Dungeon Master S's Destiny of the Sands Trilogy (CORE)

[Kohinoor an-Gul]

Am I not in this combat? Just curious, since I'm not on the initiative order.

[Narad, Rogue]

Folks: I'm gearing up for a small, regional convention this weekend. I'll be away starting tomorrow (Thursday, Oct 1) and returning very late on Sunday (Oct 4). I'll probably only be able to post once or twice a day starting then. Please feel free to bot me, if needed.

[Flyndal Danwrick]

I’m heading out to a baseball game; Be gone a while. Bot me as needed.

[Desh Greyskin]

I'm out of town through tomorrow. Back online Monday morning. Bot me as needed.

[Dungeon Master S]

My posting may be limited until about 2200 EST, just a heads up. I know we're close to the end, so I'll check if I can. Once we DO finish, I'll give you guys a day or so after getting chronicles out before starting part II.

[Dungeon Master S]

Let me know if you have any specific requests for your chronicle. I tend to put my trust in the players. I therefore initial them and sign them, but leave you to fill in the blanks. I know that there are GMs who are not okay with this. So if you need one with EVERYTHING filled out for you, let me know.

Similarly, if you need a specific check on a Faction card, it's the honor system, but if you have a stickler GM, let me know and I'll okay it.

Awesome job guys, on to part 2!

[Desh Greyskin]

I may or may not have time to post this weekend. I'l just have to see.

out of curiosity, what's the purchasing cap on Eto? I"ve been saving up for a mithral breastplate. On the off-chance that I've actually gotten enough scraped together at the end of this Scenario, would it be available here? Or would I need to find a bigger city?

[Chris Marsh]

It's a bit wonky, but your purchasing cap when between scenarios is set only by your Fame.

It's been a blast running with you guys, but with my new job taking up so much of my time and energy (and this game doing most of its heavy lifting during my work hours), it's not realistic for me to keep running with you. I think I'm going to drop from Part Two, especially if you can find a replacement cleric. If not, I suppose I could stick around and keep doing what I'm doing, but it's really been hard for me to even know what's going on, much less contribute in any meaningful way to the game.

[Flyndal Danwrick]

Bummer, Koh. We’ll hopefully run into you later down the road.

[Garrett Goodleaf]

Understandable Kohi. I've had funny with you while we were together! Good luck with everything.

[Chris Marsh]

Good luck, and I completely empathize. That being said, you're always welcomed back. Unless you guys have someone in mind, we can run with 5.

[Kohinoor an-Gul]

Thanks for the support. It's just been overwhelming to come back to 25 or 26 posts in this game, and I'd rather not hold you guys back. Good luck with the rest of it, and maybe we'll see each other in a different game.

[Dungeon Master S]

Can you guys PM me your email addresses so I can complete reporting? Thank you!

[Narad, Rogue]

Thanks for playing with us, Kohinoor. :)

[Desh Greyskin]

I understand, Kohinoor, but I hate to see you go. I've enjoyed gaming alongside you. If your schedule opens up, you should totally check back in.

As for another player, I could go either way. Garrett will have to take up the slack on healing if we don't get another Cleric, so I leave that up to him. Not to mention the oomph she gave us against undead.

[Cëanel Firdhanor]

I agree--I would hate to see you go, Kohi. How am I going to stand being among all these scruffy martial types without you? Best of luck with your new job and life balancing!

[Kohinoor an-Gul]

*Sigh*

I'll try to stick it out. Maybe I can find a few minutes during my lunch break to run up a post or something so I feel less left behind. I'll give one more scenario a try, I guess.

[Dungeon Master S]

I can certainly appreciate how hard it is when the going gets rough. Honestly I think the second part will be easier as the plot is gentler to read through.

Chronicles are coming, but I'm still missing some emails for reporting.

[Cëanel Firdhanor]

I'll be out today and part of tomorrow, so just have Kohi bot me! Off to make some Survival checks...

[Flyndal Danwrick]

LOL – We’re really not trying to guilt you into playing, if you don’t have time, Koh. We’ve just enjoyed having you with us.

[Kohinoor an-Gul]

I'm not being guilted into playing, I just want to try to make this work. I've enjoyed playing with you guys quite a bit.

[Desh Greyskin]

Hey, I certainly won't complain if you stick it out, Kohinoor (and am fine if you just can't post as often). Just make the call that's right for you, man.

Also, Desh's chronicle is applied. :)

+1 mithral breastplate GOOOOO!

[Cëanel Firdhanor]

Gonna buy up some spell learnin'.

Gust of Wind...

Spellcraft: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (5) + 13 = 18

Ok, that's added. I already bought the scroll for that.

See Invisibility (from Chronicle)

Spellcraft: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (13) + 13 = 26

Got that one as well. (I am deducting only the 40 gp for this one)

Invisibility (from Chronicle)

Spellcraft: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (4) + 13 = 17

Whew, made it on the opposition school, just barely. That would take two slots if I prep it, but I know it. 40 gp.

Shield...(25 gp scroll)
Spellcraft: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (10) + 13 = 23

Done...another 10 gp (I hope no one is actually reading all this...)

Ok, I'm exhausted. :P Done. I'll have an updated character sheet in a bit.

[Dungeon Master S]

I have to redo the character sheets for any Exchange or Scarab Sage PCs. I'll try to get it to you ASAP.

[Narad, Rogue]

Do you want us to roll day job checks for part 2? Or should we wait till later?

[Chris Marsh]

You can roll any time for those in this thread.

[Flyndal Danwrick]

Sorry for the weekend absence, folks. I was taking care of a sick wife and kid.

[Desh Greyskin]

... plus, ya know ... weekend.

I didn't know your little clan was sick, man. That sucks. Hope they get better quickly.

[Dungeon Master S]

Never need to apologize for Real Life coming first! Hope all is well now.

[Flyndal Danwrick]

Yeah, we just got hit with a stomach bug. All is well, thanks.

[Desh Greyskin]

Sorry for my absence. Busy days. I'll post tomorrow.

[Chris Marsh]

Hey guys, I got pulled in to teach some extra classes tonight. I won't be posting until 9 ish EST.

[Garrett Goodleaf]

Holy cow! I have a busy weekend and come back to 42 posts! Sorry folks, I just wasn't able to get in and make a post.

[Desh Greyskin]

I'm about to have a busy weekend and then will be traveling for business through Wednesday. I'l check in if I can, but don't wait on me. Bot me as necessary.

[Dungeon Master S]

We'll be as Desh-like as possible. Bon voyage!

[Flyndal Danwrick]

Yup. Me too. I will be out of town between 11/5 and 11/13. My posting will be limited to a few hours in the evenings (-6 GMT). GMPC me as necessary on those dates. I will check in when I can.

[Narad, Rogue]

Going to a convention this weekend. My posting will be limited.

[Cëanel Firdhanor]

I'm out camping; back Sunday evening. Bot me as needed!

[Garrett Goodleaf]

Am I glad I made sure to point some points into a usage Perform skill for Countersong! I am actually quite surprised that Orator isn't consider a usage skill for that ability. And here I was beginning to wish I had whipped up a paladin instead of a bard... how silly of me!

[Dungeon Master S]

When countersong matters it's a big deal. Well played. Thankfully once the babbling is resisted, you're immune for 24 hours!

[Garrett Goodleaf]

Well thank goodness for that! I agree that Countersong is something that is not used very often, but when you need it... boy do you miss not having it.

I will switch over to Inspire Courage next round, folks.

Also, I just noticed that I never updated my character sheet or Chronicles after Destiny Part 1. Terrible sorry for that... Working on that new.

[Desh Greyskin]

No freaking kidding on the Countersong. That may be the definition of a clutch decision.

MVP goes to Garrett on this one (assuming we still all survive/win)

[Cëanel Firdhanor]

Agreed--first time I've seen it used, and boy did we need it!

[Dungeon Master S]

Narad: 1d20 ⇒ 8
Garrett: 1d20 ⇒ 6

[Desh Greyskin]

Desh Dayjob (Part 2): Profession (Trapper): 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (14) + 6 = 20

... 20g

[Narad, Rogue]

Profession Merchant: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (11) + 9 = 20

[Desh Greyskin]

Desh is more or less updated. (I think more, but I've had to do it quickly, so details may be incorrect).

Secondarily, it looks like we'll be getting to play as Mythic in this upcoming romp (WOOT!). Should we go ahead and work through the mechanics of that? Or is it supposed to happen more organically than that?

If we can work ahead, can awe get details of the mythic stuff to apply? Tier and whatnot?

[Garrett Goodleaf]

Huh... so I could view the folder with our sheets in them last night on my phone, but now I'm getting a message that folder no longer exists.
