But Shadows (ooc and questions Vl)

[Yrkoon]

Seeing how the chamber has many exits, and the barbarians have no light sources, I propose we carry (Kiri and Cruloc have 18+ STR) the unconscious people back to the spore room. We've cleared that already, there are only 2 exits, and it is out of the wind. Once everyone is awake, we need to hunt for food. When I say "hunt", I mean "hunt" as in bow and arrows in the forest. While we are at it, we may as well head back to the fort after we are somewhat healed.

[Urson]

Yes, Zahra is trying to make a secure camp here. It's a lousy place to make a stand, but every time we try to find a better, safe place, we get slammed again. We can't really risk going anywhere else (IMHO, at least).

[Inferno]

Thanks for the quick replies.

One outstanding question remains:

Cruloc
When time permits, he searches the chamber for valuables.

Cruloc, with the wind extinguishing torches, what's your light source for searching, please?

Thanks!

[Yrkoon]

I guess he won't, unless Kiri or Zahra hold a sword over his head.

[Inferno]

Thanks!

Fyi, Kiri remains among the unconscious.

Torix the Pict is conscious, but is also a Barbarian with class restrictions against magic use.

[Yrkoon]

If there are unexplored entrances/exits to this room, we ought not to stay. Let's move the unconscious south to the spore room.

Zahra using a glowing sword to check the exits to this current very windy chamber is not a good idea.

[Inferno]

Hey everyone,
I'll go with the will of the majority and move it along.

Fyi, real life has overtaken Chubby Pixie and he needs to take a hiatus from Unseen Servant.

And a new experience point award is here: viewtopic.php?p=252836#p252836
Scroll down to the bottom of that ever-expanding post. Congrats!

Level up! Torix HP roll [1d10]=5 +1 (Con) +1 (Barbarian) = 7 28 + 7 = 35

[Yrkoon]

Cruloc and Kiri have been through a lot. He will miss the mysterious Easterner.

[Yrkoon]

Level up! Torix HP roll [1d10]=5 +1 (Con) +1 (Barbarian) = 7 28 + 7 = 35

Barbarians get a d12, Jemmus!

[Yrkoon]

Level up! [1d12+6]=3+6=9

Crap roll.

[jemmus]

Level up! Torix HP roll [1d10]=5 +1 (Con) +1 (Barbarian) = 7 28 + 7 = 35

Barbarians get a d12, Jemmus!

Oh, thanks! Watch me roll worse than I did on the d10....
[1d12]=8 +1 Con +1 Barbarian = 10
Came out 3 HP better! (If DM allows the new roll, that is).

[Inferno]

Allowed.

[Yrkoon]

It would seem a majority favour going above to replenish our strength.

It would seem a majority favour going above to replenish our strength.

Hi Yrkoon,
Is that directed at me, or at encouraging the other players toward consensus?

[Yrkoon]

All of the above.

If anyone wants to chime in, they are welcome. Otherwise, with at least 3 of us opting to vamoose, we vamoose.

[ravenn4544]

Majority rules makes sense (even though Amethu won't like it ).

[Inferno]

Otherwise, with at least 3 of us opting to vamoose, we vamoose.

Yesterday, I didn't see three clear votes to leave. Now, with Zahra's latest IC post, I do. Thanks for the clarification, Urson!

(Btw, the PCs aren't facing an imminent threat of starvation. They would know they still have 18 days' rations amongst them, fyi.)

What is the plan please?

Return to the Aquilonian fort on the frontier?

Camp in the forest and hunt? If so, how many days do you plan to spend in the forest? Then what?

Camp in the surface ruins of the Forbidden City to hunt (which was discussed earlier)? If so, for how many days please?

I'm trying to move the action as far key decision points (and the wandering monster dice) will allow. So knowing your plan is helpful and appreciated.


Please feel free to indicate your character's preference in the IC thread. Thanks!

[jemmus]

Uh oh. Do people with rations want to share, so we don't have to do a side trip? We're OK for torches after making some, right?

[Inferno]

Scanning your character sheets, I count 11 torches among you.
