And, new OOC thread is open for replies; feel free to use it as needed.

Ahh, fresh thread.

Mmhm. And I finally managed to sort out my tokens.

I think that was a bit of a haul. Of course, I'm not sure any of it besides the headband is of use, but there we go.

Regarding the granted class feature: I get one use of the ability I claim, right? I don't get it for the whole day?

Question: Ay's told us the donation booth is a 100% random pull from all tokens (except the consort ones), right?  There's no element of choice or chance to complete a set?

Also, Diata-- Woo!  Now we're just missing beehive for advanced contests!  Apparently the book contest had Clover?  So not much pressure to get into the card games?
We also just need a Bridle for the card house games (look out for a chance to wager or trade for that while we're in the card hall), and a helmet for the animal contests (which September would be decent at-- and which might well have a beehive-related thing).

As a matter of fact, if I just post this at the top of the thread and keep it updated...
If anyone knows something not on here, please tell me!

No, it did not; Clover is 19, and I noted before Diata went to rolling that any 19 she rolled would be converted to a Book. I suppose it's an understandable mistake though.


It's boot, like the one that goes on a foot.


You get it for however many times a character of the level you picked would be able to use it. So, for example, if you pick Channel Energy from the Cleric class, you can use it a number of times per day equal to 3 + your CHA mod. You can only use the headband once per day.

Whoops. I thought I'd caught all of those but I appear to have missed one.

As you noted, I had a hundred tokens to file. :)

To clarify here, you could pick a level 2 Paladin's Divine Grace ability, which adds their CHA bonus to all saves, right? And the DC would be 22?

In reply to Iona de Orasaigh (msg # 7):

The DC (Knowledge Religion in this case) would be 24 (20 + LVx2), but yes, you are correct.

Correct. And that would add my CHA bonus to my saves. Which is...+0. :)

I'll do my absolute best not to cheese this wonderful gift.

In reply to Diata Yuari (msg # 9):

I can see why the item went to you ;)

I mean, there's technically no reason why Diata couldn't let another member of the team use the item - she's just the best suited for it because she has the best Knowledge bonuses.

Whoops. Edited.

In my defense, they're both ik-ky. :)

Hi all!

Since it's been two days since my last post in the main thread, I'm a bit surprised at the lack of activity. Is there something any of you need from me that's keeping you from posting? I thought I left enough hooks for everybody, but if that's not the case, just let me know what you need me to do, and I'll provide it.

I hope everything's going fine for everybody; if not, let me know (in PM if preferred) so I can adjust my expectations, and reduce my nagging. Otherwise, I hope I'll be getting some answers from you all soon, and I'll look forward to more posts from you all! ^_^

Some volunteer work in politics has been heavy lately...and today was my birthday.

So yeah, I'll post before Diata goes head-down for a bit. She has an excuse to be taking a break from the adventure and losing valuable active time :)

Politics are always heavy, even when they (pretend they) aren't :P

Happy birthday Diata!

Same here, happy birthday from me as well! ^_^

Diata does has a good excuse to be less active than everybody else, I agree - hence why I'd like an answer from the rest of the team, as well. :)

Sorry, I've been having computer issues - my personal computer is refusing to charge, and posting on my phone or work computer is a lot more annoying.

Apologies, once more. As soonn as I tried to return I managed to get COVID :(

Welcome to our new player, Nar! I'm Banner, a halfling invested with the spirit of a dwarven band of mercenaries.

Attempting to catch up with IC today and tomorrow

We're happy to have you back, Banner - I hope you'll enjoy the opportunities the current situation presents, and look forward to what you can contribute to the ongoing plans! ^_^

Rather than think things through and simply Take 20, I went an rolled Perform (and failed); would you accept a retry, or a retry with a Take 20? Asking ahead of writing up - clearly happy with either ruling, just rusty on the mechanics and gaming it seems!!

I mean, taking 20 would still require you to go through a multitude of tales until you reach a proper one, so it's not overly different from just rolling - unless you happen to have a special ability which lets you treat a roll as a 20 (of the sort Argos showed in his discussion with Diata), in which case you can use it regardless of having rolled already.

If you don't have such an ability, you can go ahead and show Banner being unable to come up with a properly epic tale with a tree as its protagonist.

Thanks for confirming, will write up!

Is this the point where i remind everyone that this means that ability damage, blinded, confused, dazed, dazzled, deafened, diseased, exhausted, fatigued, feebleminded, insanity, nauseated, poisoned, sickened, and stunned are on the table since i can heal those? :P

You're not present at the competition though, and the judge will demand any effect imposed is reversed before handing over the prize. Also, the healer can deal with some of those effects, although not all of them.
