Re: Acadie Day 3

Aziz 'Easy' Schmidt Any surveillance team are just observers for someone else. A few goons in a spy van watching movements, daily routines, whom comes and goes. Not necessarily a problem unless they want to sabotage the refurb. But why delay us longer unless they haven't got everything they need. $...

Re: Character Creation

This is specifically aimed at JR and ateno. I've worked up conversions for each of your characters and I think thought I sent them to you via Private Message: (de Francisco as Fighter/Fighter/Wizard and Carsta as 3 Level Cleric). I don't see either message listed, I must have missed sending. I'll ge...

Re: Character Creation

I think I am all set - just going to double-check inventory. Are you using an encumbrance system? Are you making a finished sheets thread?

I plan to use 5e Basic and 5e Hardcore, mostly, but I will be tinkering a bit with things on the edges. I'll post changes and clarifications in this thread.

Re: Character Creation

Sorry Eris, my last week turned very crazy on me. I will try and get my PC wrapped up soon. Hey, I feel the same!

Located on the southern shore of Dragon Lake near where the Dragon River leaves the lake and heads south, Lakeside is a frontier town with thick walls and armed guards walking the parapets. Pirates, and worse, roam the lake while Orcs, Goblins and again worse infest the hills and woods west of the t...

How is everyone doing with their characters?

I'm trying to get some background posts into the forum and want to begin a walking start for the game over the next few days. I feel like we're moving slowly, but believe it or not, we are moving forward. :)

Re: [002] A Temple and a Tomb

Ulfgar Ulfgar moves to the closest door and starts trying keys. OOC: That would be the one leading south out of the "Office" room. Ulfgar goes though two keys before he fits the right one in the lock and he hears a faint click as the key turns in the lock. It sounds like a normal click fo...

The critical rolls I'll be making are really, if whoever set this up thought about adding a jiggle trigger or any sort of amperage draw trigger. If they didn't think of either, then it's likely things will go off without a hitch...likely. :) The box is exposed and the trio in Engineering proceed wi...

There has to be something that allows movement down this hallway. Is there something on the walls or floor which acts as at a "lock" to keep the trap from springing?

Maybe I missed it in the threads, but what do we do about Hit Points? Max at 1st level or roll for all three? When I used the roller, it said my MAX HP is 36. If you use the software I recommended it rolls for all three, but adds in the Con bonus, I think. Which is fine for the beginning characters...
