Re: Tests and Trials OOC
Ves will take a watch regardless of who else does since it's her job, but unless it gets dangerous and we decide to double up on the watches that sounds fine

Re: Tests and Trials OOC
Kroshav would certainly be willing to double up with Lurn or Jaq when his non-dark vision has more chance to help.

Re: Tests and Trials OOC
Tonight I have Joe doubling up with Jaq the last watch. If Lurn wants to double up with Ves or Jaq's first watch you can roll me a perception (and when he is doubling up). It was decided while you were asleep so just let me know.

Re: Tests and Trials OOC
Ruby would probably watch over Joe on first watch. Not really helping the others though.

Re: Tests and Trials OOC
Just re-read the first two pages of Tests and Trials again and found a typo in nearly every post I made. Hopefully it's gotten better.
Let me know if I write something incomprehensible.

Re: Tests and Trials OOC
Definitely read Lurns roll as being an 18-1 = 17, so was pretty nervous about a yochlol, and also wondering how he'd be able to tell that's what it was if it was in one of it's forms.
A 2-1 = 1... ok, I'm feeling a bit more confident in my initial guess.

A yochlol would be a 'rocks fall' kind of encounter. You aren't there yet. But Lurn doesn't know that .

Spiders are scarier to Joe than demons. At least with demons you won't find a swarm of them.

But Burns... A single Yochlol could murder all of us with barely a scratch.

Damned school, eating all my time. Too late now to argue for healing the spider and maybe making the ettercaps view us favourably.

Waiting to see what we are doing before dropping more of heal on Joe.
Also...
The BWSTCWDASTAARBICSTTPT Club for short.
I think I'm the current president, but elections are coming up soon.
Also...
Congrats Rodgeir, I don't recall if it happened already, but if not you are now officially a member of the exclusive "Burns Was Sure The Character Was Dead And Started Thinking About A Replacement Before I Could Say That They Pulled Through" Club.Arch Lich Burns wrote: ↑Thu Mar 14, 2019 9:29 am dex [1d20+4] = 4+4 = 8
Welp, it was fun while it lasted. I shouldn't have chanced it since it meant death if I failed, and used inspiration right away but I thought the +4 dex would have helped.
I don't think I can use inspiration in retrospect. So what happens to Ruby? (most important question)

I often think of new characters. Dying speeds the process of actually making it.

Re: Tests and Trials OOC
Yeah, I just finished cooking up a dozen characters for a one shot I'm running next Friday, running games helps feed that urge.
The players are going to randomly draw characters, they'll be playing the pre-gen 4th level characters I've made, but will all be starting with a blank character sheet.
Post shipwreck amnesia has them completely wiped, so they'll have to figure out who and what they are through trail, error and deduction. As they figure things out, they'll be able to fill out their sheets.
Hopefully it's fun!

Re: Tests and Trials OOC
Gonna steal that Spider... been needing some one shot ideas!
BWSTCWDASTAARBICSTTPT, great! I guess? It would have taken a pretty unlucky roll to have killed Joe outright even from 60 ft.

Re: Tests and Trials OOC
Only a 6.08% chance that Joe dies on that fall.
I'll be sure to let your know how it goes, though the setting may be something I recycle for TSW, so probably won't share that right away.
Think I'll give them each a limited resource that they can cash in to 'learn' something about what they can do...
Eg, cash in that chip, "So you're stuck in chains in this wet cell. You think back to that rat that was chewing at the scraps of your food and didn't seem fazed when you rattled your manacles? You got a pretty good look at it, and a part of you feels a kinship towards that rat. The more you think about it, the more you think you could BECOME that rat..."
*Player discovers their character is a druid with the ability to wild- shape.
