Well, let's talk a little about gaming. I picked up the D&D 5th edition so, I have been getting a feeling for the game again it is different than the original manuals. How are they different from Pathfinder? Do you really think one is better than the other?I’m interested in opinions from people who’ve played both, because I notice a lot of the games round here are 5e. I love PF and think it’s a fantastic system, but am intrigued by people’s experience w/5e. I have not played much of 5e but I liked what I saw. Characters are made much faster, and I didn't feel like the system was working agaisnt me when I tried to rogue. It certainly have a lack of choices, but compared to pathfinder gazillion of useless things that's not that bad.
Who was the most memorable NPC you've ever run and why? Damn ============================================== - Have you ever reused a years old NPC that your players have liked?
I have an "oh duh" moment when I realized that tacticslion is not a haphazard collection of letters. Tact-icsl-ion have so much meaning.
I will play videogames, spend time with my nice and post in the forum after more than a year just to remember the feeling of regret for abandoning a couple of play by post campaings.
@ Seth Running the same way than the others would only ensure to be hunt down with them. When exiting his room, seth can't avoid to notice that Piddleton and Jysson are making battle plans, those fools. The survivalist half elf pets his raven familiar in order to abstract himself from the danger outside and focus on deciding his next move I should just leave, but these fools are marching to their demise...well, it's not my problem...but...uhm, I do have an invisibility spell if things goes wrong. At the last time Seth decides to help as much as he can before running for safety. From a window, I'll use minor illusion to create cover to myself and start sniping at the approaching enemies
===================== @ Daratha Holy Torm... - Daratha's first impulse is to tell them to just run away, but she perfectly understand the desire to defend their home even if that cost their lives. Ok then, Take whatever weapon you can find. Our goal is to protect the lives of the townfolk and make sure they can get to a safe place. We'll not blindly march into enemy's swords, understood?. Now let's move!.
Daratha (And whoever that goes with her) move north.
========================== @ Seth Damn F#%@!- The half-elf awakes scared and angry at his choice of coming here. Seths hurries to the window to see if he can pin-point the direction of the attack and, with some luck, discern a posible route of escape. ============================== @ Lord protector Shendrel Sword in hand, Darathra comes out shouting orders to the town militia(?). The objective of Darathra is to save as many live as possible, but rushing to combat only means a sure defeat. So, She first tries organize the town defense.
"How did it happen, who are you people?" He died in the middle of, uhm, how to say it, a treasure hunt?. In any case ma'am , we were his last teammates.
Seth was about to say that alive it's not a word that can be applied to Odan any longer..., but the half-elf prefered better to practice his diplomatic skills No joke Ma'am. Sorry if this is not the best way to find out about a friend death, but there is no good way to communicate a news like this
Eh, I guess it's more what happen in real life when you get to do actual work instead of living of scholarships.
Srry for the disappearance, I was working almost triple shift in the job, always thinking "i'm too tired, I'll post tomorrow". But the extra work is over, so I'll post tomorrow.
Even with the bad manners and dubious pronunciation the elf here have a point. Should your scaly friend be judged by the action of a red wyrm, or all dwarvenkind for the actions of your gray cousins?
They seem fairly hyped up on adrenaline, and one of them screams "Giants are the new scourge of the North! We're taking them out!" I've heard that dragons are quite evil too, why don't you start with your scaly friend there? or only giants are to be subject to attacks based on blatant discrimination and not any proof of wrongdoing?
Seth most definitely doesn't want problems with the Silver Dragons r with Alustriel's Henchmen. Hopefully Jysson will solve the things peacefully (?).
I have the feeling walking would had been a better idea for us Seth looks for a high place where he can snipe in case the dwarf are less than friendly.
So, The cloud are after something. That might explain Z's hospitality If zephyros is not around I keep the document until I'm sure I can share it to the others without interference. If he is around, I'll leave it where it is until he is gone.
At this point Seth is not really accepting any dust from that giant. Is there gold?, letters? something that hints what were the guys intentions?
THe guys seems to be telling the truth about their gift... In any case, Any idea of what to do with big Z up there? And about Jysson actions We need at least one living for interrogation
Seth tries to finish the cult leader
Seth feels pleased that all immediate enemies are dead by now. Without the pressure of nearby opponents, the half-elf cast Faerie Fire in order to illuminate pindleton's attacker
I take the disadvantage over the AoO
Eldritch blast on the guy closest to me.
one thing that I've seen working in other campaigns is to put the initiative order into the campaign infor "short description" section.
WHat the hell did you give to him? - Seth Stands up ready to unleash eldritch fire at the first provocation.
So, what do you say guys?
Seth turns to his companions He have a point, we better hurry with the giant - CAn I send my companion to wake up the Giant?, it's a raven I'm not sure if Raven speaks in 5e.
Uh,lies?..., don't you know the difference between being able and to have permission?. Are you really telling us that you can't wait a couple of minutes until the Giant comes and receive you himself?
Seth moves near gloriana and replies The owner of the fortress is being informed of your arrival, we are only his guests and don't have the permission to open the gates.
So, can knowledge skill be rolled "untrained"?
Eh, who is going to awake Big Z?...Ah, Gloariana, that save me trouble.
Seth twitches uncomfortably. The ground is too far below as to escape in case the giant change his mind and wants to eat all of them. Not to mention that the whole story of the warden of the north is crazy talking. The Half-Elf is too uncomfortable to speak, he prefers to slyly look around for places to escape or to hide in case something gets wrong.
Seth enters and he is overwhelmed by the size of the everything there, specially, the owner of the place.
I can get (and actually already have) some spells as ritual spells. Ah, btw, I have find familiar, Can we suppose I've casted it already?
Are thoset the kind of runes that kills anyone that come clsoe to the door or something like that? -
Ah yeah, an invitation from a powerful and evil wizard most likely - Seths follows Sohar.
@ I already chose my magic Item, GM. What I meant is that without the possibility of buying magic items there seems to be few opportunities to spend the money.
I liked Odan and all that, but it seems we'll need to journey into a hell of dangerous place just to inform a death...Just saying.
I'm done shopping, without magic items I don't even know what to buy.
I think I've done the leveling up. Only need to choose what to buy.
I'll have Seth ready for tomorrow mid day, I think.
Quantum corrections to classical electrodynamics and applications.
Not really. This is my first time in 5e. ====================================== GM infinity, I'm sorry that your tower of the last baron game didn't run as smoothly and you might have wanted. I'm just walking out from my thesis defense but I surely could have posted a little more frequently.
Dm, can you open a thread in the gameplay so we can dot in it?. Being busy and all that makes easy to forget to post here.
Seth remains quite, not really knowing what to say. He didn't knew Odan, like at all. But everything was going so well and then dead came so suddenly.
That probably makes a great Barbarian :p ================================= I'll keep Seth if nobody minds. Otherwise, I'll probably go for a cleric. |
