I am heading back into the woods for the weekend. I will be back Sunday night or possibly Monday night. Please feel free to NPC my character. Have a great weekend everyone.

3 means things are pretty well unchanged. The Ul-Mor aren’t offended, but the impact of Bertie and Kallina’s rolls have been diluted.)
didn't realize there was a time limit to this
No worries. This was established at the beginning of the campaign, but we've been running for a while now, and it's easy to lose track. The game has a plot-moving-forward update on scheduled days (typically MWF).

However, I don't mean to be a bear about this. If anyone ever has a reason why you'd like to slow the pace for a bit, just let us know! With just four of us, we can accommodate plumb near anything!

Yells to the Ul-Mor who has her rope end, "It is to get you out of the funnel trap!"
Aha! My idiot brain assumed you were throwing the can to one of the Ul-Mor outside of the funnel trap! This makes a lot more sense!

Are stun grenades sonic based? Assuming the creature senses vibrations I was wondering if a grenade might 'blind' it's senses for a while.

I've been imagining them as something more like an electrical discharge, but it's undefined. If the party wants to decide that stun grenades, stunners, and stun-batons work on a sonic principle, we can carry that forward.

It seems to me from a science point of view they don't have to all work the same way, and in fact probably wouldn't. Modern stun grenades use concussive force (a shock wave basically), which has a sonic element I suppose. The closest thing I can think of for a stunner would be a taser type weapon, which is an electrical pulse. The issue of an area of effect electrical pulse would be damage to electronics as collateral damage.

Hey, I have a quick question before I post my action:

Is Bertie's loper near the back, how close and how big is the hole that is forming? I'm just wondering on the safety of tossing in a stun grenade?

(The only other option I can see is trying to use her psychic powers to urge the loper on)

Mediocre rolls again. Although still not as bad as Rex's 'Drest' character in Ogre Mages Hyperborea game.

I am a bad roller on here for almost all my characters, but Drest is absolutely horrible. Of course I should have known when I rolled his scores and his highest is 14 and he has a 3 Chr.
