So, it’s my turn now?

Sorta kinda?  Regardless of the Werewolverine's saving throw, Mallory will either move or not move from her current position and that's not going to change much of the battlefield as far as Farwalker's options are concerned.  I don't see why you couldn't get your action in.

Whoops, you’re right, Farwalker. It is absolutely your turn, I just forgot to bump you up in the initiative list.

In reply to DM Bears (msg # 43):

Gotcha. Thought so, was just double checking. I’ll get my post in a little later.

In reply to Farwalker (msg # 44):

A bit later than I would have liked, but it's there!

I've got three spell effects active. That's kind of silly.

Apologies for the delay, Mallory. Here's the roll: DM Bears rolled 16 using 1d20.  Werewolverine Int Saving Throw.

Oof. With that settled, I'll start writing my post since I assume not much changes.

Oof.  And here I went for the INT based saving throw because I figured it would be a safer bet over the DEX based alternative I could've gone with.  Ah well.

I've updated my post with the rest of my turn; Mallory's just moving away to get out of melee range for the time being.

Sorry for holding things up, been feeling a bit under the weather. I'll get a post in either later today or tomorrow. Probably tomorrow.

In reply to DM Bears (msg # 48):

Sorry to hear that you are feeling bad, Bears. You might miss out on Norway's one week of decent weather. :)

Hope that you feel better soon.

Oh, you think we get an entire week of decent weather? We've had exactly one day with clear skies this July, and that was yesterday. At least June was nice.

Speaking of Norway, it is at least possible that I have an unexpected nexus by way of Maine, U.S.A. (I live in Florida). Puzzled? Read on, gentle reader . . .

For some time now, we have been feeding stray kitties (along with racoons and possums) that come into our yard.

We now (through the process of them adopting us, or us adopting them, or both) have an inside kitty and an inside/outside kitty.

By appearance and temperament, we think that our inside/outside cat has a lot of Maine Coon cat blood. If not a purebred, it's pretty close.

I never knew much about Maine Coon cats, but apparently there is at least one theory that posits that the breed is descended from the Norwegian Forest cats that were brought over to this continent by the ancient Norse.

Who knew? Not me! :)

FLUFFY VIKING CATS, YOU SAY?!

In reply to Idrianthe Mar (msg # 52):

I think I have that mini.

Religion for the Codicil of White, Arcana or History (your choice) for Ythryn.

Thank you!

EDIT: Put my roll results in the post!

You have my deepest condolences.  ^^
I live over on the West Coast where we're entirely accustomed to constant heat, and even I still nearly melted when I visited Florida a while back.  The humidity was absolutely overwhelming.  I spent the entire trip huddled under a parasol and actually made quite a few random friends of people who would walk a bit closer to me to get into the shade briefly as well.  ^^;


I yearn for grey and cold skies.  T_T  It's been so long and it's just abysmally hot of late that going outside for any period of time is increasingly untenable.  I've got a little desk fan I have to keep pointed at myself pretty much all the time; if I turn it off even for a few moments, the room starts to swelter even with everything kept in full shade and well-ventilated.

That's one of the amusing aspects of this game for me: people love D&D for the sake of fantasy escapism, and a big part of that for me is being somewhere cold!

I live in New England, and I was born in Alaska.

The sun can eat my ass. It's too hot!

Born, raised and (tragically) still living in northern Ohio. Gloomy gray days are bae, and we're good at them when it's not the hot, muggy garbage time of year.

You likewise have my condolences.  I've been to Ohio once in my life and that was enough for me to swear to never set foot in that state again as long as I live.  I had to go there for the worst of reasons to begin with (a close friend of mine passed away abruptly) and the entire time I was there was one disaster after another.  It felt like the state itself was trying to attack me.

I'm so sorry about your friend, Mal.

But yes, Ohio is a bit of a hostile, eldritch state. It's a running joke in a weirdly large number of forums I'm in that it's the tenth circle of Hell and will devour the world and... You know, it's hard to disagree.

(Although I actually live in a nice area that's not emblematic of life for most Ohioans. It's also a very inexpensive place to live, which is a plus.)

The usual joke I hear is that since Ohio produces the greatest number of astronauts, there's just something about the state that urges one to get as far away as possible, including leaving the planet entirely.

Ah, that old chestnut! Yes, Ohio birthed the people who invented air travel, the first American to orbit Earth, and produces more aviators and pilots per capita than any other state in the Union (or did at one point). Ohio! The state so bad that people will flee the planet to leave!

Or, my preferred version: Ohio, the Get the Fuck Out State!

...DM Bears?  I have immediate and pressing crafting plans for equipment that a Familiar can take with them into their pocket dimension.
