Balder The Cursed's page

Thanks peeps.

Hey everyone. Sorry for going missing again. Real life i kicking me in the nads.
I'm overwhelmed with work, which is chewing up a lot of my time. Family issues, which isn't so much distracting each day but emotionally is talking a bit of a toll, and currently looking for a new place to stay as I've been crashing on the floor on a camping mattress since January so I'm perpetually tired all the time. Hopefully a move will help me get some kinda equilibrium again.

And I hate having to go silent and leave you guys hanging all the time, so I think it best to count me out of the game till further notice. Might be able to come back in in a couple months as I was really enjoying the games I'm currently in, but I'm always too mentally exhausted to post and read through the posts.

I've been agonizing over posting this for the past two weeks but think it's for the best for now.

Sorry again. Hope everyone understands.

Best

"I didn't wanna do this but..'

Balder then smacks at the wolf attacking Yorikata, using Agrimmosh, but feels a little bad cos it's probably just hungry.

Attack: 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (16) + 11 = 27
Damage: 2d6 + 4 ⇒ (5, 6) + 4 = 15

"Dain get over there!!"

Balder brings Arimmosh off his back and swings it into his big calloused hands but keeps quiet waiting for Yorikata's signal.

Balder preps the boat and hops in, "Who's comin, dying to get some solid land under mah feet, if even for a moment."

Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (15) + 5 = 20

Balder removes all weapons and gear from the woman while she gets tied up.

"okay what just happened! Is the thing still in the water?" Balder says looking around.

Balder keeps his eyes peeled on the water looking for whatever tried to grab him.

Balder shrieks and hops away from the tentacle. "The.. there's somethin' in the water!" And pulls out his short sword.

"YORI!!" Balder shouts then runs forward across the water, drawing a short spear as he runs and letting launch at the woman.

Move 30ft and attack

Attack: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (1) + 9 = 10
Damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Balder steps out onto the water tentatively then with his short sword levelled in front of him he asks with a quizzical look.

"Erm... and what did we do exactly?"

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21

Balder moves up behind the other two with his short sword.

"Water should be on the outside of the boat." he says looking at the brackish water.

"Killit!"

"Bah! Frack this and yer cursed barge." Balder says exasperated then turns and follows Dain, drawing his short sword for close quarters and lets Dain lead as they enter the darkness.

"Could use some light down here. Y'see anythin Bramage?"

Balder groans and walks over to where a metal mug is and as Yorika finishes, he grabs the mug and to get the point across he picks it up and squeezes the bug until it's crushed in his fist then puts down the mangles mugg and says to Raag.

"Answer the lady. Truthfully this time."

Strength: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

Intimidate: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (11) + 3 = 14

So I built Balder on Hero Lab, because he has the ability to wield Large size weapons the War Hammer stayed Large.

** spoiler omitted **

** spoiler omitted **...

Wow those are some cool artifacts. Who did we get it off of?

I have to attune to it to be able to use all the abilities right?

balder I will allow you right now to have put on Usgroth's Armor if Gran't' isn't wearing it you could also have the War Hammer would stay large since you can use it.

You keep the dmg dealt but your AC would go way up

I think I missed these in the threads, what armor is that and is that a special warhammer or should I just equip a large size warhammer?

Hey guys. I'm back. Finished my deadline last thursday then spent a few days recovering. I'm checking now whats what.

Balder walks over to Dain who's standing by the door and leans in and whispers to Dain "I have half a mind to sink this damn ship and all the lying poisoners on it."

I've lost track of how much damage I've taken, is Balder even alive still?
Balder tries to free himself while he's bleeding from everywhere.

Strength Check: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 4 = 18

My internet is so slow that Lanneth posted in the time it took me to post my action. This should be interesting.

Balder runs right up to the drake intending to crush it's head with his mighty mace.

"Raaaah!!"

Attack + Power Attack + Furious Focus: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10
Damage + Power Attack + Furious Focus: 2d6 + 6 + 4 ⇒ (2, 2) + 6 + 4 = 14

Balder hefts his mace. "Best calm that horse Dain." he says and keeps an eye open for the drake.

Perception: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6

Balder screams "Go down curse you!"

And smashes at the drake again with his mace!

Power Attack + Furious Focus: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16
Damage + Power Attack + Furious Focus: 2d6 + 6 + 4 ⇒ (6, 3) + 6 + 4 = 19

Busy day, looks like I just missed my action by some hours.

I'm about to his the sack and it's late so posting my action now for my slot.

Balder pulls a spear from his back and takes aim at the same drake that Yorika fires at.

Attack: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (18) + 8 = 26
Damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10

Hey guys. Will level up today :)

Hey guys.

So an update to the last three games that still have me.
I'm like 568 posts behind in this thread, can anyone give me the cliff notes on where we're at?

So things in RL right now. My doggie is healthy and like a brand new dog after he had his gall bladder removed, and as of yesterday I am finally moved out of my girlfriends place, it was a very long and emotional few weeks and I only just got my actual work station up today after a week of not being able to work and falling behind on deadlines, I'm still stressed but I think I can get back into at least a post a day.

So what do i need to know and what level should I be?

Hi guys.

Shew I'm over 400 posts behind.

Sorry I havent been active on the boards. Life has been hectic. Between moving my family into two different places (My sister and her family into one and my mom into another), attending Con's, my dog getting seriously ill and having to have an operation, and breaking up with my gf and in the process of moving out on top of a hectic work schedule and being behind in deadlines I have barely been able to post on one game, let along any others. And it's days and sometimes weeks go bye before I remember that these games are still happening.

Sorry you guys.

But how is the game coming along?

Hey guys. Just giving everyone in my games a heads up that I'm currently swamped with deadlines, family health emergencies and travelling for work all at the same time this week so I won't be able to post until my return and even then will probably have to recover from jet lag. So probably won't be posting till the following weekend. So please bot me as needed till then. Sorry about that.

"Ack!"

Balder shrugs and says 'Here goes nuthin."

Then charges at the giant trying to take a massive swing at it's kneecaps.

Charge+Power Attack: 1d20 + 7 + 2 - 1 ⇒ (16) + 7 + 2 - 1 = 24
Damage: 2d6 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (5, 5) + 6 + 2 = 18

I get +4 to my AC for Mobility

Balder doesn't wait for another bounder and instead also rushed behind the wall for cover with a spear in one hand and his mace in the other.

Balder moves forward between Dain and any enemies, and draws out his throwing spears and places them in the ground before him for ease of use and to throw at any oncoming orcs or giants.

"Light that thing Dain."

"Is that it? Did we get them?" Balder says and

Balder draws his short sword and cuts at the rope holding the logs in place just in front of the barricade

Hopefully those are logs that are there. and go rolling down into the orcs.

"Orcs go squishy squashy!"

Hey guys.

Just to clarify, I didn't move on my turn and waited for Gran't to move then I would have moved to his position before the bolder rolls over and squishes me.

"Gran't! Switch places with me, go help Omast!"

Balder will switch places with Gran't and as he does will attack the first orc that shows his face in the gap.

Balder looks at the bodies behind him. "What if we stack more bodies to make a wall and hold them off then get back and take whoever comes over at range?" he suggests.

Balder comes around the corner with one of his short spears and also launches it at the bomb thrower

Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27
Damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

Confirm Crit: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (8) + 7 = 15
Damage: 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (5) + 4 = 9

Balder hops over the barricade and sprints around heading towards Gran't. "On my way Gran't!"

Cool, I'll run around the terrain, and over the barricade. Gran't will need help holding the line so I'll head there. But I don't wanna end my movement right where I'm gonna get hit.

Would I be able to get to Gran't with a charge or at least get into range of the other orcs so that my javelins could hit them?

"Yori, be careful!" Balder says then moves up the the barricade and draws out a javelin just in case.

Yeesh I missed a day and a but and there's 20+ posts. Yikes.

"Dammit Omast, can you not be hammered at this point in time!?" Balder says shaking his head.

Awesome thanks for the Heal Lanneth. :)

Perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19

Balder swings his mace a couple times to get the orc brain matter off, and looks at the cut to his side from the falchion.

"Stupid orc's are starting to pis... hey waitaminit?!" he says looking at the half orc that Yori just murdered in cold blood.

"Look at her hands, those burns look like they're from working the smith.. oh, wait isn't that... is that?!" He says and then turns her over.
"Bring the light so I can get a better look at her face. It's too dark in here."

Balder takes the hit and then swings recklessly again at the orc in an overhead smash.

Attack+Power Attack+Flank: 1d20 + 7 - 1 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 7 - 1 + 2 = 24
Damage+Power Attack: 2d6 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (4, 4) + 6 + 2 = 16

"I'm gonna shove that sword right up yer...!"
