Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
As much I would like to make all decisions in character, I also don't want to slow things down.
So, should we:
1. Go deeper with a prisoner in tow after a short rest.
2. Scour this room for any clues, pack these guys that tried to kill us into the boat, take them to town, hand them over to the authorities, possibly get a long rest, then come back to finish things up here."Time is an abstract concept created by carbon-based life-forms to monitor their ongoing decay." - Thunderclese

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
I suspect that this group represented the entire hideout. There may be traps or guardians tied to a location left inside, but otherwise I think it we should be fairly safe to continue exploring. I think its extremely risky having the wizard as a captive. The hobgoblin or that last human are much safer prisoners. Considering how close we are to the town, I think its reasonable to return there after a short rest and questioning these prisoners. After delivering them to the authorities in town, we should return here to finish our exploration.

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
I guess I am a little confuse regarding how many opponents there were and who was doing what.
I see that Sanbalet was casting spells and I think he is currently lying dead on the floor. I think I saved a human leader that didn't cast any spells.
We can always tie their fingers up with twine and gag them to prevent spellcasting."Time is an abstract concept created by carbon-based life-forms to monitor their ongoing decay." - Thunderclese

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
I think Sanbalet is both the human leader and the wizard. There was also a hobgoblin which seemed more like a 2nd in command type (and who surrendered), and there was a human grunt that wanted to flee (and was bullied into staying by the hob, then was defeated by Eldryn's last attack).

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
I suggest that we leave the survivors tied up, and continue the exploration. I am sure if there were any other enemies they would have come to the noise of the fight. I doubt there is much more to explore. And if necessary we can always leave someone behind to guard the prisoners.

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
So, the list of enemies:
Sanbelet - Human Wizard
Hobgoblin - second in command
2 Bandits, 4 Scouts, possibly one or two I forgot? All minions of various races. The last Human did want to run away.
Based on what you've seen, this is a pretty accurate representation. There doesn't seem to be any more humanoids/sentient creatures part of this group, but there may be a few other threats.
You can also confidently keep all of them prisoner as long as you've taken considerations to keep the wizard from spellcasting. Mentioning that in this OOC thread is fine, I'm not gonna pull a surprise escape on you.
Was very busy this past weekend, will read the IC thread next and keep you going.Last edited by CaoimhinTheCape; 2022-04-18 at 08:30 AM.

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
Just a heads up. I am going out of town for the next few days for a funeral. I won't have access to a computer in that time.

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
Thinking we might take a short rest, maybe spend some hit die, then push forward?

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
A short rest would be good for Caspian, he is down to 13 hp.
I like the globe warm...
If you live for people's acceptance you will die from their rejection.
Remember, no matter how hot she is, someone, somewhere is tired of her crap.

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
OK, it sounds like a short rest then? Feel free to roll your dice. If you're not doing anything else during that rest, you can take it safely and just pick up the story from when your rest is done.

Byrok is good on hp, but will recover action surge and second wind.

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
So, to go over the map, you're in a room that can lead back out to the boat/water. Or there's one path that goes further into the complex, which would lead under the house.

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
I think we can push a bit deeper before we head back to town.

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
I am back from my trip. I was busy after I returned, which is why my posts have been delayed so far. Things should settle down from now on though, so I should be able to post regularly again.
I think we should progress further into the complex under the house.

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
Back from my weekend trip. Will be posting normal through the 19th then I'll be away again for a bit.
Also, I'm pretty sure I didn't give you the loot from Sanbalet and the Hobgoblin. Sanbalet has a pipe that seems special, possibly magical. He also has a set of masterfully crafted loaded gaming dice (20 gp). The hobgoblin wears a suit of mariner's armor (scale mail).Avatar by AstralSeal

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
Are we going to do a loot tracker and divy things up later or divide it up now?

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
Yeah that is fine, Caspian wouldn't be interested in the armor for sure.

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
Can we approximate which path is most likely to lead up into the building?

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
Probably the right path, based on how far out the cliff goes and where you entered the cave.

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
Options:
- Go through the door.
- Secure the door so it cannot open and check the other underground rooms first.
I like option 2."Time is an abstract concept created by carbon-based life-forms to monitor their ongoing decay." - Thunderclese

Re: Ghosts of Saltmarsh OOC
I think we should go thoroughly, so I agree that option 2 is the best bet.

I vote for the stairs. I don't like the look of those slimy walls and ceiling.
