I have excellent wifi, I'm just spending Christmas around my nieces and nephews, none of whom is older than 5. It hasn't left a lot of time for other things but I will get us moving again tomorrow.
Hi all, I'm sory for disaprearing like that - my sister in law's baby arived 3 weeks early which really put the cat among teh pigeons! She gets back from hospital tomorrow (we hope!) so I will need to sleep and then be able to do fun stuff again. Please bear with me, I will be back :)
Congrats to your brother and sister in law! Take the time you need and I will bot Lucia as required.
Alorea - that's a good roll, but this is unfortunately a fight (or the prelude thereto) and Diplomacy will not avail you. Still, it's a good roll so I'll let you use that as your initiative for when combat starts, which will be very soon.
I'm so sorry, we're only 2ish weeks into 2023 and it's got awy from me already! I'm posting now
OK, quick summary following on from our conversation on Discord.
Round 1
Jalene attacks Siobhan, no Glimpse of Redemption possible there
Archers shoot Vyana, Siobhan has now acted so can use a Reaction to help Vyana
Round 2
Jalene attacks Lucia, Glimpse of Redemption possible
Archers about to shoot Vy, decisions decisions...
From hereon I will note what round it is to try and help with keeping things in order.
I'm geting really anoyed with the d20 system of roll badly, nothing hapens, wasted round/time. *Something* should happen when you roll the dice!
You're just spoiled by having played so many PbtA/BitD games lately :P
Just waiting on Brainiac to post, which is not a sentence I ever envisaged myself writing...
Made a quick post so as not to hold things up!

well yes, it's like drving an EV while everone else is still fooling around with cars from teh 1920s. And when do I get to playtest your game already :P
Thanks for bearing with me over the last week-and-a-bit. I'm back now
And when do I get to playtest your game already :P
When I've had time to finish writing it, so at this rate ~3+ years from now :/
Sorry, this year has been one damn thing after another so far!
Hello all - I've had some good RL changes to my life recently including beter job and even sometihgn that might be called a relationship, but you can probly see where this is going. I've realy enjoyed gaming with you on these boards and I'm very grateful to WW in particular for inviting me in teh first place and to all of you for making me feel welcome and included. But it's time for me to move on, I jsut don't have the time for this anymore and it's not fair to keep putting everyone on hold.
I wish you all a ver fond farewell - to coin a phrase - and all teh best for the future. PM me if you want my email but yuo should know I am very bad at replying and staying in touch.
Glad things are going well. Thanks for playing with us!
Take care and good luck!
Hi all, I was just waiting for Sarah/Lucia to post her goodbye before continuing. I'm happy to keep going with 3 PCs, I was having to up the challenge a bit anyway for 4 of you. Assuming you all want to keep going I will post the next bit of the game shortly.
I'd absolutely like to keep going.
Sure, good to go.
Great, moving on!
Just FYI I have (for now at least) picked up the BitD game that Sarah was running which means I'm now GMing two games in two completely different systems (or as Brainiac no doubt calls it, Friday). Bear with me.
I'll leave a bit longer in case anyone else wants to post

Friday? Brainiac calls that 'tuesday morning coffee-break!'
I'll leave a bit longer in case anyone else wants to post
Translation:
Someone else please post before this all goes pear-shaped.
You know me so well :D
You help the story along even (especially?) if you don't help your own position ;)
Between Lay on Hands and the Medicine skill, I'm generally going to assume that you go into encounters at full hitpoints unless there's literally no time between the fights - it seems to be the way that PF2 rolls.
That's usually the assumption I make as well. :D
PF2 really does seem to have ditched the 15-minute adventuring day.
Now if there were only a way to get spells back that fast. XD
Agreed, I think the way that cantrips scale with level provides something for the wizard to do even when they've run out of spells per day.
I still wouldn't say I'm sold on PF2 by any means but it's not as awful as I originally feared it might end up being. (Which is, I do realise, damning with the very faintest of praise!)
"Torak ... or somebody like that, right?"
Gosh, there's a name from the past!
It moves at 15 ft so you can in theory keep outrunning it - but to get past it to where you want to go, you're going to have to fight it.
If you all end the turn paralysed, I will be very upset. I'm not into TPKs.
Just waiting on Brainiac, the slacker.
Sorry, was out of town this past weekend. Posting now.
No worries, hope you had a good time away :)
So the good news is you didn't critically fail the save! You are paralysed but only until the end of your next turn, and then it wears off - no further save needed.
The bad news is the curse: you can't regain HP except via magic, and anyone Casting a Spell to heal you must succeed at a DC 18 counteract check or the healing has no effect. You can attempt a new DC 18 Fortitude save once per day (typically when you make daily preparations) to end this curse. The curse ends automatically if you're healed to maximum HP.
@Alorea: you need to make a DC 18 counteract check in order for your healing to work on Siobhan.
Let's see what Vyana can do to help the situation.
Made it.
I haven't been tracking your hero points, but remember you get 1 per 100 posts in gameplay (post 1, 101, 201 etc). We've done 400+ posts so you should have had 5 extra hero points beyond what you started with.
Hi all - I've hurt my back so sitting and typing is not helping right now. I won't be posting for a couple of days unless it's a short post from my phone.
Get some rest and feel better!
update: I'm back to sitting at a desk for shortish periods so should be able to concentrate long enough to type GM-length posts in a day or so.
No rush. Itzi is on vacation visiting Nik so both are indisposed this week, and I’ll be out of town and unable to post next week. :)
