Sorry to hear this, I enjoyed your Gming and the other players. I hope things get better for you.

Tomas moves to where he can cover the 'slaves' for any treachery. Not sure if where the chains lead mean that the old dwarf is one of them?
You can have them Rau. Better to have two mobile people.
Ah yes, I forgot that. Tomas took Trap spotter. When he gets within 10' of a trap a perception check is rolled by the GM.

Leveled up, will have it up shortly.
Tomas slumps to the ground.
Tomas will join Rau in targeting the purple Drow.
Sorry, it's been one of those weeks from hell for me. Can't update at the moment, I hope to get some free time tomorrow.
Tomas steps to one side to clear the entrance.
Tomas joins Rau in slipping forward, hoping to scout out what is ahead of them.
"Agreed!" Tomas nods fervently, his face pale and his hands clenched on his bow. A killing rage barely held in check for the moment as his eyes look at the children.
Tomas winces, both at a poor shot and the pain caused by the scream of the shrieker.
Tomas has studied the Shrieker and made it his target.
Barely connecting with the mushroom he grimaced. "Shoot quickly!" He hissed.
"Yes, but it has to be killed instantly otherwise it screams. So two of us on each of them should do it." Tomas says, drawing his longbow and aiming carefully.
Tomas holds his hand up to stop everyone from advancing, indicating the two mushrooms he is sure are Shriekers. "Any light or movement close to them will trigger a scream that can be heard for miles." He whispers a warning.
When Thorek goes in Tomas sighs and follows behind him.
Looking around for any dangers.
Volkar's words and watching Thorek burrow through what seemed to be solid stone allowed Tomas to finally see through the illusion.
Tomas look around blankly, not understanding what hole Thorek was talking about?
Sorry for my silence, a family matter has had me away from home the last few days. Things are settling and I"ll be back to regular posting tomorrow.
Tomas tries to see what is happening in the town centre, but can't make out much.
Having been made aware of someone in a cell Tomas moved over to the lock.
"There you go."
Tomas quickly scans the area outside the building to see if they've been noticed? He shuts the door and stands ready if it's clear.
Grumbling at missing out on naptime Tomas gets to his feet and joins Rau in slipping closer.
Meanwhile outside in the woods Rau & Tomas are taking turns. One watches while the other naps.
Send up a smoke signal!
Still alive, just not very well. It's keeping me tired and aching, with a nasty cough. Drops away until I get optimistic, then slams me back down again. I hope to resume posting over the weekend, thanks for your patience. But please bot me as needed.
Sorry for going missing. I picked up a nasty cold from somewhere on Sunday and have been bedridden since then. It might be a day or two more before things get back to normal.
Tomas watched intently, his bow out and ready, it looked as if diplomacy was on the verge of failure and he prepared to shoot the moment it did so.
"Aye, cutting down dupes isn't a good way to get this land peaceful again." Tomas agrees with Volkar. "Maybe have you go in as lost travelers and me and Rau hide and watch. Be ready to back you up"
Once out of sight and hearing Tomas picks up the pace, hurrying back to the others to report what they had seen, and their impressions of what was going on. "I've got a bad feeling that could be the kids Da, getting punished for their escape?"
GM & Rau. (Also hopefully the last): Tomas swallows his anger and nods, withdrawing with Rau.
GM & Rau: Tomas nods his agreement with Rau's plan. Keeping a gap between himself and the Inquisitor of about 20' for more chance to look around, and in case one of them was spotted.
DM: Any signs of movement outside the buildings? Is the only source of smoke coming from the farmhouse?
Tomas nods, slipping back to his old scouting role almost automatically.
Slipping into the cover of the undergrowth and ghosting forward.
Tomas pauses, his nose wrinkling from that unpleasantly familiar smell. He tells the others quietly. "Someones got a fire going, and from the smell of it there's someone being burned in it!"
"It does sound like some form of curse or ward placed on the whole area?" Tomas agrees, his knowledge of magic not very deep.
Tomas leaves when the results of the question are sadly the same. "Do you think there's one of those things hiding around the fort?" He asks the others. Wondering why just mentioning the name draws such responses? "And why are they so desperate to have their name never heard?"
Tomas listens carefully, asking a few questions regarding any landmarks the pair might have seen as they traveled.
Sounds like a good plan.
It's been happening to me a lot. As Volkar says, if it shows you the top of the page scroll down and hit refresh until your post shows up.
Tomas blinked in surprise at Tynan's reaction to Thorek's words. He couldn't see what had set the man off? "What was it he said that you find an insult?" He asks politely, hoping to buy some time and keep the man talking.
Tomas has had experiences with unpleasant commanders before, he stays quiet and observes the reactions f the men around Uller. 'All the credit and none of the blame.' He thinks to himself cynically. He reads the proffered page over Thorek's shoulder.
Things are improving for me and I hope to be back posting in games in a day or two. I've been updating the games I run as I feel those are my first responsibility. Hope your feeling better soon Atorhal.
Sorry for being so quiet. My health is bad at the moment. Please bot me as needed.
Having lived through a war Tomas picks up on Celea's reasons for being so uneasy. He confines himself to polite responses and generalities if he speaks to her.
Tomas still believes in eating and sleeping when possible, you never know when it might not be? He joins Rau in heading to the kitchen. |
