Admin, OOC, and Launch Discussion

Did you guys happen to notice the starting date in DT lite? It is about 4 years prior to the current events in Borgh Riac. I know a certain Alijanian that will run though 4 levels before heading back to Jeres.

Lol. Ok I could t post with the avatar and I was like WTH!

I went polearm master and great Weapon Master. I've been wanting to try out that combo for a long time.

If anything he would murder you while you were awake and he could see that surprised "this is really happening... it's all over for me" look replacing the life fading from your eyes.

Nice. That's what Maeriks is on his way to doing.

Ahhh. A Qiu prequel! I can't wait to see The Shield Wrestler himself. Probably will be dragging someone around in the dirt when we first lay eyes on him (Grappled + Prone + 1/2 Movement Special).

Dude. TMI. You do that on your own time, in private. Put it away before you put somebody's eye out.

Playerz Club,

I've got to close it down for the day. Might be back on later tonight, not sure. Might be out of comms for weekend also, not sure on that either. But in any case, weekend pace downshift in effect - no more required action or monitoring.

Hopefully Ez gets Kray through that door soon though, casually or no. Seems like things are getting pretty hectic at the big double door.

Cool play, y'all. Thanks for all the participation in both combat and story-telling.
Is anyone working on getting this screenplay penned out? I really want to see the Dark Thrones movie some day.

All the way up,
J

I needed an NPC roll call for roster of survivors who made it through to the throne room.

Boann: age 24, severely injured, unresponsive, status unknown

Aisling: 18, visibly pregnant, a quiver with only 4 arrows left, small bag of supplies, Rutcranna took her spare shortbow and used it to clear out flesh glob anchors on the walls and ceiling, now the shortbow is on the floor inside near the door
Muirne: 20, visibly pregnant, carries club and supply bag
Sine: 12, carried one of Rhone's bag and another supply bag
(Light supplies: waterskins, bandages, clothes, small tools, blankets, small tarp, etc.)

Laoise: 17, armed with shortbow, arrows
Casidhe: 13, armed with sling and bullets, knife
Doirind: 33, armed with spear and short sword

Rhone: 11, her scroll bag, ritualist bag, and med bag all made it in thanks to Rutcranna and Sine
Rutcranna: MILF, bikini, doing her own thing on supply and carry

Hinka: Tcho-Thief Extraordinaire

Looks like 10 right now, but we'll have to see what happens with Boann.

One quick note, mainly for CB:
Rhone comes over to check status and stabilize Boann. Uses some of her fish meds to stop the bleeding of the sickle wound. Boann is still alive! But unconscious. She has lost a lot of blood. If she can make it out of here, probably will be severely weakened for a day or more, but she could live.

Have to describe the rest of the room and NPC talk/actions at a longer type later. Yes, terrible time for delay, but so it is.

This is it coming up. I think so at least. The Throne Room is where the characters wanted to get to get out of the Black Ziggurat, to move the Great Cube Door and make a run into the Goatswood, rendezvous with the other Tcho-Tcho for evasion.
Big push coming up. For PCs and NPCs, it's Do-or-Die - never a more fitting phrase.

Sorry again. Will catch up asap.

And Ivor's got no net, no trident, and no rage slots haha! Don't worry, this ex-gladiator's still got a couple of tricks up his...wait, he doesn't have sleeves...down his loincloth!

So Ivor is turning tricks now?

Yeah he was a male stripper on the side back in Pylos.

Just got back free, fellas. But intermittently. Will keep trying to send in updates today. A lot of writing to try to paint the picture.

Thanks for bearing with me on the absence and the slow soap-box return. I'll try to get the scene back in flow today/tonight.

Playerz Club,
I have to wrap it up there for the week. I know that was a lot of one-way writing, so definitely send in anything that you guys need or want to talk more about, any questions, any actions that need to be taken, or even actions that should have been taken at earlier moments after the door was closed. This is meant to be a fluid, flexible scene, so we can easily edit or correct on things here and there.

Remember Short Rest is an option, so feel free to adjust stats as appropriate.

Not sure how my weekend availability is. Probably very little; I may be completely out of comms. But we'll see.
As usual, boards are open as desired, but no expectations for weekend gaming.

J

Nice work, J. That's a lot of writing there, lots of threads to address all at once.

Bravo, Ez! Great post, both RP and ooc planning.

Thanks. 5 men enter, 5 men leave. That's the plan, anyway.

What CB said. Good stuff, Ez! :-) Ivor's got no Rage DR to count on so, gonna need those temp HP's too!
