Here is where everything is discussed out of character. Pick your color. First person to post a table with links to character sheets gets a free random rolled item. Couple things about xp. First your la is free and can't be bought off. The template states the vampire scion is a CR+1 and LA+2. Since you are level 3 with the template im gonna treat you as level 4 for xp. With full hp this should balance stuff out. This means to get level 4 you would need 6000 xp and your character is at 3000. If you have any others questions feel free to post.

[Grishnakh]

Well let's give this a try then.

(hope this works...)

Also, I'll take Dark Red for my speech color

[stanleyindraven]

Jub will speak in lime.

[Cravix]

Very well. Ared found an old bottle with a strange liquid. It looks like it hasnt been touched in a while and it is covered in dust. As you wipe away the dust you notice one word on the bottle - Jump.

[Grishnakh]

Guess I'll jump then :smalltongue::smallbiggrin:

[stanleyindraven]

Is there a local chapter of the pelor guys here in Blacksville that we know of?

[dabone]

And as it should I'll take This color

wrapping up my sheet as we speak

[Cravix]

Fine since its your freebe I will let you know its a potion of jump. I rolled random and thats what you got.

[Grishnakh]

I already thought as much :smallsmile:.
No need to tell stuff like that, having some obscure hint about what it does and hoping you are right can be a lot of fun :smallwink:.

Well its your freebee. Its a special case.

[stanleyindraven]

is there a ranged weapon in the house?

[Grishnakh]

yes, me :smallbiggrin:


maybe one or two of us should try to sneak around to them, to make sure they don't just leave and return at noon :smalleek:

[dabone]

I wasthinking about taking a ranged weapon, but it had to be silvered and that means you have a normal crosbow only with some silver bolts (or arrows for a bow) and that means after a few encounters your silvered weapon is gone... So I've chosen a dagger. But I am able to cast missiles made of magic

[Hawkfrost000]

is there a ranged weapon in the house?

Dude, my character and his companion are pretty much very angry homing missiles.

ill post in Indigo

[Cravix]

Were waiting on Darius's initiative.

[stanleyindraven]

Anyone heard from him?

[Grishnakh]

I think he might be waiting for a clear end to the first round (at least I am), before posting actions for the second round.

[Cravix]

Darius has till Sunday to post something or pm me.

[Hawkfrost000]

Were waiting on Darius's initiative.

I already rolled initiative, got an 18 IIRC, and I never said I went out the door. I said I keep the wagon between me and the men, so if at all possible I go out a window. If there is no window then I would not have Von out the door and exposed myself to enemy fire so I can get to cover as that is inherently counterproductive. If there is no window then I exit the house in the other side and move around the downwind corner of the building.

[stanleyindraven]

probably should have posted that instead of the way you did

[Grishnakh]

I think I'm a bit confused now :smallfrown:

What is the situation at the moment and what action still need posting?

[stanleyindraven]

we are awaiting combat thread posting

[Cravix]

i move out of the house keeping the wagon in between me and the men

We are still waiting on you in the combat thread

[dabone]

I think he is waiting untill you post what we see outside..

[stanleyindraven]

i thought that was implied

[Cravix]

I think he is waiting untill you post what we see outside..

Already posted that.

[Hawkfrost000]

he begins to move towards the men keeping the wagon outside in between him and them.

where in that does it say "i expose myself to enemy fire" i am moving in a straight line in the direction of the men while keeping the wagon (and thus cover and a hiding spot) between me and them.


We are still waiting on you in the combat thread



No, I go out a window if there is one.
i have posted in the combat thread, i did so approximately 12 hours ago. i elaborated my previous post. if you need further clarification tell me.

regardless this is my question that remains to be answered:

is there a window i can go through to facilitate the movement described above without getting stuck full of crossbow bolts?

[Hawkfrost000]

sorry for the double post

im going to be away and incommunicado from the 21st to the 26th, sorry for the inconvenience.

They see you go out of the house. You hide behind the wagon and they are trying to shoot you while you are behind the cover of the wagon. You move behind the wagon. You get one more action then the will try and fire at you from behind the wagon.

[Hawkfrost000]

alright :smallsmile:

that wasn't entirely clear, however neither was i so its all cool. :smallwink:

so i assume they've succeeded on their rolls to spot...

anyway, ill us my standard action to cast Enrage Animal on my familiar, then he will stealthily move towards the men (in a route opposite from me, pretty much a pincer attack) while i provide a distraction.

[Hawkfrost000]

sigh, double post

i just though you might need some rolls for my Companion

rolls for companion

Move silently [roll0]

Hide [roll1]

[Cravix]

By the way they are doing d7 damage because its technically a d8 but -1 for the silver. Just a different way of rolling it.

[Hawkfrost000]

ah ok

so i take 1.5 damage, should i round up or down?

[Cravix]

Sorry no spot checks were made. You said you went out the house without stating your sneaking out or make any hide/move silently checks. You can try and make another hide check but there is gonna be a penalty since they already know you are behind the wagon and there really is no where else to go. I say a -5 would be sufficient.

[Cravix]

We will round down for silver damage.

but isnt it the middle of the night?

how do they see me?

[stanleyindraven]

i will wager on magic items or spells or someother form of darkvision, or moonlight

[dabone]

Like darius I will be away for 3 days.

also sorry!

[dabone]

the critical hit and fumble table.. ahhh yeaaahhhhh!

[Cravix]

Arguaments whining and complaints go in this thread. Its hard to keep track of combat this way. I have a combat thread so i can easily keep track of this.

alright, can you answer my immediate questions regarding the combat please? :smallsmile:

DM

[Cravix]

You get one AOP per round. Also for complaints you can refer to my secretary.

[Cravix]

I have considered adding a white dragon to your encounters (considered)

[Hawkfrost000]

Very well.

I have no interest in playing with a DM who responds to legitimate criticism with strong arm threats.

Come on man thats two year old stuff. "play my way or i hurt you" :smallannoyed:

mature, real mature

anyway i quit, have fun

[Cravix]

Sigh guess he has never heard of DM humor. Besides fighting a young white dragon is about your cr and drinking its blood would have given you magical abilities. Well guys what is your feelings. Personally this was a cool game that was soured by an inexperienced player.

[dabone]

I think Darius should decide for himself if he quits or not, but I don't think we should quit the entire campaign... okay it will be a lot harder without our druid..

Maybe start a new campaign with another concept?

[stanleyindraven]

I am fine going forward. We can either continue as we are, recruit another member, or start fresh and try again without darius. My RL group has had players like that, they never seem satisfied. but I am willing to continue

[Grishnakh]

Sure, let's go forward. You could re-open the recruitment thread, adding someone to the group shouldn't be to hard, storywise.
As for the loot and xp: was that 600 each or to devide among us (aka 150), and since I don't have any particular need for any of the items, take what you need and let's put the rest in the 'party pot'.

[dabone]

what do you say, owh mighty DM?

[Cravix]

Well first it would be 600 xp each. We could recruit or another idea for a game is a level 1 game with the core 3 only. I have an adventure path in mind. Im about to go to work and will think on these things.

[stanleyindraven]

That actually doesn't sound like a bad idea.
