You mentioned something out of character about smuggling Sirrot to see his mother and sister for some unstated reason. Is that still a plan?

Yes.  Sirrot is planning to go see his mother and sister on Zanbar Kelvyn.  That's the day after the meeting with Dunmeal.

Wow!  Our heroes have really had a lot of adventures.  Even just summarizing the story is taking a while.  I'm through chapter 7 so far.  Just 3 more chapters to get up to the present.

My work have decided to banish RPOL from its list of appropriate sites so I am having diffficulty getting online with a decent keyboard to provide an update. Will chase up a solution tonight and get posting again tomorrow.

Public Libraries help.

Man, it's been a long time since I've run a battle in this game!  I'm super rusty.  Please forgive me.


One quick note on killing.  These opponents are not monsters.

In your culture killing humans draws some pretty substantial repercussions.  First off there's a heavy wereguild paid to the clan that lost a member.  Then the killer's own clan elder can lay down further punishment up to and including execution depending on circumstances.  You imagine that dwarves are at least as harsh if one of their number is killed.  So be careful.  That said, dwarves are very tough and do not die easily and can recover from wounds that would surely be fatal to humans.  You probably don't need to pull your punches, just don't go overboard.

I take it the yellow background are PCs?

18:51, Today: Mord rolled 17 using 1d20+3.  Init.
For when it matters.

In reply to Fritzholm (msg # 243):

I assume that if the dwarves are using lethal methods to bring down Holly and company, even Dwarven Law recognizes the right to violence in self-defense.

In reply to Sirrot (msg # 244):

Yellow background are non-combatant dwarves.  Innocent bystanders.

Just a heads up.  Looks like we lost Adiel.

Yes, I am dropping out, I am just too impatient for a slower pace game.

Good Luck to all of you.

I'm fine with Sirrot playing Ragnar for the current fight :)

Who/what is Ragnar? A cohort?

Game mechanics - Ragnar is one of Sunna's followers.

Storywise - Ragnar is a member of the Triplefang clan who has also spent time with the enigmatic talking fox Reynard.  When the party's scout and tracker Glumr left the group after being unable to sign The Tome of Legends, Sunna recruited Ragnar.

Storywise- why was Glumr unable to sign?

Nobody knows.  Magic sure is fickle.

I'm waiting on Holly's revised round 1 action.

Where is Mord the Mighty when someone (actually) needs him?

Sadly waiting for the dramatic entrance.

Almost like the dwarves were following us... waiting for an opportunity when he was away...

And Mord the Mighty is always needed, nod.

*nudges Holly*

Please post a replacement action for Call Lightning.  You took too much damage that round to even attempt to cast a spell.

Sorry. Will do.

Why am I getting the feel iui mg it was MOST UNWISE to split the party in an unfriendly  town?

Are there solid trunks or tables under the awning where Ragnar is? In a fight I look for every advantage I can get. Something a LOT of people ignore....you get a +1 to attack FROM UPHILL OR ABOVE.


Sunna's singing is a Sleep spell? Or Inspire Courage?

Grin, I was just discussing with the DM about trying to come in from above :)

Great minds
