No problem, I understand. Good luck. Post when you can. I'll NPC Niles when necessary.

Everyone will make their own rolls now. Campaign ID is 140 for you to link your characters to the dice roller. May god have mercy on your souls.

Fingal's character sheet says he has 82 GP. Is that correct? If so, he's richer than the rest of the party put together. Just saying.

It is then, after reaching the Keep, that the party realizes their pockets are all empty.



Yes, it would appear Fingal has 82 GP. The initial Fingal gold from the character sheet in the Recruitment thread is 150 Gold, 142.9 spent. I'll sort it out after Fearghus chimes in.

An aside on gold, a night in an inn and three meals a day costs 13 sp, so even the gold you've gotten thus far is a windfall. Much more of course awaits the brave adventurers...

More importantly: what's the going rate for beer?

[Grognardsw]

A pint of beer is 5 cp, perhaps 10 cp for specialty brews. A pint of ale is 1 sp.

Fearghus / Fingal has had real life issues come up necessitating his departure as player (and DM). I'll go by his GP listed in the character creation thread.

I've added some pictures in the Maps & Visuals thread.

What are the rules on firing missile weapons into melee? I can't find anything in the LL PDF directly on topic.

I generally just house rule that if you miss there is a 50% chance you hit someone else, that person rolled randomly.

Happy Thanksgiving!

They will have their revenge...

LET'S PLAY....

Metzner the Advisor looks like a trustworthy guy, he's got a charming smile.

The doppleganger arc began with Selandra's ambush of Albertus in the woods during the assassin bug fight. It was interesting to see PbP dynamics with this. Hemlocks played the doppleganger as Albertus. I'm not sure if anyone thought his behavior or words odd. The seers were a clue. He would have attacked if anyone went in the gnome's tree, but no one did (accept Albertus alone.) He attempted to poison you with the stew, but no one specifically took him up on it despite his posts encouraging so. I needed someone to specifically say they were, and not assume it, as the result could've been dire. Finally it came to an obvious attack at the inn. Did anyone suspect? In face-to-face games this whole type of sequence works better.

[Zhym]

I had no idea. It does seem like the kind of thing that would work better at the gaming table, where a player could really act the role.

The seers were a clue, but I didn't think to follow up on it to see if anyone was acting strange. And on PbP, "strange" is harder to detect than at the table with people you know, I suspect

[NJWilliam]

I thought it was odd that Albertus wasn't pitching in with the healing of Fingal, but since it ended up that Bayard was able to cover it, I ended up not saying anything. I was very close, not sure why I didn't speak up.

[MrHemlocks]

Supplies bought and character sheet updated. Waiting at the Keep gates for the rest of the party. Post you filthy apes

[Grognardsw]

I'll be away and will write up the first round of combat with this beaked, bear-like creature on Tuesday. Hopefully all will have posted their action by then. Thanks.
