Sorry for my slowness folks, I'm all caught up now :D

Same, for short posts. This week has been absolutely brutal.

My illness is actually COVID, so I understand. Currently quarantined in my basement, but well enough to indulge in distractions.

I think we're all facing a bit of that, it's all good. I like all of you and don't want anyone to feel burnt out trying to post when they don't have time, so take care of yourselves first and foremost! ^_^

Yuck on the COVID there! Stay hydrated, warm, and medicated as best you can. I caught it and it wasn't the worst but it roughed up my girlfriend something fierce.

Just a note Khalil, there are two owners, Mr. Witch, and Mr. Light =)

Let's say he... got confused? Maybe he asked any other guy with a hat, mistaking him for Khalil.

Me too haha! It's all good. Some random

walking by is like "what????" While Sammy pretends to have tiefling horns

I found this actual review on the interwebs of a peanut butter and onion sandwich:

Quote:
The blanketlike richness of the peanut butter tempered the HEY-WHAT’S-UP acridity of the onion, at least to some degree. But the aftertaste, as any sane person might expect, was a hot, unenjoyable, raw-onion burn, accompanied by an unpleasant heightened awareness of one’s sinuses.

XD Love writing like that, don't know why. For certain I need to use 'hey-what's-up' as an adjective more...both upper and lower case.

Same, I definitely sympathize with player pushback on DM hooks and the mental curly-Qs it can cause. Have no fear Karley will go along with anything when all is said and done. :)

No worries, it's certainly not and is taken as the reminder it is meant to be. I know that without that reminder my responses as Vashrin would likely be much more sympathetic than the dickish responses Willow's curse generates.

I'm glad it's not annoying! It can be difficult to remember (I think) because Willow doesn't bring up concerns often because of the way people react now haha

Yeah, it's certainly one of the most (of not the most) difficult ones to remember, since it's not blatantly there. It's also not really in your hands to play it, so most of the time I guess there's nothing you can do.

if anyone's open to it, we can chat in here about ideas that we might have about how to go about getting the owners' attention to keep things from dragging out too long - these plans can go a long time even with irl d&d :P

lol...yep went right over my head.

DM, what kind of security response have W&K seen over the years? What would we guess might happen if we just started sabotaging everything or committing arson everywhere? Because what Vash said about the Mood Rod makes sense.

Or alternatively we could try and put ourselves in Witch and Light's good graces by seeing what needs to be done like retrieving the run away kid for Dira.

I was thinking the same thing. Mood rod could be good especially since Karley and Willow would likely know of ways to impact it!

I should have refreshed before I initially posted, lol. Just saw Vash's post. I think both are good options, and I would tend towards going the good graces route - finding Star, doing something for Witch and Light. Willow's performance instructor might have a way for us to get them to notice us too?

Yeah uh...just kidding about the arson/sabotage thing, uhhaha...still curious about the security though. :)
1 person marked this as a favorite.

If something major were to go down, most of the witchlight hands are at least somewhat trained in restraining folks, or even fighting. But most security is seen to buy a bugbear naked Burly. Burly's brother, Hurley, disappeared a couple years ago, though he helped with security before that. There is also a clown named Thaco (yep.) who minds the staff area.

Would it be possible to gain enough allies among the other carnival workers to convince Witch and Light to see us? This might be similar to creating a positive mood. Maybe if we can do enough to help others, then they will help us?

Gaining allies seems like the way to go if we're all interested in a more RP-heavy campaign as opposed to combat - stealing, etc. has a lot of ways things can go wrong (and I know several folks cited that as why they're interested).

We can ask around and see what major issues there are to tackle. Star would be a big one! Interesting that Star disappeared and Burly's brother Hurley also disappeared. Wonder if there's something to several disappearances that we could look into.

I agree with Willow. While I'm not opposed to combat, and I fully expect there to be some as some of the choices I expect we'd have to make to avoid certain combats are simply choices a number of the characters would not make.

That being said, this is one of those times we can and should roleplay vs chosing violence. (In my opinion, anyway.)

So to answer Sammy's question, go the route of Abel, even if the old White Wolf/World of Darkness player/storyteller says chose Caine. ;)

We definitely need an NPC named 'Thaco' in our lives.

Hopefully when we start probing around about problems to heroically solve we'll get more details about the pig-faced/moon-faced creatures. I can't help feel like they are a big piece of the puzzle...ostensibly responsible for all the negative things about the carnival. Have we ever asked anyone directly about them?

We haven't at all. I don't even think any of us have talked about it in character. Nuruk and Willow's bond over their shared experience is entirely unspoken!

Thac0 Bell is canon now.

Karley tried to mention it a few times recently, but was probably misunderstood/ignored because of the curse. I'll be more forceful/direct with the next NPC.

Hey folks! Sorry for the quietness as of late; moving and stuff has been a hassle. I had a friend just to do some chiropractic stuff and something went really wrong, so now my ribs are sharp points of pain. Sitting sucks majorly and I have to do it enough for my work.

With that being said, I'm not giving up the game. This one is far too fun and I'm enjoying it immensely. I'm about to head out on a mini-vacation this weekend so I would like to be botted for, at most, till next weekend. It'll let me heal, get all of my packing done, and I'll hopefully be healed and refreshed to come back and types lots.

I may come back earlier than next Friday if things have turned out really well. I apologize for the inconvenience but I'll be back with you all shortly :)

Deja vu ;) Glad to hear from you, I will pilot Nuruk until you're back. Have fun!

I hope things settle for you!

I've been slow in responding because I've been super busy still catching up from being out of work with covid. Things are settling out now, though!

So, boring mechanics question, but did we decide on how to handle the auto-surge? Now that she used Tides RAW you can have me roll for surge anytime I cast a 1st+ sorc spell, and I have a compelling reason to do so (to get Tides back). I've allowed wild mages to just handle it on their next cast and it worked fine.

That sounds fine, handling it on your next cast =)

@DM Fern - For the damaged name plates for the unicorns, how are the legible letters arranged (i.e. Is is scratch out MS or is it M - scratch out - S, or something different?). Similar questions for the other unicorn name plates.

The scratched out names look like:
B_____
F_____
M____S
___N__

With the lines as the scratched out portions.

Nevermind, after reading Khalil's post it's clear. Reading comprehension is a good thing.

Sorry for not posting yesterday, got super busy!

If people are drawing an IRL blank on the last name, roll and INT check to see if your character would have a better guess =) I don't want to drag the riddle out to the point of not being fun -- I'll wait until a couple other folks have time to toss in a guess or a roll before posting.
