I understand dude, I’d be interested in a different game with you. Pandemic posting has been hard for me as well.

I'm still here, feeling much better as well. I want to continue but I'm ok to hold off and do some recruiting. Its going to take me a while to get back in the swing of things, first goal is to finish leveling up, I'll try to get that finished up tonight.
Well, looks like the wife and I both have coronavirus. I’m currently using most of my energy to do stuff with the kids. Not sure when I will get back to posting regularly. Nothing serious right now, just worn out.
Yeah, I'm right there with you. Still haven't finished 2nd level update. Its going to take everyone a while to get back into the swing of things and Real Life should come first.
I am acknowledging the need to level up and post but I haven't hada good chance to yet. Hope to get that finished up sometime today.
Nosh inches forward, as though he doesn't trust that the combat is over. He's far enough away that he can't tell if Hallod is actually dead, so he says, "So is he dead? We're safe?" Assuming an affirmative, Nosh takes a moment to cast Detect Magic and checks to see if anything in the room is magical.
Nosh fires off another glob of acid at the sly man.
"Careful everyone, he's a wily one!"
I'm going to check in tonight and post if needed but if at any point this week you're waiting on me, autopilot Zurkha. My dad is kind of touch and go. Best wishes for you and your family. Prayers if desired.
I think the Int gets added in at 3rd level because its not explicit until Heightened (3rd).
Nosh, seeing the state of things, moves forward a step (avoiding the tripwire) and hurls another glob of acid at the dangerous man.
The criticals help, ho boy. This sure feels brutal! I didn't realize I was going to be this crap on damage. I feel like I'm not helping hardly at all. It might just be my spell choice. This is my first prepared caster so I'm having to adjust to that. All in all, I think I like 2E so far.
Nosh makes some familiar movements with his arms as he prepares an Acid splash, but it takes a little longer than normal for the glob of acid to shoot from Nosh's finger. It seems a little faster and brighter to those watching and goes farther
Nosh moves into the mouth of the cavern, standing against the wall. He mutters some words opening his arms and, winding them up once in mirror movements, he gestures with both open-palmed hands at Hallod and the wind follows his hands and Gusts at him, carrying any of the smaller or lighter boxes and barrels with it. DC 17 Fort save:
Critical Success The creature is unaffected.
Success The creature can’t move against the wind. Failure The creature is knocked prone. If it was flying, it suffers the effects of critical failure instead. Critical Failure The creature is pushed 30 feet in the wind’s direction, knocked prone, and takes 2d6 bludgeoning damage.
Nosh mumbles under his breath as he checks for magic in the room.
Nosh looks back and sees Findlaine sitting up and speaking with Laurel and Zurkha. ”We should probably finish in here and get back to town so we can rest. Let’s keep going. Findlaine can stay back for now I think.”
Yeah, Conceal spell is giving me pause. It would be cool to be able to disguise when I'm casting spells. So many feats, so little time.
Nosh glances with concern while others deal with Findlaine, but he turns toward the other entrance to the cave, goes over, and listens and looks to see if he notices anything of concern.
Nosh scurries around into the cavern, staying as far away from the serpent as possible and fires a glob of green acid at it with his finger. ◆-Stride
I’m contemplating a rogue dedication dip. Any thoughts? So far it looks like it probably won’t have a huge impact good or bad.
Congratulations! Enjoy!
Nosh waits for Galen to move forward and then moves into the cavern, points his finger at the giant snake and a sickly yellow bolt of energy streaks towards it.

DC 17 Fort Save:
Critical Success-Unaffected
Success-Enfeebled 1 Failure-Enfeebled 2 Critical Failure-Enfeebled 3 Enfeebled-penalty to STR based rolls/DCs including STR based attack/damage and Athletics checks Nosh cackles at the snake.
Goblin: "Ha, got him!"
Nosh, wary of the light pool, casts Detect Magic .
Oh, that wasn’t a prod. Just glad to have a good group!
I've been enjoying the game guys and gals. Hope we can keep it up.
Nosh nods in agreement with everyone, even if they disagree, because he is busy picking up the scattered coins.
Nosh gives the interesting bottle a look over once he sees it.
Nosh turns around at Laurel's comment and sees all the others gathered around the latrine, Findlaine and Zurkha's obvious distaste and goes over to take a look. Nosh pokes his head into the chamber and says, "What's the problem?" and goes in, rooting around for anything of interest.
Nosh, busy with the main room, ignores most of the items, but grabs the money. When he sees the locked box, he sighs, pulling out his thieves tools and looks dejectedly at the broken tools. He tries to lift it, but the heavy box is pretty big. He looks up and says to Zurkha, "Can you open up this? I can't open this lock, but you might be able to break it open."
Nosh enters the room muttering under his breath and flinches at Zurkha’s contact. He begins to look for papers, especially those that might explain why Hallod had a grudge against Bort.
Nosh, confident at having handled the trap upstairs, gets his tools out to deal with the lock. Its not that hard of a lock and he can easily get past it...he thinks. After his first attempt, he shrugs and mumbles, "Bad lighting is all. Shouldn't be this hard." After the 3rd and 4th try, he is muttering curses under his breath and sneaking nervous glances at his companions and his hands start to shake. By the end, he is just jamming his tools into the lock wildly in frustration and the end breaks off in the lock and he just slumps in defeat.
Do what you have to, hope what ever it is goes well.
Nosh twitches nervously as he looks at the lock, pulls out his tools, and gets to work, checking for any kind of trap that might be present as he goes.
Nosh approaches the locked door, alert for traps and says, "What do you think? Shall we go ahead?"
Nosh, in his fear, flings another blob of acid at the most active wolf, unaware of if it is even a threat anymore, but he doesn't even manage to hit one of the bodies in front of them.
Nosh let’s out a scream and jerks his hand at the nearest dog and shoots a glob of acid at the terrifying beast.
Nosh puts his hand on Laurel's knife, waggles his fingers, mutters a soft incantation and the knife begins to glow. Nosh then looks up and begins another incantation, another motion and touches his temples to detect magic.
At the bottom of the chute, Nosh notices the humans struggling with the darkness and says in a small voice, ”I can make a light, should I do it? We already gave up on being quiet didn’t we?”
Nosh smiles when Findlaine but sputters when she mentions the locks and traps, "Its n-n-nothing, I just like tinkering!" and quickly puts his tools away.
Cool, thanks!
Hey, just out of curiosity, how close are we to level 2? In a general sense? Half way, pretty close? Long ways to go? Just wanted to get a feel for how we are doing.
Spurred by curiosity at what Zurkha has mentioned, Nosh says, "Sure, I can take a look. This guy sure seems pretty cagey to be trapping this dump." Nosh moves forward to see if he can find some way of wedging something into place to stop the trap or something else that would be simple. If it looks too hard, he will check out the wall on the exterior wall beside the hatch to see if it is load bearing.
Nosh follows behind Zurkha and Findlaine perfectly happy for them to argue about who goes first.
Nosh follows behind, hands prepared for any magic that might be necessary.
Nosh jumps a bit when the lock clicks and the door comes slightly ajar. He looks at Zurkha and shrugs in a questioning way.
Nosh stiffens up with Zurkha's encouragement and leads him around the house to the back. Looking at the back of the house, at the windows and walls, he tells Zurkha, "I've found a secret entrance to the house, but its locked." Nosh looks sheepishly at Zurkha and says, "I might be able to get it open, should I give it a try?" If Zurkha gives the affirmative.:
As they come upon the house, Nosh thinks more and more about the confrontation to come, becoming more and more nervous the longer it takes to get to the house. He's become a mess by the time they get to the house and when Phinnick points at the tree house, he squeaks in fear and hides behind Zurkha. "He chops off ears! I'll go around the back and look to see if there is a back door." Nosh slinks off around the house.
