New thread.

I'm giving Khulekani until tomorrow to respond, after which I just suggest we move on. I can probably make a post.

I will shoot the player a message, but it is likely I will be assuming NPC control of the character.

No, as it is Mallory's summoning, not Astre's covertness that is tested. But it makes sense that Astre should be able to influence the roll. Working Together is applicable, so make the check with Advantage.

It is reasonable to assume Harai has a sense of smell superior to most Humanoids.

To clarify, I didn't mean to include Astre's Stealth or Aid in the question.  Rather it was about line of sight; I set it so that Mallory was specifically bringing Astre out in a location where Harai wouldn't be able to see him due to her blocking line of sight.  When characters have varying levels of cover (being lightly or heavily obscured) it imposes a negative on sight-based Perception checks or automatically puts them into being unseen.

However, if Harai's Perception check is based on anything other than sight, then it's a moot point.

Bears,

Do you need checks from Stormheart and Rhydd re: finding a nice, Peryton-less place to set up evening camp? :)

No, I think we can expand upon the Survival checks you rolled earlier if anything.

Sorry for not posting for a while now. Feeling kind of drained, but I'll see if I can't get something up in both threads within the next couple of days.

Certainly nothing to apologize over.  I often get periods of low energy when my workload spikes up with each project season, so I know how it feels to be running on fumes.  Just take your time and recharge however you need to.

In reply to DM Bears (msg # 6):

No worries, as Mallory has already said (using a few more words, admittedly). :)

I have played in games on the other end of the spectrum, where daily posts were de rigueur, and that got to be a bit of a bother before all was said and done.

Yeah. I'm fine with no posts right now. It's...been a terrible week so far, I'm just trying to get past it really.
