Hey, folks! Apologies for ghosting; it's been an insane couple of months. Aiming to catch up and be posting again in a few days if there's still space for me

Okay, I know we've been dormant but I'm checking around to see if there interest in reviving this game. Anyone still here?

I am still around :)

Me too

Ditto

Okay, good to hear! :)

As it happens we are very close to the end of 'Through the Drakwald' so I'll finish it up and put an advert in a few days to look for a couple of new players as we start the next stage of the campaign ('Ashes of Middenheim.')

Well that was a lot longer than I hoped but I am still in this. I'll finish up the current adventure and award XP very soon. :)

So roll call! By my count we have Pieter, Lukas, Harkrin and Fyodor right?

Aye!

Da!

Yep!

Still here!

Cool. :)

I think it's pretty clear we've lost Jocelin and Edgar so I'll seperate them from the group before we begin Ashes of Middenheim.

I'm trying to decide on bringing in a fifth player or not. On the one hand four players is a nice even, managablesize and I think you guys gel well. On the other hand it would be very useful having someone around who knows magic and having a literate character is dang near vital!

We're still a long ways away from it yet but have any of you any thoughts for your second careers? I can start planning ahead!

Either Demagogue, Thief or Veteran... depending on how things play out. Of these, all lead to Outlaw Chief and Thief rings that Read/Write skill

I broke off things in the IC to allow you guys to talk to the Captain (and anyone else in the caravan) but for all intents and purposes we've just finished 'Through the Drakwald'. Well done guys, and thank you for sticking with this during the numerous hiatuses. :)

I think we've lost Jocelin and Edgar unfortunately so I'll retire them to NPC status. Having said that if anyone really wants to swap their current character and take over either Jocelin or Edgar I'd consider it.

So XP time!

125 XP each for surviving the adventure and escorting the Untergard survivors to safety.
50 XP each for stopping Granny Moescher summoning a daemon.
25 XP each for for character roleplaying.

Joy!

Remind me please: in 2ed it's still 100xp per advancement, but with % attributes it's +5 rather than +10 per 100xp?

Yep!:)

100XP for all 5% or (an additional '1' for Secondary Profile Characteristics.)

Lukas will take 5% in S and T then - he certainly needs to toughen up a bit if he is going to survive.

Long term career, some of this adventure so far has seen him scouting ahead or tracking back so I think Scout is a good second career for him.  He possibly won't progress this until any city adventuring is over.  Therefore I may find something as a tide over until he leaves the city but I think Scout is a good option for now.

I was in touch with a lurker about possibly coming in as a fifth player but I haven't heard anything back for a while, so it might still just be you four at the start of the next chapter.

I happy to keep the current IC thread open a little longer if you guys want to wrap up things there? *Nudges Klinka, Fyodor and Pieter*

And with that we have officially finished Through the Drakwald and moved onto the next stage of the adventure. I've posted a new thread along with a map of Middenheim (in the Game Map funnily enough.)

There very much is an adventure path full of doom interesting encounters but I also know that being in the big city gives you guys more freedom and opportunity than you've had up until now. Feel free to look around and investigate things a little. :)

Added in a list of NPCs to help you guys keep track. I'll add to it as we go!

Sorry for the brief delay guys but I'm waiting to hear back from a posdible fifth player - I'd be happy to press ahead with four but none of the yokels you are playing can read and like all WFRP adventures there are lots of bits of paper floating around in the plot! ;-)

We have a new player! :)

Everyone welcome Player X (not their final name obviously!)

*waves*

Hello Player X and welcome - I hope you have a lot of fun here

Hello Player X! I hope you'll bring wisdom to the uneducated masses currently playing this campaign!
