I don't know where Lyra's got to...

Now is a good time to make a point - when you're interacting with the world rather than just each other, I will allow roughly a day for everyone to post before I move things on. This is because I'd like to keep the game going at a decent pace. If you're just talking amongst yourselves I'll wait until you're all ready before moving on.

Sorry, was out of town guys.

Had some personal matters to attend to.

No problem, thanks for letting us know you're back :)

Yeah.  I usually let the DM know before I get going, but I wasn't able to.

Well, I'm back so I'll be catching up.

Did you want us to post our dice rolls here, or is it okay if we post them IC, Mr.DM ?

Spot Check: 2
Initiative: 18

You can post them IC in a private line to me, or in this thread, either in a private line or in public.

Anything OOC beyond actions or rolls to go in this thread, however. (Your note about defense was fine in IC thread for example)

I'm breathing a sigh of relief that you both realised that lethal force isn't called for...!

Siliwen is a sane, rational person, and hurting others unecessarily is not her way of doing things.

Glad to hear it! Sane and rational have not typically been characteristics of the tabletop group I run.

I see a game as a mini slice of life in a different setting.  People need to mostly work together to get things accomplished. Even Heros can't always do it alone. and woe to them that think they can.  Evenough goblins in a mob can take doen just about anything. and dagger in the eye slit of a well armored knight, kills quickly.

You'll fit in just fine here ;)

The players in the tabletop game are slowly learning to think like you do - the odd death here and there has certainly helped.

Death by stupidity helps some see the error of their ways.  Some never seem to learn but in the game I play death by stupidity has penalites to the next character they create.

I'm sorry that I was unable to post one more day than I thought, but I'm back now.

Welcome back, and no problemo - as long as you let us know when you're away more than a day it's not an issue :)

How far away from the poachers are we? Is this going to take a few days, or can we come and go from the woods to the town in no time?

You have no idea ;) Milo will tell you the woods are deep and you could travel for days in them.

Just in case anyone was waiting - in party conversation there's no need to wait for everyone to post. If someone is a little late they can just reply to several posts at once. It's only when actions are taken that we need to be polite and allow time for others to state theirs - in which case it'll be a day or so.

No word from Milo, so I'll move things on - it seems you're all quite happy to head out there without much prep other than fetching your gear.

we use back posting a lot in one game I am in  That is what it is call

Backpost in Inn

Jason came out of the inn last having to take care of a few things to do ......

Backposting in stable.

Jason wa upset to find his horse in a samll walled off corral and not in a stall.  I paide good money for a stall.......

Current post

Jason meet up wiht the others as they road out of town her has had to hurry though the crowds and had unfortunately pushed a few pwople out o fhis way.......

Yeah that's what I'm talking about, though I wouldn't include the bits saying 'backpost', I'd just describe what happened.

Watch order? If anyone wants to chat whilst you're walking, feel free to 'backpost' that :)

Edit: Forgot to mention, I posted as Milo as we haven't heard from him for a while.

Hey guys, I'm sick so I may not be on.

Feel free to post as me if that's what's needed.

Ok, thanks for letting us know - and get well soon :)

I went ahead and got a post up.

I got hit with a double wammy, first stomach flu, now cold, though I think I've got strep or some other infection of the throat because this is the worst sore throat I've ever had..

I'll try to be around.  And thanks, I hope to start feeling well soon.

Take care drinks lots of fluids and rest.  Hope you get well quickly.

Thanks.  I'm feeling better today.

I was going to post yesterday, but I was just too tired to convey what I was thinking into the post, so I settled with juts waiting.
