Congrats Magnus!  Good luck on the move, hopefully things go smoothly.  I’ll take cues as needed from Rolf or the other players to keep us from slowing down too much - take whatever time you need.


Maybe just me, but I never felt like the Central Valley got all four seasons… so it sounds like you are going at least a little ways.  Hopefully the weather (and the air quality!) is an improvement.

Promotion and a move? Awesome!  Congrats, Magnus!

Glad to hear it dude. Congrats!

I'm out of town again for a few more days.  I'm hoping to keep things moving (hopefully even a better pace than normal), but I'm fairly certain that the hotel wifi is going to be difficult for uploading images and the like.  We'll see how it goes, but my expectation is a faster pace with no capability for maps or images.

Actually, this week i'm also heading out to Poland for my birthday!

SO i might be a little slow getting responses in - but i'll be back at the weekend.

Happy Birthday Giles!  And, wow, Poland!  Kind of a scary time to be traveling in that direction. Be safe!

Hey! Happy Birthday man.

Have fun over there.

Happy birthday Giles.  Hope Poland is amazing.

Amazing in a good way ... there is plenty of amazing bad stuff going on not far away, avoid that.

Aye, COVID stopped me going 2 years ago, War is a pretty good second reason not to go.. but I think i'll be on the "easier life" side of the line.

Thanks for the note Runt.  The name in the post is edited.

Do me a favor though and if you have a post that is entirely OOC in nature, just throw it in this thread if you would.

Check, got it.

Get well soon Giles!

Thanks,

I'm pretty fortunate that it's just like a bad cold or maybe an 'easy' kinda flu. I'm vaccinated and everything so I wonder how it'd have been if I'd been free range.

Anyway, will be better in a few days.

:)

In reply to Giles 'J'naeth' Hind (msg # 58):

Yikes Giles!  I’m glad it wasn’t so bad for you!  Feel better!

Seriously, great job Rolf picking up on that.

Thanks!  I had my suspicions from the start, but wasn't sure till I cast my spell.

Raddek, when we left the caves and saw the horses were dispersed and Terri and Hamish weren't around I was immediately suspicious.  And especially so with Hamish's story.

But knowing for sure skullduggery is afoot before taking action is another matter.  Fortunately the spell went off without a hitch.

Lol.  You were definitely fortunate you had the spell and it worked as well as it did.  At first I was going to give you all the details with it, then I read over the spell again... turns out sense foes senses hostility, which I wasn't sure was an exact fit.  It made perfect sense in the stereotypical demihuman slaughter modules where the bad guys just hate all humans with an undying passion, but was Hamish really hostile?

Turns out, he was, irrespective of the traitor thing.  Bad Temper, Bloodlust, and a quirk of "hates magic" set him off the edge pretty quickly, especially when you didn't attempt to hide your spell - just disguise it as something else.

In the end I figured I'd make it clear.  You'd picked up all the pieces, and it came down to a GM call on interpretation.  I probably wouldn't have given you as much if it been the beginning of a mystery module ("Cast sense foes on Colonel Mustard!") but in this case I felt it was more than appropriate.  Again, good work.

Only one reference to the name Niall - message # 73 in the Equal Share thread.

Sorry for the horrible lag.  Multiple things all coming together at the same time including taxes, every day kids sports, a chaotic and random work schedule and a newish puppy who seems to think that me working on a computer is a complete waste of my hands.  I'll try and do better.

No problem at all.  Real life comes first.

No need to rush.  We can wait.

What he said. :)

No worries dude!

I'll get a post out tomorrow too :)
