Res looks up from his investigation of the doors and catches a glimpse of Tybalt handing a cup back to a hooded figure. He calls out to Tybalt, "My man, this is no time for taking a drinking break. We have work to do. Who is your friend there?"

BTW - it's the end of an era; I canceled my remaining Subscriptions. No fancy tag by name anymore. I have enough content to keep me busy for years

As a reminder - you’re here to retrieve water from a well in the courtyard.

Ooops - I completely forgot that - thanks for the reminder

I'm ready to move on; I've prepared my spells for the haunted abbey

I know it's early. Merry Christmas, everyone! I hope you all have a joyful holiday season. I am thankful that we are back together for this campaign!

Res shakes his head and mutters, "Forgive them, Gorum, they have not learned how to celebrate a good fight and victory; give me time, they will learn." Aloud, he says, "As you will, we let's go back to rest."

Finally, the gear is complete.

From Dr. Savarre's chest
* Were Slayer Chainmail (3,350 gp) - expanded to cover shapechangers
* Wand of Cure Light Wounds with 43 charges (645 gp)
* 5 gp tucked into the armor

From Shopping in town
- Sold Scale Mail and MW Greatsword (200 gp)
+ Purchased a cloak of resistance +1 (1,500 gp)

That nifty swarmbane clasp just cried out for a matching cloak :-)

Headband of vast intelligence: Sell. (Pat, would your doctor want this? We could sell it to him for half - i.e., the normal sale price for an item - and both he and the party would benefit).

That’s fair. He doesn’t have any cash r/n so it’ll have to be an IOU

Unacceptable - what if you die before we can collect? LOL

Hey, I'm back and ready to roll. I will catch up on the recent posts and jump in.

Will Save: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17
knowledge(religion): 1d2 + 10 ⇒ (1) + 10 = 11

Res focuses all of his attention on the black figure, desperately trying to figure out what it is but to no avail. "What is it? What is it? By Gorum I should be able to recognize this monster," he mumbles to himself. He continues to stare as the creature's identity eludes him.

Suddenly realizing the threat they face, he casts communal protection from evil for everyone.

Acorn and I will be camping in Yellowstone soon. Acorn is leaving on 7/12 and I am leaving on 7/14. I'm returning 7/24 and Acorn is a few days later. Most likely we will have no internet access while camping. Please DMpc us to keep things moving. Thanks

TORDEK!

Long time no post, Freehold! How's the big city treating you? Ready for winter yet?

I hope all is well with you seasoned FaWtLies as well as the new bunch since I last checked in.

Hey! It's a new-old FaWtLie!

Is there any word for that? Or is that going to have to be the word(s) we use to describe that?

Once a FaWtLie always a FaWtLy. That was always the beauty of this thread, the ability to pop in and out and pick up as if nothing happened.

Hello All! I have finally ventured out of the PBP corner of Paizo and decided to post around a bit. I hope all is well with ya'll. Feeling a little nostalgic for the old posting days.

Finally working my way through the Dark Tower series on Audible. (I knew that hour commute each way would come in handy some day.) 6 books down, and one to go (not counting the 8th book that came out after the end). Still undecided if I will be watching the movie once I've completed the series.

Happy Independence Day Eve AKA July 3rd to all the US FaWtLies. Long time (12,000+) posts since my last visit. Still alive, and looking forward to Starfinder.

I hope all is well with you seasoned FaWtLies as well as the new bunch since I last checked in.

Hopefully things will calm down at work after this week. I should be able to return to normal posting next week.

Hope tomorrow is a beautiful day, and congratulations in advance! So excited for you. :)

Whew! Worried for a moment that the great OTD closing of 2016 included FAWTL. Glad to see it is stilll wheezing along.

Back in the USA! I see we've got some familiar faces joining us. Hurray! One last trip, GENCON and then my traveling may slow down for a short time.

Greetings from the Florida Keys! Cudjoe Key to be exact. Enjoying the last full day of vacation before we pack up and make the long drive back to Texas.

Just thought I'd pop in say hi to all of my fawlty buddies and let you know I'm still alive.

Hey all, how have you been for the last 85,000 or so posts?

Apologies for my unexplained absence, thanks to those who tried to reach out.

MOTHMAN! Welcome back! You have been severely missed. I hope you are well.

Quick update on me since aeglos asked.

1) I'm doing fine.
2) GenCon 2016 badges purchased and hotel procured. Indy here I come.
3) I've traded insane work hours for insane travel. Just returned from 10 days in China. That was fun, educational, and tiring.
4) Fortunately, we are in a hiring mode at work so I've gotten some help which has given me a little more time. Therefore, more time to post!

Good to be back.

I'll see you at GenCon, assuming you play some PFS again. We'll have to get together for lunch or dinner otherwise. :)

Yes, we will definitely get together. This time Acorn's girl friend will be joining us. PFS planning has already begun. :-D

Do you still run your own consulting practice?

consulting went into hiatus once I joined this company full time. I still keep my company active just in case however.

Edit. Oops, it's a bit drafty all of a sudden

Happy belated birthday Lynora!

Ready Player One narrated by Wil Wheaton has made my long commute much more enjoyable. I'll be sorry when the book is finished. Currently on chapter 14.

I received this book as a CHristmas present from my (not so) little brother. I am currently enjoying it.\having only recently discovered the joys of audiobooks, I cannot wait to try Wil Wheaton reading this one! Sounds great!

PS- as a graduate of HS in the 80's this book has been bringing back memories I hadn't even realized I had! :)
(Or had forgotten) ;P

Same here. I can't tell if I love the story for the nostalgia factor or the story itself. In the end, I guess it doesn't matter. I'm gonna enjoy it for whatever reason.

113 posts is too many to read now: sorry.

Regardless, as an FYI I'm not going to be around for a few days. While FAWTL is not my keeper, I talk and favorite a enough that it could seem weird. Might be long, might not be.

Family emergency, though not my wife, self, or kids. God bless you guys.

hope everything resolves itself favorably

Is it just me, or do others think thread titles are beginning to get too long as well?

Just checked - I'm a 3rd generation FaWtL poster. Can't believe over 5 years have passed.

Vacation day for me today. Working on the several projects at home that stacked up over the summer.

Is it like this light?

Can't tell, it's too bright. But I'm not waiting to see if it begins to change color.

Tired, but good. Lots of 7 day weeks which is a bit exhausting with a 137 mile round trip commute. Fortunately, my subaru is getting 32+ mpg and gas prices are low.

Emerges back into the light.

My great 24 inch valve project has come to a successful albeit late conclusion. I can now rejoin my regularly scheduled life.

But I'm not reading the 4,952 messages I missed. Hope you all have had fun in my absence

Just another undead. Tough to keep a fresh look when you're not breathing, ya know?

they have spells for that now :-) Gentle Repose and Prestidigitation keeps a person smelling as fresh as the Irish Hills :-)

Sihedron medallion does the trick as well. And who doesn't want to give a runelord a window into the world.

I suddenly feel very under dressed.

False alarm, it was just someone asking me to hold his place in line while he went out to grab a snack.

So there I am, standing in line to see Pharasma, when I get a tap on the shoulder....

Just watched the preview of fallout 4 and downloaded fallout shelter for my ipad. I think it's finally time to give fallout 3 a run through.

I resolved yesterday that today was the day I was going to start eating better.

In celebration, I decided to support my local bakery by eating a cream puff and an eclair.

And tonight FHDM and I are going to a place that specializes in macaroni and cheese.

Today is a lost cause. I will try again tomorrow.

Good luck! My wife and I started yesterday as well. An app that has helped me in the past is My Fitness Pal.

Here is the latest picture a few hours later. The waters have receded.

About 7 hours later, the water has drained away.

For those not on facebook:

Here is a picture taken outside of my office this morning. Fortunately, I was safe and dry 67 miles to the north.

My office surrounded by water. May 26, 2015

As long as you and yours are okay.

Any word from AZ? Lpm and family?

AZ made it to work. He fortunately works just outside of the loop. Lady LPM posted that she was able to stay home safe and dry.

Heavy rain and flooding in the Houston area. My office is closed as a result - but I am working from home. At least I get to avoid the long drive and headaches due to the rain today.

Hope everyone in the US had a great holiday.

Morning, all. What'd I miss?

you've missed tons. How are you doing? great to see you back. I was wondering what ever happened to you.

Fun fact: There are 7,422 threads in the off topic discussion forum. Subtract the first 100,000 posts, and Deep 6 FaWtL still beats all but 6 of them. And 5 of those 6 are the preceding FaWtL threads.

American Football News: we had our annual draft, people were drafted, I'm not sure who.... Jon Bon Jovi probably, I do know that both the Jets and Browns probably got favorable grades, of course that won't help them win any games, as they suck in perpetuity :-)

Please don't rub it in with Cleveland. I've endured 48 futile years waiting for a Cleveland championship of any kind.

Maybe the Cava- nope, lost the first game to the Bulls and k-love is out.
