Tim DaVoker's page

Thinking you probably missed the hard rooms, wouldn't know unless we spoiled it though. Both of them had obvious boss vibes about the encounters.

It was a pretty difficult run. Played 3-4 and made it through mainly due to having two clerics and a 7th level bow ranger. It felt like playing a hard mission a tier up from where you should be. I mostly healed/buffed people and tried for bow crits with my archer cleric. The only timing I am aware of is that you had to finish it within the scenario window. But that isn't any different than any other con game.

Have played 1 and 2 of bonekeep, although I would really like another crack at part 2 as the convention group I got stuck with for that one was pretty bad. Work has been killing me (what else is new?) and I am less than happy with my current post rate in my games. I'll see what you guys decide to do and go from there.

"We found the big picture. It didn't have mimes." Tim announces to the VC.

"Tim think lion look batter on book." The large man says while lumbering into the room to look for more useful words.
Perception 1d20 ⇒ 18
Wow, Tim may actually contribute here.

"Those books weak." Tim states before searching for more useful items.
Perception 1d20 ⇒ 10

"ARCANE DAMAGE!"
Tim bellows while charging in, attempting to smash the small books with his much larger book.

"Magic Lion can come fight with Tim if he wishes. Tim has strong magic book you could join with." The large man offers the lion.

Tempted to ask for a metal puck, but seeing as that scenario died before it started...
"Tim lord of Taldor and wish to help magic away the demons. You should help."

Will 1d20 ⇒ 15

"Tim only play drums. It is only instrument that is strong enough for Tim." Tim responds to the instrument question. Upon arriving back in the main the large lord informs the group. "Tim and Wads found the big picture. No mime."

"Tim thinks that is the big picture." The large man says while pointing at the portrait on the wall.

Yeah, this is going to be awful...
Tim begins searching for the "big picture".
Perception 1d20 ⇒ 5

Tim holds his large tome up and peers through the hole in the center. "Tim see no magic here."

Perception 1d20 ⇒ 10

Tim wanders the library, struggling to read book titles and occasionally mumbling about mimes.

Tim moves to look over the skinny mans shoulder. " Kiv... cecoo...mime...Mime!" The big man says with a bit of excitement. "Tim think they want us to find a mime!"

"Tim holding book." The big man says, producing the large tome again. He then takes a few practice swings. "Let's see them dodge."

"Can't steal what's mine. Taldor books. Taldor lord." Tim says with a big grin while pointing at his chest.

"Tim knows lots about dungeons and traps. We will smash traps and bring books." Tim says while gesturing to the group.

Yeah, I didn't read the intro till I picked a character. Just to be fair and all...

A large mountain of a man in in flashy wizard robes enters the room and declares.
"Tim was informed you need help with books."
He then brings a large stone tome up to eye level with one muscular arm and begins to trace the symbols on the cover out with his other hand. The book has a small hole in the middle matching up with the pupil of a large eye on the underside of the tome. Otherwise, the book is decorated with various symbols and writing in broken Draconic.
"Tim knows much about books, lots about Taldor books."

Bringing Tim out for this on Burgler's request. Not sure how you handle improvised weapons Red, but he two-hands a giant stone "spellbook". Whatever you want to assign the damage die to let me know. The last two DMs ruled 2d6 and 1d10, so I ask at each table and run it how they want to.

Reading the gameplay into.....you want me to play Tim in a scenario with subtlety and not break things? lol

"Fast sword Rhyd. You have magic blade." The large man says while being healed then finally follows with. "Where Nat go?"

Tim fumbles around a bit before producing the wand.

Ignoring the question Tim looks down at his wound. "That thing stabbed me."

"Ouch!" Tim yells while reaching for his spellbook, only to find that the Aasimar has already dropped the foe.

Would be up with Wads. Moving to reflect if that is cool.

Moving to a new place this weekend. Posting will be spotty.

No problems. Hope everything is alright.

Tim assists his butler in searching the room.
Percpetion (Aid) 1d20 ⇒ 3
And...gets distracted by something else in the room, being generally unhelpful.

Yes. Tim will be leading the way.

"There is blood here, rug was here, now is gone. Stuff happened here." Tim says plainly. He then walks over to the vault door and attempts to open it. "Tim check vault for you."

Tim will attempt to assist with the search.
Perception (Aid) 1d20 ⇒ 18

"We gonna need pucks Wads. It's a she-lion."
Tim says matter-of-factly after listening to the woman's story.

Tim follows closely behind, keeping an eye out for any signs of murderous lions.

"Where did it go?" Tim asks, looking confused.

"Looks like lion killed him. Hope you bring pucks for Tim." The large man comments with a look at the scene.

"Where person die at?"
Tim makes himself heard from the back of the group.

I suppose Tim leads the way to the crime scene at this point.

"Mon.....done." Tim rolls the unfamiliar word off his tongue as he follows the others out of the office.

"She does not look magical to Tim."
Tim whispers loudly to Wadsworth while the Aasimar handles the negotiations.

Tim isn't exactly a conversationalist. I am trying to let the speakers move the plot until I can actually contribute. I would kind of just derail things right here.

Tim remains quiet for once, openly staring at the woman closely for any tricks she may be employing.

"That is not magic. That is tricks. Tim will go see if mistress uses magic or tricks."

"So... she's a witch with magics? Tim must see her magics and see if she is empress witch or mistress witch."

"Tim king. New guy say people come to see king. Tim like this idea."

After a slight pause, Tim stops in his tracks and responds to his companion. "You make good point." He then turns back to the messenger. "Tim wait here, you bring mistress."

Perception 1d20 ⇒ 4
"Yes, king and carnival mistress should meet. Tim could not find mistress last night."
Tim says with a grin while motioning the messenger to lead the way.
