Awesome. I remember starting with a d4 hd—earning a second d4 then getting a third and progressing to level 1.

With the importance of hp at low level in ad&d it made the characters more survivable. I think we then did the Hommlett modules. Good times!!


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Beltin had spring-loaded wrist sheaths. Drawing is a swift.


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Beltin uses his wand quickly, letting it drop to his side.

Vanish from wand then move 30' behind big man flanking with Elathras


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Two quick dagger cuts.
magic: 1d20 + 8 - 2 ⇒ (1) + 8 - 2 = 71d4 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8
mundane: 1d20 + 7 - 2 ⇒ (18) + 7 - 2 = 231d4 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

did the last attack get a rat?
Beltin steps and attacks with his daggers.
magic: 1d20 + 10 - 2 ⇒ (7) + 10 - 2 = 151d4 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9
mundane: 1d20 + 9 - 2 ⇒ (10) + 9 - 2 = 171d4 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Beltin waits for rats to threaten his buddy Elathras.
ready vs approach: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (11) + 10 = 211d4 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Beltin waits until a rat approaches.
ready dagger: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 101d4 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Beltin protects his friend the barbarian. He stands in front waiting to hit a rat if it closes his reach next to the barbarian.

ready attack on approach: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (7) + 8 = 151d4 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

init: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (20) + 6 = 26


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Beltin produces the finest lockpicks.
dd: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (17) + 17 = 34


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

per: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13
Beltin looks at it too.


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Beltin moves into danger......
reflex: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (15) + 9 = 24
A nimble dodge of the ball...

"Thanks for waiting for me!!!"


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

4/10 str, 10/10 after 2 lesser restos


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Beltin hugs Kaz as he feels refreshed.

"This was a nightmare. Now I guess we run back??"


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Beltin rests fitfully, waiting for rescue.


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

I think I have been at 1 str.

Not much to do but wait.


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Beltin waits, barely able to eat and drink.


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Beltin would tell Elathras the littler guy gets to eat the bigger guy in starvation scenarios as he can last longer that way.


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

At one strength, I would like to rest as long as possible.


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

I can only echo what has been well said.


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Beltin rests weakly.

"I can try to make some more alchemical equipment while wait for our strength to come back."


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Panicked at 1 STR, I don't really have much to do but move at half speed away. Grabbing onto a moving person or disk seemed possible, but hey, Beltin wouldn't be the one to say to go on without him, but no use throwing more characters into the threat range of multiple invisible creatures.


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Clinging helplessly to the disk, Beltin bounces away. He enjoys the smooth ride.


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Beltin barely keeps moving as he staggers under the smallest of burdens.

Beltin is at 1 str too!!


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Beltin slows to a crawl as he runs.

"Carry me someone." The burden of his light equipment becomes overwhelming as he his strength drains to almost nothing. He barely makes it 15' away.


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Don't think I will be acting for a while.

As the save was before the bless, I was panicked.


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Beltin is running now!!!

Invisible creatures would be hard to hit anyway.

Beltin withdraws 20'.


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

With a blessing, Beltin avoids the urge to bolt.


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

w: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (12) + 2 = 14


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

init: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

I would be taking 20 at portals and intersections, but I don't think it is allowed. There was time thieves listened at doors.


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

By RAW, Perception is a move action. So a Perception check after every move would be half speed.

That seems equivalent to the old school mapping speed and suited to a killer dungeon.


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

"You find the traps my barbarian friend, and I'll disarm them. Let me get out a bomb."

Beltin gets out a fuse grenade to soften up an animal lair.

"Find me the critter, and I'll make him hurt."


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Beltin joins Elathras in carefully looking for traps on the north door and anything amiss.

perception: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (15) + 8 = 23


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Beltin moves ahead , but is far from stealthy.

stealth: 1d20 + 12 ⇒ (1) + 12 = 13


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Beltin sighs.

"I cam make a silver coating for our weapons with my lab setup."


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

The one opposite the were rat


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Beltin attacks the rat without weapons.
att/damage: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (11) + 8 = 191d4 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

smite will bypass the dr


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Only if it is a silver magical bardiche


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

"Daal, smite that ratman!!"

Beltin throws an alchemists flame at a ratman, the naptha vial coats his fur an burns.

throw touch: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (17) + 7 = 24

damage this round fire/next round: 1d6 ⇒ 21d6 ⇒ 5


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

18 is in threat range for falchion!!

Beltin looks concerned as the rat bites him.

fort: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 = 9

"These rats are filthy!! Dolgrin, smite one of these tough lycanthropopes!!"


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Beltin steps back, not wanting to be flanked.

He strikes at the rats without rapiers with his magic dagger then his regular dagger befor stepping back.
magic dagger: 1d20 + 8 - 2 ⇒ (9) + 8 - 2 = 151d4 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7
left hand dagger: 1d20 + 7 - 2 ⇒ (11) + 7 - 2 = 161d4 + 4 ⇒ (1) + 4 = 5

"Someone get these lykanthropopes!!"


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Beltin steps next to the sorcerer and his knives flash twice.

magic dagger vs rat: 1d20 + 8 - 2 ⇒ (12) + 8 - 2 = 181d4 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8
mundane dagger vs rat: 1d20 + 7 - 2 ⇒ (3) + 7 - 2 = 81d4 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Fort: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12
Don't know if we got any rats with AoOs or readied attacks.


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Beltin holds his two blades and steps so he can attack if a rat gets past Elathras' mighty reach.

ready attack in case of approach of rat:
dagger: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 241d4 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Beltin hopes the spray of fire from his flask hurt the rats.

"I got flasks in my bag, I mean Elathras' bag, if you need them."

We have 3 alchemical fires, 2 acid flasks if someone wants to use them.


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

i'm good!!!


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Yes, take some time. I would inactivate your threads and pm people for the games when you are ready to resume.


Human [AC: 19 (21 small); ff 14; T:15] HP=37/37 F +2/R+9/W+2 CMD 18 Rogue (Counterfeit Mage) 4

Beltin mentions: "I got three more of these flasks if someone wants to grab one."
