Poles would be easiest and fastest to manufacture. And handy for working the raft if the river is no more than 3 or 4 feet deep. Paddles would be best for manuvering if the river is deep or fast, but could easily take hours to hew a proper one. Forked branches with cloaks cut and tied in the forks might be a quick improv.

A rudder is no good unless we have some speed relative to the water, unlikely with the raft. What we would need is a sweep, a 7 or 8' paddle.

Guys?

Water is pretty deep with the river running engorged from the rain. 6-10 feet average, deeper in some spots. Paddles would probably be better but long poles (15' or so) aren't out of the question for usage.

Don't we have a couple hides? Could lash those to forked sticks for paddles.


Male Ettin Expert 4/Wizard 4/Giant 5

we do have some hides
did we let the goblin go, or kill him
or we going to drag him with us?
could make a good anchor

I don't think goblin hide is tough enough.

Seriously, we didn't say anything about it. I guess we left him tied up on the floor.

It was a kobold, and Fakey might be able to retcon it so that Keegan is dragging him along with the party.

Surely we could get a better mascot than this treacherous little sneak kobald. Maybe we could hang him off the side of the raft like an outboard motor.

I thought you guys ended his life. If not you could be dragging him along but it's gonna slow you down considerably, probably add a day or two of travel time.....

I don't think we ever actually decided to kill him.

Will it rain everyday? Would he make a good outboard? I wanna get home.


Guys, I'll be out of touch for the weekend starting Friday afternoon. See you Tuesday. NPC Effan as required.

That was a funny bit in Nemo. I also really dug the turtles.

The lizardmen are cool. We can assume the sss's if you wish to quit typing them.

O:) glad y'all got the reference :) I enjoyed the RP Fakey, though I missed it mostly as I was submitting to the PF open call...

for the river trip, I am going to change my spells to CLW, Speak w/animals, summon critter 1 and summon critter 1. H hopes to find some otters or similar river folk to help through some of the tougher river spots. Unless he can find a whale...

Nice work on our return, Fakey, especially Keegan's woman, but I think Faldor's joke on Keegan has taken a nasty twist. DO we really want him to breed?

higher ed, and my students leave on the 20th--meaning 20-24 is a crunch time. I meant merely that I get into the holiday spirit starting with Halloween O:)

I'd be very happy to. Don't know how much use I would be. But, I'd be very happy to. I would love to give it a go myself, but writing is a torturously (SP?) slow process for me and December is not a good month for big projects. Editing, I'm quick and fairly brutal. I wish they would start RPGS in March.

I am just plain swamped with one kid sick and the other still to shuttle back and forth to school. I've been in a bit of a funk also with holidays and bills and whatnot but I am pulling through and refocusing. Gaming always gets me through. So I am gonna be working on wrapping up individual lines and then have a final wrap-up for the group before preparing to launch into the next part of the Path.

I was thinking of either running a modified(beefed up and more of a continuation of our current story) Crown of the Kobold King and then into some Gamemastery Modules after that to cobble together a path, or starting with something else.
Any preferences guys?

Kobold King has my vote, and whatever after that is cool by me. O:) Get Well Soon (and to the little fakey too).


Cookie Jar Pilferer 9 ; Dimensional Explorer 4

Fakey, Sorry to hear about your kid. Hope he or she gets well soon. Don't sweat DMing, if you want to take a break over the holidays do it. I've been thinking about putting my games in the freezer til New Years. There's just too much to do.

In terms of the future for the game, I've got no preferences. I don't know any of the modules and if you want to go homebrew that's cool too.


Male Troll Expert 3, Warrior 1

Best wishes to a fast clean bill of health to your child, sick kids never make gaming easy.

As for ongoing game I have no preference either. Trying to figure if I want to stick with Faldor or not though.

Anybody have any questions about the treasures found during the adventure? I am unsure as to whether I IDed the stuff or not, let me know if there are any concerns.
Also once I get the individual wrap-ups done the final wrap-up at the tavern will occur and payments will be given from Laural and I will figure out what Bossman Teedum pays Keegan and Raph for hazard pay(He's a dick so it will be pretty pathetic).


Male Ettin Expert 4/Wizard 4/Giant 5

I do agree with group on everything so far, and if you are going to add a few new players, it would be great. I will miss Raph, the clean backstaber, i did like how he was played. If you can find a rogue it would be great, as with a back up hitter or three. I found the Jaden was in almost all close combat, and i do not want to take all the fun away from the rest of the group. I have loved the over all play dinamics of this group, and how they have all fell into little nice round holes.

That being said, we had many of our number laying on the ground in the "battle of the cookware", and it was down to Keegan and Jaden, and even then we need alot of big rolls to do any damage. So a god speaking warior would be a big help too. I know asking alot and that is only if we find a few people ready to jump into the game. I am up for new people joining with us, and i so want to keep this story going.


Cookie Jar Pilferer 9 ; Dimensional Explorer 4

Terry, nice catch on the eldest tree. I'd forgotten that, and how tempting it might be to a lumberjack.

After a couple quiet days in town, Effan should have his work caught up and be ready to lay the fey to rest. Fakey, is there anyone in town who might know about such stuff?

As for adding folks, I'm good with that. I will miss Raph though.
