Oh then good to have you on board - I err we always need meat un follow companions.

Yup, again and again till will get it right.

Like a good cake and wine.  Keep making until you get it right and then celebrate with some more :-)

In reply to Beverley Harrow (msg # 115):

Chocolate cake please.

So, do we start back in the cave system????  Or do you wish to start us a bit differently?

charlie brown squinted his eyes, his tongue between his teeth. This time would be different. This time, he'll kick that football to the moon. lucy promised, why...she'd never yank it away this time. Things are going to change, I can fee it...

In reply to Raphim (msg # 117):

Love it

In reply to Beverley Harrow (msg # 118):

was that really a foot ball???


So so we all can post timely  DM, oh glorious magnificent all powerful DM what is your posting schedule?  Did you want to post once a week?

In reply to Dirk (msg # 119):

Be nice, DM is just getting back into this game, ease them in slowly hehehe

In reply to Beverley Harrow (msg # 120):

yup why I thought just have a set schedule to post something.  I found it helps to get back into things even if the post is in the tavern to just post.

Can't wait for the campaign to start up again.  One post at a time  :)

In reply to Dirk (msg # 121):

It's already started back up.... Unless I'm not really down that narrow passage which leads to that unlocked treasure chest with the magical spear of slaying and returning !!!

Have no fear.  Grimbold has slain the 5 dragons that guarded it and is loading the various bags of holding onto the mule.

In reply to Grimbold (msg # 123):

Ah, the ebony mule you found at the doors, yeah, I saw that too.

In reply to Beverley Harrow (msg # 124):

Dirk looks about wondering why then is he checking traps at the main door when all the loot has been down those side passageways.

OK, guys gals please just share the food and drink as this halfling is hungry and thirsty after all that trap checking.

ou can keep all that magicm it only attracts others to want it from you or others expect you to do all the fighting for them and risk your necks.  Me, I'll just enjoy a good drink every now an then and let you all do all the adventuring for me.

In reply to Dirk (msg # 125):

Beverley hands over to Dirk, a small box with a tiny lock, she hands him the key which was stuck to the bottom when she found it. As he ooens it, there is a pop and then the smell of chocolate cake assaults Dirks nostrils as a glorious piece gleams in the torch light. Go on Dirk, try it.... Its not a trap, how could it be with such succulent majesty enticing your very sould to taste it?

An update this evening.

In reply to DM (msg # 127):

Nice, no more cooking form Beverly please.....

Dirk ducks to avoid the back hand ....

In reply to Dirk (msg # 128):

Dirk avoids the back-hand but missed the sweeping of the Hoe.

In reply to Beverley Harrow (msg # 129):

Oh farm equipment now is it  lol

Dirks got a feather bed oh Beverly dear

In reply to Dirk (msg # 130):

Feather bed... Luxury. Next to a Cow, or Sheep, now they'll keep you warm.

I am confused as to where we are.  It sounds like Dirk and Beverley are near the entrance and Raph and Grim are deeper in the cavern.

In reply to Grimbold (msg # 132):

Beverley and Dirk are in the narrow side passage near the gate, the mob are at the entrance to the cave up the stairs.

So Grim and Raph are trapped?

Ok, a bit of context and refreshment. And context for Beverly's sake.

The group was originally in the village. There, an angry mob formed seeking to storm a fortress in the marshes. That is the mob you saw, they are on the way to the fortress. The cave is a safe out-of-the-way spot. But the mob itself is moving to the fortress not to the cave.

The party followed a couple of cloaked men that was in the village and looked worried because the mob formed, one of them wanted to bail completely and was killed by the other. The party followed him to the cave entrance -which had armed guards-. The cloaked man entered the cave, and now a group of them are approaching the gates you all are in front of.

I thought we were in the cave.  No one said anything about a fortress or gate

In reply to Grimbold (msg # 136):

I described this, Beverly is in the passage, the gates are in front of you.

Also, there was mention of a moathouse/outpost back in the makeshift tavern. Right before the people lost their minds and formed the mob.

and if i understand correctly grimbold heard a person and then people approaching the gate in one round, while beverly and dirk have encountered something that ran over her foot and had a tail..?
