This profile is an example of how one might format the character profiles. No need to create one before being accepted, but please use this as a guide in submitting a character. This is also my character submission in the event that another GM wants to try to run this. The current player (not including myself) is: Weyland Piper, Human Paladin (Shining Knight) of Iomedae
Okay. Skipping past that, then. We'll pick up an arcanist of some persuasion when we hit topside. We are sorry to see you go, Vaelor.
Quick roll call, let's see which of us are still here. I'm game to keep running this if folks are still interested in playing. If enough people have fallen out, though, we may need to recruit a couple of replacements, though. Possibly rewind a bit.
"I have rope you can use to lift and lower, but I don't have the strength to lift bodies myself, except perhaps the Lady Anevia. I'll be able to heal any cuts or scrapes, however. So, how would we like to do this? One rope on either side, and one going across the middle?"
"That would probably be Kayla, I would think. But what about our friends? They'll have a harder time crossing this way." Enshi gestures to Anevia, Aravashnial, and Horgus.
"I have some rope. Not enough to get us down one side and up the other, but enough to get us down." Enshi pulls the rope from his pack, then looks at the others. "Anybody have a way to fasten it, or should one or two of us hold onto it here, then toss it down and climb down after?"
My apologies. The threads had disappeared from my Focus list, so I couldn't see them. Updated in Gameplay.
I was hoping that the sickness would have lifted by now, but it looks like it either hasn't, or time and circumstances have not been kind to DM Grey. I'll take up the reins again, although I'll leave the invitation open to DM Grey to jump in if circumstances favor taking over again.
I am, as well. :)
As a note to all, DM Grey has expressed a desire to return, so I'll step aside once a post is up, and I can step back in if needed.
Enshi moves toward the trapped creature, giving his wounds a quick examination before moving to assist Reinnwulf.
My apologies, folks. Things got crazy at work with the holiday. I'll have the next gameplay post up shortly, if folks are still here.
Gameplay posts are moving forward, all. I'll bow aside anytime DM Grey asks me to. Until then, we shall muddle through as best we can.
Best wishes for you, as well, DM Grey. May you vanquish the holiday crunch with as much vigor as we shall attempt to bring to bear on the forces of the Abyss.
Oh. Does anybody know how one goes about applying to take over the name on the thread? Or should I just start a new campaign thread and discussion thread and such?
Yup. And Kayla is Kobad. Actually, I think I'm in two campaigns with you and three with him.
I'll take it. I'll probably post the next chunk sometime tonight (PST). About to leave for work. And thanks for the offer about the maps. I'll let you know.
Roll off, Reinnwulf?
Rock
Howdy, all. So I'm going to throw the question out again. Do we think DM Grey is MIA enough to bring in another GM? His last post is, I believe, his last post for us. No posts since. I'm willing to step up and take over if we need to. Enshi can be a Bot or can disappear if so.
Push comes to shove, I can do it.
Oh, boy. Fingers crossed.
Average HP per level? Okay. I can roll with that. I'll be updated shortly. Edit: Make that updated.
DM Grey:
Enshi will move forward to hear the last part of Kayla's report. "What about, I dunno. Talking to them? See if we can get help from them to find the way out?"
Enshi leaves the body for a moment and moves over to speak with Barundar. "If you have no objections, I believe that this poor soul should be cremated, so to speed his spirit on its way to the forge of his God for judgement. I was going to ask the mage if he had any spells that could accomplish the task. My own magicks are not strong enough for a complete cremation, I fear."
Enshi assists in removing the corpse(s) from the temple, then prays over the body, seeking to send the fallen priest to his proper resting place.
Enshi holds his holy symbol high, calling on the power of the Dawnflower to heal the group. He then moves to the Dwarf, pressing the holy symbol to the man's shoulder as he prays.
After healing the others (and himself), Enshi looks around. "I don't want to hold up our return to the surface, but I think that we might want to do something about this temple. It's possible that it absorbed enough evil from the Huecuva that he, or something else, could grow here and come after us. It might be worth stopping to rest and taking the time to reconsecrate the temple so no more evil can grow here."
Enshi stops where he is, the scimitar dropping toward the ground as he catches his breath. One he has his wind, he calls out, "How is everybody? Who's injured, and what have we lost?" As people answer, he'll reach for his holy symbol and touch it to his forehead, thanking Sarenrae that they survived. He'll kneel and begin to search the rags and bits that were once the Huecuva, looking for any clues or useful items.
Staggering from the Huecuva's attack, Enshi steps around the undead and slashes at it with his flaming scimitar just before the flames gutter out.
GM:
Enshi's eyes widen as he figured out what stands before him. This is much too strong to fight alone, but it already savaged the Dwarf, and the others are busy fighting elsewhere. Oh, gods, gonnadiegonnadiegonnadie, Sarenrae give me strength! "Huecuva! Priest-Zombie! A little help here! Nga Iskakku Qamu!". This last in a strange tongue, although the effects become readily apparent as Enshi's scimitar bursts into flame. He takes up a defensive posture near the door, blocking it from exiting the room. "You'll have to go through me to get to them, fallen one."
Enshi reaches for his holy symbol, calling on its power to summon a bolt of fire to throw at the skeletal figure. In its light, he'll try to catch a glimpse of the figure savaging the Dwarf. "Barundar, watch out!"
Just as he is about to reply to Anevia's statement, the sounds of combat reach Enshi. "Stay here. I'll be right back.". Drawing his scimitar, Enshi moves to join the fray.
"I see. Well, if it is not your place to say, perhaps now is not the time to speak of it. Was Irabeth a follower of the Father of the Dwarves? A sister? Comrade?" Enshi fails to notice the growing concern of the others around him, even though he had heard the initial buzzing.
Enshi goes to one knee on the pretense of checking the dressings on Anevia's leg. Quietly, so as not to be overheard by the others, he murmurs, "You know Horgus from before all this, don't you? Or something about him, something that relates to this temple. What he says hurts you. Is it a secret?"
Hey. Thanks for taking over. Google Docs is awesome, since I currently have no Internet at home. As nice as Roll20 is, I can't look at it on my phone at all. Mature content is also perfectly acceptable at any level. :)
I could also GM under the same conditions as Reinnwulf. I may be able to get a friend of mine to do it with myself assisting. He's learning GM-craft, and he's never done PBP before. I'll ask if he's interested. Oh, and did anybody's build include Trapfinding, or might it be worthwhile to dip for it in mine?
Sucks, but I've been there before. Best of luck, GM Tierce. :) I vote for finding another, if we can. I'd like to keep playing this character with you guys.
Out of curiosity, since I was thinking about shifting my build away from the Prestige Class I was looking at, do you get Trapfinding, Kayla? Since I'm probably not going to take my Prestige Class, I was looking at alternative ways to get Perception as a class skill, and one-level dip was looking like one of the ways to go. Looking at either Rogue, Bard, or Inquisitor for a dip.
Enshi hurries over. "Are you in pain? Perhaps my magicks might help with that."
Enshi looks up above the building. "Does anybody else hear that?"
"If you are skilled at such, I, for one, would be grateful if you would. How are you feeling? Did the serpent harm you?" Enshi sheathes his scimitar, and does a quick examination of Kayla to see if there's anything he can do.
Enshi moves toward Kayla, keeping his scimitar ready in case the snake tries to bite him.
Drawing his scimitar slowly, Enshi moves to interpose himself between the NPCs and the viper. "Be careful. There's a rather large snake there, probably venomous, and it doesn't look happy."
"Is everyone all right? Anybody hurt?" Enshi sheathes his scimitar and moves to assist any injured parties.
Enshi will take a look at the bones that were being examined previously. "Do you think those things were what killed this one?"
