Sorry for a belated greeting to our newest initiate; welcome to the part and hope you have a good time with us.

As to the posts lol. I needed time to think and muse. Giving ending form is always a tricky prospect. ;)

Everly, I appreciate the welcome and I'm looking forward to joining all of you.

I ordered my Black Cube last week and it was finally delivered today.  Unfortunately, the Amazon reseller that I purchased it from had placed it in a cheap shipping container (not the original packaging from Monte Cook Games) and it must have gotten dropped along the way.  UPS, in its infinite wisdom, discarded the damaged exterior box and simply taped up the Black Cube itself for the remainder of the trip to my house.  Long story short, the Black Cube is trashed, there was evidently some water damage based on the stains on some of the items inside and the books have broken bindings, smashed covers, etc.  Needless to say, I was pretty unhappy this afternoon.  Serves me right for not ordering directly from Monte Cook in the first place.

I'm returning everything to the supplier and will be ordering the PDFs tomorrow so that I can get an RTJ up sometime this weekend.  I still plan to buy the physical product at some point...hoping that they don't sell out before that.

Oof... I'd be basically in tears over that if I was honest. Hopefully there'll be no fussing over the return given the condition it arrived in.

Keeping my fingers crossed about the return.  I opened it and took a gazillion pictures of the damage to each item.  I was literally sick to my stomach when it was dropped off.

Oh wait, I know what that was.  Clearly that was a magical flux while summoning the Black Cube, causing a False Cube to appear in its place.  You are redoing the summoning, as is proper, to make certain the true Black Cube appears!

Alive and well. There were some protests and a curfew in my area for several days. The actual protests were passionate but peaceful; the curfew was because some idiots who weren't protesting at all decided to go loot stores en masse for giggles one night.

I have family in Minneapolis, and their house isn't far from where the riot zone was, but luckily they were several hours north at their cabin, teleworking, when everything went down.  They're still up there for the time being, and probably will be up there until things calm down a touch more.

Woo!

Glad to have you.  Things have been a little slow due to the real world being rather on fire, but I'm hoping everyone is okay and they pick up here soon.

Anything I can do to help?

I’m sure.   I’ve spent the last few months dealing with one crisis before another one pops up.  I’ve posted some stuff into the character and neighborhood threads so feel free to comment on that stuff.

No worries.  I planned for this game to go at a somewhat more leisurely pace due to the complexity of the characters and the world. I figured on less number of posts but of somewhat longer length or meaning.  Also, ya know, the real world's on fire on several levels so folks shouldn't need to worry overmuch about what is supposed to be a fun activity.

Hey folks.  I'm still here.  We had a bit of a COVID scare.  A member of my family tested positive on the 5th and is still getting over it.  She's doing well and had a mild case.
Fortunately, the rest of us tested negative.

Man, this week got away from me.

I'm back now, sorry for the delay.  The good news is my test results are in and I don't have COVID.  Weird to live at a time when even a sore throat is a sign of grave concern.

Hello everyone. first and foremost, my deepest apologies for not replying/posting, etc., especially since this is a very delicate time with the pandemic. I am doing fun (fingers crossed) but my state moved forward with opening up certain parts of our economy for business (Our state, for the record, has been very good about paying attention to COVID-19 so our numbers had been low up until recently). This ended up causing a huge influx of business at work, much to my chagrin, and my stress levels have been off the chart trying to manage the busy after 2 months or more of stagnation, and on top of that anxiety over things.

This meant I have not had any chance to post to the games I am in, and I fear that while things are still in constant disarray I will not be able to keep up. Which is very annoying, as I was really enjoying the game for the brief time I was involved.

Unless things shift, I will have to step down, especially since I do not want to bog things down for everyone else. If needed, Tryvv can bow out with whatever NPC info is needed...he is a bit of a flighty sort anyway. And of course there is The Shadow, another avenue to have him bow out (And he is especially prone to it given his backstory).

I apologize again for the inconvenience on our awesome DM and the group, as well as any worry I may have caused. Please take care of yourselves everyone!

Man, there is a global pandemic going on.  You certainly don't owe me an apology.  Take good care of yourself and your loved ones, don't worry about pretending to be a sorcerer on the internet.  Please be safe and be well.

Tryvv, sorry to hear things have gotten so stressful.  Take care of yourself as Tryvv takes a jaunt to Shadow.  If things calm down again, you are certainly welcome to come back.  :)
