Alright, so this convention (and probably all future conventions) uses RPG chronicles for reporting ease. So here is what you all will do to enter your character deets.

Go here to this linky.

Fill in your info.
- It requests an name, email and player details. Only some of the info is required (*) and a lot of it is hidden from other players, only visible to yourself and the gm. The email is used to send you your chronicles and any random drawn rewards if won (I believe the rolling for prizes is done on the backend, btw).

Complete the scenario.

Your chronicle will be sent to you.

Seems pretty simple? I REALLY HOPE SO BECAUSE THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I'M DOING IT AAAAHHHHHH!!!!!

But seriously, if it (or your amazing GM) screws up, I can always do it the old fashioned way. You aren't required to create an account, btw. You can submit info as a guest. It just means you can't edit or track your submissions.

I'm pm'ing the last player to see if they are still joining.

Normally, I wouldn’t allow alternate check rolls for things. One picks their best skill for something and makes one check. BUT, I like the cut o’ your jib, Corba. And the RP from y’all. So…

I'm sorry, I did not intend to circumvent the rules... :-/

I know that this is how it normally works according to the game mechanics.
And of course these rules make sense for e.g. Knowledge checks which are (usually) not repeatable.
But I thought that, as the two processes to identify potions (Perception vs. detect magic+Spellcraft) are completely different, it's possible for one character to try both approaches...

Anyway, thank you for allowing it this time. :-)

You all have discovered about all there is to be discovered from an investigation at this point and done some great roleplay so I’ll move us along tonight or tomorrow. Hopefully as the next few things develop you can figure out the mystery!

sorry done!

FYI People have been having issues if they're not a paid subscriber. I know I did with my Outpost CORE game. There's another link in the main Outpost thread. Not sure if you knew this.


Spell Templates | Dwarf Info | Dwarf Maps | Quah | Trouble in Otari

I did not. I don’t keep current with those threads, just the emails they send out. I’ll take a look and see if anything needs to be done.

As far as I can tell after looking over that thread, that is only if you use the 'guest reporter' option, instead of doing it the way I did with a signup deal. Hopefully it'll go right. We shall see if there are issues when I go to report it.

Also, there is an opportunity for a boon IF you all manage to roll a '20'. There is also an opportunity for a voucher, but that will all be handled on the backend by the crew running the convention.

And since we are less than two weeks from reporting, please go ahead and roll for that boon.

The Order of the Stick is a great (and also really funny) long-running webcomic in a D&D 3.5e world.

It's definitely worth the hours it takes to binge-read it. ;-)

I stopped reading when he nearly cut off his thumb and never got back to it. I need to go back and read everything again.

Dwalin rolled a dayjob already (12 for 5g).

I need one from Kuikka, Corba & Barcher.

I need to report this game today, but we will continue with the mission. I will assume max rewards and prestige when reporting, as that is likely at this point. If things happen or change between now and the end of the scenario, I can send an email to have chronicles and reporting adjusted.

Kimlo still hasn't put their info into RPG Chronicles.

Ok, I ran out of time before work so I had to report the game. It was reported to the outpost HQ, and I believe they will email chronicles out. It should take a few hours or a day for that, if they are sending them. If not, I'll take care of everything when we wrap the actual scenario up.

Corba will have to add in her own dayjob once she gets the chronicle. And I'll probably have to do a pdf for Kimlo at the end of it all as well. Anyway, keep plugging away in game and we can wrap this up for good pretty soon. I promise SOME of the mysteries will get unraveled.

What else are we expecting to do here? Kuikka isn't in much of a story mood with the doll sacrificing itself.


Spell Templates | Dwarf Info | Dwarf Maps | Quah | Trouble in Otari

Not much, really. I’m just wrapping up tidbits. I’ll be checking all the success conditions to see if more things need done, but should be really close. After that, chronicles will go out.

Sorry this one took so long. My time required on games has ballooned, having major trouble finishing in the convention timeframe had never been an issue before.

I could blame this one for being RP heavy, but I also know I just went days at a time afk due to work and being super busy.


Spell Templates | Dwarf Info | Dwarf Maps | Quah | Trouble in Otari

Alright, I finally just powered through this all and collected/finished your chronicles.

They are here!

I can't give out Barcher's until I know how the disease has been resolved. If the rest of you can do a wrap up post and keep an eye on the game until that is resolved, that would be appreciated. I'm sure Barcher would be happy with some heal checks too, if he goes that route.
