Seems like it. I want to use RAW and say you die at 0 hp. At the same time, I'm still unused to the lethality of B/X so it was just as jarring to me, lol. I always feel bad for poor squishy 1st-levels. Just to make sure, are we still okay with such lethality?

@ChrSch and @kwll, sorry for Ezra and Farem. If you create new PCs soon, they can be introduced immediately (so you're not waiting a long time to play again).

Well, it is the third time I am trying to play B2 online, and the second time my first character dies during the first melee combat (this time without landing a single blow), so I cannot say I wasn't warned. That's the reason I rolled a warrior this time (even though luck wasn't on my side with the dice), to at least have a better chance of surviving this time.

Oh well...

This is what OSE RAW looks like. :)

Good points both. Guess I don't have to feel bad >:)

I'm going to be pretty busy between now and Friday with painting my house, and then I'll be in Hawaii for a week (the 20th through the 27th). I'll be slow for now, and unsure if I'll post then

Understood, can we NPC Kraagor or should we wait? I will be away this weekend but that shouldn't slow my posting down.

EDIT: NPCing would probably only happen if you can't post. Slow posts should be alright for a week.

I should be able to post, either infrequently or briefly! Not that we need any detailed posts right now.

That's true, but it looks like the combat is finally swinging (no pun intended) in your favor. Too little too late? We'll see.

Now we're on it! Looks like Del took 1 dmg from that stirge before it died, correct?
Sep 20, 2024 2:25 pm
Correct, so it would have killed him had Morgan done one fewer point of damage against it.
Sep 20, 2024 9:58 pm
Maybe, right? Delfarious has 3/4 left!
Sep 20, 2024 11:53 pm
If a stirge latches on to you (in OSE) it does an automatic 3 points of blood drain damage. Delfarious lost 1 point from the bite, so the next turn would have been instant death.

The stirge that bit Delfarious had 8 hp, so Morgan was safe rolling an 8+1, but it was that close lol.

Oof! Yes, it was! Auto three damage is no joke! (Just ask all these corpses surrounding me...)

Does this offer still stand?
Sep 23, 2024 9:00 pm
Absolutely. You can start rolling in the Character Creation thread.

@Harrigan checking in with mapping. Still a fun minigame?
Sep 25, 2024 3:55 am
Well, there are certainly some details I don't have right in the passage we're currently in...

Close?

Couple of things about the map — not sure where we encountered the rats or the stirges, so I guessed. Also guessed at the location of the door and dark passage we are currently investigating… feel free to provide corrections, DM.

We should also locate where we’ve left our dead fellows… and loot their bodies.

Everything is accurate, but the secret door should be one square below where the stirges are (120' up from the south end of the hall). You can put that the dead PCs fell in the same place that the stirges did. Overall nice mapping; I wouldn't have been able to tell where you were guessing :) .
