Ira Oniborn's page

Oh, hey, I'm still here, by the way, just very quiet :P

Ira takes a moment to catch her breath after her mighty blow against Bawldok. She ends her rage and is fatigued for a round.

"Sounds alright, 'slong as we're here we should get some sort of treasure from it I say." She hoists Bawldok up and heads back down the corridor towards the trap.

Ira throws Bawldok to the ground, standing over him with her greatsword drawn. She suddenly seems to grow larger, her eyes grow fiercer and her muscles bulge. Ira is now raging.

She looks as though she is about to separate Bawldok's head from his shoulders, but she instead turns the flat of the blade towards him and smacks him in the side of the head.

Non-Lethal Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14
Damage: 2d6 + 8 ⇒ (6, 6) + 8 = 20

Ahh, something just went wonky with posts, sorry! I posted twice, deleted the second one (it was a better roll).

Dex Check: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16

Sorry! I was returning from NYC, got home and crashed :P

Ira, making use of here faster-than-average speed in armor, rushes back away from her companions after the fleeing man. She had never intended to let him go without at least a walloping, and she sets off after him, fully intending to bring him down. anything else be-damned.

Seeing chuffy swoop up into the air, Ira charges forward at the Kobolds, attacking the closest one.

This would be after Burning Hands.

Charge: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (11) + 7 = 18
Damage: 2d6 + 9 ⇒ (6, 6) + 9 = 21

Max damage :D

The kobold pretty much explodes.

Ira grins back at Gimlet with some fairly scary teeth. She then, displaying a level of speed that seems out of place for someone of her build, rushes forward, slicing cleanly through the kobold with her greatsword.

Charge Attack: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21
Damage: 2d6 + 6 ⇒ (2, 6) + 6 = 14

Ira draws her sword, but doesn't see any way to get to the kobolds without going through her allies. Instead she walks past Chuffy to peer into the darkness down the second hallway, ready to make Kobold Paste if necessary.

Under the normal rules Nose would not have missed the unconscious kobold, since helpless creatures have an effective dex of 0 (which means they lose any dex bonuses and have a -5 to AC), and melee attacks against a helpless creature get a +4 to hit. Attempting to automatically kill a helpless creature (coup de grâce) is a full round action. Although it looks like Nose is close enough to do this, I don't know that a non-intelligent wolf would know to use such a tactic, and would likely just go for the biggest threat. I have no problem with any house-ruling, just want to make sure we're on the same page as to the rules in this situation.

Ira is just following Chuffy.

Ira, never one to make her own decision in situations such as this, follows Chuffy into the larger room, hanging back a ways still, but also making an effort to be somewhat quiet.

Stealth: 1d20 - 3 ⇒ (4) - 3 = 1

It does not go well...

Hehem, tiefling, not human, Ira has darkvision... wait, where are you getting this humans idea? Isn't it only Tensen? Ira can follow decently close to Chuffy, since she doesn't need a light, with the light-source-needing people traveling further behind. That way Chuffy has backup if there's trouble, but we don't have light right behind the sneaker.

Ira will follow Chuffy at a decent distance, close enough to dash forward if there's trouble, but far enough back to allow him to be sneaky.

Good with me.

Perception to notice bear tracks: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

Ira, once again in her own strange and quiet world, silently follows behind her companions, without much regard for the world around her.

Ira will follow whatever decision the group makes, at this point. She will also attempt to judge whether or not their captive is trustworthy.

Sense motive: 1d20 ⇒ 1

She does not trust him in the slightest.

Ira grins at the man, revealing a mouth full of very sharp fangs.

Back to normal size by this point, Ira comes into the house to see the quarry up close.

Where is Ira in relation to this conversation? Are you all still inside the house?

Neutral vs. Evil just doesn't have the same ring to it though...

"That still confuses me..."

Well, you certainly can't let any information gained from peeking affect character decisions, that's just poor form.

Ira, who has been standing silently and gigantically nearby, casually wiping the blood and brain-specks from the sword directly onto her armor, looks puzzled.

"I'm confused, if he doesn't want to go to jail because it would make his life less fun, why does he want to cut his own throat instead? Wouldn't that make it even worse?"

This isn't any sort of negotiation tactic, she's really just confused about his reasoning.

Dear Evil and Good teams,

I have no idea what's going on, but I crushed a guy's face with a giant sword and it was awesome.

Sincerely, Ira

Seriously, I'm not even sure what her motives are right now. She may be driven purely by bloodlust, or maybe shyness... I completely forgot to write up backstory or personality before we started, so I'm just going to see what happens. I'm not sure she should be on the good team though :D

Alright, well assuming Ira was already enlarged, yes she would have run around instead of trying to go inside. If she meets the man at any point after running at him, she'll attack as rolled above. Those rolls weren't counting enlargement bonuses, in which case the attack would still be 17, but the damage would be... 1d6 ⇒ 1 2 higher :P

I actually made that sense motive check as a joke about Ira's low intelligence and utter lack of social skills, it certainly wasn't a circumstance in which it would have mattered, as we clearly heard them being dumb :P

Also, if Ira gets enlarged she won't fit in there, will she?

Ira, confused about why the group is suddenly on the offensive, nonetheless charges into the house, sword at the ready (assuming she can actually go into the house).

If she encounters an enemy,

Attack Roll: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (13) + 4 = 17
Damage: 2d6 + 9 ⇒ (5, 6) + 9 = 20

Woah damage.

Sense Motive: 1d20 ⇒ 13

Ira looks at her companions.
"I'm no expert on reading people, but that did not seem an entirely truthful explanation."

Ira follows slowly after the group, standing behind them all, still holding the greatsword casually.

I wonder what sorts of treasures and secrets we can find out here...

Perception: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (3) + 4 = 7

Distracted by her thoughts, Ira misses a clue of actual treasure.

Ira stands, sword ready in case of trouble, looking unconcerned.

"What are we hoping to find? The bounty man?"

Yup, Ira doesn't really remember or care about a rivalry, out of sight out of mind. If we bump into the tieflings she might care, but otherwise not.

Ira follows in the back, warily watching all around her. She appreciates being on the move, and for once with some company!

"I wonder what this place has in store! Is it not exciting to walk into unknown places?"

Everything seems good, watches wise, we're waiting on GM to tell us what happens in the hexes or at night, correct?

Ira also seems much happier out in the wilds, although her mannerisms more closely resemble Lillith's than her humanoid companions.

"So, what exactly are we doing? We need to capture a man, right? Where is he?"

Ira has four days worth of wandermeal, which also can cover for any missed survival checks, but between her, Tensen, and Chuffy I don't think we really need rations.

Exploration, Hex 2: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16
Exploration, Hex 3: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (15) + 4 = 19
Exploration, Hex 4: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (11) + 4 = 15
Exploration, Hex 5: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13
Exploration, Hex 6: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16

Food, Hex 2: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 23
Food, Hex 3: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (9) + 4 = 13
Food, Hex 4: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (12) + 4 = 16
Food, Hex 5: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
Food, Hex 6: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (16) + 4 = 20

Oh what the heck, I've totally been online this whole time, I just missed the one exciting hour >.>

Survival, if it matters at all: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (19) + 4 = 23
Perception to generally see stuff while traveling: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

EDIT: Survival ninja'd by Tensen, quite hard.

Ira follows after Finn excitedly, in a much better mood than any of her companions have seen so far. She doesn't speak.

Ira, still leaning on the sword, gives Chuffy an uncharacteristically jaunty wave.

"Good morning, goblin!"

Ira doesn't seem at all anxious, or impatient. She has taken the sword from her back and now leans against it, swaying back and forth as she waits.

Ira shrugs noncommittally, she seems to be content following the gnome in whatever is next.

Ira, very relieved to be exiting the tavern, and civilization in general, follows after Finn silently.

I posted, are we ready to be off?

Well, assuming that the rest of her party fills her in on what Trope said, Ira and the gang should be headed west to try and find Bawldok. I guess I'll wait for the rest of the party?

Red 5, standing by.

Yes, unfortunately our (BEAUTIFUL, WISE AND MAJESTIC) game master has disallowed traits :p

Welcome to PbP, Xico!

If you have a character alias, with information written up in it, you should use that for posting, at least when in character.

Some tips for PbP posting (although I'm fairly new to it myself):

Third person generally seems to be the best voice to use, as it prevents the point of view from rapidly shifting as you read through a page of posts. This is different from most real life roleplaying that I've been part of, but I think it works well. A great advantage of PbP is that your only interaction with the other players tends to be in character, so there's much more opportunity to have interesting relationships with the rest of the party.

Oh wait, nevermind, I forgot about this thing, which is more information than I have :P

Here

Pretty much everyone is quite friendly and fun on these boards, so don't hesitate to ask anything.

Ira goes silent as Finn speaks, and blushes slightly when she talks about the newcomer. She is content with letting the gnome do any talking and socializing that's necessary, glad that they should soon be leaving the tavern.

Is it worth going to see? Anything to set it apart from other Burton/Depp/Dark Makeup/Helena Bonham Carter movies? I was on an Avengers binge the past 4 days...

Oh also, just noticed, Finn has traits, you should get rid of those :P

EDIT: Unless that's only on this alias, I guess we're using the OP ones mostly, in which case sorry.

EDIT 2: Ninja'd

Ira stays at her seat during the time Finn is off shopping (again), and after some prodding by the gnome she does open up somewhat.

"My name is Ira, I'm from a long ways away. I don't fit in much, so it's good to be part of a group. I hope that I don't hurt any of you, I'm getting better at that..."

She seems distracted for a moment.

"Is that green one coming? He was a fun little creature."

Where is there collapsible 10' pole :o

"Sorry little one, I've got as much as I can carry already, but do you think we'll need two poles?"

Ira rather obviously has a 10' ft. pole already lying with her pack, which looks incredibly heavy. She picks it up with one hand, muscles bulging.

"Hmm, with this armor it probably wouldn't slow me down any more though." she says, and takes the other gear from Fionn.

Hmm, he's neutral good, might need to have him in ours instead of Chuffy, doubtful he'd get along well with the evildoers :P

Ira gives the gnome a nod, but remains silent. She seems intent on being gone from the tavern as soon as possible, but only due to the many people there, not the mission.

She will remain at the table, responding vaguely with grunts when necessary, until everyone is here and we're ready to go. Having had a "good" chat with Chuffy the night before, she's on his side for him joining the party, but it won't crush her if he doesn't end up with them. I'll be away for the next 7 hours or so.

Well, our characters are heading out in the "morning", but that's arbitrary in game time that is easily shoved around :D

I'm heading off for the day in a few minutes, should be back by start though.
