New OOC Thread, the other one went crazy

[Leslie]

That's cause people just changed the subject and were not really using the ooc thread

Sent from my iPhone

[Bob G.]

I didn't know it mattered...

[rpgamer]

Are the doors to the other rooms opened or closed? Especially the one
with the screams ...

[Leslie Lock]

In the email it doesn't seem to, but in the threads it gets really
weird.

Tech for Shyam

Invoking Devil's Sight. Ability to see in darkness, both natural and
magical.

[Michael Briggs]

For the time being, I can't place any tokens on the Dundjinni Maps.  I'm currently working with the makers to get an update that will allow me to fix this problem.  We are playing with only the map as a reference point.  I'll email when this has been corrected.

[rpgamer]

If you send me the token images, I will place them for you on the
image, then send it back to you.

[rpgamer]

Any reveals for Karchok or Angel's darkvision?

[Michael Briggs]

They are unable to pierce the darkness.  

[Andrew Airmet]

I feel like I missed something.  Where is the darkness?

[Andrew Airmet]

Nm, just found it.

[Leslie]

What about Shyam?

Sent from my iPhone

[Michael Briggs]

I posted that she could see inside.  It is in the last post.

[Michael New]

So to be clear, the first room (shown in the map) is dimly lit, while the second is preternaturally dark?

Saw that after I posted, sorry.

[Leslie Lock]

From what she does see, is it the same room in her vision? Do we
still hear crying and screaming?

[Russ]

  Karchok tech:
  move: 30 feet
  Cast Bull's Strength; close by Animal companion shares the spell

[rpgamer]

Will post for Angel today ... sorry for the delay

[Leslie Lock]

Couple questions, is this the same demon Shyam saw in the vision?
Also, did it just appear or was it hiding behind something?

[Michael Briggs]

This is the same demon and it appeared as though it teleported.

[Bob G.]

So much for stealth when someone starts talking to you... ;)

[rpgamer]

With the partial clearing of the darkness, can we get a general sense
of the room's dimensions?

[Andrew Airmet]

Can those standing outside of the room, like Tempus, see into the room now?

[Erek]

So Shyam is the only one that can see the demon in the next room (and
even know there is a second room), cause the darkness still covers
that area, correct?

[Leslie Lock]

It was also more likely that the demon knew we were there already (as
Shyam stated after her vision) and could easily see in the magical
darkness.

[Andrew Airmet]

Did the everburning torch help dispel the darkness?  How much of the room is lit/dark?  I'm confused as to what exactly is lit at the moment.

[Michael Briggs]

The everburning torch will allow you to see 20' from your location, but you are currently standing in the lit area.

[Michael New]

It was Angel's dispel magic...

[rpgamer]

Mike,

If you are still having map issues with the char icons, just send them
to me and I'll place them on the map.

[rpgamer]

Angel remembers a time not long ago when Cal'Shir was becoming a good
recruit for his church. He would have made a great compliment to the
mission of the faithful. MAWAHAHAHAH! ;-)

[Leslie]

Lol, always the recruiter.

For my own benefit, Rashear was the one who left right after we found the kids saying he was done after getting his reward right?

Or was he one that disappeared during the dragon fight?

Sent from my iPhone

[Andrew Airmet]

The one that fled during the dragon fight was LockedOn.

The one that left after we found the kids was...erm...I should know.  I was playing the guy.  :D

[Bob G.]

He was the one who left after Tarlman said kill Shyam if she turns.

[Michael Briggs]

He stayed behind to watch over the remnants of Maidenshire.  He was the one Synxol saw with Tarlman.

[Michael Briggs]

Tarlman never commanded to kill Shyam if she returned.  He only said that she should be destroyed, if she turned, to prevent the loss of life.

[rpgamer]

I had thought by the map that the carpet pulled by Tempus had the
pulpit with the demon on it?

[Bob G.]

I didn't say he commanded it.

[Michael Briggs]

We are waiting on Don's post for a second.  I'll send an OOC when its time to post the next round.

[Don Alley]

in a sec... srry!

[Michael Briggs]

Next round's actions.

[Michael New]

I'm traveling today, so I may not be able to post for several hours...

Smithy will be attacking with his sword if he can...

Deathwatch

The description doesn't say anything about line of sight, but of
course Angel would need to have at least line of effect. So although
he can't see the demon, he should be able to discern condition of all
creatures within spell range.

[Andrew Airmet]

Going to simply stay with my last action for Tempus: standing up, retrieving his weapon, and his shield.  Leaving the torch on the floor still.

[Erek]

I'm not sure what is going on with the 'A Lost Temple' thread - are
people changing the subject to OOC2.1? And why are people not posting
in chronological order? Is there any chance we could change this so
the thread makes sense again?

[Russ]

doubtful

[Jbizzle]

Now why would we want to do that :)

[Leslie Lock]

The mess with the threads is when people reply via email to a IC post
with an OOC post and change the subject lines. So yes people are
changing the subject. I guess if your only replying via emails then
it's not a problem since you don't see it. It's only when you post
via the group site and the Discussion threads that you see all the
crazy stuff.

the out of sequence happens when one replies to specific post even
though someone else may have already replied to it.

And Ghost and Scar were caught in the blast.

Synxol 14 

Quentin 43 

Tempus 93 

Ghost 35 

Karchok 25 

Shyam 39 

Keryth 26 

Kethril 100 

Mysterious Creature ?

Angel 59 

Cal'Shir 59 

Scar 14 

Rashear 68

[Erek]

Did my spell go off? Also wondering what sort of magic hit us (fire,
energy, etc...), and if anyone has a clue where the demon is? Mike
are you using the myth-weavers site of my char sheet, or the one you
sent me in herolab?

[Michael New]

Also, where did the blast come from?  Did we see its source?

_______________________________

[Bob G.]

FYI, I haven't posted a move for Cal'Shir because I've been waiting for
answers to these questions. What did we see and where did we see it? :)

[rpgamer]

Will be out most likely without internet through Monday, May 30, 2011,
Memorial Day.

NPC Angel, unless attacked, will probably try dispelling darkness
again.

[Michael Briggs]

Only Shyam is aware of the creatures location.  The seed is small and no one made the perception check to see it.

[Leslie Lock]

Was there an email sent to me describing where/what she saw? I know
you sent me the IM that she made the perception check, just not what
was in it.

[Michael Briggs]

Shyam knows where the creature is floating approximately 15 feet in the air on the left side of the room.  She is also very aware that as long as the group remains bunched up, the creature will be able to take them a part with area effect magic.  I have been diagnosed with strep, so I have been very sporadic.  You should see a post out by the end of tomorrow if everyone has their posts in.

[Russ]

...and i realize i forgot to put my mana in both of my tech reports.  grrr...

lol

[Don Alley]

Do earth elementals have tremor-sense or something? Maybe we can use this thing to help pinpoint that bastard.  =)

D

[Russ]

they might, but i think the demon is floating. of course, only shyam knows that and which darkness bubble it is hiding in, lol

[Jbizzle]

Well crap I was going to see if my new 'scent' ability could help us
out in this battle. There goes that plan

Synxol 0 

[Michael Briggs]

Done with Leslie in convo.  

All can post now!

[Michael Briggs]

Except Shyam.  She is resting after her tantrum.

[Russ]

tech thread isn't necessary outside of combat, correct?

[Andrew Airmet]

Did the two ever burning torches survive the blast?

[Michael Briggs]

No.  They were consumed in the almighty fire blast of the one you can now call your god.  Think of the possibilities.

[Andrew Airmet]

Tempus was worshiping her long before she was a god...wait..did I just post that?

[Andrew Airmet]

Doing a survival check at +13 to go find some food.

[Leslie Lock]

Mike,

Does Shyam realize she was 'compelled' to enter the temple before the
scouting was finished? Also, if there was no actual child, can she
determine what was different between the vision she saw of the child
versus a real one?

[Michael Briggs]

She wasn't the only one who saw the vision, but it was similiar to her other visions.

[Jbizzle]

Just need to know what I brought back, for food... I'll post as soon
as I know. Of course, Shyam's visions are always fraught with so much
danger, as for the worship thing.... nahhhhh, that kinda thing leads
to swollen ego's a whole church having to be built, that just sounds
like too much effort :)

[Leslie Lock]

The others that had visions do know they did right?

When I read the post over, it was explained that Shyam was having a
vision, but no mention of the others, just that they were compelled to
rush in.

[Bob G.]

Testing, testing...

Two days, no emails in this group...is this still working...

[Michael Briggs]

Sorry, I was traveling to a wedding and back.  I'm always watching, but only put in a post when the group needs information or direction.  

[James Kolasinski]

Angel will express his anger in a post later today, heal before the kill, mawahahahah! Demon shmeemon!

[Andrew Airmet]

Tempus is still being grumpy in the woods.  Is it dark yet?

[Jbizzle]

Sorry I had a bachelors' party to go too this weekend.

Sorry here too, weekends are never good for me, summer weekends are even worse.

[Michael Briggs]

I'm waiting on posts and a group decision on the next action before posting forward.

[rpgamer]

I'm unclear what Angel saw at the end just before the blast. Did he
hear and see everything between Shyam and the Demon? the contract
signing, et.al. to save the group? what the contract stated?


Angel's intent is to camp for the night here to heal party members,
rest, then move on in the morning.


What is the condition of the others and himself? He would have
determined that before different ones started to wander off. Hp
status?

Do you want me to keep a mana count?

[Leslie Lock]

It was my understanding from Mike, that only Shyam is aware of the
demon's "mwhahaha" and signing of the contract. Time had stopped for
the others. They only saw her send a blast that destroyed the small
demon and the temple coming down around them and then the red
'shield'.

[Leslie Lock]

FYI: Shyam has fast healing which she would have invoked as soon as
she was awake.

[James Kolasinski]

I'll have to get individual hp assessments and overall health picture from mike then before I can detail Angel healing actions.

[Andrew Airmet]

Tempus will be scavenging for edible plants at the moment.  The other hunter is probably going to get some meat.

[Leslie Lock]

MIke, I sent you a message yesterday about attempting to slap Angel,
not sure if you need a roll or not.

[Michael Briggs]

I don't think there will be any issue slapping the priest.  Personally, I'm loving the roleplaying.

[rpgamer]

Oh, Mike, you're such a voyeur. You just knew Angel was into spanking,
but usually he's on the giving side. lolol

[Andrew Airmet]

Were there any results from Tempus' Survival check, or did he get lost in the woods? :)

[Michael Briggs]

Did you post a roll, or are you waiting for me to roll for you?  This is an active roll.  If it is for direction, you can find your way back according to my roll.  If you are hunting, you catch a few rabbits to feed about 3 people.

[Leslie Lock]

Shyam will use two charges each on them to at least get rid of some of
their injuries. Not sure how badly they are injured though.

[Leslie Lock]

I found this from an earlier post, not sure what other healing had
been done, since obviously Synxol isn't at 0.

Synxol 0

Tempus 93
Ghost 35
Karchok 25
Shyam 39
Keryth 26
Kethril 100

Invisible still has tracks.  Might want to change direction on that.

[Russ]

Cure Mod. Wounds: 2d8+8
cast three times total, current mana: 14/38
healing for Scar, Tempus Ghost and Karchok
totals: Scar (+12hp), Tempus (+16hp), Ghost and Karchok (+19hps each; Share Spell)

[Russ]

  James, BTW, love how you are playing Angel.  Don't take the abuse he gets as a slight towards you, not that I think you would, but gamers can be a strangely wired breed :)

[Don Alley]

I agree! Angel is a real bastard! Kudos to your RPing.  =)

[James Kolasinski]

(weeping) You're hurting Angel's feelings, baaaaa. He's need's some loving and a home cooked meal. Maybe some wolf and lizard stew to start. ... Hmmm, much better, thanks.

 

OOC: Yeah it's a balance of character development and not getting killed by the group. That harkens to my earlier days in 81-82, when I slipped up and got hung by the party.

[Russ]

yeah... go cuddle with the worg

[Russ]

lol, we won't hang him. Maybe set him on fire a little.  Just a little.  It will be like his own personal Fire Plane, come to say " 'Ello!"

[Michael New]

Korith?  And the other names are Kestril, Quinton, Shyla and Tempest?  :-)

Now Diedra isn't all that evil - if she were, should would have cut off the arms and legs first, and left the head for last.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

There are five people standing outside of the church arguing about how they are going to proceed.  

A man in silver colored armor with bands of yellow and a rose on the breast plate matching the color of the bands seems to be the angriest.  "What do you think could have done this?  Demons don't have this much power!"  His young, clean-shaved face is contorted in rage and his black eyes match his hair.  

"Settle down, Korith.  You are going to let everything in these woods know we are here.  We are getting close." The woman who replies wears robes and speaks very articulately.  She also bears the symbol of a yellow rose on her wardrobe.  

The others; a man with a great sword about his back wearing leather armor, a woman with arcane etchings about her robes and a book saddled on her hip, and a man with the look of a ranger all stand close, annoyed looking.

*****

Diedra snuffs Angel's appraoch with harsh words, "No man is getting near me.  Father would kill him."  She levels the warning very directly at the cleric.  "However, you are more interesting than the others.  Well... Except the girl."  She carves the arms off the statue next with a look of glee at her work.

[rpgamer]

my thoughts exactly, ... (Now Diedra isn't all that evil - if she

were, should would have cut off the arms and legs first, and left the

head for last.)

Clarification? It was my understanding that only Shyam knows about
Diedra being a 'pet' of Salazar, that worg hearts are involved somehow?
