I should be at the cave entrance, not seeing anything of value unless it is stupid big or obvious.

In reply to The Stuntman (msg # 20):

Did you give The Great Karnac a grid coordinate?

I'm still not sure where the scribe and Shade will be. The Stuntman will be on the map shortly.

Knowing where the Scorpion is will be a great boon to subsequent attack attempts.

In reply to The Great Karnac (msg # 22):

I will be heading back to the scorpion as soon as I teleport the scribe someplace safe.

Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays.

Merry Christmas to everyone! :)

Yup, Merry Christmas and all that.

I'll post tonight.

Assuming that Darryl is on the path to the cave, the Scorpion is in the rocky hills above him and the Phoenix is flying overhead?

Quick question that I am confused about, is the dark area the cave or a boulder outside of the cave?

boulder outside the cave

So {14,18} is a Boulder outside the cave, and {17,19} is just inside the cave? It isn't clear where the cave is and where 'outside' is.

Think of it as a sort of contour map. The southwest corner is the top and each contour line is 3m lower than the previous line. The large grey blob is a boulder that's approximately five meters long, three meters wide, and two meters tall. The cave mouth is a three meter area behind the boulder. The cave is shallow, about three or four meters deep, though it's about six meters long.

So we had to go around the boulder to get to the cave.

Like this?

 

To quote Ed McMahon, "you are correct, sir".
Ok, just pretend Desiree Diamond is Johnny Carson.

Excellent :)  I would try to do an accent, but I just can't pull them off!! ;)

Once the scorpion does its thing, I'll probably go after whoever Desiree decides to hit. If the bruisers last fight taught me anything, it is that I do not hit hard enough. At least, not by myself.

While waiting for everyone to finish their post, can I have Desiree make another post just for responding to Phoenix?

I'm mostly done, out of necessity. Either the fight ends before it starts with diplomacy, or I screw up the coordinated attack as the dice say I do... or I hit by some miracle and increase the odds of a Stun.

In reply to Desiree Diamond (msg # 38):

Yes, feel free. I'm trying to be more flexible in running combat, hoping it will speed things up.

I've been rendered incoherent by fever for a day or two (I think), but I'm back. now.

I am glad you are feeling better!  Welcome back to land of coherent!
