I figured, since Isolde's backstory seems to rest on needing to keep track of her kill count, and I've agreed to help her keep track of Moradin Approved Kills, I might as well actually count them out. So, up to Greenest msg #291, this is entirely based on finishing blow, not number of successful attacks, and does NOT include the 3 kobolds Kathra murdered in their sleep.


Bencor's made a point of not participating in a few fights, saving lives rather than taking them, so despite my urge to mock Isolde's combat roles, we're all actually on par with each other.

Inanah doesn't have a grudge against humans's, I swear. :-)

So much dwarvern and elven being spoken guys. I've missed out on more than 50% of the spoken text in the game last several weeks. Nrell was also human and left out of the mix. Just saying.

RE: Kill count tally. I'll try and lift my game XD

I try to provide enough context clues that other people can figure out what I'm saying in Foreign.

It's an interesting impact on the game, and certainly accurately models the frustration of living in multilingual cultures. I can see why it could be frustrating. If you'd like, I can promise to start including translations in spoiler tags.

Kathra, you should get an additional 1d8 of damage for that last attack, since it's a critical hit with a natural 20.

Thanks, after screwing up the rules on Aiding and Flanking that I thought still worked from 3.5, I'm hesitant to make any assumptions.

Chapter 9 is a good, easy-to-digest 10 pages of 5e combat rules.

In reply to Isolde Glibhammer (msg # 252):

Yeah, the problem is that I've played every version of D&D ever produced, over the last 35 years, and trying to remember which rules go with which game is getting a bit weird, especially as I'm in several rpol games using different editions.

Still, thanks for the link. I'll use it to verify the rules before posting from my computer.

Sorry DM. I've been generous with my PC's willingness to chase the storyline but Bencor has a rough IC inkling that he's a lvl 1 nobody who's got no spell slots left. Its too much of an ask to go up there on the battlements.

In reply to Bencor Dekarrac (msg # 254):

Tenuously connected groups shattering in the face of a dragon attack? Seems pretty realistic RP to me, anyway.

No need to apologize. Don't feel obligated to take on an adult dragon at 1st level. :)

Yeah Ben will roll with Hasan.

I'm waiting on little more description of the surroundings, since if Inanah can't find another place for shooting, she might well also join the guys that don't go on the walls.

Sorry, but I've been sick for the past two days. I'll post something tomorrow.

Take your time. We've decided to split and double your workload.

I'm at a convention starting tomorrow. My responses will be slow and probably less speaking, whether in common or other.

Sorry for being a baddie, I will post today.

Before this kicks off Hasan can heal up to 5 HP.

Thanks! That will almost heal me completely.

I'll say you get within 80 feet of the mill/raiders before Isolde begins her charge. You'll have a surprise round. Go ahead and post your actions for that round if you haven't already.

I have been unable to check RPOL from last night until just now; I kept getting a 404 not found error. Of course, now that I can get on, I don't have time to post. I'll get something up later tonight, barring any further technical difficulties.

Me too. Rpol's problem, not yours.

Isolde, how did you get a 13 for damage? I'm not seeing how you get +5 to your damage rolls. Perhaps I'm missing something...

Bencor, how many hit points do you currently have? Are you at full hit points (10) right now? Your sheet says 1/10. Also, I'm not sure how you are adding +4 to your damage rolls, too.

+3 damage from strength, +2 damage from the dueling fighting style.

Got it. I missed where it said Dueling Fighting Style on your sheet (I see it now!). Thanks!
