These OOC discussions are peak D&D.  I love the way you guys are shaping your character dynamics. :)

Barracus: I understood that reference.

If we encounter Frinarv, Barris's findings should be clear to Baldin.

Sorry are we splitting up right now or should I follow along?

In reply to Cal'alais Eltharin (msg # 91):

My reading of the DM's message was that this was a time to do whatever we wanted.

The text of the journal is available for all to read. I thought Barris would probably do that, since I'd mentioned him obtaining it. That doesn't mean to me that no one else can be aware of the contents.

I had Barris invite Baldin because the two need to talk, and because I don't really like it when every person in the party is doing something different. So, I tried to make it so he and I were doing the same thing.

Anyone is welcome to join, though I'd ask that Barris get to run point, at least at first.

My character is trying to talk with Arran and using the mimic cups as a lead-in.

Yeah, Cal'alais you can hang out wherever you'd like: you can join Barracus in some potential "shopping", talk to Arran with Caylius, follow the rest to talk with Frinarv, or do your own thing (get in touch with your contacts, check out the area, or just call it a night)

When everyone finishes, we'll skip to the next scene.

Thanks! I will make a decision in the morning when I am more awake.

Just checking: do we need to have specific weapons or use them in a specific way in order to knock a target out, or otherwise just deal non-permanent damage?

Any time you reduce an enemy to 0 HP with an attack, you can choose to knock them unconscious rather than kill them.  It's a lot easier than having to keep track of different damage types.

Running on no sleep, I'll have a post up this afternoon..

What I've gotten as Baldin from Frinarv and Barris' reaction is that Khimah is/was an associate of the other three but the incident that happened that night with her and Bili has caused Khimah to lose her memory and to some extent herself.

It sounds like Frinarv and Arran have tried to help her recover some of what was lost with little success, and that Barris feels like it hasn't been enough based on what he has read. Baldin can't help thinking that this is all tied in with why we're gathered here tonight and that this is Bili's attempt the right a wrong.

In reply to Baldin Stonecrusher (msg # 99):

Sort of. Obviously it hasn't been enough in terms of recovering her memories, but Barris sees that as secondary to simply keeping the gnome safe and not terrified, as she seems now, due to not remembering anyone. Seems like an easy problem to fix.

Running way behind the schedule I set for myself...  a combination of work, car trouble and moving to a new apartment  >_<

I'll have some time after taking my wife to work today, so hopefully the post should be up by the morning!

In reply to Guildmaster (msg # 101):

Cool and good luck. And no pressure.

I hope this isn't defunct and that our DM is well. This had a very promising start.

Hi all! I hope this game returns.

I'm around as well. :)

I am going out of town for 2 days so will be very silent but am coming back. :)

In reply to Caylius Valveria (msg # 106):

Unfortunately it doesn't seem like you'll miss anything here. Have a safe trip.

I think the DM had some really big plans for this game, what with the detailed posts and the intertwined NPCs. Pity. Well, I hope you all have other games to occupy you. Maybe we'll play together again.

Ya this DM seemed abnormally promising! I really liked his posts and how he seamlessly enmeshed mechanics with the overall narrative.

I know it's been a year and I kinda dropped off the face of the planet... Just checking if anyone is still alive out there and interested.

Holy crap! Talk about a sudden revival from the dead! Man is this game sparking a huge trip down memory lane for me!

Well I'm very much still here on RPOL for sure. You certainly did drop off the face of the Earth though...is everything okay? How have you been?

Let's make this happen. Go team!
