[zylodrizzt]

Well since my characters are nature based I'll go green

I will be playing a teaching tortle Shepard druid "all life is connected big and small in the cycle of life and death"
https://www.myth-weavers.com/sheets/?id=2856965


And a fierce lioness tabaxi totem barbarian "survival of the fittest"
https://www.myth-weavers.com/sheets/?id=2857249


Also a fearful sparrow owlin swarm ranger "can't kill what you can't catch"
https://www.myth-weavers.com/sheets/?id=2857252

[Lioslaith]

I’ll use this color to speak in.

I did a rogue, a fighter and a barbarian. Still not real sure about the concept but the three will have similar attitudes.

[samduke]

Aewyn Artificer (Artillerist) (https://www.myth-weavers.com/sheets/?id=2853663)
Aewyn Ranger (Gloomstalker) (https://www.myth-weavers.com/sheets/?id=2853664)
Aewyn Rogue (Scout) (https://www.myth-weavers.com/sheets/?id=2853665)

Aewyn will Speak in Blue


@paradox26, Before I post IC, do we pick which one of the 3 we are starting out with?

[paradox26]

Yes, pick one of your characters to start with. You are then stuck in that form until you die, when that character will be replaced by another and will quietly regenerate, so they can be used again later.

[Postmodernist]

Hi, all! I'll choose violet to speak in, since all my characters have a little mischievous magic flair.

[zylodrizzt]

I assume we aren't restrained?

Can we see each other?

[Postmodernist]

And I'm already double posting cause I screwed up a roll!

Ahem.

Grubt will make a perception check to look around the room.

You aren't restrained, and you can see each other on tables to the side of you andf opposite you in the largeish room.

[roll0]
It looks like a pretty typical autopsy and embalming room, with all that that suggests, and nothing except the floating skull out of the ordinary.

[zylodrizzt]

Just realized I never got myself an uncommon item....

[Lioslaith]

Wait, a comment about his mum? I’m lost.

[zylodrizzt]

"Your mother must be so proud"

[Lioslaith]

"Your mother must be so proud"

Ahh, wasnt connecting the dots

[zylodrizzt]

Just realized I never got myself an uncommon item....

Anyone got any suggestions? Also aren't we missing someone?

[Lioslaith]

I couldn't really think of one that would work for all three so I never picked one either.

[samduke]

Anyone got any suggestions? Also aren't we missing someone?

yes we are...

selections for the game will be: Lioslaith, SamDuke, zylodrizzt, PostModernist, and Infernally Clay

has posted ooc & ic
Lioslaith, SamDuke, zylodrizzt, PostModernist

[paradox26]

I will send Infernally Clay a PM to see if they are still interested. Thanks for spotting the absence.

[Infernally Clay]

I'll link these here quickly, but I won't be able to get a post in under later tonight. Nithlaya will just catch up if she needs to, assuming you guys go anywhere before I can post.

Nithlaya, Eloquence Bard (https://www.myth-weavers.com/sheets/?id=2855715)
Nithlaya, Glory Paladin (https://www.myth-weavers.com/sheets/?id=2855713)
Nithlaya, Swashbuckler Rogue (https://www.myth-weavers.com/sheets/?id=2855714)

[paradox26]

Hi everyone. Just to let you know, I got a PM from someone who is just starting this module in another site, and they pointed out to me that there is a line I overlooked. It says that each character gets their own equipment. I am not sure exactly how that works for a personality shift, but these Multiverse Glitches which allow you to have a different character apparently allow for larger changes. So everyone should feel free to select a full set of equipment for each character, including your magic item. I know some people didn't pick an item because they couldn't think of one which would suit all three characters, so now that problem is solved.

[paradox26]

Just to clarify, is the party moving out of this room, or are you still getting organised and want more time?

[Lioslaith]

I assume we are leaving the room.

[zylodrizzt]

Looks like we are moving

[samduke]

moving along for certain

[Postmodernist]

Yeah unless there's more to do, let's proceed.

[zylodrizzt]

Holidays got me slowed up a bit

[paradox26]

No problem.

ALso, Merry Christmas to all who celebrate it.

[Lioslaith]

Initiative roll [roll0]

[zylodrizzt]

[roll0]
1st combat innit

BTW @dm I was planning on my totems being the other 2 in spirit and the 3rd being of course my druids spirit animal if that's ok

[Postmodernist]

Interesting that we're kicking right off with a fight. Initiative roll: [roll0]

[samduke]

Aewyn Initiative:[roll0]

Actions
Attack: mortician
Eldritch Cannon Force Ballista: ranged spell attack [roll1] 120 feet range
Damage:[roll2] force if the target is a creature, it is pushed up to 5 feet away from the cannon which will push the mortician back into the area that we saw it in the first place

Fey Step (DC13) As a bonus action Autumn teleport up to 30 feet to an unoccupied space you can see.
I presume that I can see a space between the mortician / zombie and Glorp who Aewyn was following and is at least within 10ft from them.

Immediately after teleport two creatures within 10 feet Wisdom save or be charmed by Aewyn for 1 minute or until they get damaged.

the 2 targets the mortician/ zombie

Edited
man a lot of 13's
I will post an IC based on information from the above

Yes, that is fine.

[zylodrizzt]

What's the innit order?

[paradox26]

The party as a whole rolled high enough that I will allow you all to go first. In future I will get a single person, whoever posts first, to make the initiative roll.

[samduke]

RE:

Postmodernist with that +3 for now should make the roll then



decayed look of a zombie, is immune to the will attack.


yeah figures mindless

[Postmodernist]

RE:

Yeah, whatever is easiest for the party. PbP can often get bogged down during combat, so I am fully in favor of whatever we think might expedite things.

[zylodrizzt]

Wait are we putting our turns here?

Mortician already dead?

[samduke]

Mortician already dead?

yep he went down fast

[zylodrizzt]

I take it that one of them decided to move (since grubt disengaged) and took the booming blade damage? Also does everyone get thier attack for them leaving our spaces then?

[paradox26]

I thought the creature was standing next to Grubt. Is that not the case?

[zylodrizzt]

He disengaged and moved. You can split up a move.

If there is sufficient space to maneuver, Grubt will use his bonus action to use Cunning Action to disengage and move away from the zombie. He'll then try and taunt it to come after him and activate the rider effect of Booming Blade, and/or provoke an attack of opportunity from Glorp.

[Postmodernist]

He disengaged and moved. You can split up a move.

Correct. I tried to state that if there was nowhere to move, Grubt would stay put, but this is precisely what Grubt was doing. He can move through larger creatures' spaces as a halfling, so it was move, attack, bonus cunning action disengage, move some more, trying to goad the rider effect of booming blade, or otherwise not get hit.

[samduke]

aewyn was at least 10 ft away when she shot with the ballista, and moved to the side so she should still be 10ft away

[Postmodernist]

So, who's up?

[zylodrizzt]

Still waiting to hear about attacks of oppertunity

[samduke]

not even sure if we are in round 2 effectivly

[paradox26]

Still waiting to hear about attacks of oppertunity

Feel free to resolve attacks of opportunity before we continue. If you feel you are in a position to make one then do, I am not too particular about positioning.Then everyone can make their attacks for the next round.

Just to clarify: did the monster moved and take booming blade damage and provoke AOOs, or was Grubt unable to move? Just trying to clarify. Also, Grubt is in pretty bad shape at the moment, health-wise, in case anyone cares to pop a heal. Like, he's at 1 hp.

I'll get you next round and I bet you should roll that booming blade damage

[Postmodernist]

Thanks, I did roll 4 damage in the original attack post, should this situation arise. It just wasn't readily apparent whether or not it had transpired. I love and often prefer theatre of the mind, but it can sometimes get wonky in tactical combat. Thanks for the clarification!

[zylodrizzt]

Think we need a few more players to go.

[samduke]

i went and hurt my wrist a few days ago so even now typing is painful.


Grubt - how hurt are you ?
Cure Wounds on grubt, [roll0]

Sorry to hear about your wrist, hope it isn't too serious. I was down to 1 HP(!), so that heal helped a great deal.

[zylodrizzt]

Think the pc turn is over

[paradox26]

Sorry for being absent for so long, everyone. I had a lot of RL things going on, and have barely been online. I was able to access the forum through my mobile, but I wasn't at my computer where I could access the modules, so I couldn't post. Things should return to normal now.

[samduke]

all good still sore even now, anyways if grubt is still hurt say something IC I think theres some more healing that can be dispensed

[Postmodernist]

Yeah, I definitely will, just intended to wait until after we had dispatched this thing, assuming we even can.

[paradox26]

I am forced to apologise once again for my absence, though this time it was due to the forum instability. It seems to be back to normal now, though, so we can resume normal service.

Who is still with us?

[Lioslaith]

Still here

[samduke]

still here

Grubt
Cure Wounds 2nd time: [roll0]

Still here, glad you're back.

EDIT: And cheers for the heal!

[zylodrizzt]

Here still

[samduke]

i know p26 is still having site issues like the rest of us

[zylodrizzt]

Waiting to find out what the thing is the chest is

[zylodrizzt]

Well I'm dropping

[Postmodernist]

That's discouraging. What's the consensus here? We do seem to have stalled out, right out of the gate.

[zylodrizzt]

Don't think anyone is even checking back here anymore

[Lioslaith]

A few of use are watching

[Palanan]

Hey, folks, I’m posting on behalf of paradox26. Between forum problems and RL issues, he is putting all of his games on hold for now.

He intends to pick up again when he’s in a better place, but no timeframe yet. Please send some good thoughts his way.
