fast.
My friend has been dealing with these savage extremes of depression and guilt ridden joy. He lost his mom, but as he put it "in one night i went from a bachelor who barely had $300 in my checking, living with 3 guys, to now having $150k in cash and a house valued over $300k". And to top this off, he's scared sh*tless he's gonna be stupid with the money. So ive been helping him out with home ownership and grieving his moms passing. He's getting his three meals a day now, showering, and, imo, has turned the hump.

That would be some hard times. And all to many people blow that money in poor decisions. Hopefully, it works out for him.

And it was good that he had someone to help him who he could trust.

@DM can you please make this game inactive for me please and thank you.

Wishing you and yours the best.

can do dorian.

for everyone else, it looks like we left off with everyone pretty much rolled up. i see jak had rolled his sword forms, but beyond that im not seeing anything.

so, we all good to go? anyone else suddenly see something they need to change?

Unless I can level myself up to have my first official level of Aes Sedai, I won't be changing anything, so I'm ready to go.

Ready to go when you are

I am keeping Ceirn as is.

I should be ready as well, other than copy pasting descriptions of the sword forms alongside their names so I have them at hand.

Also, don't forget to give me 2d6 madness if you haven't already.

So I know what Jak should know at this point, I would assume Ceirn's channeling abilities are still unknown to everyone....

Is Niketsu still keeping her affiliation with the Tower secret?

Does Tenora openly travel as Aes Sedai?

So I have what Jak should know at this point straight, I am assuming Ceirn's channeling is still a secret to everyone.

Is Niketsu still keeping her affiliation with the Tower secret, in particular for the two new characters?

Does Tenora travel openly as Aes Sedai?

Is it our group stepping out of the waygate to head north to Far Madding?

That is true. Lazar doesn't worry about Aei Sedai

F&** f+@@ f%$@ f!#!....
My dad died yesterday...

Damn Rizzen your luck seems as horrible as mine of late.

Sorry about your dad. Take it easy and remember to properly mourn. I have been in your shoes. It's not easy, but it doesn't have to be torturous

Wow I am so sorry to hear that. Take care!

Dang. So sorry Rizz.

So sorry to hear this Rizzen. Take care of yourself and your family.

i wanted to give everyone an update today.

it's weird. i keep looking at this game, this one and the alternate WOT game i set up. A part of me wants to start this back up, but...idk. it's like i cant concentrate enough on this enough to properly give it it's due. My dad's death really took the wind out my sails from my creativity side. I sit here, i look at the pages, i look at my notes, and i just draw a blank. i just cannot generate enough of anything to get the spark rolling. My other game, my ROTR game, that i can do cuz it's a pregen, and i dont have to think much. So im starting that up. But for this game, and for the other game, i just...it's just a blank. I know where you are. i know where you gotta go. I just got nothing.

So i dont know what this means for the short term. I know, eventually, i will get my creativity juices flowing again. I just dont know how long it'll take for me to get back to first post creativity.

I dont want you guys sitting there twiddling your thumbs waiting for a game that may take 1-3 months to get back rolling again. i really dislike that idea, for i feel it would be an insult to you all for wasting your time without knowing what's happening on my end.

sooo yeah...that's where im at at the moment.

I can relate, and you'll get no judgement from me. Take care of yourself. If you ever feel like the juices are back, let us know. I for one will still be around.

Take your time. I am around when your feeling better. Sometimes life just happens and you need time to recharge.

Grieving is a process. DO what you need to do. We will be on the boards here so if you have another of these you want to do, or try feel free to message us okay Rizzen.

Until we meet again.

What the others have said. There is absolutely no rush or pressure on our end. Take your time, take care of yourself, and do what you need to do. We'll still be here if/when you feel like picking it, or even something else, up again. And in the meanwhile, thoughts and prayers are with you.

so...who wants to play a game?

I would love too

What's up?

Hey hey

we got lazhar, niketsu, and Jak.

that's three.

pondering an idea...

i got 3 responses from this thread, and three from the other.

thinking im gonna combine into one group of 6.

Any details on the idea, or you just going to tease us?
