Out of Character (OOC)

I've just changed the last part of the Guong Estate post because I want to pick up the pace.
Quote:
...this man is not a lamplighter at all; Rong Hua spots a tattoo on the back of the man's hand, in the shape of a black lotus. The mark of Zhao Xun, the assassin. The man scales the wall like a spider and vaults into the courtyard opposite Rong Hua. Flashing her a sly smile, Zhao Xun races into the noble's house.

The remaining human sentry sends the two crab-men after Wu Meng, then reaches for a whistle to raise the alarm.

What do you do, Wu Meng?

Rong Hua, do you go after Zhao Xun, or go to Wu Meng's aid?
I won't make a habit of making belated edits like this. I just want these intro action scenes to really pick up.

No prob! Btw don't think I've rolled higher than a 7 yet. Ah well, it'll all average out soon.

Horrible rolls notwithstanding, the cockroach trio survived their first battle! Congrats!

But Xian killed your only lead in this mystery! XD

Working on a cake over the next 22hrs. No post from me today. Will move us forward tomorrow. Thanks!

What roll does hua have to make to attack?
Jun 29, 2019 5:44 am
Depends on how you want to attack. Describe it. You'll find the basic moves here.

Best of luck to Vorn, who said on Discord that he will be inactive over the next four days while he is busy with exams.

I don't want to put the game on hold for that long, so unless there are objections I'd like Bedzone to run Rong Hua. I think that setup makes the most sense.
Jun 30, 2019 3:19 pm
I can do that till Vorn comes back. Will try to keep her alive!
Jun 30, 2019 4:54 pm
No problems here

@Jabes, I don't have Rong Hua's PC sheet and stats to do her rolls for Vorn :)
Jul 2, 2019 4:28 am
Sorry, rookie GM forgot to request that everyone set their character sheets to be view-able by fellow players.

Reposting here for Squadfather, who is not on Discord:

I've reached out to Vorn369 and he says he'll catch up as soon as possible (and I hope keep up moving forward). :-)

Rong Hua, this is basically where you left off: https://gamersplane.com/forums/thread/12577/?p=577913#p577913
I need you to name your criminal contact and the legitimate occupation they use as a front for criminal activity. That's where you and Meng are headed next.

How do you intend to find Meng and Rong Hua? You knew they were headed for the Guong Estate, but also know, based on what you heard, that they're now probably lying low somewhere. Does your group have an established rendezvous point for such a situation?
somebox says:
Brainstorming rendezvous locations, how about a small shop Feng used to manage when she was a merchant?
Good idea to have an actual local base. Based on the character creation and roleplay so far, it sounds like Xian and Rong Hua are more or less local, while the rest are more the wandering type, at least were until the group got together.

I think the shop sounds fine. Iko would not have any local properties, as this is his first time in the city.

Alrighty then, shop-base it is.

Please pardon my absence. I have been having migraines again. Daily for a week straight now. Consequently, a drastic reduction in screen time has been prescribed. I will have to think about how to mitigate this development's impact on my gaming. Thank you for your understanding.

Hey don't worry about the game, we're all ok here, you take care of yourself first
Jul 29, 2019 6:25 am
Okay, so I went five whole days of not looking at my phone except for important work stuff. Also let my partner do all the computer-related work. Guess what, migraines went away. Now, I know I'm not going to be migraine-free forever (I've lived with them for over 30 years) but it looks like if I don't want to suffer every single day, I will have to extremely limit my screen time.

Don't worry, this game will continue, albeit at slower posting frequency. More frequent is healthier for the game, but unhealthy for me. I'll try to find a good compromise.

Thank you all for understanding!

I hope to have a new in-character post up tonight.

Hey Jabes, health comes first, so if you need to let go of some games, don't be afraid to say so. We understand, and appreciate your running a game in the first place.
