'I feel like Belkar' is all you have to say.

Been hiking all day on the worst trail ever, and my legs are killing me.  The hike took hours linger than it should have.

'Pirate or ninja?'  'Heh, I wouldn't know, I can't even spot the ninja panel.'

Life's been busy.

You know your inits, you're 60ft away.  First actions?

My first action....Asking to leave

Hm?

Tell me what Garath sees and hears, so I can tell you how he reacts.  He won't react to just a tunnel opening up ahead; is there anything else he notices?

Reminder:
23:27, Today: Garath Darkstar rolled 10 using 1d20. Listen.
23:27, Today: Garath Darkstar rolled 17 using 1d20. Spot.
23:28, Today: Garath Darkstar rolled 16 using 1d20+4. Search.

Scuffling ahead.

Search takes a full-round action, so that would be your round, are you sure?

No, the spot/listen/search rolls were the prior round (in which Garath uses his senses to figure out what's going on).  The current round is after the prior round's rolls were resolved.

"Scuffling" - i.e. people/creatures fighting?

okay.

movement.

Seriously, did Gauge leave the game?

I don't know...

We should give Gauge a few days to resurface, otherwise you'll have to NPC him; we're so close to the conclusion now.

I'm not sure...I'll NPC him after three days.

Not that it really matters GM kool, but I am working 16 hours a day with 3 of my 6 crew members walking out monday night because they were tired of the crew we relieve.  I am off to bed and when I get up I will try to get up the ambition to post in this forum.

Take your time bro!

Good, he lives!  I'll leave it to you then.

Do you guys have wishes for your B'day gifts?

And Gauge, bump!  In case it slipped your mind.

I've sent you mine!

Great! Looks like we're all set for the next round!

I'm going to be scarce for an indefinite amount of time.  I'm trying to ease up on stuff and get some sleep, to try to improve my mood and stuff.  I'll probably be on for an hour or two every day or two.

Sorry, but I don't have the time to work an update now, get to it ASAP.

Too sleepy now, too busy tomorrow, too sleepy tomorrow night probably...apologies, but it'll be a while before I update.

Gauge?

Sadly, Gauge seems to have disappeared for the time being. You will have to NPC him for the time being.

I will, but I don't have time right now to dig through his character sheet to find out what he can do, the decide what to do, and all that...

I think he had signalled his intent to use his wand to blast stuff, if that helps...

Yup, for this round his actions are clearly stated: wand in hand, ready to blast.
