Re: OOC: Beginning the Game

Glutton for punishment. Senior year, University Honors courses, an Undergraduate thesis, 5 classes... ugh...oh and applications for Master's programs this fall. Sometimes, I wonder if being in my middle years that this is too much...then I get back to reading!

Re: OOC: Beginning the Game

Anyways,

How long are you resting? Anything less than four hours will not be helpful at this point. Are you setting up a watch? Jerinvar is obviously going to be keeping watch during this time.

Re: OOC: Beginning the Game

I think since its just getting to dawn we rest for 6 hours till midday, eat and then travel for another 6 hours before finding a camp site for a good proper nights rest.

How are we approx from the village?

  I see Nin Vinto hasn't logged in for a while, so I guess it's four watches with Aerin on 3rd?

Re: OOC: Beginning the Game

The GM mentioned Aerin being the replacement for Nin, so yes, that seems to confirm your assumption.

Re: OOC: Beginning the Game

Since it has been over a month with no updates or posts from Nin, I have removed him from the game.

I expected a little turnover after a few months, but I generally (not always) give someone a chance to reactivate their interest in games I run. It was a kindness done once for me in a game I loved, so I try to do the same.

Re: OOC: Beginning the Game

To answer a previous question, that is a good question. Who was doing the survival checks and either the knowledge (geography) or profession (cartographer) checks once you emerged from the moon circle? Are you sure you are even going the right way? Half a day's ride is possibly a long way away from your destination.

Re: OOC: Beginning the Game

   Artour's got a Survival modifier of +24 in natural outdoor areas, so no problem there, but no ranks in Knowledge(goegraphy) or (local), although he has a 2nd-level spell (Lore of the Gods) that will give +10 to Knowledge checks, but it only lasts for 1 minute/level if used with Knowledge skills you have no ranks in, and would give a total modifier of +15.

Re: OOC: Beginning the Game

We have a ranger or druid, don't we? The spell 'Lay of the Land' provides a geographic overview of the land in a 50mile radius, including settlements and so on. That should be a great basis for any decisions that need to be made.

Re: OOC: Beginning the Game

Im a Ranger but first time I have heard of it but I have looked it up and like it. :) Will definitely add to my list to prepare at the next rest.

I do have Survival and Knowledge (Geography) enough that if I take 10 we should be ok to navigate.

Then when we rest tonight I will prepare that spell.

Should we be posting our actions or waiting till the surprise round is finished? Just want to make sure before I put up my turn. :)

Re: OOC: Beginning the Game

Sorry about that, I thought what was going on was clear.

New round, Jerinvar and Keryth should, if possible, post first, you all may post if you feel like other actions will not interfere with your own.

Re: OOC: Beginning the Game

Sorry for lack of post.  Worked 48 hours over Wednesday and Thursday...and spent the day preparing for a hurricane (Fiona) that is to hit my province over the next 24+ hours.  Not sure when I'll get a post up...will depend on how much damage the hurricane causes to the local power grid.

Re: OOC: Beginning the Game

Jerinvar intends to use his gaze attack on it.

Gaze (Ex): 35', 1 HD
Evil creatures of the indicated HD (1) or less must succeed on a Will save (DC 22 = 10 + 1/2 Ghaele HD + CHA mod + 4) or die instantly
Those that succeed are affected as by a fear spell for 2d10 rounds.
Nonevil creatures of the indicated HD (1) or less and evil creatures with more than the indicated HD must succeed on a Will save
or suffer the fear effect.

If it is evil and has more than 1 HD, it must make a DC 22 will save or suffer the affects of the fear spell...which would stack with its current shaken state with the extended duration of 10 minutes.

So, on failed save, panicked for 10 minutes.  On a successful save, frightened for 10 minutes.

Also save DC is 24 vs 22, given its current shaken condition.

Re: OOC: Beginning the Game

Sorry again for the lack of a post.  My intended actions are posted if you want to move the group along.

The hurricane hit my area pretty hard...mostly large trees uprooted and fallen over and the damage caused by those fallen trees.

I've spent the last few days aiding other in removing fallen trees from their property.  Am heading to work in the morning for 48 hours...so Friday will be the earliest I'll be able to post.

I hope so but the GM doesn't look like they have been online since the 23rd September. Cross fingers we continue.
