Gregor Step's page

The only way I could see me going on with my son is if he had died or I just gave him up but as it was my one goal to find my son I couldnt see myself doing it.

Thank everyone, I have a few games I need to stick with/are nearly ending. Full time work with real life commitments really will start to affect how I post and the effort I can put into them I don't want that to happen when everyone here as producing some really good stuff. This is the biggest amount of players in any game I have played in.

I will try my best to keep up would love to rejoin if that was an option down the line, when and if everything settles down. I really do hope I havent let anyone down.

I'm going to have to bow out, I've spoken to Snow and all is good. Been a little off over the last week and it worked well that I had to take Tom away from all that business as I was starting up a new job.

I just have less time to post now and instead of it affecting the game and my posting I think this is a fitting place for Gregor to take Tom away.

I really wasn't sure how I would deal with a son and continue on. This is such an interesting group, very diverse I wish you all the best and I hope I can follow along and maybe play with some of you in other games down the line.

With the group returning from down below Gregor stands up from the chair. "So it's done.." He looks down at his sleeping son, so lucky to have him. "I didnt have any hate left in me after holding Tom, but I wont lose any sleep over Lamms fate."

Looking at each of their faces he knows something not right happened down there and is resolved in his reason. "I'm done, this is all I wanted I thank each and everyone of you for being here and helping me find my son. But I have to stay with him now, we'll put all this behind us. Good luck to you in finding your niece Ilsa."

He nods to each of them as he steps closer to Basiel. "You are a true friend where no one else would listen I thank you deeply, Tom will hear of how you saved him. Good luck my friend, good luck to all of you." He says tucking Tom in while turning for the door.

Still here also. I'm finding everything that's happening entertaining but I can see it from both sides. Gregor wouldnt stick around with Tom while all that was happening so I took myself out of it, his need for revenge is surpassed by his need to look after his son now.

But as was said by others, if we can just talk it out we should hopefully gets past any potential problems.

Gregor holds Tom closer as he hears the commotion down stairs. "Don't worry about anything, we'll be out of here soon. I just want to make sure they all get out, they all wanted to help save you." He rocks his son.

Gregor is just going to take Tom up stairs and sit him down on their own to give him a moment.

Finally away from that horror show, he sits Tom down and takes out a water pouch handing it to his son. "Drink up Tom, I have some food for you too. Things will be different now."

Congrats Snow, I'm sure we all know what starting a new job is like so take it easy no need to add extra stress.

Moving tokens myself is new to me on the boards and I have a lot of trouble moving them on my phone, but I will try my best to remember :)

"Thank you." He whispers and places a kiss on the boys head. "He doesnt know her, So I'm taking him now." He then moves out and heads towards the smaller ship to get out from under the fishery.

With the others not wanting to listen to Gregor he picks up Tom and starts to leave. "I can't stand here and let you take him apart in front of my son. I've lost all my hate for the decrepit old thing, no one deserves this now. Atleast think about Ilsa and her niece Briget.." He pauses and then looks down at Tom. "Tom my son, if you're still awake can you please help this poor woman shes looking for a small girl called Briget do you know her?"

Gregor just holds Tom tighter as he lashes out at him, tears welling up in his own eye's. Turning to the others as they discussing killing Lamm. "You have him tied up, we're not killing him. It's over my son needs to see that monster dealt with by the law."

He then turns back to his son. "Tom please. It was my fault I did all this to you, I was a fool but please, I'm here for you now." He begs for his son.

Gregor desperately tries to charm his son. "Tom it's me, it's your father." He moves to take off the gag and cut away the ropes. "I've got you.. After all this I've finally got you." He hugs his son still trying to bring him around. "I wont let anyone hurt you again please, Lamb is done he can't do anything now." He ignores anything else and focus fully on his son, the need for revenge sated by the need to be with his son.

I much prefer it like this, you dont get blocked up waiting for one person then. But I'm always happy to go with the consensus.

Desperate to get Tom away from dangerous with the wench now locked in place he jumps for the rope, using every ounce of strength he attempts to pull it in.

Strength: 1d20 ⇒ 16

"He's an old decrepit man! I have to keep Tom away from that damn thing." He shouts back straining with the rope.

It's been pretty damn epic so far.

Gregor desperately looks on as the massive alligator jumps for Tom only missing him by an inch. "Tom! Help me get Tom to safety!" He shouts pleading with those not dealing with Lamm.

He looks down at the wrench and attempts to pull it up. Please please please

Anything special to deal with the wrench? I don't want to risk dropping him.

Gregor pulls back just in time, gagging at the stench from the large creatures breath. teeth clenched tight he focuses on Tom and the Wench holding him just above the massive creature.

"Lamm you're done for! Move away from the edge but we have to try and pull Tom up away from it!" He shouts moving along the plank pushing past the group.

Acrobatics: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (19) + 6 = 25

He dances through their legs and attempts to look over the wench making sure it doesnt fall and wanting to pull his boy up.

Acrobatics +6 (+11 to move through spaces of larger foes)
That so good post there calling him out.

Sense Motive: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

Gregor edges close to the water, every muscle in his body is on edge."Listen to him Lamm! You know what I'd do for Tom, you move him one more time and thats it for you."

Bluff: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16

If he drops him again gregor will shout to kill Lamm and leap into the water.

"Lamm! This isnt a game! I know what I did, you are a saint in all this." He hold his hands up now attempting to appease the decrepit old man. "But don't do this, he's all I have left. Let's just leave it there, we came for Tom and Ilsa's niece. Just take it easy." He turn to the group. "Stay back! Don't do anything stupid."

"Lamm! This is between me and you, my boy... He didn't have to get caught up in all this. I never wanted this for him a life like this was why I ran from my homeland!" He shouts out one hands over his sheathed dagger and the other attempting to hold back the others. "Let me just get him down and you can have what you want, don't let them be your final play."

I 100% read that as unlock sorry! rushed posts on phones aren't my strong point. I would have taken 20 for disable device for 27 if we didn't have the key.

Gregor wave her off as listens at the door, tension building in the group as the large thing below seems to swim closer. Pushing at the door he moves in slowly.

Stealth: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (4) + 10 = 14
Perception: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9

Looking around desperate to spot Tom or Lamm, his nerves get the best of him as he steps aside for everyone else to move into the room too.

Moving slowly over the boards, the cramped conditions making it all that much more intense.

He moves next to the door checking for traps listening to anyone beyond it and if it's locked.

Perception: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (3) + 8 = 11

Thats exactly what I meant thanks Snow! Just to let everyone know this weekend I will be a little delayed for easter.

"I knew that kid wouldn't lie, something had to be here. But I've no idea how they would get past these damn spiders." He says looking through the secret door attempting to get a better look before stepping through. "You think there's something in the water? Could it just be a passing ship?" He looks back up as Bashiel, then back thought to the dock. "I'll go first, we need to push on Tom is down here. It seems like quite a squeeze for you lot." Gregor step carefully onto the secret dock looking about for anything hidden and keeping a close eye on the water.

I'll move forward slowly needed

Bo problem so far, its all been very smooth!

But I will echo what the others have said about the maps, Slides is very good for people to move themselves. I was also wondering if you could post the current map link at the top? On my phone I have a little problem getting in to google drive and then getting the map.

Sorry snow. I wanted to check the bottom, where we were fighting

Gregor is hesitant as the group collects himself. "The kid said Lamm goes this way? How with these damned spiders..." He looks at Ilsa the poison affecting her greatly. "You did good, hold back if you need to but that kid couldnt have lied to us maybe theres a hidden hatch?"

Perception: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (20) + 8 = 28

"Stay back if you need to Bashiel, we'll cover you." He shouts out.

Then slashes out at the spider again, attempting to put it down.

Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (2) + 3 = 5
Damage: 1d3 ⇒ 2

Gregor steps up into the spot cleared by Bashiel, unable to find a better angle of attack he slashes out at the spider attacking Varor.

1d20 + 3 ⇒ (8) + 3 = 11
Damage: 1d3 ⇒ 3

I wanted to try and acrobatics to get some sneak on but I couldnt see a way on the map (unsure where Kalem would end up)

Gregor continues to slash out at the small spiders.

Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 21
Damage: 1d3 ⇒ 1

Thought it might have been full round sorry.

Gregor lashes out at one of the spiders threatening his friend.

Attack: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23
Attack Crit?: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
Damage: 1d3 ⇒ 2
Damage Crit?: 1d3 ⇒ 1

Hearing the crash of splintered wood Gregor runs to the ship slipping past Kalem, stepping on to the desk and spotting the hole Bashiel left behind him. "Bashiel are you ok?" He shouts out attempting to look down through the hole.

I might want to jump down to help Bashiel, Can I see hes in danger? Is there any clear place I can?

Acrobatics if needed?: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23

Lovely Brin and a smashing entrance Bashiel.

As Kalem rounds the connor Gregor moves across the boardwalk wanting to keep up, it creak only slightly as he moves nimbly along it. Moving on to the rotten boat he looks for away down.

Yah! Enjoy your vacations. I've got a four day weekend next week to look forward, I really need it.

I hope for a speedy recovery for your pup too Quin.

Gregor anger is clear to all, he stands fuming at the very thought of Lamm taking Tom away to be alone with him. But he hasn't fully lost his mind yet.

He lets Kalem go first, but doesn't take his eyes off him his earlier talk to attacking the children not soon forgotten. As soon as the way seems safe to follow he moves along.

Stealth: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (3) + 10 = 13

Gregor is moving he doesnt look back to hear Bashiel words

Gregors balls his fists up his knuckles turning white. "Lamm... Lamm." He shouts with his teeth clenched.

"Wait here! We'll be back to get you." He shouts out at the kids. "We're going to get Lamm, I saw a small dock down the other side of the building." He shouts at the others drawing a dagger and quickly moving to the side of the fishery.

Gregor isn't going to wait.

"I'm here for my son! Revenge comes next, but I have to find him first I have to know if he's ok." He bites back at the others as he moves towards the kids hands held up.

"Please! Do any of you know a small halfling by the name of Tom? Have any of you seen him?" He starts to plead with the kids as he slowly moves forward, looking from child to child.

Perception: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (5) + 8 = 13 Any halflings?

Gregor opens the door into the larger room and shouts out. "Tom! It's your dad! It's me Gregor I've come to save you! Come to me boy!" He moves into the room looking around for his son.

Perception: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (20) + 8 = 28

@Brin Brilliant, I laughed at that.

Dodging the attack of the half-orc Gregor steps back. "Bashiel, I've got to find Tom." He then dashes out of the room. "We've got to get in there, the time for sneaking is over." He shouts to the others, moving to the opposite door next to the vat.

Full round to get to the other door by the vats?

Exactly the same here, I've lost two posts before I figured it was the server crashing out.

Gregor takes the changes and slashes out at the half orc as she fumbles about.

AOO: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16
damage: 1d4 ⇒ 1

Then continues his attempt to put the man down.

Attack: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14
damage: 1d4 ⇒ 2

With the man still moving about Gregor decides they have come to far and slashes out with his small dagger attempting to silence the man.

Dagger: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (10) + 4 = 14
Damage: 1d4 + 1d6 ⇒ (2) + (4) = 6 Take sneak out if not applicable

Gregor winches as Kalem slams his hammer into the waking man.

I assume he stops moving after that? I'd Like to wait and see.

@Kalem Happy for you to have the Kukrui at some point, forgot I can't even use it.

sorry rushed to get a post out as I was rushing to get to my hole game and my edit didn't go through,

He looks in again spotting the second person. "There's two, two are in there. A humans and a half-orc."

Gregor turns back putting a finger to his mouth. "One sleeping in here, let's take him out slowly."

stealth: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (2) + 10 = 12

I'm a little map challenged and didnt want to confuse people although I seem to be doing that anyway. (I'm too used to no matter the orientation the top of the map is north)

I really liking the fact we still have some surprise going on here. Gregor didn't care what Kalem did with one of Lamm's men but when we finally come accross the kids it might be a different story after how he's been speaking about them.

Before pushing the door open he whispers to the others. "There was someone snoring in here when I scouted, if we can take them by surprise to we'll be perfect."

Gregor moves with Bashiel as Kalem hides the childlike Halfling away.

Perception: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (1) + 8 = 9
Stealth: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (13) + 10 = 23

He moves to check the door if it is unlocked and he finding nothing he looks to signal Bashiel and the others and slowly opens the door.
