Haarold's page

Still kind of thinking. Probably shouldn't leave you hanging though.

Think I'll just move along. I'm having a hard time sorting out the rules that I should actually be learning to give 5th a fair evaluation.

Later all.

I'm getting a bit confused by the amalgam of 1st and 5th edition rules.

I'm almost inclined to drop since at this point I'm getting almost completely lost as to how things work.

I signed up for this game to get an exposure to 5th edition, and let's be blunt it really isn't that. To be fair, I was warned, but perhaps I didn't understand how much divergence was going to happen.

I know 1st edition plenty well enough, and don't really care to relive it.

"I need to get my breath back. That was rough. "

assuming the goblin isn't already down (looks to me like it is)

to hit: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8 damage: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6 nevermind

"This is getting ugly. "

to hit: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11 damage: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (6) + 5 = 11 miss I expect

the universal language-homicide

Haarold reels from the deep cut, but returns the attack against the goblin that hit him. .

to hit: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16 damage: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (5) + 5 = 10

"Take that you little vermin!"

He's not overly concerned if they understand him.

Haarold will attack the same goblin again.

to hit: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (20) + 7 = 27 damage: 2d8 + 10 ⇒ (1, 8) + 10 = 19 iirc I don't have to confirm in this system

Haarold will move to engage the nearest goblin.

to hit: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11 damage: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7 miss

"Some nice stuff in here, but I got what I need. I'll trust in my axe."

Haarold will move forward and hew the closest goblin.

to hit: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20 damage: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13

Haarold will ready his shield and position himself in front of the door so he's ready when someone opens it.

Haarold will wait for people with keener eyes to wave him on to continue.

Happy Thanksgiving all. Will be rather busy with all the cooking soon.

Haarold will be in the front row since he's doing the tank thing. I suspect Anders is right next to him if it is 10' wide.

"Uhm yeah fought some goblins. Ok, let's just keep moving. "

"Oh yeah, Haarold. I'm just a town guard. I don't sport any lofty titles. "

"Right, yeah, well met and all that. Let's keep moving. "

under his breath "Dogs and cats, living together, mass hysteria"

"Looks like we got some backup food supplies in here. Best to keep that in mind. " and he will go back out of there and heads west.

Haarold will check out the room with the sacks.

"Ok, lead I will. " and he heads out in the lead.

"Damn, that's a lot of title. I'm just a town guard. "

"You don't much look like a princess. We're here to rescue a princess. If you are the princess, It's gonna be one hell of a dowry from the king. "

"We're not lost. We're here on a rescue mission. "

"Hail there countryman. How you end up here?"

Sorry, not really that familiar with the system. Just did the minimum.

I'm not going anywhere. I want to give the system a fair trial.

Harrold will take a moment to rest since he's a bit roughed up. "Thanks for the potion. Nasty tasting stuff though. "

Might as well take our time.

constitution save: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (18) + 5 = 23 so he lies there attempting to be stoic about the pain.

I'm a dwarf dammit, can't wail like a little baby.

might as well try

to hit: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19 damage: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (4) + 5 = 9

Haarold will try to search for the hiding throwers.

active perception: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (10) + 3 = 13

Assuming the goblin is still alive, Haarold will also move to engage.

to hit: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13 damage: 1d8 + 5 ⇒ (7) + 5 = 12

Haarold will help with the door.

I will be away for a few days and posting may be sporadic. Bot me as needed. I will be back online regularly on Wednesday next week.

"Keep going to the next doors this way? I prefer to check out a section at a time. " and if assent is given he will advance to those doors.

Haarold will try the door on the left.

"Damned big place. This was sure a lot of work to dig out. Guess we should check doors as we come to them. " then he will advance up to the first doors.

"Ok to open it?" if he gets assent, he will push them open and proceed.

Haarold will walk up to the door and see if it is open.

Haarold is actually more armored as well, and moves slower. He should probably be on point. The darkvision doesn't hurt either.

As for the silver, I don't believe I have the money for that.

I have no issues (though I wouldn't mind getting on with the dungeon).

"My axe was forged by a dwarven smith of good steel I think. "

"Umm, why do I need a silvered weapon?"

"No ale? I'll take Vodka and some of the soup. " and he ambles over to a place to sit down.

"Hurm, doesn't like a place to get a decent drink. Hope it is safe at least. "

"When I hear a name like 'Vampire Queen' I kinda get the notion that daytime is our friend if we're gonna pay a visit. "

done

made my suggestion already
