smexy flighty debutante, to him! :p

 That line got me thinking that they both had recognized her (using Sherlock-style deduction-fu)

 As for the decoy -- considering that is what they came for, I assume Josep would get the hint.
 If not : Josep Gavinho rolled 13 using 1d20+3 with rolls of 10. perception decoy

 It will annoy Donato, but that's half the fun, isn't it?

 As GM said, you would be the only one actually from the highland-like region, so your three companions will have fun trying to make out what you're saying.

Hey Hamble? The GM says we're never to be in the same thread together.

What did you do?

I think the "both" there is Tandro and Charan.  It was Charan seeing the serving woman change into Janne, and Tandro seeing Xavar show up, and both noticed Janne see her fellow bard.

In reply to Murtagh Fhaolain (msg # 49):

Welcome. Dude love the Scottish Highland thing. If you can write a brogue, then I'm all for it (so long as I can understand it).

Y'know, I'm always intensely curious to see people's character sheets (though I've not asked for it in this game).

But now I'm really curious. :P

I'm sure I don't know.

Now... there are many possible reasons that come to mind.
I'm sure it has nothing to do with complexities, significant back and forth exchanges, considerations of minutiae...

Probably just that we're both straaaaange people ? :p
oo!  Oo! Probably that Hamble is far too sweet, pure, and innocent to be corrupted by ye! :)

In reply to Luke Harrington (msg # 62):

With the right feats, a human is considered to have every skill as a class skill and be trained in each of them. On top of that, the feats grant a bonus to skills that have 0 skill points in them.

So, given the lack of a Use Rope skill I went for a Profession that'd focus a lot on using rope.



I'm also proficient with Whips, which makes it extra funny.

In reply to Tandro Rynell (msg # 60):

That makes a lot more sense, reading it again.
Even more so as it was in the first part of the post.

Maybe folks have talked about this already (not super active on the OOC) but have folks taken a look at the D&D basic rules or gotten the new Starter kit yet?

Just picked up the starter set, looks promising, but not really that far into it.

Because crafting.

First player who is NOT Kubrik, Luke or Bell to see this, roll 2d100 and record both dies.  Post the result.  This is for Bell.  Post the result here.  I will explain in a private line visible to everyone who is not in that thread.

I can't recall if the spouse has it or not -- Tandro?

20:25, Today: Murtagh Fhaolain rolled 178 using 2d100 with rolls of 95,83.

You should be getting the chance to see soon -- Niall just left to fetch Murtagh; once the conversation is done, we'll move to morning and our friendly brogue-ish barbarian will arrive to make his introductions.

Back again tomorrow -- first up will be the return of Aeroc, who has been patiently waiting for me to reopen his thread.

I picked it up, and I can say that I really really like the rules so far. The starter set contains everything you need to run a low level campaign with some basic magic items, DM rules, and monster stat blocks from CR1 to CR4, with a dragon (CR8) and another monster as well.

I'm already a big fan of the system. PHB is three weeks away. (It gets released to Wizard's Play Network stores on August 8th.)

Does this have anything to do with DnD next?
I took part in the playtest on that one, but I'm not sure where they're at right now.

DnD Next = DnD 5th Edition = DnD Basic. The playtest evolved into the rules that you see now.

DnD Basic is a free version of DnD 5th Edition with a limited subset of the rules. Right now, it has character creation options and basic gameplay info. Once the PHB is released, it will be updated with monster stats and DM rules.

I downloaded the pdf when Luke linked to it the other week.  I started it, and it looks kind of interesting (I just read about most of the classes and not much further yet).  My problem now is that I have a ton of Pathfinder stuff (and I still have all my 3.5 stuff) and I'm not sure how differently the new D&D will play from those.  I'll probably get the main three books again (got 'em for 4th, too but decided the changes weren't for me.) and keep an eye on reviews and other articles to see how it plays.

 Something I really liked from the playtest was the not-so-exponential power progression, and some features that seemed directly resurrected from 1st edition. Also, the simplification of the skills system, and the at-will powers implemented from 4th/PF.

 I'll have to take a look at this... although to be perfectly honest, I'm quite comfortable with 3.5/PF right now.

I liked the slower progression of attacks and saves and such in the DnD Next Playtest as well.  They max out at +6 at 20th-level.  Definitely a significant advantage over the +1 of 1st-level characters, but not so much so that 20th-level characters are totally invulnerable to lower-level ones.

I like the new system, but I'm not sure how it feels just yet.
