"I can be terse.  Once in flight school I was laconic."

Neo is correct--I suppose I hadn't given the jeweler a name yet, but as he might be a recurring character, we'll name him Rollan.

Butterflies.  ;)

Buffed, butterflies most likely!

I hope they aren't buffed with parasitic wasps!

That is horrifying!  What a great idea for a monster.

In reply to Aendyr (msg # 178):

I'll see your nested wasps and raise you an Asian Giant wasp! These things have been discovered right around the border between BC and Washington.

Oh my god, I've heard of those asian giant wasps!  Things of nightmare.

But that parasite wasp Aendyr posted, is like the Alien xenomorph of the butterfly world!

The pet store I was thinking of was "Bird Land," but that's back in the place we came from --  somehow I was forgetting we'd changed location.

What are we waiting on before charging off to murder kobolds?

DM has not logged for 10 days.

She may be dealing with real life issues.

Ah, OK.  Real life does tend to do that from time to time.  The game can wait.

I have been dealing with electricians piecemeal re-wiring my house ... finally getting close to done (they're supposed to come again Monday to work on this one ceiling light in the room where my work desk is, finish outlets in that room, some finishing touches on upstairs, and the lights in the utility room and the outdoor lights.  The worst part being that I was always getting ready for them to come (even on days they didn't), which entailed actually getting dressed for the day (something that WFH generally does not require!).

Now we're missing our humans.  Morveya and Drostan haven't signed on in over two weeks.  NPC them for a while and cross our fingers that they show up?

Sorry for the neglect, folks!   I will be getting posts in tomorrow.  (Jill's other game, as well)

This is the seasonal/holiday slow down, in my case, not loss of interest.

As we move into the TG holiday/weekend, I'll be scarce again.  Pretty good availability the first two weeks of December --  then slower through the year's end.

Welcome back, human.  :)

Single file march order for the tunnel?

2 is preferred if wide enough

Seven feet wide is kind of tight for two across.

Korin is happy to lead unless Aendyr or someone else want to be in front.

Having Neo in front to check for traps and Aendyr behind him might allow for both of us to fire bows if Kobolds appear, since Aendyr could fire over the top of the kuduk.  Korin could then rush to the front.

In reply to Aendyr (msg # 194):

Fine with me.

Neo
Aendyr
Korin

Whoever's in the very back, don't let the Rat Princess sneak up and bite you in the ass.

Are you assuming the rat's gender? ;-)

All right:

Neo
Aendyr
Korin
Qrox
Morveya
Drostan
