Alexis Trowner's page

It does indeed suck. I was really looking forward to this one.

Yeah, just checking in here as well.

META: Convenient, since I just caught up on everything that was overdue from my GenCon trip. I'm ready to go whenever you are, GM.

Also, Phoebe - my condolences on your loss. :-(

o/' I love snow! I love snow! Can't wait to watch it blow! I love snow! I love snow! In a way you'll never know! I don't care if it's five degrees, let me go outside, I'll wear a coat so I don't freeze... o/'

Alexis swears as her phone starts ringing from her purse. "Sorry! It's work, I have to take this." She gets up from the table as she pulls an iPhone out of her purse. "Hey, Janine, what's up?", is the last thing the table hears before she walks out the store to have the work conversation outside.

I figure that's as good a way as any to explain why Alexis isn't able to play while I'm at GenCon. :)

Alexis slinks a bit in her chair. "I wanted to go shopping and talk to the shopkeep," she says quietly.

Hmmmm...Aeonedae? Same basic credo, but she looks like Aeon Flux?

@therealatrowner playing my first adventurefinder game fun but dont know what im doing lol #GamerWidowNoMore

Alexis giggles at the jokes before adding, "Or a saucer of cream?"

"Speaking of mysteries, any of you ever watch any ghost hunter shows on TV?"

"Oh, yes! It's too bad they never find any real proof of it, though. Maybe the ghosts are camera shy?"

Alexis smiles back to Phoebe, though she can tell it's a bit of a nervous smile.

Alexis glances at Phil with open exasperation. "Yeah, of course they're clean. I wouldn't spring magic brownies on people without them knowing!"

Phoebe sighs deeply at the allegation of questionable brownies and watches James rather dramatic reaction. Hello I am Phoebe Barrett and this is my girlfriend Alexis Trowner. She is playing a Halfling Sorcerer while I am playing a human Oracle. Oh and the brownies are completely wholesome.

Alexis smiles her partner explains her character. She looks around the table and nervously brushes an errant lock of hair behind her right ear. "So, this is my first game, so can you take it easy on the new girl?"

Not a problem, Phoebe. Alexis will be very nervous and unsure of how anything works this first adventure, so she'll be following your lead and asking LOTS of questions. I signed up for the 'partner dragged to the table,' and that means relying on the experienced player to help a lot!

"Um, I brought some brownies," Alexis offers, pulling out a reusable container lined with wax paper with small black squares of rich chocolaty goodness. "I normally put walnuts in them, but I wasn't sure if anyone had allergies. Oh! And they're not gluten-free. Is anyone gluten-free?" She opens the top, and passes them around to the group, starting with her bae.

I will let you know what I figure out the money stuff. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

<3<3<3 its mah bae! XD #GamerWidowNoMore

I actually had us in graduate student housing. There's apparently two on campus, and I chose the cheaper of the two. Manville Apartments.

Ready, I think...but can we wait until my partner gets here? Um, I'm not even sure what dice to roll.

Ready whenever you are, GM?

Thanks, DAA!

If I recall, CoC doesn't follow a traditional skill point system. When you succeed at a skill roll in game, you make a check mark next to it. When the GM states that an adventure has come to an end, you make another check, this time trying to exceed your total. If you beat it, you earn 1d3 points on that skill. Basically, it's hard to learn a new skill, but there comes a time when you really start picking up on the stuff, followed by a time where it's very difficult to advance again.

FYI, Awnara's player has been statted!
