Thank you! :D I love gradients, especially overlay ones - easy to make, and to great effect! A nice substitute for backgrounds as well, haha.

Hey there.
As you may have noticed Asunder has dropped from the game without notice.
There was one more person here who showed interest and if you're all okay with that I'll invite them.

Is it Rizzoxiii? Fully recommend him! Best dwarf dialogue I've ever seen.
May 2, 2021 10:27 pm
Yep it's Rizzoxiii. Hehehe cool, so he must play a dwarf :P
May 2, 2021 10:49 pm
Oh no! I hope I'm not pigeonholing him but yes, he's that good 🤩

By all means, more folks are always welcome :)

As it is, is it fairly obvious where everyone is on the river, or is there too much debris to clearly see folks?

I have no issues with adding a new player. :D Hi in advance, Rizzoxiii!

Also, do we all get to keep out equipment via it conveniently washing up besides us? I don't see Melianne carrying all of her supplies on her person to the deck, but... XD

Queni asked me too and I edited it in the original post. Yes you all keep your equipment. Because it washes up with you, you had it on your person or any other way you may think of.

Okay well Solra is still desperately clinging to some floatsam ;-) and unless it just conveniently floats to shore it might be sometime before she gets there

Okay thanks for the option Scrol but I see Solra in need of rescuing, she is currently deathly afraid of falling off her floatsam and drowning -- aka irrational at this point -- I had already updated my character sheet to cover this flaw of hers

OK hafling ranger coming up and aw shucks Queni lol

Hi DeJoker and FlyingSucculent and everyone else

Howdy, Rizzoxiii! Welcome aboard! :D

@Scrol: So, would it be feasible then to fashion some sort of lifeline out of a cooking pot and some rope to fish Solra out of the drink, and if so, Athletics to chuck it and reel her in? Sorry. Still getting a feel for 5e mechanically, so apologies if that's a silly question :p

@DeJoker: I'd imagine Raskell knows, but is she so irrational about her fear of drowning that she wouldn't even risk grabbing hold if he could? I can't see him leaving someone -- anyone -- stranded out in the river unless there was no other real alternative, but also don't want to leave the party short if combat's about to become a thing and he knows Solra's either going to have to muster through or float there for a spell until the group can assist her in getting back to shore.

Super interested in how the Solra dilemma gets solved!

Depending on how Rizzoxiii feels, that might be a good introduction for his character to help out then the group can deal with whatever's being a pest to Rada if we can be a little handwavey with the timing.

Not sure that Raskel knows as they have never had never been on a boat before and why speak of a fear you yourself are not fully aware of. Yes she was hesitant to board the ship and has been irritable ever since boarding but I am not sure they had time to discuss why -- I am willing to work that out with you but so far that is how I see it having come to be.

As for irrationality well right now her fear is if she lets go of that floatsam she is going to drown and even if that floatsam was in shallow water she would not be aware as her eyes are tightly closed as she continuously prays for help.

I concur this might be a good seque for Rizzoxiii character as if they can swim they could use and push that floatsam to shore.

Well if Rizzoxiii is ready to rescue Solra this won't be necessary.
One of my teachers me once said there are no silly question, only stupid answers, so ask away if you need clarification ^^
In general you can assume that actions that should easily succeed don't need a roll.
Difficult actions and/or action under pressure of time usually need one.
If you are in doubt just attach a roll of a kind that you deem appropriate.
If it's not necessary I'll ignore it and if it's the wrong one I'll take the appropriate modifier from your char sheet.

That's good to know. I wanted to ask you if you have any specific thing in mind in regard to what happened to your character.
I'll pause for a beat to allow Rizzoxiii to finish his character

Roger-dodger there, Scrol. And I'm all for our new halfling pal saving our shipwrecked cleric. It'd make a neat intro, in my opinion 😄

I'll take it as Raskell just can't spy her in all the commotion, and slap a post out once I finish my rounds at work.

Kadeton, I like the way you structured the actions and track the stats. I'll be stealing it from now on, thanks! It's so much easier to read.
May 7, 2021 1:19 pm
Yeah, feel free! If I could remember who I stole it from I'd give them the credit. ;)
May 7, 2021 8:33 pm
It is a nice way to track actions indeed! I guess we're unanimously switching to it. XD

I'm not sure how we're dealing with bardic inspiration, especially seeing as I usually post after everyone. I think I'll just declare its target in advance for next turns? PbP probably doesn't work well for it.
