Masuuk the Gorumite's page

Chronicle looks good! Thanks for running! Thanks all for a fun table and for keeping the Gorumite alive.

After an extended, unplanned rest, Masuuk regains consciousness. "Who's a 'tin can'?!" He growls. Looking around, he realizes that he is no longer in the pub. "Wha-? What happened?"

"More! Give me more to bring down!" Masuuk cries. He moves behind one of the fishers (foregoing the flank) in order to bring his sword against two fishers.
Stride(unless chairs are difficult terrain, then Stride x2 and only count first strike

Warfare Lore: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22

"If it is a fight you want, you've got it!" Masuuk growls in response to the fisher. He draws his blade, lunges forward, and tries to bring the fisher down.

+5 Ranged; presumably there are three PCs with better ranged attacks.

Fortitude: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21

Masuuk joins the toast. He takes a swig, then goes for another.

Fortitude: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21

"May I join you?"

"No objections from me," Masuuk grumbles. "But don't be asking me to 'integrate' any 'bio-fromakroisms' or whater."

Unsure whether the others are getting through to the harbormaster, Masuuk takes a more direct approach. "Tell us where Stella Fane can be found." He growls.
Intimidate: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6

Remaining somberly quiet during much of the voyage, when directedly to do so, Masuuk plunges into the water. The heavily armored orc splashes into the water, quickly sinking deeply. He remains below the waves for some time, leaving some question whether he would ever surface. Eventually, his toothy mug breaks the surface and he tromps up the sandbar.

She stands up, brushes off the worst of the sand, and looks around at their measly sandbar, surrounded on all sides by vast stretches of empty ocean. "So what do we-- oh hey, there's something buried here!"

Feel free to read the spoiler.

Finding something physical to place his immediate focus, Masuuk pulls up the buried object. He attempts to open it.

When, it fails to budge, he allows it to sink back into the wet sand.

Wait - you are a cleric of nothing, without spells?!?

He is still grieving the loss of his god, so he has not yet been "rebuilt". For now, he continues to fight--for that is what he knows--and risks death knowing that there is no god waiting for him.

When offered a unique roleplaying choice, I went with it. I realize that Masuuk doesn't bring as much to the table as other PCs, so please don't feel compelled to expend resources to keep him alive. If he dies, he dies.

That being said, having played and run this adventure, I don't anticipate that his lack of divine contact will place a meaningful imposition on the party (if I thought that might be the case, I would choose a different PC).

Masuuk info now on Slides.

I am heading out of town tomorrow and may not be posting again until sometime Monday, February 10. Feel free to bot me as necessary.

Massuk battles with a fish.
Survival: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (7) + 7 = 14

[b]"Danger is inherent in all competition. This one should be no different. Victory is what matters!" Massuk suggests.

Nature: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (6) + 7 = 13

Masuuk the Gorumite battles his armored foe. "I shall dine on your flesh this day!"

"To battle!" Masuuk cries as he draws his blade. He rushes toward one of the crustaceans.

Damage (S): 1d12 + 3 ⇒ (10) + 3 = 13

Masuuk makes another attempt.
Nature: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (14) + 7 = 21

But, that's supposed to happen months from now!

Wait.

I don't know how much is "planning", but I absolutely rolled up Masuuk the Gorumite as soon as I learned about the impending impact on Organized Play of a certain upcoming event.

Nature: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20

The Gorumite maintains his streak.

Looks like Masuuk’s god has failed him…

But, that's supposed to happen months from now!

Masuuk charges in after the Linesnapper.

Athletics: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8
Athletics with Hero Point: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8

Masuuk tries to draw on his knowledge of these type of fish to better catch them. "Know your enemy." he urges.

Nature: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (4) + 7 = 11

Masuuk eyes a spot
Survival: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (13) + 7 = 20

"Taking the high ground oft leads to victory!"

Masuuk stands by his words and begins to form tactics for the.battle ahead. Admittedly, it is the first time he has approached a contest involving fish.

No good skills for making an impression.

I am posting by phone. Would someone place replace Vingarren with Masuuk on the slides?

I will get Masuuk 's chronicle info up eventually. Please do bug me until I do.

"Oh! Um-- you don't really need to worry about this particular challenge-- I mean-- It's a challenged for artists, not a challenge for warriors."

"I see no distinction, For which of the various arts can produce finer artists than the Art of War?" Masuuk declares.

When the others head to the inn, the orc follows, mug still in hand.

“I think you forget that my crew is the only one that managed two victories in a row, sis,” the man boasts. “This year we’ll do even better, and you’ll eat your words before the day is over.”

Masuuk approaches the two siblings. He finishes the contents of his mug, then hands it to Vamasu before addressing the pair. "You are both fools. For if there is victory to be had this day, it shall belong to Masuuk the Gorumite."

FYI. I was diagnosed with my a serious infection last night. I've since undergone surgery and am scheduled for a number more over the coming week. I will be hospitalized for at least that long.

I am currently in good spirits, have a fair amount of energy and some sudden free time. I don't know how long any of those will last. I currently expect to be able to post, but please free to not me if I have not responded within a 24 hour time period.

"Challenges? There are those among you issuing challenges?" The words are punctuated by the slam of mug against a table as a heavily armored orc rises to his feet. "know, then, that I Masuuk, accept each one of them! Whatever the stakes? Whatever the plunder!"
