I'd be willing to play again but I think I'd like to make my own mouse.

I mean it's not that I don't care, it's that I'm satisfied with the ending we've achieved and I don't want to do anything else with this character. 2/3rds of my description has to do with drawing maps; it's really not very engaging for me.
But isn't this the end of our thing before we cycle over to the next group of players? There's really nothing I want to do with Ingrid; it's hard for me to like her character. I'd rather just pass.
Ingrid will make her own attempt at the broken leg.
I'm not sure I properly understand, what exactly is it we can do? Can I try and heal Robins leg?
"It'll be a nice reprieve from the road at least."
I got 4 successes, can't we impede him and boost us?
"It's not a question of survival. Consider that you are staking your entire life on your family tradition. Noble, admirable even, and I can see just how much you love your daughter. Are you really willing to risk never seeing her again and going through with this?"
Does the guard have any authority to arrest or detain people?
Does Bonehead-wise help me here?
I work the weekends so it seems especially tragic.
I don't understand how I can halve the helping dice, each mouse only contributes 1d6 and you can't halve 1d6. Also, Dain, it's better to put me up for maneuvers.
"Yes, but make no mistake the guard does not make a policy of unnecessary risks. How much blood would you asked shed on your behalf?"
"What if it isn't? Have you seriously considered the consequences of what you're endeavoring? Chances are that it's already been turned to kindling right now. Your time is better spent here, with your daughter, forging new traditions."
"It's true, the whole territory is infested."
"How is your ankle Robin?"
It starts to drizzel again, masking Ingrids scent and hiding her paw-steps. She easily manuevers across the ravens nest with the weather on her side.
Ingrid creeps forward, careful of where she is stepping along the way. She signals the rest of the mice to be prepared in case things go wrong.
Ingrid climbs up as quietly as possible.
---------------- Ingrid speaks in a hushed tone once they are at the base of the tree. "It'd be an arduous climb to get up to the nest. What do you think, Dain?" she's distracted a bit, updating the patrols maps with the location of the nest. Even if they couldn't get the mail back, it would be important to catalogue the creature. Perhaps the guard would later send someone to deal with the problem. "We certainly can't smoke it out without risking the mail itself..." she adds thoughtfully.
What will our compromise be? We need to track the raven down. Perhaps Robin was able to see the Ravens nest or something while shes flying around on it.
Ingrid fires yet another arrow at the Raven, this time attempting to distract it away from Dain.
"Just hold on Robin!" says Ingrid as she moves to Barons side and knocks another arrow. She takes aim, careful not to actually strike the Raven, instead hoping to push it further out of the sky to Barons halberd.
Ingrid offers her hands to Robin to boost her up: "Careful, now"
Let me know if there's a way I can better format my posts in the future to help.
Right, ok, but I don't have Loremouse that I can see so the only thing I could roll was my Nature 6 as the test skill, which was why I rolled 6d6. So then the +2d6 of helping would be added to my 6d6 that I already rolled of Nature?
Mmmm I may be missing something. I thought you said we could use nature to defend. Is there a Nature skill and then our mouse nature as two separate things?
Ingrid quickly draws her bow and fires off an arrow at the diving Raven, Imposing herself between her companions and the bird.
"It's alright Robin, lead on." says Ingrid, placing a reassuring paw on the young mouse's shoulder "Baron and I will be right behind you. Look here, see how the rain has washed away the path? Pay attention to the topography of the area and you may be able to pick it up again."
"I do" replies Ingrid with a nod "Safe paths have been cataloged by the Guard already and there lies a route directly from Lockhaven to Gilpledge passing through each other of our destinations. The only question lies in the final leg whose path takes us on a large north-eastern detour. We could accomplish the same in a third of the time if we struck out directly from Dorigift but we run the risk of wandering outside of guard patrolled areas."
Guys...I have a deep, dark secret to confess. I-I can't really read cursive. This map that we have may as well be in moon-runes for all I can decipher. I'm sorry.
"Now to find our fearless leader. Robin, have you seen Dain?"
Robin straightens up, and wraps her cloak more tightly around herself against the cold. Seeing Ingrid, she snaps a salute, clicking her heels together as best as she can. "Good morning, Ingrid, ma'am! Bit nippy today, innit?" Ingrid joins Robin on the wall, blowing small clouds with her breath before finally speaking "You'll warm up soon enough, tenderpaw. We have a mission to attend to and we'll be departing Lockhaven shortly."
Ingrid spends her days sweeping snow from stone on the outer walkways of Lockhaven. She found the chill of winter pleasant, although it bit far less thanks to her thick cloak. During her free time between drills, she attempts to draw the crystal structures of various snowflakes she finds. An endlessly tedious task no doubt, but a good one to pass time.
Aww, I wanted to be Macario the Mouse. O whale.
Just to be super-clear: are we just using the statblocks or the whole characters?
I can play Ingrid by the looks of it.
Pregens it is. Once we get that information I'll update my alias (I'm keeping the character art tho).
I might just do some alchemist equivalent then. Not sure what the range of stuff that the game handles. I'll try and come into possession of the books soon.
Damn, no chance of picking up the old wizard traditions then. I don't mind using pregen or custom statblocks.
Any chance for magic?
It was a noble effort but I think at this point the momentum is long gone. It may be time to consider if this game can realistically continue.
Round 2 Still unsure of what to do Macario is paralyzed with indecision. He considers casting a spell but stops; thinking it would do more harm than good.
Round 1 Macario holds his position near Pandora at the rear of the group, searching for some sort of direction in the combat. Meanwhile he continues to wring his staff nervously.
Right now? Sleep
I forgot to reprepare my spells after we camped last night so I'm not all the way up on combat stuff.
