Sorry to see you won't consider Google Slides, as it's useable everywhere (smart phones, work, etc.) But hey, I understand that some people have invested lots of money in Roll20 and want to see some use of it. Enjoy the game everyone! see you all on the boards in other adventures! Regards,
PS: @Blaydsong --> please remove me from the campaign under 'campaign settings'; thank you for running this so far and be safe out there!
Hi Blaydsong, I think I'm going to drop out of this game as I really, really don't like Roll20. It's enough to not make me want to check the boards for this game. Not at all your fault: it's me, not you! LOL! :) So feel free to recruit a replacement, or give me a shout if you switch to Google Slides. THAT, I will do! ;) Regards,
Uthred begins his song and moves forward, axe held high!
"♪ Don't curse our success, Junan! rejoice!!!! ACCEPT THE RAGE IN YOUR HEART!!!! ♪♫"
Uthred, still singing his rage song, charges the one in front of him.
Uthred, son of Uthred, blows a long note from his horn, and starts singing with a deep guttural voice!
The song quickens the blood, despite the long, slow notes... from atop his rock, the Ulfen warrior raises his greataxe and yells in the face of their foe!
I will move and start my raging song to open the battle!
"Shut up and tell me where I should plant my axe!" answers Uthred, following Nutar.
I don't mind if we start slow over next week... I'd rather stay in 'holiday mode' until after New Year's Day, and until Jan 5th or 6th... lol No rush from me: take as much time as you need to relax.
Messaging all games: I will be unable to post until Wed pm. Please bot me as needed. Thx!
"This is Old Man Dansby, a widower from Heldren who went missing not long ago. I'll take his bow and arrows for now, and someone should use that axe of his, as I recall it was from an exceptional forge from the Five Kings mountains and it's been in his family for generations. When we get back to Heldren, we should see to it that this is all returned to his family. In the meantime, we'll have to delay the funerals as his body is frozen, and the ground is rock hard, and a Skald funeral would give our position... I think we're getting close to the bastards who did this to him. Let's camouflage his body and we'll pick him up on the way back to Heldren later." Uthred looks at the man's wounds for clues...
...not sure how the man died, he weaves a minor spell of magic detection to see if dim magic is still on the corpse.
Uthred moves into flanking position and swings.
Uthred charges the creature with his greataxe!
Uthred follows as well, taking the same path as the others.
Uthred casts detect magic.
Uthred then casts mage hand and pushes the head of the snowman to the ground.
"Stop protecting those bandits, whoever you are! help us and join us! we'll make it worth your while believe me... those other ones who stole that fancy lady: they've got nothing compared to what we've been authorized to offer!!!"
"Wait! we should find a long branch on the forest floor and poke at this from a distance!"
"This is why warriors need a SKALD among them! to remind them that it is all for GLORY! everything else is drudgery and survival and boring nonsense!"
"Me? glory of course! I'll be making a song about how we saved that noble lady, and no one will be able to call me a liar: I got the three of you as witnesses. Hmm... maybe I'll work you into that song too, even Nutar, now that he's shown himself to be useful with these rabbits! BWAHAHAHAH!" Uthred slaps Nutar on the shoulder (perhaps a bit too hard for the taste of the thin human)
"Oriol: can you help me put this giant tent together? Junan: we'll need lots of wood overnight. You can borrow my axe if you can't find any on the ground. There..." says Uthred, handing Junan his axe as he begins to unfold the pavillion.
"Perhaps we should slow down, make camp, and make sure we're strong for the fight ahead. Also, is one of you a decent scout? wouldn't hurt to know a thing or two about what's coming while the rest of us setup camp..."
"Bah! wish I would have brought the brothers along... they're better than me with the bow..."
Uthred retrieves his arrow. "Well, that was... interesting. So far, in all these fights leading here, I seem to have a mobility problem. The damned snow is not as fun as I remember it when I was growing up as a lad... I'll need to find myself some snowshoes... and maybe a pack animal for the gear, so that I can run faster..."
Hitting the share button gives you a url link you can just post under your GM alias or at the top of the page here in lieu of your Roll20 link.
By the way, am I the only one who cannot see the map on Roll20? any chance we could switch to Google Slides or screen shots on Discord? I think I haven't seen the map since Tuesday now... I'm just trying to go by memory at this point.
For 'Enlarge' Person: "Any enlarged item that leaves an enlarged creature’s possession (including a projectile or thrown weapon) instantly returns to its normal size. This means that thrown and projectile weapons deal their normal damage." --> throwing axe: regular dmg; bow/crossbow/sling: regular dmg (i.e. NOT large dmg) Mind you, your STR is higher, and your DEX is lower... lol!
"Any reduced item that leaves the reduced creature’s possession (including a projectile or thrown weapon) instantly returns to its normal size. This means that thrown weapons deal their normal damage (projectiles deal damage based on the size of the weapon that fired them)." --> throwing axe: regular dmg; bow/crossbow/sling: small dmg. You'll be happy to know that it works differently for Enlarge Person... lol
"Ha hhhhhhha! I tricked you, fey! you've made me the most powerful archer who ever lived!!" Uthred draws his (small) shortbow and starts shooting with renewed aim, vigor and dexterity!
Uthred laughs, and maintains his viking song for his melee friends!
Uthred becomes small sized!
If Uthred cannot charge, he will instead double move.
Uthred, son of Uthred, blows a long note from his horn, and starts singing with a deep guttural voice!
The song quickens the blood, despite the long, slow notes... He draws his greataxe and yells in the face of the approaching foe!
"Hey there... whoever you are, you can show yourself. We mean no harm. We are here to recover a Lady that was abducted by bandits. There was also some strange winter creatures who helped the bandits with cold magic and hurt a big man really bad. He almost died. Can you help us?"
Uthred looks at the white stag doubtfully, trying to remember if any of the stories mentioned any of this...
"Same part of you that thinks I'm just muscle, I guess."
============
Once you've rolled initiative, just place the PCs in a list, in descending order of initiative. Take out the initiative numbers: all you need is the list, which already shows the order now. Then, every time someone takes damage, include it next to their name with a running total negative number. Put any conditions in a bracket next to their name. Example: Round 6 - Bold may go
In the example above, the blue ogre has received 48 dmg from the PCs, the red ogre has received 12 dmg; most PCs are ok, but Glaube and Mal have taken 16 and 35 dmg respectively. Mal is sickened, while Dora is healthy but currently blinded.
"Hey, Junan. You look like a porcupine. Let me take care of some of these arrows..." Uthred pulls out the arrows and cast a minor spell of healing.
Yeah I don't get it either.
Uthred recovers his arrows. "Bah! cheap Taldor arrows! when we get back to the village I'll give the fletcher an ear full..."
"Pretty colors..."
Uthred continues the guerilla tactics. He shoots the faerie with the blue ribbon then moves to the small tree closer to his chosen foe.
