Me too. I would offer to carry it forward, but the way my time has been, I can't even make a reasonable attempt to search for a replacement game to play in, let alone commit to running one.

Very sorry to hear that. If life settles down and lets you start again, I think you know where you can find some interested players. All the best to you and everyone at the table. Not gonna lie, I'm gonna miss my little archer... Peace.
"Varook!" Lenna keeps up a steady rate of fire.
Lenna strides forward to get a shot and studies the creature. Even though she's too close for a good shot, she opens fire with the bow. ◆ Stride
Lenna has taken a few experimental swings with the scimitar, but chooses to stick with her current array of weapons, so she wraps the scimitar in her bedroll and stows it. As she finishes, she hears the challenges issued and she hustles to join her friends, bow readied. She will stay back and out of sight, though.
Lenna takes the scimitar and admires the craftsmanship.
For the moment, she carries the beautiful weapon, but at the first opportunity, she offers it to Amaril to see what they think about it.
Lenna will position herself to be able to fire at any threats to the monk as he's examining the lumps.
I would think any of the hybrid classes would be less necessary in the new system, but I don't have time or inclination to really dig in. I've pretty much given up on the general discussion threads, to be honest, for that reason. I do recall that the Gunslinger is awaiting rules for their weapons, so that makes it sound like it is something in the works. I don't know what a tactictian/warlord class would be that couldn't be done with a warrior bard. But - like I said, I have only spent enough time on this thought to write it down - there are probably many factors that I'm glossing over.
Yes? What have they shared thus far?
Take care of yourself.
Lenna continues to fire at the green spider, moving to yellow if green falls.[/ooc] ◆ Hunted Shot
Lenna focuses her attention to a different spider and opens fire.
◆ Hunt Prey vs Green
"Looks like we're going to need some fire!" She releases her old on the amulet and brings her bow up as she takes a couple steps forward to shoot around Varook.n She marks the yellow spider as her Prey and opens fire with a Hunted Shot.
◆ Stride
”Oh, yes, good idea.” She calls out, ”Hello? Do you know Balka?”
"It appears to have worked. Should we open fire?"
Lenna reaches out with her eldritch hand, grabbing a strand of webbing about 25' away and tugging gently. She waits, then tugs again, and trying to imitate what she imagines a captured creature would react to the realization that it was caught, she twists and yanks frantically for a moment, then stops completely. She will continue the charade, refreshing the hand as necessary, until something happens or the others decide it's not going to.
Lenna moves up to stand beside Raff. She looks at the spiderwebs surrounding them. She says, "Erevel, lend me a hand!" and a ghostly graceful hand appears before her. She looks at Raff and asks, "I could tug at one of the webs to see if anything responds..." ◆◆ Activate Hand of the Mage
May we all enjoy a holiday of both Thanks and Giving. Peace, health, happiness.
So that sounds like a consensus. Cool!
I got very frustrated with the speed of the new HeroLab and decided to cancel my subscription and let them get things figured out before I throw more money their way. Of course, that means I'm working everything by hand currently, which is slow because I want to be accurate. We have three basic weapon runes, two striking runes, one returning rune, and two basic armor runes. Proposal: Varook gets a striking rune - with the doubling rings, that's a great value to the party, a 2-for-1. Raff or Omari gets a striking rune - they both have other tactics in their respective bag of tricks, so I'm not sure which is going to be using their weapon for damage the most. The other character gets a basic weapon rune (from the dagger) for a secondary weapon. Aramil gets the +1 rapier after its striking rune has been removed - that just seems logical. That leaves us with a +1 returning starknife - it does more damage than a dagger, it is agile and finesse and versatile and has longer range than a thrown dagger. It's an upgrade in half a dozen ways to Lenna's current melee offering, but she's not in melee often, so it might not be the most effective use of that weapon. But I'm going to suggest that she gets it, anyway. I think the armor runes should go to Aramil (with AC 20, I believe everyone else is at AC 21 or better) and to whichever character didn't get the second striking rune - Raff or Omari.
There is also the unclaimed +1 returning striking starknife.
Inventory request - who has what magical weapons and magical armor? What enhancements would you like to get from the runes we have available? I'll go first: Lenna has a basic weapon rune for +1 to her longbow. She has no runes for her armor (and would be last to ask for one).
"What about the one on the rapier and the leather armor? Is anyone going to use either of those? Oh, and the scrolls - can any of you read those?"
"It would seem if the lair was farther from town, it would be easier to come to an agreement."
OK, I finally got back in here and completed her level up with GM's reply. She has the Animal Companion class feat and the Train Animal skill feat. In the process of trying to clean up her character sheet, I realize that I apparently shorted myself a general feat, so she now also has Cat Fall. Reporting for duty!
Lenna’s mouth drops open in surprise, then she giggles, ”Balka? You surprised us! Let’s talk!” She will study what she can see of the creature and designate it as her prey, just in case.
”Maybe fire?”
Also post your level up details. Five of us already did, so I guess it's your turn? :D Mine did include implied questions for the GM so I could finish my decisions...
”There might be more at her shop that we overlooked before, but she may have left some nasty surprises.”
I have gathered more than my share of items on this journey already, but if no one is interested, I would be open to the magical rapier - or swapping the striking rune from it onto my bow.

Ding!
HP +11
I'm a halfling. Shoving people around the battlefield is not a natural instinct. Perhaps Raff and I could have traded places and he could have done it, but I do agree that I should have gotten out of the way and let someone more adept at melee have my spot.
Lenna cleans her dagger off on the woman’s clothing. She looks at the blood on her hands, tiny nose wrinkled. ”That... that was unpleasant. I was afraid her magic would be too much and I wanted you to have every advantage you could get. But... next time, I will keep my bow and let Varook work his magic instead.” ”Can someone help me with this blood?”
Lenna continues attacking with her dagger, hoping her flank gives Raff some aid.
◆ Attack
”Raff! Enough of this!” Dropping her dagger as she steps back, the halfling fires two quick arrows at the spellcaster. ◆ Step back 10’
Lenna continues attacking with her dagger, hoping her flank gives Raff some aid.
◆ Attack
Lenna continues trying to poke illusory versions of the mage.
◆ Attack, possible critical
Seeing that the woman is not going to give up, Lenna steps up with her dagger and attacks hoping to take out some of the extra images.
◆ Step
Lenna looks at her bow and the grappling pair and decides she has the wrong tool for the job. She stows her bow and draws a dagger. "Your hired army has fallen or fled. Your skeleton will soon fall. You have nothing to gain in continuing to fight. Surrender."
◆ Stow bow ◆ Draw dagger ◆ Talk smack
Lenna hustles toward Raff and Voz and attempts to roll past the two of them in the narrow tunnel, hoping to prevent the woman from escaping.
Lenna focuses on her shots, not saying anything. ◆ Hunted shot
