I need to go and re-binge me some Stargate. They had some really good episodes. :)

Easily one of my top 5 all-time favorite shows.
Justin recalls that Bartlebeeze was actually an abishai
OK, I had to go back and google that.
They DO look like a Dragonborn-devilkin!
O_o

Yep, back when shows were good! :)
"Well that's hardly fair, everything goes well with garum sauce."
...and you can still buy the real deal.
Oddly enough, while Worcestershire sauce is a direct descendant of Roman garum, it's significantly more pungent due to the addition of spices. I've heard that the flavor is closer to dark soy sauce.
That’s why I love this game. An offhanded reference to garum provokes a wonderful discussion
I just minored in ancient history during my first bachelor's degree and remembered literally all of it, as opposed to the current location of my car keys or what I ate two hours ago.
Mphm,...
Snicker,...
BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
I luv this group, and this game. I really do! :)
Just sort of winging it, dont really know how 'message delivery system' works in Sigil. But Im presuming a fairly sherlock-esque method of boys will deliver the note for you as long as there is money waiting for them at the end?
And presuming that Renkar uses them enough that they wont try anything 'funny' on us?
I can't believe I haven;t thought of this before. Even writing about Justin hiking all over Sigil is exhausting! ;P
There’s actually a pretty robust message-running service that employs many of the street urchins of Sigil. It is based out of several temples of Hermes, and goes by the name the Lightning Messenger Guild. I’m certain Darroth would seek one out, or considering the gold you offered, he might run it there himself, as it’s only an hour away by foot
ROFL, of course its run by Hermes temple! :P
Thanks, in hindsight it's pretty obvious, but its hard to 'write in' about stuff I dont know! ;P
Thanks! :)
Oh Justin,...
Just what have you gotten yourself into THIS time?!?
;P
MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA!!

Okay quick side question for side quest stuff is it okay for other characters to follow/tag along just Merle is already kind of suspicious of Justin and I could see her trying to follow (Mostly to give a piece of her mind?)
Of course if it's preferd not to have that happen Merle could just be distracted by stuff at the silver rose.
Oh by all means! I would highly doubt that Justin can accomplish this task solo. If no one wants to go with him I was going to find some NPCs to go with. But PCs are fine.
Also, you all have three days to do whatever you please. You can make your own adventure in Sigil, or just say you nap and eat pie at the Copper Cauldron for three days.
MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA!!
YIPE!
*Pulls covers over head*

LOL! Oh yeah, THAT would be (another) classic!
Yeah, In- character, Justin didn't want to ask for help, (especially after his recent 'contract' fiasco) ;P
BUT,... I (and he) really don't want him trying this 'lil side trip' SOLO either! O_o
he can either beg, I mean ASK for help, or the overly curious ones can just barge in and ask 'so, where we goin'?' ;P
Just remember to bring your long johns if you are headed to the Paramental Plane of Ice. It’s so cold there that you could become a statue if you aren’t careful

Ooof, yeah,
Many scrolls of 'endure elements' and similar,...
In Merles case I'm thinking sneaking after him when he leaves?
LOL,
Careful, Justin might think merle has a thing for him,...
O_O
;P
Folks apologies, I have been busy these past few days. I’m going to be giving the PbPs some love today
Dude, No Worries,
By Now I just figure that your ALWAYS busy! :)
(Hopefully sometimes it's with stuff that you like & enjoy!!) ;P
Ooooooo,....
Justin needs to think about this, not talk his way into (more) trouble.
:)
Of course, knowing THIS group, they'll all be up for lil' adventure and 'damsel' rescue. (DON'T let her hear you call her that!)
But this isn't a Rose job, Justin will have to ask them.
The opportunities for RP in this scenario are gonna be fun,... :)
Will update tonight, been withdrawing from most games I participate in but I will remain in this one.

I’m glad you decided to stay. I’ve grown fond of Hamar

Cool! Yes, Hamar is such a good mix of Warrior and Wisdom.
(Like Conan, if he'd had Yoda as a teacher?) ;P
Yeah sorry about slowing down in the posting Pat,
Work,.... stuff. Yeah. ;P
With permission I'll do a bit where Justin asks for help with his side quest? :)
OK< so If I'm reading this right,
"Ubiquitous Wayfarer" is probably in Sigil, easy enough, Insert coin in specific door,...
Takes one to 'The False Castle' (Wherever that is) where you go to it's neighbor 'The Black Pyramid'. Go to washroom and stab yourself in heart with Ghost Dagger. (Maybe/hope those first two places are just Pubs?!?) ;P
Goes to 'Pyramid of the Dead', (wherever THAT is?) go to Top and jump off holding feather, (hopefully a group can all jump holding hands?) Hopefully THIS pyramid doesn't have too many undead. Or they'll let us pass as long as we dont touch nuthin'? O_o
Arrive at Peak of Arbental, NOW we get interesting. Have to survive the VERY cold, (Not sure if 1st lvl Endure elements will work for this?) and find the Tomb of the Ice King. Touch iron cube (makes sense now that I have some background info!) :) to go to,...
Avalas! Arrive in a cavern in one of the planes giant Cubes where the 'bad guys' hideout is. (At least we won't be on the SURFACE, playing ping-pong with other cubes!) But I suppose that our specific bad guys will not be the caverns only inhabitants(?!?)
After THAT it's just sneak in to the secret hideout, grab the girl, and walk out. Easy-peezy! :D
Yeah. Justin's asking for help.
STARTING with outright asking Memnon and Renkar what he'll need just to survive the trip! (He's walked himself into enough trouble for now, thank you!) ;P
THEN he's asking his friends if they would like to go on a little jaunt.
They can keep any loot they come across. (Not expecting a big haul, but high-quality bad-guys usually have something worth keeping) ;P Justin's just going to get his friend out.
So, how’s this:
If someone wants to come with, they say here, and then we move that action to the side quest thread.
Then, I will fill in the holes with some interesting NPCs (Maybe Michael could come, or the Black tears, or someone else someone knows)
In the main thread I will assume that the action only took three days (I can handwaive things and say time passed differently if things drag out. We can get it to work) and you all will be headed off to Erelhi-Cinlu (Otherwise known time is grognards as the Vault of the Drow). This I’ll get started up by the end of the week.
Oh , and one side quest will be shopping for those magical long Johns. You are correct, endure elements is like wearing a windbreaker during a polar vortex in Minnesota ....

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
THIS, is why I learned to stop drinking things while reading these posts! :) (Even non-alcoholic things)
And also, this is why I LUV these particular threads.
Thx Pat, I needed that laugh! (That image will be forever burned into my brain during this trek now) ;P
(FOr some reason, I read 'Polar Vortex' and keep seeing a polar BEAR in a windbreaker, during a snow storm of course.) ;P

Thanks Mate!
One good thing about Planescape, you can always say that any time difference is between the worlds we were traipsing across. :)
OK I'm mentally done for tonight. Sorry.
(I feel like I'm trying to write all clever and it's coming out like bad children's book) ;P
I think I'm a teensy stressed about work, got a lot going on in the next few days, (University classes start back next Monday) and I'M in 'charge' of safety/cleaning/ etc for our building.
(I'm 'Safety Coordinator' for our building, BUT that usually just involves filling out papers 3-4 times a year, and maybe an accident report if some dummy slips and falls. NOW it means that SC is in 'charge' of the safety vs Covid. I aint trained/paid enough for this!) ;P
Night all, see you tomorrow! :)
Ugh. That sounds terrible. Sorry they dumped that on you.
Speaking of dumped, my life has gotten more crazy (yet again). Wickedness never rests, and we paladins of the law are always swinging away at the pyramid scheme Kobolds.
I have a lot of ambitious storylines for the two threads, and I’m excited to go into the Fall with them.
Everyone- just like me I Know you are busy but it seems awfully quiet lately. Give me a shout if you are good to go and indicate if you want to go on Justin’s Hellride, or skip it and just move on to Erelhi-Cinlu
Thx for the kind words (I'M sorry they dumped it on me too!) ;P
But mostly its just not. knowing. what. will. happen. tomorrow.
Stupid rules change every day.
Just need to get my head back in the groove.
(Been warming up the next chapter(s) of the journal. THAT should help me!) :)
UGH! speaking of wicked, the pyramid-scheme kobolds sound,... diabolical.
(Do NOT Give Marconi any ideas! Wizard is in deep enough!) ;P
(Naw,... Marconi has more taste and style. He wouldn't be caught dead anywhere near a pyramid scheme.) ;P
Karrin will baby sit the magic users
Cool!
(Justin NEEDS baby-sitting. Clearly.) :(
OK:
Merle
Karrin
Justin
Anyone else?
If not, I will develop some friends to come with. Go get your supplies and we can reconvene on the side quest thread
Normally I would do a side quest but not right now.
I'm interested, but it's been extremely difficult trying to figure out reasons why my character would be interested.
LOL,
Spoken like a true Role player! :)

No one's ever called me that. You take that back.

Well, let’s see. Alessia is motivated by revenge. Perhaps by hunting undead she seeks clues to the whereabouts of Acererak?

That works, I'll write something up.
"Sooooo,... Anyone up for, what did Renkar call it? A 'Hellride'?"
Also, any time I hear the word "hellride," I can't not think of my man Wesley Willis.
I actually poached the term from Roger Zelazny
